Image
On the short side, about 5'3 and on the slender side. Pale with green eyes. Her black hair is in a constant state of chaos, so she lets it grow wild. She's also a conservative dresser, partially due to personal taste and also to hide her wings as much as possible. She wears autumnal colors, a quiver of arrows at one side, and a holster for her bow on the other.

Weapon: Dreamcatcher, a bow & arrow set - the arrows shot from it can have different abilities depending on the kind of dust they've been dipped in. For training and sparring, she's required to use dust-dipped arrows which disintegrate with a puff of smoke just short of hitting their target.

She carries at least twenty arrows at a time, and can easily make more. AND per recommended practice, the bow shoots blaster bolts by itself, but Midori's very old-school and uses the arrows whenever she can help it. Dreamcatcher was Midori's first weapon and she has grown quite attached to it. It would take something huge for her to get rid of it voluntarily.

At some point, Cloud was helping her build a more elaborate "forever weapon" that was more elaborate, but they went their separate ways before it was done. It would be called PhoenixFeather, but they couldn't decide much beyond that. Cloud insisted it should be a gun of some sort. Branwens have a thing for weapon design, but Midori was resistent as Dreamcatcher is one of her only connections to her past.

Semblance: Midori has a naturally strong aura, but doesn't quite know what her Semblance is. It's a point of confusion for her, since she never really received formal training, only what Cloud himself taught her (he never went to an Academy either, but had a lot more knowledge than she did). Right now, the large aura she has acts like a burning sun to those attuned to seeing them, but she has absolutely no clue how to harness that energy to figure out her Semblance. Initially, she uses her power to unleash destruction whenever she experiences sensory overload. Oftentimes this happens with or without her own say. Once she gets better control over her aura, who knows what powers she can wield?

Personality: Very minimalist, jittery, and easily frustrated/overwhelmed. She's insecure around people and feels truly calm only when she's alone with nature. She tends to overthink matters and most don't have the patience for it. Outside the village, her logic is easily dismissed as the ramblings of an uneducated farmgirl. Inside the village, no one has the patience to listen to her anymore.

History: Midori and Cloud Cardinal grew up with the Branwen bandit clan long before Branwens were cool. (Approximately twenty years, if you know what I mean.) Midori left the clan when she learned she'd been kidnapped from a village as a small child, to search for her parents or at least find out where she came from. Everything around her, that she'd lived on or grown up with, was stolen in some way -- and so was she.

She thought she'd found sanctuary in a small village on Patch Island, but her neighbors were prejudiced a bit more than most large human communities. Sure, she can hide her Branwen connections easily enough, but her animalistic features? Not as much.

She lives in the outskirts where the Grimm tend to hang out - a beneficial but oft-underappreciated side effect is that her self pity draws them away from the village's heart.

Up for love: Nope!
