Pecan Oakheart

**Pecan Oakheart** is a student from Haven Academy and a member of Team HOLT. Her team consists of Flynn Hearth, Sandy Linnet and Tallow Colt.

## Character

Few words describe Pecan Oakheart better than “gentle giant.” Though her considerable stature and combat skill can be intimidating, she is one of the kindest students currently residing at Haven Academy - and these factors make her one of the most popular students, too.

Pecan grew up just outside the kingdom of Mistral, using her semblance to make clay constructs she could play with in solitude. It took a Grimm attack for her to realise she could use her semblance to create guardians for her home, and from then on her people revered her.

Though it would tempt many others, Pecan has never let her popularity get to her head. To this day she remains grounded, pure-hearted and honest, if perhaps a bit boisterous. With how excitable she can get sometimes, she often seems like a muscle-bound, mountain-sized child.

## Abilities and Powers

### Weapon

Pecan’s weapon of choice is a claymore with built-in shotgun functionality. Its scale is so large that only someone her size would be able to carry it -- let alone use it in a fight.

### Semblance

Pecan possesses the ability to generate clay-based pawns to perform a multitude of tasks. Each golem costs a significant deal of aura and focus, forcing Pecan to stand still and meditate to sustain them.

## Trivia

### Allusion

Pecan is based on Gaia, one of the Greek primordial deities.

### Colour Naming Rule

* Pecan - From the Pecan nut/drupe
* Oakheart - From “Oak”, a type of tree
LLAC/Nest Nerium

—Nest to Moira.

## Nest Nerium

**Nest Nerium** is an antagonist in *LLAC*. She was one of the culprits responsible for the deaths of Yaara Dailan and Berilo Gaspar, alongside her partner Moira.

She expresses familiarity with (and mutual hostility towards) Cait, and refers to herself as their "sister" - though they do not appear to be related by blood.

Following Moira's death at Manju-Shage, she fled. Her current whereabouts are unknown.

## Appearance

Nest is a young woman in her mid-twenties, with light pink hair brushed back on the left side of her face, turning paler at the tips. Her eyes are yellow-green, and she has three scars that cut across her cheeks and nose.

Nest wears a mantle of dark fur on her shoulders, over a buttoned brown vest with silver trim and a pink liner. She wears a black collared tanktop under her vest.

She wraps a pink sash around her waist, over a pair of beige trousers.

Through unknown means, a pair of mechanical wings have been grafted to her back, granting her the ability of flight.

## Personality

Nest is rather short-tempered and impulsive, as displayed by her interactions with Moira. While they work together, she follows the latter's orders, but expresses irritation in doing so. They appear to hold at least some degree of connection with each other, as she was shocked and aggrieved at Moira's sudden death.

She is borderline (if not outright) sociopathic, cruelly mocking and toying with opponents she knows to be weaker than her.

Despite her many faults, she displays a fervent sense of loyalty to Cait's father. However, she notes that *he*  has little regard for her, a point of resentment when comparing herself to Cait.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Nest alludes to **Neman**, an Irish goddess and one of the three Morrígna sisters, who personifies the frenzied havoc of war.

### Colour Naming Rule

* Her given name refers to a bird's nest, made out of small twigs and branches - generally varying shades of brown.
* Her surname refers to nerium, also called oleander, a toxic species of shrub that bears pink flowers.
Umeko Amaranth

**Siblings:** Akane, Miyako, Nanako, Kasumi, Akiko, Sakura, Natsuki, Ayano, Hana

## Media

### First Appearance

Page 564

**Umeko Amaranth** is the tenth daughter of Aka and Yukiko Amaranth. She was born following Akane and Nanako's departure from the Amaranth Estate and they were not informed of her birth by their mother.

## Trivia

### Colour Naming Rule

* "Umeko" is a Japanese female name meaning "plum tree, child," bringing to mind blue-purple tones.
	+ Though Umeko is seen in an orange swaddle, the colouring was an unintentional error. The artist intended to make it more plum-coloured to make it match her name, but mistakenly thought of a Peach-themed character.
* Her surname is a pink-red toned plant.

