Sylvaine Obernai

Sylvaine Obernai

Age: 17

Height: 5 feet 8 inches

Weight: 105 lbs

Hair: Light Brown

Eyes: Green

Appearance:

Sylvaine is quite dainty for a Huntress-to-be. She has a short, slight frame. She wears a half-length light kahki-colored shawl around her shoulders that goes down to her elbows. Under that, she wears a sort of tactical vest. This green-and-light brown vest has lots of small pockets and pouches for storing seeds and ammo. She wears gardening pants with protective kneepads, and a pair of old hand-me-down boots.

Weapon: Arboroot

Arboroot is a transforming sniper rifle/polearm. In its sniper form, it resembles the WA2000, a short, stocky frame with a rectangular design. In its polearm mode, it is a simple spear with a pinecone-like, white attachment at the end. When in sniper mode, this attachment serves as the stock. The weapon uses lots of green dust, for both firing, and to augment the melee effects. Sylvaine doesn't actually know what the green dust does in melee mode, she simply thinks it looks nice. The weapon's true strength lies in it's compatibility with Sylvaine's semblance.

Abilities:

Sylvaine is a rather adaptable fighter, despite being somewhat frail. Her semblance, Green Thumb, allows her to speed up and control the growth of plants. She uses this ability to augment her weapon for her needs. She can grow a longer barrel out of roots and vines, or convert the weapon into a deadly single-shot blunderbuss. However, she cannot make plants simply appear out of the ground. Since she only has the ability to increase and control growth, the carries a variety of seeds around with her, along with ammunition for her weapon. Though the growth is sped up, it takes Sylvaine several minutes to complete a weapon augmentation.

Personality

Sylvaine is a very quiet, zoned-out kind of girl. She is very nostalgic, and loves forests and trees. While certainly a talented warrior, Sylvaine abhors violence between humans. She can often be found wandering through a forest, absentmindedly singing a strange song.

Backstory

Sylvaine was raised by her grandfather in a log cabin in a large, wooded area near the edge of rural Vale. As a child, she would explore the forest, finding new favorite trees, climbing, eating herbs and plants (her grandfather taught her which ones not to eat), and basically communing with nature. For her entire life, she has had a tune stuck in the back of her head. She can be heard singing or humming it often. Her grandfather was a great sniper and survivalist, and fought during the "color war."
