"Don't I have a duty to keep Mother's dream alive?"
IC Information
Full Name: Clarissa Arwin
Gender: Female
Age (Birthdate): 18 (482)
Hometown: ???
Hair Colour: Blonde
Class: Dandelion Shot
Role: Drifter
Bounty: 0 Gella
OOC Information
Theme: Wild Arms XF
Major Group: ARMS
Minor Groups: None
Player: User:Hats

A kind young Drifter with a good heart and a cool ARM. Growing up on the open road with her ruin raider of a mother, Clarissa is a young explorer with a deep curiosity about the world, but she doesn't have the same sort of avarice for money and power many Drifters and Geohounds fall prey to. Instead, she dreams of a Filgaia which is green and verdant again, and she hopes to do what she can to make that a reality. Armed with the mysterious ARM known as Strahl Gewehr, which only she can wield for some reason, Clarissa is dedicated not only to helping wherever she feels she can, but to pursuing her nemesis, the notorious Drifter Rupert Dandridge, and recovering Iskender Bey, the weapon he stole from her mother. Clarissa is tough at heart, but compassionate and honest - indeed, there's not much in the world she hates other than lies. But she herself may be a walking lie: Her resemblance to Alexia, the late Princess Royal of Elesius, is so perfect that people from those lands can't help but think she's royalty.

Background

Clarissa's hometown is a bit hazy, but she's the child of a well-known ruin diver by the name of Melissa Arwin.

For the past couple of years, Clarissa has been pursuing the infamous Drifter known as Rupert Dandridge, who stole a weapon called Iskender Bey - an advanced blade-ARM favoured by Clarissa's mother. Clarissa has operated mainly in the vicinity of Aquvy, both pursuing Rupert and seeking certain ancient secrets she believes will save Filgaia, though her pursuit took her into the path of the nascent organization known as ARMS.

Powers and Abilities

  • Strahl Gewehr: Clarissa carries an unusual ARM known as Strahl Gewehr. Rather than a standard bullet-shooting firearm, Strahl Gewehr fires extremely long-range energy blasts which appear more like magic than technology. Clarissa has had the ARM for most of her life, though she couldn't tell you where she got it - only that it's been with her for a long time and has been her lucky charm since she was a little girl.
  • Encouragement: The purity of Clarissa's belief in her companions shines through any time she cheers them on. Her conviction is such that even an encouraging word from her can tangibly bolster weak spirits or aid flagging hearts. Her cheers, in other words, actually buff.
  • Squall Staff: A staff Clarissa found in a chest on the Thunder Plains. It's a simple staff with a minor water enchantment. It's Clarissa's weapon of choice at close range, even if she mostly uses it for improvised bopping.
