Mostly in the arm region it is most noticeable. That aside she remains mostly average with a slight tan to her skin. Vera’s hair reaches just below her jawline and is pink colored. Her hair frames her face with one tuff sticking up on the top right side of her head. Under her bangs rest her green eyes that look to be on the more muted side of the color spectrum. Aside from her face her body lacks anything worth noting except for her C cup breast and that she sports two straight scars on the center of her palms. When it comes to clothing Vera isn’t too picky about what she’ll wear. Her preference leans towards t-shirts and skirts. On most occasions she sticks to wearing the school uniform but will switch it up depending on the situation. Tops she will normally wear are t-shirts to tank tops with the occasional jacket over top. Pants are practically out of her wardrobe and replaced entirely with shirts with various questionable lengths. Footwear ranges from sneakers to boots and always over stockings. Even on occasion she may be seen with the odd hair clip in her hair. PERSONALITY Vera comes off as rather sociable and friendly if not the most outgoing. She has no problem talking to people regardless of is she knows them or not. Upon meeting a new person she will try to leave a good impression and help in any way she can. Because of her eagerness to try and be accepted Vera does come off as loud and a tad on the annoying side. Vera is a tad overeager to make friends and have people like her for the fear that she will be disposed of if she isn’t of any use. In general Vera has a straight forward personality and isn’t afraid to speak or act on what she wants. So if something bothers her she will act on confronting it. This also makes her seem rather flirty because if she likes someone she has a tendency to make her intentions pretty clear. Not that Vera is completely blunt about everything but she isn’t the most subtle either. Equally on the spectrum if someone bothers her she will confront them even if it has the potential to escalate to physical violence. Vera isn’t above punching someone if they make her mad enough or give her enough reason to. When not trying to make an impression on others or with those she knows Vera doesn’t change too much from how she is normally. While in groups of people she has met Vera will try less to make them like her and just become an average person in the crowd who will chime in when needed. Around friends Vera opens up more and will drop her usual permaconfidence and show weakness or insecurity. Of course around friends she also tends to get closer and more blunt about things as well as violating any concept of personal space they may have. EXTRAS Likes: + Bladed weapons + Sparing + Movies + Animals + Bright days Dislikes: - The dark - Ranged weapons - Forest - Being ignored - Being hated Talents: + Multilingual + Sword fighting + Piano COMBAT Strengths: + Agile + Good stamina + Quick reflexes Weaknesses: - Low endurance - Low pain tolerance - Not terribly strong Power Strengths: + Can create up to a 2’ katana blade + Blades can last 12 hours + Can make 5 blades a day + Blades can be thrown Power Weaknesses: - Blades can only emerge from her palms - Can only make certain types of blades (knife blade, katana blade, rapier blade) - Blades can be broken - After use becomes fatigued and dizzy Power: Vera’s power is that of blade creation. Through the use of innate magic ability she can manipulate the iron in her body and transforming it into an iron blade of some kind. This is simply a blade and no other aspect of a weapon and not the entire weapon itself. Also because of Vera using the iron in her body the creation of the blade causes her to enter a state or iron deficiency and need to eat iron rich foods afterwards to stabilize her body. HISTORY Vera Meier was born to her parents on August 20th in Dresden, Germany. Her birth was not one that lacked a purpose and her parents fully intended to make sure she fulfilled it. Both of Vera’s parents were devoted members or a particular cult and her birth was meant to further their purpose. Conceived during one of the cult’s rituals Vera was born with a high potential for magic and was meant to use that magic to release the lord of the cult onto the mortal plane. Vera grew up being reminded of this fact even though she failed to realize her potential. Years passed and still Vera had shown no signs of being able to use magic. Growing impatient the leader of the cult proposed another ritual with Vera as the sacrifice to give the next child even greater potential to be their chosen one. So devoted to the cult her parents offered up Vera to the cultist leader without hesitation and she was taken away as they prepared for the ritual. Being five and defenseless the cult leader attempted to take advantage of her before she was sacrificed for the ritual. Even at a young age she recognized the danger and activated her power. A jagged and crude blade formed from her palm and sliced the cult leader across the face. He was injured and developed a scar over his eye because of it, but the act allowed Vera to live. Still upset he allowed her two more years to prepare to summon their lord by mastering her magic. Vera tried her best but with no way to learn other than self-training she could only improve so much in a two year frame. She managed to learn how to create a five inch knifelike blade in that time but that was nowhere near close to what they needed. Lacking the size or magic they needed her blade was useless to the cult and she would be punished if she attempted to try to release the lord with it. Knowing this the seven year old ran away the day before the ritual in search of help of some kind. Vera was far from stupid and ran to the police as soon as she could. Leading them to the cult many members were arrested including her parents and the leader. Free from the cult Vera was out of a home and had to be placed into an orphanage as no family members could be contacted to take her. Her time was short and a year later Vera found a new home with a moderately wealthy family that had heard of her previous situation. It took her about half a year to adjust to living in an actual family setting but once she got the hang of it life fell into place. Now that she was attending actual school and acting like a normal girl Vera began to stop caring about her past with the cult. After she turned nine her new family brought up her ability and Vera hesitantly showed them. At first they were shocked that it was true but they quickly accepted it and wanted to help her understand it. Not really able to ask for help training your adopted daughter’s magical blade making they did what they could. It didn’t take long for them to understand the basis for how it worked and after that the training became easier. Creating the blades was beginning to tire Vera less and she could take actions afterwards to feel better and less exhausted. With practice her blades could even be larger than little knife blades. Vera came to terms with her ability after that and began to enjoy using it. She and her new family began to travel after she turned ten and on each trip they made sure to stop at a museum or some other relevant place so she could look at other bladed weapons and try to figure them out. It was safe to say that she was one of the few ten year old girls that had a collection of swords and other weaponry that she was allowed free access to. Having models at hand made creating them easier. At eleven Vera began to learn sword fighting at the request of her parents. She took a bit of time to break into each style but after getting the hang of it she caught on to the basics quick. Not sticking with any one style she moved from fencing to kendo and onward, all the while training her magic as well to be able to create the weapons she was wielding. Vera had a busy life to say the least as she was still enrolled in school and had all the work of that to deal with. Things slowed down after that with no vast changes just gradual development. Vera lived a normal life for the most part aside from her training and grew accordingly. Going through school she had her fair deal of struggling classes as well as failed relationships but nothing of great importance. Her power became easier to control and she grew better and better at fighting with different styles of swordsmanship. She always tried to stay on peoples good sides due to her experience in the past. Even if it was ages ago she never grew out of that fear of being disposed of if she wasn’t of use. After turning eighteen her parents informed her about the school for empowered and asked if she wanted to attend. It was a difficult choice as she would have to leave her home but it was her best chance at learning more about her power and getting even better at using it. After a few hours of thinking it over she decided it would be best to go to the school. Hoping to learn how to make better use of her power Vera got ready to leave for Italy and begin attending the Alinari Academy for the Empowered MISCELLANEOUS Alias: Dion Other Characters: Vincent Quinn Faceclaim: SOUL EATER, Kim Diehl; vera meier |
