- RESISTANCE: E
- SPEED: E
- AGILITY: E
- PERCEPTION: D
- RECOVERY: E
Astral Gear: Algor Hasta Regis

Type: Spear/Ring
Summon Cost: 20% of Max Prana for spear form
Description: An ancient spear imbued with countless ice-based spells and enhancements. It is about 2.2 meters long. Legends say that the ice within it is so cold that if the spear was tossed into an active volcano, the volcano would completely freeze before the spear would be damaged. The veracity of this legend has never been confirmed or denied, since most of the wielders haven’t been stupid enough to try something so risky. The one time it was used in such a manner, the target was the planet’s mantle rather than just a volcano (and it couldn’t freeze the entire mantle, obviously). The spear has never been seen since in its original world and is presumed to have been destroyed.

For an unknown reason, after Alatar appeared in Gaea, the Algor Hasta Regis began assuming the form of a ring when not summoned as a spear. The ring is mere decoration and costs no Prana, but it is always present. Also, for some reason, Firio’s voice is projected from the ring whenever she speaks.
Biography:
Personality:
Alatar: He is well grounded in reality. He knows what he can and can’t do, and usually acts accordingly. As a result, he only takes action when the outcome is desirable to him (unless it's because he's helping someone), so he sees no purpose in fighting battles he knows he has no chance of winning or that he believes he will win without question. Because of a promise he made to himself long ago though, he is determined to help people whenever he can even if it means attempting something he doesn’t think will work. He does his best to remain calm because, although he doesn’t remember the actual incident, he has recollections of doing terrible things the one time he let his rage loose. He does this by maintaining a polite and cheerful demeanor most of the time, except when he is annoyed. The only person whom he doesn't usually keep this facade up while talking to is Firio, with whom he has no qualms about arguing or teasing. He tends to serve as the voice of reason for Firio’s occasional bizarre whims. He has a passion for drinking with friends, but doesn’t normally because of how little alcohol it takes to get Firio drunk.

Alatar's biggest flaw is his inability to understand most people, due primarily to his overemphasis of the value of logic. Little things like annoyance or contentment can still be understood, but why anyone would take action because of rage, love, etc remains a mystery. His politeness usually vanishes when he feels the need to explain his logic, as doing so often puts him in a foul mood.

Firio: She tends to be brusque around people she doesn’t know due to her shyness. Once she has gotten used to someone, though, she will happily talk with them for hours. She is known for having random ideas and suggesting them without considering their feasibility or consequences, but these ideas have saved Alatar’s life on multiple occasions. She often teases or mocks Alatar when they are alone. She sometimes has trouble understanding human concepts, such as tact. That being said, she is a lot more understanding of typical emotions, such as love, hatred, etc, than Alatar is. She loves adventure novels and can’t hold her alcohol. She is also obsessed with food.

Gender: Female

Racial Skill: Keen Discernment
Class: Rogue
Total Character Points: 28/40
Overall Statistics:
- Health: 150
- Prana: 150
- Stamina: 150
Awakened Talent: Master Merchant
Hannah grew up as a merchant in a darker time. Business disagreements often involved robberies, mercenaries, blood feuds, and even murders before one business would turn out on top. As such, in addition to things such as balancing ledgers and monitoring supply and demand, Hannah's development of her business skills also included becoming skilled with using her target's fortes and powers to her advantage; infiltrating enemy territory; and, when necessary, eliminating her foes with brutal efficiency.
Attributes:
- STRENGTH: E
- VITALITY: E
- WILLPOWER: E
- RESISTANCE: E
- SPEED: C
- AGILITY: D
- PERCEPTION: C
- RECOVERY: E
Astral Gear: Life-Reaper and Profit-Keeper
Type: Sword, Pouch
Summon Cost: 20 + 5 Prana
Description: Life-Reaper is Hannah’s sword (approximately 1 meter long blade) and does exactly what the name implies. Also handy for slashing prices. The bear on the hilt is a memento from her family indicating that she has been acknowledged as a full-fledged merchant.

The sword in the image.

Profit-Keeper is Hannah’s pouch. It’s used for storage. The last person who asked her what she kept in there was used to test whether Hannah’s sword still lived up to its name.
Biography:
Hannah was born as one of many surprisingly similar-looking daughters to a wealthy merchant family. She was raised to value money above all else and it was her family that started her down the path of a merchant. When she was 12, she left home with a small sum of money and a sword so that she could gain her own business experience.

The only knowledge of her life between the ages of 12 and 17 come from rumors (which could have been about one of her numerous sisters) and the letters she wrote to her family, which can only be seen by family members and those willing to pay inordinate sums as well as sign non-disclosure contracts.

When she turned 18, Hannah returned home briefly for her family’s traditional ceremony to honor an apprentice becoming a full-fledged merchant. She then returned to her travels in search of greater profits.

Although there are several tales about her adventures, only one can be confirmed to be about her rather than one of her sisters, and that is her final adventure (and also the only known instance of her giving out free gear). She was engaged in a busy day of trading with two warring armies when an unknown horde appeared and began attacking. This new force crushed everything in its path, including peaceful villagers and travelers who wanted nothing to do with any wars. Among the fallen were several of Hannah’s sisters. The original two armies banded together to fight the third host, and Hannah was said to have devoted all her resources to supporting the two allied groups. Eventually, the third army was forced back and the allied armies created a peace treaty to replace the temporary truce they had had before. When the living and the dead were finally cleared off the ruined battlefield, Hannah’s body could not be found. A money pouch and a sword with a bear talisman, however, were found within the enemy commander’s headquarters along with dozens of bodies and a message written in blood: “A mysterious girl named Rinia told me that I could find huge profits in a new world as long as I ‘eradicate all traces of Chaos’, so I guess I’m going there. To whoever finds this, please send my money and sword back to my family. I’m sure one of my sisters has a daughter waiting to make her own start in the family business, and they have plenty of use left. No sense in buying new gear when the old stuff works fine. -Hannah Lorken”
Personality:
A cheerful girl who loves money above pretty much everything else except her family (of whom there are many) and friends (of whom there are few because most get annoyed by her frequent sales pitches). She will seek out money wherever she can find it in reasonable amounts, which has led her into several dangerous situations. She always seems to find her way out with more money than she started with, though.
She has been known to resort to underhand tactics if the profit margin is great enough, but she dislikes having to do so.

She is rather fond of stuffed animals, and considers them far more valuable than their actual monetary value.
Appearance:

Hannah's about 167 cm tall

Even though she is often frightened, she is aware that she must push past her fears if she is to fulfil her goals. Its just that understanding that and actually doing that can be two very different things.

In her eyes, her sister is perfection.
Appearance:

She is a little under 160 cm tall.

As an ancient and pious King of the great Empire of Sweden, Carolus was the commander of a vast army, at it’s height numbering over sixty thousand strong. He drilled this force into believing in their cause, and lead them to victory against armies many times their size. Even after death the Carolean army awaits the call of the king to lead them to another victory in battle.

Astral Gear: Carolus’s Rapier
Type: Sword
Summon Cost: 10 Prana
Description: A 18th Century Swedish Rapier. The initials of Carolus are written on the crossguard.
Biography:
Carolus Rex is an ancient king of an ancient Empire that predates current recorded history. There is quite literally nothing that remains of his great kingdom, destroyed as it was by the apocalypse and then further wiped from history by the ensuing loss of knowledge and continental shifts that followed immediately after. Thus, the only history that can be given is that which he remembers.

