Anything Else?
Inner Stuff
Likes:
- His/her work
- Changing
- People
Dislikes:
- Gender neutral pronouns
- Forgetting to change
- Situations where it's not exactly feasible to change
Strengths:
- A highly skilled fighter
- They can change genders at will via a simple spell. They're skilled at Makai magic as a whole by extension.
- Silver-tongued to an amazing degree
Weaknesses:
- They have to change at least once about every four hours. If they doesn't, the change happens without their consent, and without the spell, it hurts like being shot over and over, and they lose the ability to change voluntarily for two hours.
- Sometimes a little prone to getting in way over their head
- They're a little paranoid, and will usually try to avoid situations where changing is a problem.
Goal(s):
- Stop the Horror menace
Habits/ Quirks:
- They're both quite fond of cracking their wrists when bored
Relationships:
- Kol - Comrade
Overview: Alex is both a fighter and a lover. They can and will fight if the situation requires, but in mundane situations they much prefer attempts to talk their way out of it. Alex is deeply sarcastic about their rather odd gender circumstances, but absolutely HATES it when people attempt to use gender neutral pronouns. Gender neutral pronouns are usually mangled since there's no real consensus about the pronouns themselves, but they view it as a cheap attempt to be politically correct. They'd much rather prefer to be called by the pronoun appropriate to whatever gender they happen to be at the moment.
Years of situations where changing genders would be compromising at best, harmful to her safety and wellbeing at worst, have led to the development of a paranoia of such situations. They usually attempt to change for just a moment when no one is looking, as it's the act of changing and not the state of being changed that has a time limit on it, when the situation they're in requires that they remain a specific gender. This paranoia aside, Alex is kind of bad about getting into the exact situations she tries to avoid.
Hero Stuff
Name: Scorching Heat Knight YAIBA
Type Of Hero: Makai Knight
Henshin Device: His/her scythe
Henshin Sequence: They swing the scythe in a circle above their head, cutting a halo above them. The armor drops down onto their body in the appropriate form.
Forms:
- Form Name: YAIBA
Image/ Description: The slimmer version. It has a bulkier, male version when appropriate.
Motif: Fire, Knight, Scythe
Color Scheme: Red, silver, gold
Transformation: See above
Fighting Style: The style changes based on gender. He is a power fighter, using the scythe for wide, sweeping power attacks, more geared toward fighting large numbers. She uses a more acrobatic, focused style, with a larger focus on fire abilities, more geared toward fighting a single enemy.
Weapons: The scythe, obviously. The shaft can change length from as tall as the wielder to about half as much, and the blade can fold to both the standard scythe position and all the way out to resemble a spear.
Abilities: The armor raises their statistics greatly, and allows them to perform physical feats that most might consider impossible. The armor also allows them to create Madou Fire of a deep scarlet color, much like a Makai Lighter.
Finisher(s): Blazing Armament - A wide, powerful slash with the scythe after lighting the blade with Madou Flame.
Other Equipment:
- Her Makai Lighter
- Her scythe is much smaller in its Makaiken form, more of a sickle than a scythe.
History
The previous wearer of YAIBA and his wife, a talented senior Makai priestess, originally gave birth to a pair of fraternal twins. Just a week after they were born, a Horror attack severely wounded both children. The wounds were mortal on their daughter, but not on their son. They tried everything to save their daughter, but nothing seemed to work. Right before she slipped away into death, their mother attempted one last, desperate ritual. The spell claimed her own life, but it completely healed both children. Unfortunately, the small miscalculation in the spell that killed their mother also caused the two children to fuse into one being. It took three other priestesses to stabilize the child, but YAIBA finally had an heir, a son.
When Alex turned two, a new complication arose when Alex awoke as a girl. The priestesses studied her, and discovered that the magic that had saved his life as an infant had rendered Alex a being of both genders, only able to be one at a time. YAIBA took this into account and continued to train his child, teaching adjusted tactics for the differing physiques of both forms. Alex adjusted smoothly, learning the spell to control their own changes from the priestesses. They also studied a great deal of other magic, to help raise their ability to control their changes and because magic was cool.
When Alex turned 18, YAIBA turned the armor over to them, and Alex immediately traveled to the Order blacksmiths. They altered the armor so that it could accommodate both of their genders, and YAIBA went into duty.
