## Gameplay Details

### Role

ProtagonistVessel of the Forgotten Muse

Seven is one of the protagonists in *Dawn of the New Hour*. Considered a White Mage, she studies white magic in her spare time. She is a quiet, shy woman who always seems to question herself. She has a strong sense of justice and, like Victoria, hates bullies.

She is the vessel of the Forgotten Muse, a spirit who lived in the times of the ancients of the Greeks. Because of the possession, she now has the power to use the magic she studies.

## Development

Original Design - Pre 2016-2019

In the original design of "Heather", much of her character was originally based on a real-life inspiration of the same name until a falling out between the two creators.

The original design had the character in a dark-teal long skirt and a white tee, with long brown hair put up in a ponytail. She was adorned with cat ears in this original concept. Her Crystal at that time was a simple round aquamarine piece set in a simple metal plate.

### "Seven" Design - 2020 - present

After the falling out, the character went under extensive reconstruction into a character we have not yet seen. Miranda found that the place the character had fallen into was too extensively dug up, but at the same time wanted to protect the original creator of Heather and her creation. Thus, Heather was rechristened "Seven", a new character with a similar background and character traits, but missing many key pieces of her original design. Seven now wears a jacket over her shirt, which has been altered from a tee to a loose multicolored faux sweater. Gone were the days of white and teal, now Seven embraced more reds and blacks, with her jacket being a sort of cream color with black accents.

The redesign also saw a new Crystal made. Rather than the old round basic one from before, Seven now wears a bright blue crystal held in place in the middle of a crescent moon.

## Talents and Powers

### Skills in Battle

Seven doesn't have many magical attacks, but all of her magical attacks are imbued with Light magic. She is able to use Saint/Saint II as well as Holy. She is also able to use wind-type attacks as well due to the Muse's power.

### Healing

Because of the amount of power the Muse can bestow, Seven is able to use a variety of healing spells on herself and characters around her. From basic healing to full-on revival, she is shown increasingly capable in white and green magic.

She's not only able to heal sustained damage of herself and others, but she is also able to remove negative status effects. Seven is able to heal poison, remove paralysis, and cure confusion, as well as a variety of other negative statuses. This is the reason why Sullivan, Victoria and Heather are a great combination in battle; Seven can remove bad status effects on companions, Victoria can add positive status effects to the party, and Sullivan can add bad status effects back at the enemy.

## Wallpaper

Released on March 7th 2016, wallpapers for some of the characters were made by Sullivan Miranda. "Heather" has her own wallpaper, measured at 1366 x 768.

Miranda stated that this wallpaper would be re-edited to meet the confines of 640 x 480 to fit the loading screen of the game. However, this idea was scrapped with the Aurum Demo, and the loading screen was replaced with her 2017 artwork.

We have yet to see if the redesign of Seven or any of the other 2019/2020 artwork will be conformed to new wallpapers.

## Trivia

* The original sprite for "Heather" was made by a real-life counterpart under the same name. It was later edited for detail additions, updated hairstyle, and a color swap. In 2020, the character was announced a complete overhaul, and was renamed "Seven".
* "Heather" had many cat-like tendencies.
	+ She had a love for fish.
	+ She had cat ears on her body. Whether these are real or accessories had never been revealed.
	+ Her shy ways resemble the shyness of a cat in a new environment.
	+ She was extremely fearful of thunder and was weak against Thunder attacks because to reflect this.
	+ Unlike most cats, she loved water, and can absorb water attacks. (never taken effect in the demo, but rather, would have been included in the full game.)
* Due to the redesign, most of those tendencies have all but disappeared, all except for the love of cats, fish, and fear of thunder.
* Seven and Victoria are rumored to have a connected past, but Miranda has not gone into further detail about it.
