Profile


Chroma Helica

-----------------------------------

Age: 19. Contracted at 16.

Physical appearance: Kind of short (about 5'3"). Has curly, messy dark blue hair. Chubby and bottom-heavy. Tan skinned. Tends to dress in a low-effort fashion: flannel button-downs worn open over printed tees, whatever jean shorts or skirt are lying around at the time, and sheer tights or leggings. However, she have a soft spot for yumekawa fashion, and has managed to become online friends with a particular kawaii content creator. Her eyes are a deep navy blue with flecks of cyan, and they glow fully cyan when she uses her magic.

Wish: "I want other people to see me and refer to me the way I see myself!"

Weapon: A sling-staff. The head of the staff folds out to reveal the sling portion. She or her battle partners can enchant the sling ammo with various magical effects before hurling it. She can also use the staff to cast and direct electricity.

Abilities: Control over electricity. Can direct electricity in the environment, generate it herself, envelop others in it as a shield, charge her sling ammunition with it, and so on. Good in medium-long range combat, and Connects well with her girlfriend Trisha's magic; the two often rain electrified glass shards on their enemies, or create ball lightning with molten glass contained within. Her unique magic is illusion, making it easy for her to hide her appearance from other non-magical girls.

Special attack/Magia: Tormenta Titánica. Rain begins to fall around Chroma as she stands at the center of a brewing storm. Her eyes are shut, tears falling quietly, commingling with the raindrops. As the storm reaches a fever pitch, with thunder rumbling loudly and lightning striking all around, her eyes snap open, now glowing bright cyan, and the lightning bears down on her enemies, scorching them.

Personality: A lonesome and ill-at-ease trans girl. Nervous, restive, and paranoid, she tends to avoid others, though when she finds a group she vibes with, she sticks close to them. Likes retro tech, anime, kawaii fashion, and cryptids.

Witch/Familiars: Perkūnas, the witch of storms. Her nature is restlessness. Has the appearance of a great lightning-blasted tree. The Witch's desire to flee is at odds with her rooted-down body. As she builds energy to move, an electrical storm forms overhead due to the resistance. The branches of the tree grow like veins to touch the growing storm and reap its energy. When the two touch, a massive electrical explosion occurs, the witch "teleports" to a new location in an instant, and little is left behind but destruction. There a constantly moving "knot" in the wood; in the center is a human-like figure, which contorts and writhes as though in pain. Her Labyrinth travels with her: the scenery inside bears resemblance to imagery seen in certain viral online videos.

Seeing as her body is rooted to the spot, she leaves the task of gathering victims to her familiars, the Woodcrawlers. The familiars are capable of manifesting through devices generally considered to provide information, such as TV screens, cell phones, and computer monitors, though they are more influential the bigger the screen they can infest. Once they've gained access, they begin amplifying her cognitohazardous broadcasts. Disguised as emergency alerts and other such messages, these broadcasts harm the human psyche, driving the victims to despair and either killing them or inflicting a Witch's Kiss, allowing them to be shepherded to the labyrinth. Once there, their bodies slowly become stringy red sprouts rooted to the spot, surrounding her. Given time, they would grow into trees similar to Perkūnas; the witch is thus pleased with seemingly having found those alike to her. However, the nature of her method of movement means that when she departs, the sprouts are burnt to cinders.

Doppel: Perkūnas, the Doppel of paranoia. Its form is a Special Tree. The master of this emotion is embedded at the hips into the "palm" of this tree, and channels electricity through its roots into her enemies. She is high in the sky and all alone, but feels perfectly safe in her isolation. Under duress, the branches of the tree curl around her, though it is unclear whether this Doppel takes this action to protect its master. If this Doppel's master overuses its power, she may find herself surprised, transported to another world by it.
