Fantasy New Oasis City: Gangsters Edition (CHARACTERS)

[Anne Boolean]

(Face claim: Shishio Satsuki from Daytime Shooting Star)​

NAME: Jordi Calisto
ALIAS: Float
AGE: 24
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Questioning/unsure
ETHNICITY: Tauredian
BIRTHDAY: January 14th
GANG: Sapphire Dragons
DISTRICT: South District
SENIORITY: 1 year
RANK: Rookie

APPEARANCE: He has peach-colored skin and green eyes. His hair is brown and he stands at 5'9. Due to his muscular dystrophy, his frame is rather slim, and he only weighs around 140 lbs. He has no notable marks or body modifications.

WEAPON: Throwing knives

JINX: Telekinesis; he can move and levitate things with his mind. He is able to lift more mentally than he would physically and can lift multiple things at once. The range of his telekinetic abilities extends past his own physical reach up to 30 feet away from him. Due to being unable to use his legs, he uses his jinx to levitate and hover to wherever he needs to go.

WEAKNESSES: Like physical strength, his telekinetic strength has limits. The combined weight of all the objects he has picked up currently (aside from his own body) cannot exceed the weight that an average man can physically lift. The further away the object is, the harder it is to lift.

PERSONALITY: He comes of as very polite and refined due to being tutored in royal etiquette. He was also taught to be assertive yet patient, as is expected from a good leader. The drive to lead was instilled in him from a young age, and suppressing it while working with those in higher ranks is difficult for him. He may have been pompous and harsh towards those less fortunate than him when he was still seen as royalty, but after escaping to New Oasis, he has had to live in squalor and has gained respect for the people he previously looked down upon.

LIKES/DISLIKES:
+ designer clothing
+ gold/jewelry
+ caviar
+ seafood/sushi
+ European goods (chocolate, cheese, liquor, cars, etc.)
+ general luxuries/status symbols
+ dogs
+ cigars

- rats
- fast food (eats it anyway)
- cigarettes (smokes them anyway)
- working in customer service (does so anyway)
- disrespectful people
- unexpected problems
- people disregarding his opinion
- low-quality goods (uses them anyway)

BACKSTORY: Jordi's real name is Nil Pires, and his family has been the royal family of Taured, a small country in Europe, for countless generations. When jinxes initially started emerging among humans, his ancestor was one of the first to acquire one. Along with that, they also developed muscular dystrophy, both of which have been passed down through the generations. As a person with the jinx ages, their telekinetic ability is strengthened, but less and less of their body is usable by them. This gift and curse became the new way to determine who was truly Tauredian royalty.

While he was 22, an unexpected coup took place. It came as a surprise to him, as he had always assumed his family had been fair and benevolent rulers. Regardless, his parents were killed by the insurrectionists, as well as any known aunts and uncles who would have claim to the throne after them. Those loyal to the royal family were able to help him escape to New Oasis in the US and start a new life under the name Jordi Callisto.. Sadly, they were not able to come with him, and he was left to fend for himself.

After a year of working minimum wage jobs to barely get by, he became accustomed to American culture and found out about the gangs. In order to better make ends meet, he ended up joining one. His original decision was the Albino Tigers due to their affluence, but his morals and his desire to learn how to be a just ruler aligned more with the Sapphire Dragons. He has now been a Dragon for one year.

Another goal of his is to find loyal allies with whom he can eventually take back his country. He has considered asking Nionet for aid, but believes it would be better to rise in the ranks and show her his usefulness before asking for a favor of such caliber.

(Face claim: Athena Cykes from Ace Attorney; Child face claim: Emma from Promised Neverland)​

NAME: Artemis "Arty" Barfield
ALIAS: Fontaine
AGE: 18
GENDER: Transwoman
SEXUALITY: Straight
ETHNICITY: American
BIRTHDAY: September 21st
GANG: Sable Serpents
DISTRICT: South District
SENIORITY: Less than a year
RANK: Rookie

APPEARANCE: In the appearance of her regular age, Artemis stands at about 5'7 and has long, ginger hair. Her frame is average, not really chubby but also not very skinny or muscular. When she de-ages to take on the appearance of her child self, her hair retains the same ginger color but is much shorter. She shrinks to stand at only 4'3 and has a skinnier, frailer build.

