[RWBY OC] Artair: reference sheet by AdventuringArtist on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

(Note: current version of my previously made King Arthur RWBY oc)

Bio: WIP (will add deeper details when full team is designed to avoid even more rewrites)

~Basic updated info for now until I finish the team:

-First name: Artair (color rule requirement: means bear/rock [why the browns/blacks/grays are the main colors]. Name is a variation of Arthur)

-Last name: WIP (might just go with Pendragon as a placeholder for right now if I can't make anything up that works)

-Age: 21 (20 during rwby volume 1)

Height: 5'11"

-Eye/semblance color: Gold (its sort of a dark orange or brown/yellow mix instead of a pure yellow shade)

-Team: currently plan on it being AMST (Amethyst) but names for the other three names may change

-Affiliations: Vale, Beacon

-Occupation: full time Vale Huntsman as of volume 5. (4th year student during volume 1)

-Weapon: EX-Caliburn (scabbard name [EX] sword name [Caliburn] ). EX-Caliburn is a custom longsword and scabbard that was made by Artair about a year before training to be a huntsman. Dust crystals can be added to the cross guard to give the blade temporary elemental attacks. The scabbard can hold dust or aura charges if needed but the sword needs to be sheathed to transfer them. No weapon transformations here but his semblance gives him some range attacks to make up for the lack of a gun.
I hope the sword's inspiration doesn't need to be said but the scabbard in the stories was said to be able to heal whoever wore it so I wanted to implement that somehow without being to overpowered while still making sense.

-Semblance: Energized Aura. Can use his aura to energize objects like weapons to increase damage and adds mid-range attacks. Artair crafted his sword to use less of his aura to charge up to a damage-dealing level then he could with normal weapons. This is because the more aura he can put into an object the stronger it gets, however that obviously puts him at greater risk of having a decreased aura reserve until the aura charge is stopped and the aura starts to fully regenerate.
The ability is based off of the sword giving off a "blinding light" in the stories. Best example to compare to the ranged attacks would be the skyward strikes/sword beams from the Zelda series.
