3)Characteristics

-Background: A Mistral boy, his father Oren Arferol was a pretty normal guy, working as a restaurant chef. The most special thing about him was that his Aura was unlocked, though lacked the time and interest to learn how to use it. His mother was something else however: Temperantia Arcana, an Atlesian Specialist.

Like any other kid, Avalon grew up hearing stories of Hunters and their countless battles against the fearsome Grimm. The ones that influenced Avalon the most however, where the ones of his mother, greatly skilled, strong and smart. Although they didn't see each other often due to her job, Avalon wanted to become a Hunter like her, and eventually went to Sanctum to start his training.

Once there, he focused hard on his studies, and hardly spent time with his classmates. He wanted to be an ace, like his mother. It all started to change one day, when he noticed a faunus girl being bullied after class. Following the stereotypical hero values of justice and such, he intervened and beated down the bullies before asking the girl if she was alright and asked her name, which she gave in return: Pruina Aureus. This was the start of his first real non-familial friendship.

He found out she also went to Sanctum, though she was on a different class. They often hanged out after class, and taught each other some tricks. She in particular taught him how to use Dust to effectively make spells. It all seemed fine, but it was about to get worse. Thanks to the increasing-activity of the White Fang, the anti-faunus sentiments were also on a rise, which led to Pruina getting more and more bullied. Although Avalon helped her when he could, she still suffered in the times he couldn't.

Making things worse was her increasing interest in joining the White Fang, no doubt only boosted by her bullying. Avalon tried to dissuade her, but she wasn't listening, and his attempts at persuading her to not do so only caused conflict between them. Eventually, she decided to go to one of their recruiting events. Avalon tried to stop her, but this only led to yet another fight, which eventually escalated into a real fight. Avalon tried to not hurt her, but she didn't share the merciful sentiment, and defeated him before heading to join the WF.

That in the end gave Avalon big disdain towards the WF. Avalon never forgot what happened that day, and to this day considers it his biggest failure. He constantly alternated between blaming the WF, the discrimination against Faunus, and blaming himself, and eventually, he stopped blaming, and thought-up a "solution": He would become a great Leader, political or not, and afterwards end the anti-faunus discrimination in Remnant. Although that in itself was more as a "vengeance" of sorts, and what he really wanted, even if he didn't want to admit it, was to end the WF.

He finished his studies at Sanctum and moved up to Haven Academy, becoming the leader of Team ALCT, hoping that becoming a prodigious Hunter would help him achieve his goal.

-Personality: -He is just, decisive, and sometimes fair. He always acts and speaks in an optimistic way, showing confidence in victory, although to some people, mostly Vega, this seems less like optimism and more like self-entitled ego. On the other hand, in things not involving him or his team, Avalon can at times be quite cynical in his views.

-Due to his parents being busy often, especially his mother, he put personal effort into his own training and studies, and had to teach himself many things, and as a result, he values people that put and show effort into what they do.

-Likes: Hamburgers, equality, people putting effort into things.

-Dislikes: The White Fang, inequality, lazyness.

4) Trivia:

-Notable relationships: 1) Oren Arfarol (Oren=Orange in Welsh. Arfarol means "Normal", but don't remember the language): His father. A pretty normal person, a nice guy and not much of a fighter. While Avalon doesn't hate him or anything, his father doesn't stand out much in his eyes, and often he wonders what his mother saw in him.

2) Temperantia Arcana (not supposed to fit CNR, though it arguably does if you count "Temperature"): His mother, and an Atlesian Specialist. She tries to be a bigger part of her son's life, but her job prevents her from doing that. She hates most of her family and knows how oppressive they can be, so she deliberately does what she can to isolate Avalon from her side of the family, and is the reason he uses his father's family name and why he lives in Mistral instead of Atlas. She hates her name and wants to change it, but between her family and job, she lacks the time for it.

3) Czerno Vietor: A criminal guilty of murder, son of a Hunter, who because of his age when he commited the crime, and his skill, was allowed a "second chance" as a student in Haven, though under heavy watch. While not very social, he doesn't seem exactly like a bad guy, and he has been a reliable ally in battle, though his criminal past does give Avalon second thoughts about him.

4) Fuar Mac Tíre: A dog faunus girl from a nomad tribe that was destroyed by a mighty Grimm. She puts arguably more effort than him into her training, and she is physically the strongest of the team. While her aggressive, anti-social attitude causes some discussions, she has impressed him enough to gain his respect.

5) Vega Lyre: Avalon's partner. Avalon can't quite decide on what to think of him. On one hand, they share some views towards things, and he doesn't strike him as truly malicious. On the other hand, he's the one who puts the least effort in his whole team, and isn't particularly the most reliable or trust-inspiring guy.

6) Pruina Aureus (Pruina is, according to google translate, latin for Frost, Snow, and some other things, while Aureus means Snowflake): Explained in the backstory.

-Notes: The guy I promised I would post days ago yet wasn't able (due to searching for a good name for "Vega"). The guy with whose team this song fits.

The guy is a perpetual beta; many aspects have been changed over time for multiple reasons, such as being way too similar to someone else's OC, or me getting ideas I think are better, and so on.

Hunter Extension

I) Weapons

-Name: Calesvol (Cornish name for Excalibur).

-Type: Tetrahedronic Dust Shield Blade / TDSB

-Description (no, it can't really be short): A triangular-pyramidal greatsword, about 1,40m in lenght and about 2-and-half.ft in wide at the beginning. The bottom of the blade is flat, while the top of the blade is a triangle-pyramid with the 2 faces pointing diagonally. This part rises at the beginning near the handle, and becomes less wide and tall as it reaches the tip of the blade. For good and ill, this turns the weapon more into a smashing weapon than a slashing weapon.

The blade is infused with Earth Dust, and the top, pyramidal part has multiple compartments on each face that hide small "cannons" filled with Gravity Dust. The Earth Dust makes the blade strong and sturdy enough to work as a shield, while the compartments can be opened to make them release the Gravity Dust as "wings" at each side of the blade. The latter's purpose is to extend the area covered, and can help deflect/stop projectiles.

II) Semblance

-Name: Inspiring Vortex (It may say "Arwen Pace", but I decided to give it to Avalon. Plus, I would never make the Jedi Exile, even less my Jedi Exile, into a RWBY OC. Too OP).

-Reflection of Character: He aspires to be a great leader, a strong leader capable of helping everyone, even though his reasons for it are a bit selfish.

III) Combat Info

-Class/Position: Jack-of-all-Trades.

-Landing strategy: Impale his sword into a surface or use Ice Dust to slow himself down.

-Fighting Style: He uses multiple options in battle. Normally, "slashing" with Calesvol while using it's top-side to protect himself or defend his allies. His clothes have Fire and Ice Dust woven into them, and he's good enough with Dust to perform some basic spells for ranged attacks.

While he tries to become a sort-of master-of-all, in his current state he's pretty much a jack-of-all-trades at best, not specializing in one aspect.
