A cheerful and optimistic traveler from a world called the Aether, and to the inhabitants of Radisrol, rightfully known as the Otherworldly Traveler. She goes out of her way to help others in need whenever possible and loves the thrill of adventure. She is also a warrior, and wields a peculiar energy known as the Sanguine Force, a crimson aura she can channel to various parts of her body to unleash devastating attacks. By channeling this very same energy to her massive greatsword, she can freely change its elemental properties according to the situation at hand. She is also a mechanic, having worked various machines with other Aetherian engineers in the past, and can fly a Windglider--a mode of transport akin to a windsurfing board with an engine attached to the underside--as well as an Aetherian airship.

Conversely, she can be rather short-tempered and rash at times, if not arrogant, and often resorts to violence to solve most problems. She can also be adamant and strong-willed once she has set her mind to something, which at times prove to be a double-edged sword for her companions.

Equipment Info:

• Sword Shifter - A massive, single-edged greatsword with a gray and teal sheen. Named for the fact that the user can change its elemental properties at will.
• Traveler's Togs - Relatively light armor for the relatively carefree traveler.
• Dog Tags - A reminder of a past not meant to be remembered.

Ability Sets:

> Sanguine Force

A radiating burst of crimson energy that can be channeled throughout various parts of the user's body. This boosts the user's strength, stamina, and fighting enthusiasm, but has the side effect of causing the user to go on a berserker rampage if used excessively.

• Roaring 40 - Basic brawler combo. The user rushes in to deal quick punches before kicking the opponent and sending them reeling.
• Jet Stream - Throw an uppercut that sends the foe airborne, and deliver a pair of roundhouse kicks before slamming them to the ground with a dropkick.
• Backdraft - Enveloped in an aura of flame, the user slams their charged fist into the target. User sustains damage.
• Convergence - Channel energy to both palms, and bring them up together to fire a searing bolt of crimson lightning towards the target.
• Tempest - Concentrating her energy into herself, the user charges forward and beats the target upwards into the air. Energy is then concentrated to a single fist, and with a corkscrew spin, the user drives their fist into the target and sends them into the ground.
• Headwind - The user grabs the target, and slams their forehead against them. Stun effect.

> E-Swordplay

Hack away at opponents with swiftness, aggression, and an array of elements.

• Shift - Change the elemental alignment of the user's weapon between earth, fire, wind, and water.
• One-Two-Three - Basic sword combo. Deal quick, aggressive sword strikes.
• Rise and Fall - A rising slash that finishes with a downward, vertical cut.
• Shredder - A spinning sword attack that finishes with a rising slash, sending the enemy flying.
• Cutting Edge - Swing sword towards the enemy to send a blue shockwave that can cut through steel.
• Air Drop - Leap into the air before landing with a vertical cut.

This, mi amigas, has been one hell of a long time coming.

After years of slumps, artist blocks, and never-ending redesigns, I've finally come up with a more solid design, cleaner profile and revised ability lists for one of my most prominent OCs of all time. And to think I had to be distracted from my studying just to finally get it going. Definitely worth it.

I redesigned the Sword Shifter so it would be completely different from the 2012 version, which was based off the controls of my old PSP. As much as possible I want to move away from the concept of associating objects with consoles and go for a much more original design, also because drawing the sword with my previous design is honestly a fucking bitch to do. Of course the design still needs work but I'll be happy with how it looks right now because goddamn drawing her such a simple sword to use is so refreshing and an utter relief.

Can't promise for how long this streak of motivation will last but I'll keep going for as long as I have it...
