About the Character
Character Personality Echo takes fear to a whole new level; she isn't just shy, she has Anthropophobia, which is the fear of people and society. If she meets another person, something she tries to avoid as much as possible, she'll either turn and run away immediately or become paralysed by fear. She easily panics, especially if there is nowhere for her to run. If this is the case, she'll most likely resort to begging for mercy, because her past has left her with the impression that everyone she meets, even if they seem friendly, could be a potential threat.
That being said, it is possible to gain Echo's trust with enough persistence. Once she trusts someone, though, she gets rather 'clingy' around them, becoming very reluctant to leave her friend's side. Betray this girl's trust once, though, and it can be guaranteed that she will never trust you again. Her reason for trying to stay as close to her few allies as possible is that she thinks they can protect her from 'all those nasty people out there'.
Echo is only a child, and as such she's not clear as to what is 'right' and 'wrong', good or evil. She had experienced her fair shae of bad deeds in her time, and even dealt a few out, but even so she's still unable to identify what is really evil. She is tormented by the fact that she doesn't know what side she should be on, so to speak, and as such she could be manipulated to go either way, as most of the time she will trust whatever her few allies or friends think...
In her second form Echo will switch to a vastly different personality. In this state she will become, as Echo herself calls it, 'feral'; she will hunt, ambush and attack pretty much anything that moves with intent to kill, not making any distinction between friend or foe. Her original personality always returns shortly before she switches back to her first form, usually resulting in her falling into a state of depression and guilt of her actions for a while.
The last thing to note about Echo is that she is verbally mute; she hasn't physically spoken in two years, or thereabouts. If she needs to communicate, she does so telepathically, and even so this is remarkably rare. Other times she may express herself through cat-like noises, such as purring or hissing.
Character Appearance In her first form, Echo is a rather underweight-looking young girl, and anything she wears, even if it would normally fit a girl her age perfectly, always looks a size or two too large. She is a mere 4'8'' tall when she stands up fully, but she rarely does this, usually moving about on all fours as nimbly as a cat. She has extremely pale skin and hair which has lost almost all traces of pigment; about two inches above being shoulder-length, her hair is a very pale silver in colour, almost completely white. Her eyes are quite pretty, being a vivid ocean blue. She wears a loose-fitting, semi-long button-up black coat on top of a plain white t-shirt, and somewhat tattered denim jeans; the right leg of the jeans is only about half the length it should be, the rest of it having been apparently torn off, thus exposing her lower leg. Around her lower right leg are the remnants of a chain, which are a little embedded into her flesh. She wears a black baseball cap which is almost too big for her head. Echo does not own and thus never wears any shoes. In this form and her Feral Form, Echo has sharp, feline teeth, white cat's ears and a white-furred feline tail.
In her Feral Form, Echo's limbs each become about half a foot longer, her fingers lengthen a little, and the nails on her toes and fingertips become razor-sharp cat-like claws. Three jagged black stripes running down her cheeks from both eyes become visible in this form, and her eyes change from a beautiful blue to a piercing, luminous blood-red.
Battle Statistics
Character Position (Hero/Neutral/Villain): Chaotic Neutral
Character Abilities
Speeding Slam - Echo simply runs at an opponent at full speed then throws herself at them, barging into said opponent with full force. Requires a two post cool-down. Can be used in both her forms.
Lightning Shock V1 - If an opponent touched Echo's skin directly while she is scared, she may choose to give them a powerful electric shock. if she does choose to do so, then a cool-down of 4 posts is required. Can only be used while Echo is in her Human Form. The electricity is in the form of bio-electricity; i.e. the same kind of electric shock an electric eel might give, roughly 35% stronger than an electric eel's shock. The electricity is delivered in the physical form of lightning; the lightning becomes visible on her skin the instant the opponent touches her skin, like a glowing white aura. The glow is transferred onto the skin of the opponent as they experience the intense electric shock.
Lightning Shock V2 - Echo lays a hand directly on an opponent's skin, normally on the neck or head, and delivers a fierce electric shock to deal damage. A four post cool-down is required after use. Can be used in both her forms. The electricity is in the form of bio-electricity; i.e. the same kind of electric shock an electric eel might give, roughly 35% stronger than an electric eel's shock. The electricity is delivered in the physical form of lightning; her palm gloes white with electricity the instant she brings it into direct contact with her opponent's skin, like a glowing white aura, which is then transferred onto the opponent as they experience the fierce electric shock.