Carolus was a great King during an age of strife within a continent of Ancient Gaea known as “Europe”. The Northern Region of this continent was home to many great emerging nations such as Prussia, Denmark, Poland-Lithuania, and Muscovy. Chief among them, and enemy of all, was the Swedish Empire, who had made their empire amidst a series of conflicts within the hundred years of it’s formation. The four countries surrounding the Swedish Empire at the point of Carolus’s Rule has suffered huge losses of territory at the hands of the previous Swedish Kings and Queens. Carolus had been raised to be a ruler and a warrior, and now, with the death of Carolus’s father at only fifteen years old the young monarch found himself at the head of a huge Empire surrounded by enemies who all declared war. The war that ensued was known as the Great Northern War, and it was a conflict that would see the destruction of the Swedish Empire and death of her King.

For the first fifteen years of the war, Carolus had the advantage, waging a war of lightning in a way that had never before been seen in Europe. He raised an army of thirty thousand men, equipped and trained them so they were stout and hardy warriors, and lead them into battle against his enemies. He quickly defeated Denmark, Poland, before turning to invade Muscovy. The battles that raged initially went in the favor of Sweden, however, following a disastrous defeat at the hands of a now professional Muscovy army at the siege of Poltava, they were utterly ruined.

The king was forced to flee south to take refuge in the a large Empire known as the Ottoman Empire, where he was exiled for four years before he returned home, during which nearly all of the lands outside of mainland Sweden were lost. When he finally did arrive, desperate to recoup his losses, the king raised a new army of thirty thousand men, and then charged east to a neighbor country called Norway, and the town of Fredriksten, where the king laid siege to the garrison there. While inspecting the trenches on the frontlines of the battle, the great king, in the dark, was shot in the head, the bullet passing through his brain and ending his life, sending him into nothingness.

It was upon this death that the universe seemed to pity the great king, for he was chiefly a warrior, and second a King. He enjoyed the thrill of battle and lead his troops to great and glorious victory time and time again. It was the thrill of battle that he yearned for even as the fatal bullet hit it’s mark. Thus he was given an offer, the chance to become a soul, and fight once more, this time for the good of the world, and not just for his country, a chance which he accepted.
Personality:
Carolus is a chaste and just man. He enjoys the friendship of comrades and allies, and he loves the thrill of meeting a foe in battle. He could be described as reckless, choosing to lead his men daringly from the front rather then stay in the rear. He does not mind saying what is on his mind, and he does what he believe is necessary, even if others feel differently. Given his religious values, he views the unholy as “unclean devils” that ought to be exterminated, and acts hostilely towards them, if not outright aggressively.

Biography:

"This is the painting of lady Aoyama Hana, as you all know, she was the legendary figure that defended the town of Aoyama with her life in the past" The tourist instructor said, all of the newcomers following him as we took a look at all the paintings and relics from the days of yore. "For those who do not recall the legend, I shall recite to you from this old scroll from AR 459 a septasyllabic poem telling us, tourists of the future, the tale of the pale lady."

"There in the fair mountains Of Maekir lived a girl Whose beauty was legend A dame loved by all Kind and just was the lady Who blessed the common folk With prosperity and bliss Then, she won reverence But the pale lady said 'Revere not mortal flesh, Tear down these monuments Of mine, for they are sin.' Heed the folk of Aoyama And tore down the icons For she wished them gone Humble she was, their lady One night came a dame Noble vampire duchess Whose ears heard the tale Of the fair pale lady 'Thou thinkst thyself the fairest?' Inquired the vampire 'Ready thyself for the bout 'Tis I who challenges thee' The duchess ferociously With envy and proud in heart Sought to end the lady's brío And raise herself higher With resolution and wit The pale lady's candor And persevering aura Withstood the duchess' assault With exceeding tiredness The duchess spoke loudly 'Thy folk and legacy shall By my hands fall forevermore!' Then the lady engaged With the duchess in battle And struck her with a mighty Blow that shook the sky and land Felled the duchess she did Not before however Being poisoned by the witch The pale lady fell down And said onto the people 'The land that is mine now Shall be yours hereafter And I shall watch you always' Wept the moon, mountains and folk For no more the lady Fairest among the Oni Blessed all with her kindness."

After a round of applause, the instructor continued. "The pale lady is honored to this day in the humble city of Aoyama as the founder and eternal defender of the city." She must have been a great being, of honor and temperance, they wondered if she was like the Aoyama Hana described in the poem.

She is nothing like the Aoyama Hana described in the poem.

Her clothing is noticeably woven of fine material, giving a hint of her origins for those of sharp eyes. And though she will in casual situations let her feet bare, Hana would don in other occasions low geta sandals, as well as red tabi.

Description: A 1.5m sword that he got from his father. It has passed through several generations of his family.
Biography:
Son of two retired warriors, Ryan lived a peaceful live in their house in the mountains, where his parents trained him to be capable of defend himself since an early age. When he was eighteen, he left his parents' house and started to travel across the world and become a better warrior. A few weeks after leaving, he met a band of mercenaries known as Karezin's Band, they were famous across all the country for having some of the best warriors in all the land. Its leader, Norman Karezin, was an old friend of Ryan's mother due to the fact that she was in his band until she got pregnant with Ryan and decided to leave, and immediatly noticed the resemblance. After a quick test of his skills, Ryan was allowed to join Karezin's band. After spending a few years with them, he became one of the finest warriors in the band that was already famous for their great might.
One day, Karezin's Band was hired for a king who was in the middle of a war with a neighbor kingdom. Their instructions were simple, help the king's forces to invade and conquest one of the enemy's forts. Once they arrived, they were received for an army that was about twice the size of their own, but Ryan, the band and the troops of the king were already aware of the numerical disadvantage, but they fought with all their might. In the heat of the battle, Ryan got separated from the main group of his allies. Sorrounded by enemy forces, he fought with everything he had, but they were slowly overwhelming him. While this was happening there was only one thought on his head "I won't die here", this thought was the only thought ocurring in his head over and over while he was fighting the enemy soldiers. Suddenly he felt a sharp pain and everything around him went black.
Personality:
A man of few words, unless he is talking to a familiar person. Apparently somewhat serious on the outside, but his true side is kind an empathetic. He has a very strong sense of honor. Due to his fear of being rejected back on his mercenary days, he is very self-conscious about his dragonkin traits. Nevertheless, he loves fighting and meeting people to compete with, either stronger or weaker. He is quite brash and impulsive when he fights.

He weights around 80 kilograms and is 1.82 meters tall. There are streaks and shapes of red scales on some parts of his body. He has a couple of fangs on both his upper and lower teeth. Under his always present headband and some hair, he has a pair of red horns that he constantly trims, so that they aren't noticeable to others. He has a meter long, red scaled tail that he usually hides under his armor, like the rest of his dragonkin traits.

