Just as a means of having a fresh topic to post the characters and hold the discussions. I'm going to be posting updated profiles soon. Some of them need tweaking to go with what I've been working on as of late in the actual story, anyway.

*Appearance(Image):
Wishful Thinking OOC K10

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Claws
*Skills: Extremely Agile, Escape Artist, Climbing, Thieving
Abilities: K has incredibly powerful senses, even for a Cat Zum. These senses lead to a hyper awareness of her surroundings and an incredible center of balance. Her speed and reflexes are also far and away beyond human as her top land speed, pushing herself, is somewhere around 70 miles per hour.
Affinity: Zuman
*Experience Level: Rookie
Item(s): K goes nowhere without her hat.
Norn: Norn Map, "Dig Claws"

Personality
*Likes: Fish, food, teasing people, moving around, adventure & adventure books, Norn Legends, winning, herself, yarn, collecting junk, pickpocketing
*Dislikes: Authority, large bodies of water, prejudice/discrimination, dogs
*Fears: Drowning
*Values: Adventure, fun, determination
*Bad Habits: Microscopically short temper, rashness,
*General Personality: A feisty but clever little orphaned cat Zum with dreams of being a renowned treasure hunter, but also a big ego that says she’s not only the cutest thing that ever was, but also that she can accomplish her dreams entirely on her own. K is hot-blooded and rambunctious. She can be a tad bratty, quite rash, and too ill tempered for her own good, but she’s undeniably driven. She absolutely refuses to give up for anything.
Trademark: Boundless appetite, volatile reaction to ears being touched or tail being grabbed, weaving "Meow" into sentences when excited, confused, or intrigued.

Background
Brother(s): ???
Sister(s): ???
Mother: ???
Father: ???
Non-Immediate Family: ???
*History: K is a cute little thing that people find difficulty taking seriously. Her number one goal in life is to be the world's greatest treasure hunter. However, she spends most of her time in a small town, stealing food and Geno (the currency of this world) from those who wouldn't miss them, all in the name of survival.

K spent the first 6 years of her life in a local orphanage, where she was constantly put down for her Zuman nature. The other kids would pick on her constantly. And while the house mother was wicked to everyone, K had it particularly bad. K's original name was given to her by that very house mother, but K no longer uses it and refuses to tell anyone what it was, implying that it was either derogatory, or she just has bad associations with the name.

K taught herself how to read, write, and do math beyond her Kindergarten level by spying on schoolhouse sessions, stealing books, and listening in on conversations merchants in the market were having. She raised herself on the streets for the next 9 years as a pickpocket.

General
*Name: Sabrina Bizari
Nickname(s): N/A
*Age: 23
*Gender: F
*Alignment: N/G
*Species: Human
Occupation: Norn Researcher, Inventor, Unofficially appointed engineer to the Kantor City Council
*Appearance(Image):
Wishful Thinking OOC Sabrin10

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): N/A
*Skills: Internationally recognized genius intellect
Abilities: None, really
Affinity: Science
*Experience Level: Beginner
Item(s): None
Norn: None

Personality
*Likes: Knowledge, Poetry, Science and technology, Magic, Norn, Myths & Legends, Ruins, Reading, Little Brother, Music
*Dislikes: Fighting, heights, being interrupted, talking with her parents, watching things go wrong
*Fears: Heights
*Values: Intellect, personal responsibility
*Bad Habits: Tends to try to fix everything on her own which, in turn, leads to a massive guilt complex.
*General Personality: The world “genius” was invented to describe people like Sabrina. A socially isolated and usually consumed by her work and endless pursuit of knowledge, Sabrina can drown herself in a puzzle and the rest of the world will become lights and noise. This absentmindedness comes with the hitch of her being virtually useless in mundane like. She’s a disaster of a cook, doesn’t know the first thing about cleanliness, and barely takes care of herself at all. The only thing that generally pulls her away from her world of numbers and figures is the connection she feels to those close to her. Particularly Cyan and her little brother, Harry. Beneath it all, Sabrina is incredibly vulnerable. Her pattern of independent success is what ultimately led to Sabrina’s feeling that everything she sees going wrong is something she could fix. But the when she fails to do so, the result is a sense of the crushing regret of her guilt complex. She fails to realize that not everything is her responsibility to fix.
Trademark: A sort of "Manic Mode" when presented with new Norn, "Eureka!" moments

Background
Brother(s): Harrison
Sister(s): N/A
Mother: Venicia
Father: Rialto
Non-Immediate Family: Unmentioned
*History: Regarded as a true genius basically since she could walk, Sabrina was home schooled until she was twelve, eventually being sent to Cliffreach Academy when her parents' careers started to take off. She excelled while there, though was socially isolated due to her intellect being far and away beyond that of every student and teacher there. She learned everything in about a year and after passing the supposedly un-passable test, "The Monster," did need to attend classes again for the next three years of her time at the school. After graduating, she moved to Kantor City, where she used her brilliance to usher in a new technological era for the city as Kantor became known as the most advanced city in the region.

Not long after her move there, she stumbled across the barely living Cyan, who'd been mauled by monsters. She was able to save Cyan by essentially transferring her soul into a robot copy of her body, thus making Cyan an assistant while she sought a means of restoring the damage down to Cyan's physical body.

Shortly afterward, she was presented with her little brother, Harry.

General
*Name: Nebu
Nickname(s): Mutt, Dog, Fido,
*Age: 183
*Gender: M
*Alignment: N/G
*Party: K
*Species: Devil Hound
Occupation: N/A
*Appearance(Image):

Placeholder:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): N/A
*Skills: Hunting, Observing, Judgment of Character, Stealth
Abilities: Nebu is a Devil Hound. Aside from the superior, wolf-like senses, Devil-Hounds possess the capacity for extrasensory powers. While a standard Devil Hound is only truly able to utilize Telepathy with the others of their pack, Nebu's sentience and intelligence has allowed him to develop Telekinetic powers. Devil Hounds are also immune to fire and extreme heat in general, and possess the ability to become more or less completely invisible in low light environments, undetectable even to those with night vision.
Affinity: N/A
*Experience Level: Intermediate
Item(s): Nebu wears a collar, the tag of which is scarred such that the name isn't readable.
Norn: N/A

Personality
*Likes: People watching, studying human philosophers, myths and legends, dark places, getting into people's heads/playing mind games on people, teasing people who amuse him, intelligent conversation
*Dislikes: Being mistaken for a dog or cat of any variety, bright places, ignorance, being threatened, nicknames
*Fears: The thought of being mindless and feral like the rest of his kind
*Values: Intelligence and Autonomy
*Bad Habits: Boundary issues
*General Personality: A sentient Devil Hound with a laidback nature, Nebu enjoys lounging and simply observing others for a laugh. He has a weakness for conversation, which he uses to learn juicy details about others that he can use as leverage in the future. He’s actually very civil and well-mannered, but can be incredibly sharp-witted and devious, enjoying using his mental powers to play mind games with people for his own amusement. Despite this, Nebu has a soft spot for underdogs and tends to find himself helping them, despite a tendency to keep to himself. He can be very wise and insightful when necessary, usually only revealing this side to those who he dubs worthy of his time, and only if they need it.
Trademark: Quoting human philosophers, poets, and so-on.

