Character Name: Lucia “Mizan” Talec
Character Age: 28
Character Race: Celderatian (Human)
Character Gender: Female
About the Character
Character Personality: Lucia is a very balanced person usually. She is kind, but not naive like her sister, often preferring to guide people to their goals rather than solve the problem for them. Still, she always seems to have time to listen, no matter how busy she is. She isn’t one to just rush in blindly either, instead always preferring to look at the situation from multiple viewpoints to decide the best course of action. She is a born tactician, considering numerous possible outcomes in nearly every situation, and picking the best outcome from them.
Lucia tends to be quiet around strangers, though her natural sass and humor quickly emerge around friends. Once considered stoic and aloof, her newfound confidence after using self-transformation magic to become her true self has led her to become stronger-willed and friendly to those she interacts with.
Despite her tolerance of many things, Lucia’s unique sense of justice is one of her strongest traits. Abuse of power will not be tolerated by her, regardless of rank or station, causing her to deeply distrust most politicians and authority figures. While this has caused trouble in the past, she continues to protect those victimized by the power-hungry and corrupt. This also leads to a near-complete disregard of authority, as she does what she considers right no matter what.
Lucia is fiercely loyal to her friends and, most of all, to her sister Jennifer, the only family she has left. No matter what kind of situation she gets them into, she will work to get them out of it. Her sense of responsibility is so strong that she is occasionally overprotective of Jennifer, despite being 2 years younger than her. Celderat’s destruction was devastating to Lucia, but over the years she has begun to view it as a second chance at living a normal life. After a desperate battle alongside her friends she used the loss and grief to awaken her true powers, allowing her to protect those she cares for.
Character Appearance: Lucia stands far taller than most women, at 6' 4", weighs in at 187 pounds, and has a fit, toned body. She is deceptively slender due to her height, as years of training and combat have given her plenty of muscles, clearly marking her as someone who can hold her own. Her left arm is artificial, created from the same Orichalcum-Mythril alloy as her armor and thus having a violet appearance with gold accents.
Lucia’s eyes are a striking violet, an after effect of her control of Twilight energy, though they do flash red when she’s exceptionally angry or blue when terribly sad. Her hair, once a dark golden blonde, now matches her eyes and reaches just past her shoulders in slight waves. Usually she leaves it free, but when she’s expecting trouble she takes after her sister and puts it into a pony tail.
While on the job she usually wears knee high leather boots over black leggings, a short, loose black skirt, a hot pink shirt with a black cloth vest over it, and black finger-less gloves with metal knuckle guards. When she gets serious in a fight she can summon a set of custom plate armor that covers her entire body other than her left arm, including a helmet that completely covers her face with a clear crystal visor. It is predominantly a deep purple, with gold embellishments and scroll work. When not working she is generally found in bright colored T-shirts, blue jean shorts, and multi-colored running shoes.
Battle Statistics
Character Position: Hero
Character Spells :
Aeroga: Creates a swirling barrier of wind that protects against most projectiles and lowering physical damage by one tier. Lasts for two posts, with a three post cooldown that begins after dissipation.
Aeroga Burst: By using wind magic in a single direction Lucia can maneuver herself or another target in midair to change direction, to leap higher or propel an object. Instant, with a one post cooldown.
Stonega: Allows Lucia to reshape up to three times her volume of earth, stone, metal, or crystal into a barrier or platform. The material must maintain the same volume, and is not more durable than its natural state. The material itself shakes and rumbles for a few seconds before moving. Four post cooldown.
Stonega Armory: Allows Lucia to reshape up to three times her volume of earth, stone, metal, or crystal into up to three weapons and/or modify her armor in minor ways. The material must maintain the same volume, and is not more durable than its natural state. The material itself shakes and rumbles for a few seconds before moving. Four post cooldown.
Waterga: Launches a raging column of water from Lucia’s hand that can put out almost any blaze, magical or not. Anything hit by the column takes light damage and is hit with enough force to push back a normal human 10 feet. Instant, with a two post cooldown.
Blizzaga: Either freezes a nearby body of water, or launches five arm sized shards of ice at up to five targets that deal moderate damage. Cooldown three posts.
Twilight Blast:Lucia launches a three foot wide orb of Twilight at a target that detonates into a ten foot wide explosion that deals moderate damage. Cooldown three posts.
