Gunner's Archive

Backstory

For hundreds of years, the Royal Trinity ruled over the Kingdom of Nitrenia.
The King, Sytrion, the Keeper of Darkness
The Scientist, Dieatos, the Balance of Order and Chaos
And the General, Nitrode, Guardian of the Light

Blessed with exceptionally long lives, the Trinity existed as a model of a ruling party that exhibited balance of power. Sytrion was a fair King to his people, Dieatos developed tools to enrich the lives of the people, and Nitrode organized an army to protect the people. Despite the Kingdom prospering, a time came when the Royal Trinity realized that their days of “youth” were coming to an end. Sytrion took his remaining time to start a family, Dieatos formed an order for keeping the peace using technology, and Nitrode schemed to extend his own life.

The Nitorious family was given successors by Sytrion. He and his wife, Iravia, had three children. First came Leos, then a year later came Solarion, and then three years later came Galicia. Leos was to become one of the King's Advisors, studying constantly. Solarion was to become a top officer in Nitrode's army, training every day. Galicia was to learn from her mother, a gifted mage, to become a Spellweaver.

Dieatos's technological endavors took him beyond their world, and he discovered that the Ring of Light, their world's brightest constallation, was actually a ring of portals orbiting a dark world. On this world, Dieatos built the headquarters of an interdimensional police force he would call Ultranis. He would spend the rest of his days overseeing
this organization.

Nitrode, going mad at the thought of growing older, used his magic to forge the OmniCrystal, and embedded it in his forehead. He concealed it with his hood, and at first was content that he had conquered his impending mortalility, but over time, he began to see himself as the superior member of the Trinity as a result. After spending years in self-imposed isolation and experimenting on his own body, he emerged with strange eyes and was wearing a golden mask with crown-like spires.

Nitrode then manipulated Sytrion into using his powers of Darkness to cover the world in an eternal night, and declared “There will be no other light in this world but me.” Upon this declaration, Nitrode killed his brother in a flash of light. He then proceeded to kill Iravia as well, but not before she was able to send her youngest child, Galicia, into a portal away from their dimension.

Realizing that the three children of Sytrion would likely be the next Royal Trinity, Nitrode subjucated Leos and Solarion as his top soldiers and ordered his army to attack the Ultranis Headquarters. Sensing the approaching danger, Dieatos pulled three young men from another dimension and transferred his own powers to them, one of them would be destined to inherit his blessing of the Angels of Chaos and Order.

From here began the War that would lead to six young people to their individual destinies as the Nitrenian Empire rose to conquer everything their ruler saw, starting with what awaited behind the portals. Nitrode then set off for Ultranis Headquarters, where he killed Diatos just moments after the power transfer. Not noticing that his brother had passed on his powers, Nitrode quickly ordered his army to proceed through the portals, taking Ultranis ships.

The Dimensional Code for the place Nitrode's army emerged in was designated 3606-SOAH, a dimension brimming with elemental energy. Nitrode's army quickly occupied most of their Earth's nations, but apparently the highest concentration of beings weilding powers was found in an independent City State located on an island in the middle of one of the oceans. This place was known as Station City, and when Nitrode attempted to occupy it, the inhabitants fought back strongly enough for Nitrode to have to back off.

During this time, the reorganized Ultranis under the lead of Dieatos's successors arrived in Station City, prompting Nitrode to send the bulk of his forces to meet Ultranis. Their new leader, a young man calling himself Shadow Gunner, challenged Nitrode to combat while their forces battled. Nitrode accepted, and appeared to soundly defeat Gunner. However, he did succeed in keeping Nitrode occupied long enough for his forces to be defeated by Ultranis and the inhabitants of Station City.

Disagreeing with the odds, Nitrode withdrew, swearing vengance on Ultranis and Station City.

Angelic Blessings

There exists an order of Angels who's presence is felt throughout the Multiverse, and they are not Angels in the traditional sense. The Angels of this order do not have physical forms, but instead represent a force or element of some kind which they can grant abilities to manipulate what they represent to a sentient being. There are many Angels in this order and they are neither good nor evil, their relationship with the person they have Blessed depends entirely on the vessel they have granted powers to. The abilities granted are random in effect but always related to their theme. The list below shows known angels and common powers that they might grant, but not necessarily will.