Background
Brother(s): ???
Sister(s): ???
Mother: ???
Father: ???
Non-Immediate Family: ???
*History: Nebu reveals more or less nothing of his own past, preferring to go snooping around in those of others. Nebu resides in the Red Forest, keeping to himself, mostly. He usually stays away from passersby, and goes on about his own business. However, if one is struggling, he may help. Anyone who comes to hunt him or capture him is usually met with very vivid hallucinations...and those tend to be very entertaining to watch.

General
*Name: Cyan
Nickname(s): Cy
*Age: 18 (technically 20, but age frozen because... machine)
*Gender: Technically F
*Alignment: N
*Party: Sabrina
*Species: Android
Occupation: Lab Assistant
*Appearance(Image):
Wishful Thinking OOC Cyan10

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Cyan's entire body is essentially a weapon. Her most prominent weapons are the Ion Cannons crammed into her forearms
*Skills: Essentially whatever is installed when Sabrina updates her. Organization, Medical Practices, Advanced Mathematics and Computation... everything but basic mundane life skills.
Abilities: Cyan's entire body is a mechanical replica of her original one. Cyan is a unique model, but the units prior to her could lift over 50 tons. She can fly at speeds of up to 90mph at a maximum altitude of roughly 50 feet. She has self-repair functionality and is crammed with weapons, due to her design being a slightly modified version of the previous model, which was a defense drone Sabrina never was able to get working.
Affinity: N/A
*Experience Level: Independently, Intermediate
Item(s): N/A
Norn: N/A

Personality
*Likes: Bird watching is the most human thing she seems to participate in of her own volition
*Dislikes: ???
*Fears: ???
*Values: ???
*Bad Habits: ???
*General Personality: Cyan's behavior is essentially all programmed. Because she lacks her memories, an aspect of MIND, and in the Vangelon Universe MIND informs SPIRIT, she has no real personality initially. All that exist within her MIND is data and very rudimentary attempts at programming behavior.
Trademark: Cyan is literally always polite. Even to adversaries. She'll apologize before fighting them, after hurting them, and even try to talk them down whilst in combat, in a very civil manner.

Background
Brother(s): ???
Sister(s): ???
Mother: ???
Father: ???
Non-Immediate Family: ???
*History: Cyan's past prior to Sabrina finding her is a mystery. After Sabrina found her, Cyan's SPIRIT was placed into the new BODY. However, Sabrina wasn't able to copy Cyan's MIND. Thus, without her memories, Cyan had no personality of her own. She's been working as Sabrina's assistance for the past two years while Sabrina slaves away in her free time to figure out a means of fixing her.

General
*Name: Sally Annabel Star
Nickname(s): Lassy
*Age: 22
*Gender: F
*Alignment: N/G
*Party: K
*Species: Human
Occupation: Bounty Hunter
*Appearance(Image):
Wishful Thinking OOC Lassy10

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): The Gunsabre
*Skills: Master Marksmanship, Hand-to-Hand Combat, Swordplay, Cooking, Tracking/Hunting, Trapping, Survival, Horseback Riding
Abilities: None
Affinity: Alchemy
*Experience Level: Adept+
Item(s): Lassy typically walks around with a poncho on, as well as her hat
Norn: The Gunsabre - An incredibly powerful Weapon Class Norn TREASURE that's made up of the same nigh-indestructible super alloy that all metal Norn are. It can cut through pretty much anything and can harness the wielder's force of will into all manner of powerful ammunition.

Personality
*Likes: Food, seeing new places, a good challenge, stories, a good scrap, horses, wide open spaces, clear blue skies
*Dislikes: Cold, sitting still, arrogance, pigheaded men, boats and air vehicles
*Fears: Not being on land
*Values: Justice, hard work
*Bad Habits: Hotheaded, sometimes unintentionally abrasive
*General Personality: Lassy is a frontier girl, through and through. She’s tough, hard-working, reliable, and loud. If there’s a soul to trust with your life, look no further. She can be a bit hotheaded and a bit abrasive, but she’s well meaning and very kind. She’s a big softy at heart. She never turns away someone in need of help, regardless of whether or not she wants to. While Lassy is something of a quintessential heroine, she isn’t certain she’d reached her true potential and believes that it comes from her not knowing what it is she’s fighting for. Her initial adventure made clear that she didn’t have to try to emulate someone else in order to be strong. She could fight for herself. But she lacks a full self understanding, which she feels will eventually lead to her falling behind.
Trademark: If Lassy throws off her hat, RUN. Many of Lassy's interactions with K play similarly to running gags. Lassy has a bit of contempt towards pigheaded men. She also hates it when people stare at her...assets, and will hit anyone who does, either with her fists or with the blunt end of her Gunsabre. Often uses "It's Rodeo Time!" as a battle cry.

Background
Brother(s): N/A
Sister(s): N/A
Mother: Jan (Estranged)
Father: Martin (Deceased)
Non-Immediate Family: Unmentioned
*History: Lassy grew up in a small "Western" town, the daughter of the Sheriff. Following his death, she joined the local law enforcement branch, and even its secret Monster Defense Unit, in which she was a major player. Throughout the years, she developed her acute affinity for alchemy, making her a valuable member of that team, eventually earning the position of Co-Captain. She and the rest of the team managed to accomplish some amazing things in their time. However, when they completed what seemed to be their biggest, greatest goal, it felt as if there was nothing left for them. The team eventually disbanded, staying on a regular law enforcers for the most part. This didn't satisfy Lassy, however. So she began to travel.

