So tell me a little bit about yourself.

Physical Aspects: Lillian stands at about 5’5 to 5’6, weighing roughly 125 pounds give or take a couple. She’s got a bit of lean muscle from her time in the Libertas Air Force, her attempts at keeping herself in shape a success. Her black hair would go down to past her shoulders if she kept it down, keeping it in a clip most of the time to keep better concentration; though, she's worn it down more since leaving Eurydice. Her eyes are hazel, often more green than brown depending on the lighting. Since leaving Eurydice, her clothing style has drastically changed. She now wears something like this, dark blue replacing the pink and black footwear instead of the brown. If she's not wearing this, she goes straight back to a dark blue tank top with "Libertas Air Force" written on the front in all capital letters, black jeans, and sneakers.

Persona:

• Façade:
  Lillian comes off as rebellious and has done so since she was young, her mother often noting that she almost always refused to be compliant. She doesn't seem to be shy at all, overconfident most of the time and rather prideful of herself and her work. Her will is strong and she is almost never willing to back down from a fight; this only encourages her almost extreme stubbornness and rather competitive nature.
  
  She supposes she is a bit of a dreamer and free-spirit as well. This comes from her slightly romanticized view of Libertas' aristocracy and the government in general; this also includes the entity of light. She has somewhat lofty dreams and can sometimes be too trusting toward people. Even though her world was destroyed, she desperately hopes that it will come back some day, and some day soon. Her free-spirit ways come from wanting to be an individual and wanting to make a difference someway, somewhere, somehow.
  
  Her way of talking is different depending on the situation. With her family, with the exception of her father, she does not talk much at all and often chooses short replies if she does. Other than that, she’s a rather good conversationalist with almost anyone most of the time. She also hates long-winded talks and prefers quick conversations to drawn out ones. The conversations that make her feel a bit awkward are the deep ones that involve some emotional talk and whatnot; she tends to try and block out her emotions, even though that often never works. Most of the time, however, she strives to keep a calm demeanor, only getting really excited when she was flying.
  
  Lillian is also, accursedly, a perfectionist in just about everything she does. She has to have everything "just so" and will correct mistakes that she sees. Though, that's gotten her in trouble with people of course when she tries to correct her issues, but it certainly has improved her accuracy as a fighter.
  
  
• Inner Mind:
  "What if everything I've done is just for nothing?"
  
  Lillian's inner core is mostly run by fear. She fears the darkness because of what it did to her world and her people and has a very difficult time trusting anyone who may come off as slightly dark. She is also very afraid that everything she has worked so hard to achieve-- her skills, the relationships she built, her dreams and anything else of value-- would amount to nothing. She is also very afraid of loss, already experiencing it by losing her world and not wanting to go through that sort of pain again. Those are some of her main reasons for working as diligently as she does with stubborn determination.
  
  Fear is just one emotion among a few Lillian likes to keep locked up. Her rage, or at least the core of it, is another thing that she keeps locked away. When she lost her world, she was not only frightened of the darkness but furious that it chose to take away the only thing she knew. She fights those that she knows are of darkness with this rage.

Weapon(s):

• Dual Pistols: Lillian uses two Beretta 92 FS pistols. However, they do not fire bullets but instead fire small blue energy blasts.
  
  
• Dagger: A small knife with a curved blade. The handle is black with a silver cloth grip, and the blade is six inches long. The sheath is fairly simple, made of wood with black ribbon wrapped around it so it can be tied onto a belt. This was a gift from Clive.
  
  
• Peregrine
  A Keyblade that will take the place of Lillian's short-ranged weapon. This blade, shades of blue in coloration, forms a falcon at the head with its wings to form the teeth, going along with the animal of Libertas that is symbolic for victory and liberty. Unlike most Keyblades, it is held and wielded in a reverse-grip.

[Many thanks to Dan for making this Keyblade]

(Extra!) Fighting Style: Lillian prefers to keep her distance when she fights, making her guns well suited. She is rather quick on her feet and does not like firing off a lot of shots unless she feels the need to, in which case she blasts the hell out of her enemies until she no longer can. She is capable of firing about four shots per second, give or take one or two, if she so chooses. When she is forced into a short-range fight, or a strictly melee fight, she will use her Keyblade in a reverse-grip. Her attacks aren't all that strong by themselves, making her tend to combine strings of attacks together; especially in the air.

With this ability, Lillian’s shots are equal Strong in strength and cause minor Darkness-based explosions upon impact.

Only five missiles at the most will be able to be fired, purple in color. If they do not hit their intended target, they will go into the ground and cause a small explosion.

