## History

Brummadsaya was once a Rall living in Lejira, working as a servant in a lavish palace. She was sold into illegal slavery by her parents in order to pay off a debt to a shady Lobune, Ansar Medri, who treated her poorly while she worked for him as his first wife. Ansar was a lackey for Goren Vagri, a black world kingpin who has near complete control of the Glistanan drug market.

Like Ansar's other wives, Brumma was sent to a special training facility owned by Goren. There she was forced to train in espionage, poisoning, and assassination, as well as forced to develop her affinity into something deadly. It was at this training facility that Brumma learned Dagoma's Cords. Over time, running Ansar's and Goren's assassinations for them and being treated extremely poorly, and seeing how the government turned a blind eye to anyone with money, Brumma developed radical views on power and politics and saw most people in power as greedy dogs that only cared about money.

## Abilities

### Dagoma's Cords

At Goren's illegal training facility, Brummadsaya was able to awaken her energy and learn Dagoma's Cords, an art born from the application of potential energy to the dark affinity. This art allows her to create pale lavender ropes of varying thickness that defy the physics of space-time. She is able to use this art to complete feats such as generateing a thin string right at someones neck for a discrete assassination, as well as using thick cords to wrangle beasts from other planets and bringing them to Nion.

Using Velatha Minnin's sound art, Brumma is able to communicate across vast distances using her art. Brumma first creates a string that appears both next to her and next to the target she wants to communicate with, Velatha then uses her sound art to allow the two strings to relay voices through them. Brumma uses this system to communicate with her agents across the Glistanan continent.

After the death of her older sister, Amy Bastion, Hellys became very aware of her own imminent demise from the curse of ruin. Desperate to find a cure, she discreetly searched for anyone who could help her legally or even illegally. Ghost reached out to her, having known about her for some time, and offered help in exchange for the allegiance of House Lacera. Hellys and Byakko then learned of Ghost's plan, and agreeing with it, decided to swear loyalty to him.

Byakko was aware that Ghost could help cure Hellys' curse, but is unaware of how he cured it. Ghost gave Hellys knowledge of the location of the Lunar Monument, which "cleansed" her of her own energy and bestowed upon her the lunar art. Not only did it remove here curse, curing her but also not allowing her to access any of the ruin releases, but it removed her of her light affinity as well.

## Abilities

### Lunar Art

Hellys has acquired knowledge of the lunar art, an ancient Tynar art with immense abilities, through her allegiance with Ghost.

### Techniques

* **Tidal Pressure -** Hellys places her hand on something/someone, drastically increasing the effect of gravity on her target and causing them to get forcefully pushed down, forming a crater around them. She usually uses this on opponents by placing her hand on someone's shoulder but can use it on objects as well and has been seen using it to tear down doors/walls.
* **Lunar Cycle -** Hellys is able to use her art as movement enhancement that not only lets her float in the air but is also able to increase her speed drastically for short distances. While she is able to float, Hellys is unable to fly at fast speeds; the dash ability of this technique is incredibly fast, but only for a short distance.

### Combustion Manipulation

Gryfen mixes his fire, lightning, and potential affinities to create Combustion Magic. This magic can be used to create explosions on contact. This magic has the appearance of brilliant golden flames with white lightning jumping throughout it.

### Perfect Counter

This special ability Gryfen has is caused by Gryfen keeping a thin layer of his magic applied to his armor. This ability causes any melee hit that touches him to be countered with an explosion of equal force. This nullifies the effect of the hit, but forces him to have to use his magic to guard against the force of an explosion so close to him.

### Techniques

* **Igne -** Gryfen creates a sword out of pure combustion magic. The blade resembles a long broadsword with a large ring in between the hilt and the blade. On both sides of the ring there are spikes. Since the sword is made from his magic, each hit from any part of the blade delivers an explosion on contact. Gryfen usually uses two Igne swords to fight.
* **Mars Cannon -** Gryfen points his finger forward like a gun and fires a supersonic combustion magic blast towards the target. It is a thin laser like blast that can be used to cut objects.
* **Mars Mortar -** A technique similar to the Mars Cannon. The magic projectile charges at his fingertip for a longer period of time, but causes an explosion on impact.
* **Mars Howitzer -** This technique is similar to Mars Mortar and requires Gryfen to use both hands. He fires a volley of Mars Mortars at supersonic speeds towards the target, decimating the area.
* **Mars Flash Grenade -** This technique is similar to the Mars Cannon, except the magic projectile explodes on contact into a bright flash of light.
* **Brilliant Aegis -** This causes Gryfen's magic to visibly rage around hit body, giving him an electrical aura as well. This greatly increases Gryfen's speed and strength, and also causes his explosions to become more devastating.
* **Planet Cracker -** Gryfen creates a large ball of Combustion Magic, and then condenses it into a small ball floating above the palm of his hand. He then fires it, and once it makes contact it releases a ginormous explosion, accompanied by a solar blast that hits the target.

### Dead Root

A mix of his earth and dark affinities, the dead root art allows Crucius to generate and manipulate thin, branching, root-like tendrils that are able to sap the life of living things and convert it into energy for Crucius to use. While the conversion is already a very small percentage gain, Crucius gets even less energy the more complex the organism and the more energy resistance it has, being pretty much neutral with the energy drain of the technique if he tries to sap anything sentient. This still drains their life energy though and so it is still considered useful, but Crucius typically sticks to draining the life energy of plants and small bugs, as they give him the best yield.