Known Angels and Common Abilities Table:

Force	Gender	Common Abilities Granted
Chaos	Male	Destructive energy manipulation, unpredictable mind
Darkness	Female	Darkness generation, invisibility
Death	Male	Super strength, power to kill via soul removal
Earth	Male	Ground manipulation, accelrate growth
Electricity	Male	Electricity generation, immunity to electrocution
Fire	Female	Fire manipulation, fire generation, immunity to fire
Hate	Male	Mindless fighting, pain tolerance
Life	Female	Regeneration, healing, slowed aging process
Love	Female	Mind mainpulation, mind reading
Order	Female	Defensive energy manipulation, quick strategy formulation
Space	Male	Space travel, Interdimensional travel, item summoning
Time	Male	Time travel, halted aging process
Water	Female	Water manipulation, water-breathing, remove hydration from target
Will	Male	Immunity to psychic abilities
Wind	Female	Wind manipulation, Speed enhancement, weight reduction

While Blessings are uncommon, recieving multiple blessings is even more uncommon. It is very rare to see someone with two Blessings who isn't an agent of the Angel's order, and rarer still is someone with three. A person with three Angelic Blessings is known as a Trinity Invoker, and what sets them apart is the ability to pull together powers from all three Angels they have blessings on to create an attack of immense abilities. An example lies with the only known Trinity Invoker: Paradox. Paradox is able to use the powers of Time, Space, and Wind to create the “Banishing Wind” attack, which is not so much an attack as it is an ability to force the target into another dimension through a blast of wind laced with white energy streams. People with multiple Blessings sometimes become Artificial Angels.

Artificial Angels

An Artificial Angel is a species that sets itself apart from their original race not through appearance but through their internal workings. When a being doesn't just invoke Angelic Blessings but instead becomes a physical extension of the Angels who gave them the blessings they become an Artificial Angel. The tranformation is not noticable externally, but the internal workings of the being are changed. Their blood glows in its natural color (for example, a human who becomes an Artificial Angel would have glowing red blood) and the density of their form becomes much greater, making it more difficult to inflict mortal wounds to organs, and increases natural healing abilities making it possible to recover from normally life-crippling injuries (such as losing an eye) with time. It also, naturally, increases the potency of the powers they normally got from their Blessing.

There are only two known ways for a being to become an Artificial Angel:

A) The Angel(s) trigger the transformation themselves
B) A dying Artificial Angel transfers their Blessings to another person via blood ingestion.

Once a being has become an Artificial Angel they are unable to revert to how they use to be, and a side effect is they sometimes see normal people who have Blessings in their dreams, seeing what they experience.

Shadow Gunner

Age:	Unknown, appears to be a child, but claims to be much older.
Gender:	Male
Species:	Artificial Angel
Eye Color:	Dark Blue
Hair Color:	Dark Brown
Height:	5'1”
Weight:	127 lbs.
Angel Powers:	Chaos and Order

Appearance
Gunner is child-like in appearance, looking no older than 13 and having a very deceiving slim build. His dark brown hair nearly reaches his shoulders in the back AND the front, his bangs are extremely long, but cut and styled specfically to go around his dark blue eyes for the most part. His skin is extremely pale Caucasian. Gunner wears a black cloth jacket with blue stripes going down the sleeves, the stripes have dark blue borders. He wears black pants with the same stripe design as his jacket going down the legs. His pants are held in place by a black cloth belt with a silver buckle, though it is typically hidden under his white t-shirt. His footwear consists of dark red boots with metal toes and thick black soles. He wears a gray scarf around his neck, and wears a high-tech visor over his eyes, held on his face by circular metal clamps that go on his ears.

Weapons
Gunner posesses a multi-form weapon called the Spirit Utility. Its default form is a five-foot silver staff with a blue crystalline orb on one end, held in by spires from the staff. It can assume multiple forms, but the most common forms Gunner uses it in are as follows:

Basher - A four-foot long cylindrical weapon, with the silver becoming thicker than the staff form and shortening to around 3 feet, while the orb becomes a handle with guarding on one side. Most commonly used form.

