Well there's also the summoning and time dilation glyphs, but that's neither here nor there, the augmented healing is something I included because not only would she be forcibly contorting her body in ways that would cause either death or severe permanent injury if someone outside of cirque du soleil tried it, but she lacks the shielding that most people get from their aura, meaning she takes a hit and she takes it full on.
I can make the semblance something else if you want but writing up something new will take a bit
Yes please^w^ Just let us know when the edits are done, and we'll take a look at it again.

Is that any better? It's a semblance that does one thing andis less complicated.
She manifests her aura into a single limb of the thing with greater reach while awake, or goes into a trance and lets it fully manifest.
At some point she may get the ability to fully control this is she gets some proper therapy but that's just an idea.
Username:Moonlite Runner Name:Tala Makadewa Nickname:None that you need know Race: Human Ethnicity: Caucasian Gender: Female Orientation: Heterosexual Alignment: Chaotic neutral Academy: Beacon Age: 17 Birthday: May 4th Height: 5' 7" Combat Type:mid-close range slashing/piercing, long-range explosive Weapon(s): Fallen Staris a scythe with a black snath and a silver blade. The handle of the weapon contains a rocket launcher. When needed, the handle expands to form the barrel and a second grip needed to stabilize it flips out and locks into place. While not a feature Tala wanted, the blacksmith she apprenticed under ensured that when finished the weapon would also be capable of incorporating dust.
Silent Night is a spiked Bowie knife that is onyx in color. The knife when needed can transform into a dart gun carrying four darts within its handle. She normally carries tranquilizer darts in it, but they can be switched out for those made of dust. It is held in a cross draw sheath on the back of Tala's belt for ease of access.
Dust Skill: non-existent Semblance: Undiscovered
Relationships: ❖???? - deceased father ❖Teal Makadewa - mother ❖Gerran Byzantium – role model/blacksmith ❖Sigmund Rohan - team leader STRS ❖Stella Nila - team member ❖Rainer Velaura - team member
Strengths: ✔Loyal: While extremely difficult to earn, Tala is an unyielding and protective beast of those she’s come to care for. ✔Immense Endurance: Life was always hard on her, and she adapted. It shows both physically and in her mental fortitude. ✔Hard-working: An outcast from birth, Tala, knows that good things don’t come free. One must be willing to put in the effort or it’s worth nothing in the end. ✔Inquisitive: Since childhood, she has always needed to know how things work as knowing that they do never satisfied her. It aids her both in the classroom and in the field. ✔Persistent: Once Tala’s mind is set on something, it is near impossible to dissuade her from it. It helps her to achieve her goals to the high standard she has set for herself. ✔Survival Skills: Tala grew up in a dangerous mountainous region covered by forest. Through guidance, experience, and exploration, she learned how to keep herself alive and protect herself from the native inhabitants. Now she’s using and adapting her skills to survive Beacon. ✔Combat: Danger from both grim and people was a normal part of Tala’s life growing up. Only the strong survive. She hits hard and quick, but she is capable of standing her ground taking the hits when it’s called for. ✔Weapon Versatility: Never knowing when or where she was going to need to fight, Tala learned to get creative using what was available. It also helped that Gerran forced her to learn the basics of different types of weapons before she was allowed to build her scythe.
Weaknesses: ✘Self-Reliant: Though it has kept her alive all these years, now, it works against her. It makes working with a team tough, and it keeps her from asking for help. ✘Trust Issues: Past experiences have shown her that people are more likely than not to hurt her, so she keeps everyone at a distance. It makes it difficult for her to form close relationships as she’s always second-guessing people’s motives. ✘Stubborn: She doesn’t do well with following another’s orders if she doesn’t agree with them. It makes teamwork trying at times. ✘Demeanor: The rough, cold exterior she’s built up over the years turns people off making her appear more intimidating than she actually is. ✘Unpredictable: Keeping her mood and motives close to the vest, she reacts to situations as she sees fit. Her actions to outside views don’t always make sense, and they can get her in trouble. ✘Undiscovered Semblance: When pitted against opponents with semblances, she must rely solely on her combat proficiency to see her through. She’s had no formal combat training until she arrived at Beacon, and at times it hinders her. Almost no one knows she has no idea what her semblance is, so she avoids the question when people ask playing it off as though it were a secret. ✘Coffee: She’s not allowed to have it, period. ✘Claustrophobic: Let’s just say bad memories have a way of popping up every now and then.