Critical Hit

**Critical Hit** is Sterling Braith's semblance.

It allows him to identify weak points in his enemies and launch attacks against them.

## Description

Sterling’s semblance allows him to identify a weak point in his enemy when he affords them his full attention and guarantee a critical hit. His identification of a weak point is characterised by a glint in his eye, and his critical hits often cause his opponent's aura to flare.

Sterling can also use his semblance to manoeuvre in ways that trigger his opponents to take damage while he is merely defending.

## Trivia

* As of Arc 3 Chapter 5, Sterling's semblance is accompanied by his eyes turning completely white and emitting a trail that turns yellow along its length. He is also seen followed by a trail of black after-images with yellow detailing.
* Critical Hit is reflective of Sterling's allusion to the sin of Greed.
	+ It is effectively a "cheating" system that allows him to garner as many victories as he can to satisfy his ego.
Kopfjäger

**Kopfjäger** is Isambard Nihtholt's personal weapon, a wood ax and shotgun hybrid.

## Description

Kopfjäger is a black and silver shotgun with a dark turquoise body. It has two barrels aligned vertically as its shotgun mode, and can be flipped - using the barrels as a handle - to use the wood ax extending out from the gun's grip.

## Trivia

* Kopfjäger translates to "headhunter" in German.
	+ This references the Headless Horseman in the tale of Ichabod Crane, Isambard's allusion.
Tallow Colt

**Tallow Colt** is a student from Haven Academy and a member of Team HOLT. His team consists of Flynn Hearth, Pecan Oakheart and Sandy Linnet.

## Character

Known for his intelligence, Tallow prefers to fight smarter rather than harder.

He was an athletic boy and had the talent to become a renowned sportsman, but fate had other ideas. Gored by a Boarbatusk and barely surviving, Tallow elected to become a huntsman and was tutored by his grandfather Argan, who was a skilled yet unscrupulous former huntsman himself.

Though Tallow’s childhood injuries still hold him back a little to this day, he more than makes up for it with his sharp mind, and is the strategic core of Team HOLT.

## Abilities and Powers

### Weapon

Using his athleticism to his advantage, Tallow fights with a fairly lightweight sword-javelin hybrid.

### Semblance

Much like the tale of the Trojan Horse, Tallow’s semblance fools his enemies. Through unbroken concentration he can increase a target’s energy consumption, making them feel more vital but wasting their energy at the same time.

## Trivia

### Allusion

Tallow is based on Odysseus, a legendary King from Greek Mythology known for his intellect and cunning.

### Colour Naming Rule

* Tallow - a rendered form of beef/mutton fat.
* Colt - A male horse under four years old.
Nova Fandango

**Nova Fandango** is a young woman from Avon and member of Team ZNON, working under Viola Braith.

Nova and her team, Team ZNON, were students at Avon's Lodestar Academy until its closure at the behest of Farran Hawthorne.

## Appearance

Nova is slightly taller than average, with medium brown skin and reddish-orange eyes. Her hair is styled in an undercut, trimmed close on one side of her had and swooped over on the other.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Nova alludes to the King of Diamonds from the poem "The Queen of Hearts."

### Color Naming Rule

* A nova is a bright, astronomical event.
* "Fandango" is a shade of pink.

Blaine Besart

**Blaine Besart**is a student from Haven Academy and the leader of Team BRSS. His team consists of Honey Rosso, Serena Vulpina and Shui Ishikawa.

He is the twin brother of Aurelia Besart.

## Personality

Everything seems to go Blaine’s way. He was born to an upper-middle-class family with an innate talent for running, swimming, fighting - just about anything physical - and the ease with which he could survive on a mix of talent and charm bred complacency within him.

Believing his natural skill meant he was destined for greatness, Blaine signed up for Haven Academy. His motives for doing so were more based around garnering popularity than actually helping other people - in his eyes, saving civilians is a “bonus.”

Blaine’s lack of effort mixed with a high opinion of himself make him one of the less popular students at Haven Academy, and it’s not like it’s an unreasonable reputation. He’s in his second year, and his teammates have only just begun to warm up to him – while training him to be less arrogant.