Curaga: Channels magic into up to three targets to heal them fully. Instant, with a four post cooldown.
Character Abilities:
Twilight Augmentation: Lucia can utilize her Twilight to double her strength and speed for two posts. She can also use this ability on an ally. This also increases any damage dealt by the character by one tier (light becomes moderate, moderate becomes heavy, heavy becomes finisher/fatal). Once dissipated, Lucia cannot use this again for two posts.
Imbued Twilight (Passive): Lucia has imbued her armor and left arm with Twilight, making them extremely light and allowing them to nullify the effect of Darkness or Light based attacks. Note that any other aspects of an attack, such as a physical blow, are unaffected, but any damage sustained by the armor or arm is repaired within moments.
Auric Sight (Passive): Lucia can actually see the auras that surround living creatures. This allows her to know the creatures Realm of origin (by how much Light and Darkness show up in the aura), and also shows her where any injuries are. This can also be used to get a glimpse into the mental state of an intelligent being, though Lucia mainly uses this to detect lies. This ability does require line of sight, but allows her to “see” living creatures even in total darkness. Note that Nobodies do not have an aura, as they have no heart. Since acquiring her keyblade, Lucia’s Auric Sight evolved, enabling her to sense Heartless and Nobodies within a half mile of her.
Heart Dive (Passive): Lucia can enter a deep trance in order to Dive to her Heart Platform. On this platform she can communicate with anyone who has a portrait there instantly. She can also use this ability to enter another person’s Heart Platform if she is touching them, and can bring someone else if they appear on the person’s Heart Platform.
Cannon Arm: Lucia’s artificial arm has been fitted with a hidden cannon that can be fired by folding the hand back. The “ball” is actually a concentrated mass of Twilight that detonates on contact into a five foot wide explosion, dealing moderate damage. This also creates enough recoil to be used to maneuver midair or spin quickly. Cooldown two posts.
Rocket Punch: Lucia can launch the fist of her left arm at the speed of a cannonball at a target, dealing moderate damage and also knock back a human-sized target up to ten feet. The hand takes one post to return, but the cannon and shield can both be used during. Cooldown three posts.
Flash Step: Lucia can instantly teleport to a location within eyesight, with a two post cooldown.
Elemental Blade: Lucia can channel pure Light, Darkness, or Twilight into her Keyblade for three posts, causing the blade to deal moderate elemental damage for the duration. Once dissipated, Lucia cannot use this again for two posts.
Elemental Sickle: Lucia can charge her keyblade with Light, Darkness, or Twilight before swinging it at a target to release a sickle of that element that flies out and deals damage as if hit by the blade itself. She can use this up to four times consecutively, and it has a two post cooldown.
Elemental Raid: Lucia can charge her keyblade with Light, Darkness, or Twilight before throwing it in a Strike Raid, causing it to spin through the air and hit up to five targets before returning to her, dealing damage as if she was swinging at them. She can only use this once every two posts.
Elemental Nova: Lucia can charge her keyblade with Light, Darkness, or Twilight before throwing it at a target and releasing it all at once, triggering an explosion of the element used 5 feet across that deals heavy damage. She can only use this once every four posts.
Crystal Genesis: By touching the Requiem's Resolve against a surface, a wave of two feet tall diamond hard spikes erupt in a straight line for ten feet, impaling anything that is above them and dealing moderate damage. The crystals also act as a barrier, capable of withstanding and light or moderate damage, while heavy damage will break them after two hits and finisher/fatal in one. The ground rumbles for a few seconds before the spikes appear, and they disappear after two posts. Once dissipated, Lucia cannot use this again for one post further (total of three post cooldown from activation).
Crystal Rain: With a swing of the Requiem's Resolve Lucia can launch up to ten hand sized shards of crystal at her target which embed themselves in the first thing they hit to deal light damage. These crystals can be imbued with Light, Darkness, or Twilight before launch, which create small explosions of the element upon impact instead, dealing moderate damage. Once used Lucia cannot fire more for two posts, or three if she imbues them with an element.
Crystal Burst: Lucia can create up to three watermelon sized shards of crystal infused with either Light, Darkness, or Twilight and lob them at up to three targets. On contact each shard shatters into five smaller shards which then explode in a combined radius of eight feet per original shard to deal heavy damage. Four post cooldown.
