AMITYVILLE ACADEMY ENROLLMENT FORMName: Colette Lacroix
Nicknames: No pre-determined nicknames.
Gender: Female
Age: Seventeen
Faction/Race Reaper / Grim Reaper
Personality:
___Colette usually likes to keep to herself unless approached. Even if with friends she's usually the less talkative of the group. She doesn't believe she hates everyone and isn't shy, Colette just doesn't think talking to strangers randomly is needed. If you have any reason at all for talking to her, even if it's to ask what tree in the area is tallest, she will happily inform you. However, if you come and talk to her for no reason she'll feel uncomfortable, but will reply respectfully on default and leave it at that. She just can't seem to grasp the concept of wanting to chat with strangers or make random friends.
___Colette holds herself to high standards. She will work mercilessly to excel in her studies and takes class seriously. Class clowns or anything that impairs her learning time, even clumsy teacher, will issue a frown upon her face and show just how impatient she is. Having high standards also causes her to take a huge toll on herself when she fails. She feels embarrassment even if no one cares and strains herself to excel double for one failure, probably just stressing herself more.
___Colette's hobbies include battling working for other students to gain emblems.
___She loves the temporary high she can get from winning and the adrenaline rush of a good fight is nothing but relaxing. It doesn't much matter who or where, she'd be more than obliged to battle. However, this definitely doesn't mean she's a hot head that will pick petty fights over anything. She likes to think her battles are just practice and expressionless, but she rushes with emotions and it's easy to get a rise out of her.
___She will most definitely do work for students in exchange for emblems. These types of things would be discussed between her and the other student in private, but due to her dislike with approaching people for no reason you've got to show you have a problem that needs fixing or come to her. She wants to collect as many emblems as she can, like owning a piece of each and every student's being. It seems like nothing more than a hobby.. helping others is great, right? Maybe it just makes her feel good.
Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? Colette attends the academy to prosper her battling ability and hopefully get work experience doing various side favors for students (in turn for emblems).
Natural Ability: "Shadow shift: For a few crucial seconds, grim reapers can shift into a shadowy, wispy intangible substance. They cannot sadly, pass through walls this way."
Fear: Normally, the eyes on Colette's swords are black. Her swords never close their eyes, until they're pushed to the limit, when each sword simultaneously closes its eye and opens with with the color red - the eye color of Colette. The red eye color causes the swords' blades to envelope in flames and may give a nasty burn.
Eventually, Colette hopes to learn how to make the eyes of her swords other colors such as green, blue, or yellow.
Physical Description: 5'7" (5'9" with shoes) with average, slim body size.
Eye Colour: red
Hair Colour/Style: black Blunt bangs with long, straight hair.
Skin Colour: Pale, Caucasian flesh.
Clothing Style/Colours: Dark red hairband. Wears a red and black, strapless dress that floofs at the end and has ruffle layers underneath. A black sash with a little red decoration goes around her waist. When not in use her two swords are usually tucked in an 'X' shape on her back in the sash; however, the artist can get creative with her sword's placement. Black heel shoes, definitely not stiletto like though. She has red and black arm warmers and leg warmers; feel free to choose a style of your own. I just don't want her clothing pattern to look exactly like the gaia reference.
Extra: Colette's expression should be one of boredom/indifference, but not so much a pout that she looks snobby or cold.
References: Gaia example.

