<More as necessary>

=History=

Jax is one of a handful of guardians for a group of druids that's whole purpose is to terraform inhospitable landscapes into nourished and thriving ecosystems. This small group travels from place to place and begins a ritualistic process using a powerful ancient relic called the Terram Lapis as the conduit to transform regions from a barren wasteland to luscious forests or jungles; or right the manmade wrongs of butchered landscapes by restoring them to natural state. The ordeal takes months to years depending on the scale of the task and during the process the group and relic must remain on-site to allow the "roots" of creation to take hole so the land doesn't revert upon their departure. Currently this group is within the Pride region creating a massive jungle and have been for almost 10 years. While the the terraforming process should have concluded years ago the transition was met with resistance almost immediately after it began. This struggle comes in the form of something beneath the surface seemingly siphoning off the life giving energies the ritual is giving the soil. So while the land reshapes and life grows, it's unable to achieve self sustaining status and allow the group to leave.

The guardians Jax is a part of have been protecting the druids for centuries and this newest generation is the most battle hardened as the world goes through turbulent changes. They have fended off bandits and raids from both lecross and human origin, and from any organization that would seek to steal the relic and undermine their purpose. Yet one fateful raid undid centuries of protection and left the covenant without Terram Lapis. A raid of dozens in black armor that flew no specific banner came in the night and laid waste not just to the stalwart guardians but to the temple itself as a message.

After the raid, a mere few guardians survived and even fewer druids. The Covenant vowed to rebuild the ritual site but without Terram Lapis' power the process was slow, and soon the jungle that thousands of species and lives had come to call home would begin to regress and wilt away. With this knowledge in mind and heart, and a drawn rendering of the relic, Glenn and Jax set out in separate paths to seek out the power source and return it to its rightful place. While Nezazine, Vanaduke, and Rensly remained to protect the druids.

=Appearance=
Jax stands at a massive 7'5, has a middle eastern tan, and a muscular and stocky build. His face is hardened and without facial hair or scars. His eyes are golden brown and his hair is a fine silvery-grey that reaches shoulder length and has a natural part in the center.

Jax wears a thick black zip-up hooded trench coat that is ankle length. The hood has two white colored tassles and is otherwise unmarked. He wears ash grey gloves and travel worn matching boots.

=Persona=
Jax is stoic and possesses a strong sense of duty with a disdain for those that shirk theirs. He is able to write and theoretically speak but keeps to himself unless necessary.  He does not care for politics, grand schemes, or the concept of good and evil. Preferring to accept that the strong make rules over the meek regardless of affinity. He has been with the Covenant his entire life and would go to the ends of the earth for the druids.

[Wraith]

Apart from the under-work history, FG max is 30 and FP gain is 10/turn. There's also the matter of the weapon, which is that you can make a custom weapon aka the bardiche with stats and potentially an effect. Gigantic Spike is 20 Damage as well. Once that's all taken care of you're clear for take off.

(Deceased) Covenant of the Everflowing Terram

Elder Baraxlis, Eldest druid of the covenant. Presumed dead defending Terram Lapis from raiders.
<More as necessary>


=History=
Glenn has been a member of the Covenant of the Terram Lapis since birth. His parents were a guardian and druid respectively. This has led to him inheriting aspects of mothers druidic powers such as a longer lifespan, giving him a youthful appearance despite his age and a personality to match.

Despite his druidic power he chose to act as guardian due to his love of the sword, physical strength, and his fathers blood instilling a great satisfaction from battle. For many years since then he had successfully fended off raider and beast alike to help the Convenant perform its sacred task.

When he learne the group had decided to settle into the land of Pride is heart swelled at the opportunity to cross blades with great swordsman from all over. For years he did just that, dueling from all ranks and regions of the Pridelands and earn himself the nickname "Crushing Gale" for his fluid like swordplay and oppressive swings.

During the raid that befell the Covenant where the dark knights raided the temple Glenn had fought alongside the other guardians but was ultimately overwhelmed. His parents killed during the scuffle and most of his family butchered. When the call to find the relic was rallied he bluntly stated he was going, regardless of who else went. With a burning desire for revenge fresh in his mind he set out opposite of another guardian, Jax, to seek our the relic and bring justice to their assaulters.


=Appearance/Personality=
Glenn stands at 5'9 with a muscular physique and broad shoulders. He's been described as a beast of a man as far as appearance despite being human and while he's older in human years his druidic mothers influence has given him the youthful appearance of a man in his late teens. His hair is brown and ear length and he keeps his beard a gruff just past 5 o'clock shadow.

His clothing is sturdy leathers taken of the beasts that he's killed, skinned, tanned, and crafted himself. He left them their natural browns and wears white underarmors. His weapon of choice is a hefty greatsword that's larger than some men. Despite this size of the weapon he has been respected by the samurai of Pride for his heavy, but dextrous swordplay.

