"You're a lot nicer than people say."

- Percy

Appearance
Perdine possesses deep red hair that sways down into a ponytail by her waist. She carries a gentle expression on her face with deep green eyes and a charming smile. Considered a beauty by all, she carries herself with dignity.

Personality
Despite the popularity surrounding her, Perdine is a down to earth individual who prefers to see people for who they really are. She's very close to her team and often speaks her mind. Her loyalty towards APBL knows no limits especially to her partner and leader, Albus, whom she holds romantic feelings for. She has confidence in her own skills and respects her opponents regardless of who they are. Fully calm and focused on the battlefield, Perdine knows when not to hold back.

History
Having grown up in the kingdom of Vale, Perdine once dreamed of becoming a huntress since she was a child. She considers herself to be a typical girl with an uneventful childhood. At the academy, she'd partner with Albus Riviere and join him on Team APBL. After the fall of Beacon and his departure, Perdine left the academy and returned home to Vale.

Weapons
Perdine's weapon of choice is a Pyrotechnical Gear Spear named Lúin. It appears as a crimson spear decorated in red and gold. The blade takes after a partisan spearhead jutting out into three points much like the shape of a maple leaf affixed to the end of a large gear. Small veins inside the spear are filled with ignition dust stemming from the gear. The gear itself is an engine that rests where pole meets blade that projects flames onto the steel itself. The fire travels through the dust chambers to set her weapon alight.

Timeflare
Perdine's semblance is an elemental ability named Timeflare. She can temporarily affix fire in place that will continue to burn even without fuel or anything to combust. However, Perdine isn't able to create fire itself and thus requires a source.

Team
Albus Riviere
 * Her partner and leader, Perdine dedicates her loyalty to him without question. She began deeply admiring his skills but eventually came to love him due to his personal nature. She worries about his unwillingness to open up everything to her.

Bruno Lawson
 * The two often study together due to their quiet habits when doing homework and preparing for exams. They keep each other focused. Though she sometimes jokes that he should speak more, Perdine respects his preference for being softspoken.

Lance Amora
 * Her preferred sparring partner on the team, Perdine and Lance hold a very friendly rivalry with their spearfighting. She disagrees heavily with his treatment towards Faunus and attempts to talk him out of his animosity.

Others
Perseus Lucille
 * Perdine first met Percy after receiving a handkerchief from him after the food fight in the cafeteria. At the time, she knew little about him besides his conversation with Albus. However, she quickly learned that he was a kind soul and considered him a good friend. She entrusts him to rescue Albus from GLCR.

Etymology
Perdine is an amalgamation of two of Pellinore's children, Percival and Dindrane, as well as the color Perinone Red.
