River Grantia

* Novel
* Anime

River is the co-protagonist in the Mystical Legends series. She is part of the royal Aquia family of Naiads, however, she is treated unfairly due to her lack of strong magical powers unlike the rest of her family members. She is also part demihuman, making her familial relationships more tense. She is a close companion of Avery Obtainia as she taught him the ways of the Mystical Beings.

## Overview

River Grant attended REGNUM academy the same years as most of the other aspiring students like Avery Obtainia and Caleb Icelander. She is a short shy girl with caramel hair and fox ears.

## Personality

Having little intellect, but great beauty, River Grant's kind and gentle nature attracts many admires, however, her heart was searching for one special person (who later was Avery Obtainia).

Though she may look cute and pretty, she is naturally a shy girl who keeps her ears and face hidden from most people. Adding to the fact that her family disregards her as officially one of theirs, she has few relations and friends who can talk to her normally. Her shyness has also prevented her from being more outgoing and the courage to participate in other school events or activities.

## Powers and Abilities

### Mystical Powers

#### Water

* **Water Affinity**: River, being a Naiad, possesses many traits which allows her to perform tasks that most Mystical Beings cannot do.
	+ **Water Breathing**: One of the most distinct powers for water elementalists is the ability to submerge underwater, absorb the oxygen in the water, and intense pressure resistance. With this ability, River can breathe in most bodies of water, however, this power is weakened to water with poison, hazardous gases, or other liquids.
	+ **Pressure Control**: River can endure a lot of pressure being applied to her. This unique power allows her to swim deep underwater without worrying about being crushed. It also allows her to approach Imo Lordius easily because of his gravity powers having less effect.
	+ **Enhanced Senses**: River's eyes, when responding within dark areas, become more keen and is able to sense slight movements very easily. Her ears are also more effective within water, allowing her to hear normally whereas a non-water Mystical Being and human's senses are reduced in water. Her nervous systems are also activated to sense slight vibration alternations in the water, allowing her to pick up any slight movements.

* **Water Discharge**: Due to her lineage, River has the power to manipulate most water.
	+ **Aqua Jet**: This ability sends a blast of compressed water towards its opponent, however, effectiveness can vary by the magic power level of the user. For instance, if River was at a weakened state, aqua jet would not have enough magic to infuse, thus, limiting the power output.
	+ **Water Wall**: River creates a larges gust of water which either surrounds herself for protection or block enemy attacks.
* **Spiritual Water Discharge**: With blessed divine water from Neptune via some of his spiritual magic, River is able to conjure more powerful water (brighter in appearance) that purifies evil and shadow magic. It also has the capability of minor healing and enhanced resistance.
* **Transformation**: Being a Naiad, River has the ability to alter her body's composition via water. She can will part of her body to transform into water, giving her versatile movements. Her transformation can also prevent most attacks from physically damaging her human body.