Likes: ✔Reading ✔Outdoors ✔Animals ✔Hot chocolate with mini marshmallows ✔Stargazing ✔Running ✔Taking things apart and putting them back together ✔Cooking while listening to music ✔Building and modifying weapons
Dislikes: ✘Dust – it’s witchcraft! ✘Elitist ✘Indoors ✘Bullies ✘Large gatherings ✘Yelling ✘Tight spaces ✘Being lied to or treated like a child ✘Sushi
Personality: Tala is a strong-willed, independent person that doesn’t shy away from obstacles. Even when it seems like all is lost, she continues to fight sometimes to her own determent. However, she doesn’t enter into a fight lightly, but will quickly step in to defend someone else who is unable to protect them self. She deals better with animals and the outdoors than she does with people. In a social setting, she tends to be silently observing and doesn’t participate in what going on unless she’s forced. She is very guarded both with her words and her feelings. A master of the poker face, one never truly knows what she’s thinking or what motivates her.
The only time her façade breaks is when she’s caught up in a good book, overly tired, in an emotionally charged situation that hits too close to home, or when she’s with people she completely trusts. When this does happen, she can turn into a polar opposite of her usual cold and distant self although it’s rare.
History: Life has never been good or easy for Tala. Born out of wedlock in a small, traditional mountain village surrounded by forest, she was seen as the black sheep. In her younger years, the weight of the disgrace her existence brought didn’t hinder her. Her mother’s limitless love and undying devotion overshadowed the darkness. She was a happy, soft-hearted, willful, and naïve child.
At five years old, her world was shattered like glass. Her grandfather, who was the village leader and despised her, took her out hiking while her mother was away. Taken deep into an unfamiliar part of the forest, they made camp in the deep recesses of a cave. However, when Tala awoke the next morning she found herself alone in the dark. Unable to see and not knowing what was going on, Tala tried to find her way out. In her attempt, she fell into a hole in the floor that connected to an underground river. Wedged in the passage, she was unable to escape or fall to her death. By the time her mother found her, she was a broken, exhausted shadow of a human being. Although, the few physical injuries healed over time, her perception was forever altered.
As the years continued to inch by, relations between Tala and her people only got worse. Ridiculed and tormented regularly, she withdrew more into herself. Her only solace was found in the books her mother would buy her, the forest, and eventually in combat. The trials she faced, however, rather than destroying her tempered her like steel into a sharp edge. She learned where and when to assert herself, and became vigilant always looking for ways to improve her reality. While her mother was her sun, the kindhearted village blacksmith became her moon. Having lost his family in an accident, he moved to the village from the city of Atlas. Unlike the others, he saw not her flaws but her potential. He was the one who taught her to forge weapons and aided in the creation of her rocket launcher scythe. While not very familiar with fighting with a scythe, he taught her what he could, and the rest she learned through trial and error garnering her a few scars. Learning to fight with a weapon breathed new life into her. It gave her a better sense of self. The blacksmith became like the father she’d never had that her mother rarely spoke of. She only knew a few details here and there about her biological father ever wondering who he was and what he was like. At one point, her mother tried to contact him, and received a letter from an associate in response informing her that he had died.
Eventually, events transpired that forced her to make the decision to leave the village. Never knowing her father, she sought the one place she might gain a better understanding of him and hone her skills in battle.

Dislikes:
✘ Ignorance
✘ Dirt
✘ Snow
✘ Being Touched Without Warrant
Personality:
❖ He's a very arrogant character in the ways of his combat and in his heritage. Being raised as the trophy child made him into an elitist of sorts so he's presents himself as a bit of a douchecanoe but it's that arrogance that is his one of his greatest strengths and weaknesses. He's very brave and headstrong but he also can be disliked and ill sought for a team or operation (granted this will change the more he interacts with others).
Another thing about Rainer is that his wit and instincts are sharp so he does have very good judgement in most situations. Underneath the attitude, he is very receptive to others that grows close with and will defend those he trusts with little to no hesitation. He's quite emotional too granted on a lower key should he not be with his allies.
In battle, he pulls no punches; he's quick to analyze the enemy and use his agility to strike weaknesses and weave away for the final blow. He's a smart and capable fighter despite his lower strength grade. Should he be prone to frustration however he's liable to make mistakes and get reckless.