Racial Skill: Animal Instinct (Passive)

Overall Statistics:
- Health: 150
- Prana: 150
- Stamina: 150
Talent: Fire Lancer
Valencia has never been able to directly manifest her prana by casting spells. To make up for this, she wields Peleg, a lance through which she is able to channel her magic. By doing so, she is able to achieve various fire effects. She can choose to wield the lance as melee fighter, or she can channel magic into the lance and throw it as a ranged fighter, afterwards re-summoning it.
Attributes:

- Vitality: E
- Willpower: E
- Resistance: E
- Speed: C
- Agility: D
- Perception: D

Astral Gear: Peleg
Type: Lance
Summon Cost: 50 Prana
Description: See the talent section above. Besides its relation to the talent, it can also be used as a standard Astral Gear lance. The appearance is that of the lance in the appearance image below.

Biography:

Personality:
Valencia behaves in a calm and collected matter. She believes that openly displaying emotions is a weakness, and will therefore do her best to suppress them. Most of this stems from her austere and rough upbringing, but part of it comes to her naturally. Due to this behaviour, she is also seen as a serious person.

Valencia has one major weakness when it comes to maintaining this attitude. She sometimes experiences a strong desire to get closer to whomever she considers to be 'cute' enough. It is unclear where this comes from, but some say it is an inheritance from her mother. Although it is hard for her to do so, she will do her best to suppress this desire, as she considers it to be yet another weakness.

As a book, it has all sorts of stories about the various Pixies Amice met. It is written in a style that looks like a children's diary, which isn't strange considering Amice wrote it herself.

Biography:

The Girl and the Pixies
Foreword.

As by popular request, I have translated the remnants of the diary known as the diary that is behind the popular fairy tale 'The Girl and the Pixies'. Sadly enough, there were are difficulties to counter when approaching this work.

For example, most of the text in it is no longer readable, which means that quite a few parts required guesswork to be filled in. Furthermore, the entire thing is written in a halfling script that has gone out of use long ago, and the fact that it was written by a girl that was barely literate doesn't help either. It is also clear that the girl didn't write on a daily basis, as she sometimes wrote multiple entries on a single day, while she also skipped entire weeks. Due to this, it is hard to put up a consistent timeline. Another complication is the inability to use secondary sources for feedback, as the reality behind the diary and the very real existence of this girl would get tangled up with the popular fairy tale about her.

Up until this date, the following is the most coherent version I managed to put together, even though some entries are still lacking. As I dig deeper into the story, I shall try to recover and translate the remaining parts.

Entry 12

Dear diary. It's finally time for my plan! Tim said he would help me cross the river, so I can finally go look for mommy in the swamp. Daddy said he stopped searching, because she wouldn't be there anymore, but I don't believe him. I'm going to the swamp to find mommy, and then bring her back. I'm sure he'll be happy as well. We can soon be a happy family again.

Entry 13

Dear diary. It worked! Tim helped me get over the river with his daddy's boat, and now I'm in the swamp. It isn't nice here though. My feet got all dirty, and one time I almost got stuck in the mud. I'm also getting hungry, but that shouldn't be a problem, as I've bought an entire pack of cookies.

Entry 14

Dear diary, I got thirsty, but I couldn't find the river anymore, so I tried drinking some of the water in the swamp. It tasted weird, I don't like this anymore. Hopefully I'll find mother soon, then we can leave again together. It's getting dark right now, and it's really scary, so I'll just go to sleep and try again tomorrow.

Entry 15

Last night was really bad. I didn't sleep well, and it was really cold and scary. I also had to throw up. Maybe it is due to the water from yesterday, as it tasted weird. The swamp isn't nice at all, and I haven't found mommy so far. I'm not giving up though, as I'm brave.

Entry 16

It's getting dark again, and I'm a bit scared. My belly hurts a lot, and I'm cold. The swamp has this weird smell here, and it makes me get dizzy. I also can't see much, because there's a lot of mist everywhere. I wish daddy was here.

Entry 19

Dear diary, something amazing happened! When I woke up, the swamp was all gone! I am now in this really nice forest, and there is this purple little person that brought me some berries. After I ate them, my belly stopped hurting. The creature also showed me to a lake with really clean water, so now I don't have to drink dirty water again.

Entry 20

Today, I tried talking with the little person again, but she didn't reply. However, I'm pretty sure she's a she, as she looks to beautiful to be a he. Since she doesn't speak, I decided to call her Indigo. She showed me the way to a bush with berries, and they taste really nice, and they didn't make my belly hurt. It's also not cold here, so I like it here. However, I really miss daddy, and I didn't find mommy here.

Entry 23

I've been talking to Indigo a lot, but she doesn't say anything back. It doesn't matter though, as I can tell more about Indigo myself. You see, she's a really, really, really amazing magic person! She can do all these sorts of amazing things, and she studied at a place were all other tiny people gather, and where they all do magic things, so she's really smart as well!

Entry 32

Dear Diary, I forgot to count the days, but I'm sure I've been here pretty long now. Today, I fell down, and I hurt myself really, really badly. I couldn't even get up. As I was crying, Indigo suddenly flew off, and I was really afraid she left me. However, she didn't, and she came back with another little person, this one green. She then touched me, and I suddenly started to feel a lot better, and the pain was all going away! I've decided to call her Emerald.

Entry 37

Pixies. I've decided that Emerald and Indigo are Pixies. I've already told a lot about Indigo, but Emerald is pretty amazing as well! She's also really smart, and she is a make-better-person for all the other Pixies! If any Pixie doesn't fell well, they got to Emerald, and she'll make them feel all better!

Entry 44

Dear Diary, sorry I didn't write in you a lot. I've been having a lot of fun with the Pixies lately. However, there was this really scary monster that we saw today! It had these really big teeth, and it looked like it wanted to eat us! I ran really, really fast, but it almost caught me. However, another Pixie suddenly flew in front of it and distracted it, so I could get away.

Entry 49

Today, Tangerine showed up again! That's what I called the Pixie that saved me from the monster. She's one of the strongest Pixies, and she's really fast and agile as well! She's also really fun to play with, and we've been playing all sorts of games! I wish mommy and daddy could play with us a well.

Entry 61

Indigo brought me to a very special place. It was a place where there were really, really many Pixies. I couldn't even count them! It was nice place, and Emerald and Tangerine were there as well.

Entry 102

Dear Diary. The monster came back, but this time there was more than one. They killed some of the Pixies and ate them, and then they came after me... I managed to climb up in a tree, but it looks like the monsters are still there. I'm really scared. I want mommy and daddy to be here with.

Personality:
As someone whom lived most of her relatively short life in a fairy tale, she is horribly naive. In most cases, she will believe people without a doubt, and when two people state something contradicting, she'll just take the word of whomever she likes best for granted. She's also easily impressed by others, and will often react to something that impresses in the same was as you'd expect a normal child to react. She also gets attached to others quite easily, which is partially due to her naive nature.

Due to how she walked away from her town at around age eight, and due to how she never got into contact with other humans since, she hasn't mentally aged much above that age. Even though she is fifteen physically, she still has some (although not all) of the mental habits you'd expect an eight year old to have.