## Abilities

### Body Modification: Voxefera

This body modification allows the user to generate a substance that amplifies sound waves, creating devastating attacks if trained correctly. The reason that it is so coveted is that the user is also able to shape environmental substances into Voxefera pillars for use in spatial techniques, something nearly unheard of and considered well out of the normal bounds of a body modification. Serela's Voxefera takes the shape of white pillars with black lines in them, but are thinner than normal. Her skills with this technique are extremely fine tuned, and one feature of her art that denotes this skill is the quality of the music that is amplified by her pillars.

She has in her inventory multiple anti-air guns, ground to air missile silos, and even an robotic tank from Bellaxandor Mink's illegal weapon manufacturing company.
	+ **Grand Relay -** By using relay towers positioned around Wrathmire, Ophia is able to utilize a powerful guided missile strike with a large missile stored in a remote location. However, being able to control such a fast object so far away quickly drains her energy.
* **Energy Sensor -** Ophia creates a transparent screen that allows her to see the power levels of her opponents. The screen is able to read the electric currents of the energy around someone and converts it to a numerical value.
* **Colossal Spike -** Ophia creates a huge spike of glass jutting into the air that is able to pierce airships. This technique requires a large amount of her energy however.
* **Bloodhound Tracking -** Ophia shoots her target with Bloodhound, and is able to create a screen and track her target using the glass fragments left in them, While she is able to track her targets from considerable distance and for quite a long time, they do slowly wear off due to conflict with the target's energy.
* **Shattering Strikes -** Ophia creates rough rods of glass and strikes her opponents with them, shattering them on her opponents. As the shards of glass fly through the air, she causes them to come back towards the opponent, slicing them from all angles. Before the opponent is able to react she is already striking with another glass rod.
* **Taser Shards -** Ophia sends multiple shards of glass at an opponent that will electrocute them on impact.

## History

Mesalesal is managing a running contract of trading illegal weapons to Loaloa Winnenloga, minister of citizens, for an upcoming rebellion in Entarai.

## Equipment

### Gallagna

Though having no art of his own, Mesalesal is currently in possession of Gallagna, the Hhrokin Machina. Gallagna is a powerful, yet wildly unstable machina with a cruel and sadistic personality. Gallagna has the appearance of an all gold, mannequin-like, female upper body coming out of the body of a centipede; The face has slits for eyes and it has an extremely long black tongue and long black hair. The underbelly of the centipede-like lower body has a cavity that is filled with dozens of extendable bladed appendages, as well as a collection of smaller, mannequin like heads with grotesque faces carved into horrifying expressions. The mannequin-like upper body of Gallagna contains a sophisticated catalytic converter that is able to break down certain proteins to produce a cancerous dark purple sludge that consumes a person the more they use their energy, Gallagna typically acquires the raw materials she needs by consuming the spines, heart, and livers of her victims. She is able to fire this sludge from her mouth as well as coat her extremely long tongue which she can use as a whip. Being a Hhrokin machina, Gallagna is machina that has an affinity, the tortured soul that is bound to its core had the dark affinity, and Gallagna was trained in the terror art.

### Gallagna's Restraint

Mesalesal is also in possession of Gallagna's restraint, an item that Mesalesal fashioned when he first obtained the machina from Bellaxandor. The restraint is essentially a remote handle that Mesalesal can use to activate chains that where added to ports placed on Gallagna's back.

Haxel Aliker

Haxel Aliker is a true golem that belongs to Steis Tauranik, who purchased it from the Sumeca brothers. This golem is known as Steis's dagger and is his assassination tool.

## Abilities

### Exorcism Art

Haxel has developed the dark affinity into the exorcism art. With this, it can send it's shadow towards another shadow and directly attack the soul of a person. While this art was developed in order to deal with demons and those they possess, the art is effective on any person's soul and whatever may be bonded to their soul.

### Static Manipulation

Static manipulation focuses on the acute control of the lightning affinity. With this, users are able to apply more modern techniques with their art, such as using it along with delicate technology. Static can also be used for stealth operations since the properties that allow it to be used delicately also allow it to be used silently.

### Techniques

* **Exorcism -** Haxel sends its shadow towards the target's shadow, which then begins squeezing the target's shadow draining their soul from their body. If allowed to continue until completion, the target will stand facing the sky with only a soulless husk left.
	+ **Triple Exorcism -** Haxel splits its shadow into three, either attacking different targets or all attacking the same target. If they all attack the same target, the soul excursion happens a lot faster.
* **Soul Bargain -** Haxel conjures its shadow and manifests it as a humanoid shape in front of it. It also forcibly conjures the shadow of the target. Haxel then attempts to make a connection between the shadows and if one is made, all damage done to Haxel will be done to the target as well and vice versa.
* **Soul Split -** This technique focuses on severing bonds to the soul of the target. If a clean strike manages to land, it will sever the connection either temporarily or permanently depending on the strength of the bond.
* **Static Confusion -** Haxel emits large amounts of static electricity into the air, surrounding one or multiple targets. The technique is hard to detect and causes the targets to lose the ability to form complete thoughts.
* **Static Paralysis Binding -** By channeling large amounts of static into a target's body and then forming the binding hand symbol Haxel can completely paralyze a target.

## History

Sylvus works as a Peacekeeper in the Ivory Chateau, serving with Wolfein Emzaal in Region 1: Central and Northern Alabasta. The pair are called the sin brothers, as they both fight with one of the Seven Weapons of Sin.

Sylvus feels personally invested in this as his childhood friend was killed by a faulty fire ruby from the black market.

## Equipment

### Greed

Sylvus is in possession of Greed, the 3rd Weapon of Sin. The weapon consists of two golden arm blades that collects the energy of whatever hits them, which can then be released all at once to create devastating blasts of energy.
