Name: Heron Mishra.
Age: 20.
Birthday: August 17th.
Gender: Female; she/her.
Species: 3/4 god, 1/4 human.
Category: Student.
Grade: Second Year.
College Major: Self Defense.
Appearance Description:
Although not massively imposing, and usually carrying herself with a slouch which just makes her seem even less imposing, Heron isn't all too average height or build wise. She stands at 5'7, a few inches above average for a girl. She has a athletically muscular build, with well toned muscles.
She has darker toned skin that only tans a little during the summer, but doesn't have any change during the winter months. It would be expected that someone like Heron would have a lot of scars, but surprisingly only has a few that seem to have come as a result of accidents rather than fights. Also doesn't have any freckles or birth marks.
Heron has a more unique hairstyle. Her hair colour is a fairly average brown colour, being a little darker. She has a fairly standard undercut, on the sides and the back. The remaining hair would reach a longer length if they weren't held up into a bun by a blue ribbon. There are a few strands at the front which can get in the way. Not that Heron cares.
Although her eyes aren't massively unusual, they are a rather bright blue.
Heron's clothing could easily be described as the most striking feature about her. The overall colour gradient of her attire is blue, with different shades that compliment each other. She usually has her arms mostly bandaged, usually to just below her biceps. Most shirts are cropped to allow her mid drift to be seen. Her leg attire is usually tucked into boots or other types of footwear. She has a long blue sash she wears around her waist, and the ends hang freely. Occasionally wears a teal necklace and/or bracelet. Has piercings in both of her ears, above and below her left eyebrow, and one on the left side of her nose.
Personality Description: Heron's personality is pretty damn bad. She's sarcastic and generally rude to people speaking to her. She seems fairly dismissive of people and has a bit of a lone wolf vibe around her. She has an air of confidence around her and absolutely appears to be cocky.
However this is actually a ploy. In reality, Heron is intelligent, especially in war strategy. She pretends to boast about her own skill to makes others underestimate her. She’s a decent judge of character and chooses her battles well. Most of the time. Half of the time... sometimes. She has a strong sense of justice, and strongly believes in the phrase 'innocent until proven guilty'.
Active Abilities: Clone - One of two abilities that Heron inherited from her father, and by extension her grandfather, is the capability to spawn a clone. She’s able to do this at will, and is able to despawn it at will. She can only spawn one, and it basically has the real life equivalent of 1hp. As soon as it receives something that is damaging to an average human, it will disappear. However, it can be made to reappear again a minute later. The clone is able to attack with the bo staff it spawns with, though the attacks are pretty soft and not very damaging. However, if the clone is able to restrain an opponent, the clone will automatically gain a strength greater than whoever is being restrained. Supernaturally strong? Now being restrained by someone supernaturally stronger. This lasts until they are no longer restraining.
Focus - When Heron chooses to, she can enter ‘focus’. Usually, time will slow down and Heron will disconnect from her body. She is able to see the situation, and can see some of the possible actions her opponent(s) could take, or reactions from her end in response. Focus blurrs out the surroundings except for Heron, her opponent(s) and strategic advantages or disadvantages. Her visualisation relies on what she knows about the other person, and her own strategic logic. If the other person doesn’t fight with strategy, has unreadable movement, and/or Heron doesn’t know much about them, her visualisations will be less accurate. This means her focus is not a perfect system. Focus can feel longer for Heron but in reality is only a second or two. Another benefit is that it prevents mind altering abilities to have an effect, prevents telepathy and does not give any emotions to empaths. She is able to activate focus and keep on fighting in real time to make use of this advantage.
However, overuse of focus without rest will basically make her ‘braindead’. It’s almost like she’s drunk, except her brain was also replaced with a rock.
Block It - Once a day, Heron is able to magicall block any single attack no matter how impossible it is to block. Even if she has no weapon or shield, no cover, she will be able to block the attack with 100% success and receive no damage. It is single use and can only block one attack. If an attack consists of a combo, she would be only to block a single strike. As soon as she uses it, she cannot use it until a full 24 hours have passed.