## Powers and Abilities

### Weapon: Autarch

Relying on mainly brute force, Blaine arms himself with a gold-headed axe. A rotating barrel allows him to inject dust into channels in the axe head, infusing his strikes with elemental energy.

### Semblance

By making physical contact with a target, Blaine applies an effect that increases the amount of damage it can sustain. The subject takes on a gold tint, and the duration of the effect correlates to how long Blaine touched them. A moment’s contact will see it only last a few seconds, while sustained contact can make it last for minutes.

Blaine’s semblance may not be passive, but he often forgets to ‘turn it off’ -- accidentally turning his friends golden in non-ideal situations.

## Trivia

* "Blaine" is derived from the given name *Bláán*, which meant "yellow" in Gaelic.
* "Besart" is an Albanian name meaning "Golden Oath."
Henry Reynolds

**Henry Reynolds** is the brother of famous practical joker, Quentin. After Quentin was killed by a prank gone wrong, Henry became a suspect, even though the police believes that Reuben Goodall was the guilty party. Henry appeared in "The Last Laugh" (S03E12).

It was revealed that Quentin was working with councilman and businessman Terry Sargent with his campaign for gun restrictions. Quentin was hired to pull off pranks with Reuben to raise awareness for gun violence. Henry worked for Terry in his financing business, bearing the responsibility of the business' cash flow.

Throughout their childhood, Henry had been covering up for Quentin whenever he causes trouble with his pranks. Henry was also the ine who provided lawyers for Quentin whenever a lawsuit pops up. This resulted to Henry becoming disadvantaged — barely having money to provide for himself and to keep his brother clean to the law.

However, Quentin stole money from Councilman Sargent's business account, using Henry's access code. Of course, Henry was bound to get into trouble. Henry decided to kill Quentin when he decided not to cover up for him anymore. He achieved this by replacing the blank bullet with a real one. So that, when the prank is pulled off, Reuben would fatally shoot Quentin and kill him.

But then, Edwin Goodman, who is later discovered as Reuben's uncle, proved Reuben innocent from the crime and determined Henry as the real killer. There were traces of acetone on the bullet casing. Edwin specifically remembered that, in his first encounter with Henry, that Henry had been varnishing his dining chairs. The police found Henry's gloves, the acetone left stains on the glove. This means that Henry handled the bullet that killed Quentin. Henry, in the end, confessed his bitterness towards his brother, claiming that he was finally making a life for himself with Councilman Sargent's business and that Quentin was ruining it by incriminating him with stealing the money. Henry was arrested by the police afterwards.
Nepheline Niter

**Nepheline Niter** is a student from Atlas Academy. Originally a member of Team FAWN with Ferro Feldgrau, Astra Akash and Wenge Brown, Nepheline's team was dissolved when her teammates were killed during the Fall of Beacon. Following this, she was placed on Team TSCN with her brother Tyrus, Scoria Flint and Adularia Chalk.

## Character

Nepheline is the much more reserved child of the Niter family, and while she is usually more rational and logical than her brother, her emotions are much less balanced in high-stress situations.

As a first year student filling in on a fourth year team, expectations are extremely high for Neph. This is a constant source of anxiety, especially when one considers why she is on Team TSCN to begin with - something that she prefers not to dwell on.

Thankfully her bond with her brother is unbreakable; the amount of times they’ve been at odds can be counted on one hand. She gets on well enough with Adularia, and Scoria acts like something of a guardian figure (albeit a bad influence), so she’s probably in the best place she could be right now… given the circumstances, at least.

## Abilities and Powers

### Weapon

Nepheline’s family comes from a mining background so, much like her brother, she fights with a tool she learned to use in her youth.

Escadrille is a heavy, earth-boring drill suited best against stone constructs, rock dust, and any kind of armour - be it man-made or Grimm bone.

### Semblance

Neph shares her semblance with her brother. Their bond is so strong that their semblance allows them to think as one, sharing strategy, muscle memory and commands at will.

