Name: Eliza Satchlyn
Age: 15
Fav. Food: Anything mom cooks
Hated Food: Cafeteria food
Hobbies:
Make believe: Yes that’s right make believe. Eliza likes to play pretend. She can be found dreaming up a world all her own in her free time. She like to sit in bed and pretend she the queen of some faraway land being carried on a pedestal for all to see or climb a tree and pretend she is queen of the fairies. She has loved fantasy and make believe for a long as she remembers and she simply isn’t willing to give it up.
Reading: It absolutely fundamental and how else would she find out about all the dreams the world has to offer. She loves to read, though she tends to stick to fantasy and sci-fi, anything the tickles the imagination is something one might find her reading.
Nature walks: Please please please let her be outside so she can commune with nature. She was raised on the farm and she is a barefoot run in the woods kind of girl. So be it in the park or some small wooded area one might find her having a walk at least once a week.
Virtues: Spontaneous: She loves to be spontaneous and thrives on adventure. She is almost completely unbothered by change and isn’t the type of person who needs to keep a schedule. Quite frankly she isn’t too fond of them and likes to just go with the flow. She tries most things at least once within reason and she hardly needs more than a moment’s notice for most things. She invite you on an adventure in a heartbeat and try to make it the best most action packed, thrill around every corner adventure you’ve ever had.
Self-assured: She knows who she is and she doesn’t want to change for anyone. She only wants to be herself and that is exactly who she intends to be. If you don’t like it, she really doesn’t care. She isn’t looking to impress anyone nor did she ask anyone’s opinion.
Kind-hearted: She is a very happy go lucky person, who is almost always smiling. She sees the good in people even when they don’t see it in themselves and truly believes in the statement that every cloud has it silver lining. She always tries to make friends, not enemies and love not war (save in her world of make believe) and she doesn’t like to see people hurt.
Flaws: Absent-minded: Eliza has her head in the clouds, she is prone to daydreaming and often simply blanks out with a rather dazed look on her face. It make for conversation that have very abrupt ends of changes in direction. She forgets rather important and simply things when overtaken by a daydream or a bout of make believe adventures.
Stubborn: When she latches onto an idea it hard for her to let go. Having grown up with a mother who was rather fond of the extraordinary and thrived on telling her daughter the most fantastical stories Eliza believe in quite a few things she shouldn’t. Magic is one of them, fairies being another, aliens and ghost. She said that there is no concrete proof against such things and until someone can prove without a doubt otherwise she will believe. She often spends hours at a time going over any myth or theory she can find on the subject and simply will not give it up. She has little ways and pet peeves and she unbending in most of them, especially using a name being something one should earn, and no reading it off a nametag is not earning it.
Naïve: She is an only child, raised on a farm for most of her life, home school and allowed to run wild, overactive imagination and all. Needless to say she has a certain innocence to her and she is very naïve about most things teenagers her age think nothing of. She doesn’t often understand the teenage and adult worlds, but she’s fine with that, no matter the potential dangers.

Knight Title: Pharos Page
Challenge: "For the Protection of Chronos!”
Uniform:
Top -- CC Bottoms -- CC Gloves -- CC Belt -- CC Shoes -- CC Shoulders -- CC Accessories -- CC
Weapon --
Page -
Cloth Rose --- A rose made entirely of cloth
A far as weapons goes its pretty useless. At best it can tickle someone a little or maybe give a slight start with a smack to the face, but not much else.
Squire -
Rose Fan [x] --- A fan that is always open and cannot to closed that essentially looks like a fan sized flattened rose and stem. It is easily held and hand and fairly light weight.
It can be used to give someone a good whack, but damage wise it would be more useful for startling or surprising someone. When waved constantly and Pharos is concentrating, it can be used to create an invisible force, that acts as a force feild and keeps the enemy from getting close to Pharos. It is only large enough to protect Pharos at this point.
The magic can be used for a total of 40 seconds.
Knight -
Ornate Hand Fan [x] --- A large fan big enough to completely obscure a face, that can now be opened and closed. It is ornately stitched with roses and small designs and very pretty to look at.
Closed it can give a good whack to someone that might just sting a little, or opened a less impacting whack the may momentarily fluster or startle its target. When waved constantly and Pharos is concentrating, it can be used to create an invisible force, that act as a force feild and keeps the enemy from getting close to Pharos. At this point it is large enough to protect Pharos and up to two other's.
The magic can be used for a total of 40 seconds.