Double - Splits the Basher into two smaller versions, mainly used for quick combat against multiple opponents.

Surprise - Not so much a form as a surprise attack from the Basher form, Gunner draws a strait single-edged sword from the shaft of the Basher.

The Spirit Utility is capable of purging infections from people, but requires a pure heart to use properly. Gunner maintains constant mental restrictions on himself to be able to weild the weapon.

Gunner also carries a pair of silver blaster pistols that fire stun bolts. These were his weapons of choice before he obtained the Spirit Utility. They are about a foot long each and collapse for easy storage.

Abilities
Gunner's passive abilities consist of unnatural strength, able to smash through solid concrete with just his punches, and speed that comes from distorting the space around him, giving him the appearance of being faster than sound but without the friction or actually breaking the sound barrier. Gunner is unable to attack while using his spacial distortion, but is extremely agile even without his speed. Despite his speed and strength, Gunner is extremely fragile and injures easily.

Gunner has several active abilities, most stemming from his Angel powers. The powers of Chaos create energy waves that can be used to either enhance his attacks or form projectiles. The power of Order enables Gunner to float in the air for short periods of time or to shield himself. These powers are evident by the color of their energy, Chaos being red and Order being blue.

When Gunner pulls these powers together, it enables the Turmoil Form, in which his visor retracts into his earpieces as he sprouts purple energy wings and his eyes light up. In this form Gunner is capable of flight and speeds greater than normal without the need for spacial distortions, enabling him to attack while moving at high speed. His finishing attack uses Turmoil Form to knock his opponent into the air while he speeds past them through the air, hitting them with “construct” swords made of Turmoil energy nine times before stopping. He calls this attack the Dance of Nine Swords.

Gunner's last ability is Dimensional Interference. He is able to travel between dimensions and create “fields” that ignore the rules set by people who can manipulate the world around them. This ability is a necessity for interdimensional combat, though it is not a natural ability. There are circuits that run through his body that produce the abilities, and they glow blue when activated. Due to how close they are to the skin, they are easily damaged in combat and requires regular maintenance to allow proper functionality.

Personality
Gunner is a cheerful person on the surface, almost always having a playful grin on his face. Beneath that carefree face, however, is someone who has little idea of how to interact with people. He's friendly and outgoing, however his mind functions more on logic than emotion. What appears to be compassion is actually just curiosity. This is a result forcibly removing aspects of his spirit that pertain to mental states such as greed or anger, which in an effort to leave him as “pure” in heart has actually made him nearly incapable of feeling emotions. All of his friends are people who are able to fight, actually basing his choice in friends on their powers rather than actual feelings of attachment. He is deathly afraid of his emotions gaining a foothold in his mind again, as it could interfere with his ability to weild the Spirit Utility.

Background
Gunner originated in a fairly unremarkable Earth in another dimension, and led a fairly normal life until he was pulled away to help reorganize and lead Ultranis. When he started out, he was glory-hungry and overconfident, but as a result of his gaining the Spirit Utility he has become a completely different person, not even acknowledging his origins.

Story So Far
(Continuing from Nitrode's Betrayal )

After foiling the attack on Station City, Gunner realized that he was nowhere near Nitrode's level of ability, and numbers would only deter him for so long. He sought after a power said to be able to adapt to its weilders needs, and his quest brought him to the Order of the Spirits. They presented him with one of their weapons, the Spirit Utility, but on the condition that he pass their test to weild it. This test was a “Spiritual Exorcism” that seperated his spirit to only leave his mind and purity behind. The physical side effect was his body became child-like in appearance, and the mental side effect was forgetting a great deal of his past. He still remembered who people are, but not what his history with them was. The final part of the test was to deal with an interdimensional serial killer known only under the codename “Crossfire.” Crossfire had no special abilities to speak of, but his reaction times enabled him to fight Gunner to a standstill. Crossfire was not defeated, but Gunner did succeed in damaging the device he was using to cross through dimensions, which was enough to satisfy the Order.

