While watching the match the Cadet had retreated into the sparse shade of a palm tree. He was definitely done exploring for now, so he got cozy and leaned against the tree's trunk with a lemonade in hand. As far as spectators went, he was one of the louder ones. He'd been amused with Cerberus' mixture of cheers and jeers, and joined in with their enthusiastic callouts - in support of Sakura, of course.

The day was wearing on, by then it was already late in the afternoon. Evening would be quickly approaching, which seemed to be the queue for the missing Seekers to start reconvening on the beach. Princess Peach and Hat Kid found their way to the estate, and Blazermate returned with two strangers tagging along beside her. To the newcomers the Cadet waved his hand, accompanied by a jovial "Hey there!" They'd come to the beach at a good time if they wanted a show, as beside the main attraction of the beach battle was the light show of spirit fusion.

He hadn't been paying much attention to what Kamek was explaining until she actually demonstrated. Something to force the fusion into a specific body part? That was pretty handy! Although the Cadet had to agree with Geralt, in principal at least. Fusing had only been for necessity for him. In fact with the princess here and pulling spirits from people anyway, he wondered if he should have Jamaica removed. The Cadet glanced down at his chest, but all he saw was his own skin - slightly darker after the fusion, tinted red from the sun. He'd briefly checked his appearance that morning in the inn, and he didn't particularly dislike the changes. The rigging and water walk ability had been extremely useful as well. ...was it disrespectful to be thinking like that? She'd been her own person, not just a power-up, though the Cadet hadn't known her. But it wasn't like she could come back either. It would probably be best to keep her spirit, especially if it would help get used to the process. He didn't really want to be fusing with anything, but if things kept getting more and more difficult for them then he might not have much of a choice.

The Ace Cadet looked back toward the brawl, and then out over the ocean where a huge vessel was taking up most of the scenery as it passed. His armor was still sitting in the sand, facing the vast blue as well. I should probably gather it up, he thought. Though he wasn't looking forward to donning it again while it (and he) was covered in sand. Maybe he could ask Bowser to wash it down with those water cannons on his back once they got back to Limsa proper?

There was another person heading towards them on the beach, and once close enough they were easily recognizable as Nadia. The Cadet beamed and waved at her as she approached. She brought with her a bunch of money and a suggestion for dining. After Peach's question, the Cadet nodded towards Cerberus. "What they said."

Nadia came over and laid a hand on his shoulder. He barely suppressed a yelp when she squeezed it, the slight stinging pain sunburns already starting.

"Yeah, that's what happens when you hang out with Carapaceons. I think they were trying to turn me into one of them," he laughed. Speaking of, he looked over at Blazermate where she chatted with her new friend, hoping to grab her attention. "Hey, Blazermate? Would you mind using your healing beam on me?" Hopefully it would just zap him right back to normal.

"Oh! Right - I also got some loot. Here, take a look," he said as he turned his attention back to Nadia. He beckoned her to follow the short distance over to where the conspicuous chest sat by the shell radio. He popped it open and pulled the lid back, displaying the pearls and trinkets inside. "Ja-jaaan! Pretty Radalos, right? Anything strike your fancy, Ms. Fortune? Help yourself!"

Its contents were of course available to the rest of the Seekers as well, for what few items there were. The Cadet himself was mainly interested in pawning the pearls so he had some spending money. He fished the blue shell necklace out and offered it to the feral, pausing only when he took note of her change of clothes. "Maybe it's too much blue, but here.

"So, where-" He'd wanted to ask about her own exploration and what she'd been up to, especially to bring back what she did. Not just her, but Kamek, Rika, and Link too - clearly they'd gotten up to something. But it might have had to wait to be discussed over dinner, as there was a crack and a cheer coming from the battle between to the two street fighters. A decisive victory for Sakura it seemed, and a newly freed Karin. Though the look in the later's eyes dissuaded the hunter from looking at the girls' embrace for too long. Instead he looked back to Nadia and Princess Peach and raised his eyebrows. Seems they'd be departing for dinner soon after some explanations. Hopefully the restaurant could fit them all. Maybe they had a patio.

