Description

Shes back! :dummy:

Name: Niobe
Age: 21
Height: 5' 7"
Species: Human

Personality: Niobe is a very happy and cheerful person who does her best to see the good in everything. She loves making friends and she will talk your ear off if you let her. She always puts others first, helping them with whatever she can, even if it puts her at the disadvantage. She is very sweet and caring, chivalrous, energetic, selfless, she has a soft spot for children, and she is very curious, which makes her quite easily distracted and sidetracked. She is also fairly gullible and easily tricked if people pretend to be nice, because she believes there is good in everyone, but she isnt stupid. She trusts much too easily. She is not scared very easily though. If she knows she doesnt stand any chance at all and is by herself, she has no problem running. But if she is protecting someone, even if there is no way to win, she will never abandon them, and will fight as long as she can.

Short history-ish thing:
-Niobe is a first born princess who wants nothing to do with the crown. (she has a younger sister who is more than happy to take over for her) Her family never really has time for one another, parents ruling a kingdom and all, and her sister being a power hungry little thing, so Niobe likes to sneak out of the country and travel around. She is hardly ever missed, but she doesnt mind too terribly.
-In her country, at the age of 10, you are allowed to buy some form of magic for yourself. It is a process that is very stressful on the body, so you can only do it every 10 years, and its not cheep. Not only do you have to pay the which or wizard casting the spell, but it also takes something random from you as well. Sometimes its noticeable, sometimes its not. When Niobe was 10, her parents bought her the magic in her hands, but what it took from her was the ability to speak English, her native language. For some reason, the only thing she could speak after that was Icelandic, which caused quite a problem. When she finally turned 20, Niobe went back and bought magic that fixed her language skills, so she can now speak English again, and at first it didnt seem to have taken anything from her. But over the following year, Niobe's right eye has started losing its ability to see. Right now, its almost useless because she can only see fuzzy shapes and forms. She cant tell what it is she is looking at, no matter how close she gets. So she relies heavily on her left eye, which is currently working. Eventually when the sight in her right eye goes black, her left eye will start to give out too. This is her personal wish for winning the tournament, to get her sight back. But she wouldnt dare tell anyone she is going blind. She wouldnt want to be a hindrance.

Abilities/Fighting style:
-Niobe is a mechanical genius. She can build anything. Lasers, robots, guns, buildings, vehicles, extra arms, teleports, anything. To help with this, she has a special magic in her hands that allows her to either form a tool of her choice out of thin air, or use her hands in place of that tool. For example, she can pull out a wrench from nowhere, or her hands can heat up to extreme temperatures for welding purposes. For the pulling out of nowhere, its like she has an invisible bag. She can also put things in there that she finds along her journeys. That way she can build and invent things without having to physically carry around large amounts of scrap metal, light bulbs, wire, nuts and bolts, etc. So she can magic her tools and supplies in and out of this "space" of hers.
-Niobe doesnt like to fight. She will try to talk everything out first. If she HAS to fight, she will be ridiculously fair and give plenty of chances for the opposing party to give up. She is very fast, preferring ranged attacks and traps rather than up close battles of strength. She is of average strength, so overpowering someone usually is not an option.
-She likes to use what she builds to fight, and if for some reason she doesnt have anything built at the moment, she will use her building tools. Ex: Blow torch, giant wrench,
all that fun stuff.
-Hurting people is her last resort, even when fighting. Killing she will never do unless there is NO OTHER OPTION EVEN REMOTELY POSSIBLE.

(I will prolly keep adding to these as i think of them)
Weaknesses: -Gullible, distracted easily, too trusting, not very strong physically, right eye almost blind

Strengths: Can build anything (though it still takes some time), fast,

Likes: Teaspoons, bells♥, honey, and peppermint

Dislikes: hurting others, beets
