Name: Maeve Scatha
Weapon: Shniomh Scath: a black, translucent, formfitting leotard with tights and sleeves, interlaid with gold trim, woven with a unique kind Dust to allow her to use it as a weapon.
Dust Effects: Due to the unique nature of Maeve's Dust, Shniomh Scath's abilities differ from the norm.
Wings of the Bat: Shniomh Scath gains wings, allowing Maeve to fly temporarily. +2 momentum. Once per battle.
Ruin: Maeve begins an onslaught with her weapon as it changes forms to strike at the enemy's weaknesses, leaving the enemy unable to defend properly, damaging them. +50% chance for a second attack, + 10% chance for a third attack.
Nosferatu: Shniomh Scath drains the Aura of the foe Maeve strikes, healing her for half of the damage she does with this attack.
Semblance: Witch's Glyph: Completely different from Weiss' glyphs, which control gravity and movement. Maeve can either place her glyphs under an enemy, in front of herself, or on a surface. Maeve uses several glyph patterns:
- Lamhach (red): A jet of fire ensues from the glyph, cauing the enemy to start burning (1 through max Semblance skill*10) for three rounds or forgo an action to dispel on a successful hit. +1 momentum.
- Aer (green): A gust of cutting wind slices through anywhere nearby. Enemies affected must make a save or be prevented from gaining momentum for two rounds. Three round cooldown.
- Scath (black): Snares what stands on top of it or near it in place. Limited to one target. Prevents the use of all skills requiring motion, ie most weapon, dust and semblance skills, for two rounds. +1 momentum.
- Toirneach (Yellow): A bolt of lightning strikes the foe, damaging them. They lose 1 momentum.
Appearance: Maeve wears Shniomh Scath everywhere, as well as adding her own clothing- a breastplate on top of her....fairly large chest, a black cloak behind and around her, and a gold circlet on her head. She has long black hair and deep, almost black, brown eyes, and a light, curvy frame. When she can, she wears a large, black hat with four protrusions from the brim, reminding one of a witch's hat.
Background: The Ua Scathach are a clan of nomadic Huntresses who tend towards the use of Dust-infused clothing as their weapons and the practice of Dust manipulation, as well as unconfirmed rumors of what seems to be 'true' magic- hexes, curses and the like. Maeve is the only daughter of the main branch of the Ua Scathach, and thus grew up learning the ways of her clan, including the infusing of Dust into oneself and clothing. She was sent to live with close relatives of the Ua Scathach, the Ua Duibhne, to attend a Huntress school for several years, before returning to her clan for two years and then heading to Bulwark.

Flaw: Sadism: Maeve can get carried away with causing pain to her opponents without regard to actual damage inflicted, causing her to gain less momentum when using Shniomh Scath to damage opponents.
Name: Ian Slate.
Weapon: Gauntlets with claws on the tip. In the knuckles are retractable dust crystals.
Semblance: Made of iron: Ian can shrug off the effects an attack would have, for instance, he gets hit by something with considerable knock back and moves back a few inches.
Appearance: This man puts you in mind of an unstoppable machine. He has droopy eyes the color of ripe plums. His luxurious, straight, iron grey hair is worn in a style that reminds you of the rays of the sun. He's got five o'clock shadow. He is very tall and has an athletic build. His skin is tanned. He has large feet. His wardrobe is utilitarian, and is completely gray.

Name: Braith Weldenshier
Weapon: Trinity - this intricate scepter can switch between three types of dust to attack enemies.
Semblance: Soul Projection - Braith can project his semblance to summon creatures similar to the grim, depending on if he uses the light side of his semblance, or the dark side. Light creatures are like Grimm, but with white bodies and glowing blue eyes. Dark creatures seem exactly like Grimm.
He can also project inanimate things, such as projectiles of his semblance or walls. White semblance seems capable of replenishing one's aura, while black semblance does damage.

