Aria Ladin

Name: A.R.I.A Ladin

Former name: Kaylynn Ladin


What A.R.I.A stands for: Advance Research Integrated Assistant


Purpose: To put it simply, she is a human calculator, dictionary, and a decent fighter, all in one compact package.


Status: Student at Beacon Academy.

Age: 18 years.

Gender: Female.

Race: Wolf Faunus/Robot Hybrid (I know this is strange, but hold on, let me do some explaining...Later in the form.)

Fanus Traits that are shown: Larger k9 teeth.


Weapon:

Čížik in einem Blumenthal: This is her technically secondary weapon, which is a Kite Shield/Cannon/Arm Blade Hybrid, This is meant to be used in combat against Human foes, but can easily be used against Grimm also.

Name Meaning: Finch in a flowered valley.

Most commonly used form:


Semblance: Electricity

Negative Thoughts: When she is thinking negative thoughts, her body channels electricity from her surroundings and uses it to power up both her aura and heal herself. The healing effect is rather fast, able to heal scrapes and minor cuts in seconds, while it takes 2-7 minutes for more serious wounds, unless there is poison/acid in the wound, which nullifies the healing effect, although for the duration it’s active, the wound does not get any worse.


Positive Thoughts: When she is thinking positive thoughts, her body channels electricity from her surroundings and uses it make herself faster and stronger. The strength effect is similar to Nora’s, although this just temporarily enhances her physical strength, without releasing a burst of energy upon the impact of her weapon on an opponent, and is not reliant on the 1 in 960,000 percent chance that you will be struck by lightning out in the middle of anywhere.


Semblance and Aura Color: Canary Yellow

Limitations:

  1. Aria must be conscious for all of this this to work. She cannot heal herself if the wound is causing her so much pain, or if she has lost too much blood, to the point where she can no longer focus.
  2. She cannot use her semblance for an hour after it’s first use, as to not drain too much of her energy. This is a limit she sets for herself, since a passed-out teammate is as good as a dead one when in a fight.
  3. She cannot use her semblance while using her special ability, since that would be using to much of her energy all at once.


Special Ability: When she brings her arms up, and points them straight in front of her, Her cybernetic arms connect together, and turn into a triple barrel minigun. Why? Because RWBY logic. (Everything is a gun, dummy.) She refers to this as her “Last Resort,” and only uses it upon dire circumstances. She never uses it in a fair fight, since her opponent would almost surely be overwhelmed. Mostly it is used for crowd control, and killing mass amounts of grimm, or massive grimm.


Personality: Although she is usually happy and kind to everyone, that is just a mask she puts up to hide her depression. Because of what she has become, she feels like there is no place in society for her. And to make this worse, she has few people she feels she can trust, and tends to try and avoid contact with others when possible. Nonetheless, she likes to call her older brother every two days, so she can hear about his adventures as a Hunter, although she knows that the experience is different for everyone.


Height: 6 feet tall.

Looks: Aria has longish brown hair, that reached just past her shoulders. She has pale skin, looking like she has not been out in the sunlight in years. Instead of paint, she has a thin layer of rubber covering her cybernetic limbs, which she always removes before going out into areas where grimm may be. She is rather skinny, mostly since there is no big reason for her to try to work out, since her limbs are mostly cybernetic, so it would do little good. She has teal colored eyes, which match with most of her outfit, except her weapon.

Outfit: ~I'm working on drawing references…~


Killable: Definitely, but I don’t want it to be immediate. I don’t want her to be the next Penny, who everyone gets attached to, and then is killed off in a stupid and meaningless way.


Points: 53 Points.


Strength: On a scale of five to fifty, She would be 46.

For an example, Penny would be fifty. Penny was able to instantly stop a truck going at presumably 30 MPH with her bare hands, while Aria would be pushed about 3 meters before finally bringing it to a complete stop.


Speed: 8 out of 10. While she is not going to be the next Usain Bolt of the RWBY universe, she is still pretty fast. She uses this advantage most when trying to defend herself, since she often fights opponents that she expects to be tougher than her.


Unarmed skill: At simple hand-to-hand combat, she can hold her own, but that is mostly due to her Enhanced prosthetic limbs. She has little actually skill with this style of fighting, but she will adapt to her opponent quickly.


Aura power: 7-9. It varies depending on her emotions, for example, when going through a serious loss, her aura is stronger at around a nine, but on a normal day, it would just be a seven.


Weapon skill: (How well oriented character is with chosen weapon)

Čížik in einem Blumenthal: This weapon was a recent gift from her brother, since she had sold hers after thinking she would never be able to become a huntress again, so she does not have a lot of experience it. When using this weapon, she is either forced to get face-to-face with her opponent, or take them out from range, the latter of which she has little experience with, although she does know how to use it. Something she quickly learned is that due to the metallic nature of the shield, if she slams into someone, they


Weapon strength: (How powerful chosen weapon is. Not how durable)

Čížik in einem Blumenthal: Well, for the two modes that can actually do damage to her opponents, they are rather effective, since the Blade, when used properly, could properly decapitate a Grimm, if not make it look like a block of swiss cheese with all the stab wounds Aria would inflict, while the cannon…...Well, it is a cannon, what did you expect? She uses it for long range combat, and it fires a large projectile.

Note: When using Glass Dust, the Cannon mode fires an actual ball of glass instead of a ball of energy, which upon hitting a target, tends to shatter, which could cause some serious injuries.


Special ability/Special Function power: 9-9.2. It usually depends on visibility, but she can usually take down her targets fast, unless they are far away.


Semblance power: 5-10. Since it only effects herself, there are little to no limitations to its strength, other than the fact that for it to work well she has to be around objects that use, make, or store electricity. Ex. Buildings and vehicles.


Simple History: Due to some sick fucks’ romantic fantasies, Her arms and legs had been cut off, and when had remained this way for almost a year, before she was found by her brother, who had made it his goal to get her back safely. After 2 months of having to be assisted with literally everything, Atlas scientists came to the rescue, providing robotic limb replacements, along with some other enhancements. It took a week, but she quickly got used to them. Not long after that, she started to attend Signal Academy again, before graduating from there, and quickly applying for Beacon academy, where she was accepted, and that's where she is now. So far, very few of the other students know that she is the way she is, and she would like to keep it that way, although she knows it won't last to much longer.
