~Blackhawk~
Somebody set off her grenade mid-air. Dammit. I must be getting dull. No helping it. She'd have to find whoever interfered. Holstering the grenade launcher back beside her thigh, Blackhawk reached over her shoulder for her rifle, and--

"Dishonorable dog! Face a real opponent!"

And promptly had to dive out of the way to avoid some punk kicking her in the face. Great. Now there was interference right in front of her and at a location she wasn't aware of. The rifle wouldn't be useful up close. Instead, Blackhawk would need the machete. Gripping it in her left hand, the woman spoke clearly to her assailant as she pulled it out from behind her back. "If you hadn't screamed like that, you'd have gotten me. That in itself is worth something, kid." Readying herself and entering a fighting stance, Blackhawk observed her foe and continued "But I have no business with some brat prattling on about honor. Out of my way."

~Phalanx~
Phalanx barely had time to register that her opponent was headed straight for her before the sword came down hard; if she'd so much as blinked, she wouldn't have time to raise her shield. She's fast! How in the hell does somebody move that fast!? That in itself was nearly enough to confirm Phalanx's suspicions...no, her fears. The sword itself merely sealed the deal. Anyone bearing the name Phalanx would have been able to recognize Excalibur; it was - by Layla's time - a relic that every Phalanx had wanted to recover from wherever it had gone. And here it was, with the only thing standing between it and her being a shield that probably wouldn't last much longer at this rate.

"I get it now; you're truly the King. In that case, this fight's as good as over...but, I'm not going to surrender so easily!" She could have definitely called in her fellow White Knights, but even all of them plus Phalanx probably wouldn't stand a chance. But this fight had now started; all Phalanx could do was endure it long enough to properly lose. Putting the entirety of her strength behind pushing Excalibur off her, Phalanx had already pre-calculated her next move. Assuming, of course, King Arthur didn't outclass Phalanx's strength just as much as her speed.

Not good. He...no, she's the only one person I must defeat, and yet...

~Necrohead~
Burnout seemed to be down for a moment. But then he got back up. Was this man seriously that hell-bent on getting himself killed? If this kept going much longer, Necrohead would end up wanting to call up headquarters to ask for an exception to her dietary rules for this guy; especially after he went and called her a zombie freak. Alas, rules were rules. At the very least, she knew where to aim for future reference; Burnout's hands were glowing.

But it was to end here. Stepping right up to Burnout with absolutely no evident concern for his earlier words about recovering after being blown to bits, Necrohead did what zombies do best. Use their heads. The meaning of which being, Necrohead reared her head back, and promptly swung it forward. Not hard enough to crack the guy's skill or anything; just to finish what the robot had started. She wanted this fight to be over so she could grab a bite to eat.

Crab meat today, perhaps. Or pork.

Name: Hotaru Otani

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Personality: If you're looking for a BFF and your search has brought you to Hotaru...you'd better keep looking. Abrasive at best and downright hostile at worst, Hotaru would sooner punch you than rely on you. If you offer her a hand, she'd probably slap it away. And don't expect a compliment from her either. Her calling you a friend would be a sign of the apocalypse coming. Indeed, Hotaru really hates getting along with people...or does she?

It doesn't take a genius to realize that, even more than she is antisocial, Hotaru is deceptive. Almost anything she says outside of her suit (and a fair few things in it) should be considered lies. Her antisocial personality is most definitely not a defense mechanisim. She'll undoubtedly trust anything you say to her. There's absolutely not something she's hiding about her past. And above all else, she most certainly, undebatably, indisputably, undeniably hates everybody, but has no problem putting her faith in others at all.

Brief Backstory: Native to Tokyo, Hotaru's story is largely a mysterious one. Not much is known for certain in her earliest years; all that is is that she was orphaned at a young age. It would seem that Hotaru understands the family circumstances that led up to this event, but has refused to share them. From the moment she came into contact with the world beyond her dysfunctional little family, Hotaru was cold and harsh with others. Needless to say, it wasn't very helpful in making new friends.

Due to her antisocial personality, Hotaru wound up pretty friendless. It was fine by her; her dislike for others was seconded only by her policy of relying on herself and only herself. However, there's not much to say beyond all that. She's remained orphaned because nobody wants to adopt her (which is absolutely her fault for being such a bitch), and now it turns out she's got what it takes to be a magiclad girl.

Abilities: As the captain of the Track & Field Club, Hotaru's got a pretty strong and swift set of legs holding her up.

Powers: Donning Hotaru's MagiGear, given the label High Voltage, gives her the unique ability to generate electricity. Not manipulating it, not absorbing it, and not firing it. Just generating it. With confidence in her abilities, Hotaru synchronizes well with High Voltage, and of course, she's able to fly just like any magitech girl. The suit's visor is designed to shield her eyes from the flashes her Arc Cannon makes when it fires.

Weapon(s): Arc Cannon
Hotaru's weapon is a large cannon that takes the entirety of her right arm to wield. While she can certainly smack somebody with it up close, the Arc Cannon's true specialty lies in ranged combat. It's meant to fire bolts of lightning, but it's just as capable of firing anything you can stuff into it; grenades, supplies, even small missiles. Of course, its real purpose is to fire lightning, thus its name. It works by absorbing electricity Hotaru generates and condensing then unleashing all of it. This also means Hotaru controls how powerful each shot is.

It was built with the principle of enabling an offensive use of Hotaru's affinity with electricity that can be used from a safe distance, but there are safety measures. Above all else, the exhaust on the side opposite Hotaru is actually a motor that triggers when the gun is fired and pushes against the gun's recoil, so that the Arc Cannon's massive recoil doesn't damage Hotaru's arm when she uses it. Even with the motor in place, however, the gun's got a nasty kick to it, so firing in succession is impossible. Her visor is a second safety measure, put in place so the flashes from her gun don't blind the girl. However, using too much power can make the recoil stronger than the motor was meant for, damaging Hotaru's arm.

Conductive Suit
Hotaru's High Voltage suit has the ability to conduct electricity. What this means is that Hotaru is able to generate electricity in parts of her body where the suit covers her, and electrocute whatever the "live" parts of the suit touch. However, Hotaru only uses this if her Arc Cannon isn't available, as getting up close to the enemy isn't quite her style.

A Great Bloody Mess

I'd prefer to see another Greyson post before I post so that I can cover Priscilla and Hisako in the same post. However, if Mach doesn't post by Thursday, I'll put something up for just Priscilla.

just so I don't come back tomorrow to find someone beat me to it, just putting out there that I'm working on an electric-power girl.

Not sure if I should be checking the magical_girl or mecha_musume tags :\

Using them both draws up no results, so...

All that said, I should have something for all my characters tomorrow.

Suddenly, everybody wants a piece of Blackhawk. Luckily, there's plenty to go around.

I think Zeta and Necrohead world be a good tag-team. One is an artificial being of science meant to stop crime, and the other is an artificial being of magic resurrected with the intent of helping it run rampant...and in the end also became a crime-stopping hard-to-kill heroine.
