Kanne and Lawine

Kanne Status: An adventurer mage. She has the third grade in the Continental Magic Association. Lawine's classmate. Age: early 15. Personality: Bright, friendly, plucky, and easy-going but timid under pressure. She claims to improve with praise and encouragement. Despite her fears, she works diligently when unobserved and shows consideration for others. She is a hard worker with low self esteem and no natural talent. While she can control herself in stressful situations, she's prone to reacting on surprise with freezing. She has modest combat experience, with most of it being hunting or training sparring, with barely any life or death situations. Somewhat of a tsundere towards Lawine. Background: She is the only child of her parents. She's rather spoiled. Appearance: Kanne is a young, petite girl of a short stature. She has orange eyes and short orange (red) hair, which is styled into uneven bangs and two pigtails with strands that reach the bottom of her face. When she lets down her hair, it gets slightly wavy and reaches the edge of her face.

Usual outfit: Cropped white top with puffy sleeves that reach her elbows and bright green shorts with a white belt. The top is decorated with bright green edges and has shoulder cutouts and triangle-shaped cutouts near her chest and on her back. She wears white over-the-knee boots. When casting spells as a mage, Kanne uses a long, straight staff with a jeweled center and three prongs that are reminiscent of crystals.

Abilities: As any combat mage, she knows basic offensive spell Zoltraak, which takes form of a beam of white light, and Barrier Magic, which takes form of a cluster of translucent, blueish hexagons. Her skill with them is barely a baseline proficiency, she has little experience with using them in actual combat. She knows a spell that allows to fly, but it is extremely demanding for her mana.

Her signature spell is Reamstroha, a magic that controls water. She can manipulate an enormous masses of water with weight and strength hard enough to overwhelm the magical barriers even of powerful mages. Unfortunately, Kanne's inexperience limits this powerful magic. A mage has to vividly and in great detail visualise the effect they want to achieve with the spell. Kanne is unable to visualise controlling water in any form but the most obvious form of liquid. She is unable even to manipulate the water inside a damp cloth. Moreover, she has no ability to create water, so she needs a natural source like a rain or a lake to pull water from. If she were to perfect this magic, she would be able to condense water from air or even attack internal organs by controlling the blood flow, but she is way too cautious of accidentally murdering somebody to even consider learning such techniques. Overall, she's a one-trick pony.

Lawine Status: An adventurer mage. She has the third grade in the Continental Magic Association. Kanne's classmate. Age: Late 14. Personality: Lawine is usually calm and collected. Her normal disposition to strangers is prim, proper and polite. She is somewhat stern, reserved, no-nonsense or occasionally blunt. However, her temper can have a very short fuse, especially with Kanne. She is bold, confident, and focused, but she also has a tender and caring side. Most definitely a tsundere towards Kanne. Appearance: Lawine is a young, female mage with gray hair and blue eyes. She has blunt bangs and waist-length hair, with the end of her hair tied off with a ribbon. The strands of her hair at the sides of her face are braided and pinned together at the back of her head. She puts an act of a mature young lady, and occasionally breaks it when getting in quarrels with Kanne. Usual adventuring outfit: Lawine wears a blue dress that goes to mid thigh and is lined with ruffles at the hem. The front of her dress is cut into a deep, laced v-neck layered over a white blouse. On top of her dress, Lawine wears a matching blue capelet similarly lined with ruffles at the hem. On her feet, she wears thigh-high white laced boots with heels.

Recreational outfit: An outfit gifted by her older brothers, consisting of a white one-piece dress with a belt, a light-blue cardigan, white socks, blue flats, and a white sun hat decorated with a blue ribbon. Additionally, she carries a white and blue handbag. She wears it when shopping or having a "date" with Kanne and not while actively adventuring. Background: She comes from a rich noble family. She has three older brothers who dote on her and spoil her with expensive gifts.

Abilities: Like Kanne, Lawine has baseline training allowing her to use Zoltraak, Barrier Magic and Flight spell. Her signature spell is Nephtear, a magic that controls ice. She can can both create icicles from her own mana and freeze existing water.

Relationship: Kanne and Lawine are childhood friends. They constantly bicker and get into juvenile fights over any minor inconvenience or disagreement, not unlike a married couple. The fights are often physical, including pinching, grabbing, or wrestling with each over, often ending with Lawine straddling Kanne from behind and pulling on her pigtails. The fights usually, but not always, start with Kanne teasing or provoking Lawine, or Lawine scolding or blaming Kanne for something. Despite they superficial hostility, they two are actually very close. Their constant fights are bit unlike those of a married couple. They know each other extremely well and can put unconditional trust in each other in life or death situations, which makes them a surprisingly well coordinated team when it comes to fights. They know and practice combination attacks, usually involving Kanne engulfing the target in water and Lawine freezing it. They spend most of their time hanging out together, including renting the same rooms in the inns, "to save money" of course. They both actually quite enjoy that violate routine, but they also share the moments of genuine vulnerability with each other. They both have an unrequited and barely released romantic crush on each other, which also adds a slight sexual undertone to their physical fights.
