Name: Anya Roscoe
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Standing at a total height of five feet, five inches, Anya manages to be rather imposing in person despite her rather average size, doll-like appearance, and calm, cool demeanor. Her skin is pale and soft, almost as though finely crafted from porcelain, and her figure is thin, with long, lean limbs, a slender, smoothly curving body, and a very limber, compact, and yet imperceptibly powerful build despite her narrow shoulders and form. Perhaps some of her authoritative presence comes from her face, then, which, despite its rounded shape and silken texture, with a petite nose, chin, and ears, and rosy red lips with shimmering white teeth, has in its most prominent place a pair of emerald green eyes that seem to burn with the inner fire of twin suns, piercing forward like the blades the use of which has calloused her delicate hands. Or, perhaps this presence stems from the flowing mane of straight, silken hair, raven black in hue, that flows out behind her like a storm cloud, yet also frames her countenance, further bringing out the brilliant green of her eyes through contrast with the white of her skin and the dark shadow of her waist-length tresses.
Anya is generally seen in a rather businesslike attire, consisting of a pinstriped white blouse tied with a blue-green tie, a button-up black blazer trimmed and lined in radiant white, a jet black skirt and tights, and simple black dress shoes. When in combat, her blazer is replaced by a duster of black leather which reaches down to her ankles and provides some level of protection against attacks whilst not hindering her movement, mobility being the reasoning behind her outfit in the first place.
Anya possesses one very important trinket: a silver-chained gold locket with a roughly spherical emerald at its center, inside of which is a small photograph of a young Anya, and her parents. This is an object she would die to keep from falling into anyone else's hands, and one that holds immeasurable emotional value to her. However, as her parents are generally a sore spot for her, she usually keeps the locket concealed against her own person, slipped beneath her blouse. The very fact that one might know about this locket and its contents is generally a sign that she trusts that person very much.
On a final note, when not fighting, Anya is generally seen wearing a pair of small, red-rimmed spectacles, as pictured below - generally for reading purposes.
Weapon Type: Lunar AND Solar Blades
Weapon: Anya is one of the very few individuals to manifest an exception to the general rules of single weaponry and deity alignment. Perhaps because of her eternal desire to achieve perfection and to overcome all limits imposed upon her fighting ability - viewing them as her own personal weakness - when the time came for her to weapon to appear, many people were shocked to find that she was capable of summoning not just one blade, but a pair of matching swords, one aligned to the moon deity Zwei and one to the sun goddess Sol, the one possessing a blade made of purest light condensed into steel, and the other created of blackest darkness crisscrossed with a crimson grid-like structure. These blades are both marked with the symbol of Ying and Yang, and each bear individual names by which they can be summoned, although they can also be formed in a weaker, but more compact form by simply calling them forth without calling their names. This simplified summoning makes them easier to wield, allowing Anya to summon and use them for extended periods of time, but also reduces their cutting power, making them somewhat less effective against stronger opponents, and causes them to break at times during battle, forcing her to re-summon them. However, by calling their names - The white blade Amaterasu, and the black sword known as Tsukuyomi - Anya can create much larger versions of the two swords - known as Type-TRUE - each covered with feather-like serrations so as to appear like a pair of angelic and demonic wings. These blades are surprisingly just as fast as their more compact forms - which is to say, astonishingly so - but are also much harder to break and capable of dealing much more damage with each swing. However, simply creating both Type-TRUE blades is enough to nearly exhaust Anya at this point, making them rather impractical to use in combat save as a guaranteed-kill finishing move. However, given time and practice, it is possible that Anya might one day be able to use both weapons in this state for a decent duration in battle.
On a final note, the twin blades in either form fly and spin incredibly fast when thrown, and always seem to arc back around like boomerangs into their wielder's hands.
The two blades are pictured below, in their basic forms on the right, and in their Type-TRUE forms on the left.
Partner: To be determined.
