 Goal

An Excubitor Recruit who recently joined Bastion. She is outspoken and determined, using her ability to guard her allies against The Eldritch.

## Appearance

No matter where she is, Astrid strives to keep a smile on her face at all times. She is aware of the monsters they are facing, and has so resolved herself to be the support that is needed.

## Personality

* ESFP
* Upbeat and smiling 90% of the time.
* Enjoys socializing and getting to know other people.
	+ However, has a bad habit of only making shallow relationships.
* Outspoken for what she believes is right. Believes firmly in fighting the Evil: Eldritch.
	+ It's her way of coping with the unfair deaths of her parents. To avoid thinking about it, she throws herself into something to keep herself busy.
	+ It reminds her of the transience of life.

## History

Only child of a lower class family, she frequently helped her parents make ends meet. Life was often tough, but it was pleasant and the family had each other. She was relatively uneducated, but knew her way around the streets and how to avoid trouble. Occasionally, she could be found with things she couldn't have afforded. After the third time she was found wearing a coat that wasn't hers, her parents warned her that although they were poor, they would not be thieves.

Resolving to do the best with what she had, Astrid began to work jobs when she could to pay for the things she wanted while also supporting her family. Despite her best efforts, they were always struggling to survive.

Eventually, even fate turned away from them. While she was at one of her jobs, her parents were killed in a robbery attempt. She came home to find their bodies, and was still sitting on the floor when the police came half an hour later.

A week later, she quit her jobs and enlisted in the Army. She passed the screenings, and was recruited into Bastion.

## Ability

### la Rainure

* The ability to manipulate space and redirect the path of objects.
* She can specify an area where the "path of space" ceases to go straight and instead veers to the side.
* It is best used as a way to completely avoid attacks. They will curve sideways, missing her completely.
* While she is warping space, vision is also affected, as she is temporarily disturbing the line of sight in order to block an attack.
	+ However, she can make these distortions localized, making her virtually immune to attacks that travel straight forward.

## Relationships

* Reynard Dufort: She got along with him quite well during her time at the training camp. Although she never let herself grow close to him, she appreciated his efforts and responded well to his attempts to bond the recruits together.

## Trivia

* She has a fondness for cloudy days.
* She was killed by the Juvenile Eldritch Axiom in Post 6.

 Position
 Alignment
 Ability Type
 Goal

A loyal friend of Winoa Larocque, Vivianne is an Excubitor of the 5th Directorate in Bastion. Although generally quiet, she knows more than she lets on, and her friends respect her opinion - partially out of fear.

## Personality

ISTJ

Where Astrid is affable and Winoa straight-forward, Vivianne calmly guides the two in matters of tact. She is extremely aware of the world around her. Despite often declining to speak, Vivianne holds very strong opinions. If provoked or annoyed, she tends to step in and correct the fault with cool logic and a slightly biting tone. More than once, she has gotten into a fight with Winoa (although they always make up with the help of Astrid).

Vivianne holds a pragmatic mindset. As a result, she accepted the harsh training of Bastion more readily than the other two in order to improve herself (and so is technically the most adept at using her ability out of them). To her, life can be carefully planned out in order to prepare for the worst while also enjoying the best. On the few missions she has had so far, Vivianne often stands out above her peers as an efficient yet careful strategist.

## History

Vivianne's family never really had enough, but they did have each other. Life was a struggle each day, and her parents worked long shifts at day and night to care for her. However, they were happy together and managed to secure her a minor education. However, it wasn't enough for her to secure a well-paying job, and so she decided to join the military instead to help her parents pay for their living standards. Against their pleas, she was determined to help the ones who had given up so much for her.

Unwittingly, she was recruited into Bastion. Although the thought of fighting supernatural evil frightened her, the knowledge that her work was protecting and providing for those she loved motivated her to give the job her all.

