Chrysos Aggelos

"Flying too close to the sun, the burning light singed his wings, and he fell."



Clothes:
A pack on his back with a sheath for his swords and holding the collapsible staff-part that they attach to over a long white trenchcoat with gold trim that can be detached into three pieces, a hood, a jacket, and something resembling a skirt/apron. He wears light silver armor covering his chest under his jacket, and armor of the same color over the jacket on his shoulders. He wears a gold belt with white loops around his waist, and multiple belts around his legs with various pockets to store weaponry. His pants are black skinny jeans, with gold string stitched into the seams, and his shoes are black combat boots with laces. His emblem is on the pack on his back as well as on a locket on the necklace he wears that has a picture of people in it.

Distinguishing Features/Markings
There is a scar that goes all the way from his left forehead to near the top of his chin on the right side of his face. He has large white wings that leave a trail of golden glitter as he walks, and are extremely difficult to deal with when sitting down in a small space.

Personality
Chrys has always been the daring go-getter of the group, always trying new things even without prior consent of the people above him. Even when in battle, Chrys takes a vigilante/bravado role, in which he's willing to sacrifice his own health to protect those around him. But, when alone, he's frequently seen looking at the picture in the locket hanging around his neck, or weeping over an old book that he keeps in a chest by his bed in his dorm. He also has a history of self-harm, and if seen without his coat, numerous scars litter his arms. If you look closely enough at his wings, you can tell at one point he tried to cut them off, to be like a human. His dreams are often nightmares, things from his past coming back to haunt him before he wakes up and puts on a happy face for the rest of the world.

Chrys' quirks encompass a broad range of things, as in touching people's faces, nudging them with his nose, and hugs; lots, and lots of hugs. He's extremely touchy-feely and is comfortable with eating after total strangers if hungry enough. He also loves to sing, and is often doing it in rather inappropriate places, like the supermarket or a school hallway. He's also left-handed, and prefers the left side of his body in general for weaponry and hand-to-hand combat. Chrys loves reading and doodling, often seen with a sketchbook or novel in his hand, sometimes even both. The male is extremely particular about his locket, and never takes it off, not even once; he almost punched someone in the face when they tried to take it off of him.

Primary Weapons
A DCXS (Dust Chamber Xiphos Staff) named 'Enigmatic Crescendo'. Each Xiphos has six Dust Crystal Chambers in it that provide a variety of different effects.

Enigmatic Crescendo
Green: A wind-tunnel effect when channeled through the blade, creates a torrent of winds that injure the foe when struck, but when channeled through a sigil, it causes a tornado to appear, or something to launch the target in the air. Using the sigil on a gun, the bullet is engulfed in an air current that increases its speed.

White: A sheer kinetic energy effect, when channeled into the blade it magnifies the force of each blow, but when used with his semblance it can be used defensively, like a shield, and then magnify what it absorbed into a white beam that he calls 'Starlight Excalibur.'

Red: It covers the blade in fire when used directly alongside it, but can do so much more when used with his semblance. It frequently launches fireballs, or when used in tandem with green, creates a flaming tornado that burns its foes. Using a sigil on a gun, the bullets are encased with fire.

Yellow: When channeled through the blade, it creates a high voltage strike that electrocutes the target upon landing, but when used with his semblance, it creates a thunderstorm effect, lightning bolts striking wherever this sigil appears. Used in tandem with green, it can create a mini typhoon that quickly throws targets far away. If used with bullets, they become electrically charged and shock the target when landing.

Violet: While, being channelled through the blade, it creates a poisoning effect, slowly sapping the target's health when struck. Used with his semblance, it creates a smokescreen of sorts, allowing for quick defeat or escape. It also poisons bullets when used with a gun.

Blue: A water effect, when channeled through the blade it makes a deadly trail of high-speed water as the staff spins or the sword strikes, and when used alongside a gun, each bullet is enveloped in water before they hit their target. When used with his semblance, it can cause torrential rain or tidal waves. Combined with wind, it makes ice crystals that shoot from the ground or surround the injury placed by Enigma Crescendo. It can also make a blizzard or snow.

Secondary Weapons
A set of dual pistols, one gold and one silver, named 'Grapho' and 'Lego', respectively. They are loaded with Dust magazines and are only used when Chrys' sword has been exhausted or is out of reach.

Semblance
Sigil; Chrys' semblance creates glyphs that cause weather, atmospheric, or elemental augmentation, even though for a short time. It also enables him to stack effects together, as mentioned before with the 'Fire tornado' scenario. Also, all of the Dust colors have a 'finishing move' similar to Starlight Excalibur where they absorb leftover, trace amounts of Dust around the area from previous combat and manifest it into a giant orb that shoots out a deadly laser. The coloration and element of the orb matches the Dust that is currently being used.

