Fighting Style: Xiaomei is primarily a mage. She tends to stay back and let others do the heavy lifting for her while she simply aids with a little empowering and offensive magic here and there. While her strength isn't the highest, she is in fact quite a capable hand to hand fighter, having considerable experience in several schools of martial arts. So if an enemy breaks through the front lines, it is not an issue to cast empowering magic on herself and then engage the enemy long enough to allow the front lines to get back to doing their jobs. Regardless, she would prefer to keep her hands clean of heavy combat and allow the battle freaks to handle killing each other as they always have.

Skills:

MP Capacity: 200

:bulletwhite: Sword Blessing: - MP Cost: 15 - Power: :star::star-half::star-empty::star-empty::star-empty: - Empowering Magic. Doubles the STR and DEF of the target for a period of 10 minutes.

:bulletwhite: Magus Blessing - MP Cost: 15 - Power: :star::star-half::star-empty::star-empty::star-empty: - Empowering Magic. Doubles the MAG and RES of the target for a period of 10 minutes.

:bulletwhite: Speed Blessing - MP Cost: 15 - Power: :star::star-half::star-empty::star-empty::star-empty: - Empowering Magic. Doubles the SPD and DEX of the target for a period of 10 minutes.

:bulletwhite: Healing Light - MP Cost: 20 - Power: :star::star::star-half::star-empty::star-empty: - Curative Magic. Like it's namesake suggests, a healing light soothes and mends wounds as well as stops minor bleeding. Multiple broken bones and other grievous wounds will require a more specialized healer and/or a good amount of rest.

:bulletwhite: Valkyrie Veil - MP Cost: 30 - Power: :star::star::star::star-half::star-empty: - Offensive Magic. A phantom armor is summoned to bear down into the opponent with a blade of sundering holy light. Useful for targeting single foes. Takes very little time to cast, and thus, can be used in conjunction with melee attacks.

:bulletwhite: Radiant Gate - MP Cost: 60 - Power: :star::star::star::star::star: - Offensive Magic. A phantom gate is summoned, which expels a myriad of sundering holy rays upon a wide area. Useful for targeting a large group of foes. Takes a good bit of time to cast, thus, she needs to be covered by front line fighters.

:bulletblue: Tide Barrier - MP Cost: 20 - Power: :star::star::star-half::star-empty::star-empty: - Defensive and Offensive Magic. Creates a barrier of compressed water around the target, which can dissipate or deflect most attacks. Focused piercing attacks or intense flames can collapse the barrier however. It CAN potentially be used as an offensive tool by casting it on an opponent and then making it contract to crushing levels.

:bulletgreen: Slyphen Wing - MP Cost: 20 - Power: :star::star::star-half::star-empty::star-empty: - Utility Magic. Grants the target the power of flight for a period of about 10 minutes. Speed can be upwards to about 60 kph if the one granted power focuses. The spell CAN run out in mid-air, potentially causing very unfortunate drops. This spell tends to be cast only on herself for that reason as she can best gauge how much time she has.

:bulletblue::bulletgreen: Azure Devastation - MP Cost: 40 - Power: :star::star::star::star::star-empty: - Offensive Magic. Causes pillars of ice to burst upwards under targets. The spell's range can be adjusted between single and multiple targets. Time taken to cast depends on size of range.

Birthplace: Unknown

Residence: Pennute Castle

Hobbies: Technological Research and experimentation

Likes: all manner of mechanical devices, metallic materials, vast research notes, people's reactions to her pushing buttons, Leiians in general

Dislikes: Being interrupted, Pennute's Council for separating her from her precious laboratory, being asked to commit inconsequential things to memory, wasting time on things she thinks doesn't matter...which is a lot.

Personality: Xiaomei is a fickle person. She does whatever she feels like, regardless of what her superiors or subordinates say. Usually though, this is because she can think of better ways to go about what has been ordered of her. After all, she knows her field of work better than those who demand that the work be done.

