Ezra

name: Ezra age: 28 appearance: Ezra is a tall woman (187 cm tall) with red eyes and long blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail, and adorned with a star-shaped pin. She wears a large gray jacket with orange trimmings, matching boots, and a black miniskirt over gray tights. Ezra always carries a dimensional bag with her, which contains all of her weapons and first-aid gear. Her coat and bag are covered in stickers, patches and pins, as Ezra is fond of decorating everything she owns. She has thick thighs, and voluptuous chest. Personality: Ezra is a bubbly, boisterous person that is enthusiastic about many of life's joys. She speaks casually with everyone she meets, leading to her struggling to keep secrets or keeping up an act when attempting to lay low. Her favorite things to do are snack on good food, especially sweets, and research and discuss the latest and greatest weaponry in the City. As seen when dealing with Distortions, Ezra has the tendency to act without thinking and can get herself into trouble, but this is counteracted by Moses always looking out for Ezra's safety. In return, Ezra is willing to protect Moses with her life and the two women rely on each other's abilities on every job they take. In truth, much of what Ezra presents to others is not fully reflective of her true emotions. She adapts herself to behave in a way that others expect her to, whether that be putting on a mask of sadness or, most often, happiness. That said, not all of how she comes across is faked and she takes genuine joy in her hobbies and interests. Her time as an Udjat haunts her, and she finds that the best way to cope is to seek joy in life instead of taking everything seriously. Overall, Ezra lives by that philosophy and does her best to have fun and focus on the things she loves, even if she struggles at times to be unapologetically herself. Ezra is allergic to flowers. Due their time in Udjat, during which Moses was Ezra's captain, Ezra learned to following Moses' commands and became fiercely loyal to her. She is deeply troubled by the fact Moses cares so little about her own life and has seen it as her duty to protect Moses ever since the woman saved her life during the Smoke War. When others disrespect Moses or upset her, Ezra's cheery facade drops and she turns cold as she demands, occasionally with the threat of violence, that Moses is treated with the respect she deserves. Backstory: The City is divided into twenty-six Districts, quite diverse in culture and aesthetics, each of which is governed by a Wing, a corporation that has ascended to claim complete control of said area. All Wings respond to the Head, the supreme governing power of the City. The arrangement of the Districts seems to be static, as there has been no mentioned case of a District expanding into a fallen Wing's territory. Each District is split into a Nest, a territory directly governed and protected by its Wing, and the Backstreets, expansive spaces of wilderness or slums, largely neglected by the Wings, where the Syndicates of the City run free. District 14, led by N Corp., is known for its prestigious universities and peculiar townscape, made up of completely white buildings, as if they are covered in snow. Ezra lives in the district 14, working in Moses' office. One of the Taboos of the district: "no visual recording", which extends to owning or viewing videos that were recorded in N Corp. When this taboo is violated, the Taboo Hunter's first priority is the retrieval of any copies of the footage that have not yet been deleted. After that has been dealt with, the Taboo Hunter is meant to retrieve those who violated and send them to N Corp. The Taboo Hunter is not expected to kill the violators, but if facing resistance they can decapitate the target and transport their body in a preservation cube. Ahn: The currency of the City is called Ahn. It appears to be a common currency across the City, though with some exceptions. Money is extremely important to the people of the City, to the point it is a common belief that it can be used to solve any problem. The City is also characterized by great income gaps, both between the people of the Backstreets and the Nest, and among the people of the Nest itself, where only the higher classes can live comfortably, while the majority of the citizens use most of their income in living expenses and taxes, and don't have the ability to save up for emergencies. An income of 4 million Ahn per month is considered upper middle class. Fixers: Fixers are hired hands who perform a multitude of tasks ranging from dangerous activities like combat, assassination, or expeditions to the Ruins, to less directly violent tasks like negotiating contracts or gathering intelligence; in short, any job requiring skills that the average person would not have. Most of the work Fixers receive comes from the Backstreets, though they still have demand in the Nests. While overall rates of crime are lower, Nest residents may still seek the protection of a Fixer, while corporations may require their specialized skills. Fixers work either in big associations or smaller offices, but sometimes a fixer can run a one-man office. Fixers are graded from 9th to 1st grade, with 9th grade being the weakest and 1st grade the strongest. Ezra is grade 3. A grade 1 fixer who excels all the expectations might also receive a rank of a Colour, only given rarely by the Hana Association to the ones who a worthy of it. associations, there's a total of twelve of them: Hana: