ALLURE

Member of The Community
Allure, a confident and adaptable warrior within The Stronghold, has earned her chosen name through her undeniable presence and mastery of the Action State. Standing at 5’3″ with an athletic yet slender build, Allure is the embodiment of controlled chaos, often diving headfirst into situations not out of impulsiveness, but because she relishes the challenge. For her, the unpredictability of a confrontation is where the real fun begins, and she thrives in environments that require quick thinking and adaptability. Comfortable in her own skin and with others, Allure exudes a calm confidence that allows her to let most things roll off her shoulders. However, when a situation calls for it, she is more than willing to confront issues head-on. Her eyes turn completely black when she enters the Action State, a mode that amplifies her martial arts and gymnastic prowess, and allows her to create slight illusions that confuse opponents for just a split second—often all the time she needs to gain the upper hand. Clad in her distinctive red scarf, which she wraps around her head and face, Allure is a striking figure, unarmed but never unprepared.
  • POWERS:

    Master of the Action State: Achieves a heightened state of focus and physical prowess, during which her eyes turn completely black. Martial Arts and Gymnastics Expertise: Excels in hand-to-hand combat and acrobatics, making her a formidable opponent in any physical confrontation.

BRIEF HISTORY

Allure’s journey within The Stronghold has been marked by her fearless approach to challenges and her enjoyment of the unexpected. Her chosen name reflects both her captivating presence and her ability to draw people—and challenges—towards her. She has trained extensively to master the Action State, a heightened mode that enhances her natural abilities and allows her to manipulate her opponents’ perceptions through brief illusions. While Allure is often the life of the party, bringing a sense of fun to even the most intense situations, she is also capable of taking charge when necessary, never shying away from confrontation if the situation demands it. Her adaptability and love for the thrill of the unknown make her a unique and valued member of The Community, and her story is still unfolding as she continues to push her limits and seek out new challenges.

Physical Description:
Allure stands at 5’3″ with an athletic but slender build, her toned musculature a testament to her dedication to martial arts and gymnastics. Her light brown hair flows freely to her shoulders, complementing her warm brown eyes—though they turn completely black when she enters the Action State. She often wears a lightweight red scarf wrapped around her head and face, a distinctive accessory that adds to her striking appearance. Her skin is pale, providing a sharp contrast to the vibrant red of her scarf.

Personality Traits:
Confident, adaptable, and playful, Allure is someone who embraces the surprises life throws at her. She is comfortable with herself and enjoys the company of others, often lightening the mood with her easygoing nature. However, when the situation calls for it, she can be confrontational, driven not by anger but by a sense of fun and the knowledge that she can handle whatever comes her way. Her love for the unpredictable makes her a daring and dynamic force within The Community.

Weaknesses:
While Allure’s confidence and adaptability are strengths, they can sometimes lead her to underestimate the seriousness of a situation. Her willingness to jump into the unknown, while often beneficial, might occasionally put her in over her head if she’s not careful. Additionally, her carefree nature might cause others to misjudge her, thinking she’s less focused or serious than she truly is.

PING

Apprentice of The Stronghold

Ping, affectionately known as “Ping Pong” for his playful teleportation style, is a Nameless warrior within The Stronghold—a sanctuary where ordinary humans strive to transcend their limits and earn their place among the legendary Style Assassins.

With a carefree attitude and a constant stream of witty remarks, he brings a lighthearted energy to the otherwise serious world of The Hold. Ping’s mastery of the Meditative State allows him to cast spells and teleport up to five feet at will, a skill he uses with playful abandon, often “ping-ponging” around his environment. His pale white skin and all-white eyes when in the Meditative State contrast with his vibrant personality. Armed with a collapsible bo staff and clad in a techwear-style ninja outfit, Ping is ready to take on the challenges of his Shugyosha, all while keeping things light and fun.