  Description:
Biography:
The following is the abstract of an interview held by Chief Superintend L. Campbell, whom interviewed Inspector S. Keen regarding the death of Earl P. Ellsworth. As ordered by miss Victorique, we are sending this abstract to all major news-outlets in the country. We have included all the available audio-files as validation, which we have only miss Victorique's foresight to thank for. Let it be known that we are the True Justice Movement. We strive to end the corruption in our country, and the following shall provide the world with evidence that miss Victorique has given up her life in order for justice to prevail. We will tolerate this corruption no more, and as of today, the world will learn about everything miss Victorique managed to uncover whilst working for the police, starting with this interview.
The above should speak for itself, but this is only the tip of the iceberg. Starting today, we shall begin to release all information that was given to us. The public will know of all the misdeeds, and we urge everyone to rise up against this corruption! We are the True Justice Movement, and today we rise up for what we believe in. Justice for all! We dedicate this first of our victories to miss Victorique, as we would still be living in ignorance without her. May her martyrdom become the fuel for True Justice in our society!
- Height: 85 cm, 33.5 inches
Personality:
Having faced countless cases corruption and betrayal during her life, Victorique has become a very cynic person. She doesn't easily think in terms of 'befriending' or 'relying on' others, instead thinking in terms of 'using' them whenever it comes down to requiring the help of others. She isn't hesitant to use violence either, which is ironic considering she personally hates being in pain more than anything else. If the former wasn't enough, she can be demanding, rude and even hostile towards others. It also tends to get even worse if she can't use her smoking pipe.

However, behind her asocial behaviour lies the desire to gain the very things she pushes away. She does desire friendship, companionship, trust and kindness, yet she fears the shallowness that she perceives these things to be. She fears it enough to maintain her asocial, and sometimes even outright antisocial ways.

Biography:
Personality:
Quite a few people have tried to psychoanalyse Zahrah, but most of them have failed to explain his curious behaviour. Even so, there are some general theories about how he ended up the way he is. For one, there are quite a few people that say he has a strong desire to be loved by people as a result of having grown up without being loved by anyone. The same people claim that his carefree personality stems from the fact that he never had anything or anyone to care about, nor did he have anyone whom cared about him. The combination of these two things might explain why he desires to look the way he does, and to act the way he does, as it is something that he believes has made him into whom he is through-out everything he's been through.

- Health: 150

- Stamina: 150
Talent: Wind Swordsman
Sho uses the element of Air, but not in the way a typical mage would. Instead of just casting spells, Sho uses his air magic to enhance his physical fighting, combining magical spells with physical techniques to heighten his offensive power. By enhancing his movement with wind and powering up his attacks, Sho can deal great amounts of damage, although at the cost of not having as much in defensive spells. Instead, he evades and dodges to avoid injury and counterattacks using his combination of magical and physical combat.

- WILLPOWER: E
- RESISTANCE: E
- SPEED: B
- AGILITY: B
- PERCEPTION: E
- RECOVERY: B
Astral Gear: Air Saber

Type: Sword
Summon Cost: 40 Prana
Description: An energy sword charged with the user's Prana. Taking its color based on the user's elemental affinity, it is a bright green. The high amount of Prana used to create it makes it very durable, enough to withstand sustained combat while being used to block and parry other weapons along with magical attacks. Its nature allows it to potentially deal damage both with physical force and magical energy, allowing the user to break through many types of defense.
Biography:
Personality:
Sho is a friendly guy, getting along easily with most people. He tries to do what he can to help others, but in truth is a bit of a coward and avoids risks if he can. He has an optimistic and carefree attitude overall, but is slightly underconfident in his own abilities due to not being as talented at magic as other elves.

The Savant

“You’re saying it’s my fight? Sure, I’ll make an app for that.”

Name: The Savant
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Race: Automaton
Racial Skill: Overdrive
Class: Mage
Total Character Points: 20/20
Overall Statistics:
- Health: 100
- Prana: 100
- Stamina: 100
Talent:Magetech Architect

The Savant was the hybrid that closed the gap with magetech and regular magecraft; one of his greatest masterpieces, the Artificer’s Touch – allows him to manipulate his Prana into complicated spell sequences to cast complicated spells without years of training and studies.

The Savant has a natural knack for magetech and coming up with novel out of the box solutions to the problems in his field.
Attributes:
- STRENGTH: E
- VITALITY: E
- WILLPOWER: C
- RESISTANCE: E
- SPEED: E
- AGILITY: E
- PERCEPTION: C
- RECOVERY: E
Astral Gear: Artificer’s Touch
Type: Magetech Gauntlets
Projectile Speed: Willpower
Pattern: Linear
Summon Cost: 20 (10 for projectile.)
Description: Note! Skill reliant additions have been added to description.

The Savant has very special hands; one of his original prototypes was to replace the hands he was originally assembled with. These hands represent his Astral Gear despite of being part of his body. The material composition of his hands is an unknown, just like the user interface that he uses to channel his own magic through magetech.

The Artificer’s Touch runs a custom created magical Operating System that was created by the Savant. The symbols in the Primary Spell Sequence System (P3S) are constantly shifting and don’t appear to match any paradigm or logic. It is running a high-level unbreakable obfuscation and while the Astral Gear is summoned, there is a constant flow of displayed information.

Even at it’s most simplest form, the Artificer’s Touch can easily rival any traditional wand or scepter. Where as with more advanced spell sequences being inputted as data, it goes much further than said counterparts.
Biography:
It was a late fall when a massive explosion shook the city of Crankwood. The aftermath that followed was horrific. Over half of the city had been reduced into a crater and only a few buildings were still left standing. There was not a single panel of glass left in the entire city. It was a disaster that had been completely unpredictable, an unfathomable accident with magic and failure of the perfect logic of automatons. During that morning over 80% of the population of Crankwood had been wiped out beyond the ability to repair. Still despite of all the havoc; there was one assembler unit that continued to function. Still repeating it’s endless task of creating automatons. However it’s workload was swamped with glitches and errors of all the other systems failing.

In the philosophy of information there is a saying; that when a lightning strikes a storage of memory, it could have a chance of arranging itself in such way that any book in the world, from future or past could be generated. And it would be even more unlikely for something more complicated to be created. For the automaton to be known as the Savant, this improbability was what gave it's consciousness a birth, there was a vast abyss of errors and glitches piling up in his code.

And it took almost three days until the half-finished body belonging to this automaton was salvaged during the rescue attempts. At first it was presumed that the automata had simply been unlucky victim of the incident. However after repairs the unit showed heavy signs of corruption, it’s erroneous cognition was labeled irredeemable.

Out of courtesy, his rescuers that had repaired the unit: came to the logical conclusion, terminate automaton in order to save it from suffering. What they did not know was that their hostilities woke up a routine inside the Savant. Awakening him to his raw aptitude of magic and realization to the deathly flaw that came with it. A single burst of Prana and the facility where they had taken him for repairs was crumbling to ruins. As his instinct to preserve it's own self, it came to realize it's own self, developing true consciousness like all other automatons.

He was an unique deviation of the automaton AI and what he possessed in magic should not have been in the first place. Perfect naught it not come with a deathly defect. The original engineered flaw for automaton expiration, was running rampant across his system, like DNA it was an irreversible side-effect. Every release of Prana accelerated his internal clock that could not be unwind backwards. It was proven in information theory that the level of correcting his ailment was a problem of at least one or multiple cardinalities more difficult to solve than the standard key to self-destruction that has been long induced within the automaton.

Regardless of it's condition, the automaton functioned like it wasn't affected. It attempted to function like any other member of it's society but the differences were plain to seen. Taking the proper path to learn magic was both not fast enough and too dangerous for him. He had to take all the shortcuts and novel solutions that he could find in order to progress. It was unfortunate that by the time he had learned to control his magic properly; he was left with only three years of time before expiring.

