@FourtyTwo has already taken the Support Gunner role, but you're welcome to the Technical Specialist secondary role with a different Primary

@Rhona W

Ah, can't believe I missed that. If Smike doesn't take the Marksman role, I would like that. If not, then I guess the only spot available for me would be the Grenadier?

Genevieve Chalamet

---

_{Location: Castle in the estate grounds of the Baroness Chalamet - Before}

There was never any doubt that Genevieve would be going once the call to arms came to the city of Miroux. It hadn’t been all that long since the dreadful tragedy that had robbed her of her father, the Baron along with her dearest brothers and all of the household guard that she knew and grew up with. Her mother, the baroness didn’t think to stop her, for she too would like to get some revenge of her own, even though it would have to be through the hands of her eldest living child. The youngest of the family had hugged her the night before and refused to let go, especially when the lass didn’t know when or if she would ever see her sister again. It took a good long while and a whole lot of coaxing and sobbing, before the young girl would part from her older sister, reluctantly leaving Genevieve’s room to go to bed. “Promise me you’ll return. Promise me that you’ll be back. Everyone is gone now. It’s just me and mother left.” Without waiting for an answer, young Marie left the room before she started crying again.

_{Location: Parrence, Relouse Encampment - Current}

After sleeping for a couple of hours, Genevieve woke before the rose into the sky, gathering all her essentials and belongings and readied Bernard for the journey. Once preparations were done, Lady Chalamet left the family castle and began the journey through countless sea of green fields and pastures southward towards the city of Relouse, where a vast encampment had gathered to answer the call of his Majesty, King Arcel of Parrence. When she finally arrived at the encampment, she made her way towards the vast armour of tents where a large myriad of soldiers of all kinds were gathering, chatting, and readying themselves for the battle to come. There were plenty of people looking to spill Eskandr blood, and she reckoned that none of such would find themselves disappointed by the time the battle started. Leaving Bernard together with the rest of horses at the stables, Genevieve, clad in her armour, moved on towards the huge crowd that was already gathering as the Archbishop of Relouse alongside the King and Queen took their place to face the Grand Armée. As the monks rang their bells, and the prayers started, she too began praying to the Pentad for their blessings in the battles to come, her golden pendant of Dami clasped in between her palms. Dami would guide her, just as Escheran would empower her.

“Amen.” she muttered as she finished her prayer along with many others in the crowd. Then came the defining moment, as the King gave a rather rousing and inspiring speech, which he ended with a Vive la Parrence that immediately got the crowd of warriors cheering. Weapons of all kinds rose in the air, and Genevieve found herself raising her sword into the air as well. “VIVE LA PARRENCE!” As the king and queen began the prayers once more, she renewed her prayers along with them, word for word, her own voice bolstering the volume of the crowd. Once the prayers ended and the crowd began to disperse, Lady Chalamet followed the King and a small group of others to the command tent where the battle plans lay on a map. She keenly observed the others as they spoke, and made no attempt to join the conversation yet.

She listened intently to the one that was commonly known as the Tourrare, as the Lion knight voiced out his suggestion of leading a small expeditionary force, but she decided that her skills would better benefit the defenses on the shore. Keeping her silence as others began to volunteer for Ser Arslan’s expeditionary force, Genevieve recognised the other knight as Ser Maerec as he talked to one called Arnaud. She heard him speak of the defenses at the shore, and as that aligned with her interests, she felt keen to contribute. Putting on an inviting smile, she voiced her thoughts to the pair. “I too would like to participate in the shore defenses for the upcoming attack.”

Genevieve Chalamet

Genevieve Chalamet__ _ _ _ _

22 | Female | Parrench | Thunder & Force | Wizard/Knight__ _ _ _ _

C H A R A C T E R I S T I C S__ _ _ _ _

Standing around 170cm and weighing around 62kg, Genevieve has always been a highly active and athletic woman who has taken to more outdoor and physical activities compared to her younger sister. Despite having a heartier appetite than anyone else in the family, she has managed to maintain a toned figure. She is also the tallest of her father's daughters, standing just a head shy of her oldest brother's height.