She can be quite passionate about technological research and it was primarily because of her contributions that the expedition's ships were ready in time that they were. While she can be polite, patient, and forthcoming to just about anyone, she also finds complete and utter amusement in pushing people's buttons. To her, their reactions tell more about who they are as people than their words ever do. It can also be said that she values research and technological advancements over the lives of people at the end of the day and in that same vein, seeks no real meaningful human interaction.

Xiaomei can also be quite kooky, coming up with insane ideas for inventions and the like for just about any sort of situation, such as a device that 'shows moving pictures' or a device that 'stores music to be played at a later date'. Needless to say, people tend to leave her alone when she get wrapped up into the latest crazy idea of the week. The results of her attempts at making such things realities can also be seen all throughout her lab in Pennute castle. Be wary of touching them. Some might blow up unexpectedly.

All in all, Xiaomei is kind and forthcoming enough, but also a bit loopy and unpredictable. Approach with a fair bit of caution.

History:

The details of Xiaomei's birth are a complete mystery. There are no records of her birth or childhood anywhere in Pennute's archives, nor Terhwa's or La'Hansi's. She merely showed up in Pennute about five years before the expedition effort began to kick off. While the Pennute royal court and it's nobles were initially distrustful of this strange woman, she quickly proved herself to be an asset to the kingdom, making simple improvements to their existing mechanisms with methods that they had somehow overlooked. Not wanting either Terhwa or La'Hansi to potentially snatch her up, Xiaomei was eventually brought onto the Pennute Technological research team where she would then take her place as chief technological researcher.

It was there that she would spend the next few years aiding Pennute in it's technological advancements. Once the talk of expeditions to other lands and fragments came up, she was immediately put to work along with an equally elite team of brilliant minds in order to conceptualize and create the ships that all three kingdoms would need to sail out into the vast ocean, and in due time they were indeed completed with much fanfare.

...But then came the night of that ball where the Order of Veyerus struck, damaging the ships that they had worked so hard on, unleashing Eldine upon the city, as well as stealing Pennute's fragment. Despite all of these unfortunate events, Xiaomei simply found herself shrugging and returning to work. After all, why waste time bemoaning what has happened? That was time better spent doing what needed to be done. Thus, with a head held higher than the rest of her peers, work began on the ships again, and in due time, they were completed yet again. With this, Xiaomei had deemed her work on this tiresome project to be done and withdrew back into her lab for more exciting research.

She would have her way for quite a bit of time. But then word arrived back in Pennute about the results of the current expedition team's exploits. How the fragment at Acs Beluge went out of control and how they needed to work with the Order of Veyerus in order to see the crisis through to it's end. Needless to say, the powers that be were not impressed with the performance of their current expedition leader. And so, it was decided that the third prince of Pennute would be called back to Pennute and someone else sent to take his place. Someone that would not fail to live up to their expectations. ...Much to Xiaomei's dismay, she was chosen to take on this new role. Having to be dragged out of her lab kicking and screaming, she was sent off to Acs Beluge as the third prince of Pennute returned...


Other Info:

- It is rumored that Xiaomei does not eat or sleep. She never ever shows up to breakfast, lunch, dinner, or social gatherings, and no one can claim to have seen her sleep. It has become something of an urban legend in Pennute castle now.

- Cannot stand having her hair down....because it gets in the way of her research of course.

- She almost never left the castle grounds until she was made the new expedition leader. And she likely would have remained in the castle unless that happened. Apparently she was quite content with what she had and was doing.

- She can not, for the life of her, remember people's names. Even if introduced to her multiple times, she will still end up forgetting five minutes later and referring to people as 'you', a horrible mangling of their name, or simply not saying names at all.

- Despite being separated from her lab, she still resolves to continue her research out in the field, and thus can be found collecting random knick knacks for experiments in the marketplaces of whatever town or city they visit.

- She is fascinated with Leiians and when faced with one, will usually ask to 'dismantle' them and examine their innards. ...Stay away from her.

- She actually is the one who developed and maintained Klaus' weapons, Rebellion Gear and other minor offshoots that he has. But considering how loopy she can be, Klaus has begun to look elsewhere for support.

- There is a certain knight that she calls her brother despite them not being related in the least. Who the hell knows what that is about now...