Spoiler: Child

WEAPON: Crossbow

JINX: Artemis has the ability to change her appearance to that of any age during her life span. She retains all current memories and mental capabilities regardless of age, and gains the physical capabilities she would have at the age transformed into.

WEAKNESSES: Although she can de-age herself, she cannot undo bodily harm done to her. A wound she received as an adult will stay even if she reverts to a child. On top of that, she will have to deal with any extra physical burdens that come with the age she transformed into, i.e., if she ages into and old woman, her body will be weaker and slower, or if she ages into a baby, her physical proportions will make it difficult for her to walk.

Furthermore, though this jinx can be used to trick people into lowering their guards, it does not have many more combat capabilities. Hypothetically, she could use it when she is an old woman to have the physical capabilities of her young adult body, but she would not be able to stay in that form forever. The jinx is physically taxing, and she would only be able to maintain a different age for at most 3 hours before requiring to revert back to her true age and rest.

PERSONALITY: Her spoiled nature from her privileged childhood continued into adulthood. Though she no longer lives in affluence, she still has the entitled and pompous attitude of someone who does. The positives though, are that she is well-educated, articulate in her speech, has refined manners, and is confident. She has a love for the finer things in life and has expensive tastes.

Due to her experience hunting, she has developed a strategic mindset. She is able to pinpoint weaknesses in other people, whether physical or in their character, and effectively use those against them. She is ever vigilant of her surroundings and is always thinking of plans to capture her prey or escape a dire situation in the moment. She also has knowledge about human anatomy and vital points, knowing what parts of herself to protect and where to strike her opponents for a quick kill.

LIKES/DISLIKES:
+ hunting
+ fine dining and breathing
+ high quality spirits and well-aged wine
+ lobster
+ filet mignon
+ challenging puzzles
+ designer clothes

- fast food
- generic brand clothes
- generic brand products
- thoughtless media
- losing

BACKSTORY: Artemis grew up as Jacob Lansing to John and Marie Lansing, one of the richest families in New Oasis. Due to living in the lap of luxury with parents who would provide her with anything her heart desired, she developed an attitude of arrogance and entitlement. One of her father's favorite hobbies was hunting and he shared it with her from a young age. Hunting animals because quite dull though, as they were predictable. They only ran on instinct.

One day, at the age of sixteen while she was on a hunting trip, morbid curiosity got the better of her and she shot one of the servants accompanying. It wasn't a fatal shot, and, filled with adrenaline, she chased him down to finish the job. This experience was nothing like when she had hunted animals. While animals only ran on instincts, the servant was capable of rational thought and therefore was harder to kill. The exhilaration she felt from this hunt led her to target humans more and more.

Her parents would do everything they could to cover her crimes up. Artemis grew tired of this though, as knowing she had a safety net took away some of the challenge. At the age of eighteen, she decided to leave home to continue pursuing her morbid hobby. Growing up, she had been well aware of the gangs, knowing her parents even did business with them from time to time. From the stories she had heard, the Sable Serpents caught her interest the most. Compared to the others, they were more ruthless, and she believed she would find many more opportunities to hunt while allied with them.


ETC:
- Her M.O. is to take on the appearance of a helpless little girl, lost and alone, and lure someone into helping. When she gets them alone in a secluded area, she returns to her true age and cuts them down. Due to presenting as a girl so frequently for her hunts, Artemis started questioning her gender identity. Not long into her career as a killer she realized she was transgender and started identifying and presenting as a woman while her true age as well.

- She took the code name Fontaine from Fountain of Youth.

