Aria

== Aria, Princess of the Blade ==
Aria is the ruler of Halberd, the militaristic city-state run by strength and combat prowess. A Princess in name only, she is the cities tactical genius and master swordsman, revered across Atheria for her ruthless nature and lack of inhibitions, doing as she pleases and often earning a malicious reputation. She wields the black blade "Ivory" with unmatched skill and has been known to fight impossible battles, even once taking on an invasion force of well over 500 men alone and walking away with minor scratches and cuts, leaving no survivors. If her trust is earned, she is loyal, enthusiastic, and even sometimes intimate with those she believe are worthy. In combat, Aria is no slouch, and is widely regarded as a force to be reckoned with, it is wise never to challenge her alone.
== Her equipment ==
Aria wields the black blade "Ivory", a magic blade that is capable of draining the light in a small area around Aria, allowing her to create a dueling ground of shadows. Alternatively, Aria can channel energy into Ivory's blade and unleash it in a powerful strike that compresses the air around the blade, creating a razor sharp shock-wave of air. This powerful strike once felled nearly a hundred people in one strike, though the recoil does take its toll, and if Aria is not careful she can tear muscles and shatter bones with the strike, leaving her weakened.
As well as wielding Ivory, Aria wears the Blood Kiss armor. While revealing, the blood red and black armor holds magical properties that protects Aria from a wide array of magics. If blood is spilled onto the armor, it will absorb the crimson liquid and retroactively heal most wounds aria sustains up to a limit. The barrier that protects Aria from magic is limited, and if it breaks the armor can recreate the shield, but this process is slow and during that time she bears no resistances to magic.
Finally, Aria wears the Crest of Blood around her neck. This magical artifact was locked in Halberd's vault until it was uncovered by Aria, and has since been a boon to her. The crest enhances Aria's natural senses, allowing her to see in absolute darkness or hear the faintest whispers. The price is steep to use the gem, however, as she can no longer age and, as such, forfeited her life to maintain the gem. While the gem is nearly unbreakable, its not indestructible by any means, and if it should ever break Aria's life will end almost instantly.
