Brindle Chryspen

"Oh no, it's looking at me!"

- Brynn, about a Grimm

Profile
Brindle Chryspen (referred to as 'Brynn' by his team) is the ranged attacker of Team AMBR (pronounced 'amber'). He is 17, and the youngest of Team AMBR. He is a human male, 5"1 in height, and quite lithe and flexible. He has dark blonde hair and blue eyes.

Appearance
Brynn is 5"1 in height with a lithe, flexible build. He has dark blonde, unkempt-looking hair, large crystal blue eyes and pale skin. He has several marks and scars on his arm from learning to shoot his bow and accidentally scraping his arm when he forgot his armguards.

Clothing wise, Brynn wears a dark blue shirt underneath a pale blue tunic and a purple scarf. His tunic has his symbol on the back and has a purple hem. He wears navy blue pants and several belts, all with pouches full of dust pellets he can use to augment his or his Team's weapons. He also wears soft leather shoes and navy armguards to protect his arms from his bowstring.

Symbol
His symbol is a target shape with an arrow through the centre.

Personality and Fighting Style
Brynn is a nervous and worrisome young hunter, especially around new people. It takes a while for him to warm up an get used to others, but when he does he is very loyal and friendly. He acts as a great listener and mediator in Team AMBR, capable of calming down Char and understanding AJ and Magnes' plans quickly.

Due to the nature of both his weapons and his semblance, he acts as more of a long-ranged attacker than a close-range one, and often scouts ahead for Team AMBR.

He is quick to flee from a situation he doesn't like, but desperately wants to become more confident so he can become a more effective hunter.

He is Neutral Good.

Couer Libre
Brynn's weapon is called Couer Libre. It is a Ranged Energy Bow Lance (REBL). The main form he uses is the bow form, which generates energy arrows via dust. The bow form's limbs fold together and the grip extends to form a Lance, which he can then throw at enemies. His weapon is mostly teal with cyan highlights along the limbs and a dark blue grip, and the arrows generated take on whichever colour of dust he uses (e.g. red for fire dust).

Couer Libre is translated from French. 'Couer' means heart, and 'Libre' means free. I didn't like how Libre Couer sounded so I switched the words around.

Abilities
Brynn is the best shot of the team and, thanks to his small stature, often goes unnoticed on the edges of a battlefield which enables him to be a very effective fighter. He is also very perceptive and has a keen eye.

Semblance
Brynn's semblance is called 'Feather'. It allows him to detect air movements and currents if he focuses, enabling him to take into account the effect of the wind when he shoots, and detect shifts of Grimm on the battlefield. If he uses Feather for a prolonged time period, however, he becomes very drained and can experience negative effects to his senses. His current range is up to 10 metres for around twenty seconds, but he is capable of detecting currents up to 50 metres away IF he is almost full of aura AND he only uses it for a few seconds at most, enabling him to get 'flashes' of a battlefield's currents before a fight occurs.

Backstory
At some point in his childhood, he and Char become good friends. She convinced him to become a huntress with him.

Amber 'AJ' Jones
Brynn looks up to and idolises AJ as an older sibling, often taking her advice on anything he is worried about. He

Magnes Irving
Brynn looks up to Magnes as an older brother, and the two train together a lot due to their similar weapon forms.

Roxanne Charlotte 'Char' Reine
Char is Brynn's oldest friend and most trusted companion. While sometimes her personality is a bit too much for him, he knows she always takes his feelings into account and calms down is he asks her to.

Trivia

 * Brynn had the hardest name for me to decide on. Originally, I had called him 'Chrys' but, after changing the teams acronym, I changed it to 'Brindle' and shortened it to 'Brynn'.
 * Now, his name is based on the colour Brindle, which is a tawny/tan colour. His surname is derived from crystals (hence, CHRYSpen)
 * He was created during Volume 2 and finalised during Volume 3.
