Her hair is a pale blonde color which is threaded through with bright red, she is of middling height and her close fitting clothes serve to emphasize her lithe body despite her muted curves which as still appealing. One her unsleeved left arm Lýsing has a myrriad of tattoo's ink'd in gold dust, all of which involve depictions of the sun and symbols relating to it, making her arm shine brightly at times as the ink used is infused with gold pine resin which is what allows her to wield the family dust. The tattoo's can at times be hard to see, however they shine brightly when she is using her abilities.

Hunting outfit:
Lýsing wears a light brown colored jacket which falls to just bellow her hip, Before separating into two tails which fall to her ankles. Under her jacket is a dress which falls to just above her knees. At the top it is colored a dark gold before lightening to a much paler blonde color the further down you go. Sewn into the skirt of her dress, are multiple symbols representing the sun. Around her waist she wears two belts one going around her waist in a perfect circle, the other handing low on one of her hips. On her right arm is a gold bangle from which hangs a long sleeve which goes down to just past her wrist. Inscribed along the sleeve in shiny gold, are multiple symbols inscribed in gold pine resin. On her right leg a pale gold stocking which darkens to a dark gold as you go towards her foot, is pulled up to her thigh. On her other leg a similar stocking is worn loosely just bellow her knee. Her feet are encased n gold colored sandals with straps encasing up to her knee's

Casual outfit:
When neither hunting nor at school Lýsing dons a different outfit. An old slightly threadbare white t-shirt which often falls low over her shoulder exposing hone of the straps of her gold sports bra. Tight denim short shorts which go just to mid thigh, along with pale blonde flip flops on her feet.

Personality
Raised in luxury, Lýsing is still despite her journey, somewhat of a spoiled child at times. While mature for her age she has a tendancy to on occasion look down on people not raised in the same way she was, despite her current less-than-ideal status. when talking to someone who either talks down to her or doesn't show her the respect she believes she deserves Lýsing  can often become hostile and ready to fight the person in single combat. However, when talking with people whom she can relate to, and who's company she enjoy's Lýsing is a warm  happy girl who looks after her friends, and is willing to co-operate with them in any way she can to help them achieve their goals, bringing a rather happy almost jolly personality to such adventures. This strange, almost split personality can lead to people being confused about how to approch Lýsing and how to treat her, leading to have a very close group of friends including her team and a few others, with many other people considering her too aloof and scary to talk to. This however does not stop many from asking for her assistance from time to time.Also despite these personality quicks she isn't as some think, a racist, her  own  belief is that she hates everyone equally until some stand out as friends or foe.

GreatBlade:
Lýsing's primary weapon is a single edged greatsword with a 4ft long blade. along the blunt edge of the blade a cylander of metal runs down the length of the blunt edge to the hilt, which allows the blunt edge to be griped to help with blocking. The center of the blade is thicker than the rest of the blade before flattening out near the edge creating a sharp cutting edge. By running her fingers up the center of the blade Lýsing is able to activate the Gold pine resin (gold lighting dust) within the blade coating the edge in glowing golden sparks of lighting, substantially increasing the damage of the blade.

By pressing a button on the cylindrical part of the spine, a  length of metal falls out of the bottom the the blunt edge turning the sword into a halbard increasing the effective range of the weapon by another 3 ft. By pressing a button on the bottom of the extended haft of the halbard, Lýsing makes the blade fall 90 degrees so the blade becomes perpendicular to the haft. Doing this not only changes the attack pattern of the blade but also exposes a barrel which when a trigger near the bottom of the haft is pushed blasts out a short ranged burst of Gold pine resin, with an effective forward range of 3 ft and a explosion witdth of 2ft.

Sunlight spear:
Lýsing's jacket sleeve, when active allows her to use her family's Gold lighting dust (Gold Pine Resin within the family) which she has a reserve of within the sleeve of her jacket and several canisters of Gold Pine Resin, inside her jacket. When active dust passes from her jacket through the exit hole in her leather hand brace as the dust exits out of the hole Lýsing then uses her aura to focus the dust into the shape of a bolt/javelin/spear 6ft long, she then activates the dust either hurl a javelin or stabbing it into an oppenent like a spear. These spears each consume enough dust to last for 30 seconds if held, however if thrown they persist for 10 seconds before disapating. Lýsing carries enough dust on her to throw 5 of these spears. forming the spears takes about 1-2 seconds.

