APPEARANCE & PERSONALITY
APPEARANCE Considerably large by Pixie Faye standards, Mori is 4'5" in height and important to note that she is not a Pygmy Pixie (meaning those really small Tinkerbell types), although still a feather-weight comparatively. Upon observation, Mori has pale, almost sickly skin, glowing yellow eyes, and bleached white hair. Her attire is usually basic in the form of an aged dress with nothing really covering her feet.
She has clearly undergone some advanced prosthetic work and for even the most basic of perceptive people will be able to roughly figure out why. Mori's left side has experienced tremendous damage at some point. Mori's left arm, from about the bottom of her bicep, is missing and has been replaced with a robotic limb. Her left wingset (both superior-primary and inferior-auxiliary) have been severely damaged to the point of being mostly replaced by synthetic parts. The right-side wingset maintains her natural, biological webbing but the spine has been fortified with a similar looking artificial material. At the base of her wings, on her back, is a central core that provides a generation of power, storage of Corrupted Dust, and auxiliary boosters for increased flight speed. Finally the right-side antennae has also been replaced by an artificial replacement.
The final note of Mori's appearance is that of a filter mask that covers half of her face. Worn nearly all the time, Mori will keep the mask on her for her own health. Her voice, naturally, is considerably raspy as if sick with a bad flu but with the mask, it sounds monotone and almost sinister.

BACKSTORY & MOTIVATION Shortly before Mori's birth, the raid on Mythics in Greece had caused all communities to consider their safety. Some communities decided to take their chances and remain isolated while others decided to go where they were safest. If it were not for the conservatism in Mori's community, there was a chance Mori might not be born as their parents had met that night of initial discussions.
Moving on to Mori's post-birth, she lived in quiet isolation within a small population, under twenty individuals, of Mythics in Eastern Canada and shortly after her birth, there were continued talks of the community attempting to move to Sanctum to ensure their protection. The concern of the minority in an already small population of Mythics went ignored and the community lived in peace for a few more decades.
Not all things last and eventually the peace that Mori's community had experienced came to an abrupt end when a mysterious organization raided the community. This event was almost entirely isolated from any related event and identification and motive of the opposing party is still unclear. Whoever they were, almost all of the Mythics were causalities save for one, Mori.
Mori's survival came at a the cost of sustaining severe injuries and while it may have been possible for Mori to find restorative magics, she opted for a different route. With revenge still circling in her mind, she wanted power and offered an inside deal with pioneering foundation, the Horizon Frontier. The foundation would receive a specimen to study and Mori would hopefully be provided the improvements she needed to become a real threat.
Of course it was certainly a dangerous thing to basically sign yourself over and experimentation on Mori's physiology and magical properties had resulted in a drastic change in her condition. One of the subjects of study concerning Mori was the research on the natural Pixie Dust, a product of Mythic Mana and through more accidental experimentation the scientists created the anti-thesis to Pixie Dust, Corrupted Dust. As Faye are more associated with Life than Death, this changed had noticeable adverse effects on Mori. Regardless, they pursued this research for a time, even crafted and provided Mori the specific artificial parts and upgrades to those parts with the Corrupted Dust in mind. Whether the Horizon Frontier gained a lot from their study of Mori or not, they did, in fact, release her on the condition that they she offer her abilities for testing. Without much choice in the matter, Mori was tested against Mercenary groups and Nomads for a time.
Eventually Mori's lust for revenge would drive her to break her ties and disobey any further directive from the Horizion Frontier, possibly creating an enemy out of them but she considered her revenge more important. She turned to Sanctum to offer her protection while she continued to search for the identity of her attackers. Thus Mori's life would turn to that of becoming a Nomad as she was added to the ranks of the few quasi-independent Mythics.
FIGHTING STYLE & ABILITIES
FIGHTING STYLE Mori's fighting style is set in stages, roughly, and regardless of stage, she will always try to maintain flight even if she is just hovering above the ground. With the first stage she usually resorts to uncoordinated, brute force with her robotic parts, namely her arm, being the forefront of her attacks with her Mythic strength being rather secondary. The first stage is mainly a skirmishing phase and while brutish, she is reserved enough to always consider a way out of an early engagement. After all, she needs to buy time to power-up her unique abilities.
