I got new brush pens from Faber-Castell, so I experimented with them by drawing a friend!
Character belongs to Alutori, amphimorphos by TuxedoDragon, art by me. CC BY-NC-SA 4.0
Languages: Atlesian, Valean, Mantlan, South Mistrali
Gender: Female
Species: Human (with a cybernetic shoulder and part-of-abdomen)
Aura Colour: Red
Schools and Team: Signal Academy (combat school), Beacon Academy (Academy)/Past Member of Team TCVA (Thistle)
Bestie Better Than The Restie: None
Homeplace: Atlas
Orientation: Graysexual Biromantic
Semblance: Trigger, a semblance that allows Alutori to produce iron or steel-like feathers from her arms and legs. These feathers can be used as projectiles or as blades. By regrowing too many feathers at once or reproducing them too rapidly, she runs the risk of severely injuring her arms, which she sometimes has issues controlling so she has a first aid kit of her person at all times. She also has control over the density of the feathers, able to bend without breaking them and mould them in order to form scythes, swords, etc. Overly large feathers are trouble though, as the largest she can produce is around a metre long give or take a centimetre.
Weapon: Her Semblance.

Trivia:
Growing up as the child of two Huntsmen and teachers, Alutori spent most of her young childhood in Beacon, Atlas, or generally around the Atlesian military. Everything was a toy in her eyes or a playground to run around with Bardleby and she made friends with soldiers and students alike. Mimicking the Ace Ops while they trained, she’d memorise different techniques to the best of her abilities, especially Clover.
Her cybernetic parts came from a mission in her second year at Beacon. After running away from her team in a mindless pursuit of a pack of Beowolves, the two Alphas and five smaller Grimm got the better of her and broke her Aura much easier than she thought them to be able to. She blacked out, and when she woke up, Winverna was asleep at her beside in a hospital while her fathers were being briefed on her condition and new attachments. Sure enough, she’d lost her right shoulder and the most part of the right of her torso. She’s never been too bothered by the robotics though.
She has known Winvera since they were young and met via one of James’ briefing with Winter and Endor. They trained together, played together, were practically each other’s first friends. Everything about the lovely Schnee princess made Alutori fall head over heels for her.
Since the incident with the Beowolves, Alutori has a well-hidden yet passionate hatred for hunting them and refuses to allow any human recruits to go after them.
Alutori is already a Lieutenant General in the Atlas military. Being the daughter of the General meant she technically already had the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, but she worked the rest of her way up. She very much hopes to be General and Atlas Headmaster at some point.
Being fourteen years older than Jade and sixteen years older than Darnarian, Alutori was basically a fourth parent rather than a sister.
She considers the Ace Naxas her little siblings (spare Jade who is her sister).
She likes to think that she played a significant part in helping Clover and Jade join her family and get together with her dads. Since she was already very close to Clover with a friendship that no-one really understood, she had very little trouble accustoming to having him and Jade in her home all the time and calling him “Dad” too.
Alutori loves her wife more than life itself and keeps living for her.
Darnarian Branwen-Ebi (Ironwood formally but rarely, Branwen in public and informally, Ebi in public and on missions) (Based on Feirefiz of the Round Table)
Name Inspiration: ‘Darn arian’ means coin in Welsh
Nickname(s): ‘Ari’ by anyone, ‘Dare’ by Alutori and Veloheria, ‘Rye’ by Clover
Iolite-isms: Second Bird, Liar Liar, Pure Psychopathy, Crow, Chicklet
Languages: Atlesian, Valean, Mantlan
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Aura Colour: Black
Schools and Team: Eiskappe Academy (combat school), Atlas Academy (Academy)/Future Member of Team PRDT (Peridot)
Bestie Better Than The Restie: None
Homeplace: Atlas
Orientation: Homosexual Homoromantic
Semblance: Watch Your Tongue, a constantly active Semblance that alternates Darnarian’s opponent’s luck in accordance with how much they lie in his presence. This gives Darnarian himself an edge in battle so long as he himself doesn’t lie. However, if he does lie himself, he’ll get a stomach ache and migranes until he refutes the lie and tells the truth; as such, he’s a very honest person, perhaps too much.
Weapon: None yet.

Trivia:
Darnarian’s earliest memory is his older sister Alutori teaching him how to curse, which ended up exactly how she wanted in the long run. He’s a prolific swearer and doesn’t go a sentence without a curse.
Semblance developing at age six, he very quickly learned that for anyone around him, lying would be a literal bad omen and thus he uses this as a blackmailing system.
He is petrified of the dark.
If he left his hair to grow out a bit more, his hair would fluff out a lot more, like a bird’s. It is exactly this reason that he keeps it reasonably short and tufted like his dad’s.
Clover is where Ari got his humour. He laughs quite a lot and would rather have people take compliments rather than deflect them, but that is limited to other people solely. He is insanely cynical when it comes to himself and takes jabs at his expense almost to the extent that Jade does.
Ari is a major sword and balde enthusiast. He has stolen Harbinger from Qrow multiple times just to practice or admire it, and Alutori has trained him personally in bladed combat. It was somewhat regrettable when he accidentally stabbed her in the back when he was 9.
He’s extrodinarily friendly and is friends with a lot of kids over in Mantle.
Due to the lie detector aspect of his Semblance, his eyes change from teal to red if someone lies around him. While with this change, he is likened to be a minature clone of Qrow.