The various explanations about the world in general for the benefit of the newly freed went on a little longer. Primrose wondered if they shouldn't draw up some kind of pamphlet to hand out at this point. She listened in, planning to fill in any blanks for her fellow Traveler later. For his part Therion made sure to absorb all of the information being told to him, though he rolled his eyes when Midna classified him as a mercenary after his question.

"Har har," he grumbled at the imp. He was no sell sword... well, he wasn't before. But if he was to be traveling around helping the Seekers, whether by utilizing his thieving skills or otherwise, he only thought it fair to get some compensation for it. He wasn't the kind of person that would just do things out of the goodness of his heart, or so he liked to convince himself. As Midna went on, Therion didn't seem happy with her answer that a princess was bank rolling the adventure. It cut a little too close to home and his deal with Cordelia Ravus. Even so he made a vague gesture of agreement in Tora's direction as the nopon described all the horrific things they'd dealt with just that day. Though he would take dungeon delving over nothing if there were some shiny things to procure, having gained some experience with it over the last couple of months traveling in Orsterra. Before the whole universe combination thing had happened. He didn't care much about being branded a criminal or whatever the large rabbit earred lady was going on about considering his profession, but he did note that Primrose had a frown on her at that news. No going back to that spa then, at least from that entrance, she thought sadly.

There was, apparently, an actual mercenary among the groups newest additions in the form of the cyborg ninja. Therion gave Raiden a once over and ultimately looked away without formally introducing himself, still a bit miffed he'd been unwittingly fooled by Raiden's disguise. Besides, he hadn't actually introduced himself to the other Seekers either, Primrose had done it for him. She did no such thing now though. The dancer had taken her own seat in the shade, petting an ice antillion in order to keep it from wandering too far from her. With Raiden's introduction she nodded her head to him in greeting. "My name is Primrose," she said simply. "Glad to have you." Given that she was sitting in the sand overheated, sweaty, and tired she didn't bother to turn on the charm for the cyborg, but she did offer him something of a smile.

She turned away as everyone else said their greetings. Drawing her knees up to her chest, Primrose folded her hands atop them and rested her head on her arms. Physically she was all healed up, but while still fatigued Primrose decided to conserve as much energy as possible and wait out the time by people watching. She could tell that Therion, who lay not far off, was just as exhausted as she was. Maybe even more so. He was stretched out trying to look like he didn't have a care in the world, but the tight line of his posture said otherwise. She turned her attention to the Phantom Thieves where they sat in a loose circle with Necronomicon overhead. Not that anyone needed more heat, but it did warm her heart to see. Once everyone got a good rest she'd have to follow up with Panther a little.

Most of the others were still in various states of dozing and recovering after the battle, or in the case of poor Raz stewing innards. Her eyes quickly moved on from the boy and trailed over to Tharja, and she wondered what the woman would do now. Big Band struck up a tune for Tharja's sake, and the dancer was content to listen to it until their allies came to pick them up.

You Can Become a Hero!

Touko from Tokyo

_______________________________________________ // INFO D A T A Full Name - Touko Tachibana (橘 統子) Hometown - Tokyo, Tokyo Prefecture, Japan Quirk Type - Transformation Gender - Female - // PERSONALITY P E R S O N A L I T Y Ambitious Rather than wanting to be the best, Touko has a very strong prove 'em wrong mentality. It's okay if no one believes in her, because she believes in herself. She pushes herself with studies and training, attaining greater heights while smugly looking back at her haters with a smirk that says see? Child's play! Blunt She tells it like it is, whether good or bad. Sparing someone's feelings makes no sense, and Touko will happily tell people when they aren't making sense. She is directly honest with others, and with herself. She is forthcoming with her own weaknesses and doesn't hide them - with enough work they'll become strengths anyway. Logical...? Touko is not a genius, and she doesn't pretend that she is one. Some of her thoughts and actions may not be the smartest, but they make sense to her. Touko considers everything before she does it, sometimes following lengthy trains of thought before she makes a decision. She claims to only make the logical choice, but her mind is an enigma.