Pharos Lighthouse of Alexandria [x]
Wonder: Pharos on the surrounding is very much a lighthouse, though it is not nearly as large as the Pharos that once stood on earth. The top of Pharos contains a fire that is kept burning constantly and a mirror that can be rotated around the fire. The bright fires could be seen and helped draw traveling diplomats into the surrounding. If you came from outside Sol System, Pharos was one of the places where you could safely pass through the Surrounding's barrier, a wayplace if you will much like a toll booth, but without monetary exchange.
The base of the lighthouse itself contains a very large courtyard in which to rest and the lighthouse was open for viewing though only Pharos could open the passage to the very top where the fire burns bright.

Hey! Not a big crit person, but a question popped into my head while reading weapon choice: why is it a tickling sensation?
-taken from wiki-
A hand-held fan is an implement used to induce an airflow for the purpose of cooling or refreshing oneself. Any broad, flat surface waved back-and-forth will create a small airflow and therefore can be considered a rudimentary fan. But generally, purpose-made hand-held fans are shaped like a sector of a circle and made of a thin material (such as paper or feathers) mounted on slats which revolve around a pivot so that it can be closed when not in use.
The movement of a hand-held fan provides cooling by increasing the airflow over the skin which in turn increases the evaporation rate of sweat droplets on the skin. This evaporation has a cooling effect due to the latent heat of evaporation of water. Fans are convenient to carry around, especially folding fans.
I mean, there have been times that I've used a fan and tickled myself, but... I think I was giddy and it was normally the air that was moving around and less of the fan itself (since you said that a simple touch would cause the sensation).
For myself, I feel like you can use Squire and Knight stage fans as... Something of guidance? Like it can summon a small/large guiding wind that boost accuracy or something? I'm thinking of this mostly because the name of your Page is coming from a lighthouse, and well, a fan produces moving air x3
JUST MY TWO CENTS... But I'm not the most knowledgeable in the shop x"D

Hey Kaori!
FOR THE POWERED SIDE
I think the weapon progression itself is fine!
However, the magic of the Chronos Knights are meant to revolve around the theme of growth, adaptation, change or protection. The tickling ability doesn't appear to fall in line with that, but I have a few suggestions I think you can do with the planned weapon progression that may work!
Perhaps when Pharos concentrates, the fan's surface area could expand and grow, becoming a sort of shield that is able to protect her from incoming attacks? It could grow to a certain diameter (probably 2-3 feet) and be able to protect her for up to forty seconds per battle.
Or perhaps as she flaps the fan and keeps focus, she is able to create a force the emits from the fan to sort of "blow away" or repel magical or physical attacks, or keep enemies at bay. Like creating a force field wall in front of her for as long as she can continue to wave the fan and up to forty seconds per battle.
Alternatively, you could figure something out with the themes of growth or adaptation or change, I am sure!
Good luck in your revisions, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
And feel free to quote me when you are finished with your revisions to call my attention over for another look!

I like the second idea so I went with that. Is what I have more correct or does it still need tweaking.

Kaori_luv I like the second idea so I went with that. Is what I have more correct or does it still need tweaking. Hey! It looks great but I would change the phrasing of the powers just a bit! Instead of saying "it can be used to create a force of winds" I would avoid sayings winds. Air is more of a Uranus theme, so I think if you were to say a "create a wind-like force" or even just "create an invisible force" or something, you'd be fine for stamp! Again, feel free to quote me when ready!
