Angelina “Angie” Arkwright

**Codename:** Angie

**Age:** 17

## **Powers**

•The ability to control blood either outside or inside the body. There are sub categories for this element if the user is able to get there.

* Blood marionette- The user can manipulate the movements of their opponents through the blood that flows in their body. This can only affect organisms that have some kind of fluid in their body that can count as blood. This is not limited to only humans. The more skill and control the user has over their element, the more body parts they can control in battle and the duration becomes longer.
* Transfiguration/manipulation: The user can use blood from open wounds (either from themselves or from others) or from other sources and turn them into weapons. Angie mainly uses a whip like structure since it requires the least amount of energy for this move. If there are mass quantities of blood, a person of extreme high skill can turn them into denser objects like knives or blood shards.
* Healing: It is possible for the user to heal others’ wounds when needed. So far, Angie has managed to fully heal cuts and partially heal deep ones. Though, if she used this skill on herself, it would work half as effectively than on others.

### Restrictions

* The distance and blood mass along with the user’s skills will affect how well the attacks can work.
* Currently, Angie can only manipulate blood from existing sources. She can not generate mass quantities of blood from thin air at the moment.
* Although it is stated that the user can manipulate anything that is counted as blood, Angie’s power is most effective with human blood since it’s her own species.
* An overuse of their power can lead to the user going into an anemic-like state. They will also start tearing up and cough out blood. The user will also experience falling in

## **Personality**

On the outside, Angie seems to be more reserved and kept to herself. But when she starts to make friends, she’ll tend to open up and become more lively. She’s more expressive through text than actual speaking though. She’s really happy if someone has the same interests as her but it’s either she keeps quiet about it or excessively talks. Angie also tends to over the top with trying to do her best. Though, those attempts can prove to be futile if expectations weren’t met.

It sounds like she’s really annoying but I swear she isn’t always like this! There are times where she acts a lot older than her age to where she’s mistaken for an adult. We all can thank her mother for making her act mature in front of guests a lot.

## **Backstory**

**TW: I did mention emotional manipulation or something on the lines of abuse**

Angelina, or Angie for short, was born to William Arkwright and Maria Evans. They were one of the wealthy families that resided in a town outside of Ninjago City. Her being an only child made her the target of extreme expectations from her mother. Her father didn’t really mind much as long as she’s passing in her studies. This resulted in her becoming an overachiever and will not take defeat lightly. Sadly, she’s more likely to beat herself over it than yelling at the one she lost to.

Around when she was 7, Angie discovered her powers. One of her maids was about to run right into her when she shut her eyes and braces for impact. She didn’t feel any collision whatsoever and opened her eyes to see the maid unable to move. Angie quickly dropped her hands in alarm as the other servants rushed to their aid, already seeing the interaction. At first, they believed she had the element of manipulation. But as time went on, they realized she had the element of blood since she was controlling blood droplets and creating small red shards.

Her father was relieved that she obtained his powers and began to train her. He taught her how to control them and eventually the moves he knew. Though, most of these moves were just used in fights like a lot of the other elements. He did, however, let Angie know how to use fans in battle. He was confused why she didn’t go with blades or needles but didn’t question further. At least they respected each other.

Her mother, however, had different intentions. Seeing Angie’s newfound talent opened more possibilities to gloat about her daughter and gain fame for herself. At first, the attention given to her daughter was possible in where she would cuddle her and call Angie her “baby” and “diamond.” Angie didn’t mind but was uncomfortable with this newfound attention. Of course we aren’t going to give happy moments freely. No no no we aren’t since every single sona has some kind of trauma here. Angie’s mother took Angie’s trust in her and began her reign over her. She started to push extreme expectations onto her outside her studies. From the people she got to interact with her clothes to her outside personality, she got to control a lot of it. It’s like a girl getting free will over her doll.

For the 5 years of her life, Angie was her mother’s puppet to toy with. She was getting tired of not being able to have as much freedom as she had before gaining her powers. So, she decided it was time to get her life back. On the days her mother was out of the house, Angie would do things her way. That’s where she picked up on things such as drawing and sewing. It was like comfort activities for her. Angie would also try interacting with people through the internet or on her trips outside the town.

*Routes split here. It’s probably weird that I want to do both routes.*

***Association Route:***

Angie eventually found out about the association on one of her little trips. She kept literally bumping in their members causing her to use her powers as her defense mechanism at each instance. She’ll apologize after and move on her way. One day when she was returning home, she was approached by one of the people she had her little incidents with. They gave her an opportunity to join their group called the “Association.” Wanting a life out of her mother’s grasp, Angie agreed on their offer. She left behind her life of luxury and suffering for a life of freedom and excitement and never regretted it ever since.

Her father knew Angie would eventually leave her family so he didn’t try to stop her. Her mother had a fit over this though but didn’t have enough time to stop her.

***Ninja Route:***

Angie would visit shops on her out of town trips. One of the places was actually Mistaké’s tea shop which is where she met Wu. She realized that he was one of the people who would almost always show up with the ninja. Angie was curious about the ninja’s exciting lives and wanted to know more. The two would chat for a bit whenever she visited the shop. Although her original intention was to know the ninja, she was interested in Wu’s life and the others as well. Eventually, Wu offered her the opportunity to join the ninja and their quests to save Ninjago. Although there was no destiny saying that they needed the blood element, he saw the passion Angie held and saw the uses of having another elemental on the team. Angie, who was already being invested, said yes to his offer. From there, a new journey began for her.

**Occupation:** Hero

## **Trivia**

* Angie uses fans as a weapon. But most of the time, she’ll just use her powers.
* She learned how to heal others when she settled into the association/ninja team. That’s why that skill isn't as strong as it should be.
	+ She carries a first aid kit as a result of that.
* Ninja Route: Her fighting outfit has a pinkish hue with silver trim so it isn’t confused with Kai’s gi. (But at the same time, they can pretend to be each other on night missions)
* Angie added tassels to the ends of her fans so she doesn’t mistake them for a normal pair.
* She had a fascination with the ninja when she heard they fought Lord Garmadon and the skeleton army (so like around the pilot).
* Angie has a high pain tolerance from the constant pricking herself to make blood whips.
* The symbol on her outfit was meant to represent her blood element.
