Profile
"Fragile but strong and plain but iridescent" is a sentence to summarize Arciel. An innocent petite girl (149cm tall/36kg weight) who has fair skin, (kinda) flat body type, soft baby voice, and long wavy white hair. She doesn't have a certain fashion style and consistent color palette for outfits. Her forehead and ears are covered by hair, yet her eyes tell everything: they are rainbow like a color wheel with dark galaxy pupils.
Arciel is my OCsona and my Obey Me series' MC. Yeah, Arciel OBM OG (emoji: ποΈ) and Arciel OBM NB (emoji: π) are different person.
Personality
At a mere glance, Arciel is a sweet soul who needs to be protected, but actually, she is a complex person. She often looks calm, but can act childish around people she trusts and be wise if needed. She knows how to balance her thinking and feelings, although she denies her true emotion at some moments. Deep inside, she assumes herself low, but she's confident in things she is passionate about.

Abilities
This passive skill is self-healing and self-regenerating but only physically and for specific cases. It only heals injury from her internal or nature energy.
She can mastery the six elements (fire, water, wind, earth, light, and darkness) in very limited amount but its purity is the highest. Example: her (original) fire burns everything, she uses it to burn the coagulated pollutant when doing her duty as Daughter of Nature.
Manipulating six elements in nature (example: make a small tornado when the wind blows) and can borrow nature energy with consequences. Her half-human body is too weak to such power. If she forces herself or doing it in big amount/long duration, she might be fainted, even coma afterwards. Not stopping there, when she wakes up already, her internal energy still goes in chaos so she needs further treatment.
Story
Her mother was a scientist and environmental activist. Her father was a public attorney, defending weak people. The little family was living happily... until the turning point began when Arciel was 9 years old.
People accused her mother as an evil witch and burned her alive. Giusto and Arciel fought for justice for her, but they lost. Then, they decided to move to faraway place recommended by Noir's father, their closest neighbor. Arciel dropped out of elementary school and was taught by his father and friends of her parents. Her father often took Arciel to visit the people, showing her that there are still many good humans. Despite having non-formal education, Arciel is much smarter than other children at her age. Giusto once asked when Arciel was ready to go to school, Arciel answered she didn't know.
When Arciel was 14 years old, Giusto was forcibly removed (it's called desaparecidos) by the oligarchs after confronting them about an agrarian conflict. Arciel started living on her own and going to school according to her father's wishes. She was still searching for him. Fortunately, her family has some assets (but later she works as writer to help covering all the bills). Sometimes, Noir and her parentsβ friend come visit her.
Several years later, Noir was missing. He disappeared after going to the capital to investigate something. Not long ago, a humanitarian NGO contacted Arciel. They found the bones that allegedly belonged to Arciel's father. And, that day was exactly 10 years after cruelty happened to her mother.
Arciel was in despair. All her emotions exploded like a time bomb. She committed suicide by cutting the veins of her left hand but failed because her elemental spirit entity was activated. The next day, she was summoned to the Royal Academy of Diavolo.
In Devildom, she met new friends, family, and...love. Arciel and Leviathan's story can be divided to six chapters of life: The Beginning, The Pact, The Confession, The Bond, The Love, and The Vow.
Levarci's story: It's an Eternal Vow, My Love.
[Notes: In Arciel's world, there are no demon brothers because they died in the Great Celestial War. In the Nightbringer world, Arciel would not have been born, because Lilith, her ancestor took a different path.]
Arciel grew up in a warm and harmonious environment. If there was anything strange, it was the annual dream that had been present since Arciel entered Junior High School. In those dreams, a strange male voice kept calling her name from far away. Arciel tried to ignore it even though it kept repeating itself.
Then, she went to university in the big city. On her first day, she dreamed of a seven-colored light in a dark place. When Arciel woke up, a ring was on her finger. The ring returned even though it had been thrown away, eventually Arciel considered it as amulet. Solomon, Arciel's boarding house neighbor, named it Ring of Light.
One day, Arciel received bad news from her hometown. The agrarian conflict there is getting worse, and Arciel's parents are critically hit by stray bullets from the army. Panicked, Arciel went home. It took three transportations to get there.
When Arciel was on the ship, an undetected number sent a message. Unregistered. Arciel somehow seemed enchanted to reply to it. After that Arciel fell into the sea even though she couldn't swim well. She ever heard an unfamiliar voice and saw seven-colored lights.
She arrived in a strange dark place when she opened her eyes. Her physique had changed too. Demon? Was she already dead? Then she saw the men in the photo Unregistered had sent earlier.
"Lucifer, I'm afraid of that."
When the indigo-haired sea serpent demon said that, Arciel felt that his voice was similar to the voice in Arciel's dream. Arciel's left chest suddenly hurt, fortunately the symptoms subsided when she stopped remembering. And... it seemed that the demon also felt the same strangeness?
Arciel and Leviathan's story in Obey Me Nightbringer universe is still WIP, but so far they have complicated relationship and haven't been dating yet.