The first distinct facial feature you’ll recognise of her are her oval-shaped face adorned by a pair of soft green eyes that gaze back at you giving off a tinge of sadness coupled with determination and grit. Her lips are a healthy shade of pink, although they can sometimes be a little chapped due to her spending too much time outdoors exerting herself without proper rehydration.

Her long locks that reach down her chest are blonde, and they are often a lighter shade of wheat-blonde in sunlight, while appearing a shade of brown in places with low light. Several strands are also usually braided. When free of dirt and grime, her fair complexion is unblemished with warm undertones presenting a comely and feminine appearance many would find attractive.

Being brave and adventurous has always been something Genevieve has never lacked from a young age. Being afraid of hardly anything at all, she would be keen and curious enough to try everything and give it at least a go. She loves getting her hands dirty and getting into the middle of things. Naturally an inquisitive and curious soul, she loves discovering and learning about new things. Sometimes, she can be a little too curious for her own good, ending up in places or doing things she is not supposed to do or be in.

Despite being classically trained as a wizard, she has found that the academic life is not only boring and too stifling for her, it also comes with a lot of social pressure she has no interest in, unlike her other siblings. Having discovered a different world in terms of fighting style, she has managed to combine her prior magical knowledge to her recently learnt martial skills. Not officially a knight in any sense, she is armoured like one and most people's first impression of her would be that she is simply playacting as one, but that impression would soon change once they witness her in combat. Genevieve has proven to be a highly effective combatant that utilise her gifts well to turn the odds into her favour.

B A C K G R O U N D__ _ _ _ _

Born into a noble family in the south of Parrence, Genevieve lived a decent enough life not dissimilar to that of your typical noble family. Her father was a baron who had pledged his services to the king, and in turn was given land to rule and pass down of his own. Baron Philippe Chalamet was a fourth and a half wheel wizard that was as talented as he was generous. He treated his people well, and they in turn respected him greatly. Young Genevieve had always been an energetic child ever since she learnt to walk, and it wasn’t a surprise to anyone that she found no interest in sewing, stitching or any of the other typical activities done by noble women and could often be found watching her brothers training with swords and other assorted physical and combat drills in the family estate’s courtyard.

Baron Philippe had always been considered an eccentric character by other noble families due to his open minded and progressive mindset, especially regarding his views of allowing his children to follow their interests, much to his wife’s chagrin. Although Angélique had never been fond of the idea, the baroness eventually accepted the fact and decided to follow her husband’s will. As soon as Genevieve was deemed old enough, she began her training as a classical wizard, learning all about the gift, and honing her magic. Being gifted in Thunder and Force magic, it was soon revealed that she was a Fourth Wheel that was especially talented in her gifts. Although she received adulation from her tutors, with some of them going as far as to call her a child prodigy, none of the compliments really satisfied her. The young noble lady felt that there was a part of her missing, and that she simply had no passion and interest in the masses of dry academic theories she faced frequently in the large tomes that her father's mages kept in their dusty looking libraries. It got to the point where the bored girl began to escape from her lessons and avoid classes whenever she could, to go out riding on her pony around the lush lands in her family’s estate.

When her father forbade her from going out riding, she remained cooped up in her room in protest, avoiding meals as she went on hunger strikes. Eventually her father relented and came up with an idea of a compromise. He began personally teaching her his own personal fighting style, techniques that blended the use of magic with physical weapons. When she was decent enough with a sword and shield, he added specially crafted armour to her training attire, starting with padded cloth, to a suit of leather, eventually progressing on to metal armour.

As Genevieve grew up and approached her sixteenth Stresia, she blossomed into a tough and free-spirited lass that was not only highly passionate of her beliefs, but also one that worked tirelessly to master her skills. Her father decided it was time and gave the castle's blacksmith an order to forge a specially crafted longsword that his daughter could call her own. During the festival, the baron and his family were enjoying the festivities with the villagers at a local village when one of her father’s soldiers came galloping into the village announcing that an alarmingly large Eskandr raiding party had just crossed the boundaries into the family’s estate lands and had already began burning and pillaging everything they came across. The news worried the baron as he had only brought along his household guard, and even with the combined might of the village garrison, they would still be no match for the overwhelming numbers of the invading Eskandr raiding party.