Little did Gunner realize that the dimension Crossfire ended up in was 3606-SOAH. Nitrode's next attempt to take Station City was covert, placing creatures he had taken from other dimensions in an attempt to cause confusion and as much destruction as possible. Gunner was the first responder, and several of Station City's inhabitants participated in the hunt for the creatures deposited in the city. Nitrode also gained two agents in the city in the form of Crossfire and a demon named Lynness. The battles awakened Gunner's Angel abilities and fully merged with them rather than simply invoking them, causing Gunner to become a new creature dubbed an “Artificial Angel.” The new powers proved effective enough to once again drive Nitrode back, but not defeat him.

During the downtime after the covert operation, Leos escaped from Nitrode, but he had already found a replacement: Leos and Solarion's younger sister, Galicia. Galicia had also managed to escape upon being sent to eliminate Gunner. Gunner was able to use the Spirit Utility to sever Nitrode's “link” to her so he couldn't track her. Galicia quickly became attached to Gunner, feeling indebted to him for freeing her. This was quickly changed when Gunner failed to save her from Nitrode, who had taken her back to the Empire and nearly killed her in an attempt to “make an example” of her. Leos appeared to save her, and made it back to Gunner, who severed Leos's link to Nitrode as well. Galicia would continue to hold a grudge against Gunner for this until he finally regained her trust when he appeared to help her and Leos end Nitrode's reign.

Gunner had gone in disguise, only revealing himself when Galicia once again found herself facing Nitrode. Nitrode and Gunner clashed, and for the first time forced Nitrode to use his Light powers in an attempt to incinerate him. At this point, Gunner used a desperation move by merging the Chaos and Order powers, causing the Turmoil Form to emerge. Gunner succeeded in defeating Nitrode for the first time, not only defeating him but removing the OmniCrystal and destroying it. The immortality Nitrode was granted by it remained intact, and the destruction of the crystal released the energy into Gunner and Galicia, making them immortal as well. Gunner currently serves as an ambassador between Station City and the newly formed Delphian Kingdom, led by Galicia.

After the Delphian Kingdom was formed, Nitrode set up a new capital city for his empire under the sea in 3606-SOAH, in close proximity to the island Station City was located on. He would continue to launch attacks from this location for some time, as well as bringing the Hellspawn Angelica Lucris under his command. Together they launched an offensive on Station City, only to be beaten back once again.

A short time after the formation of the failed Neo Nitrenian takeover, Station City was attacked by a man named Dr. Aeolus, a mad genius who used both magic and technology to enhance his body. Aeolus turned out to be an enemy of the original Nitrenian Kingdom, a man who had defeated nearly the entirety of their armies single-handed. It took the combined might of the Royal Trinity just to force Aeolus out of their dimension, and he had spent his time learning Dimensional science and magic to cross to wherever his enemies were, leading him to a weary Nitrode and Angelica, seemingly killing Nitrode and forcing Angelica to retreat.

Nitrode reappeared to aid Gunner and Station City as a whole, but he noted that he could only hold Aeolus back for so long and instructed Gunner to form a plan during this time. The solution presented itself when Station City had some new travelers passing through: An agent of the Order of Angels named Paradox and cursed human soul named Nageki. Gunner quickly felt their presence, but did not understand why. He discovered upon contact with Paradox that both Paradox and Nageki were discarded portions of his spirit, and when in close proximity they could feed off eachother's senses. They used this to fight Aeolus, and after a long-fought battle, Aeolus simply could not keep up with all three of them when their senses were linked, enabling them to see his movements from nearly every conceivable angle. Nageki would become a friend to Gunner after this battle, but Paradox refused to accept that he isn't the "original" between them.

Paradox

Age:	21 (Aging process has halted)
Gender:	Male
Species:	Human
Eye Color:	Brown
Hair Color:	Brown
Height:	6'3”
Weight:	115 lbs.(Powers make him lighter than he really is)
Angel Powers:	Wind, Space, and Time

Appearance
Paradox is a tall, slender man with very long bangs but very short brown hair in the back. Normally, his bangs are parted to the right, but he moves them to going strait down when he's wearing his mask. His eyes are a very typical brown and his skin is very pale. He dresses very professionally at all times, his outfit of choice being a white button-up shirt, a dark blue vest, dark blue trousers, black shoes, and a black belt with a silver buckle. When he's expecting trouble he wears a black frock coat and a menacing face mask with a camera on the strap that goes around the back of his head. The mask is black aside from a grinning teeth-like pattern across the bottom.