Flaw: Braith has severe motion sickness, often puking when he sees the ground move by him quickly. He takes *1.5 extra force damage.
Name: Carran O'Connor
Weapon: Hammer Blade: A large war hammer, around 4-5 feet in length made of some material resembling iron. It seems to be damn near in breakable, but does not have any special abilities, save for one, it's ability to transform into a sword. The hammering part splits into 2 halves, before jutting out slightly from their previous position and sliding down the handle of the 'hammer', revealing mor and more of the blade as they descend. They stop at around 25 cm from the end of the handle, before slotting into place and then both halves rise by 45 degrees. The sword itself is just as long as the hammer, and just as nigh-unbreakable. It has no true special abilities though.
Semblance: Super Strength
Appearance: Carran has black hair staying just above shoulder height. He is somewhat pale, although not enough for it to immediately jump out at you. He has dark grey eyes. He wears a green t-shirt, over which he wears a black overcoat. He wears dark blue jeans, and grey socks over which he wears black shoes.

Flaws
Weakness to Fire(1.5x damage from that element)
Name: Chryssa Reynolds
Weapon: Jaiko:
A short handle, with black-steel double edged blades extending from either end. Accompanying both sides, are revolvers, hidden within the hand guards, capable of shooting dust ammunition. The standard munition that is loaded into these have explosive rounds, for propulsion. Semblance: Redirection of Energy. Example: A monster rams into Chryssa, she absorbs the energy from the blast, and redirects it into an object she's in contact with. 1/2 damage when activated while attacked (she deals the full damage to the receiver).
Appearance:
Reference Picture, without the weapon. Obviously female, with dark purple eyes and a lighter shade of purple for hair color. About 5'6" tall.
Calm and collected in most situations. Has always had a good track record when it comes to academics, and has risen to the top of her peers in the use of her Semblance, and her skillfulness with the Jaiko.

*1.5x Damage from Faunus
Name: Falu Sanchan
Gender: Female
Race: Faunus, of the Fennec Fox variety.

Semblance: Vector Control. Falu can change the direction or Magnitude of incoming attacks that are within range of her aura.
Appearance: Falu is a Faunus, a fact that she keeps mostly hidden using a knit hat and a sash around her waist. Here hair is white in color and long, and her eyes are red. Her ears are short, and her tail is like that of a cat's. (
http://www.theanimegallery.com/data/thumbs/790px/0099/tAG_99284.jpg) She is quiet and does not like to talk about her Faunus heritage.

Semblance: Air Manipulation
Appearance:
Hazel has platinum blonde hair, which she wears in a loose crown braid, allowing a couple of thick strands to hang over her shoulders. To the sides of the crown of her head sprouts two tulip-shaped ears, large and not unlike a dog's, to go with a similar tail.