General
*Name: Synn Raleigh
Nickname(s): The Kid Corsair
*Age: 16
*Gender: F
*Alignment: C/G
*Party: Sabrina
*Species: Human
Occupation: Pirate
*Appearance(Image):
Wishful Thinking OOC Synn10

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Rapiers, Whips
*Skills: Sword Combat, Whip Combat, Escape Artistry, Brawling, Athleticism, Swimming, Silver Tongue (i.e. lying and negotiating)
Abilities: None, really
Affinity: Magic
*Experience Level: Intermediate
Item(s): Pirate Hat
Norn: The Lightning Lash - A powerful Weapon Class Norn TREASURE that is essentially a hilt which harnesses the user's force of will into either a super-heated ion blade akin to a Lightsaber or a loose whip of rigid plasma. It can also be used as a lightning rod, pulling bolts of lightning from the sky and unleashing electrical discharges of immense power.

Personality
*Likes: The sea, lightning, money, being a pirate, attention, recognition, shiny things, using Lassy's... assets as pillows... or toys, depending on her mood.
*Dislikes: Being ignored, sitting still, people forgetting her name, being interrupted, attention being brought to the fact that she is a she
*Fears: Dogs
*Values: Reputation, Adventure
*Bad Habits: Extreme ADHD makes her overly hyperactive and, by extension, hasty and rash. Extremely arrogant and narcissistic. Undeniable glory hog. Quite greedy.
*General Personality: Synn is an absolutely appalling show off. She loves attention and can’t stand being ignored. She seeks fame and her name being known around the world as the greatest pirate who ever lived. Interestingly, however, she is probably the worst pirate alive. Which isn’t to say she’s incompetent. But she doesn’t mean the most recognizable pillager on the sea. She means the literal greatest. She wants people to adore her for her good deeds in taking out other pirates and the like. While she's been known to stretch the truth or sweet talk her way out of things, Synn's hyperactive imagination tends to lead her to other methods of weaseling out of tough situations. Methods that generally only a crazy person would consider. She likes to think of herself as a "Creative Thinker." And though she is a bit greedy, she cares little for material things and just likes having shiny stuff. She couldn't really care less about living a life of luxury. Beyond that, Synn has a staggering case of ADHD. She can't sit still for five seconds and doesn't ever seem to shut up once she gets going.
Trademark: Getting Synn to shut up or sit still is as simple as putting something shiny in front of her. Synn goes ballistic if she notes someone ignoring her. Synn also gets rather annoyed when people point out that she is, in fact, a she. She believes anyone can be a pirate. While the question of the girl's orientation are up for debate, she does seem particularly drawn to Lassy, often noting this affection to be entirely related to Lassy's bust. Generally she appears to view them as anything from toys to pillows, referring to them as bouncy sometimes and soft others.

Background
Brother(s): N/A
Sister(s): N/A
Mother: Daliah (MIA)
Father: Brigg
Non-Immediate Family: Unmentioned
*History: Better known as the Kid Corsair… or the living hurricane, when Synn was a toddler, her mother disappeared, leaving Brigg to raise the girl, himself. Eventually the girl took an interest in becoming a pirate, much like the tales of her mother. However, Brigg steered her away from the life of a criminal and she instead took to the cause of a seafaring vigilante, of sorts. By the time Synn was thirteen, she had her own crew. However, it didn’t last. When Synn was fifteen, the ship was attacked by a gang of evil pirates. The ship was sunk and Synn’s crew captured. She and her fathered escaped, however, taking refuge in Grandus.

General
*Name: Eli
Nickname(s): N/A
*Age: 17
*Gender: M
*Alignment: N/G
*Party: K
*Species: Human
Occupation: Treasure Hunter, Adventurer
*Appearance(Image):

Placeholder:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Polearms, Lances
*Skills: Cooking, Cleaning, Sewing, Personal Maintenance, Close-Quarters Combat (Armed or Otherwise), Digging, Rock Climbing, Settling Disputes, Organization, Money Management
Abilities: None
Affinity: Nona
*Experience Level: Intermediate
Item(s): Eli's armor is a family heirloom made up of Mythril, the strongest metal in Vangelon, bar Norn super-alloy. While it doesn't complete cover him, it's enchanted to project a field around his body to cushion assaults.
Norn: Eli's trademark weapon is the Drillance. Something of a misnomer, the weapon is actually a Norn Treasure of ambiguous design. It's either a tool designed for mining or a Weapon Class Norn Polearm. Either way, Eli activates it so infrequently that it's difficult to tell. But regardless of which it is, it's still made up of Norn Alloy, this making it nigh-indestructible and surprisingly light. It is, however, definitely a Norn ARTIFACT, rather than a TREASURE, very clearing operating on a mechanical level, rather than magic.

Personality
*Likes: Traveling, treasure hunting, the underground, joking around, his family, training, chores and mundane tasks
*Dislikes: Bandits, greed, fighting amongst friends, having his work undone, snakes
*Fears: Snakes
*Values: Hard work, personal goals, family
*Bad Habits: Often pushes himself too hard, not really knowing how to tell people "No"
*General Personality: A kind and determined kid who really is sort of the “mom” of the group, Eli is the responsible one. He manages the money, does most of the cooking, deals with the diplomatic side of less confrontational encounters, and generally does what he can to take care of everyone. Thus he tends to get easily annoyed when the work he puts into doing so is more or less rendered pointless. Though he at least is good about keeping his cool. Eli feels a constant need to prove himself and to earn his keep, given his family situation and the one strike against him of not having an affinity. So he works himself incredibly hard to be the best warrior and treasure hunter he can be.
Trademark: Being the quintessential "Only Sane Man" of the group and just kind of... putting up with the antics of the others... though they often leave him exasperated. He tends to be the guy to point out the illogic happening in front of him, though he usually just gives up after a time.

Background
Brother(s): Vince, Ivan, and Francis
Sister(s): Natalie, Alex, and Lilian
Mother: Glenda
Father: Randal
Non-Immediate Family: Clive (Uncle)
*History: Having grown up the oldest of six siblings, Eli took on the role of caretaker while his parents and uncle worked hard to keep the household upright. Unfortunately, they weren’t in the best of financial positions. Once he was sixteen, Eli left to become a treasure hunter in hopes that he would be able to make great finds and use the money to get his family out of debt. His uncle, a miner, gave him his trademark Drillance. Using it, Eli took to underground exploration, finding the occasional treasure, but nothing too glamorous. It was also discovered very early that Eli lacks an affinity. This has led him to take on the attitude that he must do everything in his power to compensate for that loss by being as skilled a treasure hunter and warrior as possible.