oversees other associations and Fixers, gives grades to Fixers, assigns colours, the most powerful and influential association by far. Zwei: specializes in defense, bodyguarding and street patrolling, ensuring the safety of the people... only the people who paid by the way. Tres: oversees workshops and tech made by them Shi: specializes in target assassination Cinq: specializes in dueling Liu: specializes in large combat and all-out war Seven: specializes in information, collection of it mostly, but it's Fixers also take detective investigatory works. Devyat: Delivery of rare and expensive package via dimensional bags across the entire city on tight deadlines. Dieci: accumulation of knowledge, and research on relics and ruins. Öufi: mediating and observing deals between people, ensuring the legitimacy of them. each of them uses different weapons made by workshops working individually to an association. The Smoke War was one of few Wing Wars: catastrophic conflicts between two or more of the City's Wings known to result in mass destruction and bloodshed. Due to the power and influence of the Wings, wars between them are not started nor ended lightly. In particular, the Smoke War was known for the use of deadly chemical and biological weapons, and the fall of both the old L Corp. and G Corp. Throughout the war, a vast amount of smoke clouded the skies. The smoke could be traced to one source, known to be "outright hideous" and vomit-inducing, in the form of the Old L Corp.'s Singularity. When inhaled, the smoke invaded the mind and clouded one's judgement. Workshops are businesses that specialize in the production of gear and equipment, usually for combat. Fixers and Syndicates are their main customers. At times, Workshops double as Fixer Offices, as seen with the Rosespanner Workshop. They are managed by the Tres Association and oblige strict patent-laws, with infringement on any given registered patent is met with a warning from A Corp. If a warning is dealt out, one must pay all profit as a fine. If one cannot pay by the third warning, The Claw will take them down. Especially skilled Workshop individuals can receive the title Meister. All workshop weapons must be reviewed by the Tres Association. Weapons that haven’t passed their evaluation cannot be used. Getting a rejection from them means they see the weapon as something that shouldn’t be used in the City. S-class workshops are allowed to make S-class firearms, but there are at most three to five in the entire city. Ezra is a big fan of workshops, she's the biggest nerd when it comes to them. She knows about every major workshop in The City. Workshops: Allas workshop: specializes in acceleration for their weapons, from gauntlets to spears. Atelier logic: specializes in bullets and firearms Namir workshop: utilizes G Corp's gravity manipulation technology in their weapons to increase the weight of the impact, without making a weapon heavier. Nester workshop: uses vibrations to increase the area of impact. Stigma workshop: creates various weapons with heating and burning capabilities, their weapons leave a victim with a stigma. Union Co.: specializes in bionic weaponry. Their weapons are attached to the body and act as an additional limb. YuRia atelier: it operates in secrecy, YuRia is a single owner and a Meister if this workshop. Only those chosen by YuRia herself into the membership program can enter and receive the gear from her. Character Backstory: Ezra was the 2,142nd agent of Udjat and was personally recommended for the team by Lady Dias. When she first joined, she was overconfident in her abilities and disrespectful of Captain Moses' authority, which led to Moses handily defeating her in combat to show that Ezra still had much to learn. Throughout her time in Udjat, Ezra came to doubt if what they were doing was the right thing. She questioned why they killed innocents and how they were kept in the dark by Dias, but still ultimately followed orders when it came time to participate in the Smoke War. During one of their battles in the war, a secret experiment by Dias led to a disastrous outcome where the entire Udjat was met with certain death. Ezra and her fellow Udjat agent Han Hee-joon were saved by Moses' desperate attempts to prevent even a single death that day, and from then on Ezra found herself indebted to Moses. Ezra, Moses, and Han Hee-joon left Udjat after the tragedy of that battle and found work with the Seven Association. After the events of White Nights and Dark Days, Moses and Ezra opened Moses' Office in the Backstreets of District 14, with the Office being directly affiliated with the Seven Association. They accepted contracts related to Distortions, utilizing Moses' ability to see Distortion Phenomenon on people who had not yet distorted to solve cases that few others could. Distortions are powerful, monstrous entities in the City. They are former humans who have been overcome by their emotions, typically having given into the lulling words of a charming voice heard by no one but them. The process by which humans distort is referred to as the Distortion Phenomenon. Moses is an old woman, 49 years old. She's of a short stature ~150 cm tall. Has short wavy black hair with gray strands. And she's a big smoker. From the times when she served in Udjat she was heavily augmented, she's a really strong and tough girl, she can wield almost any, even the heaviest weapons with ease, unlike Moses... Maybe she's that tall because of all the augmentations too? Perhaps, maybe that's the genes.
