Profile

Fiora O'Brien is a shy girl from a sleepy town on the east coast, just south of New York. For most of her life she lived above a pub that almost nobody patronized, was watched over (and terribly pestered by) her older brother, watched movies, talked to her cat, styled herself a sleuth of many mysteries, frustrated her friends with conspiracy theories, and lived a more-or-less 'normal' teenage life. Now she and her friends bear the burden (and salvation) of a copy of Sburb - for the salvation and recreation of the universe itself. A shy red-headed girl like Fiora had only wanted a quiet life to pursue her small dreams and perfect her art. Now, finds herself thrust into a situation which is unlike she has ever experienced, with a role she barely understands - that of the Witch of Void, to commune and control the emptiness and shadow of her element for good or ill. She joins the other Heroes of her session, her friends Arthur, Summer, and Valentine, and arms herself with the mighty pens and inks of any aspiring author/artist, to try and make some sense of the crazy things that occurs all about her.

Advantages

Powers

Witch of Void: Fiora has abilities based on her role within the game of Sburb - the Witch of Void. As an 'active' class the Witch is one of change, action, and breaking rules, with Fiora pushed towards going and doing. Her aspect of Void empowers her in a broad spectrum of ways, with the themes of emptiness, darkness, silence, secrecy, destruction, and lack. Fiora's powers over the Void also render her utterly outside of any concept of Fate or Destiny, for better or for worse.

God Tier: Fiora has advanced within her universe to the point of becoming a deity of her element, Void, which gives her unrivaled powers over her element, Void. As part of becoming a God, Fiora is capable of resurrecting from any death that is not narratively climactic in nature, either justly (as a villain being defeated) or heroically (as a hero making a sacrifice). All other deaths leave her revived within minutes or hours as close to her point of death as possible, while still remaining 'safe'. Her aging is halted, and she has a deific set of clothes, or 'God-hood' that has the appearance that embodies 'witchy' and 'godly', can be changed with a thought, and can be summoned at will.

What Stares Back: Fiora's connection to the aspect of Void has one curious power that. rarely, can temporarily empower another person with great power by stripping them of 'that which holds them back'. This ability induces a frightening and unpredictable state in others - the only constant is that they act without restraint, whatever that restraint may be. When in this state, the person is visibly 'darkened' and looks distinctly different from normal. Fiora can also use this power on herself, her psyche subsumed to accomplish some single goal, which she pursues to the exclusion of all others. (Consent for others, Aura Flare 34->36 on self)

Skills

The Artist: Among the Kids in her session, Fiora is the one with the greatest artistic talent, most notably in drawing and painting. While she has a hard time appreciating her own work, she can create works of music, literature, and art quite capably.

Assets

Strife Deck: Fiora is quite the lucky girl from her world, holding three different Strife cards. The first is Penkind, allowing her to weaponize any pen-styled creative implement as a weapon. The second is Fistkind, allowing her to weaponize, quite literally, her lack of a weapon through physical attacks. Fistkind doesn't scale off of any implement but directly to her rungs on the Echeladder, and is the equal of any alchemized weapon she could weild or better. Her final Kind is Inkkind, allowing her to create or draw colorful constructs out of ink, which take on physical properties based on color and composition, used for puzzle-solving or weaponized purposes.

The ???: This simple fountain pen is alchemized from a staggering number of high-power items, and the ultimate form of this pen is a true enigma. This jet-black fountain pen contains an infinite amount of All-Color Ink, a fluid derived from ten artifact-level individual inks with various elemental effects all mixed together. The result of this is a 'weapon' of incredible power that combines both her Pen and Inkkinds to unleash their full potential. With it, the laws of time and space are bended, and she can draw ink-constructs nigh instantaneously, wherever she can see.

NPCs

The Questants: Three humanoid constructs that Fiora created out of a story she had written in a powerful artifact book with the communion medium of the outside things, given a semblance life and shape, and free will. Each has an item, and a single power, and working together they have much power to overcome obstacles, but are utterly helpless on their own. (See +info Fiora/Questants)

Disadvantages

Sylladurr: The Sylladex is an incredible item storage and inventory management device... When it works. Almost every Fetch Modi has its own quirks and rage-inducing requirements. Fiora's are very hit and miss. The Art Modi ranges from being incredibly random in the Sketch mode with anything more then simple shapes and concepts, to the worst and most retentive art professor ever, simply giving Fiora nothing in Masterpiece mode most of the time, or some sort of derisive and insulting result for her troubles. Her Sleuth Modus is no better, and has it's own unique limitations, some of which have been avoided through clever alchemy. The Sleuth Modus requires the user to wear a hat and use a magnifying glass even if they are trying to find something very large. Furthermore, gritty detectives don't need help breaking cases, and as such, nobody else can see what Fiora is looking for to help her. Thankfully, any items that could fit in a coat's inside pocket or under a hat will appear there, as long as she is wearing a coat or hat.

How Do I Sword (Kind Abstractus): While Fiora manages to use pens and ink in many unique and interesting ways, Use Fist on Man with the best of them, and can weild them at an increasing level of proficiency because of the Echeladder... She can't use anything /else/ as a weapon, no matter how hard she tries (weaponized Fetch Modi ejections notwithstanding). The Kind Abstractus locks her into her weapons, and she would need a new (and incredibly rare) Strife Specibus card for any new weapons she wishes to wield.

Echeladder: While the Echeladder as a construct of Sburb allows her to grow in power and grow into her role as the Witch of Void, increasing her physical 'stats' as well as her ability to use her Strife Specibi with increasing mastery... It remains a game construct, with limitations. Any victory, if it is to be counted, must be definitive. There is no 'partial credit' for the Echeladder.

The Empty Price: When Fiora self-targets with the power that strips 'that which holds back' away to empower herself, she runs a significant psychological risk. While she can control and stabilize any problems when she induces the state in others, she cannot stabilize the void within herself. Thus, it is a risky and volatile path to power - and using it too often (more then once a week), will permanently damage her psyche with the connection to her Aspect and the Outer .

Lass Fury: Fiora's temper has become a somewhat legendary, and debilitating, personal issue of hers. She is rather easy to set off, for any number of reasons, and once on the warpath, tends to act like an angry bull or mother bear - taking the most direct route she can perceive to answering the subject of her anger with as much power as she can muster to blast away or remove the object of her ire. She can act somewhat rationally in pursuit of what caught her tunnel vision, but her ability to think or act in a broader sense is severely limited.

Abstractum

This is for convenience for now. Hecate is a ???-type broom Abstractum.
