Profile
"My name is 42."
One of the only Elysians with the Dawnstar designate, Orion is a relic from the past with a mysterious history. She 'joins' Nightfall after Artorius offers to help her regain her memories. Though she is not an official member, she does come to accept several Nightfall contracts as part of her agreement with the clan leader, albeit begrudgingly.

Orion might act as if she's quiet, at least initially, and her expression usually deadpan, but don't let it fool you! Her mostly impassive appearance and demeanor belies that she can be very emotional. A stubborn and relentless force, she won't back down even when she’s clearly wrong or it gets her into trouble. However, on the flip side, her persistence could be taken as an admirable quality. Orion will keep going, even past the point where most sane people would quit - As long as she cares, that is! Others often view her as a brute, since she deals with many situations through force or tends to speak in a blunt and tactless manner.
Orion does not really possess a 'heroic soul'. Despite her abilities and strength, she cares little to use it for the benefit of good (or evil, for that matter). Orion does not think much about whether her actions hurt someone else or not. If she does good, it is less about the ideal of good itself and more that it was an act of convenience or simply because she deemed it necessary or on a whim ; conversely, it is the same if she performs acts that some might consider evil. Very rarely are her decision-making skills rooted in anything particularly deep, such as a code of honor or a particular creed she adheres to. Orion does whatever she wants and listens to no authority but her own. However, she is less likely to burn a bridge than cross it, even if she isn't always the most well thought out or logical individual. She isn't exactly brilliant, but isn't stupid either; to call her 'dumb' might be a gross misunderstanding and a terrible mistake, even if she is not all that eloquent in action or speech. Orion makes up for her deficit in book-knowledge with her quick thinking and observation abilities.
Orion mostly depends on gut instinct to guide her, which makes her quick to leap to action when called upon or thrown into it. She is very adaptive, and will act with bravado in the face of insurmountable odds. However, her tendency to act on impulse can make her very unpredictable. At her worst, she is a violent, uncompromising, and vicious person, though there is some good underneath her prickly exterior. She is slow to warm up to others, and even so, she won't change for anybody. She has a love of adventure and excitement, but can quickly become impatient and difficult if things aren't moving at a desirable pace. Despite this, her brash nature and enthusiasm is almost contagious (or horrifying, depending on how you view it). Sometimes that enthusiasm tends to make her seem more like a dork than intended, as she can be a bit overzealous in her endeavors and comes off as a bit corny or foolish as a result. While she may not always be consistently helpful or kind, she does often try to inspire her allies to action and will prop them up if need be, even if her motivations are rarely selfless.