Semblance:
Lýsing's Semblance allows her to emit a blast of force in a dome around herself which lasts for 2 seconds. When used her semblance (Wrath) emites a dome of force  expanding to 1 meter away from her body in any direction. This emition of force  pushes away projectiles and people knocking them back. When used Lýsing emits a white light then a quick blast of white gold shines out of her blasting any projectiles caught within the dome away and knocking back any people/grimm around her. However Wrath will not blast away an object that is already stuck into her nor will it stop an attack/weapon/projectile that is within 2 inches of any part of her  body. Lýsing's Semblance is used to get enemies away from her so she is able to reasses fights from a safe distance after knocking her enemies down. Lýsing is able to use wrath once every 5 minutes.

Fighting Style:
Lýsing has a very basic battle style. She is most comfortable at close to medium/close range, using her greatblade to slash through enemies, often lodging the halbard in them then blowing them aprart with lightning blasts. When coated in Resin, Lýsing's attacks become more dangerous due to the threat of huge lighting damage. If the fight becomes to close, Lýsing can use Wrath to put some distance between her and her oponent. After wich she will often send Sunlight Spears at their face, or simple dash back towards them and attempt to skewer them. Both tactics have their merits. Wrath is a primarily defensive semblance with few offensive uses.

Other tools:
Gold Pine Resin: Gold Pine Resin, is the Sunneva family's name for the variety of lighting dust that they have created over many generations Essentually just their own kind of powdered dust. GPR has a bright gold coloration and when active gives of bright gold sparks. It isn't much stronger than regular varieties of lighting dust and when looked at closely is just regular powdered lightning dust with a stranger color than most, however it has great symbolic meaning to the family. TO the point where when children in the family come of age they are tattoo'd with GPR before they are allowed to use it. These tattoo's have no function purpose but glow with doft golden light when GPR is used near them. Lýsing uses GPR inlaid into her blade, to electrocute enemies and to form Sunlight spears via  the GRP dust in her jacket sleeve.

History
Born in Vacuo to the pretigious Sunneva family, Lýsing grew up pampered and very well off. Her family having a rich and long history winding back generations. Growing up in her family  Lýsing was taught about the sun and the  symbolic importance it has to her family, so much so that the family tradition of "Chasing the Sun" which is when a member of the family leaves home for as long as they feel they need to. During their time chasing the sun, members of the family search for an object or some kind of inner peace or they simply journey until they feel like they have gone far enough before returning home. The tradition of Chasing the sun is mostly symbolic, but is based off of a family belief that years ago, an ancestor  of theirs literally went out to chase and find the sun while helping others alongthe way. While few members of the family believe this story  it is still one of the family fables and is treated as such. Their family motto is "Find and Light your own Bonfires." Meaning that membe rs of the family need to go out into the world and journey finding themselfs forming ties with others, and having adventures.

From a young age Lýsing was brought up to seek out who she  was and find what she wanted to be. However she had a great personal belief in her own self worth and importance, so much so that she was at times sent home by angry parents the children of whom Lýsing had hurt because they had not she believed shown her the  respect that she deserved as a member of the Sunneva family. Because of thisit was decided by her mother and grandfather that after recieving her family tattoo's Lýsing should be told to go an "Chase the Sun." Leaving home to seek out herself and change her attitude.

After recieving the family tattoo's Lýsing was told to leave home, while she had completed traing at a Vacuo academy nd had taken up a family weapon to use as her own. As well as desgining and making her own garment infused with GPR, Lýsing felt like she was being treated unfairly, it was her place to stand about others as a member of the family.....Wasn't it?

After leaving home, Lýsing slowly, made her way to Vale. Often either traveling on foot, or catching a ride with those moving from city to city. Often exchanging help for a lift, such as helpnig washing the dishes at night, or exterminating grimm that came to close to the convoy. While essentually cut off from her family, Lýsing still has limited access to their coffers so if she is ever in truely dire straights she has that to fall back on however she wouldn't allow herself to unless her situation was t

ruely desprate. Another reason for hersemi willingness to leave home was  her want to find her father, whom when she was about 5 left home to as her mother said "Chase the Sun." He hasn't returned home since then and many family members believed that he has perished on his journey.

After 2 years of journeying, Lýsing is considerably more mature, however she is still prone to bouts of being petulant, and spoiled at times, and people not showing her respect, never fails to set her off in a rage. After making her way to Vale, Lýsing sought out Beacon, as the Grimm she had encountered along the way had caused her numeroud problems despite her training. Recognised by her family name, and outstanding grades from back home, Lýsing was quickly accepted into Beacon. Now she is still away from her family,  but something within her tells her that she is on the right path right now, and with her team by her side Lýsing believes she could light the greatest bonfire in family history.