*Name: Axel
Nickname(s): N/A
*Age: 22
*Gender: M
*Alignment: N/G
*Party: Sabrina
*Species: Human
Occupation: Bartender, Treasure Hunter
*Appearance(Image):

Placeholder:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Daggers & Throwing Knives
*Skills: Knife Combat, Martial Arts (Specializing in the use of Kicks and Pressure Points), Cooking, Mixing Drinks, Athleticism, Infusion Magic
Abilities: Axel has some form of uncanny ability to attract women to him, completely unintentionally. It is entirely innate. Women are just drawn to him, with only a handful of exceptions. An oblivious or absentminded enough woman may escape this charm. Those who've become familiar with him over time may feel the effects of this less than those who don't know him at all. This often results in Axel having to be fished out of crowds of women or struggling to get away from them on his own.
Affinity: Magic
*Experience Level: Intermediate
Item(s): Seemingly endless supply of knives
Norn: Axel has a Norn Compass that points in the direction of whatever the holder wishes to find.

Personality
*Likes: Treasure Hunting, stories, collecting valuable objects, polishing his knives, keeping up his appearance, stargazing
*Dislikes: People who mistreat valuable objects, thieves (more so bandits and brigands), his clothes getting ruffled or messed up
*Fears: Being labeled a failure, cramped spaces
*Values: Reputation/Appearance, Personal Happiness
*Bad Habits: Comparing himself to his siblings
*General Personality: Axel is a very clean cut guy. While laidback, he tends to be rather involved when it comes to presentation. Be it with his clothes, his cooking, or his movements in battle, Axel is very particular about appearances and making sure everything has just the right "Dash of Flash." He’s been known to coordinate group meals down to the last drop of sauce. He’ll grow angry is his suit is ever actually ruffled or messed up in any way. All of this goes with his wanting to become a renowned treasure hunter like his older brother and sister, with whom he constantly compares himself. Beyond that outward appearance is a guy who tends to keep to himself, never really letting much else be known. He's chivalrous, courteous, and generally just a fine gentleman, typically. But it's clear there are things he doesn't want to burden others with.
Trademark: Constantly being mobbed by women, Suit seems to rarely ever get dirty or otherwise messed up, Does just about everything as flashily as can be, tops off successful combos and such by saying "And now for a Dash of Flash."

Background
Brother(s): Jeb
Sister(s): Raylan
Mother: Unmentioned
Father: Unmentioned
Non-Immediate Family: Unmentioned
*History: Axel keeps his past to himself. All anyone need know is that he wound up in debt to a few people and has been working as a bartender to save up and pay them off.

*Name: Brigg Raleigh
Nickname(s): N/A
*Age: 49
*Gender: M
*Alignment: C/G
*Party: Sabrina
*Species: Human
Occupation: Pirate
*Appearance(Image):

Placeholder:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Unarmed, Throwing Projectiles
*Skills: Card tricks, Inscriptive Spell Casting, Paper Charm Magic, Rune Magic, Seal Magic, survival, speech craft, marksmanship, unarmed combat
Abilities: N/A
Affinity: Magic
*Experience Level: Adept+
Item(s): Multiple Decks of Cards, Paper Charms, Spell Tags, Toothpicks
Norn: N/A

Personality
*Likes: Reading, entertaining with card tricks, playing friendly games of chance, conversation, the ocean's beauty, watching Synn grow up
*Dislikes: Synn's showboating, seeing Synn hurt, dishonorable fighting/cheating, and of course... watching Synn grow up
*Fears: Failure in raising Synn, Synn getting hurt
*Values: Honor, Fairness
*Bad Habits: Brigg can be a bit overly protective of Synn.
*General Personality: The man is quiet but walks with his head held high and his hands often behind his back as he quietly observes the world around him. He can be very sentimental at times, often not intentionally being quite, and just getting lost in memories.

When he isn’t utterly serious, Brigg gets along quite well with younger people, often making a joke of his climbing age. He will often try to participate in the conversations (usually much to the discomfort of the younger folks).

Brigg is Synn’s father. As you can imagine in a relationship between a father and his teenage daughter, a lot of “Daaad, you’re embarrassing me!” gets said. Of course it could all be part of Brigg’s plan to kill off some of his daughter’s attention hogging. Make sure she wants as little attention as possible. He often falls back on referring to her by rather childish nicknames and protecting her when probably unnecessary.
Trademark: Brigg often cuts into the conversations of the younger members of the crew, only to end up making the discussion awkward

Background
Brother(s): Unmentioned
Sister(s): Unmentioned
Mother: Unmentioned
Father: Unmentioned
Non-Immediate Family: Daliah (Wife, MIA)
*History: A father-daughter team of pirates is an interesting life choice, to be certain. But it’s also a difficult one. Brigg was first mate on the infamous pirate ship, the Demon Sails. When his ship captured the female captain of another ship, he was responsible for feeding her and making sure she got her work done around the ship. Eventually they left the ship to start a life. Enter... Synn. After Daliah disappeared and Synn began to develop her mother complex, Brigg saw where it was going and guided Synn down a noble path, rather than letting her become an outright pirate. He's acted as her first mate ever since.

*Name: J
Nickname(s): ...her name is one letter.
*Age: 23
*Gender: F
*Alignment: N/G
*Party: K
*Species: Zuman-Fox
Occupation: Various
*Appearance(Image):

Placeholder:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Sun Sceptre, Staves of any variety
*Skills: Mercantile negotiation, staff combat, unarmed combat, surroundings adaptation, medical expertise, fishing, hunting, organization, monetary management, giving advice
Abilities: Being a Zuman-Fox, J possesses an incredible degree of immediate speed and agility. She can out-pace K and out-bench Lassy (without their enhancements, not with them). She is also has vastly superior senses, particularly smell. Though her sense of hearing isn't as acute as K's.
Affinity: Zuman Affinity
*Experience Level: Intermediate
Item(s): None
Norn: The Sun Sceptre is a Norn Treasure that presumably has a connection to the Sun of Lore, itself. The full spectrum of its abilities is unknown. However, J has been known to use it to cast nigh impenetrable wards and healing spells far and away more impressive than any conventional healing magic. She can also fire beams of some form of light energy at varied intensities.

Personality
*Likes: Unknown
*Dislikes: Unknown
*Fears: Unknown
*Values: Hard work, personal ideals, hospitality
*Bad Habits: J is absentminded to a fault at times, often getting lost in her own head
*General Personality: While not purely apathetic, she is so aloof, most of the time, that it can be mistaken for being uncaring or flighty. She seems to possess a very tempered emotional impulse, doing everything with a rather blank expression and hardly any vocal inflection. However, she has revealed herself, on several occasions, to be very wise. She'll often give K or other members of the party, advice, speaking in faux-proverbs that, while odd, often suit the situation.
Trademark: Frequently popping up in various towns, each time with a different occupation. Popping up out of nowhere, speaking wisdom in her faux-proverbs.