Physical Description She is short. She is skinny. Her hair and clothes are unkempt. Her personal style is made up of whatever she thinks looks cool when worn by celebrities and anime characters. Her skin is pallid and the dark bags under her eyes are always present. She looks less like a hero hopeful and more like a hikikomori. At least her glasses are always shiny and clean. Personal History Touko's backstory isn't very exciting. She grew up in the heart of Tokyo, surrounded by people and color and lights. Her mother passed away before she even got a chance to know her, but her father tried to make up for it by spoiling his daughter with anything she could ever want. He worked long hours, and while at home Touko was alone most of the time. She turned to media and the internet to fill the void of loneliness. Her quirk manifested early, and so she had always felt connected to her little blue screens. School was bearable until the start of junior high when childhood friendships became strained. Top of her classes, Touko was the victim of many a rumor stated she cheated her way there with her quirk. They were wrong of course, but Touko wasn't above getting the most out of her quirk anyway so she didn't bother to refute it. She became more of a loner during this time, but kept up her studies until she was accepted to Ishin Academy. Character Arc Touko doesn't know why she wants to be a hero. Hell I don't even know why she would want to be. Her main motivation was proving she could do what no one thought she could. Now that she's a part of Ishin's student body, she will have to really discover her heroic side. I'd also like for her to make some emotional connections with other characters, the kind where you would leap before looking in order to help them. Quirk Description Prepare to be amazed as Touko demonstrates her quirk: TECHNOVORE. This quirk allows Touko to "consume" pieces of technology and manifest their uses as though they were inherent parts of her body. She does not literally eat the tech, instead they are be pushed into her through her skin where they stay until she ejects them or they are forced out. At the moment she can only hold one piece of tech at a time - eating another will make the first one pop out. She can use any piece of technology, primitive or modern, though not all are useful. If she consumes a lightbulb, she will be able to emit light. If she consumes a magnet, she can change or charge her own magnetic field. If she consumes a USB drive, she will be able to know it's contents even if encrypted as it will be part of herself. Technology like computers and cellphones that have too many functions cause her to become dizzy and nauseous, she won't be able to use them at her current level. Likewise if she eats something malfunctioning or infected with a computer virus, she will become ill with flu-like symptoms.

_______________________________________________ // INFO D A T A Full Name - Riona Fuwari (風和 凛桜) Hometown - Abashiri, Hokkaidō Prefecture, Japan Quirk Type - Transformation Gender - Male - // PERSONALITY P E R S O N A L I T Y Simple He's not dumb... okay, maybe a little. It's just that super complicated things go way over his head. He's decent at schoolwork and can follow a plan no problem, just don't ask him to memorize a ton of steps. Riona is the kind of person that thinks with their heart, even if he'd never admit it. He's also really bad at lying and keeping secrets. Aggressively Masculine It was his coping mechanism in his more sensitive years in regards to his quirk, and now it's become a part of him. He takes effort not just to present himself as, but to embody strength, boldness, and honorableness. And sometimes plain aggressiveness in and of itself. Similarly he avoids anything that may make him come off as weak, and tends to try and hide his emotions. Protective Riona is a 'ride or die' kind of person. When he bonds with someone, it's for life. He is willing to go to bat for his friends and family as many times as it takes, stand up for them and physically protect them. He'll basically do anything for his loved ones. It's also a little bit of a weakness, as it they ask him for something he won't say no - though it might come with some empty complaints first. His sisters loved to get him to do things for them.

