Kotori Aballet

**Kotori Aballet** is a healer in the Azure Stars guild, and is the tenth and final member to join. Her country of origin and details of her past are shrouded in mystery, but it is known she knew Findaris from before and they had a souring of relationship towards the end, leading to his severe mistrust in her. Regardless, she has proven her worth both as a healer and combatan to the Azure Stars, and become a vital component to the guild.

## Appearance

**Kotori** is described as having a very womanly, almost-voluptuous build, with an ample chest, well-defined curves but a delicate face with soft features. She has porcelain white skin and "delicate, beautiful" features according to both Sean and Nat's evaluation on her. Her ample chest is often the butt-end of jokes, being in complete contrast to Andrea's flat chest. She sports long brown hair with some braiding, but generally untied and bangs on her forehead. Her eyes are grey, and can either be "cold as steel" or contain more warmth than one would expect.

Despite all of this, Kotori chooses to dress inconspicuously to avoid grabbing attention, wearing long, loose and modest robes that one would expect from a healer, preferring the colours of midnight blue and purple. At the same times, these give her the look of a dignified and elegant lady, which suit her outward image quite well. She usually only travels with a pouch of potions and her trusty staff, since her twin whip-swords were confiscated by Findaris.

## Personality

A very worried-but-silly mother figure in the guild, she has a habit of fretting or getting worked up by small details, including constantly worrying about others' health and also their opinions of her. Due to what happened in the past between them and her apparently unrequited feelings for him, she is always very careful around Finrod and tries to keep quiet, though her excitement breaks through at times. She is a very honest and straightforward person, something about her that has never changed, though is also hesitant to critique anyone due to her anxiety and optimism.

Her sense of justice is very strong, as are her morals, and no rules nor any persuasion comes above that. That was not always the case, since it is known or implied she served under Wrath once, but her reasons are unknown entirely, as are her reasons for abandoning that allegiance. One of her key traits has always been her uncertainty in situations, being bad at making decisions, and also being quite clumsy.

It is also known she is quite terrible at cooking, and the guild members avoid her cooking as much as they can, a fact that seems to sting her and her already seemingly low self-esteem. Despite all of this, during a medical emergency or when the question is about her guild-mates' health or safety, she is fiercely protective, as shown when she convinced Findaris to lower his punishment on Sean in **Arc 6**, and then also brewing medicine for the sickly Sean.

She can be quite girly and childish sometimes, though she tries to suppress it. All of her uncertainty goes away in battle, where she is very confident in both her defensive and offensive skills, moving lithely and elegantly while disposing of her enemies without fear or remorse.

She likes **cheesecake** and **cooking** (despite being bad at it).

She has expressed dislike for **alcohol** and **evil creatures.**

## Equipment

**Priestess Robes:** Standard garb for a healer; long, loose and modest robes with mild magical protection on them.

**Whip-Swords:** A set of twin blades that can elongate to serve as whips.

**Healing Staff:** Her main tool that she uses to channel and focus her mana through, allowing her to cast her spells.

**Potions:** Kotori carries a small pouch with a handful of healing, strength, stamina etc. potions.

## Abilities

**Kotori** is powerful in both defence and offence, something that is strange for a healer. As per her class description, she is good at all forms of defensive spells, healing, anti-poison spells as well as giving temporary stats boosts to her allies. While quite good for a healer, these are all regular class-skills, and what sets her apart is the mysterious ability to apply all of these spells on herself, something that healers are known to be unable to do. This, coupled with her proficiency at wielding whip-swords, makes her an offensive threat as well.

**Self-Modification:** Unique skill, it is unknown how Kotori has acquired it. It increases all her physical stats by 50%. Also allows her to heal herself and use Blessing (50% increase to luck) on herself, both unique to her.

**Advanced Healing:** Level 9

**Dexotify**

**Barrier**

**Buff Strength**

**Buff Endurance**

**Buff Agility**

**Blessing**

**Resurrect**
