Name: Elaina Meridian
Age: 22
Race: Fallen Angel/Human Hybrid
Class: Paladin
Appearance: A beautiful light-skinned woman with bright blue eyes and short black hair that goes just past her shoulders. She has two "bangs" that curve her ears at an angle. She purposely styles her hair like this to hide her small horns, which are the same shape as said bangs. She wears a black open-shoulder dress with white markings, along with a cross in the center that extends to the bottom. The sleeves for the dress are large and droop past her hands while the edges of the sleeves and the rest of the dress are gold. A group of sapphire-blue chains are wrapped around her waist, ending with a small cross of the same color. Underneath her dress she wears tight black shorts with a black tube top. Elaina's shoes match her dress. They are primarily black with a white cross design on the front and golden soles. Elaina has a white ribbon tied around her right wrist. The same ribbon her friend Lia used to cover her blind eyes.
The angelic woman has pale blue markings over her entire body, which most can't be seen because of her clothing. The only marking on her face is a thick line crossing the bridge of her nose. These markings, as well as her eyes, glow brightly when she's using sufficient energy. Now, one of the more unique physical features of Elaina is her pair of black feathered wings. These wings, however, are almost constantly kept restrained in a metal contraption, somewhat similar to a straightjacket. The cloth of the thing is black with white lines, making a cross on the back when the wings are fully restrained. From a distance, it looks as if Elaina is simply carrying a large backpack.
Personality: Elaina is a kind softspoken woman with a good amount of patience. She enjoys sharing her knowledge with others and has little problem with explaining to those who wish to understand. However, when she is actually annoyed she becomes very insulting and is not the least bit afraid to talk down to others. It's almost as if she changes into a different person. Elaina knows when she's starting to go too far though and is capable of controlling herself when agitated.
Elaina finds it difficult to ignore others in need and often chooses to help complete strangers. But she has been tricked and manipulated in the past because of this and has learned that it's safe to be suspicious of everyone, except those she actually knows and trusts of course. She doesn't talk about herself often and prefers to hear about others instead. This is because she is somewhat ashamed of her lack of control over her powers and finds it difficult to talk about. Elaina is very serious when she does discuss her powers and wings and does not release them casually. She will not release her wings just to fly somewhere since the risk of her losing control is great. Obviously there are exceptions to this, but only in absolute emergencies.
When in a dangerous situation Elaine prefers to try and talk things out and often saves fighting as a last resort. She doesn't like killing people and will usually try to just knock her enemies unconscious. The angelic woman understands when lethal force is necessary though and will actively try to kill enemies who are deemed dangerous enough. This includes world-threatening enemies as well as enemies who simply refuse to leave her or her loved ones alone no matter what she says.
Weapon: The Sapphire Savior - The blue chain wrapped around Elaina's waist is actually her main weapon. When she grasps the cross pendant attached at the end and fills it with her energy, one three foot blade of energy will come out from the top and bottom while one two foot blade will come out from the left and right. These blades of azure energy form a cross. The energy is attuned to Elaina's desires and, therefore, will phase harmlessly through her body as well as her allies. This energy cuts like a normal blade and also burns at the touch. Locking blades with Elaina is very unwise since the energy will burn through most swords in minutes. The energy fed into the cross to activate the blades is trapped securely within it, making absorption by anyone but Elaina nearly impossible. She can also fire off this energy in bursts or beams, but must constantly replace the spent energy with more as she does this. Failing to do so will make the cross have insufficient energy to create the blades.
Subweapon: Fallen Wings - Elaina's black wings are covered in ink-like energy which constantly oozes onto the ground, dissipating as soon as it lands. This is due to her inability to fully control her powers. However, this energy makes her wings excellent shields against projectiles, including both energy and physical ones such as bullets and shrapnel. Elaina can also cover enemies in the energy from her wings, allowing her to actually absorb their energy. The enemy must be in close proximity to her. She cannot fling this inky energy across the battlefield since it will dissipate when it's only six feet from her.
Abilities:
Hybrid Angelic Body - Elaina's body is naturally stronger than the normal human's due to her being part angel. She can crush cement and rock with effort and take larger amounts of physical punishment. It is also slightly harder for blades to cut through her so, while those with enhanced strength will have little problem cutting, those with above-average strength will have to put quite a bit of extra effort if they wish to pierce her flesh. Elaina also has a high pain tolerance and a healing factor of sorts and will heal from most minor injuries, such as small bruises and cuts, in hours. Broken bones and more serious injuries will take days. Unlike full angels, however, Elaina still requires air, sleep, and food.
Black Sirens - Elaina has the ability to create familiars with the black energy of her wings. They take on the form of small fairies made of black energy and there are three different types of them. The energy of her wings constantly regenerates, but at a slow and gradual pace. This means that she can use her familiars too much and "dry out" her wings. When this happens all Elaina can do is wait for the energy to regenerate. All fairy types dissipate after being out for a certain amount of time and only three familiars may be out at once. Familiars can be created even when her wings are restrained. The energy simply seeps out from the leather.
- Blaster Siren - This type of familiar surrounds itself in an orb of energy while hovering in the air, firing thin beams of energy at enemies. These beams are blunt and powerful enough to crack stone. These have a limited amount of energy and dissipate once it's all spent.
