Ok here is my second SU. Again sorry this took so long
Name: Renee Shostoni
Age: 18
School: Unbound Thought
Element(s): Metal (primary) Earth (Secondary) Lightning (tertiary) Fire (Quaternary)
Fighting Style (Weapons, "Signature" Attacks): Renee is a swordsman of unparalleled prowess, wiping out foes quickly and effortlessly with her swift and precise strikes, and has even been know to wield two swords at once. She has even begun to wield other weapons, just to make fights interesting. Be it spears, axes, staves, or even clubs, if you can duel with it she's used it. While she doesn't carry her ever growing arsenal on herself, her twin swords, Stella and Voldan, are made from a special metal that becomes easily malleable when metal magic is channeled into them, allowing Renee to change their form at any time to suit her needs. While she can wield a large amount of aether, she never had the skill or patience to practice true magic, and thus channels it into her weapons to enhance them. She can make her sword glow hot with fire magic to cut through most other substances like a hot knife through butter, or charge it with lightning to increase the speed of her strikes or shock foes on contact. She can also strengthen the integrity of the sword itself with her metal magic, causing it to well outlast most other weapons, or she can reverse it to make enemies weapons more brittle. The nature of these enhancement spells makes them cost smaller amounts of aether to maintain then most spells, this coupled with her large energy reserves means she can often outlast most attacks and still have plenty left to begin her own assault. However, her lack of any real magic means her ranged power is limited to throwing weapons and small lightning strikes. While she can raise a small earth or lightning shield, they don't last long. She is able to cut spells in two with her blade, deflecting some attacks, but powerful ones, or explosive fire or lightning attacks will not be affected by this technique and simply blow up in her face. Similarly, if attacked from behind or caught of guard, there is little she can do other then defend herself with her weapons, which she can use to her advantage if not dispatched quickly enough. Her extreme focus often causes her to fail to notice traps until she's already in them.
Appearance (Pictures Allowed):
she's around 5'8" with long red hair, usually tied in a ponytail, and fiery red eyes.
Personality (At least one paragraph): Very unlike most her peers in the school of Unbound Thought, Renee is often calm, cool, and calculating, often preferring to size up a situation before getting herself involved. While most mages at her school are testing the limits of their physical capabilities or how big and destructive a spell they can make, Renee is perfecting her technique, in both sword craft and sword play. In battle however, she's a completely different person. Over confident in her abilities, she often rushes straight into the fray without a second thought. She lives for the rush of battle, and always longs to find an opponent who can match her with a blade. She's always ready for a challenge and will never back down from a fight, especially when her or her father's work is brought into question.
History (At least two paragraphs): With a renowned blacksmith as a father and a notorious duelist as a mother, Renee's family was unique, to say the least. She was but ten years old when she started assisting her father with his work, watching him mix earth and fire magic to forge the strongest and most durable blades. The more she worked with him, the more fascinated in blade-craft she became. She felt a deep connection to the metal, as though each contained hidden potential that could be brought out thought the art of forging. She would often watch her mom train as well, equally fascinated by the advanced strikes and slashes she'd preform as she practiced for the next duel. Her mother taught her the technique of using lightning magic to improve the speed and swiftness of a strike. Soon they began training together, Renee's skill improving each day.
Then came the faithful day, when she participated in her first duel. She was 15 at the time, and was helping her father tend the shop when a old customer came in, complaining about a faulty blade. The man stated that the blade was too brittle, and pointed out a place where it had already been chipped. While her father was willing to make reprimands for the faulty sword, Renee stood up for him, stating that her father would never have made a blade that wouldn't last one battle, and accused him of using it improperly. This enraged the man, who immediately challenged the young girl calling him out to a duel, as was customary. Renee accepted, despite the protests of her parents, and choose to use the faulty sword the man had brought in as her weapon of choice.
As they prepared to fight, Renee remembered all her parents had taught her, and poured a good amount of earth, lightning, and fire magic into the sword. They clashed and the sword the man expected to break not only held strong, but cut clean through his own blade. Astonished, the man wasn't prepared as Renee followed with a devastating combination of slashes and stabs. As Renee's assault ended the terrified man turned and fled, covered in cuts and bruises. Renee's prowess with a blade spread throughout the town and eventually reached the ears of the grandmaster of the nearby school, who immediately requested that she join.
Renee accepted the invitation with open arms, excited to bring her father's blades and mother's technique to the school. 3 years passed, and although Renee more often takes lessons from her mother then her teachers, her skill with a blade remains unmatched. Now with the tournament just around the corner, she eagerly awaits opening ceremonies, not only to prove herself as the best swordsman in the world, but also to spread the word far and wide of her father's craft, a legacy she hopes to continue.
