Liath Azure

Colton Azure

Before I go any further, I just want to point out that I am aware the Azure is a common second name around here, and Colton seems to be taken aswell. Unfortunately, before finding this place, I had already designed, written and posted two short introductory stories for him which sort of cemented his name. So if anyone feels like i'm stealing their idea or anything like that, I am really sorry!

History
 Colton Azure and his brother, Tyse, were orphaned at a young age. Not wanting to be adopted into a family, Tyse took it upon himself to look after the pair of them. Years later at the age of thirteen, Tyse was accepted into Signal Combat School. Colton - who was nine at the time - was fiercely proud of his older brother, often proclaiming that he would go to Beacon academy and become the greatest hunter of all time. Tyse excelled in every field, quickly becoming one of the best students at Signal, however, his tendency to show off always landed him in trouble or in the hospital - the latter more often than the former.

 Then one day it went too far. Colton had turned thirteen and had been accepted into Signal to - hopefully - follow his brother into Beacon. Tyse - now seventeen - was in his final semester at Signal, and still hadn’t shaken the habit of showing off. One night Colton got a voice message from his brother, saying he was going to be late again after promising some of the lowerclassmen what Klo - the clawed gauntlets that he had designed and forged as part of his education at Signal - could do. Feeling slightly annoyed at his brother for disappearing on him again, Colton just grumbled and ate alone as usual. Later that night, Colton was woken by a knock at the door. It was the police. PPD had received a report of trespassers in the Grimm enclosures. Arriving on the scene, they had found his brother dead in his best friend’s - Jack - arms.

 His brothers death essentially broke him for two months, during the time he rarely left their apartment other than for school and when he did, he spoke to no one other than the few close friends he had, all his other classmates had no idea how to act around him and as such never said a word to him unless he spoke to them. During his brothers funeral, Colton was seen clasping his brothers left gauntlet - the only one of them left as the beowolf alpha had eaten the other one along with his brothers right arm - it was unusual to see him without it since then.

The third month after Tyse’s death saw his return to normality, smiling and laughing, though it is suspected that he is suffering from some sort of mild psychological trauma. He has a tendancy to get absorbed in fights, almost to psychotic levels. Colton completed his training at Signal and was accepted into Beacon Academy.

Personality.
Despite being an orphan, Colton was raised with strong ideals about family, his brother taught him that it doesn't matter if you're related by blood or not, as long as they are there for you when you need it. As such, Colton has a feirce sense of duty toward any he calls a friend. This being said; after his brothers death, Colton became increasingly awkward around strangers. It wasn't as bad as some others, but it still made it difficult to break the ice and make new friends. As a child, Colton was bullied for being an orphan, once again, it was his brother that taught him that he needed to stand up for himself. This, rather mistakenly, lead Colton to beat the living daylights out of the two boys that had been picking on him. Has hated bullies ever since and will go out of his way to stop one if he sees them doing anything. Whilst being devout to his studies, he is an unimaginabley big slacker, often napping in class, only to make up for it late at night, until eventually it devolves into a cycle of late nights and class time napping. Enjoys puzzles, almost as much as tinkering and maintaining his weapons.

As a side effect of his brothers death, whenever he fights against beowolfs his judgement can become clouded by a psychotic battle lust. During these bouts of lust, he is completely aware of what is going on and is also in complete controll of his actions, however, this will not stop him from tearing each and every one he sets his hands on to pieces.

Weapons and Gear
Colton wears no combat armour, beleving that whilst he may be slightly more suceptable to hits he can dodge better without it. Colton uses his brothers left gauntlet as one of the two weapons he uses. Over the years, and as his skills in weapon crafting and dust mechanics increased, he added a reciptacle for a cut dust crystal on the back of the hand plate, allowing him to attack from a longer range than if he were just using the sharp, claw like fingers. Other than this, he uses the blade he crafted as part of his education at Signal: Dente. Dente itself is a wide bladed gladius style weapon, good for slashing and stabbing quickly. The blade can be fired from the pommel via a trigger that fires a blasting cap, launching the blade at very high velocity, remaining attached via a fifty meter long spool of high tensile wire, allowing it to be used as a grappling hook or whip.

Abilities
Colton can cook, clean and do the laundry better than most due again to the fact that he's an orphan. Excellent weapon craft for his ability level, by no means the best, but he is still capable of maintaining most weapons. Additionally, he is an amateure when it comes to dust application and use, which does lead to misshaps with the dust system in his gauntlet (He has had to chisel his lower arm out of a block of ice on more than one occasion) Whilst having the exemplary combat skills needed to be accepted into Beacon, he falls into the category of average amongst the student body. He is not as strong as some of the other males, but what he lacks in strength he makes up for in agility, able to dodge and narrowly avoid most attacks. Failing that, he knows the limit of his weapons and will use them to deflect attacks or force his adversary to back off. Academically average due to his slacker personality, and is reminded constently by teammates and teachers that if he paid more attention in class. Posses a slightly higher than normal amount of aura, which pays off in close situations, keeping him from physical harm by the narrowest of margins. Semblance is currently unkown, though is suspected to be linked to the berserker like battle-lust exhibited when fighting beowolves