Answers to questions and extra information is posted here.__________________________Extra Information!Social, Battle, & Weapon information. S a l l y S h e e p ___It's not that she's uneasy around other characters, she just doesn't go out of her way to talk to others for no reason. She thinks talking to a complete stranger when she doesn't have to is unneeded. Like joining a class for the first time and seeing no one she knows, she'll sit in the less populated part of the class at the time and just wait for class to start. She doesn't approach strangers but she'll talk to them if they approach her to not be rude. If it happens enough she'll talk to them more when she becomes comfortable and develop some sort of relationship (not in the romance term, general relation to a character). Whether they become someone she hates or accepts is just dependent on how that character is. Like publicly egotistical and constantly rude characters are ones she'll eventually hate. ___Colette will regularly look for fights like training, practice, or her way to show she's "better" than XPerson. She's always looking for fights and also accepts anyone looking for a fight to come to her. They're not fights in the constant hate, argument, and then battle way but fights to help her abilities. Fighting is the only reason she'll loosely approach a stranger, but that's because she knows if she can battle she'll get practice out of them. She's not going to approach every moving thing on campus and ask out of the blue, but anyone showing signs of needing to fight for practice or a project she'll approach. ___She isn't going to instantly become XPerson's friend just because they battled, it's like a "strictly business" moment with her. She will talk and interact with someone but how they react to losing or winning will be a factor to how she acts toward a person. When she wins, depending on how they decided to battle, she'll normally say "That was tough." or "Good fight," something along the neutral->positive means. If she decided to fight someone because they're cocky and she wins she'll pick at them and let them know they're not that great. Being rude will lead to her reacting negatively or even being disgusted and hateful in the case that she won. Cheating and tricks is something she definitely with seethe with rage for, especially if she loses. ___When it comes to losing to someone she'll be less likely to talk to them again but still react half based on how they do. She'll say the normal good fight kind of stuff and often actually push to fight again either later or now, refusing to fight again makes her annoyed. She'll feel highly disappointed in herself for losing and try to get in more battles in hopes to win two to make up for the one time she failed. ___ Like all reapers, Colette received her weapons at "birth". ___Colette doesn't believe her weapons fail her. With her she thinks she either did horribly or luck is just a pain. Whether her fear randomly lands on something useful, she doesn't believe is the sword's choice. Say she's fighting a toxic like character and an eye becomes green which stands for poison and toxins, any bonus the element would give is pretty much useless but she wouldn't blame the sword. Yet, if they get a useful element like fire against a zombie character she would be overjoyed and praise it. So they can and may screw up, but she won't deeply acknowledge it. ___She absolutely loves her swords. Since they're living and can see she developed an even closer relationship with them. She'll praise them, polish them, sleep with them, etc. They're usually tucked against her back when not in a fight and are like eyes on the back of her head. She can't see through their eyes and they can't talk, but she's grown accustomed to their various growls and noises so say she's sitting on campus eating. If someone were to approach her to ask a question and she wasn't paying attention they would make a noise depending on how they felt about it. Someone she hates approaches they give an alarming and hateful growl or someone the swords don't mind but Colette doesn't particularly care about they'll just make normal little noises and maybe open and close their blade in happiness. Sword Information. S a l l y S h e e p
Colette's swords are living. They have their own feelings towards an individual, and they don't always match up with Colette's feelings. If a beautiful succubus approaches, Colette will not be interested or amused, yet her swords may get her attention excitedly. They have no definite gender, but they are treated as and assumed males.
They can see, though only one side at a time. If the eye is on the right side of the blade they can see to the right, but looking to the left is blocked unless they roll over to the left which then will block the right view.
The swords cannot talk, but they can give out their own growls and purrs that Colette has grown accustomed to. The can also open and close their blade like a mouth, though they cannot open it extremely wide.
Her swords do not have much ability to move. They can open and close their jaw to flop and give off movement force and can float only one foot above the ground for a very short period of time/distance (5 feet worth).

"Hm, reminds me of myself," said Audley as she folded the application into a paper airplane and launched it into the room. The Acceptance Box was always appreciative of a moving target once in awhile.
The sounds of chewing signaled its approval.

Hmm I like her personality, not approaching people she is a people watcher. Which is funny... And the collecting a bit of each person is interesting as well.
Subspecies: Yeah no other species seems to fit with her besides Mage. You could try Valkyrie but you might have to take away from some of your fears.
Fear: You might want to add a bit more to the description of it. Example: Fear: When the eye is red the sword enveloped in flame burns the opponent along with slicing them.
Weakness: The fire is not that strong so it can only give second degree burns and doesn't work against fire strong opponents.

"SNOWFLAKE!" Hellma's screech sounded throughout the office, shattering several of the ice demon's rather questionable trophies. Was toilet papering houses even a sport? "GO GET ME SOME MARSHMALLOWS. AND CHOCOLATES and should you eat even one of them I will harm you in such ways AND GRAHAM CRACKERS!"
The headmistress sat back in her chair and warmed herself by the fire. Finally, a student had proven to be slightly less useless than usual. It helped that they had yet to actually set foot in the academy of course. With a hint of a smile, Hellma relaxed by the red, flaming Acceptance Bin. With applications containing fire you could never tell what it would do, but this was rather nice.
Maybe she should order for some sausages as well...