He gave the order for his wife to flee with their youngest daughter along with some of the household guard as their escort back to the castle to rally the rest of his army as well as the populace to fight back against the Eskandr raiders, although he knew that it was very unlikely that reinforcements would return in time. When the raiders finally came, they brought with them a loud and noisy wave of battle cries. Waves and waves of raiders came, but for every Eskandr the baron and his men cut down, three more appeared to take their place. It was only a matter of time before their numbers along with their strength and mana would deplete as they faced the overwhelming odds against them. All of them knew in their hearts that victory was almost impossible by now, but none of them lost their spirit as they continued fighting the losing battle.

It was then that her father made her promise him something. That she would flee and survive this day. Looking as immense desperation and sadness filled her father’s eyes, she knew it was pointless to argue with him. Quickly mounting a horse, she sped off into the direction of the castle. Just as soon as she thought she was clear of the fighting, she felt something heavy hit her and the next thing she knew, she was off her horse and was rolling down a hill. When her fall finally stopped, she could only manage a muffled groan before darkness claimed her. When she regained consciousness, night had fallen and a crackling campfire caught her eye. She recognised the man clad in dark robes in front of her. He was the very same Dark Somnian monk that she often saw her father talking to in hushed tones back in the castle on many occasions. As soon as the monk realised that she was awake, he snuffed out the fire by kicking dirt onto it with his boot, uttering,

“Good, you're awake at last. We've got to move. The baroness is waiting for you.”

When she returned to the castle, her mother told her that her arrival with her father’s army had routed the Eskandr raiders, but by then her father and brothers had already lost their lives, their heads decapitated and placed on spikes along with the rest of their men who had fought to the end. There were no survivors of the initial fighting force. It was then that Genevieve sought solace in Dami and asked for guidance and strength to rid Parrence of the Eskandr menace in the name of her father, her brothers along with all the other souls that lost their life that day, finally giving them the justice they deserve for the unjustful way that their life had been robbed from them. Although scores of Eskandr raiders had fallen under the might of her father and brothers, to her, no amount of Eskandr deaths could ever make up for the loss of her dear father and brothers. When the call-to-arms by King Arcel of Parrence arrived, Genevieve did not hesitate to answer.

T H E G I F T__ _ _ _ _

Fourth Wheel | Thunder & Force | Thunderchild

Classically and academically trained as a wizard growing up, she is skilled in many practical forms of magic one would typically expect from your typical wizard. However, her fighting style has long since changed, mixing and interweaving sword and shield techniques along with magic in combat. Despite the frequent strange looks from others, she pays no heed to these strange looks from these strangers.

Lightning-charged strikes - Genevieve is able to generate power lightning charges through altering the polarity of atoms and molecules and channels them through her sword and shield to cause a heavy blow when they strike a target, causing significantly more damage if the object being hit is a good conductor. This is a rather loud and noisy affair, and therefore stealth is not something this goes well with.

Force Lightning - She is also able to generate lightning strikes from her palms into a focused strike for precision attacks. Combining this with force energy, she is able to use the kinetic energy to extend the range of these lightning strikes which are highly useful when ranged attacks are required before close combat.

Magnetic Manipulation - She is able to magnetise and demagnetise objects by altering the polarity of the atoms in the subject matter. She rarely uses this power though, and mainly uses this to counter against other foes with magnetic powers, especially to demagnetise herself and her allies, nullifying their effects.

Telekinesis - She is able to telekinetically move objects of various sizes using her hands with simple gestures or through her mind alone, although the latter is significantly more mana-intensive and she has been trained to only use that as a last resort in absolutely dire circumstances. She has been known to use this power offensively by flinging objects at attackers or holding up large objects as shields defensively for incoming attacks. The purpose of this power's usage is highly situational depending on the circumstances.

S T R E N G T H S & S K I L L S__ _ _ _ _

❖ Adaptable fighter - Although Genevieve is not as physically strong compared to most men, she is able to prevail by being able to think on her feet, assessing the battle and quickly adapting and strategizing about the changing situations as battle commences. Her proficiency with force magic also helps her to move faster than she would otherwise, granting her additional mobility and agility.