## Ability

### la Prudence

She has the ability to summon conceptual swords from the sky that strike an opponent's shadow. If successful, the opponent's shadow is "pinned" and cannot move their body. The swords do not cause any physical harm, and simply pass through solid objects until they reach the ground. A successful pin will last 30 seconds against an average human being. She can generate multiple swords to linearly increase the duration and strength of the pin.

## Relationships

* Astrid Bayard and Winoa Larocque: Although they seem badly paired, she actually finds their company comfortable. They hold many qualities that she herself wishes she has, and despite their disagreements, Vivianne does truly see them as friends. She usually looks out for them, albeit quite often with exasperation.

Excubitors

Excubitors are a group of humans serving Bastion who have learned to use innate Abilities and thus dedicate themselves to fighting The Eldritch. They are a specialized armed force that work under night and secrecy. They remain secret so that the majority of people never have to meet nightmares from another world.

## Lifestyle

Excubitors join Bastion whenever they enlist. Typically, applicants for the armed forces who show latent potential and mental fortitude are thoroughly examined. If they pass the screenings and a final test, they are enlisted into Bastion as an Excubitor.

Due to the incredible mental stress an Eldritch exerts, as well as how Eldritch manipulate mental weakness, Excubitors undergo regular checkups to ensure that they are stable. In addition to this, they take regular breaks depending on their workload in order to destress and distract themselves from the reality of the Eldritch.

Excubitors generally live in specific areas of the city so as to not intermingle with civilians too often. Eldritch are naturally drawn by their abilities, and Excubitors can combat the Eldritch there without fear of civilians walking in at night.

## Ranking

There is a vague ranking system for Excubitors that describes their duties and responsibilities.

* **Recruit**: A new Excubitor who is still considered inexperienced and not as reliable as the higher ranks. They are generally assigned to be in groups of six or so, led by two veterans.
* **Veteran**: The standard Excubitor, trustworthy and competent. They are mentally stable and used to fighting Eldritch. Veterans in pairs lead teams of Recruits to hunt Seedlings and Infantile Eldritch. They also frequently fight in teams of only Veterans.
* **Elites**: Excubitors regarded as the best at combating the Eldritch, either in a fight or by use of their ability. Since they are relatively uncommon, Bastion typically keeps them in reserve. Instead of fighting and having to cope with the Eldritch on a regular basis, they are assigned to various other tasks that only long time members of Bastion would be able to do, such as recruitment and training. They also frequently join Noble Houses as personal Excubitors.

## Weaponry

Due to the nearly infinite number of possible Abilities, Excubitors possess a weapon of choice. However, most Excubitors use a ranged weapon, as Eldritch create large mental dissonance and terror to humans in close proximity. Those who use melee weapons generally use them to kill an Eldritch extremely quickly, or extend the reach of their weapon somehow.

Armament is usually taken care of by the 3rd Directorate. Some Excubitors, however, acquire personalized weapons by their own means.

A famed German Excubitor who serves in the French Bastion. He is a wielder of a Tier 2 ability.

## Ability

### le Kaiser

Hans is often referred to by his sobriquet rather than his actual name (his friends claim that 'Hans' lacks "umpf"). He received it due to the effect it tends to have on humans and the raw power it has over Eldritch.

He is one of the rare Tier 2 ability wielders, and is frequently ranked (by fans) as "the excubitor that you should never try to fight."

Bastion keeps the exact nature of his ability a secret.

It is known that his Tier 1 is to reduce or remove the effect of gravity from himself. He can use it to preserve or adjust vertical momentum.

## Trivia

* He has two pet dogs and a pet cat. The cat bosses the dogs around.

The bodyguard of Adeline Laurent, but whose status is unofficial due to the infamy associated with her name and reputation. She performs her duties while still remaining in the shadows.