 

[Anne Boolean]

(Face claim: Yumeko Jabami from Kakegurui)​

NAME: Adrienne "Ady" Hawthorne
ALIAS: Wendi
AGE: 25
GENDER: Cis Woman
SEXUALITY: "Why would I sleep with my next meal?" (Bisexual, mostly aromantic)
ETHNICITY: American
BIRTHDAY: December 3rd
GANG: Ruby Revenants
DISTRICT: North District
SENIORITY: 2 years
RANK: Junior

APPEARANCE: Adrienne has fair skin, black hair, and red eyes. She stands at 5'4 and has an average build, maybe a bit on the curvier side due to her love of food. The under layers of her hair are dyed purple.

WEAPON: Kitchen knife

JINX: She has the ability to experience the memory of a person she consumes a part of as her own. The more she consumes of them, the further into the past the memories she gets and the longer they feel as if it was something she personally experienced.

WEAKNESSES: Her jinx has no combat utility. If anything, it can only really be used in order to get information that someone is hiding. If the person she is consuming has memories erased, she won't be able to see those either.

PERSONALITY: Eccentric is probably the best word to describe Adrienne. She's confident and outgoing, but either she does understand social norms or chooses to ignore them. Her mind is often fixated on one thing and one thing only: food. She's upfront and has no reservations about asking those who know about her "diet" whether they would like to gift her a part of them.

Underneath the insanity, she is rather depressed and is regretful towards her past. She longs for a way to be able to go back and change it, and relive her childhood in a better way.

While at work or around people who aren't aware of her cannibalistic tendencies, she appears to be a polite, fun-loving girl. Her bosses would say she is intelligent, diligent, and a hard worker, and her coworkers would describe her as easy to get along with and fun to work alongside. They would all have to admit she is fairly enigmatic though.

LIKES/DISLIKES:
+ Cooking
+ Different types of food
+ Visiting new restaurants
+ Logic problems/brain teasers
+ Animals
+ Alternative energy
+ Recycling

- People who eat meat
- Fur coats (and similar items which involve killing animals)
- Unethically sourced animal products
- Bland food

BACKSTORY: Childhood was hard for Adrienne. She grew up without a mother and had a dad who was mostly away trying to make ends meet. They lived in squalor, usually just barely getting by, and sometimes not having food on the table for days at a time. It was during one of such periods when she discovered her jinx as well as her taste for human flesh. A friend had cut themselves at school one day, and with how hungry she was, Adrienne couldn't stop herself from lapping up the blood. For a moment, she experienced a pleasant memory: a Christmas morning where her friend was opening up presents while among their loving family. The memory felt so real and as if it was her own, and the warmth from it gave her hope. But as her jinx wore off, the memory felt more and more impersonal, as if it was just a scene she had seen in a movie. Back in her own destitute life, Adrienne craved more. She would take drinks from the wounds of people around her to get her fix, but like the first time, she was left unsatisfied each time her jinx wore off.

After graduating high school, she opted to join the police academy, as college was too expensive. After joining the force, they found her jinx to be quite useful in terms of solving homicides. When there wasn't enough blood to drink, she was asked to try eating part of the body, and discovered new capabilities of her jinx. During her work though, she found herself receiving more memories and then losing them. For Adrienne, it was a high and then a crash in which she craved more. Needless to say, she developed an addiction. Soon enough, she was adding to the number of cases she was meant to solve. Although she had become aware of quite a few methods of covering up murders in her career, in order to have extra safety, she ended up joining the Tigers. She may not have had the most useful jinx or been a very capable fighter, but she was certain her affiliation with the police force would prove to be useful.

ETC:
- Her code name comes from Wendigo, a Native American cryptid which a person turns into after consuming human flesh.
- Aside from humans, she doesn't eat any meat (fish, seafood, or poultry as well). The animal products she uses are all ethically sourced.
- She supports veganism, although she still consumes animal products. She supports vegetarianism along with the consumption of animal products as long as they are ethically sourced.
- If you're joining her for dinner, don't eat any meat she prepares unless you have a craving for human. She has tricked a few of her new acquaintances like this before.
- She also picks up personality traits of the people she eats while the effects of her Jinx last. This leads to her having mannerisms and quirks similar to her latest victim.
- She loves pets! She has a dog, a cat, a parrot, and a lizard.
- She's a huge animal rights activist and supports causes to save the planet.
- She bikes to work and avoids riding in motor vehicles whenever she can.

