My OC is named after the Swahili word for shadow, "Kurvali/Kivuli".
 
Lots of interesting characters.
 
Is this still open for new characters? I think I'll throw in a faunus girl if I'm allowed. Also, no sword as weapon. It will be big, hard, and powerful~ (I just couldn't resist, sorry)
 
yes. we're open as far as I can tell.
 
Name: Windia Milkyway

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Race: Human raised by Faunus Parents

Appearance:

2008-11-07-123474.jpg


Windia sports messy long silver hair, blue eyes and a fair complexion. She stands at around 5 feet, 7 inches and weighs about 53 kilograms. She often prefers wearing revealing clothes so that she could connect with Nature more. Much to her chagrin, this often gets her into trouble but she is still adamant in maintaining her clothing preferences. She only refrains from wearing such revealing apparel when she is at school, opting for her uniform instead.

Aura Color/Object: White Feathers

Semblance:

Redirection - The ability to alter the trajectory and direction of projectiles or anything in motion within a given area of 10 feet. It is a form of Pseudo-Psychokinesis wherein the clear difference is that those subjects that can be affected by this ability is limited to those which are already in motion, and thus, stationary objects are impervious to said ability. This ability is mainly used in combat for redirecting enemy projectiles or altering the course of her arrows. Of course, she is still a novice when it comes to using this ability and is limited to only redirecting small to medium-sized projectiles. It can also be used defensively in close range but again, its effectiveness depends on the target's size and speed.

Equipment (armor, weapons, etc):

Zephyrus - A highly advanced Crossbow-Khopesh with a unique cartridge system and reloading system enabling the weapon to fire continuously and rapidly. until the magazine runs out of arrow bolts. The arrow bolts can also be loaded one by one manually allowing them to be reused after being fired. A cartridge typically consists of 50 arrow bolts and reloading it only takes less than 3 seconds for her. She utilizes several types of ammunition:

1.) The first kind is the normal arrow bolt. It is light weight and highly durable couple that with high kickback and penetration power, capable of even punching through concrete, it is the standard ammunition for the Zephyrus.

2.) Explosive Arrow Bolts are the same as the Ordinary ones albeit their arrowheads are infused with red dust. A small red led light is attached to the tip wherein it lights up and blinks once it has made impact on the target. Initially, the red light blinks slowly but as the arrowhead nears its detonation, the led light blinks rapidly. It also emits a sound that is capable of attracting Grimm drawing them to the blast radius of the bomb. It is effective for routing enemies. It is advisable to only use this type of ammo long range.

These are further subdivided into:

a.) Incendiary Arrow Bolts - Arrow Bolts with vials of orange dust attached them. Upon impact the highly volatile dust undergoes a chain reaction igniting it consequently and releasing a huge fireball.

b.) Acid Arrow Bolts - Arrow Bolts with chemical vials attached them as well as explosives. When the explosives detonate, the blast force from the detonation would break the vial and spray the blast radius with acid.

3.) The third type of ammunition are the Grappling Bolts. These are mainly used for quick escapes whenever she is cornered. The tip transformers into a grappling hook once fired and the end of it is attached to a durable cable. By pressing the trigger once more, the cable retracts, pulling her to the direction of the place the hooked got latched into.

4.) Scatter Rounds - Disguised as a normal arrow bolt, when fired, it releases dozens of arrow bolts that literally block out the sunlight at a given area dude to the sheer number of them. Very useful for eliminating numerous enemies.

Personality:
Cheerful | Optimistic | Polite | Modest | Child-like

Bio: All her life, Windia had been raised among the Faunus. Her parents died at the Faunus Rights Revolution when they were fleeing with their newborn daughter. A childless Faunus couple, who was also fleeing from the ensuing carnage, found the lifeless couples body. They were about to give it no mind and just move on when they heard a baby's cry from underneath the couple's corpses. They moved the corpses away in order to investigate only to find a human baby covered in her parents' blood. They deduced that her parents made a final effort to protect the child by using their bodies as shields. They managed to shield the child from harm but at the cost of their own lives. The Faunus couple, compelled by the final act of compassion that the human child's parents had done in a desperate attempt to save her life decided to take the baby with them and raise her as their own.

Windia grew up among the Faunus. Ever since she was a child, she had already understood that she was different from them. Due to her being a human, some faunus despised her mere presence among them resulting into bullying. However, she did manage to make a lt of friends who would protect her in the event when other Faunus bully her. She doesn't blame the other Faunus for mistreating her, however, as she could clearly see the discrimination her kind has expressed towards the Faunus. In a way, she even sympathizes with them. So she decided that she would one day become a bridge for Faunus and Human co-existence. And the fastest way she could think of accomplishing that is by becoming a Huntress. ​

These are further subdivided into:

a.) Incendiary Arrow Bolts - Arrow Bolts with chemical vials attached them as well as explosives. When the explosives detonate, the blast force from the detonation would break the vial and the exposure to oxygen and the heat from detonation would cause a chain reaction in the chemical, igniting it consequently and releasing a huge fireball.

b.) Acid Arrow Bolts - Arrow Bolts with chemical vials attached them as well as explosives. When the explosives detonate, the blast force from the detonation would break the vial and spray the blast radius with acid.

Accelerator, if you want something explosive and/or incendiary, you can simply use fire dust. For every element in nature (fire, water, etc.) there is a dust. So if you want fire bolts, just put a vial of fire dust in the shaft of the arrow, or at its tip. The same can be said for your acid bolts

I should have added the dust she uses there, my bad.
 
@Accelerator, you only need fire dust for explosionive and incendiary rounds. Fire dust is highly volitile and can cause very large explosions even in moderate amounts. You don't need to mix it with other chemicals and such
 
Done editing it again.
 
@Accelerator Have you watched RWBY? dust tends to be refered to in colour,
also @everyone Red dust isn't called 'fire dust' its either 'red' or 'burn' (Ref 1st episode season 1 torchwick; 'Burn, Uncut')
 
Eddi, she wanted something with fire, thus I referred to it as such for simplicity's sake. Please, lets not squabble over such petty things as material names. If it gets the point across the name used doesn't really matter.
 
I'm pretty updated in RWBY (Have not watched Ep 2 of Volume 3 yet) though I am unfamiliar with what types of dust correspond with the colors since there are a lot of colors and only a handful of them were given corresponding effects.
 
While I agree that the squabble is petty, there is also some reason to it. for instnace you couldn't have a 'metal' dust. but earth is a thing (brown)
 
The corresponding elements to colors have never actually been discussed in the show, though they may have been discussed in one of the "World of Remnant" shorts
 
While that is true, The writers blogs, combined with lots of close, in-depth analysis of the show allows for viewers who are smart enough to work out what dusts are what, For instance purple dust is force/physical dust.
