Lavendula Invidia

1

One of my RWBY OCs.  ………………………………… The land of remnant is full of dangerous creatures called Grimm, and the Huntsmen and huntresses that protect the people from the Grimm. Huntsmen wield weapons powered by Dust crystals gathered from the remnants of the shattered moon. Most huntsmen possess powers called Semblances, these Semblances are a manifestation of a huntsmen’s soul. Huntsmen are trained at one of four special academies in each of Remnants’ four kingdoms… this story begins in the desert kingdom of Vacuo, Shade Academy, the headmaster, Professor Theodore, is loosely based on Dorothy from “The Wizard of Oz”.  ………………………………… Lavendula Invidia is a snake Faunus, she makes up the “L” of Team FLAR. Her aura color is green, but her overall color theme is lavender as her name suggests. Lavendula’s semblance is called Envathy, it allows her to temporarily barrow semblances of people she’s emotionally close to, or to hypnotize or charm others with her serpent like movements, much like a reversal of the snake charmer. Lavendula’s weapon is Viathan, a serpent spear that she can bend into a bow to shoot fire dust charged arrows, however when in spear configuration, it is loaded with either fire dust or gravity dust. Lavendula has two inspirations, Leviathan, and Kaa from Jungle Book. ………………………………… As a snake Faunus, Lavendula and her parents were well suited to the desert climate. One day, a pack of Grimm attacked Lavendula’s small village, killing her mother, and injuring her father who was a huntsman. Just as a large evolved Sabyr Grimm was advancing on a young Lavendula, her father used the last of his strength and hit it with an arrow, scaring it off. Since losing her parents during the Grimm attack, Lavendula wandered the vast desert of Vacuo until arriving at Shade Academy and meeting her future teammates, Ròs and Azure.
