Character Name: Jude Tobin

Squad: 6
Squad Position: Second
Primary Weapon: Vintage hunting rifle (Winchester Model 1895 lever-action)
Combat Style: When an enemy is encountered, the first thing Jude does is withdraw and look for a vantage point. He's a sniper at his core, and prefers to observe the action from a distance. He's solidly focused on defense, and watches for Shadows that might be sneaking up on or otherwise threatening his teammates. He's distant and calculating, and remains exceptionally calm and level in a fight. Jude sees his job as a protective one, taking shots to clear the way for the rest of the squad. The downside is that Jude is so focused on the safety of his teammates that he rarely watches his own back. He often assumes he's safe because he doesn't enter the fray, but a clever shadow could sneak up on him with relative ease.

Attribute: Balance

Persona Name: Ariel
Persona Appearance: Ariel is a lean, feminine figure dressed in the exaggerated garb of a musketeer and her navy blue uniform is embroidered with a motif of rampant lions. She's covered in a fine dusting of frost, as though she were just in a snow storm. Between her large, feathered hat and the tattered scarf and bandages wrapped around her face, only her eyes are visible. Her eyes are so blue they seem to glow, and even her eyelashes are frozen and icy. Her skin is pale and frostbitten, with visible blue veins. Long black curly hair spills out from under her hat. Compared to some other Personas, Ariel's not very tall, standing at a modest 7'.

Ariel's footsteps leave frost and ice in their wake, and swirls of snow kick up around her when she runs or lunges. She's armed with a rifle just like Jude, except hers looks much older. Ariel moves with grace and poise, saluting the enemy at the beginning of battle, and bowing deeply to Jude and his teammates once it's over. (References)