Weapons
Paradox carries two weapons hidden in his coat, a kodachi sword drawn from the right side, and a Browning Hi-Power pistol in his left sleeve. His right sleeve contains a grappling hook that can reach up to 25 feet and gradually builds up pressure automatically for launching it via compressed air. His mask contains a Heads-Up display with a feed from the camera on the strap, the pressure level of the grappling hook, and features several vision modes for tracking different kinds of targets such as Infra Red. The mask also detects firearms and displays possible bullet trajectories.

Abilities
The Angel of Wind powers make Paradox lighter and much faster on his feet than a normal person, able to jump up to 5 five meters into the air and run up to 15 miles per hour. The Wind power can also be manifested to allow him temporary flight, which lasts for around 30 seconds, and allows him to fire a blast of air once every 15 minutes with hurricane-force winds.

The Angel of Space power allow Paradox to travel through space and bring other people with him if desired. This is accomplished by finding a point called a “Contact Point” where dimensional barriers are naturally weak, this could be a door or any sort of object that opens, like a dumpster or a crate. Once he finds a compatible point, he is able to cross over to The Void, where his “home” is. Paradox's home in the void is an infinite expanse of pitch black, though there is an invisible solid mass that supports people who are there as well as the furniture and walls. There is a permanent contact point here, which is a simple wooden door standing on its own. From that door, Paradox can travel anywhere throughout space by telepathically searching for where he wants to go. He can also travel to other dimensions as well using this power, though unless guided by the Angel personally he tends not to use it due to the infinite variables interdimensional travel entails.

The Angel of Time power essentially makes Paradox ageless as well as extends his ability to use The Void to travel through time as well. The functions are nearly identical to the Space travel, though more concentration is required for selecting a destination.

As a Trinity Invoker, Paradox can meld all of these powers together for an attack called “Banishing Wind” which is a blast of wind marked by streams of white energy, when it connects it sends the target to a random dimension. This attack requires a great deal of time to set up, a fully 15 minutes is required of him standing still to charge up the attack, making it impractical in one-on-one fights.

Apart from his Angelic powers, Paradox is an expert martial artist, marksman, and infiltrator.

Personality
Paradox is a smooth, fearless speaker, and he backs it up with unshakable confidence and a vast intellect. He can come across as arrogant, but he is quick to apologize if he offends someone. Beneath this exterior is someone in a constant need for action, trying to cover up how lonely and broken he is inside. He claims to have given up on the concept of love, and is instead driven by a need to avenge wrongdoings. The only person he cares about is his partner, Tsukasa. He is also very hostile towards Nageki and Gunner, unwilling to accept that he isn't “the original” between them.

Background
Paradox comes from an unremarkable dimension with almost no magical power. In fact, the only magic power comes through Angelic Blessings, and even then they are rarely if ever seen. Paradox was born Jacob Gunner, and also born as the vessel for the Angel of Hate. He was watched for years by a secret religious organization to ensure that Jacob stayed in control and the Angel did not take over. This did not hold, when he was 19 he succumbed to his hatred for the world around him and started hurting people wherever he went, but some small part of him was holding on to his morality and as a result never actually killed anyone. Two of his friends, Alex and Chrissy, were part of the organization tracking him and were dispatched to kill him now that he had awakened. Alex took a small team and attacked, but they were all beaten. This was not without consequence, however, as Jacob was gravely injured in the fight, taking several cuts all over his body. Chrissy showed up to finish the job, and while she did disable him she did attempt to give him a peaceful ending, letting him “rest” for a bit as he died. She left soon after, confirming there was no pulse.

Through some miracle, he woke up, and was free of the Angel of Hate's influence. This was revealed to be the Angel of Wind, forcing the Angel of Hate from him and becoming his new Angelic Blessing. He took up the name Paradox and became a private investigator for a while before learning that someone had taken a sample of his blood after the fight and before the Angel of Hate was forced from him. They manufactured a “Berserker Gene” from the blood, and the source of it was a clone of him, a clone so perfect that once it woke up it went strait home, much to his friends shock. After a long, world-spanning adventure, the Berserker Gene was destroyed, freeing the clone from the Angel of Hate's influence and letting him live a normal life, taking his place. However, this upset the natural order of the dimension, as the clone was literally Jacob being in two places at once. The Angel of Space contacted Paradox-Jacob, telling him that either one of them needs to die for the balance to be restored, or he could allow the Angel of Space to give him his blessing as well, making him an agent for the heavens to travel through space. He naturally accepted.

