Powers and Abilities

Due to his Kitsune and Sorcerer heritage, Sydney possesses a variety of magical powers including but not limited to summoning and instant mastery of a wide variety of weapons, teleportation, telekinesis, chronokinesis, stasis suspension, necromancy and elemental manipulation.


Relationships

Ella

Sydney loved his mother very much and was despondent when she was killed as the two were extremely close. He has since overcome the despair he felt at her loss and listens to dance music whenever he thinks of her always saying "Mom would've loved Cascada."


Sora

Sydney's relationship with his father was strained as Sora abandoned him shortly after his mother died, which led to him hating his father a as child to the point of only referring to him by name. As the years passed, Sydney came to accept just how Ella's death hurt his father and his grudge has subsided especially learning that Sora died from heartbreak.


Mystery

Although the two were close when Sydney was very young, their relationship is somewhat strained due to their years apart due to the kitsune being on the run from Shiromori. When Sydney first arrived in Tempo, Mystery sensed his presence and met with him in secret and though he really wasn't sure how to feel about it at first, Sydney gradually reconnected with his uncle and became close once again.


Grandparents

Not much is known about Sydney's grandparents other than they are his mother's parents and that he went to live with them after Ella's death.


Vivi

Arthur

Sydney and Arthur get along quite well for the most part but the former's powers do kind of freak Arthur out but he still trusts Sydney nonetheless. Like Vivi, Arthur is unaware that Sydney is Mystery's nephew.


Lewis

Although Sydney is at odds with him, the young man doesn't consider Lewis an enemy but won't hesitant to stand in the vengeful ghost's way when he tries to harm other people, namely Arthur. In truth, Sydney takes pity on Lewis and more or less understands how he feels.


Shiromori

Shiromori is one of, if not the only being that Sydney absolutely despises and will go out of his way to attack the anthropomorphic bansai tree a fury unlike any he has felt before. This is due to how ruthless and callous Shiromori is in her pursuit resulted in the death of his mother.


Notes

Sydney's love of music came from his mother and as a result he associates various genres of music and songs from those genres with the people in his life. Stayin' Alive by Bee Gees = Ella, Human by Elle Goulding = Sora, Beacon by Faux Tales = Mystery, Oblivion by Grimes = Lewis, Tubthumping by Chumbawumba = Vivi, Breaking the Habit by Linkin Park = Arthur


Sydney's surname is a reference to the Allerdyce family from Robert Marasco's Burnt Offerings.


Sydney is the owner of a few successful self published IP's ranging from one shot novels to a few indie video games (all turn based RPG's) the money from which allows him to go travel around as he pleases.


Like Vivi, Sydney is half Japanese.


Although, Sydney can master any weapon he conjures he prefers weapons similar to iconic Final Fantasy weapons specifically a two-handed sword reminiscent of the Buster Sword.

Personality
The most eloquent way to describe Xana's personality is by the term "mannerable bitch" as she is polite yet snide, honest to the point of bluntness and robotic. However this is only a persona she uses to hide the stress being able to magic puts on her. Those who know Xana best describes as a friendly, caring and warmhearted person.

Morte isn't that good at fighting so he has to make use of the same hit-and-run tactics as his teammate, Teal, effortlessly ducking and weaving around the close range attacks of his more martially inclined opponents. All this while he balances using Memento Mori and Danse Macabre to hit them from a distance. And where he lacks in combat experience, Morte makes up for this with his technical knowhow and a knack for invention.

Somewhere down the line, Morte grew tired of stealing for his next meal and procured a part time job to earn money and, for a change help people. And a year later, Morte quit his job and used his money to move to Mistral to attend Haven Academy passing both his exams he was placed on Team STYX alongside Sumire Shina, Teal Gan Ceann and Xana Sirius. 