❖ Strategic Combatant - Although she is more than a capable one-on-one combatant, her true strength lies in large scale combat, where her talents can shine in being the strategist and the brains of army deployment despite her young age. It also allows her to make the best use of her magic and the environment with plenty of resources available for use.

❖ Magical Marvel - Highly skilled and specialised in lightning magic, she is not one to be underestimated or treated lightly or suffer the result of an enlightening lethal consequence. Boosted with a high confidence and familiarity with her particular gifts, she is able to cast such magic and spells quickly without much delay at all.

❖ Horse Riding - Having learnt to ride since she was young, riding is now considered second nature to her, and fighting on horseback is also something that she is no stranger to, having trained with her father during her teenage years. She doesn’t consider being mounted a handicap, and can fight decently well on a horse just as she can on foot.

W E A K N E S S E S & F L A W S__ _ _ _ _

❖ Archery - Genevieve never really found the need to be good at archery, as when it came to hitting targets at range, she preferred relying on her lightning strikes instead. Unfamiliar with the bow, and should she be forced to use one, her accuracy and technique would be poor.

❖ Justice Fighter - She has always found it in her to stand up for the defenceless ever since she took the guidance of Dami into her heart. Frequent dispenser of vigilante justice and challenger of the unjust, she especially hates it when individuals of noble status blatantly and publicly treat commoners poorly as that gives all of nobility a bad name.

❖ Stubborn - Since young, Genevieve has proved to be a really stubborn lass. She can be stubborn to the point of being obstinate and can be really insistent on doing things her way unless she is persuaded otherwise, and doing so is not easy unless there is a really strong and logical argument for doing so.

❖ Hatred - She has never forgiven Eskandrs for the death of her father and brothers, and since she is unable to tell who is personally responsible for their deaths, she chooses to have a blanket hatred for all Eskandrs instead. Being able to trust or like one will seem virtually impossible and she will never work with one unless there is a very strong reason on why she has to do so.

Genevieve Chalamet__ _ _ _ _

22 | Female | Parrench | Thunder & Force | Wizard/Knight__ _ _ _ _

C H A R A C T E R I S T I C S__ _ _ _ _

Standing at around 170cm and weight around 62kg, Genevieve has always been a highly active and athletic woman who has taken to more outdoor and physical activities compared to her siblings and what is generally expected of her. Perhaps it is because of such that she has a heartier appetite for eating and is the tallest of her father’s children and just a head shy of her oldest brother’s height.

The first distinct facial feature you’ll recognise of her are her oval-shaped face adorned by a pair of soft green eyes that gaze back at you giving off a tinge of sadness coupled with determination and grit. Her lips are a healthy shade of pink, although they may sometimes be a little chapped due to her spending too much time outdoors exerting herself as her mother would often say.

Her long locks that reach down her chest are blonde, and they are often a lighter shade of wheat-blonde in sunlight, while appearing a shade of brown in places with low light. Several strands are also usually braided. When free of dirt and grime, her fair complexion is otherwise unblemished with warm undertones presenting a comely and feminine appearance many would find attractive.

Being brave and adventurous has been something Genevieve has never lacked from a young age. Being afraid of hardly anything at all, she would be keen and curious enough to try everything and give it at least a go. She loves getting her hands dirty and getting into the middle of things. She is also naturally an inquisitive and curious soul who loves to discover and learn about new things. Sometimes, she can be a little too curious for her own good, ending up in places or doing things she is not supposed to do or be in.

Despite being classically trained as a wizard, she has found that the academic life is not only boring and too stifling for her, it also comes with a lot of social pressure she has no interest in, unlike her other siblings. Having discovered a different world in terms of fighting style, she has managed to combine her prior magical knowledge to her recently learnt martial skills. Not officially a knight in any sense, she is armoured like one and most people's first impression of her would be that she is simply playacting as one, but the impression would soon changed once they witnessed her in combat. Due to her talent in picking up skills quickly along with her gifts, she has proven to be really lethal and effective combatant that anyone who has fought beside her has never gone out of their way to change anything, or say anything else.