Bob 00000

ALIAS: Mr. Grime
AGE: 24
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Heterosexual
ETHNICITY: Swedish
BIRTHDAY: May 2nd
GANG: Albino Tigers
DISTRICT: North District
SENIORITY: Two Months
RANK: Rookie
APPEARANCE:

Mr. Grime's of a rather standard height at Five Foot Seven, weighing around two hundred and ten pounds. His face is always obscured by his mask, and his trench coat consistently obscures much analysis of his physique.
WEAPON: Metal Briefcase
JINX: Negative Rift
Mr. Grime can open rifts into a sort of Negative space that exists in another layer of reality, entering it essentially makes him a living ghost to everything on the regular layer of reality. The rifts themselves only remain for about five seconds, but during that time anything that enters them will enter that negative space.

WEAKNESSES:
Grime Sight- Mr. Grime's trademark mask that he refuses to take off while acting as him limits his vision greatly, giving him a far larger blind spot than most.
Messy Combatant- A boon and a detriment in one, Mr. Grime has no discernable style of fighting and seems to change and mix-up his strategies and methods of fighting on the fly. While this can easily catch others off-guard, it can just as easily work against him.
Rampant Impatience- Grime isn't patient whatsoever, and can be led to outbursts in response to boring scenarios.


PERSONALITY: Mr. Grime is an emotional outlet for a repressed everyman, beleaguered by his static life and entranced by the anonymity that his alter ego is able to act under. Asa result, Mr. Grime himself is a rather bipolar figure. Speaking in exasperated and overdramatic tones, barely able to catch his breath at times and having jerky, discordant mannerisms that leave him always moving in one way or another. Completely at odds with the stoic mask he always wears, Mr. Grime is in a state of constantly fluctuating emotions, willing to accuse someone of betrayal forgive them and mourn his lack of faith in the span of a single sentence. Interacting with Grime can be exhausting for those unable to keep up with his fluctuating nature, but others aren't as lucky as to simply be exhausted.

Mr. Grime's intent on exploring anything and everything he can't do as a regular civilian, making him quite exploratory and Curious. He's an experimenter, seeing what concoctions create the most fun reactions. And while he's extremely likely to share that fun with others who are interested, his goals are completely self-centered. He sees his relation with the Albino Tigers as another extension of this need for fun, as big bad gangsters would have far more access to interesting scenarios. To see these ambitions through, Mr. Grime's worked to curtail several of his more eccentric peculiarities when working under the gang.

LIKES/DISLIKES:
+Fun
+A clean Desk
+Burnt Sugar
+Marjorie
+Magic Tricks
-Boredom
-Dusty Ceilings
-Wasting Time
-Success
-Removing the Mask

BACKSTORY: Bob was a good boy, he did everything he was supposed to throughout his youth. He followed every direction, listened to every instruction, learned every lesson and aced every test he was supposed to. When things were too messy, the other side proved quieter. He could learn effectively on the other side, and nobody could bother him there. It was there that he'd make the furthest headway into becoming a proper student, a functioning member of society. He was barely out of Highschool when he entered the workforce, and his skills allowed him to climb ranks at unprecedented speed. But Bob found the success unfulfilling, greatly unfulfilling.

That wasn't right, he had everything a person could want: the admiration of peers, growing financial wealth, swift success with the fairer sex. What more could someone want?

He didn't find this answer until he used his Jinx for the first time in over two years, relaxing in the other side for a few hours. It was while he was in there that he had a rather improper idea. It wasn't too bad, just a couple harmless goofs and gaffs with some of his distant neighbors. But soon Bob recognized he had a desire for more mischief, a desire for more than just mere success, a desire for something more. Recognizing that acting out such desires with his face bare would be bad, Bob donned the face of Mr. Grime. A personal joke at first, Bob would go on to use him as an outlet for years of subdued thoughts.

