Stelle
World: Overview
Stelle is a strange young woman. She was found in the depths of a space station, during an attack by a hostile force. She awoke with only two memories. Her own name, and the word 'Kafka'. She proved to be an adept at combat, channeling the power of the Destruction Path into a metallic curio in the shape of a club and through her own body to strengthen it to absorb damage and redirect it into her own attacks. She has a child-like worldview, simple and straightforward, almost bullheaded in her determination to perform something she sets her mind to. She carries an entity known as a Stellaron within her body, a fragment of some godlike being's power bent on destroying civilisation around it.
Perks
Destruction: Offense: The ability to boost ones self, using your own life or enemy attacks
The path of Destruction is all about the offensive aspects of combat. Channeling your own life into your strikes or redirecting enemy attacks back at them through absorbing and redirecting the energy and sometimes both.
Galactic Batter< Edge-E >: A supernatural bat that can have power channeled into it to boost its power
The Bat is a Curio from Herta's collection. It can draw power from the Path of Destruction, channeled through the wielder's connection into empowering its strikes. (Edge): Pouring enough power into the Bat allows it to rend minor distortions in spacetime to strike multiple enemies, or compress its power field to cause catastrophic damage to a single target.
Trailblazer: a Path that creates paths for others, offers protection from hostile conditions
The Path of the Trailblaze is one that anyone can walk, it grants minor immunity to environmental concerns, such as extreme cold or heat, and boosts basic parameters making these Pathstriders just a little more than human.
Destruction: Defense: The ability to weather incoming attacks by regenerating through them.
The path of Destruction is self destroying. However that doesn't mean its Striders don't have a defensive side. Their bodies don't feel pain as others do, and can sometimes even spontaneously regenerate in reaction to trauma caused by incoming damage, seeming like they don't even take damage for brief periods.
Preservation Path: A flaming lance and an ability to protect
The Path of Preservation is opposite of that of Destruction. It revolves around defense and weathering the storm of battle. It provides a shield-like energy field to allies, and can mitigate incoming damage by hardening the body.
Preservation Offense< Edge-E >: Flame-based melee combat using a lance made of supernatural material
The Path of Preservation isn't simply about weathering attacks. Though it isn't the primary purpose the flaming Lance can burn enemies it hits, cause explosive bursts when charged up and summon a conflagration of flames in the name of Preservation.(Edge-E)
Complications
Impulse Controln't: Stelle has little to no impulse control
Stelle is, effectively a child in an adult's body in many ways. One of these is impulse control. She will often take the first course of action that pops into her mind and run with it until she hits a wall. Only then will she reevaluate. This can make working with her a very difficult proposition, unless you're good at improvisation.
Tick Tock: Worry of the destructive force within, driving her to reckless self-sacrifice
Stelle is very conscious that she is a ticking timebomb, the Stellaron within could activate any time and destroy anyone and everything around her. This leads to her being a little pessimistic at times, or reckless in attitude. She often feels that if she must carry this burden, she should do all she can with her life to protect and help those around her.
Kleptomaleable: Stelle has a very skewed view of 'personal property'.
When Trailblazing, one often finds discarded things on the side of the path. Chests of treasure, trashcans with something someone else felt useless inside... someone's personal luggage or delivery parcels. Stelle has difficulty distinguishing something abandoned from something just not picked up by its owner yet.