Thankfully, they also possess the ability to close themselves off from the connection - after all, siblings tend to annoy each other.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Nepheline alludes to the sister in the fairytale “Brüderchen und Schwesterchen,” the more rational of the two siblings.

### Colour Naming Rule

* "Nepheline" is a mineral, often blue or grey-yellow.
* "Niter" is a white mineral.
Illumination

**Illumination** is Isambard Nihtholt's semblance.

It allows him to turn his body into a light source.

## Description

Isambard’s semblance causes his body to glow with bioluminescence to the point he turns completely pale as he produces said light.

## Trivia

* Isambard gained his semblance to combat his fear of the dark.
	+ This is inspired by his allusion, Ichabod Crane, being scared of his own footsteps while in the dark.
Tsubaki District

—Jin-Shi Pan

**Tsubaki District** is a suburb in the outskirts of the city of Mistral. More residential than the central areas of the city, it is considered an ideal place to lie low without worrying about the city's more untoward social circles.

## Layout

The majority of Tsubaki district is residential: mainly home to family houses and flats, though there are also grocers and other day-to-day conveniences to serve those who live in the area.

### Elysium Academy

Tsubaki District is home to Elysium Academy, one of the primary combat schools in Mistral. Some of the students from this school graduate to Haven Academy or one of its sister academies in the other kingdoms.

* "Duke" is a shade of Blue.
* "Zilar" is a Basque name meaning "Silver."

### Miscellaneous

* Duke would have appeared in a story about Team BRUT as an antagonist.

Julian Henley

**Julian Henley** is the founder of the global charity organisation, *Oasis Support*. He ran the organisation along with his wife, Natalie. Julian appeared in the episode “A Charitable Deed” (S09E13), where he was a suspect in his wife’s murder.

Julian murdered his wife because it was revealed that Natalie married Julian simply for his wealth. Natalie embezzled money from the organisation’s donation funds. This caused people, such as Lisa Carroll, to theorize that Julian was a fraud and that he was using the money for his own benefit.

Angered for being wronged, for his organisation to be wronged, and the aim of his work to be wronged, Julian broke down and meticulously planned Natalie’s murder. He planned the murder to take place during the charity ball, to make it seem like Julian was the main target and that Natalie was simply collateral damage. Julian had set up a sniper rifle on the glass roof and planted casings to make it appear as if the shots originated from the sniper rifle. The actual murder weapon Julian used was the automatic rifle he placed in the ventilation of the service room, which was bellow the glass roof. During the ball, while Julian and Natalie were dancing, the automatic rifle shot Natalie dead while Julian was left unharmed.

However, Edwin Goodman, who happens to be Julian’s close friend, deduced Julian as the culprit through the position the sniper rifle is in – the window was opened ajar, the glass did not shatter because the killer did not want the glass to shatter, because the shot did not originate from the sniper rifle, but at the service room. Edwin also revealed that Julian was not a killer at heart, but rather only wanted to do what was right (although Julian thought killing his wife for embezzlement was right). Julian admitted to murdering Natalie Henley and he was eventually arrested.
Knothole

* Main Courtyard
* Grand Hall
* East Courtyard

**Knothole** is a settlement and the domicile of the Lincoln Clan, situated in the region of Bijozakura, to the far east of the continent of Anima.

## History

Knothole was erected hundreds - possibly thousands - of years ago by the founding members of the Lincoln Clan. Since then it has been ruled over by the Lincoln clan, marrying between other marsh clans such as the Mangroves and Garlands.

Knothole is claimed to be impenetrable, but since the Lincoln Clan warred with Mistral they seemingly became complacent and did not evolve their technology to defend from future invasions thanks to their lack of involvement with the outside world. Due to this, it was extremely easy for the technologically advanced Braith family to quickly overrun the citadel with only three humans and a squad of androids.

## Layout

Knothole is a citadel of sorts - a humble village surrounded by the great grey walls of a fortress. The main point of entry is through a guarded gate, which leads into an open courtyard containing the entrance to the castle as well as several cottages in which peripheral members of the Lincoln clan presumably live.