ATTRIBUTE: Corrupted
Corruption is a forbidden process which few Elysians survive. It entails embracing the worst aspects of oneself and embodying a negative state of being in exachange for raw power. Though it confers massive amounts of strength and power, it has significant tradeoffs for this exchange. Elysians who undergo this process are shunned and hated by the general populace due to their destructive tendencies. The powers an Elysian gains by this process is usually governed by their personality and traits.
Drawbacks to Corruption typically include; Healing magic will cause damage; The dark aura of Corrupted Elysians also attracts hostile shades and spirits, making them a magnet for danger and it makes them very easy for attuned individuals to locate; Corruption can cause its users' mental intregity to gradually weaken the more they rely on it and hallucinations and delusions are common side-effects; Corrupted Elysians are also weak to powerful sources of postive soul magic, though if they have the upper hand or are on equal terms they may be able to absorb, overpower it, or cancel it out.
Due to Orion's corrupted nature, she possess strength and durability that far exceeds normal Elysians. She can also double jump, latch onto flat surfaces, wall run, teleport very short distances, and slow her falling speed. It also allows her to manipulate dark energy that takes a form similar to lightning. In addition, it can be channeled through objects. It often massively disrupts electrical equipment around her, as it can function as an EMP. She is also also able to absorb magic and other energy sources to empower herself or heal, though this process can have enviromental reprecussions.
SOULCORE: Atma [Dark Aligned]
The Atma Stones are mysterious stones that preceeded the artificially produced Spirit Stones that all modern Elysians are born form [At least within the Nightfall AU!!]. All Atma Stones were mined from the Fomorian's homeworld of Fomoria and were used to artificially seed the Spirit Stones harvested on Aurora. They contain great power, but they work most reliably when the light and dark energies are well balanced within them. Any Elysian with an Atma Stone at their core would be massively unstable, but carry extreme potential for power. The difficulty would be in achieving this potential.
Orion's powers and potential are unknown as a result, but she carries some immunities, vulnerabilities, strengths, and weaknesses that other Elysians may not have. Her Atma core makes it impossible for her to manifest a spirit-weapon or properly focus her energies, for example, meaning that most of her skills require a very short range to be controlled, or are prone to causing damage to both herself and others. Orion's soulcore has also long since had its balance thrown off, becoming dark-aligned when she became corrupted (it is believed that either this event is what caused her Corruption or is an effect of the Corruption). The Atma Stone within her is attuned to destructive energies and could potentially manifest almost any cataclysmic power. However, it is extremely weak to light-aligned energy as a result.
Atma Stones are also known for overloading their vessel, incapacitating them for some time. Since these abilities are so unpredictable and fluxuate so greatly, the measure of Orion's strength is unknown as a result.
The Seventh Needle [ Soulforged Weapon ]
Orion is incapable of manifesting an energy weapon construct / "Spirit Weapon". Instead, she uses a physical weapon called the Seventh Needle - which is a Soul-forged Blade that answers to her. The Seventh Needle can be summoned and dismissed at will, as long as the weapon isn't magically sealed. It can also amplify and focus energy. However, its effect is a bit double edged (no pun intended); It will amplify spells against the wielder if not properly blocked. The weapon was forged by Lucifer and infused by Orion in the distant past. Soulforged weapons are typically not constructed in the modern era due to the fact they are considered a liability for their users. By allowing part of or the entirety of one's soul to be tethered to a physical object, the person is greatly weakened if the weapon is unable to be called to them for any reason. Plus, if the weapon is wielded by another, they can channel their own energies into it, influencing the original soul or fragmenting it in unwanted ways that may permanently alter the weapon.
All Soulforged weapons have unique properties based on their user. In this case, the Seventh Needle absorbs and channels energy from both its environment and user, allowing the user to also channel that energy. It can store an unfathomable amount in itself without becoming destructively unstable as it uses itself as a stabilizer and tether for the less than stable aspects of Orion's soul, and so it was used to seal excess negative energies from the other six Atma stones by funneling them into itself and thus transferring this power to the previously inert Orion. However, without the weapon in hand, Orion is mostly left to only physical feats enhanced by this magic instead of actually being able to wield the magic.
Orion's weapon can shift its form to other weapons. It cannot manifest something that is not already part of the weapon or complex parts. It also cannot change its overall weight, size, or mass drastically. However, it can be split apart into multiple items. Its known forms outside of its standard greatsword are dual swords and a spear.

COMING SOON.
Lucifer
[ ??? ]
Lucifer is Orion's creator. She would dislike him more but she doesn't even remember him.
Artorius
[ Friend ]
Artorius is a member of Nightfall. She doesn't know him particularly well, but has some degree of respect for him - enough to generally listen to what he has to say. She is one of the few to fully trust Artorius, even if he gets himself into trouble frequently. Orion knows she can handle it and is willing to bail him out.

- Her outfit is made of fibers infused with spirit dust, which allows it to be slightly modifiable at will.
- Orion doesn't often realize her own strength and has a tendency to break things unintentionally.
- Though she is corrupted, Orion retains some moral integrity, likely due to the fact she is not particularly power hungry. Though she can very easily lose herself to the powers she possesses.
