Clover Surek

"“There’s only one thing that’s not allowed here, mister! And that’s sadness! So, you better cheer up or I’ll hit you with my shield and knock you out, then you’ll really be sad!”"

Appearance
Clover is primarily clothed in a bright, lime green color that is soothing to the eyes. Her primary outfit consists of a short-sleeved white blouse with puffed up shoulders. Over that is a green vest that covers it from her neckline to her waist. She wears puffy shorts that end just before her knees that are of the same green color as her vest. She also wears suspenders that are somewhat hidden by her vest. She wears green go-go boots and occasionally wears a white, green feather-topped beret.

Her nightwear consists of simple, gartered lime green pajamas decorated with clovers.

When Clover has her hair down, her lime-green hair falls to just below the tips of her shoulders and to the middle of her back. This gives her a variety of options for how to style her hair and, more often than not, she utilizes a variety of hair decs to accent it. One of her favorite types of decorations involve putting her hair into two side-ponytails on each side, giving her a very bubbly, pigtails-esque appearance. She has aquamarine blue eyes that go well with the soft green color that dominates the rest of her. She has a small, sloped nose and full cheeks, making her look much younger than she actually is. Her skin is a soft, pale white color, with a skinny build and a flat chest. She has a small series of freckles across her nose.

Her emblem is a simple four-leaf clover.

Personality
Clover typically has a very bubbly, cheery personality. Many around her refer to her as being quite “quirky.” In addition, she’s obsessed with her friends and will do anything to protect them from harm, prioritizing their safety over her own. There is much that can be said on why exactly she acts this way, though the most likely answer is that it is a defense mechanism that resulted from the death of her sister from when she was 13.

Clover gets above average marks in school, but still just barely managed to make it into Beacon with her transcripts. Nonetheless, she lacks discipline and she’s extremely likely to not follow orders in the exact way that they’re told. Indeed, she’s very creative with everything and often paints and draws in her free time. However, she’s also extremely well-to-do and her family never seems to run out of money, which means that she often buys a lot of things and lacks the wisdom to actually do anything useful with her money (or even to not use the money when she doesn’t need to). This leads to conflicts concerning people who don’t like wealthy people who flaunt their wealth. In fact, Clover is the sort of rich person who gets exactly what she wants.

Clover is the sort of person who would talk your ear off at a shopping mall while still managing to eat a hamburger in one hand and play a game with the other. She loves romance and enjoys making googly-eyes at a number of the boys at her schools.

History
"“Green grass, counting lucky stars; she only wishes to protect others.”"

Clover was born into a wealthy family. How they came upon that wealth is mysterious, known only to Clover’s parents. From what Clover knows, the family used to be quite poor. Their sudden wealth came abruptly and did not leave much temperance in the minds of the Surek family. They used their wealth to gain influence and were generally quite affluent in their behavior. Clover was something of a spoiled brat when she was a child.

When she was 13 years old, Clover’s only sister was killed in an accident by members of the White Fang. While it was unintentional, Clover held a grudge against the organization, though she managed to be wise enough to separate the Faunus as a whole from the organization. This, however, did nothing to stop her growing obsession with protecting people from ever coming in harm’s way ever again. Begging her parents to enroll her into a combat school, they eventually caved.

She spent years there and eventually crafted Sciath, her bow-shield. She excelled, though she noted that she was hardly at the top of her class. Somehow, however, she was accepted into Beacon, a feat that made her parents very proud of her. Clover vowed to take advantage of the opportunity and made her life’s goal permanently to protecting people from harm. And she would start after dropping into a dark, mysterious forest...

Abilities
Clover is primarily a ranged fighter, utilizing her bow to maximum effect. When engaged in close-quarters combat, she utilizes her kite shield as a blunt instrument and, when pressed, can adhoc blades using her arrowheads.

Clover uses an MRBS (Mechanized Retractable Bow-Shield) that she lovingly refers to as Sciath, a combination bow-and-shield. It uses a kite shield design and the entirety of the bow is contained within said shield. The shield’s handle doubles as the bow’s own handle. In fact, the entire bow can be separated from the kite shield. Clover sometimes takes advantage of this removability in order to use the shield as an impromptu “skate board” to ride down a sloped surface whilst using the naked compound bow to fire various types of arrows. The shield itself also doubles as a quiver, so there’s that, too.

Her Semblance gives her enhanced sight and awareness. She can guide her arrows to their goals at almost pinpoint accuracy, though this comes at a cost. If using her Semblance, she tends to exhaust her Aura supply very quickly, necessitating that she only use it in short bursts.