Born into a noble family in the south of Parrence, Genevieve lived a life that was decent by all means, especially by noble standards. Her father was a baron, who had pledged his services to the king, and in turn was given land to rule and pass down of his own. Baron Philippe Chalamet was fifth wheel wizard that was as talented as he was generous. He tried his people well, and they in turn was respected him greatly. Young Genevieve had always been an energetic child ever since she learnt to walk, therefore it wasn’t surprising to anyone at all that the usual activities carried out by noble women did not interest her. She found no interest in sewing, stitching or any of the noble women's activities and could often be found watching her brothers training with swords and other assorted combat drills in the family estate’s courtyard.

Baron Philippe had always been considered a more progressive and eccentric character by other noble families, especially with his views of allowing his children to follow their interests, much to his wife’s chagrin. Although Angélique had never been fond of the idea, she eventually accepted the fact and decided to follow her husband’s will. As soon as she was deemed old enough, Genevieve began her training as a classical wizard, learning all about the gift, and honing her magic. Being gifted in Arcane and Force magic, it was soon revealed that she was a Fourth Wheel that was especially talented in her gifts. Despite being especially skilled in magic, she found that there was something missing in her, the lack of passion in purely magical knowledge with plenty of dry academic theory day she had to face in the large tome of books that was kept in the libraries of the mages in her father’s service. It got to the point where the bored girl began to escape from her lessons and avoid her classes whenever she could to go out riding on her pony around the lands in her family’s estate.

When her father forbade her from going out riding, she stayed cooped up in her room, avoiding meals as she went on hunger strikes. Eventually her father relented and came up with an idea of a compromise. He began personally teaching her a different fighting style, blending the use of her gifts with the use of weapons. When she was comfortable handling a sword and shield, she began training with specially crafted armour, starting progressively with padded cloth, to leather and eventually moving on to metal armour.

As she grew up and approached her sixteenth Stresia, Genevieve has blossomed into not only a tough and free-spirited lass that was not only highly passionate of her beliefs, but also one that worked her to learn her craft, her father decided it was time and gave the order for the blacksmith to forge her a longsword of her own. During the festival, the baron and his family were enjoying the festivities at a local village when one of her father’s soldiers came galloping into the village announcing that a large Eskandr raiding party had just entered into the family’s estate lands and had already began burning and pillaging everything they came across. Her father had only brought his household guard and that along with the village garrison of soldiers would be no match for the numbers of the invading Eskandar raiding party.

The baroness fled with her youngest daughter and some of the household guard as their escort back to the family’s castle to rally the rest of the soldiers and the populace to fight back against the Eskandr raiders, but it was very unlikely that they would return in time. When the raiders came, they came in a huge wave, and for every Eskandr the baron and his men cut down, three more appeared to take their place. It was only a matter of time before their mana were depleted as they faced overwhelming odds against them. They knew in their hearts that victory was almost impossible but by now, they were about to get surrounded.

It was then that her father made her promise him something. That she would flee and survive the day. Looking at the immense sadness and desperation in her father’s eyes, she knew it was pointless to argue otherwise. She quickly mounted a horse and sped off into the opposite direction. Just as soon as she thought she was clear of the fighting, she felt something heavy hit her and the next thing she knew, she was off her horse and falling and rolling over a hill as darkness claimed her. When she regained consciousness, night had fallen and a crackling campfire caught her eye. She recognised the man clad in dark robes in front of her. He was the very same Dark Somnian monk that she often saw her father talking to in hushed tones back in the castle on many occasions before. As soon as he realised that she was awake, he snuffed out the fire, uttering. “The baroness is waiting for you.”

When she returned to the castle, her mother told her that her arrival with her father’s army had routed the Eskandr raiders, but by then her father and brothers had lost their lives along with all of their men. There were no survivors of the initial fighting force. It was then that she swore to Dami to guide her and give her the strength to rid Parrench of the Eskandr menace in the name of her father, her brothers along with all the souls that lost their life that day, finally giving them the justice they deserve for the unjustful way that their life was robbed from them. WAlthough scores of Eskandr raiders had fallen under the might of her father and brothers, to her, no amount of Eskandr deaths could ever make up for the loss of her dear father and brothers. When the call-to-arms by King Arcel of Parrence arrived, she felt that this was the calling in life she had been waiting for.

