Adventia Rouse

"I'll show you the strength of a true diamond!"

- Adventia's pre-battle catchphrase "Ha! Tiamat Jyrin? I shed the life ages ago; where the hell were you? Like I would return to your clan of shitheads and potheads. All I ever did was sit around waiting for night to come so I could sneak out to see the world. Magic isn't supposed to be restrained like this, nor are friendships! I'm tired of sitting around waiting for you to start accepting other people; which you will never do! Bisexuality, pansexuality, whatever sexuality! You always kicked them into the streets, beat them...even killed them! I hated you. You should start understanding that this world is more than just black and white."

Adventia Rouse (アドブンティア ロス Adobuntia Rosu), formerly known as Tiamat Jyrin (ティアマット ジャイリン Tiamatto Jairin), is the technician and engineer for Absolute Fighter Magician Academy, and Hitomi Arras's best friend. Originally hailing from the very influential and wealthy Jyrin Family, she was disowned for associating with lower ranked students and for disgracing the family name. Similarly to Hitomi, she was adopted by a wealthy family, and was then forced to cut off ties with them. Since she was no longer a part of the family, she felt no need to keep the name they gave her, so she changed it to Adventia Rouse, as a pun on the word 'Adventurous' for her adventurous personality.

Originally, Adventia was the Shining Diamond Phoenix (映射金剛の凰 Eisha Kongou no Ootori), a phoenix who was supposedly slain by Indra, the Burning Sun Phoenix. However, Indra had only wounded her, albeit severely. In order to survive, Adventia transformed herself into a human-phoenix hybrid, permanently. However, she lost all memories of her past during the transformation, leaving her with only magic to prove that she lived before. After that, she was frozen in the mountain she was 'slain' in for thousands of years, until the Jyrin Family discovered her whereabouts and legacy.

However, once they adopted her, they simply trained her so that they could have an additional power source. Once her training was completed, she was admitted into the academy. Despite their numerous warnings, she still befriended many low-ranked students in the academy, and shamed the family, causing them to sever ties with her. This only strengthened her resolve to befriend anyone, regardless of their social status, rank,

Appearance
Adventia's appearance makes her seem like a ditsy, carefree, and pretty much your stereotype blonde, however, this is not even close to true. She is known for her analytic and logical persona, as well as her knowledge in the engineering and technology area. But her appearance doesn't seem to show that. She is well known for her abundance of violet, plum, and purple clothes, something that Hitomi teases her about constantly. Her hair is usually tied into a small bun on the back of her head while the rest of it is in front of her shoulders. She has uneven fringed bangs that cover a tiny portion of her left eye. When it isn't up in a bun, it is usually loosely tied with a red ribbon, while the rest of it is flowing everywhere. She has lightly tanned skin and purple colored irises. Almost always resting on her shoulder, or in her hair is her pet, a small animal about the size of a child's fist. The animal's name is Kotori (小鳥 lit. Little Bird), and is affectionately nicknamed KoKo (ココ KoKo). KoKo bears the resemblance to a rabbit-like creature who has longer ears than his body. The animal has soft, white fur and turquoise-tipped ears.

Clothing-wise, Adventia generally wears more conservative clothing, as opposed to the every popular miniskirts and tank tops. She wears a white blouse as an undershirt, with a jacket-like top. The jacket is long-sleeved and cuffed and collared. There is a black stripe that runs down her arm, and is trimmed around her sleeve cuffs. The black trip also runs down her shoulders, and connects right below her breasts. The top part of her jacket is a white color, while the bottom is a dark grey. The very bottom of her jacket is cut in a petal-like fashion, an is trimmed with white. To add a bit of flavour into her jacket, she pins a violet colored bowtie on her collarbone. Underneath the jacket, she wears a pleated, loose violet colored skirt that is slightly flared. It is trimmed with a black stripe. Underneath the skirt, she wears a slightly tanned colored pantyhose. For shoes, she wears black laced-up boots that reach slightly higher than her ankles. Additionally, her two daggers, Hellsing and Vritra rest at her hips, awaiting utilization.

Personality
Adventia's most obvious personality trait is her sense of adventure, as that is her namesake. She is willing to do nearly anything to go on an adventure, or take a job from the mission board at the academy. However, she is usually stuck repairing machines and building vehicles, something that she doesn't exactly hate, but she certainly doesn't love it. Due to her being trapped indoors for a majority of her week, she often daydreams about adventures and fights she wishes she could have, but is instead stuck in a plane hangar, hammering away at machines.

Adventia can be considered one of the more 'human' and 'girl-like' characters in Awakening; there aren't many girlish females in the world anymore, considering the terrible amount of damage that has scarred the cultures and people of Earth Land. Despite this, Adventia still retains her love of photography, art, and surprisingly, shopping, a treat that is rarely given. Once in a blue moon, she and Hitomi sneak out of the academy and dine at Blue Forest, a renowned restaurant famous for their seafood. In the war torn world, she refuses to stop smiling, and always seems to have a open mind. She dismisses rumors and gossip about a person, and will go meet someone no matter what.