=History=
Born in Daishin, as an infant Xeel witnessed, Aloneia, a royal assassin and soon to be queen from Zephyrius perform a job against her parent and ranking official of the Daishin court. It happened while they were on a diplomatic mission to the Claw capital Maldad. When the rogue went to "tie up loose ends" that also included her, but as she brought her weapon down a flicker of light deflected the blow. Having experienced the potent magical ability and for reasons their own the Aloneia kidnapped the now orphaned child and brought her to the city of Pandemonium. Where for the next twenty years Xeel was subjected rigorous trainings, a respectable but manipulative education, and of course put to work in the city's name-sake trade.

Her younger years were spent under the instruction of three different figures; Selneia, Leon Bardock, and Aloneia until her death. In the latters will Xeel's care went to Yujia Bardock. Each of them honed Xeel's skills in their own specialty. While she was receptive to the trainings the one that she struggled most with was using her magic. As if having a mind of its own the energy sought to rebuff her at every chance, seemingly knowing the ends these means were to eventually be used toward.

She never thought it strange that the one lecturing her could not manipulate magic in the same way she could. While Xeel conjured powers in light, they did so in darkness. Often times giving her tasks that they could complete with ease but inherently she struggled to even start. There was no charity, of course. She endured the consequences of failure like any other until her ability to articulate her energy was brought in line and to their standards. The once loud rebuttal of her gift now quiet, subdued, and dominated.

Other times, in lessons where weapons were used. She was not allowed to even pickup a dagger. Yet had to perform the same actions and tasks as instructed. Her mentors offering the sage-like wisdom of "improvise". A lesson she would need more than any other in the years to come. Again doling harsh consequences every time she was unable to complete a task. Over time this manifested itself in what would become something of a reknowned trait for her, creating her own weaponry from magic.

Xeel of course remembers none of how she came to be in the city, having been abducted at the formative age of 2. All she knows is what the figures who trained, taught, and curated for her to experience. This turned the lithe woman into the killer she is today. With the heart of every lesson she endured being not to betray "the family" and to be thankful for the life she's been given.

=Appearance/Personality=
Xeel stands 5'8, has rose beige skin, and crystal blue eyes. Due to her active lifestyle she has the lithe but fit figure of an athlete. Her shoulder-length crimson hair naturally flows back minus a few loose strands that flip forwards.

Her armor is typically light and flexible. Making up what it lacks in defense with added mobility. She wears piece-meal ashen grey leathers with padding at the joints. Under her armor is a solid black jumpsuit and she wears ashen grey boots with firm soles to help in her acrobatics.

For accessories Xeel wears a small belt with many satchel pockets on it but nearly every one is empty due to her strict training of having no tools to work with. She also wears one sapphire earring on her right ear that she's had for as long as she can remember.

When not out performing jobs Xeel is a naturally charismatic and easy-going person despite having a more or less cloistered upbringing. When on the job her outlook is very business oriented. She prefers to end jobs quietly and quickly but has a temper. When backed into a corner or flustered Xeel will throw subtlety to the wind and begin using more wide spread and reckless attacks, resulting in collateral damage.

She does not second guess the tasks given to her by her now seen as parental figures, but paradoxally will scrutinize the value of jobs asked of her by others to determine how beneficial it is for her and those she ironically considers family.

[Wraith]

Damage number on the moves are accurate given the effects, so while it's worrying for you it is the life she's going to be living here. A few wording checks to make sure that some effects are working as intended is Energy Blade's wording changing to:

Effects: Increases Xeel's DP against one attack chain, and any attacks sharing that chains name, used against her by this attacks damage for next defense. Nonstackable.
Empowered: +50% damage, if used as the last attack on a turn, may be used next offense in its empowered state once without spending an action to empower.

And The Corona Downplay changing to:

Effects: +25%(50% for Empowered) damage for each magic attack used since its last usage and is used +1 time(up to +3) for every time Xeel [Empowered] an attack since its last usage, selecting different targets if desired. Resets after usage.
Empowered: Attack targets all opponents instead of one, enemies that expend VP to revive from this attack restore Xeels VP by that amount.

And also, the weapon:

Weapon: Aetheric Forger
Due to harsh training throughout her life Xeel has gained the ability to manifest weapons out of light magic.
---
Stats: +10SP
Effects: +10FP at the start of battle, increases Xeel's SP and DP by half of the amount of FP she currently has and for the rest of that offense when FP is consumed.

Xeel's first empowered attack deal x2 damage and require an additional 50% VP to recover from. After, every fourth empowered attack used naturally gains this effect again.

[shast]

Done! Something I hadn't thought of when I doodled it up, would energy blades defense effect apply to different attack chains if I used it more than once?

[Wraith]

Forgot to fix your weapon that has SP listed twice for its effect. Energy Blades would be able to apply to a different attack chain as that isn't stacking it to the same chain.
