### Attire

Rosi’s attire consists of a Light rose-pink coloured crop top with short sleeves that are frilled and off the shoulder. The short has a bodice like front lace that is tied at the bottom. On her lower half, Rosi wears a pair of light blue capri jeans with black chap-like covers attached to her belt with silver rings. These covers also have extra padding on her knees. On her feet, Rosi wears a pair of slightly heeled black sandals with cork-brown soles.

### Post Time Skip Attire - Medic

After the fall of beacon, Rosi and her team alongside team OPRA are enlisted in the Illyrian army and are given new outfits*.* This new outfit has Rosi wearing a rose red button up shirt tucked into a pair of blue jeans, which are then in turn tucked into a pair of white and brown knee high white and brown boots. On her arms, she wears armoured gauntlets and around her waist, a belt that has a sheath for her sword. On her right arm, Rosi wears a band with a red cross symbol, indicating her status as medically-trained.

## Personality

Rosi is a young woman who always puts others needs before her own and is willing to do whatever it takes to help people, leading her to be a perfect fit for the huntress role. Rosi is a friendly young woman who always has a smile on her face and a friendly greeting to all. Her desire to help others has stemed from seeing others ignore the pleas for help after disaster. Yet because of that there is also an anger that Rosi has against the world for how it treats faunus. But instead of that warping her, she uses it as a means to fuel her desire to be that change. If they're not going to do it, then *she* will.

In addition to this, Rosi also believes that issues aren't just black and white, but instead more complex that what they initially appear. In regards to the White Fang specifically, Rosi can understand why other Faunus would join as if it was the only option left, but she herself cannot see herself in the ranks of what it is now. Rosi's desire to help others also forces her to put the needs of others before her own, often leading her to neglect herself in favour of the happiness of others.

After the fall of beacon at the hands of the white fang and the grimm, Rosi begins to become more fearful of the treatment of other faunus including herself within Remnant as well as begin to disconnect from her team because of the fact she could barely help during a disaster that reminded her all to much of the one from her past. Despite her anamousity towards members of the white fang such as Lyall Merrick, Rosi still aims to help the other faunus in the refugee camp, further proving that she is willing to help people despite their differences, because to her, nobody is above help.

## Background

Born on the island of Menagerie, Rosi Aime led a very normal life as a young faunus girl could. She had two loving parents, a roof under her head and friends to play with. The land of Menagerie, while isolated from the rest of Remnant, provided enough for Rosi as a little girl. However, everything changed for Rosi at the age of 8, when a disastrous tropical storm separated her from her parents forever. Lost and holding onto dear life, Rosi was devastated. No matter where she looked, she couldn’t find her parents as the water and wind tore Kuo Kuana apart. All seemed lost until she was taken in by two tiger faunus, Lili and Caspian. Feeling pity for the poor child they adopted her as their daughter. While Rosi couldn’t have been more thankful for the two, she still had a great hole in her heart after the loss of her birth parents.

The devastating storm ravaged Menagerie. Seeing this inspired Rosi to help wherever she could. Taking on volunteer jobs, Rosi helped around the island, doing whatever she can to bring the land back to the way it was before being destroyed. As this continued, Rosi began to see the faunus of Menagerie become bitter and angry other the neglect that the rest of remnant treated them with. And, with the rise of the new, reformed, *radical* white fang, Rosi began to see dozens of Mengerie citizens leave to join the various chapters around Remnant. Despite this however, Rosi still felt she could do more, and, with the permission of Lili and Izar, she enrols at Pharos Academy to become a huntress.

During her time at Pharos, Rosi would develop skills to start her path to become a huntress. Even with the attitudes towards Faunus at Pharos being much more friendlier than other places in Remnant, Rosi began to see how the world views people like her, sometimes even facing targeted harassment. This made Rosi see the reason why the faunus from menagerie, her friends, even some relatives of Izar and Lili, would go and join the fang. For them, it's the only option to make the world *respect* them. However, Rosi quickly learned to surround herself with others who could at least make her feel a little more safe. This new world that Rosi stepped into was entirely different to the world she lived in at Menagerie, but despite that, Rosi made sure that she had a place in this world, whether people liked it or not. Rosi worked hard at Pharos. Creating her sword, named Erzulie, filled her with a sense of great pride as did unlocking her semblance at the age of 15. While a late comer by most standards, Rosi's semblance would prove extremely strong, allowing her to seemingly save lives if used correctly.

After graduating from Pharos, Rosi knew the next step was Haven Academy. Despite her parents worries for their daughter’s safety in a place like Mistral, Rosi insisted that she would enrol at Haven, knowing that she can defend herself with not only her words but also her ability in combat to fend others off. She knew that there were people in the world who needed her help, whether it be defence against the creatures of grimm or the forces of nature. Rosi will do what it takes to help and be the change that the world needs.

## Abilities and Powers

Rosi is the short ranged fighter and support medic of Team CRTN. Her skills as both a fighter and a medical expert prove vital in the field of combat. While being able to hold on her own, Rosi's skills as a medic allow her to treat the wounds of others appropriately and get them recovered and to safety or back into the fray in no time. Rosi has the largest pool of aura out of her team, allowing her greater stamina and endurance in combat that can even outlast the likes of Tanner. Erzulie's use of wind dust allows her to not only create distance between her and her opponents, but also as a means of closing distances or travelling them. In tighter situations, Rosi will use the fibre wire grappling hook of her sword to cross gaps and trip enemies up.