Mr. Grime became a recognized criminal in the North District, a rather sporadic fellow with a dandy zest for life. Though he's known for a blatant and almost exuberant disregard for any kind of laws or order, what most aren't aware of is that he's responsible for numerous crimes committed by small time criminals, most of which have worked for him at one point or another in the last year. Despite this notable spree, his rather anonymous nature has led to him only being recruited into the Albino Tigers two months ago.​

    NAME: Basilio “Bassy” Medved De La Torre
    ALIAS: Basilio Coiro Seda || Basil
    AGE: 15
    GENDER: Male
    SEXUALITY: Bi
    ETHNICITY: Hispanic
    BIRTHDAY: July 1st, 2005
    
  • 
    
    GANG: No Gang
    DISTRICT: North District [Now]; South District [from 2005-2010]
    RANK: N/A
    APPEARANCE:
    Basilio is clearly tall for his age at the height of 5’8, made even more apparent by the fact that he’s typically only around women. He’s clearly no where near done growing as he constantly complains of growing pain.
    
    Clothing Style:
    Basilio dresses in name-brand shit. Even when he’s dressing in plain jeans and T-shirts they’re still obviously designer. His exceptions are when he’s decked out in graphic tees and anime shit. He’s got a fad going on with character hoodies recently.
    
  • 
    
    JINX:
    Blood Brothers:
    Basilio is capable of manipulating his blood to heal. Unlike his father he’s quite challenged to use it in other ways at his current state, nor does he specifically want to.
    
    WEAPON: Scissors
    Though Basilio hates the idea of violence at the insistence of his sister he has some extremely deadly scissors. Custom-made to work well for stabbing, but just as useful for standard use.
    
    WEAKNESSES:
    > Currently Basilio is only capable of Manipulating his own Blood
    > He cannot manipulate blood beyond 10ft
    > He cannot heal Diseases, only mending wounds and bone
    > He cannot heal at a cellular level
    > He cannot increase his own blood in any way, so typically he will be very faint after mending a serious wound
    > He has to actually cut himself to use his jinx, he can't move blood out of his own blood vessels typically it won't scar though as he heals it with whatever blood is leftover
    
    
  • 
    
    
    
    PERSONALITY:
    Basilio could easily be written off as a bratty kid to most. He's not one to mince words and has the same hard expression as his father without meaning to. He's in no way an angry person though and even though his talk can be rough at times he knows how to pull himself together and be soft when he needs to be, even though it's exhausting to him. He does his best to be the model kid despite that. He's got a good head on his shoulders and is always looking to the future. He doesn't expect much from anyone and is working his way up to being able to take care of his mom and sister so they don't need to keep relying on the whims of his stepfather. That said he hates dishonest work and especially violent people. While he'd rather stear clear of the entire gang system of New Oasis he's still gotta acknowledge that they keep low-level thugs in check usually, besides... Camaree and Rocio are in them now. Which means he has to keep an eye and an ear out for them.

    BACKSTORY:
    Basilio is the younger half brother to Rocio De La Torre, better known these days as Lucille Viviana Seda. Though he was born in the south district to Luna and Dimitri he rarely has memories of those days. His strongest memories of the south and his father come from the brief recollections of his being dragged along by his elder sister to sneak out and see his father. Though he remembers some moments of strange tenderness from the man the image is marred by the memory of his sister battling him just before they were forced to flee the south for good and change their family name. In reality his strongest memories have always been of cold empty walls with only his sister and mother for company. Though he’s never wanted for anything material or need wise he’s learnt to live with the fact that his family had to stay in line if they wanted peaceful lives. Even so every time he looks at his sister he can’t help but wish it happened sooner so that she would leave the gang life behind and enjoy having a pleasantly easy life.
    
    > July 1st, 2005: Born in South District
    
    > August 20th, 2006: Begins living his biological father again as his mother moves back with him
    
    > July 1st, 2009: Basilio makes good friends with a neighborhood girl, Anzelika, and the two stay talking even after Basilio moves all over the south and even for most of the time he lives in north.
    