Background
Brother(s): An unnamed older brother
Sister(s): None
Mother: Unmentioned
Father: Unmentioned
Non-Immediate Family: Unknown
History: J doesn't ever talk about herself, much less her past. She's an oddity. However, it's been suggested by some that the way she carries herself seems to reflect some form of more noble or privileged upbringing.

*Skills: Survival, armed and unarmed close combat, acting, manipulation (especially of men), athleticism.
Abilities: Mel somehow possesses inhuman physical abilities without the use of any alteration magic. All far and away superior to the basic level of almost everyone in the party.

*Bad Habits: Tends to get carried away teasing and slack off or get sloppy in a fight as a result
*General Personality: As far as can be told, Mel is nothing more than a sadistic witch, and a pyromaniac. She's calculating, manipulative, and seems to enjoy teasing her adversaries, and gloating from time to time. She often works to psych out her opponents, getting in their head so she can gain that much more of an advantage. Mel is excessively paranoid. That paranoia has saved her life, more often than not.

*History: Mel is a mystery. She appeared in K's hometown of Hasteriver one afternoon, subsequently burning the entire thing to the ground, and killing the mayor. It's been suggested in her Journal that she is after something along the way, and she can't be allowed to reach it. K also managed to get Mel's norn map, which will no doubt slow Mel down, but likely won't stop her.

Mel exhibits a strong proficiency in magic. But her trademark technique is the control of monsters. Specifically, Mel carries around a small book of spell tags. Spell tags brainwash monsters and force them to do her bidding. They are incredibly painful for the monster, however, and disappear when used, marking the monster's forehead. The only way to reverse this is to knock the monster out. However, this is also made more difficult because the tags seem to enhance the monster's abilities. These tags also work on Zuman and Noman targets.

General
*Name: Vector
Nickname(s): N/A
*Age: 25
*Gender: M
*Alignment: Lawful/Evil
*Party: N/A
*Species: Zuman-Beetle
Occupation: Clan General
*Appearance(Image):

Placeholder:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Vector CAN use pretty much every conventional weapon known to man, melee or otherwise. Of them he PREFERS dual wield swords, axes, mauls, etc. However, his go-to combat method is unarmed.

*Skills: Master Tactician and Strategist, Combat Prowess, Expert Martial Artist, Wordsmith, Leadership, Vector is either some kind of psychic or possesses such an acute combat sense that he can predict the actions of opponents well before they make them and counter them expertly.

Abilities: Vector's armor is all a biological carapace that is incredibly durable. Even his actual skin is tougher than most. Therefore, Vector is incredibly strong and resilient. Vector can also cling to vertical surfaces and upside-down, meaning that his power does not, at all, come at the sacrifice of stealth. It also doesn't sacrifice speed, as his leg muscles are, like the rest of him, highly developed, allowing him to far exceed the speed of your typical human. In short, Vector is a pillar of physical might. But not only that. He is also magically adept, making particular use of teleportation magic and Earth magic. Somehow, Vector is impervious to status-related ails and elemental damage. How he achieves this is unknown. But it goes hand in hand with his philosophy pertaining to weakness. Simply put, Vector is the nigh-immovable object, whereas Mel is a nigh-unstoppable force.
Affinity: Zuman Affinity
*Experience Level: Adept+
Item(s): None
Norn: Vector presumably carries no Norn Items.

Personality
*Likes: His job, making the weak squirm, manipulating his enemies, hunting his targets, a good fight.
*Dislikes: Weaklings, repeating himself, failure, humans
*Fears: Death
*Values: Strength
*Bad Habits: Ego
*General Personality: Vector is ruthless and blunt. He places great value in strength, admiring those who surpass their limitations to achieve the strength they need to achieve their goals. He is also very cunning, and likes to study his surroundings, opponents, and situations carefully. To him, everything is a competition of strengths. Whose strength in a particular category won out over the other? This perspective has soured him, however, to those who are weak, believing them to hold society back. Therefore, they will step aside or be eliminated. He views death as the ultimate weakness, and fails to understand why anyone would risk death for those weaker than him. That said, Vector is not a violent man, at least not inherently. Vector's approach in battle is very thought out and methodical. Usually preferring to test his enemies a bit before fully engaging them.

*History: Vector first appears in Agrabah, where he seems to take an interest in the activities of Sabrina's party. He gives a brief speech to Sabrina on strength of the Zuman People when compared to the Human Race.

Following this encounter, Vector appears throughout the adventure as an antagonist to Sabrina's party. He appears to have a number of missions to concern himself with and Sabrina's group often gets in the way of them, much to his own entertainment.

General
*Name: Kirei Katsugiya
Nickname(s): "Dark Gunner" Katsugiya
*Age: 26
*Gender: Male
*Alignment: True Neutral
*Party: Sabrina
*Species: Human
Occupation: Mercenary
*Appearance(Image);

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Has a large collection of guns that he uses, in addition to a combat knife. Also, small Harmonite explosives called Blast Globes that he triggers with a magic charge. He's renowned for using both sorcery and modern weaponry to achieve his objectives, often in combination.

Gun List: Two Glock 17G4 handguns, two MP5K "Kurtz" submachine guns, REM 870 short-barreled shotgun, Walther Sniper Rifle, Contender.

Kirei will also resort to setting traps with land mines, grenades, high-grade explosives, napalm, and pretty much anything else he can get his hands on. However, he has to have some kind of forewarning for this. He doesn't carry any of that around on the fly.

Special Weapon: The Contender. A high-powered single-shot handgun that is more like a portable howitzer than a pistol, the Contender is perhaps the most powerful firearm in the world. Kirei is the only one who can use it due to his Reinforcement magic, as the recoil would shatter the arms of anyone else who tried to fire it. Even nigh-invulnerable types of Noman would probably break their hand just trying to use this thing. The power behind every bullet is simply absurd. It only fires one bullet at a time before needing to be reloaded, however, so while it is a powerful trump card, it still has a massive drawback.

Image:

*Skills: Tactical planning, trap setting, scouting, cooking (particularly without pre-prepared ingredients).
Abilities: High level gunnery and weapon skill in general. Kirei isn't purely a gunman or fighter, but a killer in the truest sense of the word. He specializes in murder, pure and simple.
Magic: Kirei's magic falls under three catagories.

