Overview: Yayoi views herself as something of an arbiter of justice. She uses her power either to work with the Mythical Cycle, or to punish those "wrongdoers" she is made aware of. Her standard for what makes a wrongdoer is maybe a bit lower than what other people might use, but that matters little to her. As long as she's doing the "right" thing, she's happy. She can't really handle not being in control in most any given situation. She feels a need to lead the others in doing the right thing, but she is open to suggestions. She just needs to be leader.
She also has a rather set-in-stone mind. Her first impression of any given person she meets becomes her eternal opinion of them, and nothing, not even saving her life several times, will get her to change that opinion.

History

Yayoi was born the daughter of a pair of scientists. As such, she grew up surrounded by science, and loved it. She studied with her parents, taking particular interest in the stars and sky. When she was 16, she began to seriously study astronomy and astrophysics, and decided to pass this knowledge onto the world. When she went to college, she studied and became a teacher, returning to her alma mater of Amanogawa High School to teach science.
She noticed quickly that all was not well at AGHS. She began to investigate, and was confronted by Souta. He tried to scare her away, but that only made her more interested in AGHS's new dark side. After a few more encounters, Souta gave her the Cassiopeia Switch, explaining what the Zodiarts were and how she was now part of something even greater. Yayoi took all of this to heart, and began using her powers to pass judgment on who she believed were wrongdoers.
Souta, who had the linked Cepheus Switch, helped her, and they eventually fell in love and got married. AGHS offered that they could host a transfer student from America, and they accepted Andrea into their home. After a year of living with her, they brought her in to the circle as well, giving her the Andromeda Switch. It was sheer accident that her boyfriend, also a transfer student, was given the Perseus Switch, so the four of them began to operate as a unit.

Overview: Souta is almost the sort of pedantic asshole archetype. He's rather self-centered, and he has trouble conceiving that his actions will have consequences carrying into the future. He comes off as confident to the point of arrogance, priding himself in his physical condition and intelligence. He actually reads when he's got nothing better to do, and as such is usually carrying around a book of some sort, usually about history or philosophy.

History

Souta was born to a single mother. His father died in service to the military, so his mother had to raise him alone. Souta did as much as he could to help his mother, living from day to day with no concern for the future. Souta studied martial arts with his grandfather, and eventually managed, with enough work, graduate from college and get a job teaching at AGHS. After a few years, he finally managed to make it to a point where he wouldn't have to support his mother.
After a year or so of teaching at AGHS, he was approached by a robed figure. The figure gave him three Switches, explaining what they were, swore him to secrecy, and left him. Souta used the Cepheus Switch himself to test the idea, and quite liked the result. As he continued his work, occasionally operating as Cepheus to accomplish something here or there. Eventually, he learned of Yayoi's investigation, and confronted her. After a few more attempts to dissuade her, he figured he'd been given three Switches for a reason and gave her the Cassiopeia Switch.
After operating together, they finally admitted they loved one another and got married. The two of them accepted Andrea into their home about a year later, and Souta was the one to give Andrea the Andromeda Switch. Souta later decided to name the unit of four they'd come up with: the Mythical Cycle.

Dislikes:

• Not being in control

• She's got a good head for politics. She likes to think she's aware of who to kiss up to to ensure her own safety.
  
• She's quite flexible
  

Weaknesses:

• She's a bit self-centered. She occasionally ignores her "politics" in favor of doing what she wants.
  
• She can't win a fight on her own. She can hold her own, but she can't win.

Overview: Andrea plays her cards to the best of her ability. She is almost always attempting to improve her own status within the social food chain and avoiding mistakes that could tank her "rating". As a matter of course, she always tries to hand out with the cool people. She began dating Garrett partly because his status as a football player would catapult her up the ladder. She, like Yayoi, dislikes being out of control, but she absolutely hates that in order to make the others stronger, she has to be bound. By this point in the career of the Cycle, the only way to get her to do it is to hold her down and force her to.

