Cuivre Adel (Based on dark chocolate easter bunnies)

Name Inspiration: ‘Cuivre’ means copper in French

Nickname(s): ‘Cui’, ‘Tiny’ and ‘Coffee Cafe’ by anyone

Iolite-isms: Buck Tooth, Copycat, Copper Nails, Scalder, Cape-ist, Great Escape

Languages: Valean

Gender: Male

Species: Rabbit Faunus

Aura Colour: Blue

Schools and Team: Pharos Academy (combat school), Beacon Academy (Academy)/Leader of Team CRSO (Crusoe)

Bestie Better Than The Restie: Atsuibane Adel, Opal Grey

Homeplace: Vale

Orientation: Homosexual Homoromantic

Semblance: Satchel, a semblance that gives Cuivre the ability to replicate an opponent’s fighting style and techniques by coming into contact that the target opponent has come into contact with. The target must have come into direct contact with the acquired Dust at at least some point before Cuivre snatches it. However, he can only replicate one fighting style at a time, so if he wishes to go back to a previous style, he must touch the target’s Dust again. 

Weapon: Chai Tea, a satchel that is able to unravel to reveal a camera. Whilst a satchel, it is extremely compact and dense yet simultaneously very lightweight, meaning it’s a hard hitter but a light carrier. Whilst a camera, it has the capability to give off a bright flash that can temporarily daze opponents so he is able to take their Dust for his semblance.

Trivia: 

Cuivre has had his ears and hair pulled many times in his younger teen years when he started dying both gold. Although extremely disheartening at first, a few compliments from renewed White Fang members and cute peers cleared his mind almost immediately.

He is less than approving of the True Bloods, but the current Faunus Civil Rights Group (FCR) led by Ilia Amitola and Blake Belladonna have his full support. He is yet to attend protests since he’s not exactly the type to go to such large group gatherings, but that’s not dampened his voice.

His Australian accent and mannerisms are right from Velvet. However, Coco was the one to train him primarily and help engineer his weapon since it’s so similar to Gianduja. She also trained him alongside Atsuibane in hand-to-hand combat so he didn’t have to rely on his Sembalnce to give him a combat style. Through his impressive weapon handling and hard-hitter persona on the battlefield, Cuivre is extremely popular once he hits Beacon and really gets to shine.

Kusagi and Byakuren may as well be cousins to him. Every summer, the Adels head down to Kuroyuri to visit the Rens, and Cuivre always enjoys the time with his Uncle Fox and the Ren siblings.

He starts crushing on boys easily, much like his sister. At some point he has a crush on Amba Belladonna.

While at Beacon, he becomes very good friends with his teammate, Opal Grey. The two are extremely opposite in terms of social energy, but they seem to get along well enough that they spend every waking hour together despite not being partners.

His favourite meal is honey-miso summer salad, specifically with strawberries, lemon, and baby radishes.

Atsuibane Adel (Based on milk chocolate easter bunnies)

Name Inspiration: ‘Astui’ means hot in Japanese, ‘bane’ means spring or coil in Japanese

Nickname(s): ‘Tsu’ and ‘Atsui’ by everyone, ‘Tiny Bun’ by Velvet and Coco, ‘Little One’ by Kaenneko

Iolite-isms: Big Ears, Shortie, Smaller Stack, Tinker Toy, Standard Package

Languages: Valean, Vacuan, Mantlan

Gender: Female

Species: Rabbit Faunus

Aura Colour: Amber

Schools and Team: Pharos Academy (comabt school), Beacon Academy (Academy)/Future Leader of Team AMSP (Atmosphere)

Bestie Better Than The Restie: Cuivre Adel

Homeplace: Vale

Orientation: Homosexual Homoromantic

Semblance: Wicker, a semblance that gives Atsuibane the ability to copy weapons by “tagging” them. Her semblance can be used for as little as mimicking a blade or as large as copying something to the scale of Crescent Rose. She has an extremely versatile fighting style that has allowed her to keep control over weapons she has encountered in the past and hopes to copy in the future, but this means that she cannot use the weapon the same way as the target would. Due to this semblance only being able to copy one weapon at a time, if she wishes to fall back on a previously used weapon she must “retag” it and become readjusted to using it with her fighting style.

Weapon: Frappe Latte, a small drone with tiny paper rabbit ears stapled onto the ‘head’. It serves as a distraction for her opponents so she can easily tag their weapons while they focus on the drone. It serves literally no other purpose.

Trivia: 

Atsui ties her ears back along with her hair, since they’re a bit larger than usual for her age and they flop in front of her work more than she’d like. 

She’s very attached to what she makes and tinkers with to follow her instructions, so much so that people often mistake their programming and loyalty to her to be a highly advanced A.I., which it is not. Her Scroll can control them all but otherwise she has a manual controller from an old games system for each machine, because behind all the oil and grease, she’s still a kid who loves her games.

She’s a close friend of Amba. She initially met him when they were little kids. Accidentally ramming a modified toy plane into the back of his head and almost stepping on his tail ironically led to Atsui becoming a source for a lot of the Belladonna family’s shipped-in Dust and weapon mods. 

If Atsui had been a boy, her name would’ve been Seiko, meaning ‘steel manufacture’ in North Mistrali according to her Uncle Lie.

She’ll eat anything watermelon flavoured, but for a meal, nothing hits the spot like watermelon poke bowl with avocado, ginger, and iced tea for the side.

She used to have a big ol’ crush on Kaenneko, but that faded out by the time Atsui was 10. That doesn’t stop her from crushing on a lot of other girls in her early to mid teens, including a blue-haired monkey Faunus.

Painting and sketching were hobbies she learned to enjoy from Velvet, who has always encouraged her engineering. If she finds something she likes, Atsui will happily drop everything to draw it.

If Atsui is upset, everyone knows. Mostly from the impact crater in the nearest wall.