1). Trick Bullets. Kirei can modify his bullets to do things that they wouldn't normally be capable of doing. Examples include ballistic ricochets, curving their trajectory, or maintaining their flight path when shattered, sliced, or otherwise damaged.

2). Origin Magic: Origin Magic is Conceptual magic, magic based on concepts or aspects of the Origin in question, rather than a preset element or type. This makes it both highly varied and highly specialized at the same time, with the only limits being the user's imagination, and the aspects of the Origin in question. Kirei's Shadow Origin, therefore, doesn't deal with actual darkness magic, but magic based on concepts such as "hidden", "obscuring", "insidious", "lightless", or other descriptors of the word "Shadow". Origin Magic is inherited, rather than learned, so Kirei is the only living person with a Shadow Origin as of this time.

Currently, Kirei's only full spell with the Shadow Origin is Hellsmoke. Based on the concepts of "insidious", "consuming", and "omnipresent", Hellsmoke is a shadowy miasma that acts like a lethal poison to anyone not carrying a Shadow Origin, or a specific protective seal from Kirei. It's quite slow-acting (takes upwards of 30 minutes to take full effect for a standard dose under standard conditions), but high-speed movement will accelerate how quickly it works, as will the concentration. Basically, if you get hit by multiple shots, or run around a lot while affected, it'll kill you a lot quicker. Kirei can augment his bullets and knife with Hellsmoke, and he can also use it as a more mundane smokescreen from his mouth. Small doses cannot kill; it takes at least one complete lungful of the stuff via inhaling and three shots/stabs via his weapons. It will be painful, distracting, and it'll slow you down some in smaller doses, but it won't be fatal. The fatal dosage also varies wildly depending on things like body mass, metabolism, magical power, species, and a whole list of other qualifiers. It's highly unreliable. There's even a way to survive once the poison hits you by burning it out of your system with large amounts of magic power, but the cost-effect ratio is roughly three units of magic to every unit of Hellsmoke in the body, making it very, very inefficient to try and survive that way, and it only really works for magi. Basically, it's not a great poison by itself.

However, what makes this spell so dangerous is how easy it is to use, and how Kirei makes use of even glancing blows to deliver it. This spell is the reason he earned the moniker "Dark Gunner", as he continually nails people with it without them suspecting the damage, often times disguising it as a standard smokescreen or a trick bullet instead. The spell itself isn't that dangerous. Kirei is the one who makes it so deadly.

3). Reinforcement. Arguably Kirei's greatest skill, magical or otherwise, Reinforcement is classified as a form of High Thaumaturgy, one of the most difficult forms of magic. At its most easily understood level, Reinforcement is enhancing the innate qualities of something. Kirei can use it to enhance his body's speed, strength, or durability. Each form is called up by an aria, or spellcasting phrase. Enforce: Accel for speed, Enforce: Striker for strength, and Enforce: Brace for durability. He can also add Double or Triple to the aria (ex. Enforce: Double Accel) to double or triple the effect of his spell, at the cost of greatly decreasing the time it can work. He is only capable of enhancing one attribute at a time; subsequent enhancements require him to reset the spell and incant the aria again.

Standard Reinforcement is about three times his base capacity, Double Reinforcement is about nine times, and Triple Reinforcement is about twenty-seven times his base capacity. However, Speed Reinforcement follows a different standard; tripled, doubled, and then multiplied by 1.5, making the final result a nine-fold boost rather than a twenty-seven-fold one. Standard Reinforcement lasts up to five minutes, Double Reinforcement lasts up to one minute, and Triple Reinforcement only works for about ten seconds. Enforce: Brace also carries its own side effect. Although it makes Kirei incredibly durable, it amplifies the pain of impacts to a massive degree. Merely getting poked in Triple Brace makes Kirei feel like he's been stabbed.

How strong does that make him? Well... Triple Striker allows him to lift roughly four tons. Triple Brace lets him take anything short of a particle canon to the face without damage. And Triple Accel allows him to reach a top speed of 180 mph on foot. There's a reason that it only last ten seconds at a time.

Reinforcement's biggest drawback is that it can only work on things the user is innately familiar with. Since Kirei's body is what he understands best, it is the only thing he can reinforce at this time. Using Reinforcement to try and strengthen others will kill them. Horribly.

Affinity: Magic, as the above section would indicate. Kirei can use technology just fine, but he has no talent for developing or improving it.

*Experience Level: Adept/Adept+
Item(s): Carries a pressed iris flower in his breast pocket, for courage. It was a gift from his late wife.
Norn: None, though he does go treasure-hunting for Sabrina Bizra occasionally.

Personality
*Likes: Efficiency, Kishiou.
*Dislikes: Naivete. Also, being touched. Seriously, don't. He hates it to the point of lashing out at anyone who isn't Kishiou who does it.
*Fears: Becoming a murderer without principles. It is what led to his arrangement with Sabrina initially.
*Values: The greater good, smiles.
*Bad Habits: Doesn't care about collateral damage, utterly incapable of sugercoating things.
*General Personality: Cold, ruthless, and calculating. Kirei has been a killer since his childhood, and well over a decade of near-constant murder has left its mark on him. He still remembers how to smile, cry, and laugh, but he does all of them very rarely. Awkward in social situations and prone to being too blunt or straightforward. He also has no idea what to do when women flirt with him, to the point of being somewhat terrified and badly confused. He's willing to do any job, though he prefers more mundane ones such as being a bodyguard or acting as security for a package or location. However, due to his skills as a killer, he's most often hired as a hitman to deal with particularly unscrupulous targets.
Trademark: Dull black eyes that seem to stare straight through everything.

Background
Brother(s): N/A
Sister(s): Shirei (deceased)
Mother: Meirei (deceased)
Father: Noritaka (deceased)
Wife: Kurome Katsugiya, nee. Tohsaka (deceased)
Non-Immediate Family: Estranged.
*History: Kirei is someone who lives by one single ideal, and is willing to sacrifice anything for it. He is a martial pacifist to the most extreme level, holding life as sacred to the point that he is willing to kill as long as he can save more lives than he takes. He killed his father at a young age when he found out that he had been experimenting on his sister to make her into a more powerful mage at the cost of her sanity. He killed his sister (at her own request) after she flew out of control and killed their mother. He became a mercenary at 12, and quickly gained a reputation as someone willing to go to any means to deal with their objectives. He found some peace in his wife, a Norn researcher and distant colleague of Sabrina's named Kurome Tohsaka, but was forced to kill her as well when a lab accident (intentionally caused by her benefactor, Archmage Isaac Mardgeer) caused the Norn artifact she was studying to possess her body and fly entirely out of control. After a while, he began to fear that he was becoming as bad as his targets, and thus, when he was hired by Sabrina Bizra for a job, he forewent payment in return for her installing a dead man's switch in his body, and keeping the trigger under the control of her bodyguard, Cyan. He and Sabrina have a good working relationship, and he often runs courier or treasure hunting missions for her.