Fourth Wheel | Thunder & Force | Thunderchild

Classically and academically trained as a wizard growing up, she is skilled in practical forms of magic one would typically expect from your average wizard. However, her fighting style has long since changed, mixing and interweaving swordplay and magic in combat, she frequently gets strange looks from others, but she pays no heed to these strange looks from these strangers.

Lightning-charged strikes - Genevieve is able to generate power lightning charges through altering the polarity of atoms and molecules and channels them through her sword to cause a heavy blow when it strikes a target, causing significantly more damage if the object being hit is a good conductor. This is a rather loud and noisy affair, and stealth is impossible as far as this technique is concerned.

Force Lightning - She is also able to generate lightning strikes from her palms into a focused strike for precision attacks strikes. Combining this with force energy, she is able to use the kinetic energy to extend the range of these lightning strikes which are highly useful when ranged attacks are required before close combat.

Magnetic Manipulation - She is able to magnetise and demagnetise objects by altering the polarity of the atoms in the subject matter. She rarely uses this power though, and mainly uses this to counter against other foes with magnetic powers, especially to demagnetise herself and her allies, nullifying their effects.

Telekinesis - She is able to telekinetically move objects of various sizes using her hands with simple gestures or through her mind alone, although the latter is significantly more mana-intensive and she has been trained to only use that as a last resort in absolutely dire circumstances. She has been known to use this offensively by flinging objects at attackers or holding up large objects as shields for incoming attacks. The purpose of usage is highly situational depending on the circumstances.

S T R E N G T H S & S K I L L S__ _ _ _ _

❖ Adaptable fighter - Although Genevieve is not as physically strong compared to men, she is able to prevail by being able to think on her feet, assessing the battle and quickly adapting and strategizing about the changing situations as battle commences. Her proficiency with force magic also helps her to move faster than she would otherwise, granting her additional mobility and agility.

❖ Strategic Combatant - Although she is more than a capable one-on-one combatant, her true strength lies in large scale combat, where her talents in being the strategist, and the brains of army deployment despite her young age. It also allows her to make the best use of her magic and the environment with plenty of resources available for use.

❖ Magical Marvel - Highly skilled and specialised in lightning magic, she is not one to be underestimated or treated lightly or be the result of a potentially enlightening and lethal consequence. Boosted with a high confidence and familiarity with her particular gifts, she is able to cast such magic and spells quickly without much delay at all.

❖ Horse Riding - Having learnt to ride since she was young, riding is now considered second nature to her, and fighting on horseback is also something that she is no stranger to, having trained with her father during her teenage years. She doesn’t consider being mounted a handicap, and can fight decently well on a horse just as she can on foot.

W E A K N E S S E S & F L A W S__ _ _ _ _

❖ Archery - Genevieve never really found the need to be good at archery, as when it came to hitting targets at range, she preferred relying on her lightning strikes instead. Unfamiliar with the bow, and should she be forced to use one, her accuracy and technique would be poor.

❖ Justice Fighter - She has always found it in her to stand up for the defenceless ever since she took the guidance of Dami into her heart. Frequent dispenser of vigilante justice and challenger of the unjust, she especially hates it when individuals of noble status blatantly and publicly treat commoners poorly as that gives all of nobility a bad name.

❖ Stubborn - Since young, Genevieve has proved to be a really stubborn lass. She can be stubborn to the point of being obstinate and can be really insistent on doing things her way unless she is persuaded otherwise, and doing so is not easy unless there is a really strong and logical argument for doing so.

❖ Hatred - She has never forgiven Eskandrs for the death of her father and brothers, and she does not know who is personally responsible for their deaths, she chooses to have a blanket hatred for all Eskandrs instead. Being able to trust or like one will seem virtually impossible and she will never work with one unless there is a very strong reason on why she has to do so.