She is also the former Commander of the InCube Field Forces, but was dishonorably discharged following the death of Marcelon Beaumont during the Great War. She was accused of conspiring with opposition elements to get Marcelon killed, and while the Bastion internal investigation yielded inconclusive results, political pressure from House Beaumont forced her removal from the Bastion ranks. However, House Laurent took up the opportunity and offered her asylum. Her decision to accept Laurent's offer cemented much of the suspicions among House Beaumont that House Laurent was at the core of the conspiracy to kill Marcelon, who was the heir to his House.

Louise Beaumont

Age
 Height
 Position
 Alignment
 Ability Type

The heir to House Beaumont, only daughter of Lord Beaumont.

## Personality

When she was young, she was once a warm, respectful, and cheerful girl who enjoyed people's presence and building relationships, causing her to be well-loved among the nobility as an ideal daughter of nobility. In the wake of her brother Marcelon Beaumont's death 15 years ago, however, her life changed as she became the next to inherit the House. Being the obedient daughter, she respected her family's wish, understanding the gravity of the situation. Thus, in her early teens up to the present, she had been rapidly learning all there is to learn about governing. This resulted in a change in her personality as she suppressed her own desires and gave up on her own pursuits in order to spend more time preparing. Now she is serious and business-minded, showing no interest in trivialities. Even her attire, a suit, reflected her change in behavior and lifestyle. However, she was still respected and loved because of how responsible a daughter she was in putting the welfare of her House first.

## History

Even though transfer of power to females was a widely accepted notion, Marcelon's death was impactful because it represented the loss of everything that Beaumont had been building up and preparing for in the next generation of power politics. Hence, Louise in her young tens had to be taught within half the usual time the means to be a head of house, and she had to forgo her personal pursuits for the benefit of her family. Before that she was close friends with Adeline despite disapproval. Now she was willing to cut ties almost completely, and hardly socialized with Adeline anymore except for formal events, even then only trivially.

Brother of Juneau d'Coupart, Master of Auguste Bernard Loiseau. He prioritizes his time in rebuilding the d'Coupart family by protecting what property and wealth they have left, and regaining eminence in the political scene. When the d'Coupart family suffered their losses during the Tragedy of Richioux, he was too young to do anything about it. The wealth had been split and distributed among other parties, and when he had gotten old enough to do anything about it, he only had a few meager properties remaining in his ownership. As a result, he is wary in his dealings with others, always fearing that they will take advantage of him. He cares for his sister, but he knows his priorities.

 Ability Type
 Goal

The heir to House Durand, daughter of Lord Durand.

## Personality

Among the three princesses, Elodie is the most demure and quiet, yet nobody would consider her an individual who resides in the backdrop of her elders. Often compared to the naturally magnetic presence of a fountain centerpiece statue, Elodie commands an influence not unlike her charismatic father's, as people find themselves listening whenever she speaks, as well as finding what she says meaningful. Though Elodie has no plans of inheriting her father's position, many people believe she could very well handle the responsibility. She exudes a graceful, mature elegance that differs from Adeline's feminine charm, but nonetheless has its own attractiveness.

With people she knows, she can be caring, warm, and even coquettish, depending on who she is interacting with. But when dealing with others, she maintains her composed appearance with an equally intractable personality. As if actively switching into a work mode, Elodie becomes more serious and deals with situations without a hint of emotion or irrationality. This part of her won her both the compliments of her competency as a leader but also subtle criticisms for being excessively cold in her mannerisms, potentially alienating some of the people who met her for the first time.

Winoa Larocque

Age
 Height
 Weight
 Position
 Alignment
 Ability Type
 Goal

A close friend of Astrid Bayard and Vivianne Gregoire. Headstrong and aggressive, she often made her opinion known while in training. Now, she manages to compose herself and speak in a much more restrained fashion, possibly because of her quiet friend.

## Personality

ENFJ

Assertive and bold are defining aspects of her personality. She has very strong opinions, but does not discredit others for holding differing ones (one can expect to get into a debate with her though). Despite her stubbornness, Winoa holds an odd charm, particularly among her quieter, more timid friends. She is insistent on finishing what she starts, and thus can be relied upon to do her part as well as carry others.