    > August 1st, 2009: Stops living with his father as the family moves again. Despite this thanks to his older sister, he doesn't lose contact as he sometimes gets brought along in secret while their mother is working if they can outwit their sitter that day
    
    > February 14th, 2010: The whole family moves out of South into North. He's taught to never give his real name as he's now Basilio Coiro Seda, His mother is Diana Coiro Seda, and his sister is Lucielle Viviana Seda. He makes a few slip-ups but has it down by the time he starts school.
    
    > August 18th, 2010: Basilio awakens to his jinx as he heals up his own cuts when he falls down a wooden set of stairs when playing around with Rocio
    
    > September 1st, 2010: Basilio starts kindergarten in North
    
    > October 8th, 2011: Rocio comes home really injured from a fight against Dimitri. He never attempts to meet with his father again after this taking the fight as him throwing away his connection with both children.
    
    > January 1st, 2012: His elder sister dyes her hair and begins to wear colored contacts. Lucy gives him a heart-to-heart about being there for their mother if she ever isn't. He doesn't understand most of it at the time and instead gets really worried but still agrees.
    
    > September 12th, 2013: Basilio finally understands Lucy's joined the Tigers as he and his friends spy on her fighting with some rival gang members. She defends them but doesn't let up that they're related. He'll grow to see all the gangs as his enemy from then on.

[Nobody Special]

Spoiler: SHINO

NAME:
Shino Tan

ALIAS:
Exabyte

AGE:
22

GENDER:
Male

SEXUALITY:
Bisexual Biromantic

ETHNICITY:
Japanese/Thai

BIRTHDAY:
September 18th, 1998

GANG:
Sapphire Dragons

DISTRICT:
East District

SENIORITY:
3 years (Joined September 18th, 2017)

RANK:
Junior

APPEARANCE:
Shino stands at 5'10 with a lean, toned body, trained for mobility and endurance instead of strength. He has a few scars throughout his body from fights and his past. Did I mention that his head is a computer monitor? I don't think I did! Shino's head is a working computer, equipped with three USB ports, a disc drive, and a small webcam that he uses to see. Since he doesn't have a mouth, he communicates with his screen, making words, emoticons, and images appear during conversations. If he is connected to wifi, people can use Shino's head to browse the web, play music, and download files (they are saved into his short-term memory, so they need to be transferred to a real computer before he forgets about them). When he isn't communicating, Shino's screen is pitch black. Shino's monitor can break, and when it does, it slowly repairs itself over time like a healing wound.

WEAPON:
Kusarigama - Shino wields two linked-chain scythes.

- He has training in Jeet Kune Do, rarely using his weapon unless his opponent has one too.

JINX:
Static Exoskeleton
Utilizing the static from his monitor-head, Shino is capable of creating an exoskeleton that acts as a protective armor.
- In its base form, Shino's exoskeleton is very durable and resistant to high amounts of shock/force. After receiving so much shock to their standard exoskeleton, Shino can return the full force of the received shock in the form of attacks or utilize it as limited strength. Doing this, however, results in Shino being unable to use his exoskeleton for 2-10 hours, depending on the amount of force he returns.
- Additionally, Shino is also able to switch between elemental immunities, allowing him to give his static resistance to heat, cold, and electricity. He can only use one at a time, each use only lasts 10 seconds, and has a cooldown time of 10 minutes before the next use is available.
- Finally, Shino is capable of projecting his static into two large hands, for a more offensive variant of his jinx.

WEAKNESSES:
- Shino can only utilize one immunity at a time, leaving him susceptible to the others. Whatever damage his exoskeleton receives, his real body will mimic.
-- For example, if he were to activate his cold immunity, and someone shot him with a fireball, he would heavily damaged by it and feel the pain from the damage on his actual body.

- If he returns the shock he received, his exoskeleton will be disabled for at least two hours.

