Name: Abigail Callahan, but you can call me Abby.
Age: 15
Birthdate: April 9th
Place of Birth: Charlotte, NC.
Gender: Female
Alliance: Lawful good
Meister: Laura Bonaparte
Personality: Abby seems like the quiet type to people who don't know her. She always does well in class, and is always polite. She seems very calm and collected, and doesn't act up in class. She is also very serious about her studies and is quite intelligent.
However, if you told any of her friends that Abby is "always such a good, quiet girl" they would laugh in your face. To her friends, Abby is fun, outgoing, and hyper. She comes up with crazy ideas and acts on them. She is often the one who restrains Laura from antagonizing people and getting consequently beat up. She is very proud of her 1/4 Irish heritage, and plays the violin. She never leaves the house without a book, reading volume after volume.
She has a very peaceful outlook on life, believing that problems are best solved without violence. However, she concedes the need for violence as long as people can't be dealt with any other way. She believes that there is some good in most people, but that people whose souls are Kishin eggs are obviously too far gone. Her goal is world peace. She has decided to help Laura with her goal of world domination, because Laura has promised to go about it through politics and economics rather than a hostile takeover. Abby believes that after Laura is in charge, the world will be a relatively better place.
Hobbies/Interests: Abby is a huge fan of history. Her areas of particular interest are the twenties, thirties, and fifties. She loves the Little Rascals and anything else by Hal Roach. If she is watching a movie from nowadays set in one of her time periods, she constantly points out inaccuracies in fashion and culture. Laura is usually on the recieving end of these tirades. One of Laura's favorite ways to bother Abby is to say "Oh yeah, wasn't Julie Garland in that movie?" and then dodge the incoming book.
Her favorite movies are the Indiana Jones movies. Possibly because they're set in her time periods, but also because they're awesome. She knows nearly everything about the series, including behind-scenes trivia.
Although she is technically an American, she considers herself British. She is completely addicted to tea, and is always using the British pronunciations of words (such as aluminium). She loves the Beatles, and owns nearly all their movies and albums. One of her goals is to spend a year studying abroad in England.
Her greatest love is probably reading. She reads nearly every genre. Her favorites are fantasy, historical fiction, and realistic fiction. She will read a limited amount of romance (mostly historical). Laura has been trying to get her to read sci-fi for as long as they both can remember, but Abby sticks staunchy by her refusal. However, she will read Ray Bradbury. Both she and Laura are extreme purists when it comes to movie adaptations of books, being enraged to the point of screaming when a movie fails as ridiculously as the Percy Jackson movie did (Could they at least have kept the PLOT the same?! Or maybe NOT changed all the characters' personalities and demolished all the plot twists? AAAAAUGH!!!! RAGE RAGE RAGE!!!!) They both don't hate the Harry Potter movies, though. At least those were KIND OF close. Even if they did leave out everything. -sulk-
Appearance: Abby has long, flowy, wavy strawberry-blonde hair. She wears this either loose or in a braid. She is much more feminine than Laura, wearing a loose flowy medieval-style dress that shades from a deep red around the sleeve edges and bottom hem through orange and ends up a light yellow.
Weapon Appearance: Abby takes the form of three different axes. The smallest, Allegro, is a hand-axe with a knife blade on the end of the handle. It is about a foot in length and the axe blades are four inches wide. The middle-sized axe is Andante, which is a poleaxe around five feet in length. Each blade is a foot wide and a foot and a half tall. The largest axe is Largo, the same length as Andante but with much bigger blades. Each blade is one and a half long and two feet tall.
History: Abby was born in Charlotte, North Carolina. She has a little sister named Allie, who has not as yet shown signs of being a weapon. Abby has a deep connection with her Irish heritage, since both sides of her family are Scotch-Irish. Her father, a weapon, left Shibusen after his partner died and settled down in Charlotte. He now works as a college professor, as does Abby's mother.
Abby and Laura have been inseparable since kindergarden. The story that their parents tell them is that when they came to pick them up from their first day at kindergarden, they found Abby and Laura avidly discussing bog bodies and human sacrifice. Abby and Laura bonded over their mutual love of books and dinosaurs. Abby has always been the grounding influence on Laura, keeping her out of most fights.
Abby has always done well in classes, and continues to do so in Shibusen. She always knew that she would go to Shibusen eventually, even though her father begged her not to. When Laura announced her intention to go to Shibusen and take out potential threats to her future rule, Abby knew that she would have to go with her, if only to keep her out of trouble.
Powers: Abby can turn into three different axes, and each has a different power when she and Laura use Soul Resonance.
Allegro can be thrown as a spinning wheel of fire.
Andante can be spun to charge a fireball, which is then shot by pointing the axe head at the target.
Largo can be swung to throw crescents of flames forwards.
When she and Laura use their 'final form' (I don't know what else to call it) the blades of the axe turn into dragon wings. Laura then swings the axe around her head and points it at the target, firing a dragon made of flame at the target.
Strengths: Abby is very smart and soaks up knowledge like a sponge. She is also very diplomatic and can avoid most conflicts. Her presence has a calming influence on people. She is really the only person who can control Laura. She is also very good with people in general.
Weaknesses: She lacks any ability for self-defense, save truning into an axe and laying there (ever tried punching an axe?). Her powers also wane quite a bit when it's night and a little when it's cloudy out. At the moment, she can't partially manifest the axe. It's all or nothing. As far as personality goes, she's not aggressive at all. She refuses to hurt people, and will often end up getting beaten up rather than fight. She also has a tendency to do things that are actively self-destructive because of her desire to help others.
Anything else? Allegro, Andante, and Largo are all musical beat notations. Allegro is a very fast pace, Andante is a walking pace, and Largo is a slow, steady pace.