Passive Abilities: Rock Hard - Although not actually made of rocks, when striking at Heron it should be noted that she basically feels about as hard as a rock. She can still feel the pain, and sharper weapons will leave a cut, but it does make her more resistant. Especially in hand to hand. It also makes her body naturally heavier than she looks, but this comes with the associated downsides. She has some trouble climbing and swimming. Swimming in particular is pretty dangerous because she can just sink to the bottom of a water source like, well, a rock.
Weapon Mastery - When holding either a melee weapon, shield, or a ranged weapon like a crossbow, Heron will have proficiency equivalent to a trained user of the weapon. This isn't expert level, or notably good use, but is just the skill of someone trained to use it. This is only in effect while she is holding the weapon. As soon as she lets go of it, she does not keep any of the knowledge on how to use the weapon. If she is already skilled in a weapon, she will have expert knowledge on how to use it. She is skilled in the use of bo staff, xiphos, dory, and hoplon.
Long Lifespan - Heron has a longer lifespan and will live to be a 1000 years old. She ages slower, and will actually stop physically ageing in her thirties, however she will still die of old age when she reaches the end of her lifespan. She just won't look her age.
God Physique - Being 3 quarters god has its benefits, especially considering her mother is Athena and grandfather is Sun Wukong. This means that Heron is naturally strong, being able to 1851kg with relative ease. Her maximum is 2,900kg. She's able to run consistently at 35mph for 30 minutes before fatigue starts to set in. Heals minor wounds in a few hours, but anything worst heals the average time for a human.
Weaknesses: Head Injury - The head is already a rather vulnerable place for a human, but for Heron it's a tad worst. Any damage done to her head can be, right off the bat, pretty severe. A little gash would be equivalent to a major head wound for a regular human. Headaches and other pain in the head is pretty intense. The pain is severe enough that she is unable to do much.
Snake Allergy - Heron has a snake allergy, not in the typical sense. If she touches a snake of any kind, or a being strongly associated with them, she will break out in really bad rashes. These can be treated by the usual creams and lotions used for allergies. If any snake, or associated being, bites her, regardless of whether it is poisonous or how poisonous. It will result in a severe allergic reaction. The reaction has to be treated like a severe bee sting allergy. A bite is dangerous, especially from a venomous snake, because both the damage from the reaction and the poison will be happening at the same time. Methods to try and rid someone of an allergy does not work.
Common Magical Items: None.
Resources: Lives in a dorm with another person. Sells some arts and crafts online under various different internet alias.
Biography: Heron's own unique heritage begins more with her father. Her father was the result of a one night stand between his own mother, and Sun Wukong. Heron's grandmother did a good job of hiding her son's heritage until he was a teenager, where the scouts caught wind of them. Heron's father then moved to Manta Carlos.
He went through school and college pretty standard before he went back out into the narrow reality. During his stay in Greece, he had a short relationship with a woman. But as it got towards the end of his stay, she also told him that they couldn't stay together anymore. For Heron's father, it was a sad but calm separation. Little did he know.
Around nine months later, he had since returned to Manta Carlos. Only to be visited by some scouts who gave him a newborn baby. He then discovered that the woman he had been dating back in Greece was actually a goddess. Specifically, Athena. She had the child, and named them Heron, before leaving them with a scout in Greece with a note giving this information.
This meant Heron was born 3/4 god, and a 1/4 human. Her grandfather being Sun Wukong, and her mother Athena. Obviously, Heron's father knew that this was going to be tough.
He was absolutely correct. For a start, Heron was a pretty intelligent young kid. She learned how to walk and talk earlier than usual, so she was running around and being a menace pretty young.
She had a natural desire to fight, but also a mischievous nature. Her intelligence meant she was usually ahead of her class mates. In fact, she was moved ahead a year twice. Once during elementary, and again during middle.
When she graduated High School, she was two years younger than the majority of her classmates. She spent the next two years refining her fighting skills and weapon skills, and also her artistry. It was a pretty uneventful time. She started selling some items online to make some money.
After these two years, she was finally the same age as those who would be classmates when she decided to enrol into the college. She decided to do a Self Defence major, intending to either become an instructor or to go back to get another degree after college.
Additional Information: Able to speak English, Latin, Greek, Hindi, and Mandarin. Usually carrying a 5'4 bo staff with a blue cloth wrapped around it. It's attached to another blue cloth which is used to be slung over her back. All of her clothes are actually personally made.
