Name: Jeanne Boucher
Nickname: Jennie, but only a few people are allowed this
Age: 17
Birthday: October 31
Sign: Scorpio
Gemstone: Bloodstone
Blood Type: O
Fav. Food: Crawfish étouffée
Hated Food: Anything mild in flavor. Jeanne really loves spice in her foods.
School: St-Magsdalena's Seminary
Hobbies:
Tabletop War Games || Jeanne's absolute favorite thing in the world is Warhammer. Specifically, Warhammer 40,000. While she likes and enjoys other war games (and collects and paints her own miniatures), Warhammer is her favorite and the one she comes back to time and time again. She has branched out a little from strict war games to general tabletop RPGs, starting with the Warhammer ones (she can't help it, the universe is her favorite), she prefers to command her little armies and sweep away her enemies. Other players often find her particularly ruthless playstyle a bit unsettling.
Live-Action War Games || As much as she loves war on the table, she loves it even more when she's in the midst of it. Jeanne is an avid participant in LARPs, especially combative ones. She has to purposely limit herself in these, so that she doesn't injure other players, and she finds that a little frustrating, but it's fun nonetheless! Plus, it's a good way to practice her Krav Maga outside class, even if she can't go all-out.
Krav Maga || Jeanne is a brown belt in Krav Maga, and has been studying since the age of seven when her mother decided that her daughter needed to learn to defend herself. She took to it extremely well - enough so that even though it's somewhat non-standard at her level, her teacher has allowed her to instruct some of the lower-level classes. She works mostly with other women who, like her, are learning it for self-defense. The focus on quick incapacitation and efficiency in takedowns is probably her favorite thing about this martial art, and she has displayed no interest in learning any other ones.
Knife Collecting || Jeanne loves knives. She really, really, really loves knives. In fact, she has a very large collection of all types and styles squirreled away in her bedroom. Her mother has given up trying to clear it out; Jeanne points out, rationally, that they can be used for self-defense, and many of the knives she owns are also very artistic. She regularly shops online for new ones, and most of her savings from her work as an instructor go to them.
Virtues:
Focused || If Jeanne wants something done, she gets it done. She doesn't allow herself to be distracted by anything short of what she considers a real emergency - or physical needs like food and sleep. While she desires to get things done, she doesn't want to sacrifice her health to do it!
Natural Leader || Jeanne does well in leadership positions, whether it be coordinating a group for a project or leading an assault in a LARP. She slips into the fore almost without thinking, and starts delegating like she's been doing it her whole life - but she's never a bullying or rude leader, preferring to persuade. She has a definite talent for talking people around to her point of view.
People Reader || Jeanne is good at reading people and recognizing their emotions. Even though she's not an emotional person herself, she can pick them out in others, and she often uses that to talk people around, but she also uses it to be a comforting presence in someone's life - or to pick out lies. Friends tend to admire this ability, and more than once she's been asked to play "living lie detector" for a friend who suspects a significant other of cheating.
Flaws:
Cold || Jeanne is very rarely emotional about anything, and this means she has trouble connecting with people. While she can fake it fairly well, especially when she needs to win someone over, Jeanne's emotions never quite ring real. This makes her offputting to deal with when she isn't trying to actively get someone to do what she wants. For the most part, it simply doesn't bother her - Jeanne doesn't feel like she needs people, so pushing them away isn't something she necessarily considers bad.
Cruel || Though she is generally quiet about it, Jeanne takes quite a bit of delight in hurting others. She channels it through fighting bullies and sometimes, in the evenings, wandering streets pretending to be drunk and waiting for someone to try and harass her. However, no matter what, it always slips and shows - she'll be a bit too nasty with someone who is supposed to be a friend, a bit too aggressive with a student she thinks can "take it," or a bit too menacing at the wrong time. It's led to her having a reputation as a fighter.
Results-Oriented || "The ends justify the means." This is Jeanne's life creed. She believes that no matter what you do to reach a goal, it is justified by the accomplishment. This means she is often willing to do things others would consider "extreme" or even "illegal" without batting an eyelash, and these tendencies tend to make people extremely wary of her.