Physical Description Average height, with broad shoulders, tan skin, and bright eyes. If he were to grow his hair out it would be wavy, but he usually keeps it cut and styled. Riona has a few extra traits inherited from his father, but unfortunately they are aesthetic only and not related to his quirk. When not in school uniform he prefers traditional Japanese clothing or comfy, baggy clothes otherwise. Personal History Riona comes from a hardy family. The Fuwari clan has lived in Hokkaidō for many generations now, far North on a little ranch that was just as tenacious as the people that tended it. His quirk runs in the family too, it's one that he shares with his two little sisters, his mother, grandmother, great-grandmother... and so on. It's true that the quirk tended to manifest in the female side of his family, but his great-great-great-grandfather had it too, and he was the one that founded their home! Still, it was a bit of a blow to the ego when his own dad had a much cooler quirk that wasn't inherited, and the local kids relentlessly teased him about it. After years, he's gotten over it... well, for the most part. Riona knew he wanted to be a hero since his early childhood. Though no one in his family had anything to do with the pro-hero world, his mother and father set an excellent example of being protectors and Riona admired them both. Life was simple enough, but it wasn't uncommon that the Fuwari clan had to deal with their fair share of problems - from monsters rising from the ocean or coming from forests in the North, to hooligans that rode out of their little town looking for fun but ended up on their ranch and making trouble, to capitalists always looking to sabotage their property, and of course the natural force of nature. Through it all his parents remained stalwart, and when he was old enough Riona helped out eagerly. The family wasn't always successful a defending their little slice of life. Failure resulted in ruined crop, injured livestock; and once, the loss of the third Fuwari sister, though none of them talk about that. Ultimately it was these mounting failures that pushed Riona to his path of applying to Ishin. If he could save people, help out the little guys in the world, then he'd be happy. Character Arc Originally he was built with the disconnect between rough personality and cutesy quirk in mind. Really I just think I'd have fun playing a character like this. My goal is to have him eventually chill out, open up, and make some deep friendships. A lot of things about him were left vague with the intention to flesh them out through writing. I'd also like for Riona to be the kind of characters that others can bounce off of in the same way, and be a person for other students to lean on and confide in. Quirk Description The name of Riona's very cool and amazing Quirk is: Fluffy. He didn't name it. He'd change it if he could. His quirk allows Riona to grow extremely thick and soft fur anywhere on his body. Not just a layer of fur like your common animal, but a large amount - and quickly. He can localize the growth, say just to his hand and make the world's most comfortable bludgeon. Or he can rapidly become one giant fluff ball by growing it everywhere. His control over his quirk is fairly good, and he can easily 'pop off' chunks of the fluff so he has more options... though he can only do a little bit at a time for now, so it's extra uses are fairly limited. Plus any fluff not connected to Riona ends up dissipating after a minute or two. The quirk has it's pros and cons. Because if it's density it is extremely effective at defending against blunt impacts. It can stop a moving object's momentum pretty handily too. On the flip side, anything sharp enough can slice through it. The fluff is an excellent conductor for static electricity, but also easily flammable. The fluff is not completely waterproof, but it is water resistant - too much water will make it soggy and heavy, stopping Riona from moving if he's grown a lot of it. Naturally it's an amazing help against the cold. It also makes Riona the best hug-giver in class.

Kennedy Flats

17 | Male

_{Character Synopsis}

A single child whose family is one of those that grows and ships Mistralton's produce. Kennedy - or "Ken" as his parents call him - has worked the farm all his life, developing a knack for observing and caring for living things. This of course included Pokémon, as many species both tame and wild visited the gardens. Protecting the crop from the latter meant learning to battle, and he grew decent at it... not that any of his peers would know. Kennedy was a good student, but never the most social. Though not shy, he had always been quiet and deferential, and he usually hurried home after classes to spend time with his Pokémon instead because his previous attempts to make human friends failed more often than not. Now in his final year, it's Kennedy's last chance to get close to his classmates. The goal: obtain at least one (1) human friend. He joined the academy's battle team as a late addition hoping to do just that. Of course, battling wild Pokémon is a lot different than battling a trainer, and his lack of personal skills might interfere in the friendship aspect, but he's willing to give it his all.