Bite - Echo simply bites an opponent with all the force she can muster to deal damage. Requires a two post cool-down. Can be used in both her forms.
Savage Swipe - Echo swipes at an opponent with her claws to deal damage. Requires a two post cool-down. Can only be used in her Feral Form.
Flaming Swipe - Echo swipes at an opponent with her claws cloaked in fire to deal damage. Requires a three post cool-down. Can only be used in her Feral Form.
Jump-Claw Kick - Echo jumps up and kicks an opponent with one clawed foot with gret force to deal damage. Requires a two-post cool down. Can only be used in her Feral Form.
Fear-to-the-max - When Echo's fear reaches a peak, she becomes able to use this rather powerful ability. On the first post, the ground around her will rumble and crack, and a red-and-black energy will build up around her. On the next post, the energy will be absorbed into her and very rapidly fired out again in the form of a pulse to deal reasonably severe damage to anyone within 20 metres of her. If blocked, the damage taken by this attack is halved. As a side-effect, Echo also takes the equivalent of half the damage dealt to her opponents each time she uses this ability. Requires a ten post cool-down. Can only be used in her Human Form.
Character Weapons: None...
Character Summons:
Mommy/Mama - Echo's true mother, which she will either refer to as Mommy or Mama. Her mother is a feline demon, greatly resembling a Caracal, but with red fur, black ears and black legs. She also happens to be just over two metres tall at the shoulder. Her eyes are a luminous gold in colour. Can be summoned for up to ten posts at a time, and requires a cool-down of 9 before she can be summoned again.
Shadow Charge - Echo's mother runs at an opponent while cloaked in darkness, barging into them with full-force to deal damage. Requires a three post cool-down.
Urban Camoflauge - Echo's mother may often appear as a piece of graffiti-like art on a nearby wall. While in this state she looks identical to how she does normally, and while she can still move if she so chooses, she cannot attack or even so much as touch an opponent while part of the wall. She is able to do this as often and stay like this as long as she so chooses.
Character Racial Ability:
Feline Motion - Echo is able to run, walk, jump and climb as nimbly as a cat while moving on all fours, which is her primary way of getting around. However, it also means that she is almost completely incapable of walking on two feet like a human would.
Character Strengths (1 required): Highly agile, alert senses
Character Weaknesses (1 required): Suffers from Anthropophobia, not able to withstand much damage
Character History:
Echo was the youngest of two children in her family. The elder child was her half-brother; they had the same father, but a different mother. Echo had at first been thought of as a miracle child, as her parents had tried for a baby many times but their desire had never been fulfilled, thus leading them to suspect that her mother was in fact infertile. LIttle did they know, however, that Echo's conception was far more miraculous than they could have thought. She was actually concieved when a certain demon chose the infertile woman to be the surrogate-mother of her child and magically implanted her embryo into her chosen host while the target was sleeping....this embryo would later be born as Echo.
Echo grew up thinking she was a human, until the age of ten. It was then that her demonic powers began to surface, and she was declared a monster, a freak of nature. Her parents were horrified, and eventually stopped caring for her. Echo suffered abuse from them and her brother until, eventually, her upset peakes and she changed into her Feral Form for the first time, killing her brother in a blind fury. Now even more horrified by their monstrosity of a daughter, her human 'surrogate-parents' resorted to locking her in the basement, even to the extent of attaching a chain to her right leg to stop her trying to escape.
Echo ws kept like this for two years, surviving on what little food was thrown down to her. During this time she became steadily more depressed and her Anthropophobia grew. Echo eventually snapped, turning into her Feral Form for the second time, killing and even partially devouring her human surrogates in her rage. She recovered her senses, became horrified by what she had done, and ran away as fast as she could. To this day, she doesn't know what world she originally came from, and never wants to find out. Also, the frequent acusations of her being a monster have led to her starting to believe that she really is nothing more than a monstrosity.
After running away, she was located by her original demon mother, whom stayed by her daughter's side ever since.
Also, she has only recently come across creatures such as Heartless and Nobodies, and still isn't quite sure what to make of them. Usually she'll just run from them, unless she has no other option.