Personality
Despite growing up alone on the streets, Morte has always been a cheerful and level-headed person tackling everything he does with confidence and energy. Though he often acts to cheerful and level-headed making it seem as though he doesn't care but this is heavily untrue. As Morte genuinely cares for those few people close to him and he will risk everything he has to protect them.

Weapon: Unseelie End

But his true power lays in his Semblance, Stare which allows him the ability to render anyone he makes eye contact with blind.

Stats
STR 5/5   END 1/5
AGL 5/5   SPD 3/5
STA 5/5   AUR 3/5

Backstory
Teal was born and raised in Mistral to a clan of assassins and was trained in the art combat and stealth by his father and older sister, Saoirse with whom he was close. One day, during a training exercise with his family they were ambushed by a pack of Beowulfs
they managed to defeat most of them. But sadly, Saoirse was overwhelmed by the wolfen Grimm at which Teal's father laughed. Upon furiously inquiring about what his father found so funny, the man had the audacity to proudly confess to setting up the whole affair to kill his own daughter, who had been planning to leave the clan with her lover. Infuriated by this, Teal unleashed his Semblance on his father and pushed him directly in the path of a charging Beowulf who mauled the vile man to death. He fled from Mistral to Vacuo, only to return a year later in order to attend Haven Academy. This is where he met Sumire Shina, Morte Yoshimaru and Xana Sirius becoming the second member of Team STYX.

Teal is a calm and quiet preferring to speak when and where it feels right to him. This being said he also doesn't express his thoughts or feelings as he doesn't wish to burden others with the weight of such things.

Appearance

Sumire Shina

Hair: Light Purple
Eye: Violet
Complexion: Dark

Race: Human
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Height: 5'6

Inspiration: Shinigami

Symbol: A Violet

Semblance: Force
Generates a field of energy that Sumire can project outward or use to reinforce her weapon.

Weapon: Yugure
Yugure is a katanna with a long, thin deep violet blade and a white-and-silver handle. The blade is comprised of vorpalite, a rare metal made to literally cut through anything and it works in conjunction with Sumire's Semblance, Force (see above). 

Strengths and Weaknesses
Sumire's high points lay in her tremendous stamina and endurance which along with her relatively strength and aura control make Sumire an asset in battle. She's also incredibly intuitive being able to pick up on the current situation very quickly. But her temper is one of her worst flaws, which gets the better of her in high stress situations and causes her to fly into a blind rage. And Sumire is lacking in the speed and agility department which an observant opponent could take advantage of, if given the opportunity to do so.

Stats
STR 4/5    SPD 3/5
AGL 3/5    END 5/5
STA 5/5    AUR 4/5

Backstory
Born on an island of the southern coast of Vale called Scrap, Sumire Shina was raised by her parents, Ogami and Yoko, alongside her older brother, Karasu. Sumire's parents trained her in combat and taught her to believe in treating others equally and thinking freely. One day, an injured Faunus washed up on the shores of the island and Sumire's family took him in and nursed him back to health. And upon his recovery, the Faunus revealed himself as a member of, the now terrorist group, The White Fang and that he was attacked and left out at sea to die. The villagers of the neighboring island caught wind of this and tried to take the White Fang member by force slaughtering Karasu, Ogami and Yoko in the process. This triggered Sumire's ,then latent, Semblance and caused her to kill them all. After this, Sumire fled to Mistral where she attended Haven Academy and was made the leader of Team STYX.

Personality
The kind but brash leader of Team STYX, Sumire is an open-minded and caring person who genuinely believes in the values of equality and free thinking taught to her by her parents. Although, she is prone to fits uncontrollably blind rage which she is highly aware of, yet is unable to help herself when they occur. And the death of her family has left Sumire slightly traumatized giving her a bit of a hero complex and subsequent fear of failure. 

Appearance
Sumire is a dark skinned young woman with straight, shoulder length lavender hair and violet eyes. She wears a sleeveless white trenchcoat with her symbol on the back over a dark purple hakama with indigo pants, a pair of lilac fingerless gloves and black sandals.