Girlish-part of her aside, Adventia can be very analytic and logical. She catches onto things very quickly, and can easily tell if someone is lying or trying to deceive her. She never hesitates to blurt out that somebody is lying, and can be extremely blunt when delivering the truth. Although she respects privacy, she hates it when she's lied to. Ironically, she has no problem lying to others, causing many of her peers to call her a hypocrite. However, she simply laughs it off, and uses the excuse, "I'm only human.", which is a half-lie. Adventia is a Human-Phoenix Hybrid.

She has been described as "glitchy", meaning that she seems to be all over the place, and managing to screw the simplest things up. Ironically, she manages to fix even the most complex machinery and put together the most complicated planes and armours together. Somehow, she manages to be everywhere and anywhere at the right time, even on the busiest of days. Her efficiency at doing things can annoy the hell out of some people, as there are times where she becomes too efficient to deal with. She never bothers to talk to "idiots" because they never understand a word she's saying. Although she is very patient when she deals with "mentally impaired people", she tends to get frustrated quickly, but never shows it.

After meeting Hitomi, she now has several rougher edges to her. She clicks her tongue when she's annoyed or angered, both of which are not a very pretty sight. Adventia can become very blunt when she's pushed to the "I will fucking kill you and you can't stop me" point. She'll simply walk up to whoever was unfortunate enough to anger her, and beat their ass until they no longer have one. After a while, she won't have any problem telling someone to shut up, as her patience can only go on for so long. However, she still retains her "calm and collected" persona...most of the time.

Adventia is also noted to have a deep respect for Hitomi and Eren, as the duo have become well-known throughout Earth Land for many reasons, the biggest being their resolve to protect what little they have left. However, Hitomi is known to have a slightly darker fame; she was accused of the murder of the sector's senator, and several Rune Knights. However, she was proven innocent later on, barely avoiding execution. Despite this dark stain on her record, Adventia still respects her, and admires her physical and mental prowess. Their friendship is certainly a strange one, both calling each other names that are associated with their way of dressing, and their different personalities.

Equipment
Hellsing and Vritra (ヘルシングとブリトラ Herushingu to Buritora): Hellsing and Vritra are Adventia's personal daggers, specifically created for her. These two daggers are made out of two souls that Hitomi was able to unseal from her blade, withdrawing some of her life force while she was at it. These two souls were then forged into the two daggers. These two souls are known as Vritra and Indra, the two deities that supposedly brought havoc and destruction, while the latter was always trying to fix things, until he eventually went insane, and started to join his sister in the destruction. The two beings were eventually sealed away by the first Lydius incarnation. Vritra is is the larger and stronger of the duo, while Hellsing is the swifter and more accurate. When combined, Adventia can deliver punishing, harsh blows, while forcing the opponent to constantly defend by countering their efforts with swift, accurate slices. While she was learning how to wield both of the daggers, she obligated herself to become ambidextrous in order to augment her budding skill in dual wielding. Now, she is able to fight swiftly and punishingly in order to defeat her opponent in the quickest amount of time as possible. Both daggers have identical appearances, except for their size. Vritra is the larger of the two, and is the one Adventia wields in her stronger hand; her right hand. Vritra has a pitch black grip that is "no slip", allowing Adventia to hit over and over again without a worry. Right below the hilt of both blades, there is a fragment of Adventia's soul. Her soul is represented in solidified, physical version as a diamond. This diamond can be powered up when Adventia wills it to, and it will essentially augment the durability of the blade. The dagger has rather intricate etchings carved into the blade, reminiscent to flames. The guard of the blade is exaggerated and has a mini blade curved inwards on each side, however one side is larger than the other. The actual blade of both daggers is curved inwards and sharpened to the point where just simply lightly tapping it can cause a mess of blood. This trait is a double-edged sword, as it can easily slice off Adventia's hands if she isn't careful. On the top of the blade, there are two "teeth" that are formed when part of the soul is concave. The two blades are normally resting at her sides when she is not in combat. Hellsing, the smaller of the two, has a small black leather sheath, as it is not used as often as Vritra is. Each blade has its own unique property, Vritra's being the ability to completely arm Adventia's right arm into a gauntlet like armament. This gauntlet is violet, black, and white in color, possessing dragon scale patterned layers. These layers are extremely durable, aligning with her diamond durability expectations. There is one black lacrima on the palm of the gauntlet, capable of releasing streams of plasma at her foe, annihilating them completely. Hellsing is able to generate force fields, or barriers for the better word. These barriers can be associated with Barrier Magic. With Barrier Magic, Adventia is capable of manifesting her magical energy as a shield in order to defend against the attacks of the enemy. In order to do so, she allows her magical energy to flow into her hands; which projects a field of magical force which she can manipulate into a number of relatively simple forms: rectangular planes, cylinders, globes, domes, cones, etc; it is an extremely powerful form of defense. The complexity of the shape is limited by Adventia's ability to imagine, as in, mentally visualize a particular form and keep it in sharp mental focus: not even Adventia is able to see the forms that she can create. The size of a given magical force projection is also limited by Adventia's ability to imagine. The smallest force projection she can visualize and maintain the visualization is the size of a marble. The largest solid force projection she can visualize and maintain is about 100 feet in diameter. Adventia can project larger force-objects if they are hollow. For instance, she could visualize and project a dome 1 foot thick about a mile in diameter (5,280 feet) and a dome 1 inch in thickness the user can project for about 3.2 miles. Small objects at high speeds become missiles; large objects at slow speeds become rams. Adventia can make these objects grow or shrink as desired.
