Fascienne Phoena

Fascienne Phoena is a character created by me, APOTHEOSISx. All art also by me.

Pre-Fall of Beacon
Bhura is a slim young lady with rather dark skin. Her hair is styled in a short, wavy bob with a long braid in the back. She dons a tight ensemble of short pants and a black sports bra, over which is draped a red and golden shawl, along with another brown one around her waist. On her right shoulder is a pauldron with her emblem. She wears low-heeled golden and red slip-ons.

Post Fall of Beacon
Bhura's long hair is now free-flowing as opposed to her old braid. She now dons a beautiful armor set decorated with gold and brown hues, with her old sash being draped over her chestplate. Over her waist is draped a utility belt along with armor. She wears a chain around her forehead with a Fire dust crystal, allowing her weapon to take on that elemental propriety.

Pre-Fall of Beacon
Although a rather calm individual, the heat of battle brings out Bhura's aggressive and sadistic self. These traits almost never transition into daily situations, and she never loses control of her own emotions or her words. Although she's strong, she is far from stupid. It doesn't of course mean that she excels in academics; she'd rather learn from life.

Post Fall of Beacon
Very affected by the many losses she has suffered, her aggressive episodes developed into a semi-permanent state. She slays her targets brutally and without an instant of hesitation. Without her teammates by her side, she has no support and relies on her latent brutality... After all, it's nearly all she has left.

Backstory
Bhura was a problematic child. She would often get in fights with other children and was a troublemaker. Her parents decided to send her off to Haven Academy to redirect her troublesome nature and forge her into a huntress. Full of teen angst and anger, she enrolled with exceptional results. With her edgy attitude, as well as her strength, which was above average for her age, she thought herself invincible, like many other teenagers. So, naturally, she would rush in battle head-first, not minding the consequences.

However, during a Grimm attack, wanting to help fight off the horde, she rushed in, only to get herself seriously injured. The grimm were effectively pushed back, but she spent the fight knocked out. To this day, she has, thankfully, only a scar left from the incident.

She realized that it was not the attitude to be had, and that it would most likely kill her in a "real" battle. With a brand new, settled down attitude, she graduated from Haven in order to enroll in Beacon Academy, where she saw herself best.

Although now a cool-headed lady, a long and exciting battle sometimes brings out her old self, though never for long.

Fall of Beacon & post
During the attack on Beacon Academy, Bhura fought on the campus grounds with her fellow students before being ordered to retreat. Despite wanting to stay and protect the perimeter, she was forced to flee, very much to her dismay.

Seeing her friends fall to the hands of the Grimm, she decided to shut herself off. Figuring this would prevent her from feeling further loss, she pushed her remaining friends away and left. With team CBLT officially disbanded, Bhura went back to Mistral to work as a guard for a while, then as an arm for hire. She performs dirty jobs and, rarely but surely, assassinations.

Aura
Her Aura is brown-ish burgundy in color.

Semblance
Bhura can summon 6 aura arms that mimic her movement and cause additional damage. Although they don't have mass, they are still able to collide with objects, offering an extra helping hand in, for instance, carrying objects (when not in combat). This ability is called Bahu Sashastr. It has a limited duration of about 20 seconds when stretched to its limits, and is often used as a combat state when fighting alone.

Rakshasa
Rakshasa in its sword form.Rakshasa is a three-way between a scimitar, an assault rifle and a spear. A rather powerful weapon, some degree of mastery is required in order to utilize it. Made out of a fine rose gold alloy and adorned with silvers and golds, this weapon is, despite its brutish appearance, considered a fine and uncommon piece. The blade is broken into different sized sections that fold over and under the weapon to give space to the rifle barrel. The handle and the stock

rotate to accomodate to the three versatile forms. Finally, the polearm is hidden within the stock.

All in all, it is a versatile weapon that requires mastery in different forms of combat.

<p data-parsoid="{"dsr":[5651,5823,0,0]}">Bhura is a brutal fighter. Using her weapon expertise, she dispatches her enemies quickly, and usually leaving a mess, a trail of destruction, or collateral damage behind.

<p data-parsoid="{"dsr":[5825,5964,0,0]}">When in a pickle, she can activate Bahu Sashastr; sprouting multiple arms, she's then able to cause more damage or block blows even easier.