(Name: Lexus Tale (Tah-lay. They insist.))
Gender: No?
Weapon: Cyclone, Soul of Secrets: An enormous, pentagonal shield, made of bismuth bronze and colored a deep green. It is shaped asymmetrically like a large wing, with its feathers coming together at the bottom. It is able to turn into an equally enormous spear of the same color and also sporting similar feather motifs. The butt end of the spear, upon close inspection, reveals itself to be a gun's barrel as well. It is somehow completely silent when it fires. ((Unsure about this last bit.))
Semblance: Strike of the Owl's Glide - As long as an enemy is as of yet unaware of Lexus' presence, they are able to make an utterly silent and undetectable strike against that enemy, regardless of any abilities it may possess.
Appearance: Lexus is of a rather small build, as they like to say. In reality they're hella short. They have eyes of deep amber, with oaken brown hair cut in a curving arc around their head. Their wardrobe consists of entirely greens, ranging from olive to a similar hue to that of their shield; usually an ankle-length cloak or something of the sort. Being a Faunus, and an owl one at that, they have many tiny feathers on their hands, up to the wrists, of a color matching their hair. The skin past that (and everywhere else it is visible) is a warm bronze. They also lack ears of any kind, but seem to hear just as well as anyone else.
Stats: 110 points to be allocated
Aura: 25
Weapon Skill: 48
Dust Affinity: 12
Semblance Skill: 35
Flaw: Apathy - Lexus only gains up to one point of combat momentum at a time, even if they would otherwise gain two (or more?).
Name: Nia Lonruil
Gender: Female
Weapon: Foirne Gealai: A metallic, segmented staff with intricate letters carved into it, while appearing to be a plain, cream-colored staff with pink highlights and a stylized moon on the end. Powered by Dust crystals, this staff can open up into a cannon that blasts shots of lightning from within two prongs, essentially acting as a Dust-powered railgun.
Semblance: Moon Aspect: Nia's Semblance is the direct manipulation of Aura, both her's and the people around her. However, it is incredibly rudimentary, only manifesting as two uses:
-Crescent Mirror: Nia can sacrifice her own Aura to top up allies, bathing them in a healing light that restores their own Aura. Nia cannot kill herself with Crescent Mirror, nor can she dip under 1/4 of her maximum Aura by using it to heal allies.
-Eclipse Mirror: Nia can also take an enemy's Aura, temporarily overcharging hers for two rounds- this Aura can be expended to fuel Crescent Mirror. Nia cannot kill an enemy by draining their Aura, only knocking them out when they are fully drained.
Appearance: Nia is of slightly-above average height for girls of her age. She has light pink shoulder-length hair and eyes of similar color- an aspect about her which even she asks questions about, although it is assumed to be the side-effect of her Semblance. She most often wears light clothing, hailing from Vacuo- a light pink skirt and white top, with the only concession to the colder weather of Atlas being a brown hoodie with a pink rabbit logo on the back. She often tends to be sleepy and somewhat spaced-out, owing to late nights spent entertaining herself with games. In battle, this is pronounced by her use of her Semblance's healing abilities often tiring her out.
Background: Nia hails from another offshoot clan of the Ua Scathach, the Ua Solas. They have a more benevolent reputation than the infamous rumours of the main clan's blood magic and cursing of people- the Ua Solas tend to be associated more with being healers and protectors than warriors- and as such, she is far more approachable than her darker cousin. As such, she was sent to Bulwark to learn the healing arts, specifically. She has some trouble, though, considering her Semblance, although a rare medicinally useful one, requires her to use up her own energy to heal an ally.
Stats: 110/110
Aura: 50
Weapon Skill: 15
Dust Affinity: 15
Semblance Skill: 40
Flaw: Sleepy: Nia occasionally dozes off in combat, decreasing the likelihood for any of her attacks to hit and increasing the likelihood of her being hit that round.
Name: Jet Black
Weapon: Hydra: When in a single form this weapon is a javelin with many protrusions allowing it to unerringly strike targets at far distances through control from dust. When hit in just the right way it collapses into six chainwhips, that besides being as intimidating as any chainwhip due to the sound (which Jet uses to locate he 'heads') Can also be used to do all manner of nastiness using dust.
Semblance: Can manifest additional limbs, like the dude in Asura's wrath.
Appearance: This composed woman has large eyes the color of ivory. Her thick, wavy, Jet-colored hair is worn in a style that reminds you of a flowing cape. She is very tall and has a voluptuous build. Her skin is light-colored. She has a low forehead and thin lips. Her wardrobe is mysterious and looks very flattering in a punk kind of way, with a lot of red and black. Oh yeah, and she has bear ears and that stupid little bear tail. The tail annoys her to no end.

Name: Katarina Gurīn
Weapon: Kinda bad picture of dual long swords that have the blades fold back into pistols (like Blake's sword), as well as two small fold out circular shields that can retract into simple thick arm guards. I'm having an artist friend make full pictures and should have some by the end of the month.
For now, here:

Semblance: Sense Redistribution(?) Can make her eyesight stronger and take in more information from sight at the cost of hearing, and vice versa. When improving sight, her eyes glow a bright green color, while when her hearing is being improved her eyes seem to pale or glaze over.
Appearance: Cat Faunus with small ears poking out from her hair like Blake's, as well as a tail. She has long black hair with the ends dyed a dark green (Darkmouth Green-esque maybe?), with eyes the same color as Nora's but more like Ren's in shape. Shes about 5'10, has a b-cup chest, and has an average build though her legs are a little long. Her face is generally focused and calm looking, staying in a neutral or analytic expression most of the time. Her nose is fairly small though.