- If Shino decides not to release the shock he has retained, the exoskeleton becomes significantly weaker, and can even be cracked and broken. Depending on where it cracks, Shino's bones can break.
-- Ex: If the exoskeleton cracks in the rib area, some of Shino's ribs would break.

- He cannot move at his natural speed with the exoskeleton active.

- Technically, Shino can be 'hacked'. Do with that what you will!

PERSONALITY:
Despite his otherworldly appearance, Shino is surprisingly average. He is optimistic, respectful, and friendly, always trying to brighten others' days in any way he can, but is also very reserved and timid at times, especially when he doesn't feel comfortable. He cares a lot about others, and is very selfless when it comes to protecting others. When it comes to people he doesn't know well, especially members of other gangs, he closes himself off and dons a mysterious, quiet persona. He can be very insecure about his head, and gets very flustered and shy when people stare at him for too long or bring a lot of attention to it. Shino devotes himself to helping and protecting others from harm, and if he sees people in danger, or in need of someone to talk to, he is quick to run to the rescue. While he is intelligent, he has a few airheaded-moments where he can be very clumsy and gullible. He scares a lot of children, so if he runs into any younger people who aren't terrified of them, he becomes attached fast.

Because he spent most of his life in seclusion, he is very naïve to city life, and enjoys learning about new things.

LIKES/DISLIKES:
+ Video Games
+ Movies
+ Model Trains
+ Computers ( He tries talking to them, but they never talk back D: )
+ Nice people
+ Playing the Kalimba
+ Sand Gardening
+ Making friends

- Ghosts (He's terrified of them!)

BACKSTORY:
Shino has no knowledge of who his parents are. When he was born, his parents left him outside of a temple in the East District, where he was raised by non-verbal monks. Because of his appearance, whenever he went outside, he always came back beaten and bruised due to bullying by other children his age. It come to the point where Shino was kept a secret for the rest of his childhood to avoid any further problems. He never held any grudges against the people who chastised him for being different-- the only thing on his mind was the people who weren't protected the way he was.

While living in the temple, Shino was trained in martial arts, and learned how to play the Kalimba. He spent a lot of his time honing his martial arts skills, to be able to protect others from harm. Eventually, he met Xavier Brax when he enrolled into the temple, and the two became friends. Brax was able to graduate from the temple at a much earlier age than Shino, mainly because Shino's clumsiness and gullible nature was hindering him. Eventually, at the age of 18 ( July 2017), Shino graduated from the Temple, and set out to become a functioning member of society. While Shino was successful in protecting people, and began gaining a reputation in the East and Rose districts, he had a very hard time finding a job thanks to his head. Because of this, he joined the Sapphire Dragons on his 19th Birthday (September 18th, 2017) after hearing of their accepting community, and has been working with them ever since.

  Giselle is the tinkling of glasses, clashing in celebration of bygone days, past and future. She is the amber poison trickling down parched throats screaming for relief from the daily routine of suffering. The taste of battery acid welling from reddened eyes in the face of hopelessness. A whole lot of suffering bundled up in an unwavering smile that appears more self-derisive than mocking when she declares to have no ambitions while laughing at those that do; a strange kind of pleasure in those squinting eyes that never reveal a shred of emotion. Cloaking pessimistic remarks in a realist's reasoning all while indulging in everything considered immoral.

• appearance.

  Giselle stands at the height of 5'7 with an athletic build from years of practicing ballet. As such, she also possesses impeccable posture, great flexibility, and a noticeable grace in her movements. She has since her ballet days, filled out quite remarkably with the weight of 60 kg going to all the right places and curves; something which she tends to cover-up daily. Her style of clothing could therefore be described as modest or even grandma-like, as she likes to wrap in shawls and long skirts. Her face has a natural meekness to it in the upward slanting brows and the whiskey brown eyes that almost seem to be on the cusp of tears in their squinting composure; the umber hair framing her edges in all round arches the final touch of softness.

• history.

  Rumour has it that Giselle is originally from a wealthy family. She apparently excelled at school and had no troubles while growing up. In what would be a peculiar turn of fate, she "befriended" Akira Tsuchiya as a youth and reunited with him after she reportedly dropped out from her language major. Nowadays she spends her time idling away at bars.
  