Character Forms/Command Styles:
Aspect of Ragnarok: By drawing in Twilight from her surroundings, Lucia can alter her body and become the embodiment of Twilight for eight posts. In this form, her irises become white and the sclera becomes black. Her hair grows to waist length and becomes partially spiked. Requiem's Resolve disappears, replaced by a blade formed of pure Twilight that deals moderate damage. Also, her speed and strength increase massively, granting her about half the strength of Hercules and a max speed of 120 mph. In this form Lucia gains access to several powerful attacks, although she loses access to her normal skills. Once the Aspect dissolves, Lucia must remain in her normal form for eight posts before transforming again. Using this ends any other effects that may be active.
Twilit Sickle (Aspect only): Lucia can launch up to four sickle shaped blasts of pure Twilight from her blade, which speed towards their target very quickly before exploding in a three yard radius. The blasts deal moderate damage on contact. One post cooldown.
Winds of Twilight (Aspect Only): Lucia channels dense amounts of Twilight and wind magic under her feet before launching herself forward at twice her normal speed in a straight line and slashing at her target. This happens up to four times before the effect ends, dealing heavy damage with each hit. Two post cooldown.
Twilight of the Gods (Aspect Only): Lucia creates a blitzball sized sphere of Twilight before launching it into the air, where it shatters into ten smaller spheres before flying at their targets. Upon contact each of the spheres detonates in a 5 foot wide explosion, dealing heavy damage. Three post cooldown.
End of Twilight (Aspect only): Lucia dismisses her blade, then channels all of her Twilight into a single orb the size of a beach ball. It then is reabsorbed into her right arm, which glows the same color as her normal eyes. Lucia then charges at her target and punches the ground just in front of them, causing a massive explosion dealing finisher/fatal damage to everything within 20 yards. Using this ability ends the Aspect.
Dawn's Grace (Aspect only/Passive): When Lucia enters or leaves her Aspect transformation she is completely healed, both physically and mentally.
Requiem of Ascension: By drawing on the connection she shares with Jennifer “Ziya” Talec and Jason “Sahar” Jameth and drawing in Light and Darkness from her surroundings, Lucia can ascend beyond a normal Aspect form into an entirely new one for six posts. In this form, her irises become a vivid blue and the whites become a fiery crimson. Her hair remains its usual length, instead becoming a constantly swirling kaleidoscope of pure white, perfect black, and glowing violet, and she also gains angelic wings of the same appearance. Requiem's Resolve disappears, replaced by a blade and shield forged of interlaced Light and Darkness that deal heavy damage. Even her armor shifts, becoming pure Twilight with the gold embellishments and scroll work becoming a swirling mass of Light and Darkness. Her strength and speed increase cosmically, giving her the strength to match Hercules himself and a max speed of Mach 1 (770 mph).
As with Aspect of Ragnarok, Lucia loses access to her usual abilities and spells while gaining a new set only usable in this form. Upon ending the form the she cannot use any non-passive abilities for one post, and cannot use any Aspect for eight posts or Requiem for the rest of the battle. Using this ends any other effects that may be active, and buffs or boosts cannot affect her while in this form.
Dark Holy (Requiem Only): Lucia gathers Light and Darkness into a one foot wide sphere between her hands before throwing it. Upon contact the sphere detonates violently in a 10 yard wide explosion of Light and Darkness that deals heavy damage to enemies and fully heals nearby allies. Cooldown two posts.
Dawn of Time (Requiem Only): Lucia draws upon Light and Twilight to invigorate up to three allies, doubling their strength and speed for two posts and resetting all ability/spell cooldowns. This also increases and damage dealt by the character by one tier (light becomes moderate, moderate becomes heavy, heavy becomes finisher/fatal). Cooldown one posts after dissipation (three from casting). This cannot be used on Lucia herself.
Voice of the Fallen (Requiem Only): Lucia draws upon Darkness and Twilight to create up to three blitzball sized orbs. These orbs are then launched at up to three targets, and detonate in a five foot explosion of Darkness and Twilight upon contact that deal heavy damage. Any target hit with the explosion is also Silenced (Silenced targets cannot use magic based abilities or spells for one post). Cooldown three posts.