Story So Far
Paradox has traveled a great deal in a small amount of time. The Angel of Time gave him a blessing as well along the journey, making him a “Trinity Invoker” able to combine all three Angel Power sets he had acquired for an attack that can banish someone from a plane of reality. While he has had many adventures, two are the most relevant to his current status.

The first is meeting his partner, Amaya Aoki aka “Tsukasa” who is an 18-year-old girl from a dimension that was in chaos due to “Evolved” humans with powers attempting to overthrown the government. Tsukasa was one of these Evolved humans, and her power was to see the future at all times, mixed in with her actual vision, making her very difficult to interact with. Tsukasa was a pardoned terrorist, being a minor at the time the organization she was a part of crumbled, and also due to the fact she helped bring it down in the end. All that mattered to Paradox is that her power was threatening dimensional stability for her universe, so he either had to kill her to relieve the strain on the dimension or she would also have to become an agent of the Angel of Space. Having little choice since she wanted to live, she joined Paradox, though not on the best of terms.

The other is what Paradox refers to as “The Lie” where he met Shadow Gunner and Nageki. Gunner revealed that Paradox and Nageki were discarded personality traits that were sent through reality when he went through his Spiritual Exorcism, and that they were all connected when in proximity. While this proved true physically, Paradox himself refuses to accept it, believing that he is the original of the three since Gunner was a character he made up back when he was in middle school, and it made no sense for the creation to be come the master. While he assisted his two “Others” in defeating the mad scientist Dr. Aeolus, Paradox does not become friends with Gunner and Nageki, opting to return to his duties as if none of it had happened.

[Gunner]

Tsukasa

Age:	18
Gender:	Female
Species:	Human
Eye Color:	Blue
Hair Color:	Black with purple extensions
Height:	5'3”
Weight:	128 lbs.
Angel Powers:	Life and Space

Appearance
Tsukasa is a frail-looking girl with short, black hair with long bangs and strait purple extensions around the sides and back. She has very pale skin and a smaller-than-average bust. Her eyes are blue but her hair is styled to almost completely hide her right eye at all times, held in place by a gold hair clip, and her left eye has a thin scar running down it. Her attire varies from day to day but the typical theme is her short blue jacket, a t-shirt, a short skirt of some kind over jeans, and tennis shoes.

Weapons
Tsukasa only has one weapon: A reverse-bladed Katana. It has blue wrap on the handle and a gold cross guard and cap on the end of the handle. As a reverse-blade the striking side of the blade is blunt while the inside is sharp.

Abilities
Tsukasa has Angelic blessings from the Angels of Life and Space. Her Space powers differ from Paradox in that while she can travel through space/dimensions like he can, she cannot take people with her. Instead, she is able to summon items from the Void, which is typically used to bring her sword out without carrying it. The Angel of Life slows her aging process to a crawl and enables rapid regeneration, which is compounded by her indomitable will to live. Most blows that would cause her to pass out from pain or blood loss, such as being cut at the throat, she is able to stay conscious through, just to make sure she heals.

Despite the Angel powers, Tsukasa was born as an “Evolved” human with a Perception-class evolution that causes her to see approximately five seconds into future constantly. She is unable to turn this off, and eventually she cut her left eye to cause partial blindness, nullifying the power in that eye but making it very difficult to see out of. Her right eye is still fully functional but she keeps it covered until she needs to use it. Sometimes, particularly strong events may end up being perceived by her power hours in advance, usually coming in the form of a daydream.

Personality
Tsukasa is a shy, withdrawn girl who rarely speaks. She has a very quiet and soft voice when she does speak. Despite how many combat-focused abilities she has she hates fighting and doesn't like hurting people at all, even in friendly competition. She only fights to protect herself and others when she's the only one around. If anyone is around who can fight better than she can, she lets them handle it. She's very fragile emotionally and has a lot of trouble making friends, though she does get along well with Paradox (though not at first) and is basically dragged into being Gunner and Galicia's “big sister” which while she doesn't get why they did it, it does make her feel loved. She also loves making up outfits to wear. While she does still go by Tsukasa as opposed to her real name, Amaya, she also responds to Amaya and the nickname Paradox gave her: Su.

