Iris Odell

Iris Odell is a student from Atlas Academy and a member of Team ACAI. Her weapon of choice is Vorpalheart, a staff-cum-crossbow, and her team consists of Alani Sinoper, Conway Sallow and Aspen Alabaster.
== Appearance ==
Iris is a fair-skinned girl, several inches shorter than average height. She has light blonde hair, one strand of which she keeps tied over her left shoulder in a braid. She wears a white, collared blouse and a blue shawl and skirt. She also wears knee-high socks and brown-grey gloves and slip-on shoes.
== Personality ==
Iris was born to a fairly wealthy family in Atlas with one desire - to help those who need her. She shows a great deal of concern and care for others, perhaps valuing their safety, health and happiness over her own.
She acts as a mother of sorts to her team, making sure they are all eating, drinking, sleeping and communicating well. She lives to keep her team and friends healthy, even if her care-giving can become overbearing.
== Abilities and Powers ==
Despite her supportive role in a battle, Iris can easily hold her own when fighting with her staff/crossbow in close quarters combat. Many compare her attacks to a "gleeful dance".
=== Semblance ===
Inspired by the ‘Eat me, Drink me’ scene in Alice in Wonderland that caused the eponymous character to grow or shrink, Iris can resize the aura cloak around her body. This lets her either compress it into a small area of her body to compound its protection, or extend her aura outside of her body to reach further with her strikes.
=== Weaknesses ===
Iris is weak to large opponents who can break aura in only a few strikes. Her speed is a decent counter to this, and she often hangs back in a fight to support her team.
== Trivia ==
=== Allusion ===
* Iris alludes to Alice, from Alice in Wonderland. 
** Her semblance references Alice's size changing within her own story.
** Her surname, Odell, loosely rhymes with the surname of Alice's possible inspiration, Liddell.
=== Colour Naming Rule ===
*"Iris" means "rainbow" in Greek and references a blue flower.
* "Odell" means "Woad Hill", woad being a plant that yields blue dye.
