- Neon's Scroll

Appearance
Neon is a fine toned young man with blue hair, light blue eyes and average height. He wears a t-shirt, and a vest overlaying it. For the accesories he wears a loose neck tie and bracelets at his wrists, and a pair of gloves. He has earrings and a bandage at his nose. For the bottom, he wears pants with one side rolling up to his knee, and sneakers.

Personality
At first glance, Neon seems a bit naive and childish with his movements and actions, which he actually is. He don't act his age, he's always teasing and pulling pranks on other people. He's a freeloader, always lazy to do things himself and relies on others. He shows compassion for everyone, even for the grimms, acting like the grimms are his friends but still ends up killing them because they don't like music.

The thing he loves is music and dancing, it makes him express his feelings through graceful movements made with passion and gives him the feeling of being free from any problems in this world while playing music. He likes to be very upbeat and carefree, which often leaves him playing his guitar and dancing at the same time. He has a very wide positive view of the world, which makes him childish in every way. Neon likes to have fun with everyone, he always makes a fool out of himself but he doesn't mind coz he believes that life's too short to be spent with problems, it needs to be bright and beautiful, there's no time for being serious and miserable because you only live once. So he tries his best to shake and liven things up, he's also very flirty with girls.

Backstory
Neon lived in a small house at the huge city of Vale, he and his family lived a mediocre life. Neon, as a child, was an optimistic little man, he often goes outside just to play and ride his skateboard. He was always found dirty and covered with mud. He likes practicing his stunts using his skateboard that often leads to an accident, most of the time just a scrape, sometimes even worse, like a broken bone. His parents always scold him for being naughty and always getting himself in trouble. But this doesn't affect him from doing the things he love to do, he has the will to push on and smile through every problems thrown at him. He's fond of music, especially party musics, which gave him a huge love for parties and dancing.

His parents grounded him because of the constant accidents that was happening when he plays outside. They forced him to just stay home and enjoy the indoors for once. Neon sat down and started playing with his toys while watching television, suddenly he saw a cartoon, a super hero flying through the skies and spreading smiles everywhere. The super hero, took the risk and sacrificed his life for the greater good. He wanted to be like one... A hero, a person that's spreading smiles everywhere and sacrificing his own happiness just to make others happy and because it's overwhelmingly awesome. Other than that, he wanted to experience flying, it gave him the vision of being free.

Then when he wasn't grounded anymore, he tried bungee jumping off a cliff just to experience the fast adrenaline and the freezing breeze of the air racing through his face. He tied together a dozen of large elastic cords and tied it to a tree, then he ran at a full sprinting speed and jumped off. It felt great, the feeling of flying and diving down through the woods. Just as when he thought the elastic cord was gonna spring him back, it snapped, he was free falling towards the ground. He closed his eyes, then a man came rushing and caught him just before he was about to hit the ground and then shortly afterwards, left. That man was a hunter, a hero, that's what he wanted to become, a hunter, the only possible job to become a hero. So he decided to start his journey to become what he wanted, and started to get serious enough during school, for him to graduate and get accepted to Beacon.

One day when he was skateboarding through the forest and trying new stunts, he tried to jump through a small marsh and so he did but he crashed into a tree with full speed. He laid underneath it, scratching his head when suddenly an egg fell. It was an eagle's egg, he wanted to bring it home and show it to his parents, he quickly grabbed his skateboard then took off. At the same time when he got home, the egg hatched, a tiny little chick popped out, he was overjoyed and insisted to his parents that he'll keep the eagle, and so his parents agreed. He cared for the little chick, fed it everyday, taught it how to fly, and grew up together. He never gave up on his dream to fly, hoping one day to soar high in the sky together with his companion, and become the hero he always wanted.

He made his weapon, Harlequin Freedom, when he was studying at Sanctum to develop his fighting skills. He made a weapon that best suits him and a weapon that he's comfortable with. Soon on after studying in Sanctum he enrolled in Beacon along with his companion Waki.

Weapon
Neon's weapon name is Harlequin Freedom, It's a skateboard guitar axe with a glowing neon color and a neon rosette. His guitar axe is a weapon, skateboard and an instrument. When not in use he can use it to play music, while in combat it is used as a weapon, a double-sided axe, when in skateboard form it's used for transporation. Neon's weapon has no range form and is pure melee.

Guitar Axe Form: Neon's weapon that is used to fight grimms. He can both play music and fight with this form. He uses the axe to cut through the grimm's flesh and sometimes, to block using the bout or the densed axe part of the weapon, he rarely blocks with the fretboard of his weapon or the handle, because the claws of the grimms might cut off its strings. When forced to block with the fretboard, he uses the other side so that the strings won't be hit. His weapon also has yellow dust crystals at the sharp sides of the axe, making every blow to cause electric shocks.

Skateboard Form: Neon's weapon is able to transform into a skateboard, he uses this for travelling purposes. It has only two wheels, and the front part of the skateboard is sharp. From guitar axe form to skateboard form, this transformation starts with the wheels which will simply become hidden inside the weapon, then with the guitar axe's bout/body (which is the densed axe) splitting into two four peices. The two bladed parts of the axe goes to the front (which is the fretboard), leaving the deck of the skateboard to have a sharp front deck (front wooden part of the skateboard) and a blunt one on the back, so it can still be used as a weapon while riding it, but it's hard coz the skateboard isn't far from the ground, and won't reach the upper level of the enemy, causing only minor wounds. It can reach about two feet when Neon tries to do a stunt and hovers above the ground to make an attack.

Semblance
Neon's semblance is called N-Zone. He's able to overlay an electric field on top of his aura, causing his weapon's neon lights and he himself to be more bright. He manifests the bio-electric field that's flowing within his nervous system, the electric field doesn't affect those who touches him, it just charges his body. He can electrically charge his quads by shocking the nerves in it, causing him to leap at high distances and leave a lightning trail behind. His semblance drains his aura when he leaves the electric field active, but he only needs it for a short period of time to electrically charge his quads, so this won't be much of a problem unless over used. The side effect of his semblance is lightning, it causes him to leave a lightning trail behind if he leaps, the lightning however, is nothing but a pure translucent light.

Companion
Waki, Neon's companion, a bald eagle. She's his trusted friend that's always there for him, they even grew up together. Waki always help Neon through everything, she even pecks him if he's about to do something stupid. Through their long relationship, Neon developed a way for them to communicate, through staccato. Neon can understand Waki's staccato and answers her with the same language or sometimes through whistle. Waki is Neon's eye in the sky, she helps Neon locate anything that's out of his vision.
