Corelyn jen Bellor:
Corelyn is an Imperial Animatus - a Pureblooded Imperial soldier who uses magitek equipment to emulate magic - who wields a gunrapier. Much of her close-quarters combat is an elegant dance that combines a childhood of ballet and dancing with her training in foils and rapiers. Following the successful completion and approval of Project Anima, her gunrapier, Dianthus, has been modified to attach to a small, construct-driven device that charges the firearm portion of her blade in order to fire rounds that trigger aetherial reactions catalysed in the hovering bit-like device. Corelyn is also skilled with firearms, but prefers her rapier and Animatus equipment. She is a trained soldier and is very effective in combat.
Hali Naras:
Hali has been trained by Immortals from the nation of Thavnair in Blue Magic: surviving attacks by certain aetherially-aspected creatures and beasts, and often slaying them to add their essence to her own soul, strengthening a force known as the Beast within herself and keeping to a perilous and often-maddening balance to maintain control of her own soul. She operated, often, on pure willpower, pushing through her limits - physical, mental, emotional, and aetherial - until she is at the breaking point. Her melee skills are awkward and often amateur, but with the element of surprise afforded by her magic, as well as the power drawn from the Beast, she is more than capable of holding her own. Though she is not an experienced combatant, her sheer willpower and determination often carry her through the roughest battles, often long enough for luck to take her side. However, it's not uncommon that the poor Raen is completely steamrolled by more experienced fighters, especially when unable to augment her abilities magically.
Dail'a Naras:
Dail'a is a self-proclaimed "blademaster" and "duelist", almost always equipped with a weighty wealth of bladed weaponry: a bastard sword at one hip, several hidden daggers, and a greatsword at his back. For backup, he even sometimes has a few grenades dangling from his other hip. He prefers to keep to his longsword with a hand free for manoeuvres in combat. He will switch weapons on a whim, oftentimes, just dropping or throwing them. Even without weapons, he is a force to be reckoned with, the miqo'te's ability - and propensity - to brawl with fighters twice his size often serving him well. Dail'a spends much of his time seeking out strong opponents to test and improve himself. Fighting is everything to the Keeper, and as such, he is an incredibly effective melee fighter. However, he has few methods to counter magic, and is not at all skilled with it, himself, preferring to just hit things until they fall over.
Rhali Zhujo:
The Raen Serpent Reaver Navigator is a trained Sharlayan astrologian, and as such, spends much of her time with her globe spinning and cards flying. She prefers to let others do her fighting for the most part, despite her love of fighting, and will stand behind the front lines in order to twist the fates to her allies' benefit or warn them of ill fates ahead. Despite her reliance on magic, though, she is fairly effective in a fist-fight, and the tall Auri woman packs a surprising punch.
Neilas sas Seles:
The fallen Tribunus of the Xth Imperial Legion's Research and Development Cohort prefers to get up close and personal. The entirety of his armour is outfitted in extendable bladed attachments - arms, legs, hands, feet, even shoulders, can etend blades that make him a difficult opponent. Combined with his surprisingly graceful style of kickboxing, inspired by some form of foreign dance, the Garlean is capable of turning himself into a whirling dervish of bladed limbs. His gauntlets are also possessed. each with a loading and firing mechanism for several shotgun shells, which he often employs in combat to augment the deadly dance of fists and feet. Neilas is a competent fighter, but infinitely prefers manipulation and command, getting others to do his dirty work for him.