It was during those three years that he dedicated in advancing magetech solutions. It's contributions to the technology and magic were huge but because of the restrictions of his time, he often did not have time to create real world applications. Leaving some too complex or too much ahead of their time to be understood. He left a legacy and a treasure trove of information for those with the time and wits to solve.

The His final message to the world was: “Does this one have a soul? Or is it the end...“

Talent: Urban Legend – Kurome
– The manifestation of Kurome, an urban legend. A horror story of which origins have been forgotten. When she was just flesh; blood; sheer will and dedication for her cause, she created her own visage into a myth. She affiliated herself with darkness and night, for the purpose of achieving her goals. After ███ ████ became a SOUL, she still remained a beastkind despite of the dealings with dark powers. Due to the soulification process: the urban legend that she purposefully created, washed away the parts in her power that may have been only smoke and mirrors. When the bill came due, the world offered her the contract to become a SOUL, she accepted. She did not accept the contract to became a SOUL because it was an easy way out, especially after all the choices that she had made. Rather it felt like it was the appropriate punishment for the all atrocities that she had chosen to commit.

Biography:
<Final recording of an old man who wailed in intense pain.>

“Hello. We talked on the phone and you said you wanted to see me. I am the reporter who wanted to talk with you. It’s about Kurome.”

Kurome, yes. I was just a young boy when I saw her. A demon sent straight from the underworld. Let me open my shirt, this scar on my left. It would have killed anyone but me. I was born with a defect that made me sickly throughout my life, my heart has always been on my right.

She was a peculiar one. That she was. As beautiful as the vixens from the red lantern district. But her face was as cold as ice, skin and hair snow-white. She’s the reason why no gang has set their foot on Tonegawa in thirty-seven years. Her legend is very real in here.

“Wait... You talk like you knew her better?”

Knew her? I don’t think so. She had quirks that made her famous. The worst mass murderer in the history of this city; heck even the whole country. And she only targeted criminals.

“A killer? Doesn’t that make her a person then?”

That depends how you look at it. You see, back in the days. The three families were the law. They ran all the unlawful business out in the open. Not a soul was punished, imprisoned or executed without their permission. The three families kept the city running, and when things went bad or some little punk got out of the line; they tried to settle it as discretely as possible. Lest a gang war would have broken out and everything they achieved over the centuries would have crumbled in the fires of anarchy over night.

“How did Kurome fit into all of it?”

Well let me tell you. She was the divergent. To break the laws that the three families had worked over generations to perfect. She was like a ghost. However, unlike a ghost, she let people see her. If you open that drawer behind you, you should be able to find an old wanted poster issued by the city.

When she killed for the first time, they say there were three eye witness. It was an outrage, yet no one dared to do a thing about it. A police profiler was able to draw a picture of her. And those pictures were distributed to everyone. Back in those days, the families running their gangs, well they had everyone in their pockets.

“Oh.. This picture...”

Thank you, miss. These eyes are done seeing. Yes, that was the artists depiction of her. I remember those days like yesterday. People saw her walking through the streets more often than seeing her kill some poor chap in the gutters.

“You’re telling me that people saw her walking in the streets?”

Yes. That they did. Everyone was out for her blood- those that lacked the will to fight were informants. The coin for her capture was too good... Still, no one could ever catch her. They tried very hard. At one time almost half of the city burned down because they thought they had her trapped inside a residential block.

“Did they catch her?”

No. Never.

“I see. What about her name? I’ve heard that they call her the Black-Eyed Demon. However, there is also a rumor that she may have had a different eye color?”

Oh. I suppose that part of the legend may have faded over the years. Her eyes were as black as the soul of the devil. And in the dark they had this glow, like hellfire. People gave her the name “Kurome” because of her eyes.

“What happened with the criminal families?”

After enough blood had been spilled, one of them withdrew. The other two tried to avoid losing face, so they stayed in Tonegawa despite the affair. The long traditions made it difficult for them to escape. Admitting defeat would have been dishonorable.

“Did the other two families leave eventually?”

Yes, eventually. Kurome was relentless. And at some point, even the regular people begun to fear the members of the families. Barring windows, shops, districts. Even the police stopped caring. Everyone believed that a demon from hell was sent to punish the criminals of our city.

At this point, there was nothing that the families could do. They had lost all the respect they had gained from the community. No one wanted to be associated with them. When it was just the three, even death was kinder than what they did to you. However after first family abandoned Tonegawa, the invincible charade of the crime families was lost forever.

“So that is how Tonegawa became crime free?”

Yes. That pretty much sums it. It took Kurome four years to defeat the three families that had ran crime over generations. However, the families still ‘run’ some traditions in Tonegawa. Even today, once a year. There is a festival of remembrance day; where the heads of the families see to the graves of the victims of Kurome. For some peculiar reason, she has not attacked the men who come to remember the dead.

“I see. This’ll be a great story. Is there anything else? Has anyone seen Kurome ever since?”

Hmm... I suppose, she is occasionally seen. Wandering the streets. There haven’t been that many sightings. However, occasionally someone says that they saw a beautiful lady with scary eyes. I don’t know, if they actually saw her. I believe she went back to where she came from after she had made the three families to leave Tonegawa.

“What about you? How was the night when you survived your encounter with Kurome?”

My survival. As a young kid, I was a delinquent. I wasn’t the sharpest pen and it was either to kill or be killed. I was young and stupid. My friends had dragged me into one of the gang nights of a minor branch of the families.

This happened already after one of the families had vacated the city. There was a period of time when the remaining two families were attempting to morale high and belittle the noose which Kurome had tied around their necks. There was a lot of free alcohol. I was at a very stupid age, and I did not listen to the warnings of my family. I snuck up with them during that night.

“So you were just caught in the crossfire, a kid who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time?”

Yes I suppose that is true. During that night, Kurome appeared before us. She lulled a beautiful song that caught everyones attention. When they realized who had come, it was chaos. People started shooting and I hid myself underneath a table. It took a few minutes. Gunshots were replaced with shouting and screaming.

Can you believe it? She only used a blade against all those men with guns. However what caught me by surprise was that how few were actually killed by her. It was like she was playing with them. Eventually it came my turn; she found me. I tried to protect myself but she grazed my chest with her blade. And after that she was gone. No one heard a thing about her.

“Wait.. You’re telling me she only cut you? What about that gunshot wound on your chest?”

Yes. That was her ploy. She feeded us with hope. Hope that we had survived to see another day. It was a part of the story that we hadn’t learned before. Blinded by our hurbris, we all ignored a fact; she never left a survivor. There was never one soul who had managed to flee from her clutches. Only lone witnesses to connect her to the scene. I believe this was the way how she always killed.

“This..?”

After we all gathered up. I could hear a loud bang. And see blood spraying, my blood. It was loud and I gazed up at the source of the sound. It was only once; she had only pulled the trigger once. It was all it took to kill all those men. I remember that there was one black shell that fell down to the ground; melting away like black ice. By that moment, everyone had been shot. For each man the wound was fatal.

“You’re telling me that she pulled the trigger of a gun once and everyone had been shot by it?”

Yes. That is how Kurome killed her victims.

“A girl with black eyes...”

Yes. After thirty-seven years. She gave this old man enough time to tell one more tale.

