Aurelia Riore

"I was never really fit to be a huntress; I'm just a troublemaker. Celina, Vesper, Nyx; they were always so bright, and I couldn't catch up no matter how fast I ran. But that's alright; one day, they'll come back. Even if they get lost along the way, I'll always be here to bring them home."

After

Firefly
Aurelia wields a Radiance Ignition Flail Torch (RIFT) known as Firefly. It appears as a lantern-mace hybrid.

It appears as a lantern attached to a long pole with a chain. The lantern is infused with dust, swirling with different colors when activated. Retracting the chain, the lantern becomes fixed to the shaft, transforming into a mace.

She can use this ordinarily to brighten dark areas or to spark fires. By swinging the weapon around, she can spread the flames, or use them to enhance her attacks.

Radiance
Aurelia possesses a semblance known as Radiance. She can emit pulses from her body that energize in various ways, transfering that energy to whatever they hit or pass through. These pulses can increase the rate injuries heal by ushering more cell activity and promoting the body's passive mechanisms.

She can also use Radiance to direct the ways flames travel and increase the intensity, mostly used for her weapon. Likewise, these pulses are able to travel through various sources and mediums affecting everything along the way, eventually dissipating.

This semblance, while lacking in combat attributes, has shown a versatile range of effectiveness.

Etymology
Aurelia comes from the Latin word for 'golden', reflecting that of her color. The term was also used in ancient times as a title for minor saints, much like her caring nature.

Riore stems from the Italian word fiore, meaning 'flower' or 'bloom'. Flowers are often associated with a gentle existence and fragile beauty, coming in all shapes and sizes.

Her first and last names combined are a derivation of the pronunciation of Aurora, who was the Roman Goddess of Dawn and the equivalent of Greece's Eos. She flew across the morning sky, renewing herself. She also had two siblings; Sol, the sun, and Luna, the moon. Likewise, Aurelia's full name can mean 'Golden Flower'.

Trivia

 * Aurelia was based on the folklore surrounding the being known as the salamander, associated with fire and rebirth.
 * Her design colors are Gold, Brown, and White.