Background
Tsukasa comes from a dimension very similar to our normal earth but with different names for the nations, as well as the existence of “Evolved” humans who posses some advanced trait in either Physical, Mental, or Perception classes. Tsukasa, real name Amaya Aoki, was born a Perception class. Not knowing why their child was talking to herself, her parents took her for a psychiatric evaluation. The doctor in charge recognized the Perception ability but did not tell her parents what it was, and instead told them she needed to be kept for observation. During this time, they ran a great deal of experiments on her, never letting her out of her “cell” unless it was for tests, and even then it was still inside a building. Eventually, her father managed to get her released, but was required to keep her at home at all times, separated from the house. She was kept in a small shack that was fenced in, but her parents would always try to get her to come eat in the house or go shopping with them. She always refused, having a deep feeling of abandonment regarding what was done to her.

Eventually she was approached by the enigmatic “Dr. M” who offered he a chance to strike back at the entire world with his organization. She accepted and became his right-hand, her power alerting them to potential problems with the aid of a device Dr. M had constructed which let her see farther into the future. Eventually, she was given a field assignment to capture a Dual-Class Evolved named Ray Bates who possessed both a Physical and Mental evolution. Despite Ray's natural fighting prowess, the sheer fact that Amaya, now codenamed Tsukasa, could see every move he was going to make resulted in his loss. He did manage to escape from her, though, and this lead to a chain of events where they would speak, and more and more he kept reaching through to the side of her that knew what she was doing was wrong.

One more field assignment had Tsukasa planting devices provided by Dr. M around a hospital, the hospital where her mom worked. She did not know what the devices did, but was shown in the worst way possible when her mom came out and saw her. The devices went off, incinerating everything inside the field created by the devices, and Tsukasa saw it before it happened, desperately trying to warn her mother but was too late. In her grief, she attempted to blind herself, but was stopped soon after cutting her left eye by Dr. M. While she stayed with him for a short time after that, she eventually took an opportunity to escape and find Ray. Ray had been recruited to help bring down Dr. M by the Counter-Terrorist Force despite his young age. The CTF raided Dr. M's headquarters and Tsukasa and Ray confronted Dr. M, who revealed that he was a Trinity-Evolved, possessing all three evolutionary classes. Between the two of them, however, Tsukasa and Ray had all three classes as well. Working together, they were able to bring him down. Due to the fact she was still a minor and helped the CTF in bringing down Dr. M, Tsukasa was granted a pardon and allowed to go free, after which she started a relationship with Ray.

After a year of peaceful times and finally starting to feel like a human being, Tsukasa was suddenly caught in a conflict between the remnants of Dr. M's organization and the CTF. The remnants attempted to capture Tsukasa to exploit her powers once more, but was beaten to the punch by a newcomer calling himself “Paradox” who told Tsukasa that he might have to kill her. Her power to see the future was linked directly to the fabric of her reality, causing a great deal of instability that could result in catastrophe should she die. The only option was for her to become like him, not linked to any single dimension by receiving the blessing of the Angel of Space. After that she would have to decide whether to stay there, where she was constantly being hunted, or come with him and be his partner. After a long discussion with Ray, he encouraged her to take his offer, saying that Paradox could protect her better than he ever could, and he would say yes if he were given the same option. She grudgingly accepted Paradox's offer and became his partner.

Story So Far
Tsukasa was attacked by a lunatic named Alister Lekt, who was a scientist blessed by the Angel of Death. Alister does not use his power responsibly, killing people for fun and using his scientific prowess to recreate people's Angelic Blessing through blood samples. It was at this time Tsukasa discovered she was blessed by the Angel of Life, who saved her self-mutilation of her eye from making her completely blind in that eye. However, separated from Paradox she had to temporarily reject the Angel's blessing to keep Alister from obtaining its power, leaving her near death after Alister cut her throat. Paradox finally managed to arrive and took Tsukasa away to find someone to help her until the Angel of Life could come back to her. He succeeded, and as a result Tsukasa has started to warm up to him.

