Rochelle

Like mummy says, it seems I'm unfashionably late!
― Rochelle

The Fully Recognized Witch

## Appearance

### Casual

Comfy styled attire, jeans, pants, slacks, with a simple shirt is more or less her way to go. Rochelle enjoys wearing loose fitting clothes as well when she isn't trying to dress up on a day out in the streets of New York! Her red hair is braided into two long pig tails that hang a bit loose past her shoulders. Braided into her hair is a blue ribbon with her name along it, and her graphic make up is another reason why she stands out, she loves to make an entrance.

### Combat

Rochelle's style is similar to that of her mother's. She too wields four guns that are tied to her twin Madamas, collectively known as Madama Libris. In her Demon Masquerade form, she has a shadow-like clone mimicking her previous moves, which some could attribute to an old Accessory once forgotten. When using her wicked weaves, the right fist and heel are attired with black clothing, whearas her left side is attired with white clothing. Rochelle has multiple other weapons that she can rely on, but nothing feels more comfortable to her than her quartet of 6 barreled pistols known as 'Last Kiss'

## Personality

Rochelle's personality is confident and strong. Of course she has underlying insecurities, but she doesn't try to let them be known. Overall she makes it clear that when she wants something, she will strive for it without hesitation, and will do whatever it takes to be the best at something. She is a people pleaser to a degree. Nothing is more important to her than her mother, and she will do anything to make her proud.

## Abilities

### Physical

Rochelle is equipped with the basics a young witch would get making a pact with a Demon like her Madamas, along with super speed, strength, agility, endurance, durability, and knowledge. She was already an intelligent individual prior to forging a covenant with Madama Libris, but being a scholar no longer compares to her being a Demon/Angel killing machine!

### Magical

Rochelle has a lot of the standard magic capabilities that come with being an Umbra Witch.

#### Summoning

Rochelle is capable of summoning powerful Demons, ranging from Gomorrah and the Little Devils, all the way down to Madama Libris, and many others. She can also summon weapons and torture devices against Angels.

## Trivia

* Rochelle would technically be considered a Viola Variant. But not necessarily due to the name differences.
* Rochelle was created almost a year before Viola's reveal, as well as the Multiverse of Bayonetta was established, making her one of the original variants (Non-canonically).
* Rochelle's mother and father are Bayonetta and Luka variants. However, they respectively do not hold the same value that Bayonetta and Luka hold as Arch-Eve and Arch-Adam. Instead, these titles are bestowed upon Rochelle and Elliot in Rochelle's universe.
	+ Elliot is considered the Luka of Universe β20, despite Luka's existence in that universe.
* β20 is A very skewed universe. Bayonetta was never the left eye, and Luka was born centuries in the past as part of the Lumen Sages. Additionally, Bayonetta, Hilda, Ophelia, Rochelle, Zira, and Jeanne are the last of the remaining Umbra Witches in Universe β20.
* In Universe β20 Rochelle has faced one of the many Multiverse counterparts of Singularity, however due to how many witches were still around in her universe they perservered against him.
* There is a Universe somewhat arallel to β20, known as β295. In this Universe, however, Rochelle and her close friends and family did perish to Singularity, with Rochelle being the last Witch standing. However, thanks to Bayonetta freeing most of her many counterparts from Singularity's clutches, there is a possibility that β295 was restored along with all the other Universes that he has managed to destroy in the past.
