His apparel consists of a white shirt, light weight red jacket and black cargo pants. Over this he wears a trench coat. The coat is black at the shoulders and goes down the arms. Below the shoulders, the coat’s design features a series of triangles, each line of which fades slightly until the coat is white from the knee down. The coat has two large pockets on the outside, at hip level, and two inner breast pockets. To pull the ensemble together, he wears a pair of black combat boots.

Personality
Despite the cold and unsocial exterior, Vanta is quite the opposite. He is rather outgoing and silly around those he trusts. Although he doesn’t reach out to others, he is more than willing to accept those that reach out to him. This holds true whether or not he needs help or if there is a wish for a simple conversation. He is quick to trust and loyal to a fault, extending to going into disbelief when lied to by others. Vanta is more than ready to fight for those he believes to be his friends. He is also eager to help those people as well, giving a simple nod in reply. He is hard to anger, and overall tends to remain calm or tries to appear that way.

History
Vanta was born in the city of Vale, yet lived the majority of his life in a village south of the city with his parents. Vanta’s mother grew up outside the walls and lived in constant struggle. In turn, as he grew up she taught him the survival skills they learned. Though, they always wanted more for him. Eventually, they were able to get Vanta into Signal Academy. New to the city life, Vanta was victim to many scams and con artists. Making him become weary of others. During this time however, Vanta was able to create his weapon of choice and hone his skills, even getting accepted into Beacon. However his stay was cut short. Vanta’s mother had grown ill and he moved back home in order to provide support for his family. Soon after, his father became short tempered and violent. Initially, Vanta tried to rationalize his father’s actions and pulled him out of fights with neighbors and other villagers. However, his temper soon turned onto Vanta and his mother. Vanta tried to ignore, or give reason to this as well. After one particularly bad night, Vanta decided that he and his mother needed to move in with his Grandparents, residents of Vale. It was also then he decided to put his skills to use. He would go to Beacon Academy and build a better life for his family. As a parting gift, his grandparents patched up a jacket that had used to be his grandfather’s favorite, and they gave it to Vanta.

Abilities
Vanta grew up hunting with his father, and lived outside the walls. So, if there’s one thing he’s good at it's surviving by any means possible. The skills he honed best were tracking and problem solving. He specializes in close combat, however he has little experience fighting against people that actively use dust or fighting at a distance. Given his slender build, he is quick on his feet. He is better at using stealth or dodging than having to take a blow head on. Semblance

Vanta has not yet discovered his semblance. Weapons

Vanta’s favorite weapons are his two telescopic swords which he keeps in his jacket’s outer pockets. They have black blades with white handles. The handles have no hilt and the area where the pommel should be is curved and wider than the rest of the handle. He also carries a set of daggers on his person. These daggers also have black blades and also function as pistol. Each can only chamber a single round, which Vanta doesn’t always remember to reload, especially the lesser used ones in his boots. He carries one dagger in each boot, four on his belt ( under his jacket and with his extra ammunition), and one in each breast pocket of his jacket.
