"The underestimated enemy is often the most deadly."
When one first catches a glimpse of Azure, they may be initially confused to find her to be completely unarmed. However any who would try and lay hands on the heiress would find she is anything but. Her lace gloves aren't simply a statement of high fashion, but a potent weapon. Crafted with specially designed fabrics, these gloves are able to be infused with dust, allowing Azure to cast Dust-based elemental strikes, her preferred elements being Ice and Lightning.
Fighting Style:
"You needn't worry about the enemies response if your initial attack is overwhelming."
Azure's fighting style is a far-cry from her other, having forgone weaponry all together in favor of her dust-laced gloves. This allows her to overwhelm her opponents with the fury of the elements, slinging ice and lightning from afar. This has given Azure a preference to fight from afar where she can cast her deadly barrage without hindrance. If forced into close quarters Azure is able to hold her own, as she is trained in martial arts and her dust-laced gloves provide some additional stopping power, and her agility allows her to avoid most attacks. Still, she shouldn't be left in close combat for to long as she simply isn't built to take hits. Using her Glyph' however, Azure is able to avoid being tied down by propelling herself quickly through the battlefield, ensuring she can continue to provide support unmolested.
Semblance: Glyph's
"It's a Schnee thing, you wouldn't understand."
As with most Schnee's, Azure has inherited the family semblance of Glyph's. These allow her to propel herself or an ally with astounding speed, as well as enhance her elemental attacks cast from Arkan Berühren. The most unique part of her semblance lies in her Summoning. Whereas her Mother and Aunt Winter are able to summon defeated enemies, Azure can summon what she refers to as Elemental's, aspects of the elements given physical form. This is an incredibly difficult and complex technique however, and furthermore requires Azure to have an intimate knowledge and understanding of the element. As of now she has only been able to summon a Frost Elemental, but even then she is unable to do so reliably.
Personality: Distant, shy and soft spoken are all words that properly describe the daughter of Weiss Schnee. While no where near the Ice Queen that her mother was, Azure is still a person that is hard to get to know, often trying to keep people at a distance. This largely stems from the hostile environment that she grew up in, surrounded by power hungry sycophants and often hounded by White Fang agents who still lusted for Schnee blood. While most children were brought up in a safe, supportive environment, Azure grew up with deceit, treachery and attempts on her life. The only people she is open towards is her brother Orion and father Neptune. This has unfortunately left her with another trait that she despises deeply and has tried to overcome for years, a deep distrust of Faunus, and a passionate hatred of the White Fang. It wasn't that long ago that the terrorist organization nearly succeeded in claiming hers and her brothers life. While she tries her best to be courteous, Azure can't help but feel queasy when near the animals.
Despite her standoffish nature, Azure is incredibly dependable and duty driven. Anything that is entrusted to her is in good hands, as she will do everything in her power to ensure she completes her task, and her word is as binding as a legal contract. This also means she has little patience for liars or those that seek to manipulate others. She views these people as honorless scum, worthy of little more than her ire.
If one were to get past her wall however they would find a girl with a great capacity for nurturing and love, and wishes to be able to share this with another, in spite of receiving so little in her own upbringing. For those she considers dear, there are no lengths Azure won't go to, willing to be a shoulder to cry on, an ear for listening, or a body in front of a bullet.

Bio: Daughter of Weiss Schnee and Neptune, twin of Orion and heiress to the SDC, Azure is a girl born into a position of great power and wealth, but also of vulnerability and isolation. Growing up Azure never saw her mother that often, who was consumed with her running the SDC or going off on Hunts to "get away from it all" as she put it. Something had happened to her in the final battle against Salem, something that the Ice Queen had never recovered from. Though she returned from the wretched creature's land, she didn't return whole. The only people she had in her life who seemed to care for her were her father and brother Orion. Most others she met seemed interested only in the power and prestige they could gain from being associated with her, something that the pale heiress quickly grew to despise.
So as she grew older, the list of people she interacted with shrank, until it consisted almost entirely of her family. More often than not she would be in the company of her brother, the two playing more often sparring with each other in hopes of escaping the hostile environment of their home. The servants often described them as being as thick as thieves, and to this day there is no one Azure trusts more than her brother. When he would disappear on occasion she would simply retreat into the library, delving into books concerning Dust.
Their father would often spend time training them in combat, though he found difficulty in training Azure as her fighting style was so radically different from most others. Eventually her training was taken over by none other than Weiss herself. It was one of the only times she saw her mother, teaching her about Dust usage and more importantly, the usage of Glyphs. It wasn't exactly pleasant mother daughter time, but Weiss' mastery over Glyph's and Dust was pivotal in her daughter learning how to develop her abilities.
These skills were put to the test far sooner than anyone had expected however. Over the course of years a splinter cell of the White Fang devoted its time to infiltrating the SDC and the Schnee family manor, and at 16 years of age the twins experienced their first assassination attempt. The manor was swarmed by White Fang hitmen, let in by a few turncoat staff. If not for their extensive training the young heirs would have likely made easy prey, but they held their own, Orion cutting down the would be assassins. Azure meanwhile put her newfound skills to good use, ice and electricity coursing through the air, felling a number of their assailant.
The White Fangs numbers began to tell over time however, and when the leader arrived, a massive lion faunus with an equally massive greatsword entered the battle. Orion threw himself in front of the beast, putting up an admirable fight to keep him from his sister, but he was ultimately overwhelmed, an arm cleaved clean off him in the process. Seeing her brother mutilated, Azure felt a fury the likes of which she had never felt, conjuring an elemental storm that tore through the room, tossing the lion from her wounded kin. Yet it still wasn't enough to bring the man down, as he seemingly willed himself through the freezing shards of ice and arcs of electricity before beating Azure into the ground, her aura shattered from the brutal assault. Instead of giving his prey an honorable kill, the lion decided to have some fun, and went to work carving out her left eye. After that the only sound she could hear was screaming, red enveloping her vision. Orion's timely intervention ensured she would retain at least one eye however.
It was only the arrival of their parents that saved the young Schnee's, Weiss and Neptune slaughtering the White Fang with reckless abandon, no mercy offered. Afterwards Weiss gathered her children in her arms and began to sob uncontrollably while Neptune rushed to get help. It was one of the few times Azure remembers feeling her mothers embrace.
After the 'incident' the Atlesian military were quick to offer their assistance in healing the twins, offering a synthetic limb and artificial eye to help restore a semblance of normalcy. Both twins rejected the offer. For Azure it was a mark of pride, that nothing would break her spirit. That she could stand on her own.
Appearance: Standing only at 5'3 and weighing 122 lbs, Azure is a petite girl and of a lithe build. Her hair is snow white and cut short, barely even reaching her shoulders, always kept soft and shining. Her right eye is a deep pool of sapphire, while her left is little more than a mess of scar tissue, covered by a white sash that she ties around her head. In almost all settings, be it relaxing at home or in the field of battle Azure will be in some form of dress. Just because she left Atlas, doesn't mean she had to leave behind good fashion after all.
"Just because I hunt Grimm, hardly means I can't look stunning doing it.'
"Am I under dressed? I'm under dressed aren't I...
"As surprising as it may be, I don't wear dresses to bed. Also get out of my room."
"Would you expect anything less from an heiress?"
Quirks:
- While it is rare, extreme stress can cause Azure to succumb to a panic attack.
- When lost in thought, Azure will sometime play with the sash covering her eye.
- On occasion Azure will speak some phrases in Old Atlesian (German), and has a distinct Atlesian accent.
Theme song:
This is also Azure's voice claim.