At the center of the castle, at least one storey up, is the Grand Hall, where the Lord usually resides to receive guests and where feasts are held. Branching off from the Grand Hall are west and east wings - the latter of which leads to a side courtyard and gate.

## Known Residents

	+ Roderick Lincoln *(fate unknown)*

## Trivia

* A Knothole is defined as a hole in a piece of timber where a knot has fallen out, or in a tree trunk where a branch has decayed.
* Knothole's name is a vague reference to Nottingham, sites in real-world Nottinghamshire being key locations in the tale of Robin Hood, who Robin Lincoln alludes to. Lilliana Lincoln also alludes to the Sheriff of Nottingham.
Mina Rundstrom

She wears a brown and blue corset over a lighter brown halter-neck top, under which she wears a white short-sleeved, low-cut shirt. She also wears dark brown pants, and brown gloves and boots. Most notable is her blue scarf, which hangs over one shoulder.

### Semblance

## Trivia

### Colour Naming Rule

* "Mina" means "azure, enamel" in Persian.
* "Rundstrom" derives from the Swedish *rund* meaning "round" and *ström,* meaning "stream".
Aurelia Besart

## Aurelia Besart File:Aurelia Symbol.png

* Current
* Original

**Aurelia Besart**is a student from Haven Academy and a member of Team MOCA. Her team is comprised of Miyuki Yamasaki, Oren Ashworth and Chrislaure Charbonneau.

She is the twin sister of Blaine Besart.

## Appearance

Aurelia is a fair-skinned girl of average height, with light blue eyes and pale blonde hair which is tied tightly at the back but leaves her bangs to hang loose.

## Personality

Aurelia Besart is perhaps the most promising second-year student at Haven Academy. Well trained, focused and adept, she sits at the top of the class in almost every subject and her strengths more than make up for her team’s shortcomings.

Such accomplishment has led Aurelia to become stoic and somewhat impatient with her teammates, but this only inspires a desire to improve their grades so that they can live up to their full potential.

Aurelia has always been a hard worker, determined to provide for her family and make them proud from a young age - especially as her parents are partially retired huntsmen. Her brother may have inherited all the raw talent, but Aurelia was gifted with her parents’ determination - allowing her to hone herself into the prime specimen of a huntress-in-training.

Aurelia once expressed romantic interest in Robin Lincoln and the two got together when Robin's relationship with Aurelia's twin brother ended.

## Powers and Abilities

### Weapon

Preferring to use a weapon that is more precise than outright brutal, Aurelia wields a sabre named Auricula, the blade of which can be imbued with dust for elemental attacks.

### Semblance

Aurelia’s semblance, "Diligence", allows her to focus all her energy on a goal, meaning that she cannot be distracted, which is particularly useful for study and training.

Thankfully, her sense of morality will prevent her from going too far if potential methods of achieving her cause would slip into the unethical.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Aurelia is based on Goldmarie from the fairytale “Frau Holle”, a girl whose hard work is rewarded, while her sister’s laziness is punished.

### Colour Naming Rule

* "Aurelia" is the feminine form of "Aurelius", meaning "golden" or "gilded."
* "Besart" is an Albanian name meaning "Golden Oath."
Heavy Metal

**Heavy Metal** is Irving Hawthorne's semblance.

Using it, he is able to turn parts or all of his body to an indestructible metallic substance.

## Description

Irving's semblance allows him to transform any part of his body into an indestructible alloy at the cost of mobility, providing even more devastating attacks than usual if he transforms his fist or foot while punching or kicking.

When using his semblance, Irving does not seem to take damage or feel pain. This can be overcome, however - for example, Bister using her own semblance to reinforce her semblance four times over allowed her to overpower Irving's own punch.

## Trivia

* He spent a lot of time attempting to consciously influence and unlock his semblance, but eventually gave up until he discovered it naturally.
Daniel Milligan

**Dr. Daniel Milligan** was a young aspiring doctor from *St. Paul’s Hospital*. He had a sister, Claire, who works in the hospital as a nurse.