History:
❖ Being born with the traits of a peacock faunus all while having dove faunus parents, one would expect Rainer to have a difficult upbringing...however for this stylish hunstman it was the opposite. Rainer Velaura, lives a boujee and particular lifestyle. Originally born and raised in Vacuo the difficult environment and community played a good part in shaping him into the person he is today but what really was the true contributing factor were his parents. Raised a trophy child Rainer was given anything he wanted whenever he wanted and as such he has everything but for Rainer there was point when having everything wasn't enough and he wanted to pursue something else. On a day in his youth a pack of Grimm were spotted approaching his home town and that's when he saw -them- a group of 4 hunters that came forth fought off the Grimm and were showered with praise. It was at that moment that Rainer knew what he wanted more than anything; to become a huntsman.
Tapping into his Parent's support and his family heirlooms Rainer started his journey, from training with his grandfather's bow to constructing a weapon that fit him to learning the fundamentals of dust from his parents and much more. For years he's been training to become a huntsman that know one would forget and he set his sight on Beacon academy, a place where legends hail.

I've seen the edits^^; Thank you 1. Her Academy is still blank. As I saw, it mentions she's going to one in her bio, so please choose one and fill out the slot in the profile. 2. We feel a little more comfortable with her semblance, but if you'd be willing to narrow down the full being's reach to 15ft [it's got gangley arms, don't it? lol] and by proxy the single limb's reach to 35-ish ft, that'd be great~
Username: thirtyspacechickens-go Name: Hazel Merah ( "Hazel" describing a light brown color, with "Merah" being Indonesian for red ) Nickname: Haze Race: Human ( left leg is robotic ) Ethnicity: Mixed (Remnant equivalent of Asian-Indian) Gender: Male Orientation: Bisexual Alignment: Lawful Good Academy: Beacon Age: 18 Birthday: August 1st Height: 6'0'' Combat Type: Close range, hand-to-hand, melee/ Medium-long range, ballistics, melee Weapon(s): "Jeet Kune Do" ( the name for a hybrid of martial arts and philosophy, created by Bruce Lee ). A large, thick pair of predominantly metal, 22 inch tonfa that he uses for close range fighting and melee attacks. They can also be used as shielding. On the handles, near his thumbs, there are three buttons. The first button detaches the large parts of the weapons, but they stay attached by chains, so he can use them for blunt, medium ranged attacks. The second button activates a specially built mechanism that shifts the centers to open up, forming each tonfa into grenade launchers; they have three rounds each, for a total of six grenades, usually filled with dust. The third button allows both tonfa flatten and morph to be connected to form a large shield, because you never know if you'll need some good defense. They are, as mentioned, predominantly a strong yet malleable metal, but there is a deep red wooden inlay that swirls and wraps around each tonfa, adding a personal flair to them.
His robotic leg doesn't offer much in the way of fighting. Its useful in that it doesn't hurt when it gets hit, and it can sacrificed in a pinch. It does, though, pack a heavier hit than his other leg. Its not like he can jump higher or shoot bullets out of it. To be honest, he's weighed the idea of enhancing his leg a few times. The thought of weaponizing his robotic limb is tantalizing, but he hasn't gotten around to actually doing it. Dust Skill: ❖ Ice: Low-Level Skill ❖ Gravity: Moderate Skill ❖ Burn: Moderate-High Skill ❖ Lightning: Moderate-Low Skill Semblance: ❖ Soak: Hazel gained a hereditary semblance through his biological father's bloodline. To put it plainly, he can absorb another person's semblance, or rather their aura, and adapt it to use as his own. The specifics as to how it works, though, are a little more complicated. He has to have skin-to-skin contact with someone, at least one palm pressed flat against them, in order for his semblance to work. It takes a fair amount of time, relatively, for the transfer to process; 15 seconds. It doesn't sound like a long time, but in the heat of battle, every second counts. This prolonged, direct contact allows interaction between Hazel and his target's auras. Hazel's own aura adapts to the other's like a virus mutating in reaction to a vaccine. In all respects, he soaks up a little bit of the other person's aura into his own and their semblance is similarly absorbed. If he doesn't know what a person's semblance does, there's a high chance he won't know what to do with it. Therefore, he tends to get to know people before inheriting their semblance. He usually wears gloves to he doesn't accidentally grab anyone and absorb theirs. Another thing, while he can soak up someone's semblance without their okay, if they notice and catch on, they can break the connection to stop the transfer, or knock Hazel unconscious and he will not have absorbed their power. In the instance of a target with a broken aura, he is unable to use his semblance on them, as there is nothing for his own aura to soak up. In the same respect, if Hazel's aura breaks, he loses whichever semblance he had stored away at that time and his semblance returns to a neutral state. There is no time limit as to how long he can possess a semblance, so he tends to adopt his teammate's in between battles, but if he sees an interesting one being used, he will take the chance to shake that person's hand. Only one semblance can be soaked at a time, multiple cannot be stacked. He can, however, turn his semblance off and sort of "refresh it" into a neutral state. He doesn't gain anything from this, but its more of a meditative practice that he does.