### Weakness

Rosi is limited by the lack of range in her weapon. While wind dust is useful, the way in which she applies it does not have any harmful effects to her opponents other than sweeping them away from her. Marksman-based combatants like snipers and archers can also put pressure on Rosi. While her semblance allows her to seemingly erase wounds and injuries, the drawback of it making her completely immobile and requires the upmost focus, leading to her having to use it wisely for the sake of her own safety and others.

### Weapon

Rosi’s weapon is called *Erzulie*. It is the *Tri Fan Grappling Sword (TFGS).* In its first form, It is a standard short sword made from a dark grey blade with black handle and a red leather grip around it. However, by pulling down a trigger, Rosi can shift the sword into a dust-fan form by having the blades fold out in half down the middle of the sharp side and form a bladed fan that supports wind dust. By using wind dust, Rosi can create strong gusts of wind that can blow enemies away which can allow her to create distance between her and her opponents. The pommel of Erzulie also has a grappling hook function. This is done by Rosi firing it out and using a strong fibre-wire to support her, cross distances and snag enemies up to trip them.

### Semblance

Rosi’s semblance is called *Bloom*. Bloom allows for Rosi to create aura-like roots from her body (mainly her hands). When attached to an injured individual whose aura is broken, Rosi will begin to heal the wounds of the individual by using her own aura. This can lead to Rosi completely healing someone of their injuries before their aura can regenerate and heal them. However while Bloom is a very powerful semblance, power often comes with drawbacks. For Rosi, the biggest draw back is that the level of aura will vary on the severity of the injury/injuries on the person she is healing. This can sometimes lead to a near or complete breakage of Rosi's aura, causing her to become weaker in battle. Another drawback is Rosi is rendered immobile as she must focus to use her semblance, leading her to become an easier target.

## Relationships

### Team CRTN

* Edwin Cobalt: Edwin and Rosi are the closest out of the entire team. Rosi values Edwin's kindness deeply, as well as being able to show some level of empathy and solidarity with him over the fact that he too lost his parents when he was younger. Often however, Rosi feels that his competitive spirit may get him into trouble. And while she does *appreciate* his concern for her safety and his desire to stand up for her, Rosi won't neglect to tell Edwin that she's the one who's going to speak for herself and not let a human talk over her. No matter what Remnant may throw at them, Rosi will endure it knowing that she has a friend like Edwin by her side.
* Tanner Ackerman: Maybe it's a faunus thing, but Rosi at first showed... a slight distaste in Tanner and the fact that he was from Atlas. His prejudice especially didn't help, But Rosi was well aware of the idea that Tanner's environment is possibly the reason behind his prejudice. Even if he boasts his military might and physical prowess, Rosi isn't afraid to put him in his place. She won't let Tanner think that she can be undermined as both a faunus and a fighter because in a world like Remnant, respect should come from both in and out of the battlefield.
* Conrad 'Birdie' Nigellus: Similarly to Edwin, while Rosi appreciates Birdie looking out for her, she isn't afraid to stop Birdie from becoming overprotective when she can handle herself. Despite that, Rosi was pleasantly surprised by how nice and friendly Birdie was as a person. Mantle as a reputation for its mistreatment of faunus citizens, but Rosi is glad to see that Birdie is a person who values equality and desires it as much as she does. But deep down she believes that if Birdie wants to see his goal of Remnant being a world of equality, then he'll need to take direct action rather than focus on his music doing it for him.

### Team OPRA

* Ophelia Demoiselle: Ophelia is one of Rosi's closest friends outside of her own team. She admires Ophelia's kindness and compassion and her persistence to keep fighting and training to become like her mother. After the Fall of Beacon and Rosi saving Ophelia from the clutches of death however, Rosi begins to seriously re-evaluate her relationship with Ophelia. Because of her near-death, Rosi begins to realise the power that she wields through her semblance and wonders what kind of relationship will become between her and Ophelia.
* Pierre Navarro: Rosi at first is a bit wary of Pierre. Like everyone else, while she sees him as a friendly, polite and approachable person, she can't help but feel that there's something more... *sinister* underneath. But Rosi knows not to pry on what could get her into trouble.
* Rhea La Roja: Rosi and Rhea remain on relatively friendly terms.
* Albert Régalien: Surprisingly unlike her relationship with Tanner, Rosi and Albert are also on friendly terms. She appreciates Albert's desire to learn about her issues as a faunus woman but feels that if he wants to truely be an ally to the faunus rights cause he needs to take more direct action. Even if it was something that he never saw, Rosi wants Albert to use his great strength to care and show compassion and extend it out.

### Others

* Caspian and Lili Aime: The loss of her parents had a great toll on Rosi, but because of Caspian and Lili's kindness she's able to continue on living for them. Rosi shows the upmost gratitude for the faunus couple for adopting her. Even if they share completely different traits, she has never felt like an 'other' within the family. Now as a young adult, Rosi hopes that she can pay them back somehow through her work but what Rosi doesn't know is that just being alive has been a good enough gift for them.