Monster Stuff
Name: Andromeda Zodiarts
Type Of Monster: Zodiarts
Henshin Device: Zodiarts switch
Henshin Sequence: She hits the button on her Switch, triggering a burst of Cosmic Energy which obscures her body as she transforms
Forms:

• Form Name: Andromeda Zodiarts
  Image/ Description: Her form looks like her normal self, but her hair is now brown. She's also in something of an armored dress (breastplate with a skirt), she has an armored mask covering the lower half of her face, and she has manacles secured around her wrists and ankles. Hanging from each manacle is a chain, each about six inches long, with a spike hanging from the end of each.
  Motif: Andromeda, stars, monster
  Color Scheme: Brown, silver, white
  Transformation: See above
  Fighting Style: She fights in a fiercely independent manner, often refusing help
  Weapons: The chains on her wrists and ankles
  Abilities: She has generally improved statistics, the chains on her wrists and ankles can be used as whips (the chains can extend) or close-combat as stabbing weapons, and she can flash-step. However, if the chains are secured to something solid, binding Andromeda to the metaphorical rock and removing her from combat, the power of the Perseus, Cassiopeia and Cepheus Zodiarts all increase by a factor of three, past Last One levels without actually achieving the state. However, this effect only applies if one of the eligible Zodiarts is nearby.

History

Andrea was born the daughter of a pair of politicians. She never really knew want in her young childhood, her parents getting her anything she asked for. She began accompanying her parents to their workplaces and to campaign events at a very young age, and began watching her parents work. She noticed how they talked to certain people one way, and others a different way. When she asked, her parents explained that they were talking in a different way to people who thought different ways about them.
When she entered middle school, she began using the lessons her parents had taught her by proxy, rocketing to the top of the school ladder. She also displayed rather amazing intelligence, and when she was 15, she applied to be a transfer student overseas, in Japan. Her offer was accepted by AGHS, and she made arrangements to live with the Homuras. She bid goodbye to her family and left to attend high school in Japan. While there, she gravitated toward the one other American student she found, Garrett, and eventually they began dating.
Andrea used her politics skills at AGHS as well, and it attracted the attention of her host family. They gave her the Andromeda Switch, which kind of annoyed her. Andromeda gave others power through submission, and she wanted power. She had no choice in the matter, so she simply went along with it. She soon discovered her boyfriend Garrett had acquired the Perseus Switch somehow, and they formed the four-man unit, the Mythical Cycle.

• Failing to carry out orders

• Sports that aren't football
  

Strengths:

• He's a highly skilled combatant, both with a sword and with his fists.

• He takes orders very seriously.
  

Weaknesses:

• He's not one for tactics
  
• He's also not one for subtlety or tact.
  
• If he fails to carry out an order, his mind switches into a single-track mode and he will work until either told to stop or he completes the order

Overview: Garrett is not the sharpest tool in the shed, but he knows what he's doing. He's a very skilled fighter, and he values orders above all else. If he doesn't have orders, he doesn't function. Plain and simple. If he fails to carry out an order, everything else gets shoved to the wayside until he's given a new order or he finishes it through. He knows full well he casts an imposing presence, so he sometimes relies on his hulking mass to get people to not fight. Sometimes, a little too much.

History

Garrett was a military brat, through and through. Most of his young childhood was taken up by shuttling between military bases with his parents. He grew up in the military lifestyle, where orders meant everything and physical strength was key. Garrett began playing football about as early as he could, becoming quite good at it. His parents finally permanently transferred, to a base in Japan. He learned the language quickly, and continued to play football.
He continued along school, continuing to play football. He developed into a young man who placed great influence on authority, and felt that orders were the one unshakeable thing in his life. As he moved into high school, he met Andrea, and gravitated to her, finally having someone to speak English with. After a while, their relationship evolved and they entered a committed relationship.
After a year or so of school at AGHS, a robed figure approached him after practice. This figure gave him the Perseus Switch and told him his capacity for loyalty had won him the attention of some very powerful people. He agreed to work for this cause, and soon discovered that his girlfriend Andrea was working for them as well. He joined their little unit, working for them to achieve their goals.

[Admin]

I think I said on Skype I was still trying to figure out what to do with Dustards. Remove those and you're good, and I will start figuring it out.

[Yoko Minato]

Why not just replace Dustards with some other generic mook? Not like it matters, right?