Strengths: ✔ Defense: Having extensively trained in martial arts, Hazel is more adept at defensive and avoidance styles than heavy hits. ✔ Adaptable: He specifically designed his weapons so they'd have a multitude of range adaptations. He doesn't like feeling trapped. ✔ Endurance: Since he was young, Hazel trained his body to be able to withstand enormous stress. Being prepared is always key. ✔ Teamwork: Not one to try and outshine others or put himself at the center of attention, Hazel is good at listening and cooperating.
Weaknesses: ✘ Semblance: Thought he is well-versed in using his semblance, the fact that it relies on others can be tedious and reckless, at times. ✘ Long-range Aim: With the style of his long range weapon-forms, targeting isn't very necessary, so his general aim isn't very polished. ✘ One Track Mind: When he gets into a fight, he focuses mainly on the foes before him, not the possible ones that may come from behind. ✘ Protective: Though he wouldn't describe himself as chivalrous or brave, Hazel is the type to defend the defenseless, no questions asked.
Likes: ✔ Fast-paced fights ✔ Learning new styles ✔ Hand-to-hand combat ✔ Sleeping outdoors ✔ Early morning jogs ✔ Meditation
❖ Hazel is a rather approachable person and is a very calming presence to be around. He's welcoming of all, enjoys swapping life stories, and definitely isn't shy about approaching others. He'll carry on a conversation for hours, if you'll let him. He has the mentality that no one is a stranger. Though, he is rather philosophical, and will not hesitate to question a person's judgments and morals out of the blue. He's been told that its rude to do something like that, but Hazel just sees it as a regular conversation topic. But, he's been trying to keep conversations "light." Even when he is actively doing something like sparring or speaking, he almost looks at rest, or rather at peace; like a light breeze could knock him over. During sparring sessions, he can usually be seen with a warm smile, like the one he wears during interactions with others. Some compare him to a monk, or a sage, but Hazel doesn't care to adopt any labels for himself. He just is. He's like a blade of grass caught in a gust of wind, dancing with the rest with a free ease.
History: ❖ To tell his story, we first have to go back to the generation before him. Hazel's birth mother, Lee-Hoi, hails from Mistral. She traveled to Vacuo to attend Shade Academy in her teenage years. It was a tradition in their family to travel away from their hometown once they hit a certain age, and it just so happened that that age coincided with her attending a Hunting Academy. Once at Shade, Lee-Hoi was placed on a team with Ebony Thistle, Ginger Locke, and Honey Monroe to form Team EGHL (Eggshell). The team grew close and it didn't take long for their tight knit group to become a family in its own right. Even after graduation, they all lived together and worked together as Hunter and Huntresses. In between all of this, attending Shade and graduation and becoming professionals, Lee-Hoi and Honey fell in love; the two women were especially inseparable after that. Long down the road, they decided that they wanted a child so they asked the only person they really trusted to help them: Ebony Thistle. Long story short, he provided the help necessary to impregnate Lee-Hoi, and poof Hazel was born nine months later. He served to only bring Team EGHL closer together as the four of them practically raised him as a unit. About four years after his birth, Ebony and Ginger wound up getting married and wanted a child of their own, though Ginger would discover that she couldn't bare children. So, they did the sensible thing, and they asked Lee-Hoi and Honey for help. Honey opted to be their surrogate, producing Hazel's half-sister to be Ebony and Ginger's child. Her name would be Lillie. His family is hard to follow, a little convoluted, but it was happy and it worked.