However, Winoa also finds herself insecure in her position. Due to her background, she does not have a clear grasp on who she is. Her dedication to the people around her are her way of attempting to define herself. Although she is kind, she finds it difficult to differentiate her actual selfless actions from the ones she performs "to seem kind." She is bold because she had to be in the past, and is trying to uphold the image she has created.

## History

Her family was middle class, and lived a comfortable life. Winoa was the middle child of three, and looked up to her older brother while taking care of her younger brother. She had always been fiercely independent since childhood, with a slight twist - as long as she had friends, she would fearlessly challenge authority. As a result, when her older brother enlisted in the army, a passion flared up inside of her to follow in his footsteps. Her parents were greatly opposed, and eventually the conflict reached a boiling point. In an impulsive action, she left her family and younger brother to enlist in the armed forces. But even when she had only just reached the halfway point in her tests, she began to regret the way she had left. However, for her there would be no turning back - she had been selected to become an Excubitor.

## Ability

### l'étreinte

The ability to set something apart from influence. Winoa may specify a single person aside from herself and make them immune to mental interference. It is invaluable when facing Blight type Eldritch, and can ensure that a teammate will not be crippled by the Insanity Aura at a given moment. In addition, she can apply the isolation entirely to herself in order to strengthen it.

## Relationships

* Astrid Bayard and Vivianne Gregoire: They found each other while searching for roommates, and hit it off after a series of mishaps that Winoa loves to recount. They are a rare sight - Recruits who have closely bonded together even after beginning missions. Although they have had their little fights and mishaps, each have shown determination to pull their little group together through thick and thin.

## Trivia

* Her favorite hat was a gift from her brother.

The friend of Cécile Lapointe. An ordinary citizen of the city, she was dragged into the conflict by refusing to leave Cécile's side.

## Personality

INFP: http://www.16personalities.com/infp-strengths-and-weaknesses

She is thoughtful, cautious in words, and very empathetic. When she chooses to care for someone, she will follow them until death. Camille very strongly believes in an intrinsic "right" and she has chosen to let that morality dictate her life. She believes in ideals above pragmatism, and pushes for harmony over logic. She connects easily with people and finds it natural to involve herself in other lives. However, she is aware of the burden it carries and thus fears becoming attached to too many people, beyond her ability to handle.

As Cécile noted, Camille is unusually stubborn over certain issues. She is a person "practical people" should not get along with, but she overcomes it by her demeanor and genuineness.

## History

She is of low/middle class standing. Her parents were sickly, so she spent a lot of time caring for them over school or going out with friends. When they passed away 4 years ago, she moved to this city and found a job as a bartender in la Havre. She works 4 pm to 2 am, dealing with both dinner and clean-up. Usually.

One night, she found Cécile badly injured and took the girl home with her. Over the next 6 months, she cared for her new friend, despite Cécile's protests. She learned about Bastion, Excubitors, and "monsters" during these 6 months. She was disturbed, but did not worry herself about it.

Before she knew it, she had become involved with creatures that no man should ever see.

## Ability

### la Phare

The Lighthouse. She acquired this ability soon after she met Cecile. On multiple occasions, it has saved her life. It allows her to be in tune with "danger", and is aware of when a threat is approaching. Once a danger has been identified, she is able to see the path of escape laid out in a golden light.
In addition, she is very resistant to mental influence and can maintain her composure under almost any circumstance.

## Relationships

* Cécile Lapointe: Initially, she took in the wounded girl out of pity and compassion. When Cecile betrayed her promise, she found herself hesitating to step into the darkness to chase her friend. However, she decided to carry out what she knew to be right, and took hold of Cecile's hand. Now they are inseparable.