- Breaker Siren - This fairy has blades protruding from its arms and a large curved one from the back of its head. These attack by spinning and flying towards an enemy at a rather incredible speed, becoming small drills. They have fairly good control of themselves while moving and can turn mid-flight if they miss a target. However, their control is only fairly good. They are sometimes unable to change direction in time and crash into something else. Obviously since they are drills, they have incredible piercing strength, capable of punching through several layers of steel.
- Guardian Siren - This familiar is different in that it is actually a swarm of fairies and uses two "slots". Only one familiar can be used while this is active, or none if Elaina wants to increase the radius of this. A swarm of fairies surround an ally, with each fairy creating a small circular shield of energy, covering the ally in what looks like a honeycomb of blue energy shields. These barriers protect against mid-level attacks, being as strong as titanium. Elaina can increase the amount of fairies in the swarm in order to increase the radius of protection so it can shield multiple allies who are close to one another. The barrier can last up to two posts and has a two post cooldown.
Healing Circle - Elaina can use the energy of her Sapphire Cross Chain with the energy of her wings to form a black/white and blue circle underneath someone. This circle has a very slight glow and pulses with its combined energy every other second, healing those within it. It is capable of healing broken bones, restoring damaged organs, and the likes. It cannot reattach severed limbs nor, obviously, bring the dead back to life. Normally the circle is big enough for only one person, but it's possible to fit two if they squeeze in real tightly. The amount of energy required for this isn't small, but not exactly large either. Elaina could use this technique 3 or 4 times before running out of energy, but she must spend 1 entire post creating the circle, during which she cannot do anything. If she moves, the circle will dissipate due to it being incomplete.
Unshackled Celestial - This is when Elaina stops holding back and uses the full extent of her power. The black inky energy covering her wings melts away, revealing beautiful azure wings underneath. Her eyes and body markings glow brightly and her small horns become longer, extending past her face and completely unhidden by her hair. The angelic hybrid is significantly stronger when like this, able to crush metal with little effort and shrug off all attacks save for the most severe. Her Sapphire Savior becomes stronger as well, increasing its blades by two feet and releasing powerful waves of energy as she swings it. However, due to the absence of her black wing energy, she is unable to use Black Sirens, but gains another ability in its stead. Elaina refuses to use this much power unless she absolutely cannot afford to lose. Using this much power is extremely risky and the chances of her losing control are high. If Elaina loses control, she can seriously hurt herself as well as everyone around her.
- Celestial Wings - Elaina's wings become capable of shifting size and shape, giving her a wide array of attacks. She can extend the edges into large blades and slash from a distance of twelve feet, stab a wing into the ground and erupt energy right under someone's feet, and more. This energy is pure holy energy, completely destroying dark energy and those heavily involved with darkness as well as being extremely hot.
Money: 5000 Credits
Items: Sapphire Cross Chain, White Ribbon from Lia
Vehicle: Flying when her wings are unrestrained.
Story: Elaina is the daughter of a male fallen angel and a human female in the town of Atleos. This explains her wings, small horns, and other unnatural characteristics. Her father sensed she had incredible power at birth and began lightly training her to control them when she was five. However, two years later Atleos was decimated by a fire, which consumed the entire town and killed all of its inhabitants.
Elaina woke up in the rubble, surrounded by white feathers which quickly turned to dust and scattered into the wind. She wanted to search for her parents but was unable to because there were still flames spreading about. The young girl quickly ran away from all of this as she cried hysterically, her mind at a loss of what to do.
Elaina spent the next few months as a child wandering the streets of a town, fighting against starvation. It was here she met Max and Lia, who were both in a similar situation as her. The trio formed a bond out of necessity, quickly becoming true friends and helping one another survive. One year later the Order of Erlosung came across the children and took them in taking care of them and giving them all a comfortable life. Each child was trained in some sort of field and Elaina was taught how to use her angelic powers. The group became closer during this as both Lia and Max defended Elaina against the children who would bully her about her blackened wings and horns. However, as time went on, Max began to drift away from the two girls.
Elaina noticed Max drifting away from her and Lia. She began to think it was because he was tired of having to defend a freak like her and wanted to distance himself. At 18, this distracted her from her training and one day her irrational fears and negative feelings caused her to lose control of her powers, severely injuring several monks and priestesses while destroying the entire room. The Order forbid Elaina from using her powers until they figured out what to do about her.
The angelic half-breed became even more distressed over this and began deliberately avoiding Max and Lia, ashamed to face them after what happened. A monk named Jadoch soon approached Elaina, telling her he designed a way to help limit the power she could use, which would help her gradually learn how to control more and more of it. Desperate to control her abilities so she'd never accidentally harm anyone again, she quickly agreed to it.
A metal and leather contraption was placed over Elaina's wings and magic-filled tattoos were placed all over her body. The device around her wings was similar to a straightjacket and was called the "Celestial Dampener". It severely lessened the power Elaina could access through her wings while the blue body markings limited how much bodily energy she could use. The sealing ceremony exhausted the angelic woman greatly, forcing her to sleep for two days straight. When she awoke, Jadoch informed her of Max's possession and the horrifying event that had proceeded it; the possessed Max had slaughtered twelve monks.
Elaina rushes out, intending to find Max and ask him what was going on. However, she arrives just as Lia is killed by one of the monks trying to capture the sickly priest, witnessing the death of one of her closest friends. The angelic girl could only watch as Max escaped, not having the will to alert him to her presence. After this Elaina was given her Sapphire Cross Chain and she began training with it, as well as her power, for two and a half years.
Elaina was given a special assignment by the Order, which has conflicted her heart. She now must choose between her duty and her desires.