When Paradox went to the 3606-SOAH dimension, Tsukasa met both Shadow Gunner and Galicia Nitorious. Due to Gunner's contact with Paradox, he knew everything that Paradox knew about Tsukasa, and the two took it upon themselves to make Tsukasa a happier person. They made Tsukasa their unofficial "big sister" and sparked a love for fashion with her. During Nitrode's final attack on Station City before Dr. Aeolus arrived, he had trapped the majority of the city inside a field with a bomb hidden in it that would wipe out everything in the field. Tsukasa had perceived the event well in advance, and was outside the field when it happened. She told Gunner where to find the bomb while she holds off the vastly superior Nitrode.

Despite her power saving her life from Nitrode's superhuman blows on numerous occasions during their battle, Nitrode's speed eventually proved to be too much for even her to keep up with, resulting in her being fatally slashed across the chest. Paradox, overcome with grief at what happened, refused to leave her side while Gunner and his friends fought Nitrode and Angelica Lucris. After the battle was over, everyone had gathered around their fallen comrade and prepared to lay her to rest, when suddenly she started moving again. A recent arrival to the city, Brandon Mortime, was not just blessed by the Angel of Life, but the Angel of Death as well, making him the Grim Reaper. He used his powers to stop Tsukasa from dying and healed her.

After seeing Paradox actually cared about her, Tsukasa has started to warm up to him.

Appearance:

General Appearance: Nageki's pale skin and dark purple hair almost give her a ghostly visage. Her hair is cut around shoulder length and covers her right eye in the front, all the way down to her chin and both of her ears are covered as well. She is very slender and has a small bust. She appears to be in her early twenties, having smooth skin.

Attire: Nageki typically wears a white hoodie, blue jeans, black hiking boots, black racing gloves, and a black belt with a silver buckle. She wears a black t-shirt under the hoodie, and depending on the weather she may wear a green cloak as well. The white scabbard for her claymore is on her back, held by a brown belt. The scabbards for her backsword and dagger are on her waist belt.


Weaponry and Armaments: Nageki carries a claymore she's named Snowfall that has a white handle. She also carries a backsword with a black handle and gold hilt and a red-handled dagger to accompany it. When she feels like she's outnumbered she may resort to a pair of USP Expert 9mm pistols kept behind her, hidden in the back of the hoodie.


Abilities: Nageki has a regenerative ability that, while its limits are unknown, can bring her back from death. While she would be clinically dead, she would still experience the pain of being dead right up until she regains use of her body. Aside from that Nageki has agility, speed, and strength greater than any normal human. She can lift up to 100 pounds without exerting much effort, run up to 10 MPH, and jump up to 25 feet into the air.

Fighting Style Analysis: Nageki uses a varied fighting style with elements of several martial arts from around the world and is familiar with nearly every kind of weapon ever made. While she is familiar with weapons, she is most skilled with the weapons she does carry, and can have difficulty adapting when separated from what she's most use to. She also has difficulties in hand-to-hand combat, but when she does she relies on kicks more than anything else, as kicks are part of her swordsmanship skills.


Bio:

History: Nageki is a condemned soul, cursed to walk the earth and never feel warmth again. The only exception to this rule is when she helps someone, and when she does she feels a warmth in her heart again. She was cursed long ago in early A.D. Rome by an Angel whom she had refused to help for selfish reasons, and even added to the suffering of the Angel. The curse turned her skin nearly snow-white and changed her hair color to its unnatural state. Ever since then she has acted as a tool of Heaven, being directed to people who need help, and more often than not she finds a battle that must be fought with a Demon to be able to resolve the situation. Over time she has grown accustomed to this role, and as a result is fluent in many languages and posses knowledge from around the world. The name "Nageki" is a word she picked up in Japan, and decided it would stick.

Personality: When she first became cursed, Nageki was suicidal and angry. After a thousand years of tempering her anger, she's become a sharp-witted and sarcastic girl. She's learned to live with her curse and carry out her mission of helping others.


Trivia: Nageki is always cold during all times of the year in any environment.
