Name:
Scarlet Leone
Age:
16
Normal Appearance:
Scarlet stands at 5 feet and 4 inches (164.5 cm) and weighs approximately 118 pounds. She is of above-average athleticism with minor muscle definition.
Medium Appearance:
Her transformed appearance is the same as her natural one, aside from gaining a few inches of height (to 176.7 cm) and her eyes turning red.
Channeling Appearance:
She looks the same as she normally does though with these markings overlaid onto her body.
Channeling Abilities:
In her channeled form, she can create a red scythe in the form of Kokou's own. While this scythe is nigh-weightless and easy to use, her skill with it is limited by her lack of training/practice. She is also able to create a shield momentarily (1.5 seconds) in front of her. If the shield is broken, it will not be usable again for the remainder of the channeling duration. If the shield is not broken, it will require a five second recharge before it can be summoned again. She also gains enhanced strength, speed, and durability while channeling Kokou.
Grade:
10
Personality:
Scarlet tends to come off as brash and haughty, a front she has calculated and refined through years of practice. In reality she is eccentric to the point of nigh incomprehensibility, going from one extreme to the other at the flip of a switch. The most obvious facets of her personality are her strange sense of humor and extreme excitability/extroversion or her tendency to be extremely introverted and reflective, with no apparent middle ground aside from what she calls her "jokes." These extremes have made her a target of both admiration and ridicule throughout her life.
Background:
Born the bastard child of a computer science major and a firefighter, Scarlet spent most of her childhood online, where she learned many things very quickly on her own, putting her at an advantage over her peers until recent years. A lack of supervision scarred her mental development, due to her being exposed to many things a child shouldn't be exposed to. By the age of seven, she had come across, consumed, and discarded many philosophies and views of the world, settling on one of personal irrelevance to the world and universe. This was in part due to intellectual arguments in the vein of nihilism and partly due to her coming across videos of horrific scenes, things that she would often share with her peers. She had already become numb to the sight of maiming and blood by this time, and she found it funny how others would react and how she would get in trouble for talking about them. Her behavior changed at age nine, when she was diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, which caused her to retreat from her peers for fear of contamination, further distancing herself from normal relationships with those her age, a distance that was started by her strange interests and lack of motivation in life.
In an ironic twist of fate, her own home burned down from an electrical fire and she and her parents had to move elsewhere when she was ten years old. This is around the time that she began being medicated for her disorder, and she took full advantage of the new environment by reinventing herself almost completely. She continued her belief that nothing really mattered but instead of simply giving up on life, she decided it would be better to play it like a game. So she crafted a facade of being better than those around her and began to hide her real personality which grew more and more strange as time went on.
Most recently, her parents split up and she and her computer tech father moved to Lakewood. This was only several weeks ago, and she has yet to really interact with anyone in town, spending most of her time in her home.
Other:
She has a somewhat unhealthy obsession with snakes and an equally unhealthy hatred of insects, both exacerbated by her rather severe OCD.

Spirit Name:
Kokou
Spirit Classifications:
Meta/Null
Spirit Personality:
Unknown. It rarely speaks and only really ever expresses rage, though only when something causes it to. It is otherwise fairly tame.
Spirit Appearance:
Sealed Appearance:
A jeweled slab of stone, about the size and thickness of a textbook with a red eye-like marking on the center of the front.
Summoning Abilities and Stats:
N/A
Spirit Charge:
N/A
Other Information:
It is the most violent and powerful of the (lesser) Yoruba spirits and the voodoo rituals surrounding it involves its followers falling into a deep trance. During this trance its followers display a strong thirst for blood and high durability by swallowing knives and bashing their heads against a surface until they bleed profusely.
Weakness and Limitations:
- Kokou is unable to manifest as a Summon or use a Spirit Charge. It is limited solely to being channeled.
- Kokou, and by extension its medium, is not able to draw out its full power on demand. Rather, its power is temporarily unlocked in two ways, either by Kokou experiencing rage or during battle, where life and death are usually on the line.
- While Kokou and its medium's range is severely limited, Kokou grants its medium improved speed. However, this does not improve the medium's reaction time to enough of a level to properly use it. Rather, it only increases enough to be about 75% effective at controlling their channeling speed, even at the minimum increase. This starts at a 50% increase to the medium's base speed and goes up equivalent to how much of Kokou's power it can draw out, so if a battle wears on long enough to reach its maximum speed, it would be 2.5 times the speed of the medium normally by themself. It is a struggle for the medium to temper their speed to more manageable levels, meaning it will be difficult to do anything while channeling without practice unless standing still.
- Kokou will gradually take over the mind of its medium while channeled if it is experiencing rage, which will eventually devolve into a berserker mentality and damage its medium's mind in a minor, though cumulative and permanent way.
- At the beginning of a channeling, the medium's physical strength increases by 50%. If they could normally lift 100 pounds, they could now lift 150. At the height of its power (which usually means complete overtaking of the medium) it is 2.5 times the physical strength it begins a battle with, this scales 1 to 1 with its speed increases. For example, if the medium could normally life 100 pounds, and could lift 150 when channeling, they could now lift 250 pounds.
- Kouko endows its medium with increased durability, enough to stave off the effects of wounds temporarily. For example, a wound will hurt far less than it normally would, allowing for the medium to push through it and continue fighting. However this will not stop bleeding or other effects such as the spreading of poison, so it is a temporary measure at best.