	+ Corona Venus
		- Aelius Garland - Heir Apparent to Laurelboros

		- Aries Garland

### Other Garlands

* Artemis Garland - Twin sister of Apollo, married into the Lincoln Clan.
* Hermes Garland - Younger brother of Apollo and Artemis.
* Hestia Garland - Younger sister of Apollo, Artemis and Hermes.

## Trivia

* Laurelboros is derived from the plant bay laurel, wreaths of which are a symbol of honor and victory, and Ouroboros, an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon eating its own tail.
	+ This suggests the Garland Clan's symbol is a laurel wreath and an ouroboros.
Construction District

The **Construction District** is a part of the city of Vale that remains to be finished or was left derelict. Judging by Irving Hawthorne's statement that his father (who is on the council) neglects the downtown portion of the city, it is possible the construction zone may yet be finished but has been neglected.

## RAIN Comic

During the events of the comic, Team RAIN is directed to the Construction District by Raleigh Radcliff, who suggests that a member of Bister's Gang may have knowledge regarding the whereabouts of Otso Umber.

During a confrontation with the gang, Team RAIN manages to outsmart the four girls and diffuse the situation. To get rid of the team Bister, the leader of the group, tells her companion Blanche to tell them where Otso Umber is. Blanche reveals that Otso is her grandfather and is hiding on the island of Silva. Bister then tells Team RAIN they have the information they were looking for and says they should leave, but promises a rematch at a later date.
Horace Ashworth

**Horace Ashworth** is a huntsman from Mistral and a former member of Team MARS. His weapon of choice is a hobby horse with a thin, short axe head built into the length of the snout.

## Appearance

Horace is a tall man, with greenish-brown hair and green eyes. He wears a pale green collared shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, brown gloves, a dark brown sash around his waist and brown trousers with spring green trim.

## Personality

Horace appears a little more sensitive than his team partner, hurt by Akane's blunt demeanour, but shares in Oxblood's brash showmanship, developing short rhymes based on their names to introduce themselves.

## Abilities and Powers

While not all that smart, Horace is a notably capable huntsman - noted to be in the top five percentile the year his team graduated from Haven Academy. He shares this skill with Oxblood and Makkuro, the latter of whom won a Vytal Tournament.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Horace alludes to the Chinese mythological character "Horse-Face".
	+ His name is formed from the first three and last three letters of 'Horse-Face'
	+ He is an Equine Faunus, his trait being a horse tail.
	+ Horse-Face is commonly bundled with Ox-Head, whom Horace's teammate and work partner Oxblood alludes to.

### Colour Naming Rule

* The name 'Horace' is possibly derived from Latin *hora* meaning "hour, time, season" - "season" in particular reflecting his spring green palette.
* The surname 'Ashworth' means 'Ash Enclosure' in Old English, connecting it to the Ash tree.
	+ His surname suggests he is from the Ashworth Clan, a family much like Robin Lincoln's.
Supercharge

**Supercharge** is the Semblance of Marron Armona.

Marron is able to use her semblance to boost the potency or strength of another person's semblance.

## Description

Marron's semblance has no direct benefit to her, but allows her to boost her allies and make their semblances more powerful. When using it her hands glow orange, the same colour as her aura, and emit a solid sound.

### Supercharge being used on others:

* When fuelled by Marron's semblance, Robin Lincoln's semblance "Fate" allowed her ability to dodge to go from peak human to superhuman.

Marron is also able to use her semblance to unlock aura in those who do not yet have it. This is displayed in both Marina Lincoln, and Wil Lincoln. The potency of her semblance temporarily boosted their auras, allowing Marina to heal a throat wound and Wil to stabilise his aura and unlock his semblance.

## Trivia

* Marron's semblance is inspired by her selflessness and commitment to be strong for her friends.
Becker Drury

**Becker Drury** was one of Farran Hawthorne's high-society friends, seen in the mayor's company a few times. He managed a great deal of produce in the city, mainly food production.

## Appearance

Becker was a tall, middle-aged man with greying brown hair and brown eyes. He had a very thin moustache and beard on his jawline.