The second stage of Mori's fighting style adds the addition of utilizing her unique mechanic, Corrupted Dust. As a Mythic Faye, she is capable of generating Pixie Dust at will but due to alterations to her Ki/Mythic being, she generates a sort of polarized opposite of Pixie Dust. Pixie Dust is a substance that is more for healing and buffs while Corrupted Dust is more poisonous and debuffs.
Dust is naturally generated by the Mythic Faye with a semi-conscious effort on their end, like flipping a switch. The Dust is generated throughout her body by non-physiologic means, meaning the Dust isn't apart of her, more of a magical process of generation. The passive process consumes Mana over time and therefore is best switched on when the need arises, in Mori's case combat. This Corrupted Dust is then consumed by Mori in to perform a variety of unique abilities. Corrupted Dust can be used immediately for lesser effect or stored for greater effect. For example, Mori's arm and wings will store Corrupted Dust to provide the more powerful tools in her arsenal.
SPECIAL MOVES & TECHNIQUES ■ [Phase Shield][More of a tech power, Phase Shield will use the technology in Mori's arm to generate a standard circular energy shield to protect her from attacks. Drawing from electrical energy, the Phase Shield will eventually drain its battery if damage or time exceeds the stored limit. Time must be then taken to recharge said battery.]
■ [Jet Sweep][Using some of the stored dust, Mori will supercharge her wings and auxiliary boosters to increase her flight speed. In an attack form, Mori found it best to charge towards a target and then use her Phase Shield as solid-point ram.]
■ [Acid Bomb][Using her right hand, Mori will clench her hand into a fist and allow Dust to collect and transform into an acidic ball. The ball will then be tossed at Mori's target of choosing and upon impact, acid will attempt to melt the substance it hits. The process of creating an Acid Bomb takes a few moments of storing Dust but the longer Mori contains the Bomb, the stronger and higher amount of the acid released will occur.]
■ [Toxic Slash][Using her right hand, poison is secreted from under her fingernails and then applied when she slashes a target inflicting them with type of neurotoxin. Targets may feel any of the following symptoms: problems with memory, coordination, reaction, sleep, and thinking with the possibility of feeling depressed, confused, and fatigued. This is an ability that consumes generated Dust immediately.]
■ [Flash][Using her wings and some stored Corrupted Dust, Mori will channel that Dust up her into her wings and then consume that Dust to form a phosphorescent flash, capable of momentarily blinding and stunning opponents who directly see the flash.]
■ [Awakening of the Deadwood][As Mori engages in combat, her Corrupted Dust accumulates on the battlefield. This Dust can then be utilized as "seeds" to suddenly grow dying plant material, dying trees, vines, barbed plants, etc. Magical in nature, Mori will have some form of control over the movement those summoned plants before they wither away after a few minutes.]
SUPER MOVES ■ [Death and Decay][Upon Mori's conscious decision to use this ability, she will briefly be able to generate a massive amount of Corrupted Dust on the condition that is out of her control. The generated dust will always cause a withering effect upon contact with any ki entity, draining their ki at a moderate rate while they are in the field. Upon full drainage of ki, or if the user does not possess ki, a moderate rate of body destruction occurs. The Corrupted Dust bursts forth in a random but usually spherical area around Mori's position. This maneuver will greatly tax her Mana and therefore affect her Dust generation, slowing it until Mori has time to recover.]
■ [Dust Cannon][Stored Corrupted Dust is electrolyzed in Mori's robotic hand and then fired from the palm in a continuous beam, depleting all stored Dust within the arm. The diameter and power of the beam is dependent upon how much Dust is stored prior to firing.]
WEAKNESSES & LIMITS Allergic to her own Corrupted Dust, Mori will always feel slight skin irritation from any Dust she comes into contact with but it is imperative for her to keep her mask to protect from inhalation. Inhalation of minimal levels of dust will cause a coughing fit while prolonged exposure to her own dust will result in more serious health complications (If one were crafty and observant, they can use Mori's own Corrupted Dust against her). Furthermore, the limitation within her power is consumption of Dust to power the more creative and powerful moveset of Mori. She can only produce so much dust in any given moment and accumulation of that material is necessary for her attacks to have potency. Spacing out her special attacks is preferable to rushing them.
