Name: Sophon Phy
Age: 19
Appearance:Standing at 5 Feet, 1 Inches tall,
Sophon is considered a fairly short person. However this doesn't bring her down, quite the opposite. She theorizes that her small stature will give her an advantage in hand to hand combat, however she hasn't been given the opportunity to test that theory. Her hair is voluminous, ashen grey and goes down to her mid-back. She used to have jet black hair, like most people in the Asian lands, but after 「awakening」 her hair has lightened into a grey. She doesn't mind that much. She often keeps it back with a wide white hairband.
Her typical attire is conservative, wearing clothes of a slightly baggier style, concealing her figure. She believes herself to be unattractive because she is on the leaner side, and her body is well toned, revealing her well trained muscles. She goes with a less revealing style because of that. Her left arm was cut off just above the elbow, leaving a stump. She leaves the sleeve pinned up with a safety pin.
Whenever she activates her 「seed」, the plant matter begins at her shoulder and grows downwards, leaving the stump and creating a new arm. Just above the middle of her sternum is a perfect teardrop shaped birthmark. Despite never having been born with it. It is reminiscent of a seed.
History:Born in a small third world country in South East Asia, her life was normal for the area. Being the eldest in a family full of daughters, her father decided that she would be the family leader after he passed. He taught her the things his father taught him. How to farm, how to defend herself, how to know fix the house, and so on.
Recently a military general overthrew the government in a coup, setting himself up as a dictator. Several months passed as Sophons village was being overtaxed, when finally a group of soldiers arrived and began to take whatever they wanted, and whomever they wanted. The village decided enough was enough. A small group of volunteers would distract the soldiers and the rest of the villagers would flee to a neighboring country. The plan went wrong, and the soldiers began to destroy property. It quickly became violent, and the plan was hastily executed. Sophon attempted to flee with the running group, but she was caught by a soldier. Remembering what she had learned from her father, she surprisingly attacked the soldier and made him lose his grip. Only running a few steps before another tackled her. As punishment, she was beat and her left arm was cut off by a machete. The group of soldiers left not long after, leaving her to bleed out and die.
As she was unconscious, she had a vision of Buddha in the clouds. He picked a seed from a heavenly tree that he was sitting under and placed it in her soul. Elsewhere, a wandering Wizard was venturing through the dense jungles searching for a specific herb, when he came across the burnt and ruined village. He hurriedly ran into the village grounds searching for survivors, finding only one. Sophon, who had scores of medicinal herbs and local grasses growing where her body lay, in the midst of scorched ground. With the herbs so readily available, the Wizard was able to stabilize her and mend her wounds. Although she still was missing her left arm. Having never seen this kind of magic before, the Wizard took Sophon under his wing as her apprentice as they traveled the world. Before long, they were able to contact her family who had escaped with the other villagers to a neighboring country. She vowed to become stronger with her new found abilities to overthrow the dictator. After a little more than a year, the Wizard enrolled her in a school called Magicana. Confused, she accepted. The Wizard explained that he had a quest to do, alone. In the mean time, she would be learning at Magicana. Tuition, books, and supplies all paid for.
Dream/Goals:Become more proficient with her magic.
To overthrow a small time dictator and liberate her home country.
Magic:The Seed of Life - Sophon has the ability to create and manipulate plant life. It is an activated magic, requiring her to concentrate and draw power from her 「seed」. The plants she summons and manipulates are only active when the seed is active, otherwise the plants wither away and turn into dust. She understands this as forcing them into creation, and without concentration, they are forced into death. Whenever she activates her 「seed」, a small bright green glow is visible on her chest. It comes from a bright green gem that appears just a millimeter from her skin. The gem is not movable, and glows bright enough to be visible through clothing.
As of right now she is Unskilled in her magic. At most in a controlled environment she can create a tree, patches of grass, flowers, herbs, etc. With an exception of
The Druids Armor.
She currently knows one active spell.
The Druids Armor - Intermediate Spell. A spell she and The Wizard developed together, mostly the Wizard though. Devised as a means of protecting herself from physical harm. While she knows she can improve on the armor, such as using an Ironwood instead of normal wood to increase durability and strength, she doesn't have the skill yet to summon and shape Ironwood. She is proficient with using
The Druids Armor.
She currently knows one passive spell.
Whenever she activates her magic, an arm of plant matter is created in place of her missing arm.
