Player: John
Name: Was never given one, merely addressed as “Artifical Being Alpha” or A.B.A. for short.
Appearance: A.B.A. looks physically identical to this.
Instead of bandages she wears more appropriate clothing, shifting them to suit the people she’s with or the situation she’s in.
Personality: A.B.A. is a woman who holds loyalty and duty above everything else in life. Given the tragedy she's endured and the constant refusal of a satisfying revenge she is a woman possessed. When she is not motivated by a goal though she cal allow herself to relax and will appear quite normal, if a bit pigheaded.
Alignment: Neutral
Equipment: Her clothes and a pack full of contents that only she has seen and has access to. It mostly holds travel gear, but there's certainly more she has stashed away in it.
Weapon: A shapeshifting weapon named by her. It’s default shape is a large Key known to her as Paracelsus.
Magic: Her body has the power to shapeshift into anything of the same approximate size and humanoid shape. Thus she can look like any person she has met or transform her body into looking like its made of different material. However all transformations are superficial, thus appearing to wear armor will not actually protect her like it should.
Also, should she find a dead person and use the key in her head on their body before they decay, she can effectively steal that person for her own use. Everything from their knowledge, memories and powers become hers to use as long as she remains in that form.
Taken Power:
Velstia Normire(minor healing, clairvoyance)
Unknown(power yet unseen)
Combat: Due to innate shapeshifting powers she strikes either by fooling her opponent into thinking she is someone they trust before attacking or she relies on the powers stolen by fallen warriors when she gains them. Either way her weapon training from long ago has allowed her to be a merely competant warrior with Paracelsus' aid.
Flaws: A.B.A. by herself is like a child that grew up too fast. In many ways she needs the spirits of others inside her just to know how to act or to understand people and their motivations. Without them she is impulsive and narrow-minded in her actions.
In addition her greatest strength can also be her greatest weakness, as the spirits whose power she borrows from can begin to force their own wills over her with prolonged use. What begins as simple changes in mannerisms or attitudes can soon become sharp changes in her persona unless she either takes long breaks from using the spirit, or purging them from herself altogether.
History: Thousands of years ago the King of Guasto, Arcturius Mezmillion ruled over his land, fearful of death creeping slowly closer with each day for he lacked an heir. Despite the best efforts of his wizards nothing could bless him with a child, so he turned to the mysterious Frasco, a man who promised him not only a child, but one guaranteed to be a worthy heir. Arcturius accepted and the man Frasco wasted no time. With a combination of the necrotic arts and science he grew the being he dubbed A.B.A. for she was his first successful creation.
When he brought her before the king he looked at her disapprovingly, crying out he had no need for a daughter, for a woman would not be able to rule his people. She bowed to him, “As you wish Father.” and shifted into a male. Arcturius could only stare at her, afraid of the creation. Yet he knew that he needed an heir and reluctantly accepted her.
She spent all her time trying to seek his approval, yet nothing made him proud of her. When the great war came about she volunteered to battle alongside the Saints. Frasco, not wishing to see his creation die gave her the shapeshifting weapon Paracelsus that he had created.
(SAINT ARC)
After awakening with the rest of the remaining Saints Army A.B.A. followed Kain loyally until a battle in Santo Luce separated A.B.A. from the rest of her group. When she was able to make it to the Tower of Salvation, a building holding a demon Kain wished to release under his control, she found most of her allies had perished in the fight while some had fled to continue their lives.
In her search she found Nia, Sonorc, and Van, and through them learned that those that lived had all betrayed Kain or fled the battle entirely. Her search for friends turned to a path of revenge against her traitorous brethren. Her journey had eventually lead her to Crepusculum to find Profeta, where since then she has not been seen.