“...”
Personality:
Seriously, is she even real? Who believes in creepypasta nonsense they read from online. One should not ask about Kurome. Kurome was only a nickname given to a person who cast away her own name, past and bonds. Find the person who she was before, and you find out her real personality.

The ability to nourish and bestow life to animals, people and plants alike. Guiding plants to grow from a seed, or healing a broken paw. April's abilities are a gift and a blessing to be loved by the nature and life. Just like a gift of death; life is a gift that keeps on giving. Her abilities never came from years of practice. They were the result of simply being loved by life, the healing talent was like an archaic memory from a past life.

Astral Gear: Thornevine Seeds
Type: Whip

Summon Cost: 15 Prana
Description: A palm sized seed that when given enough prana, grows vines around the hand and sprouts into a long thorny whip.
Biography:
Having all the gifts in the world does not always speak for the amount of happiness for that person. Loved by nature since birth, there was no wild animal that sought to harm April nor see a reason to fear her.

She was born as the only child into a common family in a tiny farming village where all the people knew each other. Changes came as seasons passed. The harvests became more and more bountiful. Little they knew these tiny miracles were part of April's latent powers growing. With the increasingly better harvests year after year, their little village quickly begun to attract
workers from nearby towns and villages, growing in size.

No one quite understood why, until at her early childhood April came to a crippled man. With a single touch, she healed his broken nerves and shattered bones. What came next was expected, the word spread like wildfire. People would come to her from all over. And she healed all of them.

It was an innocent gift, unknown to greed, unknown to evil. The kingdom she lived in was one of oppression and tyranny. And it did not take long until the word spread all the way to it's rotten core.

One night, men from the royal capital came. April was captured due to her abilities. She was a miracle that the church could not let wander around freely. She became the plaything of the corrupt monarchy and church. In name she was ‘free’, and in reality she was shackled to a golden cage.

In large spectacles, thousands would come to the capital to witness the miracles of ‘god’ – unbeknown for April; large amount of people came to her yet she was ever only allowed to see a dozen to heal them. She had become the founding stone of the corrupt church’s deception. An evil that would consume itself over the next few centuries.

As she came to an age, she was forced into marriage to a prince. The church itself was originally created as a tool of deception to keep the royal family in power. The living descents of a ‘god’. A lie that even the royal family believed or was made to believe in, despite of never showing any special attributes.

The story had no happy endings. April’s came to an end in a drop of poison before her 17th birthday.
Personality:
Naive and kind. She tries to cope with the tragedies of her past with a long smile. Not quite capable of understanding the full extent of evil within men, she dislikes authorities and bullies. When given the trust, she treasures friendship.

@Byakugaran

Your character seems mostly fine, there are just a few things that need to change.

For the "Life Infusion" skill, the description says she "saps away her life energy and through physical contract infuses it into another person", but it doesn't actually cost Health so it doesn't match up. You might want to change it to either saying she saps away her magic energy, or instead make the skill cost some HP.

Also the Occult Symbol AG is kind of useless since it can't be used for guarding or attack. I think it would be fine if you made it able to fire basic magic blasts like most staff/wand AGs can, otherwise it might be underpowered.

It is aware that he is worth nothing not only to those who created it, but mostly everyone that it has crossed paths with throughout its existence, but that has never worn it down. The very few people it has met and were kind enough to it, made it see that living hate and bitterness never leads you through a good path. Summarized, it is as kind as it can be, happy to make friends and help not only them, but everyone as long as he can.

Name: Evalye
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Race: Beastkind
Elemental Affinities:
Resist: //

Weak: //
Racial Skill: - Animal Instinct (Passive)
Speed & Recovery increased by 2 Ranks when Health is below 50%.
Class: Cleric/Knight
Total Character Points: 10/20
Overall Statistics:
- Health: 100
- Prana: 100
- Stamina: 100
Talent: Kindred Souls
Lye was the studious kind, loving to read and study. Helpful and always looking after others. She studied magic for all her life, while majoring for both art of restoration and magecraft. She had a frightening talent to spontaneously abolish offensive spells and make them her own due to her raw natural aptitude towards water element. If it only wasn't her desire to heal others, she could have become a powerful mage. Eva had a raw aptitude towards enhancements, abjurations and transmutations. As a mage, her physical prowess was frightening. Fearless and steadfast, there was no challenge that she didn't dare to face with fiery passion. Throwing her own body into the fray to shield others. Working together now as one SOUL known as Evalye, the twins who cast their lives away to protect the world from the Chaos. It was impossible to summon the twins as a separate entity. They lived throughout their lives together and they died hand by hand next to each other at the same time. Evalye has a very close attunement towards ethereal energy, both order and chaos. These powers are manifested according by the limitations between Lye's and Eva's abilities. Lye representing order and Eva representing chaos.
Attributes:

- SECONDARY ATTACK: E
- SECONDARY DEFENSE: E
- SPEED: E
- AGILITY: E
- PERCEPTION: E
- RECOVERY: E
Astral Gear: Astralfire
Type: Gauntlet/Boots
Summon Cost: 20
Description: While Lye had nothing that could have qualified for an Astral Gear, same wasn't true for Eva. Her abjuration and transmutation spells had become a hallmark, and the physical reinforcements that she knew still manifest as a Soul. By infusing her hands and feet with Prana, she is able to call out for these reinforcing spells, shielding and reinforcing her hands or feet to allow to her punch or kick through a wall without risking broken bones or bruises and strains. Due to the nature of the abjuration and transmutation spells using an elemental affinity towards fire rather than earth and air, it's durability is equally shared due to the volatility of the energies. If Astralfire breaks at one place, it breaks everywhere. This effect has a translucent rose glow that envelopes her hands and feet.
Biography:

Eva and Lye, identical twins with a very different outlook to life yet they always worked in perfect synch and supported each other. Filled with youth, infinite hopes for a better tomorrow and boundless talent -- it was no wonder that they found themselves fighting for that tomorrow.

