Special Skills: Canace has a very good eye for colors. As mentioned before, she is the one (but not the only one), who goes out and finds new plants for some good colors. Canace can also stay out in the cold and strong winds longer than anyone else in her clan can with simple summerwear on. (Though she prefers not to. ^___~) Also, tying in a bit with the last one, Canace can predict the weather for the next day by the way the winds are blowing. Kinda like an early meteorologist. More than half of the time she is right (about 75% of the time), but the older ones either wait to see tomorrow, or she just doesn't tell them. This last one is more of an...unskill if you will. Canace cannot see at all in the dark, and she gets terrified when she can't see, since she tends to depend too much on her sight. Transformation: "Vata Primal Power, Make UP!" Canace shouts out her phrase, cracking voice and all, and her clothes melt away into a paperbag-brown, and minty celedon green shower of shimmers. Her right foot is placed in front of her left as she extends both arms to receive her fanstaff, her eyes and both fans currently closed. She twirls the poll so that both the canvas and the iron fans open, then she holds her fanstaff perpendicular, high over her head and starts to spin it, like a helicopter. A large mass of shining, iridescent, paperbag-brown ribbons suddenly fly in and cover her, head to toe, while she still spins the fanstaff. The screen then blackens for a moment, with the sound of something getting sucked into a vacuum, then fades back in by swirling gusts of air. Vata, still twirling the fanstaff, and fully transformed, slows her spinning and jerks the fan down, holding it firmly in front of her at an angle, her left hand towards the top, and her right by the end at the bottom, both feet positioned the same, and her eyes open. (lucky for her, this is a really quick transformation, and the darkness lasts for an instant.) Colors: Primary is a paperbag-brown color, while the secondary is a light, minty celedon green. Fuku/costume: Vata has basically the normal primal look to her fuku. Her green bow is made of a medium sized cord, and hangs loosely from her triangular opal broach. Her butt bow is also the same way, only no broach, and is twice the size in length to her breast bow. Her shoulder pad/sleeves are brown, clear and cut straight, with some green, uneven ones underneath, also clear. Her skirt works the same way. The top is brown, opaque, and cut all even, while the green underneath is very ridgy, uneven, and clear, like the shoulder pads. The abdomen of her fuku has been cut out and replaced by some netting that connects the breast to the skirt. Her choker is just a plain, brown ribbon, and her collar is just a plain green collar. Vata's gloves are just a green ribbon wrapped around her arm, from just below the shoulder, to her fingertips, missing large chunks in covering her arm here and there. Her boots are very much the same as the gloves. The green ribbon start mid-shin, and wrap their way down to her toes. Two pieces of wood are at her heel and toes, and the rest is just her foot and ribbon. She has two ribbons, one of each of her colors, woven in each of her two buns, making a total of four hair ribbons. Her tiara is a iron colored piece of thick wire, with a little crossed design attached in the middle. The wire goes up, down up, and down up down, with little balls at the ends of it. (Do not be afraid by mai jumbly description. There is a picture in the media section!) Symbol: It means, tornado. It looks like two C's with one end touching the inside middle of eachother. >__> I know, bad description...here's a picture for all yeh confzzled ones. Henshin item: A triangular opal with her symbol scratched deeply into it. She wears it on her necklace, up towards the back by the tie, so that it doesn't count towards one of her beads/stones. Powers/Attacks: Whispering Zephyr: Vata shouts out this phrase, all squeaky like, and opens her canvas fan and then fans it up and down three times. A power then rises out of the air, coming in the form of a small dustbowl, and circles Vata and anyone else in a five foot radius. This attack is mainly to buy more time, and lasts only a few minutes. And if you try to walk outside or inside the circle, you might get swirled up in the air, and get lots of grit and shtoof all over you... >___< Tempest Blare: Vata, once again, shouts the name of her attack. She twirls her fanstaff so that her iron fan blades are the only ones open. She then puts the staff over her head, like in her transformation, and starts to spin it. Vata then stops, flips the fanstaff, and hurls it into the ground, fanblades first. Different sizes of energy appear between her and her opponent, each one holding a different intensity of wind, and then fires at random. This attack is never 100% accurate at hitting the target. Vata also doesn't do this attack more than 5 times during a battle, for she would have used up most of her energy by then. (*Note: Both of these attacks can be done without her fan. The attacks work the same way, only she uses her hands instead of the fan to twirl, wave, and hurl.) Weapons: A fanstaff. It is about 6' tall, and made mostly out of iron. (Which makes it veddy heavy... >___<;;) The bottom of the fan sort of...fans out and is connected to an ovular ball, and a more stretched out ovular ball, perpendicular to the first one, and the first one to the staff itself. Two fans, perpendicular to eachother are present on this fan as well. A large, circular canvas fan, with two long curled pieces of iron on the bottom, weighing the fan open. And a triangular iron fan, half the width of the canvas fan sits in the middle, also with it's own curled pieces of iron. The iron fan is also a little sharp. The fan kind of looks like the ones the male eunuchs used to fan the queen. ^___^;;;; It was used during the long winter in her clan to help keep fires going, and to cut, or move lit or unlit firefuel when needed. Plus, when she switches the fans on the staff while working, she does not twirl it, as when transformed. Usually there is too many people standing around, so she will stand the staff upright, and fold one side back together, and pull the other one out, rather carefully.
