History
Esca was born as the only child of Alana Merle and Kozuki Merle and the first to be born inside the Warrior Angel Guild. Her birth has spread joy and happiness throughout the guild and mostly towards her mom and dad.

7 years past and Esca grew up happily with her family. As a child she was a highly energetic young girl, always having fun with the wizards in the guild hall. She didn't have any friends outside the guild but she has plenty of friends with the guild members and she cherished all of them as her family. She was mostly close to her father, Kozuki.

XXXXXXXXXXAbout a week after her birth her father Kozuki went on a mission but her mother Alana didn't think it was the right time yet but Kozuki went anyways. About a few days later Alana got the news that Kozuki was killed in action, leaving Esca to grow up without knowing her father.

8 years past and Esca grew up into a highly energetic young girl. She became best friends with a boy named   who was about her age. They would play around the guild hall a lot for fun. They would often fight and a each other a lot but would quickly make up and become friends again.

Esca had no idea who her father is or anything about him, and would often ask her mom about him but she wouldn't say anything but have a sad expression on her face every time she asked. One day Esca grew upset that her mom wouldn't say anything about her lost dad and yelled at her, it eventually lead to an argument with her mother. During the argument Esca felt a strange surge threw her body but more focused on arguing with her mother. She then decided to bolt during the argument and ran out of the guild hall into the city. As she wondered threw the city upset because of the fight with her mom she came across a man who recognized her as the daughter of Alana and greeter her by extending his hand to shake her hand. Esca wasn't happy to be recognized as Alana's daughter but shook the mans hand anyways. The second their hands touched a sudden feeling came upon the man, he then screamed in agony which got Esca worried. She watched as the man was suffering from pain, she tried to help but didn't know what to do. Then suddenly the man was caught on fire with black and red flames which took Esca and everyone watching by surprised. Someone ran up and poured water on the flames but it didn't go out. It wasn't long until the man was burnt to death.

Esca freaked out and ran back to the guild, thinking it was her fault. She ran to her mom Alana hopping she can help. When she got her mom she, Alana and Master Tristan Scalibur all rushed to the scene only to find the body burnt to ashes. Completely devastated, Esca tries to get past the crowd so she won't have to look at it anymore for she is reminded it was her fault, she however bumped into two other people and felt a sudden surge in her body again as the two people began to scream in agony. They fell to the ground as black-red flames engulfed the two people. Tristan and Alana were shocked about what they have saw. The other people who were watching the hole thing blamed it all on her calling her a monster or a demon. Tristan thought it was best to take her back to the guild to find answers.

When they went back to the guild they soon discovered it was a rare magic known as Chaos Magic, a magic created by demons to incinerate all of human life. No one knew what to do to prevent her from killing anyone else on accident. Alana was heart broken that her daughter has developed such a deadly magic. They tried countless spells to seal the magic away and continuing their regular routine as if nothing happened. Alana eventually grow more distant to Esca with each passing day. The seal appeared to be working until she kept getting angry by bullies and were engulfed in Chaos Magic. Eventually it became a problem they could no longer avoid. The citizens of the city wanted to drive her out of town thinking she was a demon but the guild declined saying they will not abandon a child in need of help. Esca was terrified of what might happen if the citizens were to get their hands on her.

The situation got worse when Rune Knights from the Magic Council approached the guild when they received word about a child developing such a dangerous magic. A man wearing red armor named Makoto Hisumi walked up demanding them they hand over Esca at once. Esca became frightened wondering what would if they were going to lock her up. Tristan said he would take care of this and walked out to discuss the manner with him however Esca was afraid for what might happen. So when she had an opportunity she snuck out and ran away from the guild and fled the town.

She traveled around Fiore for 4 years training to learn to control her magic but with little success until one day she wondered into a poor and run down town, and the townsmen didnt look to good, some even looked like bad news. As she wondered threw town Esca was suddenly surrounded by a group of scary men tempting to rob her or perhaps kill her and Esca was terrified. The men readied themselves and Esca covered her eyes in fear. The men were about to attack when suddenly she was rescued by a group of kids. Tho rescue was not the first thing that came to mind. It was soon revealed that the kids were wizards and fought and defeated the men. Esca was so amazed at how well they can use their magic, and wondered who they were. One of them walked up to her and told her their. The rune knights were heard from the distance so the kids began to flee and one of the kids grabbed Esca and brought her along.

They brought her to a remote place and all gathered around her. They introduced themselves as the Freedom Raiders, a group of wizard kids who are dedicated to protecting the peace and freeing lands of dark guild and evil wizards. Esca was surprised to see kids around her age who use their magic perfectly. She asked if she could join their goals hoping it'll help her gain control of her magicXXXXXXXXXX