Like shooting stars, they lived short but meaningful lives. World remembers them for their sacrifice in the battle against Calamity Seeds, while next to none knows about the truth of their sacrifice. For conspiracy theorist, a document for the Incident Falling Star comes up, however no one has been able to solve the truth.

~~~

'Incident Falling Star', During winter, ██ months ago.
Location: █████████
Allegedly resulted into the deaths of Eva and Lye.

To access this document in Astraea's archives, a minimum authority for security to access the incident is B rank. All access attempts are logged and violations must be reported immediately.
Personality:
An enigma. She does not show any symptoms of split-personality, and her thought processes appear to be stable. She has bipolar shifts towards her tendencies, however rather than showing ups and downs between depression and happiness, she is showing the differences in approaches. There is technically nothing wrong with her peculiar whims, both Eva and Lye were exemplar role models. Their core values have been essentially the same, the only difference were to the approaches they took. While Lye was always the more cautious one, Eva threw her self out into the open.

Lucia Roy

"Regret is one of the most painful emotions..."

Character Sheet

Name: Lucia Roy
Age: 33
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Racial Skill: Adrenaline (Passive)
Class: Mage
Total Character Points: 10/20
Overall Statistics:
- Health: 100
- Prana: 100
- Stamina: 100
Talent: Blackfyre
Blackfyre is a meshing of Lucia’s two powers that she possessed in her last life. Blackfyre was a passing gift from Persephone to Lucia when the contract to Gaea was accepted and Lucia wasn’t to join the goddess in the underworld. Blackfyre is the fusion of hellfire and pure darkness, this element can be found in Tartarus and has some very unique qualities. Blackfyre is not fire nor is it darkness, it is a complex element that requires a great degree of concentration and effort to wield. If, however, control is established, the wielder is able to produce some very rare and versatile effects.

Blackfyre takes on the appearance of a thin black and red mist that dances and moves in a similar way to fire. Its peculiar properties allow it to alter the attributes of other people. Most Ability Users who utilise this element (which there are very few of) normally use the power in a supportive style due to its ability to improve the attributes of allies and decrease the attributes of opponents.
Attributes:
- STRENGTH: E
- VITALITY: E
- WILLPOWER: D
- RESISTANCE: E
- SPEED: E
- AGILITY: E
- PERCEPTION: E
- RECOVERY: E
Astral Gear: Glock 26 (9mm)
Type: Handgun
Rate of Fire: 4 per Phase
Projectile Speed: C⭡
Pattern: Linear
Summon Cost: 5 Prana + 5 Stamina each bullet.
Description: Lucia’s first ever firearm was a Glock 26, given to her by Aegeus, a Mortal Agent of Zeus. She maintained the weapon and kept it in working order for most of her life, she was always able to count on it. It makes sense that she can count on it still, even in this other life.
Biography:

The Chthonic Chronicles

Lucia is a character involved in "The Chthonic Chronicles", a universe of lore made up by various character's biographies. Click the logo above to view The Chthonic Chronicles in its entirety.
Personality:
Lucia has to warm up to people and is very caring to those she cares about but doesn’t like to openly display this fact. Lucia is extremely modest but still aware of her capabilities and will not roll over and comply if her independence/pride is challenged. She cares deeply for Amphion and Hestia, she feels she has a duty to them both that she is unable to fulfil. Amphion, because she was absent for most of his life and never really got to be a big sister to him except for a brief time. Hestia, because she feels like she is a parental role model but not adequate due to her relationship with Amphion, the fact she is not actually her mother, and that she had to leave her behind in the underworld.

Lucia has a strategic mindset and will often only approach others when she has a direction and purpose, she doesn’t really do small talk unless she warms up to them first. Even then, Lucia’s small talk is purposeful, using it as a way to get to know someone more and progress further in the relationship. Lucia is very welcoming to the idea of making friends with people, but she requires a rapport be built first, acts of loyalty, genuineness, and kindness are all things she values immensely and will appreciate. She is a tough cookie to crack, however, and it takes quite a bit of effort to get through to her.

Lucia normally wears a serious expression but will smile occasionally, she tends to be a little more amiable to women than to men, in this aspect. She absolutely loathes people who have a high opinion of themselves, speak down to others, display narcissistic qualities, and are disrespectful. Lucia will always be respectful of others, she rarely ever insults anyone, preferring to respond to hostility with a calm demeanour where she takes control and employs an iron will.

To summarise, Lucia is a fierce and independent woman with a calculating and rational approach to problem-solving. She is respectful yet distant to outsiders, but when you gain her trust, she is a great ally and a caring friend.
Appearance: Lucia has black hair which is done up in an intricate hairstyle utilising braids and twists. It is decorated with beads and some subtle blue hair dye here and there. She keeps her eyebrows well maintained and sculpted and normally wears black mascara. She has blue eyes and paints her fingernails black (which she keeps relatively short). She has a very well-toned physique with defined muscles, a result from her life of combat and servitude to Persephone. Lucia’s favourite colour is black, she enjoys its simplicity. As such, her attire is all black. She wears thigh-high leather boots, jeans, a leather tunic with a cotton undershirt, and a cape with a hood. She puts on gloves when going outside.
- Eye Color: Light Blue, sometimes appears grey depending on lighting
- Hair Color: Black
- Skin Tone: Pale white
- Body Modifications: Lucia has a few body modifications. The first and most obvious is the Mark of Persephone on her forehead, this mark is tattooed into her skin and represents her status as a Mortal Agent to the goddess. See the “tattoo” spoiler for a reference. She also has this tattoo on both palms of her hands. She also has a tattoo that runs from just underneath her chin to her bottom lip. It is just a simple black line. (This tattoo can be seen in the normal appearance images of Lucia, unlike the Mark of Persephone). Lucia also has a few piercings through her ears.

@Wymsical:

Infection seems fine. Might be hard to use due to the vulnerability it inflicts on her though, leaving her open to be reduced below 50 hp before she can use it, so you could possibly justify a bit more of an effect on the buff. And it should have at least some kind of range limit due to its AOE like nature. Maybe 20 meter radius.

Blackfyre Sight should be a active single target skill like Keen Discernment that only can read attributes of C and below, i think 15 Prana cost should work.

Restriction should give a warning sign that it will hit the enemy from below so it is not undodgable. The effective attack range needs to be limited because it's like an enhanced AOE which hits only enemies not allies, so the projectiles should only be able to go outwards up to a 5 or 10 meter radius.

@Inaru-sama:

Evalye seems fine, she'll be approved soon.

@Byakugaran:

As far as i remember your chara was fine last I checked in her powers. But Elv PMed you about her Bio connection with his Rothschild chara and you didn't respond so it would help if you got that resolved with him.

@Wymsical:

1 phase more seems fine.

The reason is because Keen Discernment is similar but is an A rank skill, or is at least supposed to be around that range of effectiveness. It's not supposed to be too easy to copy a racial. For example Halfling enhanced prana regen at E rank is better than a normal regen skill with no cost could be at E rank.

Edit:Never mind, I forgot about the prana regen being back to normal, so yes the Halfling racial is basically equal to an E rank prana regen passive. You could say that a skillslot is needed for your skill and it'll cost more CP to match up over time so I suppose the limits i proposed for Blackfyre Sight might be too much. Maybe it can just be 5 Prana cost.

I haven't really thought about Restriction's AOE speed yet.
Edit:I calculated it a bit, but basically, you need to change it in some way so it's less powerful if you want to be able to use it reliably. If you want it to work D speed seems like a good idea but right now you're over the limit and to get it to D speed you'd need it to be at least 23 prana per target.

Right now it is like you are using the same spell three times at once, just on three different people. That makes it really expensive. The reason AOEs work is they have a chance of hitting allies and are not essentially multiple single target attacks. And if you used this as a single target attack every time(AKA refusing to target more than one) it's essentially a better spell than normal spells if it gets the option of being used on multiple enemies whenever you want without any drawback. Compare to let's say a normal damage spell which does not have a button allowing it to be used a second time for the same prana cost. That's basically a Quickness effect for free, just not usable on the same target, and only for that spell. So you should probably just nerf the spell to make it viable, as right now, if you ever use this for 2 or more targets you'll run out of prana extremely quickly. Even if it was 15 prana cost, when it'd probably be more than that for each enemy, 30 prana is already practically a third of her reserves, while 45 would be half.