Out of each of her guns, Lillian can shoot missile-like energy that homes in on the opponent(s). Six missiles at the most will be fired, blue in color. If they do not hit their intended target, they will go to the ground and cause a small explosion. If an opponent is hit by the explosion, he or she will be blinded for two posts.

What’s your story?

"Why does it rain down on Utopia?"
(Utopia by Within Temptation)

Lillian was born into the world of aviation, her father being a renowned and respected pilot in the world. She grew up in the world known as Libertas, a beautiful utopian world. Flight was incredibly important to this world, as the world was undergoing a civil war. The war, beginning one year before Lillian was born, was a battle started by a rebellion wanting to seize power from the government, one that they believed to be corrupt. Adrian, Lillian's father, called them Radicals because of this. Those that stuck by the government were the Nationalists; the Owens were in that category.

As previously stated, Lillian was born almost right after the war was started. Her mother, Helen, was frightened of losing her husband and wanted to start a family before the war took her husband away. She managed to conceive and bore Lillian nine months later while her husband was in battle. They lived in their rather comfy abode for a couple of years without Adrian around most of the time. Unfortunately, Lillian got used to this and the sounds of missiles firing outside of her home.

The war reached a tentative end when Lillian was about five years old. The Nationalists won and were able to push back the Radicals until their numbers were nearly diminished. The world, now war torn, now had to be remedied so it could be put back into its utopian like state. Adrian was heavily involved in this process for a while, then returning home to his wife and child, the one who he had never seen before. Their relationship quickly started.

Without the war lingering over them anymore and the world back in its original state of beauty, the Owen family was allowed to relax a bit. They had a second child named Richard when Lillian was seven. This created both good things and bad for the eldest child of the Owen family: she had someone else to play with, or at least somewhat, and the attention was not always focused on her. Sadly, it did not help the relationship she had with her mother. Helen grew much closer to Richard because of his seemingly more compliant nature; Lillian had lacked that during most of her childhood without her father in her house. As she started to drift away from her mother, she started growing closer to her father.

The first thing that really bonded the two was a love for flying and freedom. Adrian was a sort of free-spirited man and instilled the same qualities in his daughter. He introduced her to the world of aviation when she almost ten and showed her what it was like. From that point on, she knew that she wanted to be a pilot and did whatever she could to learn about anything that flew. With her adept mind, she learned incredibly quickly and knew the inner workings of almost any airship by the time she was fourteen.

Alas, things could not stay cushy and optimistic forever. While Lillian did go on to become a young pilot at the age of sixteen, joining the Libertas Military shortly after, she got to fly around the world in her blue fighter plane, Falcon. She got to see her beautiful world and meet many people around it, though some were not happy to see her; those were former Radicals, all of them telling her that she lived blindly, not seeing what was truly going on. Libertas may have been a utopia once, but it wasn't anymore; according to them at least.

Two years later, Heartless started showing up in the world in large quantities, Lillian being eighteen now. A war being against the foreign enemy that threatened their very existence, one that also threatened to destroy the utopia that they grew to love. Both Radicals and Nationalists fought against the Heartless in hopes of keeping their world and not losing it to the darkness; of course the Nationalists, including Lillian, thought they were better fighters than the Radicals, but that’s neither here nor there.

Sadly, what the Heartless did not have in strength they made up for greatly in numbers. They stole many hearts from the world, including that of which belonged to Lillian’s brother Richard. This caused her to fight harder for her world and try and keep the Heartless from destroying it. That did not work out, for the darkness took Libertas, and her Falcon, away from her when she turned nineteen. The world vanished along with almost all of its citizens.

This got Lillian to where she was now. She got dropped off in Traverse Town, the only one of her world; or, so she surmised. She learned real quickly what sort of things were going on outside of the world of Libertas and that there were plenty of other worlds out there. She quickly learned to hate the Heartless and the darkness, making it her goal to fight them when she could; she used the training she received from the military to her advantage. She also designed her own Gummi-Ship after a while and named it Falcon in honor of her former ship.

She has no idea about the balance or anything of that nature. She does not know what the light is doing and how blind it is making people. She continues to fight for it with a hatred for the darkness, not truly knowing what she is getting herself into.

It all comes down to this: make your choice.

You are presented with three weapons: a sword, a staff, and a shield. The sword represents the power of the warrior; invincible courage comes with this weapon as well as horrible destruction. The staff represents the power of the mystic; inner strength comes with this weapon as well as wonder and ruin. The shield represents the power of the guardian; kindness to aid friends comes with this weapon as well as a shield that will repel all.

Which one will you choose?

Chosen Weapon: Lillian looks at the Sword, hesitantly at first, before picking it up and gripping it with a firm hold in her hand.

Guard Break
The ability to slash through any defensive abilities of Weak strength, Guard Break symbolizes the destructive power of the Sword at its peak.
