Well, I'm sorry to say I can't accept the profile as is. Again, the academy would not let a student serve as a "prison" for a dangerous monster, regardless of the circumstances. I don't plan on budging on the dragon thing either, to be honest. The character is rejected.
You say he's under control of him, but...that's really not how it looks to me. I mean, when they fuse, you've said Vova gets Dracula's maddening bloodthirst and you made a point of saying there's pretty much no controlling him when he's summoned. As far as being a "prison" for him goes, I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that, but even ignoring the previous factors...the academy wouldn't allow it. In part because of the fact that Vova gains the thirst for blood if he's forced to fuse and in part because given the choice between having the powerful evil monster contracted to someone whose mental state he is capable of affecting and having the powerful evil monster not contracted to someone, they'd choose the latter.

I still don't agree with him being a dragon.
Honestly, Dracula's one of the contracts I'm thinking of with that. It doesn't matter if he can pretend to be a nice guy, he's still a bloodthirsty monster (who, to make matters worse, passes this thirst for blood onto his contractor) that can be needlessly cruel, treats humans like cattle and is generally remorseless about his actions. And keep in mind that even if he's capable of consistently pretending he's a nice person, Vlad Tepes would've had a contract with Dracula in this setting, meaning chances are there'd be something in the history books about how bad he can be.

Also, while I get the thought process behind it, I don't agree with Dracula being an actual dragon.
•Name: Alex Quilldrake
•Age: 17
•Appearance: Here.
•Personality: Alex is generally a nice, easygoing boy. He has always been fascinated with stories of heroes, whether they're in comics, anime, tokusatsu or ancient legends. He has a strong sense of justice and, when the situation calls for it, can be rather hammy. He believes there is good in everyone and that those who do evil are just weak-minded enough to fall prey to their desires. In line with the way many of the heroes he looks up to handle such problems, he believes that the best way to handle these situations is to disable the offender through (ideally non-lethal) combat before taking them in for detention.
•Clubs: Anime appreciation society, gaming club and the security team.
•Brief Backstory: Maybe later.
•Contract(s): The Lady of the Lake

Contracted Beings:
•Name: Nimue
•Type: Fae/Lady of the Lake
•Personality: Nimue is...somewhat of a troll. While this normally takes the form of fairly subtle teasing with an overall amicable personality, if she finds someone's reactions amusing, it generally gets worse.
•Powers: Alex has the ability to summon and wield the legendary sword Excalibur. While wielding it, his strength and reaction times are increased and his already impressive swordsmanship skills are improved. By raising the sword above his head and invoking its name, he can cause the blade to release a blinding flash of light.
•Fusion: When Alex fuses with Nimue, he transforms into a girl. Something he really wasn't expecting when he made the contract, after all, not many stories about King Arthur feature him spontaneously turning into a girl. He tries to avoid using it when possible and, when forced to, makes sure to get out of public view first. Of course, most people can still easily tell that it's him...the fact that the girl's hair and eye colours are the same as his and she wields the same legendary sword are kind of big hints. In this form, Alex's speed is enhanced. While it doesn't cover his entire body, Alex's armour is capable of taking hits from most mundane weaponry and some weaker contractors' attacks without any damage. In addition, due to having Excalibur's scabbard as well as the sword itself, wounds Alex receives will not bleed in this form (although they will when he returns to normal). Finally, he is able to tap into Nimue's magical power to enhance Excalibur's special ability, turning it from a blinding flash to a focused destructive beam.
•Summon: Just pretend that Excalibur is the same one as the one in the fused image, ehe...Nimue is a powerful sorceress, having learned from Merlin himself. Many of her spells are based around water or light. The former allows her to heal other people by infusing water with her mana and pouring it into their mouths and create walls of water which, thanks to being infused with magic from a powerful spellcaster, are surprisingly good at stopping attacks. The latter allows her to create illusions by bending light, as well as being able to produce the blinding light and beams Alex channels through Excalibur on her own.

In case anyone's wondering, I'm going with one of the versions of the story of King Arthur where there's more than one Lady of the Lake (ie. the one that shoved Merlin in a cave/rock/tree/whatever is a separate character to this one).
Um, I made a couple of edits to Rachel's profile. Added in an extra card that will pretty much just serve to let her get around the multiverse and a couple of extremely minor additions to her backstory.
Sorry I vanished for a few days, my ISP was being dumb...and refused to accept that it was an issue with the equipment they gave me, which would've had me back several days ago. ):

Um, anyway, I'll look at profiles in detail later, however I'll say that I think I'd prefer if we avoided having contracted beings that are just bloodthirsty chaotic evil monsters. While those probably exist in the setting, people with them probably wouldn't attend the academy, since chances are they'd end up with the contract broken.
Clearly, Kaede's otaku savviness means she brought a helmet. >.> <.<

...I'm probably joking.
@Aqua: I see. That makes more sense. I'll have to make a decision on whether or not he's acceptable later though.

@Jay: Honestly, depending on how it's done, immortality would be totally fine, and more acceptable than something unrelated to what Ouroboros represents. Regenerative immortality, for example, isn't something I'd have an issue with so long as it's balanced properly (ie. it actually takes time and they're not at full power immediately afterwards). The kind of immortality where they can shrug off absolutely anything thrown at them without caring on the other hand...not so much.

