: ✥ '''Aetherology:''' <font style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px; color:#000;">This is Lycelle's passion, as well as area of expertise. Among the individuals she has met in her youth, mages were the ones whose skills fascinated her the most. Both natural talent and gruelling years of work have shaped her to be the powerful caster she is today. Her roots lie in thaumaturgy, from the results of her self study and her beginnings in their guild. She believes that all disciples of magic are worth exploring and that widening a mage's repertoire is both fun and advantageous - thus she has recently taken up arcanima as well. While she is aware of the theory in regards of summoning voidsent, she has no plans of performing a ritual in the near future - scripture dictates too many risks and downsides, and Lycelle would not commence an experiment until she is able to reduce that risk. Her defensive skillset is rather lacking: while conjuring aetheric barriers and enchancement is not outside her capabilities, Lycelle lacks the gift to mend wounds or to heal injuries. </font><br><br> | : ✥ '''Aetherology:''' <font style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px; color:#000;">This is Lycelle's passion, as well as area of expertise.

− | : ✥ '''Dark Arts:''' <font style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px; color:#000;"> | + | : ✥ '''Dark Arts:''' <font style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px; color:#000;">Recently, deep in the throes of fury and in fear of losing her companions, Lycelle would unconciously tap into her inner darkness. Wielding it to her feels no different than using the arcane magics of her livelihood, although the lack of a catalyst means that she can use it with any weapon, albeit at the cost of a steady drain on her aether. The ability is characteristic of a Dark Knight yet she doesn't know such a role exists, let alone be aware that she is walking down a similar path. Right now, she only thinks of it as a newfound branch of magic, and nothing more. Emotion is the only thing that dictates its presence, manifesting as a dark whisper to indulge in what she believes to be just (often murder) - but it also empowers, instilling in her confidence to fight for what she believes to be right.</font><br><br> |
: ✥ '''Swordplay:''' <font style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px; color:#000;">Experience and disaster in adventuring has led her to a rather rude awakening - not all situations can be solved with magic alone. Only then did she decide to explore other avenues in destruction, and the use of blades became her answer. Yet she still has much to go. Her skills still lack refinement - her style relies too much on charging and brute force, and she has little efficiency in blocking and parrying. More berserker than swordswoman, she would need to change her temperament in the battlefield if she would want to improve. She wields a greatsword on her back, defying expectations one would except from her scholarly background.</font><br><br> | : ✥ '''Swordplay:''' <font style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px; color:#000;">Experience and disaster in adventuring has led her to a rather rude awakening - not all situations can be solved with magic alone.

If a fight is inevitable however, I would like to discuss lasting outcomes from it if there are any - otherwise, whatever happens is fine with me. I am, however, admittedly inexperienced when it comes to RPing battles so I don't have a style in preference. Tips are very much welcomed! Furthermore, while my character does posses the Echo, I will not use it on a character without explicit permission. |