About a year after Kurome's death, he was hired to kill Kishiou Hakunetsu, a Zuman who had killed her adoptive father Joseph Harrington, and stolen his research notes on the magic he'd been studying. However, after chasing her down, Kirei asked her why a girl who had everything would kill the closest thing she had to a parent (his own family issues being the reason why), and received a different story. Apparently, Joseph Harrington had been contracted by Isaac Mardgeer to study the affects of the Sun Soul (a Norn Treasure dealing with Territory Creation) on a Zuman as they aged and grew, and Kishiou was simply the one he'd chosen. He'd cared nothing for her, and simply wanted results. Kishiou turned over the research notes, which gave creedence to her story. Kirei, though conflicted, decided to help her. He called in favors from his colleagues and contacts, getting the story to change so it became a misunderstanding over a suicide and had them doctor the evidence to match. That done, he went after Isaac Mardgeer and hunted him down for a solid month before cornering him and killing him, though in the end he only won because Mardgeer hadn't realized that Kirei had poisoned him right at the beginning of their battle and because the Archmage was stupid enough to admit to Kirei's face that he'd engineered his wife's death.

Afterwards, Kirei came back and traveled with Kishiou for about a year, taking small-ticket mercenary jobs to keep afloat, and just tried to help her get back into the swing of life. She settled down in Agrabah to act as a caretaker and part of his information network at the end of that year, so he left again to resume his full job, though he always made time to stop off in Agrabah every so often.

General
*Name: Aeris
Nickname(s): Aer (pronounced "Air"), the crazy lady, The Daughter of the Tempest
*Age: Unknown, she tends to lose count, but Aeris is very old. Her age is basically "always older than you. Deal with it." Don't say that to her face, though... she'll kill you. Or prank you incessantly. It depends on her mood.
*Gender: Female
*Alignment: Chaotic Good... though mostly just chaotic. She's definitely insane.
*Party: K
*Species: Sylph (a spirit of air; powerful but vicious)
Occupation: Hunter/Trapper; mainly deals in selling furs.
*Appearance(Image);

Spoiler:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): N/A, relies on her wind powers.
*Skills: Constructing traps, keeping fires going almost indefinitely, dealing with children or immature people calmly and without issues.
Abilities: Basically warps and controls air. Generally used as eeither powerful gusts to throw enemies around, compressed air blades to slice them up, or crushing pressure blasts for hilarious overkill. Capable of summoning mists that blanket an area. She can shape the air into vaguely transparent wings and fly with them, but this takes a lot out of her and isn't good for longer distances. Her power grows and shrinks with her awareness and her emotions.

Her body is made of air, as well. She doesn't bleed like a normal person, so small injuries don't even register for her. However, it's easier to damage her body than if it were made of flesh and blood, so even though she can regenerate, it's not without drawbacks. Also, injuries still drain her stamina, so it's not like she can just keep reforming indefinitely. Her speed of regeneration depends on the severity of the injury and her mental state, but it's always measured in minutes, not seconds.

However, her greatest ability is called "Phantasmal Winds". With this power, she increases the density of the air around her body, causing the distorted lensing of light through it to make herself functionally invisible. It also distorts her sound and scent, so following her with the other senses is equally impossible. This makes it almost impossible for her opponents to judge both the range and angle of her attacks, making blocking risky at best and dodging purely impractical. Keeping it moving in perfect synchronization with her body and at the necessary output is horrifically inefficient for her power reserves, but it makes her damn near invincible in close combat for as long as she can keep it going. She can only access this power at her absolute best, however. (As of Season 1, she can't really make use of this because her power fluctuates too much)

Affinity: Noman
*Experience Level: Inconsistent. When she's in top form, Aeris is generally one of the best fighters out there, with near-perfect control over her abilities and incredible fighting skill that could only come from several human lifetimes of experience. But it varies, because she's not all there anymore. So she can be anywhere from Basic to beyond Adept, almost at random. As of Season 1, she can't sustain a level of power with any degree of reliability.
Item(s): Always carries a malachite crystal, though she doesn't remember why anymore.
Norn: ?

Personality
*Likes: Pranks, tricksters, laughter in general.
*Dislikes: Mind control, senseless killing (she has no issues with killing as long as there's a reason for it, but killing without a point is abhorrent to her).
*Fears: Losing touch with the world entirely, as she's already well on her way.
*Values: Happiness, appreciating the little things in life.
*Bad Habits: Has no tact whatsoever. Extremely perverted when she chooses to be. Tends to have medium awareness/break the fourth wall on occasion.
*General Personality: Aeris is very happy-go-lucky, but she acts pretty off-kilter. She's flat-out insane at times, but she loves to smile and laugh, and likes to make others smile and laugh. Very much a gadfly; if she's not messing with someone, something is probably badly wrong. Flighty, impulsive, and often dislikes sitting still because she has too much energy.
Trademark: She knows she's in an RP... or she's just insane and hallucinating it. Nobody knows for sure. "You do!" ...shh, don't say that out loud! ;]

Background
Brother(s): N/A
Sister(s): N/A
Mother: N/A
Father: N/A
Non-Immediate Family: Unknown whether or not she has living relatives, but she has no contact with them.
*History: Aeris has very faint memories of once living as a prisoner in a tower. A lot of her memories are hazy, half-nightmarish recollections of being under the control of someone else, and being used to kill a lot of people, which created her hatred for both mind control and senseless killing. She also has the name "Alexander" stuck in her mind, and believes that the Malachite crystal she carries around belongs (or used to belong) to him. She travels all over the place, hoping to find him or his resting place so she can return the crystal to him. At the same time, she's wary of staying in one area for too long, since she has no idea who took her prisoner or why, and if they're still looking for her. However, it's also part of her nature to be flighty, so traveling isn't really a hardship for her.

Occupation: Caretaker/Mercenary Contact

*Appearance(Image);

Lots of images:

Traits
*Preferred Weapon(s): Her dagger. She's not really a fighter, but she's still a Zuman who has been given combat training by the deadliest mercenary alive, so she can hold her own if she has to step into a fight.
Image: Wishful Thinking OOC 451908-62________

*Skills: Teaching, caring for small children, cooking.

