 * Nickname(s):

3) Characteristics:

 * Eyes: Blue
 * Face: Thin and pointed
 * Hair: Silver and shoulder length
 * Physique: Slender
 * Combat Outfit: A white gi and a chain shirt underneath with white martial arts pants, no shoes
 * Casual Outfit: Jeans and a gray t-shirt

4) Combat info:
 * Personality: Shiroh is a quiet guy, he isn't unfriendly, in fact he considers his entire team to be his friends and is perfectly happy to spend his time with each of them and has very little trouble making new friends, he simply doesn't speak more than he sees as necessary, often not even speaking in full sentences, though he still makes himself understood well enough, he is also known for frequent and random acts of kindness to complete strangers, can be terrifying when he's really mad
 * Background: Shiroh grew up in an orphanage, where he experienced severe neglect but very little active abuse, sometimes the people who ran the orphanage wouldn't even feed their charges, Shiroh saved up money for combat school in order to escape the orphanage, in fact, his habit of random acts of kindness stems from him wanting to keep anyone from feeling totally neglected like he did

5) Trivia:
 * Position/Class: Striker/Ninja
 * Landing strategy: Stab two knives into a tree and spiral down, if no trees are available he just lands and rolls with his aura active
 * Weapons: Thirty fold-up throwing knives concealed in his clothes, a pair of bracers that can extend to cover the knuckles on his hands, as well as a pair of greaves that leave the soles of his feet bare, but cover the backs of his feet
 * Semblance: Incredible reflexes, this is a passive effect, and is always active, this does not make him any faster, it just allows him to perceive everything around him as slightly slower than anyone else, including his own movements, it just gives him an extra two seconds to react to his surroundings, the drain on his aura is so minute that all it accomplishes is slowing his aura regeneration slightly
 * Fighting style: He uses the knives for ranged combat and uses martial arts to fight at melee range, only using the knives if something needs to be cut, or if someone is too far away to punch or kick, uses his tail in melee combat to trip opponents, or at least hit them in the face to make them hesitate briefly


 * Relationships:


 * Grenadine: his partner, they are good friends despite her rigid and militaristic upbringing, and the fact that she called him sir all through their first year and part of their second, they share a bond of mutual respect


 * Lux: He had a hard time getting Lux to trust him but now they work well together


 * Malachite: They never really had any problems, other than her habit of picking fights, and that he manages rather well when he has the opportunity to do so, she also has a habit of teasing him about being the only guy in their dorm, the only member of the team, other than himself, to actually notice his lack of a second X chromosome, or at least the only one to comment on it


 * His Team as a whole: it can get pretty uncomfortable when you are the only guy on a team otherwise full of girls, but he manages, luckily there's no romantic tensions to complicate things

 * Malachite: They are partners, and despite their drastic differences they are a very effective team, and are as close to best friends as either girl has ever had

 * Shiroh: Her leader, she respects him, but she also enjoys messing with him and making fun of the fact that he's the only guy on the team

 * Notes:


 * Tropes: Action Girl, the Tomboy half of a Tomboy and Girly Girl duo

1) Basic info:

2) Appearance:
 * Name: Grenadine Serena
 * Team/occupation: Team LTNG/Beacon Student
 * Species: Human
 * Age: 19
 * Sex: Female
 * Handedness: Right
 * Aura/Effects: Dark red

 * Misc traits:
 * Nickname(s):

3) Characteristics:
 * Height: 5'8
 * Weight: 140lbs

 * Hair: Dark red and jaw length
 * Physique: Well muscled
 * Combat Outfit: A black leotard under a midriff bearing dark red tank top and a short dark red skirt with black tights
 * Casual Outfit: A dark red t-shirt and jeans

4) Combat info:
 * Personality: Stiff, professional, overly formal and rigid
 * Background: Grenadine was raised to be a warrior, her entire family have been members of Atlas' military, or Hunters, her parents basically treated her more like a recruit than their youngest daughter, her combat outfit, which they thought wasn't professional enough, and the fact that she went to Beacon rather than Atlas' Hunter Academy are the only instances of rebellion she has ever been able to have under the thumb of her extremely controlling family, at least until her Team began to work on getting her to lighten up some, she's still stiff and militaristic, but she has learned to loosen up when the situation calls for it, even if she doesn't loosen up much

5) Trivia:
 * Position/Class: Tank/Guardian
 * Landing strategy: Activate Semblance and land
 * Weapon: Judgment's Gavel, a mace with a flanged head, which transforms into a heavy pistol, plus an unnamed heater shield
 * Semblance: Steelskin, while active this absorbs damage with minimal drain on aura, though it does make the user feel as if they had taken the damage without any protection, and the effect lasts ten seconds with a two minute recharge time
 * Fighting style: Controlled, professional, and extremely skilled, Grenadine could claim to be the best fighter among Beacon's third year students, if she cared about that, and her talent on the battlefield would back up that claim


 * Relationships:


 * Her family: all expect her to act like them, and she does for the most part, with small rebellions thrown in, though her personality is on it's way to becoming her own with the help of her team


 * Shiroh: her partner and leader, she was raised to follow orders unquestioningly and to always respect your superior officer, however Shiroh eventually broke her of her tendency to take every word out of his mouth literally, and he helped her start to become her own person, though she hasn't quite completed the change yet, they are good friends


 * Lux: At first Grenadine had trouble with the fact that Lux appeared to be an airhead on the surface, then she started seeing the Huntress beneath the bubbly, giggly teen, and it became more a problem of the fact that Lux didn't trust her comrades at first, a concept that was utterly alien to Grenadine, but they've developed a sort of truce at least


 * Malachite: Saw her rough, undisciplined behavior and found it offensive at first, now that she's loosened up a bit and come to respect her dedication and drive to help those who need it, they still argue, but it's mostly friendly bickering


 * Notes:

And here's the updated version
 * Tropes: Action Girl, the Lancer