Personality: Anya is a rather cold individual, detesting weakness in other beings, but also looking down with disgust upon those who take advantage of the same weakness she hates. She also has a very high respect for ties of blood, and thus is similarly enraged by those who treat the relatives they should cherish and protect with hatred and derision. She's very single-minded, striving always to accomplish the tasks she is assigned in as efficient and complete manner as possible. This ranges from her studies to combat, as in the former she generally acts the role of model students and in the latter she fights with a furious devotion and surprising skill. But, on the other hand, she's the sort of person who doesn't have very much in the way of social skills, and who sacrifices most elements of a normal, balanced life to study and practice her skills with her swords. While most people admire her talent, she also has few, if any, friends, and feels somewhat bitter due to the emptiness her life leaves, feeling obligated to continue improving herself and concealing her envy for those who don't share her fanatical perfectionism through a misguided sense of pride, deceiving herself as best she can and denying any desire for a normal life even though it's the thing she's desperately in need of. In the same vein, she finds it rather embarrassing to help other people if she can help it, since people make assumptions which in turn damage her pride, causing her to adopt a somewhat Tsundere approach, with excuses like "I was just passing through," and "I'm only doing this because you need it," being quite common in such situations. Still, if she could just realize how she really feels, she might actually turn out to be a nice person. But, that's a pretty big if.
Favorite activities/Classes: Combat, information on the Shari... generally anything that increases her overall lethality.
Likes: Excelling in things she puts her mind to, fighting, strength and strong-willed individuals, and reading books.
Dislikes: Not being able to accomplish something, procrastination, people - including herself - who attempt things without giving them their utmost effort, people who rely entirely on others, people who oppress the weak, and her own cooking, which is rather lackluster to say the least.
Fears/Phobias: Fear of weakness, fear of failure, fear of losing her vaunted pride, and an intense antipathy to being touched.
Background: Anya was born to a rather famous Knight Field Marshal named Alexander Roscoe, and his apprentice Alicia Roscoe, the two of whom were, at one time, some of the most skilled Knights in the order, with combined Shari kills that ranked perhaps in the hundreds. Despite this, however, during an excursion in an early time in Anya's youth, the two were taken by surprise by an ambush set by powerful Shari, and Alicia, gravely wounded, fled with Anya while Alexander fought to the last, dying along with all of those enemies that slew him. Alicia managed to hide Anya, but was then found by the remaining demons, who she lured away before finally being overwhelmed by her enemies and dying as well. The two sacrificed themselves to save Anya, and worse yet, she, as a young girl, was forced to watch. From this point on, even after she was rescued and taken in the by Knights, Anya rarely spoke to anyone, shutting herself up alone for days at a time to train in swordsmanship and to study countless books. From that day forward, she was consumed entirely by one desire. Her parents, who she had thought to be invincible in their strength, had been overcome in the end, and had died to protect her, who was too weak to protect herself. So, she resolved, she would become a person strong enough to protect herself, no matter what the odds she faced might be. Perhaps it was a fear of death, or the guilt of surviving where the rest of her family died, but either way, she was compelled by the singular desire to become stronger, and stronger, and stronger. By the time she reached the academy, her grades were astonishingly high, and her swordsmanship unparalleled amongst the first years. And, when the time came for her to manifest her weapon, she became even more of a renowned prodigy through her unique twin blades. Graduating straight to third year level after only a year of study, Anya is well known amongst the academy students as an apparent genius. But, on the other hand, she's also infamous as an arrogant nuisance, and most people rather dislike her due to her rampant perfectionism, even if they claim to in some way hold admiration for her talents. This caused Anya to further isolate herself, to the point where, despite her promising status as a candidate for Knighthood, almost nobody would ever willingly partner up with her, and she would honestly prefer to go it alone instead of risking the life of another when she could take on all that risk herself. Due to her paranoia, antisocial nature, and rather proud personality, she's a generally disagreeable possible ally in the eyes of most despite her unique skills, so even at this point, she still has no combat partner, a fact which has made her somewhat of a laughingstock amongst the upperclassmen.