Elegy of Ending (Requiem Only): Lucia channels all of her Twilight, Jennifer’s Light, and Jason’s Darkness into three five foot wide orbs in front of her. These orbs merge together into a ten foot wide orb of seething elements before being absorbed by Lucia, giving her a massive aura of the same appearance as her hair and wings. Lucia then charges at her target before detonating this aura in a massive explosion dealing finisher/fatal damage to everything within 40 yards. Using this ability ends Requiem regardless of remaining time.
Elemental Embrace (Passive, Requiem Only): When Requiem of Ascension begins or ends Lucia is completely healed, both physically and mentally.
Character Weapons:
Artificial arm: Lucia’s left arm that has a built in cannon and bladed shield. It cannot feel pain, but feels all other sensations as if flesh and blood.
Keyblades:
Requiem’s Resolve: This Keyblade is formed completely from the dust of her previous keyblade and her willpower. Even if it is broken, the pieces will reform into the whole. Once every three posts, this keyblade can create a barrier that blocks one attack dealing light or moderate damage for one post automatically, even if Lucia cannot sense the attack. Heavy or Finisher/Fatal damage is reduced by one tier and then breaks through.
First Transformation – Weapon Shift: Requiem’s Resolve becomes entirely purple with gold accents, and can shift into any melee weapon once per post.
Second Transformation - Armory Cloud: Requiem’s Resolve becomes a cloud of countless razor sharp fragments that can be controlled mentally by Lucia to attack or defend, dealing light damage up to six times per post. Once per post she can form part of the cloud into up to two weapons that can also be controlled mentally. Lasts four posts, with a six post cooldown.
Shotlocks
Crystal Flurry: Lucia can fire up to twenty fist sized shards of crystal at targets. Each crystal deals light damage on contact. Three post cooldown.
Character Summons:
Crystal Golem: A ten foot tall humanoid creation made of the same crystals Lucia summons through her keyblade that is three times stronger than her base form (deals moderate damage per hit), but no faster. Lucia can choose to imbue it with Light, Darkness, or Twilight when it is summoned, allowing its attacks to use that element and deal heavy damage. Lasts four posts, and cannot be summoned again for an additional six posts after it is dismissed. Possesses incredible defense capable of withstanding anything the normal crystals can. In addition to attacking physically the golem has the following abilities:
Crystal Barrage: The golem fires a five foot wide shard of crystal into the air that shatters, lauching twenty fist sized shards at a target that deal moderate damage. If the golem was imbued with an element the crystals detonate on contact into a small explosion of that element, dealing heavy damage. Two post cooldown.
Cleavage Split: The golem splits into two five foot golems that each possess half of the original’s strength, but twice the speed (light damage instead of moderate for non-Element-charged, moderate instead of heavy for Element-charged). This cannot be undone until the golem is dismissed, and the smaller golems cannot use the original’s abilities.
Character Racial Ability: Celderatian Aspect Mastery: If Lucia takes a fatal blow or falls unconscious her Aspect automatically triggers, provided it is not on cooldown.
Character Strengths: Determined, intelligent, loyal, talented swordsman, incredible endurance.
Character Weaknesses: Stubborn, sarcastic to a fault, can appear cold at times.
Character History: Lucia “Mizan” Talec was brought into this Realm as David Talec by Benjamin "Elam" Talec, a Dragoon who could manipulate Light, and Lauren "Layla" Talec, a Paladin who used Darkness. From the moment of her birth, Lucia was considered an oddity by her elders. While most Celderatians possess one Elemental Affinity, she controlled Light and Darkness. Only one out of every ten children born with two elements, known as Dualities, survive to adulthood, and most are mentally handicapped. As the opposing elements fought for dominance within her, Lucia had wildly fluctuating mood swings, causing fear in those around her.
Lucia’s problems only grew when she began the usual Elemental Training, as most of her willpower had to be focused on keeping the Light and Darkness from neutralizing each other, which would be fatal, preventing her from using more than a tiny fraction of her power. In addition, nobody knew how to teach a Duality, as there were none living that had successfully completed the training. Finally, in the fifth month of the seventeenth year of her life, Lucia met a monk from another world who taught Lucia to access her Chi, or Spirit, energy. This energy served as a catalyst to merge the Light and Darkness into an artificial Twilight, identical to natural Twilight with the exception of color. (Lucia’s Twilight is purple, where natural Twilight tends to be gold.)