He wore a v-necked brown suit with golden trim over a white collared shirt and dark brown tie.

## Trivia

Avon

* Landscape
* Town
* Map

The town of **Avon** is a settlement on the continent of Sanus, falling under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Vale. Its Mayor, Farran Hawthorne, holds a seat on the Vale council.

## History

Avon is one of Sanus’ few surviving settlements outside of its capital city, Vale. Members of the Hawthorne family have historically held the position of mayor, though this is by election not birthright.

Avon suffered somewhat during the Grimm attacks that followed the 40th Vytal Festival, but the Hawthornes were safely secured.

## Geography

Avon is a densely packed town situated on the Bay of Sanus to the southwest of the City of Vale.

Bordered on the northwest by coast and on the southeast by tall walls and cliffs, the town has managed to survive with relative ease compared to other towns located outside of main cities, with the only sensible means of reaching it being by airship or boat.

The town itself is characterised by the large canal that runs through its center.

### Hawthorne Manor

Close to the centre of the town lies Hawthorne Manor, where the illustrious Hawthorne family has lived for generations.

### Lodestar Academy

Avon is also home to Lodestar Academy, a small preparatory huntsman academy. The school only houses up to thirty students at a time due to the town's size and the amount of children desiring to become a huntsman or huntress. Many of its graduates go on to attend Beacon Academy in the capital.

## Trivia

* "Avon" is the Celtic word for "river", referencing the large canal that runs through the center of the town.
Mobile Operatives

The **Mobile Operatives**, or **Mob** **Ops**, are an elite group of Huntsmen and Huntresses from the Atlas Military. Their leader is Wren Honeycutt.

## Description

## Appearance

Conway is a pale-skinned young man of average height, with lime eyes and dirty-blonde hair. He wears a puffy green bomber jacket over a gold hoodie and yellow scarf, yellow gloves and dark green leggings with kneepads.

The prodigal third of four sons, Conway's hockey talents were apparent from a young age. With encouragement from his family he made a name for himself with the Highpoint Hammerheads, but his career was doomed to fail.

A natural born prankster, Conway threw his talent away in favour of playing dirty and using his semblance to trip up the opposition. While this left him disgraced, his tendency to use his hockey stick as a blunt weapon caught the eye of Atlas Academy's faculty.

Though his sporting career was doomed from the start, Conway found his true calling as a huntsman.

## Description

Tyrus Niter

**Tyrus Niter** is a student from Atlas Academy and the leader of Team TSCN. His team originally consisted of Scoria Flint, Adularia Chalk and Nitro Gin; after Nitro's death during the fall of Beacon, the fourth place in the team was taken up by Tyrus's younger sister Nepheline.

## Character

Though he may be one of Atlas Academy’s most proficient students, Tyrus was not born in the kingdom proper. He hails from Stenbrott, a mining town situated south-west along the coast from the city of Vale.

Tyrus’ parents separated when he was only a boy - his mother disappeared to Atlas, and his father became deeply ill not long after. His mother gone and father bedridden, Tyrus was left to look after his younger sister Nepheline - over whom he is extremely protective.

Though his past is rocky, Tyrus never lost his charm. He’s an extremely personable young man who makes friends easily, and is much more laid-back than his sister - the definition of “going with the flow” - but this can be a curse as well as a blessing.

## Abilities and Powers

### Weapon

Having learned to use the tools of the mining trade from a young age, it makes sense that Tyrus would be comfortable using one as a weapon. His weapon, Talus, combines a mattock and a mid-range gun.

One of the few things that gets on Tyrus’s nerves is when people call his weapon a ‘Pickaxe.’

### Semblance

Tyrus’s semblance is curious in that he shares it with his sister. Their bond is so strong that their semblance allows them to think as one, sharing strategy, muscle memory and commands at will.

Thankfully, they also possess the ability to close themselves off from the connection - after all, siblings tend to annoy each other.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Tyrus alludes to the brother in the fairytale “Brüderchen und Schwesterchen,” the more impulsive of the two siblings.

