CHYRON Name: Chyron Kuno RL: Kuno Christoffel E-mail: deva@wizard.net IM Screen Name: Kuno HR ----- RANK & TRAITS Rank: 7 (Physical: 1) (Cursed: 0) --- Attributes Magic + Slow Clumsy Weak Second Sighted --- Skills Magic + ----- ATTITUDE Style: Back-Row Mage - A valuable addition to any party, especially at high levels. Knows a variety of powerful spells. However, even with the most advanced weapons and armor available, the back-row mage's combat abilities are lacking. The wise leader will place the BRM out of the line of fire, where the physically powerful members of the party can protect her while she uses her magic. --- Methods: Chyron will typically hide and snivel rather than participate in battle. However, she is not a coward and will stand up for her friends if she has to. Does not take the initiative in battle, instead reacting to what other people do. Follows orders well. ----- SPECIALS Advantages: Intense magic power and knowledge makes up for lack of physical ability Deceptively strong and durable (but not up to the standards of her rank) Can "see" things that are invisible/far away/not really there, etc --- Disadvantages: Magic requires substantial casting time Has little battle experience No physical fighting skill Is useless in her cursed form Nearly blind without her glasses on --- Techniques The Enigma of the Red Gem Casting time: 10 seconds Generic magic missile attack fired on a direct line from Chyron's finger to her target. Equivalent in power to a generic seventh rank ki blast. Lucifer's Floodgate Casting time: 30 seconds Creates a tidal wave that rushes over the battlefield. Will be "out of phase" for everyone and everything present except the spell's target(s)--it will only have physical presence for that target. The Minion of Gedis Casting time: 50 seconds Calls on the spirit of a blue dragon (not physically present, cannot be attacked) which attacks with a breath weapon to inflict lightning- elemental damage on one target. Equal in power to a generic rank 8 energy attack. The Water of Life Casting time: 65 seconds Uses her magic power to accelerate the natural healing processes of target's body. Requires continual concentration after initial casting to maintain effects. Will not work miracles. The Rescue of Orsa Casting time: 90 seconds Opens a magical gate three yards in diameter, linking wherever she is with another location. Destination can (in theory) be anywhere, in any dimension. Mainly limited to locations Chyron is familiar with. Portal can transmit a mass of up to 200 pounds at at time. The Bride in the Dark Marsh Casting time: 90 seconds Metamorphosis spell--changes one living creature into another (not necessarily a real one). Target retains all distinguishing physical characteristics, removing this spell's effectiveness for disguise or cosmetic use, but adding an element of comedy. Luwan and the Golden Dragon Casting time: 120 seconds Calls on the spirit of a gold dragon (not physically present, cannot be attacked) which attacks with a breath weapon to inflict non-elemental damage. Mass overkill spell, targeting is imprecise. Equal in power to a standard rank 9 ki attack.