@Dead: I'll have to decide if he's acceptable or not later, sorry.

Also, I have to say I'm a bit surprised by the number of generally nice contractors with contracts who want to murder everyone that are showing up...
Name: Rachel Kay
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Appearance: Seen here, cosplaying. Her normal clothing would be...something more like this, minus the headphones. She's about 5'4".
Power: Rachel has acquired a modified Pokegear. The first, and simpler of the modifications upgraded the device's map to function in a manner similar to an MPS, allowing it to be used to travel between worlds. Secondly, the part of the device used to scan expansion cards has been replaced by a slot that Rachel can insert one of a set of shards into, allowing her to access an outfit and abilities based on the Pokemon the shard came from. Unless otherwise mentioned, these all include some degree of enhanced strength, speed and toughness.
  • Hitmonchan: By inserting the Hitmonchan shard into her Pokegear, Rachel gains the Punching Pokemon's abilities, namely superhuman upper body strength, enhanced speed, pro-level boxing skills due to a combination of punching attacks and the Iron Fist ability and the ability to imbue her fists with fire, ice or electrical energy. In addition, her outfit transforms into Hitmonchan's boxing outfit, complete with shoulder pads.
  • Farfetch'd: Rachel gains the Wild Duck Pokemon's leek-based combat skills, as well as the razor sharp vegetable required to use them. While she isn't capable of flying, she can jump far higher than should be humanly possible and is capable of gliding short distances. In addition, due to the Inner Focus ability, she is harder to distract from any given task. Whether due to this ability or a conscious effort after seeing how this shard affects her clothing, Rachel speaks in a way one might expect from a samurai. Unlike with Hitmonchan, her outfit is (thankfully) not a perfect copy of the pokemon's. Basically, pretend the katana's a large leek and you've got a basic idea of how she's dressed while using this shard.
  • Lotad: Using the Water Weed Pokemon's abilities, Rachel can fire blasts of high-pressure water from her mouth or hands. Alternatively, she can fire a red beam which slowly drains energy from an enemy it hits to heal her injuries, though if the enemy moves out of the path of the beam, it ceases working. The most useful ability of the form as far as Rachel is concerned, is the fact that it enables her to swim, something she doesn't actually know how to do normally. While using the Lotad shard, Rachel's clothes are changed to a blue one-piece swimsuit under an oversized blue raincoat, in addition, she gains a hat that resembles a large lily pad.
  • Gothita: When she uses Gothita's shard, Rachel gains the power to fire beams of psychic energy, toss inanimate objects around with telekinesis and release waves of energy to heal other people's injuries. In addition, thanks to the Fixation Pokemon's Unobstructed Sight ability, she gains something similar to x-ray vision. While using this shard, Rachel's pigtails change to be held in place by ribbons resembling Gothita's antennae, her clothes turn into black one-piece pajamas with a pattern resembling the one on Gothita's body and she gains a bow-tie.
  • Growlithe: Using the Puppy Pokemon's shard, Rachel gains the power to breathe fire or surround herself with flames and tackle people. In addition, her teeth become sharper, allowing her to use them for biting attacks...which she is unlikely to do at any point. Thanks to Growlithe's Flash Fire ability, she is effectively immune to fire-based attacks and becomes stronger if hit with one. While using this shard, she gains a dog-eared headband and an orange jacket with a number of black stripes and a fur trim.
  • Sylveon: The Sylveon shard is...rather unusual. The Intertwining Pokemon's Pixilate ability infuses her attacks with, for lack of a better term, fairy magic, boosting the strength of those not already based around this power. In addition, the ability causes a number of changes to Rachel, beyond the normal clothing change of the other shards, the most immediately noticeable being changing her eye and hair colours, as well as making her pupils heart-shaped. She also gains a tendency to spout cheesy post-transformation catch phrases, as well as calling her attacks. In this form, Rachel gains the power to channel the power of the moon to create a destructive beam, conjure star-shaped projectiles that home in on their target, release a flash of light to blind opponents for a short time and focus all of her strength into a single physical strike, which causes insane amounts of damage if it connects, but leaves her completely exhausted afterwards, making it a last resort.
Faction: None.
World of Origin: Our Earth
Personality: Rachel is shy around people she doesn't know. However once she feels comfortable around someone, she becomes more cheerful and energetic, if a bit snarky at times. She can be surprisingly hammy, when she feels the situation calls for it. She is a fan of assorted manga and anime, mostly slice of life or action series, as well as assorted tokusatsu series. She tends to get mistaken for a teenager a lot.
Backstory: There isn't really much to say. Rachel has had a boring, ordinary life for the most part, having only gone out of Australia once prior to heading to Museum Island. She coasted through school without any real effort, getting decent grades in the process and then started studying to become a teacher. Having heard that most of her friends would be going away at around the same time she'd be on a break from classes, Rachel decided to go on a holiday of her own, conveniently deciding on the same place a number of people she knew online were going.
Quote: "A boxer, a samurai duck, a lily pad, a puppy, a little girl and a cocoon...not even a single legendary?"
Ah, right. Sorry. Um, I'm not sure if I'm misinterpreting, but, contracted beings are independent existences, so you might get a demon, but you wouldn't get something like a manifestation of the contractor's dark side.
Yeah. At the very least so I know what she's actually capable of.