With the elements finally stable within her, Lucia quickly began learning how to manipulate them and access her full potential. Just two years after she began training, she achieved her Aspect transformation and with it became a full adult. She was given the Elemental Title “Mizan,” meaning “Balance,” in honor of her struggles, and offered a spot on the Elemental Council, the ruling body of Celderat that consisted of the strongest user of each Element.
Unfortunately, just two months after her initiation the Heartless invaded Celderat and destroyed it, killing Lucia’s parents in the process. She awoke on Radiant Garden, and now calls it home. She found work as a mercenary of sorts, taking up protection jobs and killing Heartless under her Elemental Title.
Several years ago she rediscovered her homeworld, now broken and empty, and visited it with the only other survivors, her sister and her best friend, along with two other friends. While she refuses to explain what happened there, she returned to Radiant Garden with a Keyblade, the Shattered Sunset.
Lucia continued her mercenary work until a few years ago when a chance meeting with someone cursed to have a woman’s body drew her awareness to something off about herself. Upon return to Radiant Garden she began researching, only to finally realize the feeling was dysphoria. Thankfully she was able to find a spell to fix the issue, allowing Lucia to become herself truly. Eyes opened to the world of magic, she spent the last few years teaching herself several basic spells, as well as awakening an even more powerful form during the desperation of a fateful encounter.
She then learned even more as a student of a Keyblade Master, fully realizing her powers and the true form of her keyblade, the Requiem's Resolve, and eventually becoming a Master herself. Along the way she fell in love with Seamus Cray, and they eventually had a child, Elmindreda Kalenia Cray-Talec.
Writing Portion
Sample Post:
"You’re sure you want to go through with this? Self-manifestation magic is easy enough to use, but reversing it is nearly impossible!”
The bearer of Duality stood before Jason within the training room, wearing bright colors for once. Many sleepless nights over the past month had led to this moment, the days filled with self-discovery and self-loathing in equal measures. Finally, after hours of arguing and pleading, the deed was to be done at last. Not trusting a voice now far too deep for comfort, a simple nod gave the confirmation.
Jason’s only response was a long sigh, before laying several items in specific patterns around the room. A moment later blinding light enveloped the one before him, swirling in multifaceted hues as a cry of pain came from within. Any concern was ill-founded however, as the light froze in place before being drawn into the person within to reveal her new form, panting yet unharmed.
She gave herself a thorough patting, noting how her shirt was now far tighter across her chest, how her hair was now far longer and matched her eyes. Jason watched in concern, only to find himself wrapped in an ecstatic hug by the now crying warrior. Awkwardly he patted her back before she pulled away. “There, there. I’m glad it worked! You're gonna need a new name though.”
The woman before him wiped her eyes before nodding with a dazzling smile. “I’ve already got one. The name that would have been mine if my parents had known. Lucia.”

Lucia then charges at her target and punches the ground just in front of them, causing a massive explosion dealing finisher/fatal damage to everything within 20 yards. Using this ability ends the Aspect.
Dawn's Grace (Aspect only/Passive): When Lucia enters or leaves her Aspect transformation she is completely healed, both physically and mentally.
Requiem of Ascension: By drawing on the connection she shares with Jennifer “Ziya” Talec and Jason “Sahar” Jameth and drawing in Light and Darkness from her surroundings, Lucia can ascend beyond a normal Aspect form into an entirely new one for six posts. In this form, her irises become a vivid blue and the whites become a fiery crimson. Her hair remains its usual length, instead becoming a constantly swirling kaleidoscope of pure white, perfect black, and glowing violet, and she also gains angelic wings of the same appearance. Requiem's Resolve disappears, replaced by a blade and shield forged of interlaced Light and Darkness that deal heavy damage. Even her armor shifts, becoming pure Twilight with the gold embellishments and scroll work becoming a swirling mass of Light and Darkness. Her strength and speed increase cosmically, giving her the strength to match Hercules himself and a max speed of Mach 1 (770 mph).
