CHARACTER NAME: Yang Xiao Long
CHARACTER SOURCE: RWBY(Vol 1-2)
CHARACTER HISTORY:
Yang Xiao Long is the blonde beauty of RWBY. A half-sister to Ruby Rose, her mother left her at a young age, same as her sister. Her main aspiration is to find her mother, or what happened to her. She was trained by Qrow, her hunter uncle. After training to potential, she found herself in Beacon Academy, where she would train to defend the world from the forces of Grimm. Though, Yang’s motives were different. Her time at Beacon was meant to hone her combat prowess to eventually find her mother, Raven. Still, she searches for her, unable to believe that Raven was dead.
Yang entered the Omniverse after a food fight with a group of friends, where she was knocked so high in the air, she never came down.(This was just after the end of Volume 1) After falling unconscious in midair, she wound up before Omni himself.
PERSONALITY
Yang could be described as, by her own voice actor, “A person who would teach you to swim by pushing you in the water.” She is brash, relentless and reckless, however, it seems to work perfectly for her. That is, until she loses her cool. When she is overtaken, Yang will hardly switch tactics, if not even become even more reckless to the point of destroying the combat area in collateral. That being said, Yang is still the pun/fun loving huntress with a good heart, looking to do some good in the world while also finding her long lost mother in the process.

MOVES:
Ember Celica
Required - Ranged; Physical Strength
Optional - Super Jumping, Burst Movement
Cost (600)
The Ember Celica is wrist mounted shotgun gauntlet that, when idle, look like a pair of bracelets to unsuspecting foes. Those who make fun of such deadly weaponry will come to find themselves on the business end of Yang’s fists. The gauntlets not only function as decent protection from simple attacks, such as swords, but enhances the potential of the golden-beauty’s melee ability. And, if bludgeoning people with well crafted steel isn’t good enough, Yang can shoot shotgun bullets from them as well.
Ember Celica functions well in close and long range in it’s gun form, as they are both useable as long as it is retracted. The gun holds twenty-four shots per gauntlet, adding up to forty-eight in total. When in close range, Yang can trigger a function on her gauntlets that allow her to fire upon force. When her shots connect with something, a shot will be fired. Though, these ‘shots’ are assume not to be bullets, but more likely those of ‘force’ similar to that of a Dragonball Ki-Blast. These shots are extremely simple, roughly about two feet in diameter. They travel completely straight at the speed of an arrow until they meet a target, but come weaker the further they travel. Around 100 feet is when they would begin to be half as strong as normal. They usually take Yang about three seconds to reload, and she always carries more belts of ammo in her pouch.(Around six, so three for each gun) A belt of ammo takes around twenty seconds to summon.
Yang is seen constantly using Ember Celica to gain advantages in place of wasting ammo, such as feats like move quickly in short bursts, or jumping extremely high with numerous shots.
Aura(Yang Version)
Required - Physical Strength
Cost (300)
A constantly defensive barrier of manifested willpower. This ‘barrier’ protects it’s ‘wearer’ from direct damage in their stead. It is shown to be relatively weak but can recharge over time if they don’t take damage over sometime. Yang’s aura is shown to be one of the toughest in the series, rarely depleting, but has a slower regeneration than a normal hunter. The amazing feature of Yang’s aura comes from her semblance, as all semblances consume aura. Yang’s semblance seems to be reversed compared to others. Instead of using aura to activate a semblance, Yang’s semblance activates the more her aura is depleted, gradually gaining more power as she sustains more damage.(This is flavor unless used with a power-up) Even still, an aura can protect from cuts and bruises while active. The aura is strong enough to take ten hits from normal attacks(Equal to her defense) before depleting. While the aura is active, Yang cannot concentrate on other techniques that would require such attention(like using her semblance). Aura begins to recharge after ten seconds of not sustaining damage, but it recharges slowly. It takes ten minutes to recharge from fully being depleted, and cannot extend past the user’s body at all.
