Personality
- Meek, quiet and submissive, Cheska reflects the soul of someone who has had a hard life that now one should have to face. In most situations she will do as she is told and will aim not to anger or agitate everyone. She will slip away as quietly as possible and will try as hard as she can to not be noticed. When she makes a friend she will open up, talk about her family, her brother and let a faint smile onto her face.
Being too scared of confrontation, this girl would do anything to avoid causing it. She will cry and grovel on her knees at the first sign of danger, or even if she was told to. Cheska would believe anything she were told by anyone in confidence. She doesn’t like to make enemies and the people she hates are done so when she is truly alone, where she can let all of her bottled up emotions out.
- Mask comes out when Cheska cannot deal with a situation in her usual manner (By avoiding it or submitting). Mask is all of Chaska’s pent up anger, her persona that she uses to defend herself in times of need. This comes out when her face is hidden behind a mask, hence the name. She is harsh, angry and bitter. The people Cheska sees as a friend will only get blunt tough love. The people that Cheska hates or to the people that are causing Cheska stress will face everything from a brutal show of force to every insult under the sun.
The Mask Persona can be called out be making Cheska put the mask on her face, or forcing the mask onto her face without consent. Once this is done though Cheska’s body will go into overdrive and the mask persona will not respond kindly. Often making a mess of the one to force this situation.
Cheska hates this side of her, her defence mechanism. She knows it is needed but cannot remember much of what happens, only flashes and bits and pieces. This can disorientate her and make her more withdrawn than she normally is once Mask has gone away.
Mask knows all Cheska knows, she is a defence mechanism and will act in Cheska’s best interests, punishing those who cause stress or harm to the body. The only way this can happen though is if Cheska put’s on her mask. (in extreme life threatening conditions the mask is not needed but Cheska has to be dead on her feet for it to happen.)
Appearance
- Cheska is as pale as snow with hair golden and flowing, the length reaching down to her lower back, curling to a flick at the bottom. Her face is much like her brothers, though it dealt with the woes of life spectacularly well. Her cheeks are soft, not showing any excess fat, giving her a perfect facial structure with full lips and a button nose. Her chin is rounded to a slight point. To top it all off she has the same golden eyes as her brother, a vibrant and bright pair golden gems. These eyes are un obscured by the messy fringe that is brushed to her left side, the rest of her face is framed by chin length bangs.
Her slender body is usually clad in red or black dresses with basic floral patterns on them; she will occasionally wear an eastern style kimono with a black upper body and red lower. The embroidery is elegant and fine. The woman’s chest is ample and large, the only place that is unlike her well-shaped body, one that was acquired with the years of being a slave.
Traits
- Enhanced Strength (Cheska inherits her strength from her twin brother who is naturally strong)
- Enhanced Agility (Cheska has the ability to move and dance in the most agile of ways)
Fighting Styles
Class E – “Chains Of Fate “: The masked entity that inhabits Cheska uses the chains that are bound to her wrists as a whip, to slash her targets, to grapple and to increase her mobility. The only reason these can be used in such an aggressive manner are due to her primal strength, this is not elegant nor refined.
Rank 0: “latching Fate”: Vizard launches the chains at her opponent aiming to either hit them in the centre of mass to cause massive damage or miss them, if she misses she drags her arms down to make her chains wrap around her opponent in some way
Rank 1: Unbound Fate!”: Vizard slams both chains down in a cross motion sending out a wave of air that slashes those it comes across with a range of 5 metres
Class E - “Samooborona”: Using her 2 metre long Nodaichi Mask will do everything in her power to obliterate everything in her path. She will do anything to get rid of her target but will not let her body get injured, if it does she will fight harder. Her sword skills whilst not great are reinforced with a primal strength and power. Somewhat like Navi she is an unconventional powerhouse.
Rank 0: Gibel’ : A single powerful slash from her lower right to her upper left aimed to push the enemy back, if not actually incapacitate them. The blade sings with the sound of a chime after this attack.
Rank 1: Gibel’ Ve Masse: Using the same attack Mask will add more power to it, making the slash fly up to 30 feet before dissipating, the chiming sound still following the attack until it hits.
Class E – “Chain Bound Samooborona”: The mask raps her chains around the hilt of the large weapon and she hurls and swings it around with ferocity and strength that can only be attained in the fury that Cheska holds deep within herself.
Rank 0: Spinning mech kolesa: Spinning around with her blade attached to her chains Mask will hit anything that is nearby with no regard as to who or what it is, this is aimed at giving the swords woman space to breathe easy.
Rank 1: Spinning mech koleso nakonets : Spinning with an intention to cause harm Mask will kick up a wind and from her a circular air slash will spread out for 5 metres.
Background
Born on drum with her brother Victor Cheska was born into the same abuse her brother was. She grew up fighting, resisting, and being a tomboy that could even beat up her brother. That was only on the rarest of times when the two were playing around and having what fun they could as kids in that kind of life. It was not long until the pair got younger siblings, Victor would become a better father figure to them, and Cheska would do everything she could to keep them all safe. Francine was always sickly and Cheska took care of her as best she could after their mother’s death. The death that made their father so much more violent than he already was.
One by one, the siblings would face the worst. First Vlad ran away, and before he was found dead Cheska herself was sold on to the Swan Slavers, a nasty group of slavers that saw the violent and tomboyish nature of Cheska a negative, before she could be sold on she needed to be tamed. It was years of beatings, lessons that taught her how to behave. She finally broke when the slavers decided that to teach her properly was to punish others. Make her watch and listen for days on end until the harsh and violent side of the girl shut off, unable to handle it all. Even the current version of the girl hates it, but now at the mere mention of anything like that makes her weep and submissive.
Cheska was 13 when she was sold and she was 17 when she was finally sold, sold to and older north blue noble. This man El Dufrante, was a lot kinder, he was never cruel and never raised a hand to the girl. He treated her well and made her feel like family. In the 3 years that he was her master Cheska was allowed to learn to cook, to dance and to sing. She did her chores to the best of her abilities and cared for him on his deathbed. It was there that she was given to his eldest son. Skel Dufrante.
As El Died Skel took everything and tossed it on its head. Cheska was beaten, told to shut up and was chained up in the kitchen, with no slack. This was her next year and a half, she was forced to live a worse life than when she was a slave, forced to do unspeakable things that tore her mind more than it was already. Cheska was only unchained when Skel travelled and needed a slave to accompany him. The pair travelled all over the north blue until 6 months before her 22nd birthday.
It was then that he announced that she was worthless, pathetic and not like the girl his father said she was. He was going to sell her back to the slavers, get his father’s money back on this worthless scum that shared the human name. It was in that night that the girl found her strength, she found the mask that distorted her. The mask that she put on was on an old set of samurai armour. The next thing Cheska knew she was adrift on a boat. A weapon by her hand and the mask on the floor, blood all over. Without knowing whay happened the girl let herself drift, not daring to pick up the cursed mask that got her in this position, she was still wearing her slave’s collar.
It was days before she was found, starving and weak by a man, he looked to be a total brute and was one of the scariest looking men around but he took her in, cared for her. He barely spoke but he gave an aura of care. When Cheska finally talked to him, he smiled and nodded, not letting his deafness get to him. He helped her get her strength back and took her towards an island where she could build her own life as a free woman. That was until the slavers caught up to them.
Here the woman was left in her boat, adrift. The man who helped her already fighting against the monsters who were chasing her, like a hero. She was taken in by the dusk pirates, who after a quick service left her abandoned on the blue sea. She was again picked up by slavers and it was then that they delivered her to her next stop on this eventful life.