As with Aspect of Ragnarok, Lucia loses access to her usual abilities and spells while gaining a new set only usable in this form. Upon ending the form the she cannot use any non-passive abilities for one post, and cannot use any Aspect for eight posts or Requiem for the rest of the battle. Using this ends any other effects that may be active, and buffs or boosts cannot affect her while in this form.
Dark Holy (Requiem Only): Lucia gathers Light and Darkness into a one foot wide sphere between her hands before throwing it. Upon contact the sphere detonates violently in a 10 yard wide explosion of Light and Darkness that deals heavy damage to enemies and fully heals nearby allies. Cooldown two posts.
Dawn of Time (Requiem Only): Lucia draws upon Light and Twilight to invigorate up to three allies, doubling their strength and speed for two posts and resetting all ability/spell cooldowns. This also increases and damage dealt by the character by one tier (light becomes moderate, moderate becomes heavy, heavy becomes finisher/fatal). Cooldown one posts after dissipation (three from casting). This cannot be used on Lucia herself.
Voice of the Fallen (Requiem Only): Lucia draws upon Darkness and Twilight to create up to three blitzball sized orbs. These orbs are then launched at up to three targets, and detonate in a five foot explosion of Darkness and Twilight upon contact that deal heavy damage. Any target hit with the explosion is also Silenced (Silenced targets cannot use magic based abilities or spells for one post). Cooldown three posts.
Elegy of Ending (Requiem Only): Lucia channels all of her Twilight, Jennifer’s Light, and Jason’s Darkness into three five foot wide orbs in front of her. These orbs merge together into a ten foot wide orb of seething elements before being absorbed by Lucia, giving her a massive aura of the same appearance as her hair and wings. Lucia then charges at her target before detonating this aura in a massive explosion dealing finisher/fatal damage to everything within 40 yards. Using this ability ends Requiem regardless of remaining time.
Elemental Embrace (Passive, Requiem Only): When Requiem of Ascension begins or ends Lucia is completely healed, both physically and mentally.
Character Weapons:
Artificial arm: Lucia’s left arm that has a built in cannon and bladed shield. It cannot feel pain, but feels all other sensations as if flesh and blood.
Keyblades:
Requiem’s Resolve: This Keyblade is formed completely from the dust of her previous keyblade and her willpower. Even if it is broken, the pieces will reform into the whole. Once every three posts, this keyblade can create a barrier that blocks one attack dealing light or moderate damage for one post automatically, even if Lucia cannot sense the attack. Heavy or Finisher/Fatal damage is reduced by one tier and then breaks through.
First Transformation – Weapon Shift: Requiem’s Resolve becomes entirely purple with gold accents, and can shift into any melee weapon once per post.
Second Transformation - Armory Cloud: Requiem’s Resolve becomes a cloud of countless razor sharp fragments that can be controlled mentally by Lucia to attack or defend, dealing light damage up to six times per post. Once per post she can form part of the cloud into up to two weapons that can also be controlled mentally. Lasts four posts, with a six post cooldown.
Shotlocks
Crystal Flurry: Lucia can fire up to twenty fist sized shards of crystal at targets. Each crystal deals light damage on contact. Three post cooldown.
Character Summons:
Crystal Golem: A ten foot tall humanoid creation made of the same crystals Lucia summons through her keyblade that is three times stronger than her base form (deals moderate damage per hit), but no faster. Lucia can choose to imbue it with Light, Darkness, or Twilight when it is summoned, allowing its attacks to use that element and deal heavy damage. Lasts four posts, and cannot be summoned again for an additional six posts after it is dismissed. Possesses incredible defense capable of withstanding anything the normal crystals can. In addition to attacking physically the golem has the following abilities:
Crystal Barrage: The golem fires a five foot wide shard of crystal into the air that shatters, lauching twenty fist sized shards at a target that deal moderate damage. If the golem was imbued with an element the crystals detonate on contact into a small explosion of that element, dealing heavy damage. Two post cooldown.
Cleavage Split: The golem splits into two five foot golems that each possess half of the original’s strength, but twice the speed (light damage instead of moderate for non-Element-charged, moderate instead of heavy for Element-charged). This cannot be undone until the golem is dismissed, and the smaller golems cannot use the original’s abilities.
Character Racial Ability: Celderatian Aspect Mastery: If Lucia takes a fatal blow or falls unconscious her Aspect automatically triggers, provided it is not on cooldown.