### Colour Naming Rule

* "Tyrus" derives from “Tyre”, meaning “Rock”, the same root as “Tyrian purple".
* "Niter" is a white mineral.

## Media

### First Appearance

Page 313

**Orion Lincoln** is the Lord of Knothole. Head of the Lincoln Clan, Orion is the father to Robin Lincoln and her siblings, and husband to Artemis Garland.

## Appearance

Orion is a middle-aged man of average height with a dark beige skin tone, his brown hair greying at certain points. He has pronounced cheekbones and a long, weathered face, his orange eyes set fairly deep in his head.

He wears a green cloak over a brown-grey shirt jacket and white undershirt, sandy brown trousers, and dark brown bracers, boots and belt. Unlike most Lincolns, he does not wear fingerless gloves.

## Personality

Orion is a well-respected marcher lord and big game hunter from eastern Anima. He keeps up appearances in public with his family to command respect but is softer and more caring in private.

Orion is a very proud man, as well as very devout. He expresses disdain for Akane Amaranth's views and appearance, and is visibly shocked when she shows no knowledge of the Lincolns' faith system.

Though he attempts to act stalwart in his decision to exile Robin, he slowly comes around at the behest of his wife, Artemis, with whom he battles competently. Though Robin is technically exiled, he fights honourably beside her and tells her she is a true Lincoln - the woman he always wanted her to be - on his deathbed.

## Abilities and Powers

As a Lincoln, Orion is an extremely capable warrior regardless of his lack of aura. He is a keen hunter, and has a vast knowledge of the eastern swamps of Anima.

He also holds a seat on the Mistral council, but this is only truly a formality.

### Weaknesses

Orion does not possess aura, so any damage sustained is instant and does not heal very quickly.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Orion alludes to the mythological Greek hunter of the same name.
	+ Orion Lincoln's weapon, Orion's Belt, reflects the series of stars that form part of the Orion constellation.
	+ Orion hunted with Artemis on Crete; Orion Lincoln is married to Artemis Garland whom he hunts with.

### Colour Naming Rule

* "Orion" may be derived from Akkadian *Uru-anna* meaning "light of the heavens".
* His nickname, "Ori", means 'my light' in Hebrew.

* Orion's surname references Lincoln green, the colour worn by Robin Hood.

LLAC/Rosario Garland

**Rosario Garland** is a citizen of Mistral City and the girlfriend of Lillian Armilde. She currently lives with her parents and younger twin siblings over her father's restaurant, the *Dulcinea*.

## Appearance

Rosario is a young woman with olive skin, turquoise eyes and long brown hair tied in a half bun. She often wears a light pink short-sleeved shirt knotted below her chest, exposing her stomach, along with faded denim jeans held up by a white cloth belt.

## Personality

Rosario has a jovial and carefree nature, and is very open and outgoing. However, she acts responsibly despite her laid-back attitude, helping her parents run their restaurant in her downtime from school.

She does not appear to have a strong affinity towards her Garland heritage, as she refers to the clan's current leader (her uncle) in disparaging terms.

## Abilities and Powers

Rosario does not have any apparent combat prowess, though her Aura is unlocked.

## Trivia

### Allusion

* Rosario alludes to Enchanted Moura, a supernatural being from Galician fairy tales renowned for her beauty.
	+ Enchanted Moura's seductive nature is reflected in Rosario's flirtatious attitude towards Lillian.

### Colour Naming Rule

* Rosario's given name means "rosary" in Spanish and Italian, from the Latin *rosārium* which refers to a garland of roses.
* Her surname means "triangle land" from the Old English *gara* and *land*.
	+ It can also refer to a wreath of flowers.

### Miscellaneous

* Her father Hidalgo was an alumnus of Haven Academy, and a peer of Team SYBR.
* Her status as a legitimate member of the Garland Clan is questionable, as she was born outside the clan's settlement and has an unlocked Aura.
* Through her mother Hestia's side of the family (the younger sister of Artemis Garland), she is a cousin of Robin Lincoln, the primary protagonist of the *Team RAIN* comic.