  

  rumour manipulation.

  User can create and manipulate existing rumors, implant them into the mind of others and manifest them into reality.
  - The bigger the rumour the more believers it requires to manifest it. Ex: a workplace romance would need the majority of the employees to believe in the rumour for it to come true.
  - Requires time to work.
  - Implanting rumours straightforward is mentally taxing for Giselle and requires skin to skin contact.
  - A rumour has to be "plausible".
  - The ability is limited by the user's creativity.

  A feathered fan with hidden blades.

APPEARANCE:


WEAPON: Double-Bladed Polearm


JINX: Ectoplasm Manipulation
-Is able to extrude their essence from their body, allowing them to use it to interact with mechanical non-electric machines and objects such as cars, locks, guns and other non-electronic objects. In doing so they are capable of unlocking complex keyways in little time and possessing non-electronic machines to use and control as they wish.

-Through the use of their essence Raven is capable of resurrecting the dead for a time, allowing their whole mind, personality and being to return though under her sway. In doing so she is able to question and retrieve information from individuals even after they have been killed as well as learning other information that they may have that interests her. Depending on the size and the damage to the body this will last between a few seconds to a few minutes, as long as they can hold them together.

-Raven is capable of raising the truly dead in a puppeteering fashion, splitting her essence and flowing it into corpses to bring them up to fight. This is different from gaining information as the person’s personality does not return, simply their body. She can use this to turn the tables if outnumbered or to provide a safety screen for herself in terrible situations.

-Raven can force her essence out of her true body allowing her to inhabit other bodies, dead or alive. It is far easier to inhabit a dead body as there is not another being within to contest her control over their motor functions. In a dead body she is given full control and if the body is fresh enough their memories as well, this is not the case with living bodys where she must fight for every ounce of control.

WEAKNESSES:
If she is killed when possessing a living body she will die as well as dying in her true body. If a dead body she is possessing is destroyed she will also perish.

When using her abilities of raising the dead to fight Raven splits her essence and in turn limits what her body is capable of doing. She is incapable of fast movements or reactions, she is also incapable of fighting for herself during this time as she is in essence puppeteering however many bodies she has raised for the duration and is dictating their movements and actions.

Raven’s abilities leave the room around her relatively cold, dropping the temperature shareply in relation to its ambient temperature. Due to this it is easy to tell when she is currently using her Jinx.

When using her Jinx Raven develops an intense lack of empathy, compassion and develops a deep lack of preservation for other life. She will use whatever corpses or bodies she has around her to finish a contract or job disregarding others feelings and thoughts on the matter.

When manipulating objects, possessing machines or extruding her essence Raven’s body is left empty and wherever she left it. While it will remain there it will begin to decay as normal if left for too long without a means of preservation. One could destroy her body when she has left it but will not destroy her in the process though it will rob her of a vessel and her actual body.

If left for to long without a means of containing her essence Raven will simply fade away into nothingness requiring her to have a vessel or container for her to push herself into. This could range from a body to a can of soda, anything to keep her essence from being dissipated away into nothing.



PERSONALITY:
Bright, somewhat energetic and very outgoing Raven is an individual always looking to see what is on the other end of the street, whether this be in relation to life or from a figurative sense. She is a very driven person who very seldom lets obstacles get in her path be them people or inanimate objects. She tends to be distant and withdrawn from people despite being around and making herself known to the different gangs for a multitude of jobs.

Despite this bright and gleaming exterior Raven hides a dark interior that is brought out and enhanced by her Jinx. She tends to be cold, foreboding and lacking compassion and understanding in tough situations. She is not afraid to use a friend's dead body if it furthers an objective or assists in her success. She will use anything and everything at her disposal to get the job done and cares little for how others feel about her use of bodies for cannon fodder. To her the passage of an individual is the end and at that point their body becomes an inanimate object to be used for whatever is required to finish what they started.
