I'm just an average dude who loves to write and is obsessed with Persona 5 at the moment.
It's been a very long time since I've involved myself in any online communities outside of my usual social media's. As such, I'd prefer to keep my private details hidden and be known as Ryuji on this forum.
While I'm technically not new to roleplaying, it has been a very long time since I've participated in the hobby. Please forgive me if it takes me some time to adjust.
Friends warming themselves by the fire was a common sight to behold in these woods. Often the tales of strange creatures found the ears of eager youngsters who would then spend a merry evening gallivanting throughout the forest in hopes of finding said fantasies. Oh, how Kellen enjoyed playing with them for those few blissful hours before sending them on their way. Though this group seemed different than the others; they appeared quite tired and downtrodden; perhaps they were fleeing from something? Kellen's thoughts drifted back to the men who had surrounded him on the path.
Dazed in thought, Kellen wasn't aware of how exposed her was. He attempted to shuffle back behind the shrubbery, but the young Elf had caught wind of him. She spoke in a tongue that was familiar to him, even though he could not speak it himself. Regardless, she seemed to be offering sanctuary to the Fey.
Emerging from the woods as cautiously as he had moved whilst within them, Kellen approached the fire without a sound. Crouching down by the flame, Kellen tucked his feathered knees up his chest and hugged them tight. He offered a curt nod and a warm smile to the Elf, awaiting for her to address him once more before speaking.
Appearance | Standing at a meager 5'3" with a very thin, lithe figure, Gwyn does not give off the aura of a fearsome Grimm Huntress like her peers. In fact her low muscle tone and pale complexion are all indicative of someone who doesn't spend a whole lot of time outdoors. Her features are bright and expressive, with warm amber eyes and a pearly white smile. Her rosy cheeks are plump, giving her face a child-like softness to them. Her hair is a very light shade of blonde, bordering on white, and is kept at shoulders length.
Even her 'battle' attire doesn't give off the impression that Gwyn is someone well versed in the art of the hunt. Choosing to wear a white sundress with sky blue ribbons, accompanied by a thigh high pair of white stockings and black dress shoes. Overall, Gwyn's appearance is very naive and childish. The only oddity in her appearance is the strange rust colored contraption that is strapped to her right thigh just above the ribbon.
Personality | Bright and bubbly as you'd expect her to be, Gwyn prides herself in being a pure ray of sunshine with a naive charm about her. Though her optimism might come off as a bit obnoxious, it's hard to not find something contagious in her toothy grin and beaming eyes. She very much marches to the beat of her own drum, which can make it hard for her to relate to other people and form meaningful relationships. Though for the most part, she is very friendly to others and can even be a bit nosy when trying to help out her friends personal problems.
Unfortunately, Gwyn is known for being a quiet overbearing character. She has a tendency to pull people along with her schemes with little to no regard for their own interests. She's far too stubborn for her own good and can be very immature; especially to more serious, stickler type people who try tell her to control her impulses.
There is a strange eeriness to Gwyn, as if her naivety is merely a facade that she uses to cover up something much deeper. Regardless of what that may be, it is no surprise to most who know her that her childishness is more of an act than anything genuine. She can be quite smart when she wants to be, though perhaps playing dumb is merely a part of her strategy?
Biography | The daughter of the notorious 'White Witch', Lily Ivory, a skilled Huntress who went rogue and terrorized Vale, Gwyn has lived her life scorned by all those around her for being the Witch's daughter. When the White Witch eventually met her demise, Gwyn was only a small child. Her existence had been unknown to all for the longest of times, as the Witch had been hoping to train her in secret as her apprentice. With her father left unknown, Gwyn was placed in an orphanage where she very quickly became known as a taboo. The other children avoided her and the adults only gave her the bare minimum level of care.
At the age of eight, Gwyn was adopted by an elderly couple who had only just lost their grandson to illness and were looking to help ease the pain by sharing their love with another, less fortunate child. The family stayed in Vale for a few years before moving to Vacuo to be with their son. Growing up in Vacuo was definitely an interesting experience for the young girl, but she never let her positive attitude dwindle. She even became good friends with a young boy named Sky.
Sky wanted to be a Hunter so he could be just like his mother; a hero. Gwyn was never particularly fond of the idea of becoming a Huntress, especially after hearing of the atrocities her wicked mother was responsible for. Though at the same time, she was very sweet on Sky and wanted to stay by his side. The two of them enrolled in the Hunter academy where Sky would go on to be a model student; whilst Gwyn was quickly falling behind. She just didn't take to the normal hunter weapons like the others did; she was too frail and small to wield them effectively. Though one of the professors suspected that Gwyn's talents may lie in the same realm as her mother; the White Witch.
The Witch never used weapons, instead she had a natural affinity for channeling the wrathful power of Remnant; dust. Gwyn's professor hypothesized that she herself possessed the same talent, and he was correct. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, as they say, and soon after discovering her potential Gwyn quickly rose to the same level as Sky. Though the two were on separate teams, their chemistry in battle was outstanding. Sky, who fought with sword and shield, and Gwyn, who unleashed the terrifying powers of Dust on her enemies. After years of training together at the academy, the two graduated as exceptional Hunters.
Though soon after, Sky disappeared. He failed to return from a hunt and has been gone since. Gwyn hopes to find him, but it scared of facing the idea that there may be nothing left to find.
Aura Color | White. Gwyn possesses a very powerful Aura.
Semblance | Dust Weaver. Gwyn has a natural affinity towards Dust, able to harness and control its power to far beyond the capacity of a regular Hunter.
Weapons | Walpurgisnacht is Gwyn's weapon. More of a tool than a weapon, Walpurgisnacht is a rust colored contraption that straps directly onto her right thigh. The face of the machine is shaped like a heart, with three circle shaped windows. There are various compartments where Dust crystals are kept and can be accessed easily for Gwyn to harness in combat. The main function of Walpurgisnacht is it's ability to alchemize two types of primary dust into a Secondary type.
Burn and Earth create Lava. Lava is slow moving, but can quickly destroy most things that come into contact with it.
Burn and Water create Steam. Steam burns and can be used to create cover.
Water and Earth create Nature. Nature takes the form of rampantly growing vines and plants that can be used to attack or ensnare victims.
Water and Air create Ice. Ice Freezes and crystallizes to be used in various offensive and defensive ways.
Air and Earth create Dust. Dust, or Sand, is free flowing like water but with a deadly sharpness to it.
Lightning and Water create Storm. Storm is destructive and uncontrollable, tearing apart anything it comes into contact with.
Favors | Sweets, Music, Sky and Dancing.
Disfavors | Brocolli, Rudeness, Sitting still and weapons.
Affinities | Gwyn is best described as, for lack of a better term, an artillery type fighter. She excels at dishing out tremendous amounts of damage across the battlefield at a safe distance. She truly is at her best when she has competant allies that can keep the enemy as far away from her as possible. She is also quite versatile with her various types of Dust as well as Walpurgisnacht's ability to create new Dust for her to utilize.
Faults | While Gwyn is very powerful, she is also very delicate. A glass cannon, if you will. When placed in a situation where she is forced into a melee fight, Gwyn needs to be on the defensive as she is less durable than most Hunters. Walpurgisnacht is a great tool for Gwyn to be more versatile in fights, but it is not instantaneous. It takes Walpurgisnacht a few moments to create new Dust, leaving Gwyn open for a considerable period of time. Walpurgisnacht is Gwyn's greatest strength, and also her biggest weak point. Since the device carries a considerable amount of dust, it will erupt if it suffers sufficient damage.