Nicknamed "the Vision Eater" by her associates. She can create a heatless black flame in her hand that is fueled by light instead of oxygen. It spreads not by contact, but by being seen. Anything that directly looks at the flame will be struck blind, as the fire will spread to their own eyes and anyone who looks at an afflicted person's eyes will also be affected by the flame.

Leon Beaumont, the current Lord of House Beaumont. Father of Louise Beaumont. His bodyguard is Sophia Charretier.

## Personality

Known by many as the "Lion of the Hill," Lord Beaumont is well-known and widely respected for his virtuous, just rule as well as his martial prowess. Commoners feel protected with such an assertive lord, rarely feeling discontent as they believe his economic and political decisions for his governed regions are sensible. Amongst the nobility, his reputation is even more impressive. Nobles and lords of lesser houses known him to be a stern but trustworthy man, one who keeps his promises and lives up to his words, though occasionally quite demanding of others as he wants them live up to his expectations. He is loyal to the Crown and is tactful with the other two Houses, but it is clear that he has a grudge against Laurent for Marcelon's death as well as the infringements in the past that has caused the balance of power to rest in the latter's hands for quite some time. Determined not to let House Beaumont fall to ruin in his lifetime, he rests his hopes in Louise.

## History

Beaumont was one of the ancient three Houses that had a history spanning multiple centuries within the country, being technically royalty as there were several rulers who hailed from their family line. Due to the meritocratic nature of the government, however, even a house with a royal background may not always win the throne; those who are deemed more worthy and wise can still win the hearts and minds of the masses. While the throne frequently switched between the three Houses, in recent times Laurent has been Beaumont's primary competitor, a tenuous relationship further exacerbated by the petty disagreements and harassment claims. With Durand, however, Beaumont found a relatively reliable comrade who in spite of his neutrality remained someone trustworthy enough to maintain the balance between the two other houses, a fact that Beaumont knew Laurent understood and respected as well.

It is in this charged atmosphere that Beaumont lost his son and original heir to the House, Marcelon, in the Great War. His son's death was shocking news to him in spite of the fact that he had been the one to urge his son into military service as an act of patriotism, primarily due to the fact that Marcelon should've been protected by a Excubitor Keeper. Unwilling to believe that Marcelon's death was an accident, Beaumont initially ordered investigations to be done, one of which implicated House Laurent's involvement. But knowing that baseless accusations would be counterproductive, Beaumont instead dedicated his efforts into preparing Louise instead. And while he is proud of his daughter's rapid learning and natural talent, some part of him regretted robbing her of her feminine youth and sacrificing her future for the house's sake.

An Elite Excubitor of the infamous Department A of the 2nd Directorate--InCUBE. He is frequently entrusted with guiding Recruits in Bastion due to his skill in tracking and pursuit of The Eldritch.

He was killed by Cécile Lapointe as he sought to arrest her in Post 9.

## History

Mysterious, but oddly charming.

He quickly excelled once he mastered his ability. Due to the rarity of abilities that can track targets, he found himself put under immense pressure. However, not a single Eldritch ever eluded him, and Gabriel quickly rose to the rank of Veteran. He passes on his knowledge and experience to those he trains.

## Ability

### le Fataliste

His ability is abstract, creating a clairvoyant path that guarantees that he will bump into his target at the best possible location and time. This means though he does not know where the victim goes, as long as he follows the path, he will be able to intercept his victim's escape route in the best possible situation. This allows him to set up the ideal location that will maximize chances of victory.

Although a relatively passive ability, it is invaluable in hunting.

Adeline Laurent

 Ability Type

The heiress to House Laurent, Adeline Laurent.

## Personality

She mostly goes along with things and life. She lives heavily "in the moment." Cheerful with elegance, she is usually seen speaking to someone. Adeline is known as an easy going, friendly woman whose natural smile can make even the jaded momentarily drop their guard. She seems to not care what other people think of her.

On the other hand, her personality causes friction with nobility, especially when she becomes headstrong. Although she is attentive to the concerns of others, she has a deep belief that she is usually right. As a result, she tends to force her way, even against the will of others.