Abilities: Extremely skilled the the form of magic known as Territory Creation, aided by her Norn Artifact. A very versatile but time-consuming form of thaumaturgy, Territory Creation is useless in a one-on-one battle. However, as a support magic, it is nearly unrivaled. Territory Creation allows the user to shift the area and the rules in their favor, given enough time. The user can lay down rules such as "fire will be ineffective inside this area", and it will greatly weaken if not eliminate the damage of fire. Even stranger rules are possible, getting into all sorts of abstracts. All territories that the user can create will require at least a six-count aria. The stronger ones will require at least eight to ten counts, making it very inefficient. Her strongest territory requires thirty-two counts, meaning it will take over two minutes to cast (not to mention she doesn't like to use it, because of what it does). It is appropriately effective to the difficulty of casting it, however.

She has basic skills in other magical arts, but is decently skilled in the use of rune magic, using blood to create seals or magic circles to aid in spellcasting.

Affinity: Zuman, more focus on magic.

*Experience Level: Basic/Intermediate. As I said, while she can hold her own, she's not really a fighter.

Item(s): Seal tags

Norn: The Sun Soul. A magic artifact that fills all basic prerequisites for Territory Creation. Usually, Territory Creation would be limited by the area, the amount of ambient magic in the air, and the elements and circles needed to set it up. The Sun Soul makes it so the user can set up any territory wherever and whenever they want, provided they have enough energy left to power it. It turns Territory Creation from a static art into a mobile one, and drastically cuts down on the time it would take to set up magical defenses stemming from it. There is likely some connection between the Sun Soul and the Sun of Lore, but as of yet, no-one can tell.

Personality

*Likes: Children, selfless people, food. Lots of food.

*Dislikes: Selfishness, killing (not for moral reasons, but still)

*Fears: Being abandoned or used (mainly due to her past)

*Values: Ideals

*Bad Habits: Eating too much. Getting excited over cute things and kids being adorable.

*General Personality: Extremely happy and kind, Kishi loves children with all her heart. She loves their innocence and strives to protect and nurture it. At the same time, she greatly dislikes selfish people. Kishiou views selfishness as the bane of mortal life, and would like nothing more than to stamp it out completely. While she won't shy away from violence, she dislikes killing. Not because it's morally wrong, or because she holds life as sacred, but because she views killing people as a waste, because it takes away their opportunity to better themselves. Part of the reason she feels that way is residual guilt over killing Harrington (her adoptive father). She feels that he could've changed to become a better person, or come to see her as a daughter the way she saw him as a father, if she'd had more time. It's misplaced guilt, but that doesn't make it any less present.

Generally, Kishiou is a bit of a "silk hiding steel" personality. Or perhaps more accurately, "brightly colored cotton hiding steel". She's quite upbeat and fun-loving, and enjoys poking and prodding at others (particularly Kirei). On the other hand, she has a very strong backbone and is by and large the most level-headed member of Sabrina's party.

Trademark: N/A

Background

*History: Kishiou was abandoned by her parents at a young age, and was adopted by a mage named Joseph Harrington. He cared for her, raised her like his own daughter, and taught her the arts of magic, especially territory creation. At sixteen she overheard him conversing with an associate of his, and discovered a horrible truth: her master had been contracted to use a Zuman in an experiment to discover magical potential in a Norn Artifact, and she was simply the one he'd chosen. He'd never thought anything of her, and only cared about the results. Enraged and despairing over her lost life and the betrayal of a man she'd thought of as a father, she stabbed him in the back with her dagger and fled. Unfortunately, Harrington's associate Isaac Mardgeer caught wind of it, and hired Kirei Katsugiya to kill her. Having no combat skills and being inexperienced as a mage compared to Kirei, Kishiou had no chance of escaping. owever, after chasing her down, Kirei asked her why a girl who had everything would kill the closest thing she had to a parent (his own family issues being the reason why), and thus learned the truth. He called in favors from his colleagues and contacts, getting the story to change so it became a misunderstanding over a suicide and had them doctor the evidence to match.

*Skills: Working with/repairing machinery or technology, driving vehicles of any type, carrying a lot of weight over rough terrain.
Abilities: N/A
Affinity: Science
*Experience Level: N/A, Basic. Gwen is not a fighter. Never has been, never will be.
Item(s): Toolkit, pipe wrench, cigarettes, lighter. Also, her foldable motorbike, which she made herself.

*Likes: Skimpy clothes, smell of oil, tinkering, gossip

*Bad Habits: Gets too engrossed in taking things apart rather than putting them together. Alternately, she can get hung up on some aspect of a device and forget that she's supposed to fix a problem with it.
*General Personality: A mechanic through and through, Gwen can fix almost anything. Her passion for machines doesn't reduce her passion for conversation, and she makes time to talk with pretty much all of her customers; keeps her in the business of rumor-mongering, that way. Gwen has a nasty temper when it gets roused, but she really doesn't like violence. She refuses to fight herself, staying safe by keeping her head down and making connections with the right people. She really doesn't want to work for Kirei, but is willing to do so because it keeps her safe (very few people are willing to piss him off by attacking his informants).
Trademark: Wearing skimpy clothing, but getting highly annoyed when people make suggestive comments. "I work under blazing hot engines, furnaces, and shit all day! You try wearing anything with coverage!" and the like are common comebacks. She appreciates, though doesn't necessarily enjoy, the attention, however.

Non-Immediate Family: Has a few distant cousins, but they don't really matter.
*History: Gwen grew up in a poor family in Gigan. Despite that, Gwen showed a natural affinity for machines and technology, and was shoved through school on the backs of tradesmen's scholarship programs. While she thrived, her family did not, and her father eventually died due to illness caused by long-term chemical exposure at his job. Her older brother picked up for him, but after their mother passed away from her own illness from a combination of grief and poor living conditions, the two of them drifted apart. After graduating, Gwen took up a job as a mechanic's assistant, but eventually surpassed her mentors and took up the reigns of her own business, at 15. Gwen ran into Kishou and Kirei when Kirei was traveling with Kishiou after the fox Zum had killed her adoptive father. Though she shied away from Kirei, she struck up a friendship with Kishiou pretty quickly, thanks to both of them being outgoing girls with a knack for collecting gossip. About a year ago, she accepted an offer from Kishiou to work as a contact for Kirei's information network, though she insisted that she was for information and tech only, and would not fight. She's been working the rumor mills of Grandus for the past eleven months because of this.