Aura: 24*100 (2400)
Weapon Skill: 35
Dust Affinity: 16
Semblance Skill: 35
Flaws: While using her semblance, not only is one sense moderately reduced, but the other can be sensitive to sudden extreme changes. A massive flash of bright light could blind for minutes, or a well timed shot near the ear could overload her sense of hearing.
Name: Lyssa Fairhaven
Weapon: Blood & Steel - Dual arm guards that each conceal a blade a little shorter than her forearm. These blades extend outwards past the wrist on the outside. (So basically right next to her little fingers.) They can also be fired from the guards at high velocities, and are attached to a chain, so can be whipped around as a longer range weapon after firing.
The left is painted red (Blood), and tends to use fire dust, while the right is silver (Steel) and uses ice dust.
Semblance: Acrobatics - Lyssa can perform superhuman feats of acrobatics, and tends to fight with a lot of flips, spins and somersaults. Some tend to call her a 'tornado of blades.'
Appearance: Lyssa has bright red hair that reaches her chin, with blonde bangs that frame her face. She usually wears a red skirt with white tights and combat boots, and a short-sleeved red blouse over a grey hoodie that usually covers her weapons. She is known to roll up her sleeves when preparing for a fight.
History: Dunno yet, I'll make it up as I go.

Flaws: Lyssa will sometimes have allergy attacks that result in a lot of sneezing and sometimes accidental discharge of her weapons. She will usually try to counteract this with a dust mask or scarf over her face in the spring, when they're at their worst, but they can be brought on at any time. She has known to also be allergic to Faunus hair at times.
Name: Orchid Sanchan
Weapon: Tiro Angelus - A weapon identical to the Tiro Longinus, except it has a greater potential unlocked. It is capable of activating a minigun mode as well as a grappling hook function.
Semblance: Aztec Rose- Orchids semblance grants her a two part ability: control of poisons, and the ability to control plants. While she generates poison, her veins become visible and turn a darkish purple color and any plants she is controlling turn a like color while beginning to wilt.
Appearance: A fox woman who is Falu's mother. (

History: Said to have gone missing, though has been training to get stronger. Has reappeared and wants to teach young hunters and huntresses. She is falu's mother, but doesn't want Falu to know, nor does she desire to let her know. She wears a Ursine Skull as a mask with a Beowulf pelt as a cloak, keeping it clasped with a beowulf claw.

Name: Anna Desmos
Weapon: Vindicator (thanks PrivateNomad for name), in it’s standard form, is a halberd about 6 feet long, made of the same metal all the gun-weapons are. The axe blades on either side are 2 feet from end to end and outwards, while the spear point at the end adds another 6 inches. When it converts, the one of the axe blades slide down the shaft until they reach the rear, at which point the shaft splits in half. A further half of the shaft becomes the handle of each of 2 submachine guns, with the axe blades acting as the ammo storage. They can both fire appropriate amounts of dust bullets. When out of ammo, this form can double as 2 hand axes.
Semblance: Transformation - Anna can change her body’s shape and composition at will. She doesn’t have the most control over this though, so she’s prone to changing appearance with mood (mostly her hair color, but occasionally other things). With a little more effort, she can transform others too.
Appearance: When not transformed, Anna is about 5 feet 9 inches tall. She has curly black hair down a little bit past her shoulders, although occasionally she puts it in a ponytail (mostly for combat). Her eyes are a bright green color. She generally wears rather gender-neutral clothes: A t-shirt, a leather jacket over it, and knee-length jeans. She generally doesn’t wear shoes indoors, or in warm places; she usually just turns the bottoms of her feet into rock instead.
History: Anna is a native of Atlas, from a relatively middle class family. She’d always wanted to be a huntress, for whatever reason. She wasn’t sure why herself, but it was what she wanted to do.
