Name:
THEODORA -Jigsaw Planners-
Crystal Castle Choir (NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams)
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Specie: Dream angel (Alnimbus)
Physical Description: Seems to be a human lady, but her head is that of a white teddy bear, and her forearms are white-furred and have four-digit paws each. Another notable feature is the crystalline white wings floating behind her back. Her attire consists of a white/brown tank top, an umber bra, a white/sepia skirt with a belt (its buckle shaped like a teddy bear head), and white/brown boots.
Personality: Compassionate and a little timid, but always willing to help out. She has no hate for her enemies, just pity. Not very good at talking back, but good at assuring peace. Surprisingly, she's a great chef, knowing how to handle just about any recipe without fail.
History: A cleric of the Alnimbus tribe of dream angels. The battalion she was protecting was slain by the Malnoirs (nightmare monsters), leaving her defenseless against the horde until Jigsaw came to her rescue. She has since tagged along with him, seeking to reunite the three dream angel tribes and end the savage nightmare. Her head looks suspiciously like that of the teddy bear that Saffron brought for Jigsaw to sleep with...
Equipment: Wields a Patch Hammer. While it may not be the strongest weapon in the dream world, it's still fairly effective. It contains a strong dreamshard in the head, acting as the crux of her oneirites.
Abilities: Mainly possesses supportive oneirites, like for healing.
Other: Despite being a skilled mage, she herself is more vulnerable to magic damage than the other dream angels, mainly curses.