Some possible nerf routes include making it single target or making it an AOE that has some kind of limits, or if it must remain multitarget, limiting it to 2 targets max.

To give you some detailed information on what my calcs have been:
7.5 Value for reducing an attribute of choice by 1 for 1 phase. This is due to you getting to choose.
Alatar suggested the cost just being the same as using the spell 3 times, for when you go after 3,
which is how i came up with the total value cost when used on 3 targets. The cost per target is 22.5 value.
The speed being D adds another 5 total cost.

So when you use it on 3 enemies at once it's quite a bit of value cost, at least 23 prana per enemy, although the speed cost wouldn't be multiplied by the number of targets to make it not overly expensive.

IMO, just going single target would be the easiest way, if there are warning signs it's probably possible to cancel out the cost of having it go underground, so all that remains besides 22.5 value for the spell effects is 5 for D speed, 27 value cost total, 15 covered by base value, then it'd be a far more usable 12 Prana cost each use.

You could try making it a normal AOE, if it was 5m radius it would be about 25 prana cost.

Or if you're going to go multi target, 3 is a bit much to pay for, but maybe you could try something like a double target skill which you always have to pay the full cost of for both attacks, but can choose to use both blackfyre attacks on either one enemy or two different ones. The drawback being that you don't shoot both at once and if someone gets hit by one they might dodge the other one, and if you shoot at two enemies you'd need a little bit of time to aim at the other one. Maybe that would need bonus cost for the flexibility compared to a skill that just always unleashes one attack, but I don't know. Might be limited enough by the natural limits of having to aim and fire twice, giving people more time to react. Although that brings up questions about just how much Blackfyre homes in on its own, I'm not so sure what you're intending there, and how much she consciously is having to control it and aim.

The powers she has are fine. The problem is that Divine doesn't mean what you think it does. Divines are not gods, they are basically just winged people. I looked at your character's bio.

Astral Gear: Revenger
Type: Sword
Summon Cost: 20 Prana
Description: A long black katana that’s about the size of a great sword.
Biography: Alastra was not her given name as she was not born a demon. She was human born and raised in a farmers family. Her father was a farmer and his father before him was a father. Her mother knitted quilts and sold them to neighbors. They lived a quiet and quaint life and this was boring Alastra, or Niah at the time. She was an adventurous girl and often found herself in trouble, hurt, or both. Her parents worried for her overly tomboyish behavior. She often played with the neighbors kids, everyone was pretty close so it was hard to say if she had a best friend. Nothing particularly exciting happened until soldiers came to the village. They were looking for soldiers. They used words like traveling and escaping, things that Niah wanted in her life. Adventure...

So when she was old enough, she left home to join those soldiers. Those soldiers were part of the Racktar Army. This army was in Asterios. The kingdom they resided in was seemingly successful and large. It was a nice place visually. Learning how to be a soldier was tough however. Her will, had to be changed and she needed to be loyal to a place she had no part of until now.

It was inevitable that she grew. Her skill level was about above average but she was nothing special. If you saw in a group of soldiers, the only thing in particular you might find special is that she was an attractive young lady in the army. In a particular expedition, her platoon went into a cave where a a powerful unholy was said to reside. They figured a group of soldiers and a strong adventurer should be able to kill it well enough. After all, this demon was not a SEED, simply a confirmed unholy. In the cave, they found more than on unholy. They weren't all that strong but there was many of them. Each unholy was slain by a soldier, even she had killed one. It was as if their strength inhibitors were off as they had unbeatable strength. They fought like idiots however which made fighting them manageable. They died and took a few soldier with them but finally they made it to the end of the cave. It was illuminated by magic crystal and on an alter was a Unholy with big protruding horns. She turned and raised her hand to say. "So my new army approaches, come let me baptize you into my unholy bosom." She then raised her hand and darkness overcame them all. Before she realized her she was felt up from under her armor and felt someone holding her. Unable to see however, she only struggled and wand waved her body around trying to shake the person off. They somehow managed to dig their hands under her armor as if it was simple cloth and touched her directly making her grit her teeth. It was embarrassing and she felt disgraced. She then heard "Mine" in a somewhat seductive yet sinister voice. She was then, overcome with a feeling that could only be described as black infuse into her body. She felt it through her veins and blood. It crawled under her skin yet felt rather pleasant like a rush of adrenaline. Then the hands went away and let her drop to her fours. She then looked up and and saw the cave once again. All the men and women with her were on the ground probably unconscious. She tried to check and see if one of them was alive by walking over to one and flipping him over but she found something she didn't expect. They turned into an unholy. Their skin was pale and dead yet they were still breathing.

A voice would be heard behind her. "Like the new look? I believe it is a great improvement." The woman seemed to have been talking to the people that was awake. The adventurer with them asked. "What have you done to us!" She would smile and say "I changed you...you are now one of my kin, an unholy. The enemy of the divine. You have no place among common beings. Stay with me and we'll expand this cave and make it our ho-" the adventurer stood up and cursed at the demoness. "I'll never forgive you, you evil skank!" The adventurer ran full force towards the demoness but she easily grabbed the sword that was swung at her. "You need to work on the speed of your swings, they are dangerously slow and predictable." The demoness taunted the adventurer and the adventurer continued attacking. The demoness commented on her swordplay and as the adventurer continued to fight, they had gotten better and better until they finally forced the demoness to retaliate with magic. The adventurer flew back and hit a wall gently. "You are now the head guard. You are strong but stubborn. I'll make sure you'll be strong enough to stop any human from trying to attack this place again." After the adventurer that was the strongest of all of soldiers there lost to the demoness. They knew that they could not beat her. Some of them would rather die than be an unholy...so they did themselves in. Other with the will to live was renamed and was assigned roles. Alastra, happened to be good enough to join the guard protecting the cave. Each guard was trained directly by the demoness and eventually they grew in power and skill. More soldiers came to siege the cave but they could not beat the new army the demoness had created. That was when the divines intervened. A single divine convinced the adventurer that they could change the human turned unholy back into humans. The adventurer remembered fondly how it was to be human and believed them. This was all done behind the demoness's back. They were to let the divines in so that they could slay the demoness unholy once and for all. The adventurer convinced the guard to do so, forcefully to some who became loyal towards the Demoness, and the plan was underway.

it all went according to plan and the unholy guards let the Divines enter the cave without hassle and brought them straight to the demoness to have her slain. She trusted her guard and they became her weakness. The divines had told them. "Well done....it seems you had some humanity let in you...now it's time to purge the rest of the unholy here." Caught off guard, the adventurer was the first to be slain alongside Alastra and every unholy in the cave. Alastra was one of the few who became loyal to the demoness. It was hard killing off other humans but she had to do it to live. It was all sad but now it was over...she didn't have to worry about it anymore...or she thought.

Alastra found herself waking up on a throne with her legs crossed as if someone put her their like a doll. She was not very happy about it either. Once she understood her purpose, she didn't have a problem with it but she did have problems. 1. she woke up a few 1000 years after she died so everything was very advanced. 2. she had to work with divines. The first problem she adjusted to but the second....she could never forgive their treachery and lies. Every divine was her enemy she thought and once she turned D-rank, it was decided that she would be transferred to a more friendly place with less divines...which so happened to be-
Personality:
Alastra is a loyal but overall average girl. She hates divines with a passion and has no problem with using them mainly for their usefulness whatever usefulness it may be. She often looks at things form an outside perspective sometimes giving her bigger insight into a battle. She loves every other race for what they are and accepts them. She tends to not talk to divines however. She likes banana's and hates the stars. She likes it dark thanks to the cave she lived in. She likes learning new things about the new age of the world and adjust accordingly rather easily. She's only the leader type if need be.
