Facadia

Facadia in Episode 5 Chapter 1

## Summary

Facadia is energetic young woman from France who was born a wisher. She has the ability to transform spoken words into reality and has a monstrous appearance. This makes avoiding harassment and conflict in her society nearly impossible. Facadia is the main protagonist of Wisher World.

## Appearance

Facadia is a tall and very slender woman with a monster-like appearance. Due to being a wisher, she has a lavender complexion, a single curved horn the right side of her head, red pupils, and a long prehensile tail with three stripes and a star on its end. Facadia has very long curly jet-black hair [that is sometimes colored purple for stylization] that's cut into a shorter outer layer around her face. A tuff of her hair stands up on the left side of her head giving her an asymmetrical silhouette. She has a circular face with large angular semi-circle red eyes, a small, pointed nose with an inwardly curved nasal bridge, and a wide mouth.

Facadia wears a brown mini skirt with decorated stitching on the left side, a gold belt, and a yellow frilly under skirt. Her yellow long sleeve shirt has puffy shoulders and is tucked in. It's adorned with a brown buttoned up vest. She wears brown and tan knee-high boots and a short green scarf around her neck.

## Personality

Facadia is an energetic, confident, outwardly expressive personality. She can be playful and enjoys a good bout of pressing people's buttons. Facadia enjoys being a wisher and nearly everything that it entails. The only downside to being a wisher is that her wishes often result in tragic consequences. This is why Facadia is reluctant to grant wishes. The greatest struggle for Facadia is resisting her desire to fight. It's triggered by people antagonizing her out of fear or harassing her to use her powers. It's implied that her father struggled with succumbing to acts of violence as well. According to Facadia's superstitions, this sinful behavior results in tragedies happening around her. This mindset is bolstered by other's tendency to scapegoat their problems onto Facadia. This is what Facadia refers to as her curse.

Some of Facadia's values are tied to her Christian background. She expresses her hope and gratitude in life in a prayer. This religiosity is a strong motivator for keeping peace, however the downside is that she is more focused on actions of holiness/sin rather than real life consequences. That being said, Facadia does still genuinely care for others and receives joy at the thought of others being happy. Even people she does not know. Her views on theology are a strong influence on Facadia's fears. Facadia is less afraid physical threats and mortality. Instead, she dreads supernatural threats to her spirituality.

While Facadia is not a hermit by choice, she is not bothered the fact that she's not accepted by or able to participate in the city she resides. Facadia, being an ostracized wisher, spends her time living in a cathedral away from society. Though she observes the masses general patterns, this distance has caused her to greatly generalize people. These generalizations about people's tendencies are not without merit, as she is often able to predict and read others. However, Facadia does overlook the individuality of those she comes across to a fault. This, as well as the general violence normalized in her surroundings combined her spirituality has led Facadia to being partially desensitized to death and suffering. Thankfully, these feelings do not extend to the weak and innocent, as Facadia took the time to get a young boy out harm's way during a battle. She also still prefers prosperity for people overall, as illustrated in her prayer over the city.

Her opinion of both commoners and nobility is low. She comes to the conclusion that crowds can easily be swayed by threats of power. Knights are more admirable or venerated in some way to Facadia. This probably due to the reality that her father may be a knight, and that Facadia finds pleasure in fighting trained warriors.

## Abilities and Skills

As a wisher, Facadia can perform the "wish" of bringing spoken words into reality. The wish's form will manifest in a way that reflects the nature of the speaker's heart. Usually, it is a negative aspect of the person's heart which can cause a wish to manifest in a dangerous way. Facadia is limited in that she cannot speak her own words into wishes and will cannot predict how any wish will manifest.

Facadia is also a samsonite. She has been bestowed the potential for supernatural athletic abilities from birth. Facadia has the attack power to quickly and seriously damage trained fighters with her fist and kicks. Normal, untrained fighters are no match for her in battle as Facadia can incapacitate them with ease. However, in large enough numbers they can exhaust her. While her flesh can be significantly damaged by professional weapons, they have trouble leaving deep enough wounds that break bone or impair internal organs unless wielded by exceptional warriors. The most durable parts of Facadia's body are her horn, followed by her tail. In general, Facadia is built well to take damage and will fight through immense pain, but she can also be reckless which leaves her vulnerable to altered mental states that come from blood loss or prolonged adrenaline rushes.

Facadia is very acrobatic which expresses her playful nature as a person and a fighter. She is fairly flexible, can jump and land from heights, and move with exceptional agility. As a fighter, Facadia is playful and creative. She prefers to fight unarmed but will use the environment around her.

Facadia's tail is prehensile and can stretch to great lengths. Due to this, Facadia can use it like a rope or a whip to grab, climb, or attack. Because her tail is more durable than her body, it can also be used in defense. Her horn is extremely durable and unlike her body and tail, cannot feel pain or bleed. In fact, the horn is so hard that striking it can cause the attacker pain. Its shape lends itself well to being used like a sickle.

Facadia's main gap in skills is her lacking endurance. Facadia is best at displaying spurts of power but will find herself losing steam in a war of attrition. Facadia will attempt to create opportunities for her to catch her breath or stunt the enemies' tactics in order for her to continue fighting. She also lacks discipline and will play around so much in battle that she takes hits that should've been avoided.

There are a few non combat skills that Facadia possesses. One being singing and the other being sculpting.