Although she appears bright and cheerful, underneath the surface lies a selfishness. She can be greedy and forceful as she seeks to make herself as happy as possible.

This is the reason she does not mind the conflict with House Beaumont. Although she does think of Louise as a "friend", as long as she herself does not come into direct confrontation she is fine with it. But the moment she wants something, she will stop at very little to get it.

## History

The eldest child of House Laurent, Adeline grew up with tremendous expectations placed upon her. From an early age, she was raised to become the heir, as the family was not certain to whether or not a son would be born. But to their surprise, Adeline proved to be more headstrong than they expected

It is unknown where it's Nobody counter part is, nor if it is an Emblem or Pureblood heartless. Unlike most Heartless that attack anything, it specifically targets Cassie.

This trait of his, which is his flexibility, also causes him to be consistently open to speaking with new people.

Bernard frequently uses the ability to both disrupt the Eldritch's mobility as well as protect his allies. By altering the landscape around the enemy, he can easily ensnare even large Eldritch and slow them down almost permanently.

## Relationships

* Reynard Dufort: Although merely acquaintances, they enjoy each other's company. If they worked at the same department, they would most likely be rather friendly.

 Ability Type
 Goal

A close friend of Reynard Dufort. Although spontaneous and whimsical, his position was gained through careful contigency preparation during missions. Well distinguished in the field, he has become known as a difficult-to-get-along-with but very capable Excubitor.

## Personality

ESTP

Extroverted, spontaneous, and clever but pragmatic. Although he seems to enjoy the company of others, he quickly moves on to meet new people. He is constantly moving about and reorganizing various aspects of his life. All in all, he is "fully there" when interacted with, but does not stay put long enough to give you a closer look at his character.

In combat, however, he has proven to be flexible and reliable. He is versatile, and can function as a Keeper or even a Vindicator if need be with sufficient preparation. William displays the ability to maintain a clearheaded grasp of the team's situation, and responds quickly to threats. On the other hand, he never fully plans his actions out, and instead opts to improvise on the spot. The result is an extremely stressful mission for his teammates, but a relatively safe one. He is aware of the unpredictability of the Eldritch, and thus chooses to never commit to a single course of action.

## Ability

### l'adepte

The ability to switch the positions of two objects within 100 meters of himself. He can specify these two objects ahead of time, giving him an entire armory on his person. He can easily summon a grenade in place of a knife.
The limitations on his ability are these:
- Specification is done by touching the object, and then the one to switch.
- He cannot specify an object with a mass greater than 70 kg.
- He must know the position of both objects.
- The objects must be inanimate.
- The current maximum number of specified pairs is 100.

The following properties are applied to the objects.
- Momentum is conserved - only position is switched. He cannot throw a knife, swap it out with a concrete block, and have it maintain the same speed.
- The objects are switched as soon as he decides to activate his ability.
- The positions switch relative to the center of gravity. However, the object will exert force in an attempt to fit into an enclosed space that would be too small for it.

A few common applications are as follows.
- Replacing a knife that has struck an enemy with a grenade, and then switching the safety pin of the grenade with a bag of shrapnel. This allows him to deliver and detonate a grenade at will from range.
- Replacing an object with a steel barrier to block attacks
- Replacing his outerwear with defensive or offensive tools
- Removing obstructions/rubble by replacing shards with small pebbles
- Replacing incoming projectiles or weapons with fluffballs
- Bringing food into no eating zones and hiding it at will
- Cheating in card games

## Relationships

* Reynard Dufort: Good friends. He fully trusts Reynard, as he was the man who trained him.
* Evelyn Dufort: Finds her charming, but his favor is not returned.
* Barthélémy Stuart: He likes him
Cassie's Journal

### *MASTER JOURNAL DAY 32*

I have yet to find a heartless in this new world. I hope that my being here doesn't open this world to the darkness. It is a very pleasant world.....However some of it's citizens need to learn the meaning of manners. I'm trying to stay inconspicious but that is proving to be difficult. There are rumors that there is a great evil hidden here. Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't have to fight the baddie.