 Senshi: Sailor Penthesilea, Senshi of War
Challenge: "The fires of battle burn inside me! In the name of Penthesilea, it's time to go to war!"
Fuku Colour:
Main Color: Red-brown
Secondary Color: Steel grey
Fuku:
Plz see pretty concept art by Parue!
Attacks:
Sailor Scout Attack: Penthesilea Call to Arms!
Penthesilea folds her hands in front of her as if she were praying and closes her eyes, speaking the name of the attack. Upon the last word, she opens her eyes and reaches out, and a longsword made of red energy appears in her hand. She slashes it towards one target within six feet of her and red energy flies from the blade towards the target. The force with which it strikes depends on how long the battle has been going on, from a slight smack to enough to knock someone off their feet or knock the wind out of them. Penthesilea can use this attack twice per battle.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Penthesilea Song of War!
Penthesilea folds her hands in front of her as if she were praying and closes her eyes, speaking the name of the attack. Upon the last word, she opens her eyes and and a b*****d sword made of red energy appears in her hand. She slashes it up to twice, one for each target. Targets must be within six feet of her. Red energy flies from the blade towards the target(s). The force with which it strikes depends on how long the battle has been going on, from a slight smack to enough to knock someone off their feet or knock the wind out of them. Penthesilea can use this attack twice per battle.
Eternal Sailor Attack: Penthesilea Total War!
Sailor Penthesilea raises her hands above her head hands closed into fists and wrists crossed, and they glow red. She turns and begins to say the name of her attack, bringing her hands down, and upon the last word, stops, and a large broadsword made of red energy appears in her hands. She stabs it into the ground, and a barrier of red energy flies up at a radius of five feet. Everyone inside - allies, enemies, and Penthesilea included - is caught up in a vision of a war long past - any one that occured earlier than 1000 AD - and any injuries experienced in the vision are reflected on their real bodies in lessened form (slashes become scratches, blunt or penetrating wounds are bruises, et cetera; there's a lot of room for player creativity in how the injuries translate and what the affected characters see!). Objectively the visions last for thirty seconds, but subjectively they can run for quite some time, and during the entire time frame, those experiencing the vision cannot move or react to the outside world - however, they are protected by Penthesilea's barrier. Penthesilea can use this once per battle.

Family
Delphine Boucher, mother - 36 years of age, had Jennie with an unknown man she met while celebrating her eighteenth birthday. Born and raised in New Orleans, she moved to Destiny City and opened a creole food restaurant, called Jennie's Place after her daughter. The restaurant has been reasonably successful, and Delphine's food has received high praise.
Miscellaneous Info
Jennie grew up in New Orleans and considers it her home, even if she moved to Destiny City at 13.
Jennie was sent to St. Mag's after an incident in which a boy got a little too pushy and touchy with her in a hallway. She threatened him with a boxcutter and was promptly expelled for having a weapon on school property. She still regrets not being able to carry out her threat.
Jeanne considers herself a lapsed Catholic and has some interest in New Orleans voodoo culture.
Jennie has a strange birthmark on her chest that resembles a stab wound.
"When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, 'Come and see.' Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword."
— Revelation 6:3-4

Hi bbygurl~ Let's get right to it :3 Civilian SideHobbies look great! Virtues: Look good to me~ Flaws: Cold - For the most part this flaw is fine, I mostly just want to know how she deals with being offputting? Does she care? Does she struggle to make friends? Or is it something that she just sort of is and does without remorse? Everything else looks good! Senshi SideFuku looks amazing, love itttt~ Attacks While I think the attacks themselves are fine, I mostly just wonder how they relate to her sphere of war? I get that the longer she has been fighting the more powerful the strikes are, but I really just don't see how energy hitting people is related to her sphere at all. If you can convince me that they are War related (besides just the fact that you shoot/hit people in war XD) then I have no problem stamping them.

For her Super attack- it says she can slash up to twice, one for each target within six feet of her. "Each target" makes me think anyone that is within 6 feet of her... But she can only slash twice, so I'm confused XD So can she basically just slash two people for each time the attack is used? And not two slashes on the same person? Just want to be clear on how many people she can attack with this~

Tweaked to clarify - it's two people, and they have to be within six feet of her!

Howdy, Song! Most of her profile looks great to me (I love her senshi design!) so I'll make this quick! My only question lies in her eternal attack; during the illusion, what type of war does everyone envision? Is there a specific era or themed warfare that they might hallucinate (I figure it will be at least 1000 years old, but just wondering if there was some uniformity to what they hallucinate or if they could imagine any battle at least over a thousand years old). Additionally, if they choose to run from the vision, if they leave the five foot radius does the hallucination end or do they only have to be in the radius when the casting begins for it to take full effect?
