----- WIP -----
Name: "Koori"
Generation: Newly called; og Moonwings member whoop whoop
Power Sphere: Soulmate of Water
Knight: E.F. Fort
Appearance:
Koori transubstantiates into a humanoid shell from her natural vipera dracosinensis body. Her grasp of transubstantiation is still tenuous due to her age and so must acommodate for limbs and features that she cannot quite transform properly. Most notable is her draconic skin which appears in blue-violet swaths mixed with human skin, her face which she splits into two; one as a mask carried as a pauldron when not used while the other sits normally on her head, her ears and her tail which becomes part of a hovering armor piece bound to her waist. Because of her level of skill in transubstantiation, Koori must also wear qi bonds at her ankles, forearms and abdomen to contain and regulate the power she expends to keep herself in a humanoid shell.
Calling: The fall of Luna Ashe and the immigration of its survivors to Iwaku left Koori bereaved of her purpose as a warden to the people. Feeling unbound from servitude by the decimation of the once great kingdom, she absconded back to the heavens just as the Moonwings touched down onto Iwaku soil. However, as insanity lingers in the wounds it inflicts and the Crimson Cadre prey upon the weakened the Cycle tasked Koori to take up the mantle again to reclaim her former role to protect the Moonwings and their new compatriots.
Powers/Skills: (I'll assign subheaders of Soul Arts, Confluence etc. once I figure out whatheactualfuck those constitute)
Water Manipulation (Soul Arts)- Before Koori had become a warden in Luna Ashe, even before she became a citizen of S'moo, she was a run-of-the-mill river guardian in a quiet tundra mountain range, emerging outside every so often for spirit festivals, family reunions or visiting her great-uncle Qing*. Assigned river guardianship as well as being draconic, she has all the basic prowess of controlling water in all its forms and uses, amplified by her supernatural character. Ice to vapor to streams shot out pressurized enough to cut into most metals, organic materials and some psionic barriers.
River Guardian skills - In addition to supernaturally bestowed yet basic water powers, Koori possess another skill set and restrictions derived from her rank as a river spirit. Her powers wane in winter, autumn and summer but wax during spring particular during the thawing and certain phases of the lunar cycle.
The destruction of Luna Ashe is still a very deep regret in Koori's heart. Regardless of the true history of its fall, Koori still feels a personal failure in how the kingdom was overthrown. To mention it even subtly causes her to cringe inwardly, to question Koori about it results in finding oneself in a person shaped hole in the earth usually 80 feet down... or tense silence. She still is trying to find a way to redeem what she feels like was a subpar performance of wardenly duties in a time of crisis. Because of it, she has become somewhat overzealous in enlisting herself into any cause that seems to have a clear opponent to aim her unexpressed rage toward.
Personality: Youth awashes her still in all its failings; brazen, wrathful, arrogant, and yet tenderhearted. Her reception of others is deeply rooted in her river guardian and Lune Ashe warden indoctrination, assessing them with suspicion and using brusque treatment to suss out their mettle.
Relationship with Knight: E.F. Fort is a fellow Moonwing and so somewhat endeared to Koori if for nothing but for common camaraderie of their former home. Sometimes she puts dirt in his coffee.
History: (Sum up your character's life until now.)

Her powers wane in winter, autumn and summer but wax during spring particular during the thawing and certain phases of the lunar cycle.
- Weapons proficiency (Confluence): Before the first gods taught humans how to forge weapons and fight, gods and spirits alike forged beautiful weaponry and choreographed elegant, theatrical fights for sport amongst themselves. Koori has a familiarity with most classic weaponry and a special fondness for glaives, particularly due to her duty as a guardian spirit.
- Vapor breath (Soul Arts): Beause of the temper she showed during her trial her birthright firebreath was stripped down to vapors. What she breathes out is not true dragonfire but the vapors of it which melts rather than burns and has more regenerative properties rather than destructive. It was the hope of her forebearers that she learn to exercise sympathy regularly moreso than rage.
- Flight (Soul Arts) Draconic heritage grants her the power of flight, specifically levitation and not "flight" in the true, non-supernatural sense. She moves through air as a snake moves through tall grass.
- Minor Foresight (Soul Arts): As a dragon and river spirit, she has access to foresight in that given a set of events and circumstances she can see further into its ramifications than humans and some psychically gifted humans.
- Transubstantiation (Soul Arts): Koori can release more of her qi and regain full control of her powers when in her natural, physical form of a dragon. Transubstantiating into a human shell mutes her powers down to about 85% of its usual effectiveness. ...It'll take a couple more millenia to operate at full capacity in a human shell.