❖ Hazel happened to inherit Ebony's lineage-based semblance, so he trained under the man for that, but his main core training was guided by Lee-Hoi. She was a martial arts and defense-heavy fighter and she passed on her masterful knowledge to her son. They spent a lot of time practicing self defense and guiding others' hits, rather than blocking or absorbing blows. Hazel was naturally nimble so he had no issues with this; he was a natural. At least, that's what his mother always said. His other mother, Honey, was the one to instill a strong sense of morality and habitual practices into him. Honey's style of fighting was more offensive and brawler-based, but she kept herself composed through meditation. She channeled her negative feelings through that, so that "my fighting won't be shrouded in rage, but in wisdom." This base, along with the rigid code the came with Lee-Hoi's martial arts, would raise Hazel up be a rather balanced individual. He easily reflects on himself and his life, but it almost made his attitude a little too at ease. As a result, he gets comfortable with other people very easily, and has a knack of asking invasive questions. Its a blessing and a curse, having an open book as a companion. The only thing of real note Hazel would bring up if you asked would be the story behind his leg. When he was twelve, and Lillie was eight, the two children went out exploring on their own. All was well until Lillie tripped and skinned her knees. Her tears and woes brought forth a juvenile Boarbatusk, enticed by the young girl's negativity.
❖ Hazel fought it off until Lillie was able to stand and run for help. By the time his parents arrived, Hazel's leg was mangled in the creature's tusks. When they got there, he was repeatedly slamming his fists into the beast's eyes, keeping it at bay until Honey separated them. The experience didn't so much traumatize Hazel as it did offer a learning experience, and pushed him to be able to help others against the Grimm. The time came for Hazel to follow his family's tradition, the same one that brought Lee-Hoi to Vacuo in the first place. He had been attending the combat school, passing his courses with ease, when he sat down to decide which Academy he would attend. Something about Beacon Academy in Vale called out to him. All the schools were different from Shade, but there was a different essence to Beacon... so, that was where he decided to spend his time. He spent his last year in Vacuo training harder than he ever had, upgrading his weapon and honing his grasp over his semblance. He even practiced with lightning dust, something he'd never bothered with before. Once Hazel turned seventeen, he traveled alone to Vale and was admitted into Beacon Academy. He was placed on a team after his initiation process during his first year, and is just now beginning his second year at the Academy.

soooo if you don't care too much for the "soak" semblance, i included a back up under the spoiler below that's a little less OP i think c; but i tried to give it some weakness and downplay, as i have with my other characters, but like i said, just in case~ i could honestly go with either semblance, they're both cool lol
❖ Bide: Hazel can enter a meditative state and open his mind's third eye, or that's how he explains it, anyway. In this state, an invisible barrier shields Hazel from any direct attacks. He is in a complete trance when he does this, so he can't move and he can't communicate. Basically, he stays like that for up to a minute at the most and stores energy, then awakens from his meditation and can aim a concentrated burst of energy from his "third eye." Think: the barrier and trance are like the Avatar state for Aang, and the burst of energy is like a powerful ki blast from DBZ. I figure its not a double-use semblance because the first part builds up the ultimate use of "Bide."

