GENERAL INFORMATION
NAME: Wrylia
ALIASES: Wildwoman, Crazy Dragon Lady
AGE: 20
GENDER: Female, She/Them
SPECIES: Saiyan-Dragon Zoanthrope Hybrid (Saiyan)
- Saiyan Pride:
When you have sustained 100% or more damage, you gain a +10% boost to all techniques, but you may not boost techniques with momentum. Healing to the point where you have less than 100% damage sustained deactivates this bonus.
- Burning Ki:
Once per thread, you may spend momentum in increments of 2 to regain KP at a cost of 2 MP to 1 KP.
- Noble Blood:
Increases the total damage you can sustain by 20%, and increases your Critical Damage Threshold by 30%.
GENERAL TRAITS:
- Bare-Knuckle Brawler:
You don't need help from modern distractions! If you enter a thread with no combat items or consumables, you may boost a defensive technique by +30% once per thread! This bonus is lost if you receive or use an item mid-thread and cannot apply to Sparking techniques.
- Impossible Recovery:
If you are defeated by taking Critical Damage in an Action Thread, you can choose to be dealt a Wound and continue the fight with whatever HP you have remaining. If defeated again, you will be dealt an additional Wound. In a non-AT thread, this allows you to resist Critical Damage once, and you do not sustain a wound.

CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
APPEARANCE:
For as strong as Wrylia's saiyan blood is, she doesn't exactly have the look of a Saiyan. Certainly, she is humanlike and built strong at her base - but she lacks a lot of the distinctive or defining features that makes a Saiyan a Saiyan at first glance. In its place however, she has a number of bestial features that make her zoanthrope heritage - that of a dragon with tiger-like stripes - much more visible.
To begin, Wrylia is built like an absolute tank. Standing at 7'9'', she towers tall with a wide-set, powerful, and muscular build shaped from years of training and combat. Her hair - kept messily cut a few inches short - is a light dusty blonde with somewhat darker stripes. Her sharp eyes are a vivid slightly-pink red, with humanlike pupils that can become reptilian thin slits in conditions such as bright light. Her skin is tanned olive, patterned both with scars as well as somewhat paler tiger-like stripes all across. Though omnivorous, her teeth are sharp like a predator's, and her fangs peek out from behind her lips - the lower set more prominent than the upper, giving the impression of a set of tusks.
For her more obvious draconic features, Wrylia has three pairs of horns along either side of the back of her head. The top pair are almost like an ox's, going backwards with a slight wave, before suddenly curling upwards. Then there are two smaller pairs of horns underneath them - evenly spaced down towards the back of her jaw, straight and short. She also bears a long and dexterous draconic tail, and large powerful wings - her scales being gold with yellow stripes, and the wing membrane a vivid crimson. These scales also cover her clawed hands and feet - reaching up to her elbows and knees - as well as along her spine and jaw. Her claws are often kept groomed short, to avoid catching on things - though remain sharp.
As far as outfits go, she is often seen in her usual mercenary garb - basic armor, painted golden to match her scales - although the armor is worn out, and the paint chipping away. Outside of her armor however, Wrylia favors reds, golds, and blacks to both match and contrast with her scales - something that she does take pride in. She doesn't dress frivolously otherwise, however - believing there are better things to spend one's money on than fashion or accessories.
BACKGROUND:
Wrylia was born to a Saiyan father and a Zoanthrope mother. Although if you asked Wrylia, she wouldn't be able to tell you much about her mother. Even today, she never really knew who her mother was, or where she had gone - not that she really cares. The only immediate relative in her life would be her father, though - and as far as family went, Wrylia's youth was spent amongst a band of independent Saiyans who lived the mercenary life. Wandering from planet to planet, from star to star... If you had the money, they were willing to do just about any job - mundane or questionable, safe or dangerous - without question. They prided themselves upon their strength, however - much like any Saiyan - and thus specialized in combat, intimidation, and bodyguard missions. Certainly not the sort of environment to raise a growing child in.