### *MASTER JOURNAL DAY 46*

There was indeed a powerful Heartless garding this world's Keyhole. I had to destory the monster. I have searched the world to see if any heartless were released upon the destruction of the powerful one....and I have found nothing. There are no Heartless, no Nobodies, no Unversed, no Nightmares......I did find a new recipe for a new Spirit. I will have to use it shortly when I Dive to the Heart of this world to make sure everything is okay.

These locations include: Blacksmiths and general goods merchants, Wielded by various characters or enemies, particularly draugr deathlords and draugr death overlords, or Found as random loot in chests or as a world item throughout Skyrim.

The head of the mace is composed of eight-bladed flanges. The flanges begin to come to a center point and then crown out, into individual edged tips. The central body of these flanges is styled in a decorative silver lining. The flanges are supported by the end of the rod. This area of the handle is decorated with floral silver linings.
The shaft is partially smooth ebony, with the greater section of it being lined with stylized silver linings in geometric and curled patterns. The handle is wrapped with a strip of black leather several times over for a great length of it.

## References

1. ↑ “I almost became one of the twenty-three,” Duncan mused to himself.

“Twenty-three?”

“Students, a year, who get killed by their own work. The number is really lower than that, but there were four straight years where it was something like twenty-three, twenty-three, twenty-two, then twenty-three again, so the number stuck. Saying I was almost one of the nineteen doesn’t have the same cachet,” Duncan said. He knew he sounded more amused and confident than he should have. But the nice thing about being around this particular experiment was that it didn’t really matter. No judgment here.

“That was a dumb thing to almost do,” Ashton said, and the judgment was ten times as heavy as it might otherwise have been, coming from a mouth so innocent. - Excerpt from **Interlude 11.x**

The reticent, yet curt Vindicator of AESOP Team A. He holds a grudging respect for Hans Keuster, the only man in the 4th Directorate to have bested him in head on combat.

## History

Has a dear friend that he hasn't seen for a long time.

## Relationships

* Hans Keuster: Immense respect. Does not like his personality, but acknowledges his commander's ability and personal strength.
* Nathalie Maheu: Believes her to be much too strict. She's probably the most reliable person in the team, but she usually goes too far. Could use a vacation. Or a massage.

Nicodeme 'Nico' Brisboi is a young man who is invested in witnessing the lengths life will go to survive. He is very analytical and thoughtful.

## Appearance

\\*extra, if you have a picture of your character it's enough\*\

## Personality

Nico comes off as very quiet and sometimes a little slow because he spends so much time thinking before speaking. He often will be thinking for long enough for people to believe he is ignoring them, but after people get to know him they realize he just takes a while.
Nico is very methodical in his thinking, he spends arguably too much time weighing pros and cons or trying to come up with other solutions when he should be acting.
His goals are mainly just his survival and witnessing how humanity defeats its enemies.
Nico has a very strong belief that life will always find a way, and since life can find a way, he can find a way. He also wants to be in the thick of things to affirm that his belief is correct.
His biggest flaw is that he often spends too much time thinking and not enough time acting. He realizes it is futile to try and make the world fit his pace, but attempts to force the fact anyway.

## History

\\*history - how you got to where you are\*\

## Ability

### La Fleur

Nico's power involves creating a seed he launches onto the enemy. Once it lands, it begins to grow on the enemy, blooming into a flower at the location of any weak points. In addition to that, the vines restrict the Eldritch, so it is more difficult for it to move.

## Trivia

* Nico has an obsession with candy canes. Even he doesn't know why.
* Nico uses a Chatellerault Model 1929 Light Machine Gun
* Nico has a terrarium with lichen covered rocks that he uses to explain to people how insane life's will to survive is. He has issues.