Sorry if I looked like I wasn't looking at this. I'll login all sneaky-like at work to read stuff but can't really post well on my phone *cries* Anyway! I actually like Soak more than I do Bide lol The only thing I'd say is change the wording a little bit/add something. While it requires skin contact, I think it'd be more... appropriate to mention aura; so him touching another person allows his aura to interact with theirs. That being said, if someone's aura is broken, then Hazel wouldn't be able to use his semblance. If that's something you'd be up for^w^
oh no no you're fine c: and awesome~~ lol i loved the thought of soak but didn't know if it was too eeeeeh, lmao. and i edited the description a bit, and underlined the new stuff c; i hope its a little better with those few sentences~ i do like the clarification of auras in relation to his/others' semblances, so thanks for the suggestions<33 if i didn't hit the nail on the head, lemme know~
i'm glad you like him c: <33

Maelstrom and Hellstorm-A dual set of semi-automatic high-powered pistols which fire as fast as she can pull the trigger.Of course the weapons are capable of dust use Dust Skill:Steam Dust-Adept Lightning Dust-Expert Burn Dust-Adept Ice Dust-Novice Semblance:Shocking Development-A semblance activated by physical contact with a piece of understood machinery,it improves a function that doesnt affect the outer appearance of a machine,such as the outer plating,but boosts an already present function such as rate of fire for firearms,she has a relatively long window of time to use it(at least it feels like a long time to her while fighting) for a maximum of fifteen minutes.The activation of her semblance is displayed by a brief flash of electricity in a limited area,which she could use on its own in a more controlled way if necessary
Strengths: ✔Genius-Her intelligence is far above the average for her age,being a cut above the intelligence of some full grown hunters as well due to home schooling from her father who shares this trait ✔Immense Strength-While not quite matching Blitz in strength,who she had trained with for a long time,she has still developed a devastating amount of strength for having such a small stature ✔Tinkering-She likely got this from her father,she's quite skilled at modifying and even creating machinery,she's adjusted(and improved upon) her fathers design for turrets and even made them portable ✔Height-She's quite comfortable with her height,even making use of some of the advantages her small size has given her ✔Sidearms-Especially the ones just for her,she's quite accurate with small firearms and the rate at which she can fire them is incredible ✔Reflexes-As it would make sense,her reaction speed is quite high as to make her iaido style much more effective in combat
Weaknesses: ✘Speed-She's never been all that fast,nor is she good at handling high speed opponents.She has found a way around her own speed though with the use of some equipment ✘Insecure-Her height doesn't bother her,she's come to terms with that much,though she is concerned about her own bodily development compared to the development of other females ✘Scatterbrained-Her thoughts go at a million miles per hour,highly unorganized and unfocused ✘Hand to hand-While she did train her physical strength alongside Blitz,she only spent time learning the basic lessons so she's not the best at it ✘Cooking-She's never attempted to learn how to cook,at all,its best to just keep her away from any sort of cooking appliance ✘Dogs-She's deathly terrified of dogs,which is odd because beowolves nor wolf faunus bother her whatsoever
Likes: ✔ Machinery ✔Lots of Rice ✔Apples ✔Cherries ✔Shopping ✔Eating with Chopsticks ✔Romance Novels ✔Guys Clothes ✔Cute & Small things ✔Tea ✔Video Games
Dislikes: ✘ Dogs ✘Spicy Foods ✘Iced Tea ✘Horror Movies ✘Mistreatment of Faunus ✘Losing Good Ideas ✘Broken Machines ✘Being Scared ✘Silence ✘Bad Jokes
Personality: ❖ In contrast to Blitz,she's actually quite the happy person and often has a slight blush to her cheeks,along with a smile.She gets quite attached to each of her creations,the ones that work on their own anyway and gets embarrassed when people point that fact out
History: ❖She was born in Atlas,on the same day and in the same hospital as Blitz,placing the two together since birth and marking the beginning of a beautiful friendship that lasts as long as the two have lived and perhaps for as long as they will live.
Since around age five she has always been highly interested in her fathers line of work,wanting to make her own tech that would be revered for many years to come,while she was no where near being able to do that now since she's only five,her father immediately set to assist her get to that point by homeschooling her.Her father was also a hunter,which she had wished to become as well,admiring Hunters because of the stories of strength she's heard from her parents.
Forward three years and Kiro and Blitz have begun spending time together,having become the best of friends.Blitz had managed to convince his father to train Kiro alongside him,letting the two of them hang around each other more often.Her own fathers mentioned she may be the youngest in the history of their family to receive the family blade,already having gotten strong enough to hold it.
Forward six years and her intelligence and strength has surpassed that of most kids her age,aside from a specific few.Her schedule is now filled with lessons fro her father,her aunt,physical training with Blitz father and the occasional shopping trip with her mother.The lessons from her aunt were to give her the proper skills needed to use the family blade,her aunts also the one who gave her a different blade to use alongside the one thats being passed down
Going ahead two more years,she's developed her mind and skill quite well,having reached a high level of intelligence and even making of few of her own inventions,although nothing many people would be impressed with,like her sword sheathe,dust grenades,portable automated turrets and a crude but useful multitool.It was a year later that Kiro and Blitz had formed a plan to go to Atlas Academy together.
Finally onto the present,her training with her family has come to an end and her first year in the academy is beginning.In the months leading up to her enrollment she's done nothing but build up her stock of turrets and other tools,including some things made by her father,seeing the academy as the best way to showcase some tech.
