Ines Santos

**Ines Santos**, also known as **Magical Girl Bubble Blast**, is a member of Team Bubble.

## Physical Appearance

Ines is rather short, even for her age, though she carries herself with enough spunk to make up for it. She has brown skin, orange eyes and wavy orange hair which generally comes down to around her neck. Her sigil appears on her right eyelid.

As Magical Girl Bubble Blast, she wears a pilot's hat and goggles, a pilot's jacket that is always slightly too big for her, and a dress with a tiered skirt. She wears heavy combat boots which also seem slightly too big, though none of her costume is ever too big to affect her fighting. Her hair tends to pull into her cap and be a bit shorter. She sometimes wears the goggles down, but usually wears them up when she's not using them.

## Personality

Ines has a strong sense of justice and believes in doing the right thing no matter what. She will fight when she thinks someone is doing wrong, and often stands in the way of what she believes is wrong.

She likes to play tricks on her friends, like when she set Felicity up on a blind date without telling her. Despite her fun-loving nature, she does really care about people around her, and does a lot of what she does because she wants them to be happy.

Ines is a big fan of retired magical girls, specifically teams like Team Sparkle and Team Wild who have one or more retired team members. She also plays Magical Girl Power Battle, though her Team Wild deck is only legal in the Legacy format.

## History

Ines was born on the same day as her twin sister, Ariceli Santos, and the two grew up their entire lives together. They live with their mother, who cares for them greatly.

After Aricelli joined MAGICS, the Magical Adult Girl Intervention and Counseling Services, Ines also started helping out there every so often. She doesn't go as often as her sister, but she tries to contribute as well as she can.

After her best friend, Felicity Chance, became a magical girl, Ines followed shortly after. Despite everyone expecting them to be thematic, they were not, but that didn't stop them from forming a nonthematic team, Team Bubble. Since then they have worked together, generally trying to cover areas that are not generally patrolled by others.

## Powers

Ines's main power is to summon bombs. She can summon bombs with variable fuse lengths, generally timed out in seconds. There doesn't seem to be a hard limit to the number she can have summoned at once, but they will blow up when the fuse runs out. The physical bombs themselves are incredibly tough on the outside, but after exploding they are always destroyed, vaporizing into nothing. She can also extend the fuses long enough to swing the bombs around like flails or to help her throw them further.

When fighting with Felicity, she can launch the bombs a great distance using Felicity's gum as a slingshot. They spent a lot of trial and error developing this technique.

She also has improved eyesight, able to see further away than normal with great clarity. Generally when taking advantage of this power, Ines will lower her goggles over her eyes, though it's not clear if this is required or not.
