# Sol

Kinley is a human girl with pale white skin that can burn easily if exposed to too much sunlight. Before manifesting her Gigantism Affinity, she had grown to be 6'0" / 183 cm and weigh 151 lb / 68.5 kg. After the Affinity's manifestation, her growth was extended past its natural state, and now she is 7'1" / 216 cm and weighs 261 lb / 118.4 kg. She has an athletic build due to her dedication to exercising and training her skills with the sword, and has a slightly narrow body frame relative to her height, which givers her a sort of willowy silhouette.

The color of Kinley's eyes were originally that of a dull pale green, but now the left one has changed for the exotic due to her acquisition of the Left Eye of Lōr-Eloi. Now the iris has a larger, dark purple outer ring, and a thinner bright orange inner ring. In addition to the iris color change, underneath the eye, covering the majority of her cheek, is a tattoo which is an inscription of Agemist runes which are linked to her eye. Her hair remains as it has always been though, golden blonde in it's color, with a style of messy bangs and being slightly wavy. During her apprenticeship under Olein, Kinley was forced to cut it short and keep it that way for the duration until she completed it, at which point she grew it out back to length of having it down to the middle of her back.

## **Equipment**

### Flumz Turn

* Flum's Turn
* Flamel's Term
* Flame's Thorn

An enchanted stick wielded as a blade. Kinley's specific version of this weapon is attuned to her release ability and can withstand extreme heat. When heat is released from within the magical stores of the stick, it can become white hot for a brief period of time and slice through most things with ease. The stick retains it's shape completely while in it's superheated state, which includes its razor sharp edges. Due to the high durability of this weapon, in combination with the heated bursts, this weapon can be used to destroy an opponents weapon as well. This weapon is often referred to as the lightning blade to those who know of it due to the brief but almost blindingly bright flashes of blue-white light coming from the flames surrounding the blade during its superheated state. The flashes burn so brightly that it actually has a reputation for leaving orange lines on the vision of those who are near as temporary after images.

### Fridz burn

* Frede's Burr
* Free Bird
* Freezer Burn

An enchanted needle point dagger in the shape of a cross. Absorbs and stores heat within itself from the things it touches, whether through the handle or the blade. Flanbur can be connected into Flamgōr, and then the heat is transferred between the stores within Flanbur and is able to be released all at once from the blade of Flamgōr.

### Burn Bright Goggles

Upon developing her battle technique of superheating her blade, Kinley had a pair of goggles made which had special apertures which could open and close independently from one another upon detecting whether the eye was closed or open. This independence between the two goggles allows Kinley to protect her normal eye while taking advantage of the abilities of her new left eye, which require it to be open and focusing in on the target. Fortunately, the Eyes of Lōr-Eloi are immune to brightness and darkness.

During her teen years, Kinley was a fan of HEMA (Historical European Marital Arts), and practiced it for a duration of 5 years, 14 - 19 years old. At the age of 19, Kinley went through the reality tear along with her companion Ruth, and dropped into this universe as result. After establishing their presence within the local land, while Ruth pursued the path of ranged ability usage, Kinley trained under the master of a society of sword maidens, Olein, and became one of them.

## **Affinities**

Note: After entering this universe, the affinities which she would normally be born with if she was naturally from this world manifested themselves.

### [ Tier 2 Gigantism ]

This is an affinity which grants the user an extra 20% growth to their height, proportionally increasing their weight, and ignoring the square cube law in regards to their durability and strength, which allows them to function at the same healthiness, agility, etc, as if they were their original height. For specifics, while this means that they are 20% taller, they are both 73% heavier as well as have bones and muscles which are also 73% stronger pound for pound.

## **Abilities**

### [ Dryadic Armor Transmutation ]

This is an ability that allows the user to transform any part of their their skin into dryadic wood, as well as the muscle and even bone underneath if they are powerful and skilled enough with this ability. It grants a higher resistance to both slashing and blunt damage, as well as mitigating the pain of injury to the armored location. This higher durability can be used for offensive measures, not just in defense, as it allows the user to strike with more force and less risk of self injury.

However, wounds which are taken to the armored location which is returned to the natural state will stay. The way to avoid this is to keep the armor activated and take advantage of it's accelerated healing. In exchange for the faster healing though, the user's strength and vitality will be drained. An additional thing to look out for with this ability, is that the longer the armor is activated in a region, the stiffer it will become, both the stretchability, as well as the joint flexibility if one is covered by the armor at the time.

### [ Left Eye of Lōr-Eloi ]

This replaces the user's natural left eye. The new eye has a large dark purple ring on the outer part of the iris and a bright orange ring on the inner part of the iris. The sclera and pupils remain their natural colors. This eye passively grants the user the ability to see all forms of light while using it, as well as being able to see through a single solid layer. Specifically the eye will allow the user to see up to 2 meters into a solid, and if the solid is thinner than 2 meters, will be able to see beyond it as if it were simply glass.

This eye also has an active ability. It can lock onto a target, and when it does, it grants the user the ability to have their attacks which aim at the target strike true. For melee, the strike will be as if it is magnetically pulled toward the target, and if the target attempts to flee, will pull the user along with the weapon further toward the target. For projectiles, the projectile will be as if is they became highly agile heat seeking missiles, relentlessly pursuing the target until they make contact. In addition to this tracking phenomenon, for a brief moment as this part of the ability is activated, the user's personal time line will expand a bit, allowing them a moment in where all else is frozen while they are still able to move.

# Trivia

* Kinley's sword master & teacher, Olein, has a Tier 3 Gigantism Affinity, which is the cause of her abnormal height of 7' 2" / 218 cm , but it also means her natural height would've been 30% shorter (5' 6" / 168 cm), which is significantly shorter to Kinley's natural height of 5' 11" / 180 cm.
* Kinley's Spirit Animal is that of a white raven.
