BATTLE STATS

A significant part of life at Finchwood Academy revolves around honing one's Persona and preparing to do battle with the otherworldly Shadows. Fill out the form below to help the mods out and give everyone the details of your character's combat style and their other self!

    Combat Style: Outline particular combat skills here, along with their attitude in battle. Are they gung-ho? Do they try to protect their teammates at risk of themselves?

Are they quick to point out things, even if they're not a threat? Are they relaxed?

Yvette Barton

From: [personal profile] sugarnspite
Character Name: Yvette Barton

Squad: 1
Squad Position: Medium
Primary Weapon: Duel wielded daggers.
Combat Style: Yvette's best asset is her speed. She's quick on her feet, and can leap unusually long distances, roll, and dodge. Crevasses don't give her much pause, and she delights in running circles or sliding under larger, slower Shadows. Her technique is to get in and get out, running at the enemy for a quick, powerful slash and then disengaging as quickly as possible. If she can angle herself to stab a Shadow from behind, all the better. Hakamiah supports her with augmented Speed, and at her best she's untouchable. However, if she's forced to directly fight a stronger Shadow, Yvie's unlikely to match it in power.

With Scout and Glenn there to protect her and directly engage the enemy, and Ces to cover long-distance engagement, Yvie's able to work her way around the battlefield and remain maneuverable. Wielding her knives, she's graceful and precise, but a very short distance. She has to stay in the midst of things and stay on her toes. While she can work just fine without direction, her ears are always listening for Scout or Ces' orders.

Attribute: Speed

Persona Name: Hakamiah
Persona Appearance: A roiling storm cloud that hangs over Yvette at all times, Hakamiah is never at ease. Even when resting, she makes a yowling, whining sound, which blends in with the distant rumble of thunder. Sometimes, she'll flash from within, though no actual lightning is visible.

During battle, shapes can be made out in Hakamiah, and dozens of stormy cats can be seen trying to escape the cloud. Their tails are tied together in the middle, like a horrifying rat king made out of hissing and spitting cats. Hakamiah is fast, and flies behind Yvette like a set of stormy wings. When she speeds up, paws look like long feathers boosting her across the room. If Hakamiah attacks, the cats are suddenly more like dogs, howling and barking so horribly that even allies might be inclined to wince.

Yvie feels... bad for Hakamiah, who always seems to be in a little bit of pain. Even when she looks like a writing mass of cats, she feels compelled to soothe it during downtime.