Wrylia's father made do, however - and often used the less dangerous missions as opportunities to train and test the draconic saiyan as she grew. And much to his satisfaction, she took to it like a fish took to water - proving to be an absolute hellion in combat, once set loose. Wrylia was unafraid to charge in face-first, to grapple and punch and bite and claw as she pleased - and as her strength rapidly grew, she'd even go so far as to use her very opponents as bludgeoning weapons against one another. She was a wild force, and she relished the excitement and adrenaline of combat - her saiyan blood on full display.
It was a shame, then, that some of her peers within the mercenary band did not see her as a fellow Saiyan. The only real features that tied her to them was the fact that she had a more humanlike appearance than her Zoanthrope mother supposedly did - but she did not have the dark hair and eyes, nor did she have a monkey-like tail. She could've just as much been mistaken for a hybrid of another race entirely, and no one would be any the wiser unless they tested her DNA, or saw her in her Oozaru form.
As a result, there were other Saiyans who thought of her as lesser - as an outsider. And they often made her the target of fights, in an attempt to prove themselves superior. Might makes right is often the creed of Saiyans, after all - and these mercenaries were no different. The strong made the rules, and the weak either followed - fought back - or left. This became increasingly apparent to Wrylia as she became a proper adult - and in response, her solution was to often be too aggressive or violent to be worth the trouble. She didn't care whose nose was broken by the end of the resulting fights - she was content to answer any slight with violence, and to goad others as a form of intimidation.
The weaker Saiyans knew what was coming for them, if they made a snide remark within earshot of her. And even the stronger Saiyans couldn't deny that she had spirit and drive like none other - even if she was a wild and uncontrollable beast. Wrylia, meanwhile, simply took satisfaction in being feared, if she couldn't be respected.
But eventually, things would change - and they changed violently. A job gone horribly wrong would result in a number of the mercenary band - including Wrylia's father - perishing in combat after wronging someone of greater power and influence. In the aftermath, the handful of remaining survivors would decide to depart - disbanding the mercenary band, and scattering to the solar winds to find new jobs for themselves. Left without proper direction, Wrylia would end up becoming a wanderer herself - acting as a lone mercenary to get by, going from place to place. Even after this upheaval in her life, however - one thing was for certain.
The desire for combat was still strong in her heart, and she was always looking forward to her next fight. To her next opportunity to become stronger, and something more. Something worthy of proper respect.

Light Melee || ThunderstrikeADDITIONAL NOTES: Wrylia's starting transformation is Wrathful.
Charging her fists with crackling electricity, Wrylia charges forward and attempts to swing punches at the enemy!
Power: 20%
KP Cost: 1 KP
Variants: N/A
Medium Attack || With Another
Wrylia comes in close to grapple the enemy - attempting to grab them, typically by a limb. If successful, she will proceed to violently swing and throw them around - smashing them into nearby surfaces, and stunning them in the process!
Power: 50%
KP Cost: 4 KP
Variants: Exhausting
Medium Defense || Wild Roar
Taking in a deep breath, Wrylia lets out a roar like thunder in the face of danger. The sheer sonic force behind it can break apart energy projectiles, push back approaching combatants or physical projectiles, and even be an attack in its own right under certain conditions.
Power: 50%
KP Cost: 4 KP
Variants: Reflective
Heavy Sparking Attack || Dragon's Judgement
Wrylia discharges every last bit of stored electricity into the air around her, all the while extending her fist out with a thumb to the side - much like an emperor deciding a gladiator's fate. Upon turning her thumb downwards, the discharged electricity coalesces into the blinding form of a massive dragon up above - which crashes down upon the enemy with a mighty and deafening roar, as Wrylia attempts to eviscerate them in a single blow.
Power: 110%
KP Cost: 6 KP
Variants: Fatigue, Overflowing
Utility Technique || Flight
Wrylia is able to fly with a mix of ki and her powerful wings.
Utility Technique || Inner Beast
Each of Wrylia's transformations have an Oozaru variant - this change being triggered either by normal conditions (such as the full moon,) or if Wrylia flies into an intense enough rage. Reflecting her Zoanthrope heritage, these Oozaru forms are just as much draconic as they are apelike - bearing similar draconic features to her normal form such as scales, claws, and wings. However, her scales lose their vivid coloration - instead becoming a burnt golden-brown.