Abilities
Chrys is extremely skilled at acrobatics and parkour, being able to easily jump roofs and tumble down ramps. He also has increased pain resistance/endurance and is usually seen using his wings as a quick form of cover before attacking. His wings do not allow for flight, but still serve somewhat of a purpose when being a damage buffer.

Before White Fang
Chrysos was born in Mistral on August 28th to Sora and Maria Aggelos. He had an older brother, Crimson, and an older sister, Raven. His family was all faunus, notably avian, and middle class. They knew there would be pain when his wings started to grow, and stocked up on baby-safe pain relievers at the store. Soon, Chrys had a beautiful pair of white wings, like his mother. They raised him the best they could, and though Chrys was a happy child, he was a lonely one.

Around the age of seven, his siblings got around to 16 and left home to be trained as Hunters like their parents. Chrys now didn't even have his siblings to poke fun at him or mess around with, so he grew more secluded and lonely. Three years later, Kris' parents were called into action as Hunters once again, informed that a 'large threat' had surfaced near the border. When his parent's didn't come back in a few months, his Aunt eventually decided to let him go to Vale with her and took him in.

During White Fang
After being raised by his Aunt in Vale for a year, Chrys realized he had a bit more freedom and had been strolling in downtown one day when he noticed a rally by the White Fang. Everything he had ever heard about it was bad - terrorists, burglaries, murders. But none of these stories seemed to be exemplified in the demonstration that Chrys was observing: a non-violent protest. So, he walked up to one of the protesters, grabbed a flyer, and went to the meeting that night.

When he arrived, he was handed a mask, and it was revealed to him that everyone inside was wearing masks of the same nature over their eyes. To him, it did seem a bit cult-like, but soon their leader rallied him to action with an inspirational speech that everyone deserved to be treated equally in this world and they should not have to stand for the scrutiny they were currently experiencing.

Unfortunately, Chrys joined after the change in leadership, and soon was sent on his first mission, albeit not having any weapons, they were fortunate to lend him a pair of guns and a glove that would magnify his semblance. Upon activating the AI, it listed its basic functions and told him its name; and after meeting his partner Clarence, they were informed that their mission was to successfully stop a Dust train from reaching its destination.

The first mission was a bit hard on him, as he came back with the scar that remains on his face from getting too close to one of the security androids and allowing it to cut him, but after a while, Chrys got used to it and was sent out into the field once again. This time, they were ordered on guard duty outside the compound, and he ended up learning about the Grimm after killing some while his partner explained to him that they were creatures of darkness whose only existence was to be destroyed by mankind.

After this mission, Chrys was shaken up and went home on a leave of absence to relax before he came back. It was around this time that his Aunt gave him Enigmatic Crescendo and a locket with a picture of his family in it, telling him that his parents had left various gifts for him and to give them each to him when she deemed he was ready. After being sent back to the White Fang, of which his Aunt knew nothing of, Chrys used Enigmatic Crescendo as his main weapon, and it was on his 16th birthday that Chrys received his first Dust crystals and modified rounds from his partner.

It was another year after he was sent out on his next mission, but this is one he was weary of because there was no briefing before he had been sent out. Chrys asked his partner, but Clarence told him that the higher-ups wanted to keep it a secret, and so he patiently waited until he noticed where they were flying over. To his knowledge, this was the place that Chrys knew his siblings were currently staying at, and upon landing, he noticed that another of the White Fang had disabled the security system. Walking inside, he felt uncomfortable to be in their home without them knowing, and soon started to feel dizzy, the feeling growing stronger as he got to their bedroom. Stumbling into the room, his sister Raven woke up and turned on the light, Chrys telling them to run and Clarence soon breaking through the window. Chyrs' brother, Crimson, in the next room over, rushes in and sees Chrys dazed with an unfamiliar presence looming over Raven, kicking them back out of the window and yelling at Chrys to get out.

It was that night after his de-briefing that he turned in his guns and the glove they had given him, and started a long journey back home.

After White Fang
After coming home, Chrys had eventually figured out that his siblings had changed their contact information and moved without telling him, but he didn't mind, he deserved it. The male felt the need to wipe his slate clean, to begin anew, and so he enrolled for Beacon Academy, the best of the best in Vale, or at least what his Aunt told him. After getting in, his Aunt's last present for him was a journal that was written by his parents containing tips and pick-me-ups for if he decided to follow in their footsteps. Someday, he hopes to find his parents and his siblings, and redeem himself in all of their eyes.