Character Strengths: Determined, intelligent, loyal, talented swordsman, incredible endurance.
Character Weaknesses: Stubborn, sarcastic to a fault, can appear cold at times.
Character History: Lucia “Mizan” Talec was brought into this Realm as David Talec by Benjamin "Elam" Talec, a Dragoon who could manipulate Light, and Lauren "Layla" Talec, a Paladin who used Darkness. From the moment of her birth, Lucia was considered an oddity by her elders. While most Celderatians possess one Elemental Affinity, she controlled Light and Darkness. Only one out of every ten children born with two elements, known as Dualities, survive to adulthood, and most are mentally handicapped. As the opposing elements fought for dominance within her, Lucia had wildly fluctuating mood swings, causing fear in those around her.
Lucia’s problems only grew when she began the usual Elemental Training, as most of her willpower had to be focused on keeping the Light and Darkness from neutralizing each other, which would be fatal, preventing her from using more than a tiny fraction of her power. In addition, nobody knew how to teach a Duality, as there were none living that had successfully completed the training. Finally, in the fifth month of the seventeenth year of her life, Lucia met a monk from another world who taught Lucia to access her Chi, or Spirit, energy. This energy served as a catalyst to merge the Light and Darkness into an artificial Twilight, identical to natural Twilight with the exception of color. (Lucia’s Twilight is purple, where natural Twilight tends to be gold.)
With the elements finally stable within her, Lucia quickly began learning how to manipulate them and access her full potential. Just two years after she began training, she achieved her Aspect transformation and with it became a full adult. She was given the Elemental Title “Mizan,” meaning “Balance,” in honor of her struggles, and offered a spot on the Elemental Council, the ruling body of Celderat that consisted of the strongest user of each Element.
Unfortunately, just two months after her initiation the Heartless invaded Celderat and destroyed it, killing Lucia’s parents in the process. She awoke on Radiant Garden, and now calls it home. She found work as a mercenary of sorts, taking up protection jobs and killing Heartless under her Elemental Title.
Several years ago she rediscovered her homeworld, now broken and empty, and visited it with the only other survivors, her sister and her best friend, along with two other friends. While she refuses to explain what happened there, she returned to Radiant Garden with a Keyblade, the Shattered Sunset.
Lucia continued her mercenary work until a few years ago when a chance meeting with someone cursed to have a woman’s body drew her awareness to something off about herself. Upon return to Radiant Garden she began researching, only to finally realize the feeling was dysphoria. Thankfully she was able to find a spell to fix the issue, allowing Lucia to become herself truly. Eyes opened to the world of magic, she spent the last few years teaching herself several basic spells, as well as awakening an even more powerful form during the desperation of a fateful encounter.
She then learned even more as a student of a Keyblade Master, fully realizing her powers and the true form of her keyblade, the Requiem's Resolve, and eventually becoming a Master herself. Along the way she fell in love with Seamus Cray, and they eventually had a child, Elmindreda Kalenia Cray-Talec.
Writing Portion
Sample Post:
"You’re sure you want to go through with this? Self-manifestation magic is easy enough to use, but reversing it is nearly impossible!”
The bearer of Duality stood before Jason within the training room, wearing bright colors for once. Many sleepless nights over the past month had led to this moment, the days filled with self-discovery and self-loathing in equal measures. Finally, after hours of arguing and pleading, the deed was to be done at last. Not trusting a voice now far too deep for comfort, a simple nod gave the confirmation.
Jason’s only response was a long sigh, before laying several items in specific patterns around the room. A moment later blinding light enveloped the one before him, swirling in multifaceted hues as a cry of pain came from within. Any concern was ill-founded however, as the light froze in place before being drawn into the person within to reveal her new form, panting yet unharmed.
She gave herself a thorough patting, noting how her shirt was now far tighter across her chest, how her hair was now far longer and matched her eyes. Jason watched in concern, only to find himself wrapped in an ecstatic hug by the now crying warrior. Awkwardly he patted her back before she pulled away. “There, there. I’m glad it worked! You're gonna need a new name though.”
The woman before him wiped her eyes before nodding with a dazzling smile. “I’ve already got one. The name that would have been mine if my parents had known. Lucia.”
