## Appearance

Pyrrha is a curvaceous young woman who wears her long red hair in a waist-length ponytail, curled slightly into a loose ringlet. She also wore light-green eyeshadow around the far upper corners of her green eyes. She was tall and quite muscular compared to most of the other girls at Beacon.

As a top, she wore a brown overbust corset with a vertical strip of lighter brown in the center. Additionally, Pyrrha wore an elastic, black, A-line mini skirt and brown opera-length gloves on both arms. She wore a red ankle-length sash that wrapped around her skirt, which was later emulated by Jaune Arc.

As for accessories, there was a small circular bronze plate on her right hip opposite two pouches with both connected to a belt. The plate bore her emblem. Underneath her hair, she always wore a brown circlet adorned with a pair of small, green, teardrop-shaped emeralds on thin chains. She also sported a large bronze gorget around her neck and a bronze bracelet on the upper half of her left arm. Even when dressed in her school uniform, Pyrrha continued to wear her headpiece.

Unlike the rest of the female cast, Pyrrha wore armor. She had elaborate bronze greaves that started below her mid-thigh before continuing downwards into her boots as well as a pair of cuisses that began mid-thigh and ended slightly above her knees. She was also equipped with a bronze bracer capable of connecting with Akoúo̱ atop the sleeve on her left arm. Her high-heeled boots were brown with bronze trim, matching her skirt and sleeves and reaching up to mid-calf.

## Personality

Described as the "pride of Mistral," Pyrrha was a very professionally-capable, friendly, righteous yet relaxed and selfless person. She was a composed and collected individual who, despite being a celebrity, was modest and patient around other people, making her very sociable. Additionally, she tended to be quite formal. In addition to her impressive range of combat abilities, she was a quick thinker, knowing her limits and assessing her opponents before acting.

Pyrrha took her studies and relationships equally seriously, making her a bit stubborn and emotionally sensitive. This came from her loyalty toward her friends as well as her good intent. She was willing to keep secrets and help friends in need.

She quickly became good friends with her teammates, especially Jaune, and got along with the rest of Team RWBY, often having conversations during lunches and sharing a similar schedule during classes. However, she felt that she struggled to make friends as everyone saw her celebrity status before considering her personal self. Her limited experience with people led her to apologize even when helping them.

Pyrrha's righteousness willed her to take risks for the greater good and always concern herself with the ethics of making decisions, such as volunteering to be the next Fall Maiden. She was willing to become the Fall Maiden despite the risks to her well-being and concerns over the scruples of the transfer process. For most of her life, Pyrrha believed she was destined to be a great Huntress, one that would protect the world, and strived for this goal no matter what she could lose. Pyrrha was selfless to a fault - one of the traits that harmed her most.

Pyrrha's selfless nature, combined with her beliefs of carrying out her duties as a huntress made it difficult, if not outright impossible, for her to make decisions for herself out of fear of letting down those who have placed their faith in her. Regardless of the potential dangers of taking such powers through unorthodox means, she was not fazed by it as much as the idea of losing Jaune and her friends.

## Main Skills and Equipment

**Miló and Akoúo̱**: **Miló** is Pyrrha's signature weapon, a weapon capable of transitioning between a javelin, a xiphos, and a rifle. In javelin form, the rifle barrel becomes part of the body and Pyrrha can use it to fire the javelin, giving it a burst of increased range, speed, and power. In contrast, **Akoúo̱** is Pyrrha's secondary weapon, a Greek Dipylon-style shield that she carries on her left arm. Akoúo̱ has a razor-sharp edge and can be used as a thrown weapon, like a large discus. Pyrrha is skilled at wielding Akoúo̱ to the point where she can casually judge her throws well enough to ensure that her shield returns to her upon its rebound. The shield is highly durable, able to withstand massive concussive force, break through several trees consecutively, withstand the attack of a Death Stalker's claw, and effectively function as a launch surface to amplify Nora Valkyrie's jump-attack, while also protecting Pyrrha from a contact shot with one of Magnhild's grenades.

**Semblance: Polarity**: Pyrrha's Semblance is Polarity, the ability to control magnetism. Pyrrha's semblance is not affected by the number of objects she uses it on, and she has shown the ability to remotely manipulate multiple objects at once, including objects several times larger and heavier than herself, and move them at high speeds. As shown in "Best Day Ever", she does not need to come in contact with a metal object in order to manipulate it, and she can manipulate normally non-magnetic metals, such as aluminum. In most combat situations, Pyrrha does not go out of her way to broadcast her Semblance's abilities. Instead, she uses it only to make very subtle changes of movement for her own weapons and sometimes her opponent's weapon to affect the course of a battle. This gave her the psychological edge of appearing to be invincible in the eyes of most people. However, she has the ability to use her power offensively, as she can use her Semblance to create a magnetic pulse.
