Ciaran is a minuscule water deer faunus, standing at just a hair under 4'8" (142 cm for you metric-users), weighing a meager 92 pounds, and possessing a lithe, subtly toned build with little fat on her, wrapped up in pale, almost sickly-looking skin and topped with a head full of cream-colored hair, the complement of both drawing attention to her vibrant ultramarine eyes, which are flecked with gold and possessing a dark, thin limbal ring around the irises. As a water deer faunus, Ciaran has a pair of long, teddy-bear like ears with fur the same color as her hair, with slightly darker colored tips and nearly white tufts of fur on the insides of each ear, along with normal human ears. Usually, she has her hair styled so half is drawn back into a braid, which wraps in a loop on the left side of her face and is tied back on itself, while the other is cut with flat bangs which hang slightly over her eye, and her hair on the right side hangs down freely to her shoulder blades. In addition, she has a pair of tusks, though some mistake them for large fangs, jutting out from the top of her mouth as per her faunus heritage, which measure 2 inches long each and are held surprisingly loosely in their sockets, allowing Ciaran to control their movement with her facial muscles and draw them forwards or backwards based on the situation.
For her small size, she has a slightly larger than proportional head toting an attractive, heart-shaped face with a pointed chin and slender jawline, with a small button nose and thin lips, which naturally sit in a smiling expression. Otherwise, Ciaran's body is proportional to her height with a relatively hourglass figure and faintly toned musculature from exercise and training. However, where her right arm would be past the shoulder is a stump 3/4 up her upper arm from her elbow, lost several years ago. Her left arm is also decorated with a sleeve tattoo made up of a picture of a demon and an angel circling a moon on her upper arm, and the rest of the arm's tattoo is of a made up script, which when decoded is actually Ciaran's favorite poem.
Ciaran has a wide range of fashion choices, but she normally wears one of two main outfits.
Ciaran's main outfit, dubbed by her to be called "White Queen of Cards," begins with Ciaran herself. Firstly, her hair is dyed jet black, letting it hang down freely and adding in a streak of cherry red on the left side of her bangs, keeping another streak next to them towards the right white, though still in the same general style. In addition, she wears a pair of colored contacts in the same red, and her finger and toenails are painted white with stylized card suits on her fingers, and chess pieces on her toes in alternating black and red, and dye her ears black as well, leaving the tips white. Makeup wise, she wears a slight amount of facial makeup to make her face a little more pale, and apply thick white eyeliner, with three red tears under her eyes, and white lipstick, with a black heart in the middle of her lips.
After putting on well, basic undies and a bra, she'd first put on a full-length black seamless fence net bodystocking (think fishnets but with larger holes, approx 1.25 cm across), of course designed for someone lacking a right arm past the shoulder. On top of that would go a pair of tight leather short-shorts which go approx. 1/4 the way down her thighs, dyed white with black thread tying the pieces together, with two pockets on the backs and front, capable of holding small things only. A thick black leather belt with white stripes near the middle is wrapped around Ciaran's waist, with several pouches made of black leather and closed with a simple snapping clasp on the left side for easy access to dust canisters. Each end of the belt passes through a large silver buckle, emblazoned with her personal three deer prancing around a warrior emblem, and on it's back is strapped a short, bushy bunch of black fur with a white underside to resemble a doe's tail.
Ciaran also wears a loose, sleeveless black tank top with an extra supporting strap on the back between the normal straps to hold it on her shoulders, and the top is cut short to expose her midriff. She also has a long sleeved black leotard that she wears in colder areas or when she doesn't feel like showing as much skin instead of the tank top, but usually this piece is not worn.
Over the tank top or leotard she'd wear a large white dyed leather poncho with red and black quilted cloth in a checkerboard pattern on the insides, which would reach to her navel and consists of two pieces, one which wraps around her shoulders and back to the insides of her shoulders, and another that covers her front. Black and red strips of cloth, one of each color on each side of the middle piece, tie the two pieces of the poncho/cape together, and on the end of these strips are small silver bells lacking clappers. On the poncho's shoulders are a set of five silver spikes, and on the insides are ample amounts of pockets, loops, and straps to hold things, though on the outside front are two larger pouches. Dust has been infused into the poncho in detailed patterns, giving an admittedly useless as Ciaran is not a dust-caster, but impressive looking set of patterned lines of glowing red and black at regular intervals down the poncho, three on the front segment and seventeen on the rest of the poncho. The patterns are connected vertically, and consist of the four card suits on the outside lines of each segment of the poncho in red, and four chess pieces of knight, rook, queen, and bishop on the other lines, alternating in card/chess/card pattern to end with cards on the outsides of all pieces. On the back of the poncho between her shoulder blades and interrupting a line of chess pieces is also her personal emblem, stylized specially to be made out of little card suit shapes.
Normally attached to the inside of the poncho are also a pair of detachable black bell sleeves, attached with buttons and cloth loops at the tops, the right of which is stuffed to give the appearance of a false arm, and a plain white cloth glove is attached on the end of the right sleeve. A fingerless version of the glove is also worn on Ciaran's left hand, the back of which is emblazoned a white knight chess piece inside a red diamond inside a black heart, and the right glove has pieces of black metal attached at the fingertips to look like small claws. A long silver chain is also attached to the end and beginning of each sleeve, dangling down to Ciaran's knees, with the lowest twenty or so links decorated with diamond, heart, club, and spade shaped card suit charms on the left side and literal rook, queen, bishop, and knight chess pieces on the right, each set of charms alternating in red/white/black pattern. Gestalt and it's winch and sheath sit on her left fore arm as always, though it's neon blue dust tube from the winch is wrapped tightly with red ribbon secured in place with water-soluble glue, preventing the colors from clashing, and the lightning dust is specially treated to emit red sparks when in use.
Her midriff is crossed with a pair of thick leather belts three inches wide, one black with red, black, and white studs, the other white with black and red chess piece and card suit patterns, starting with a red heart pattern, then rook, then diamond, knight, spades, bishop, clubs, and queen.
Ciaran's upper thighs are wrapped with several small belts, a few plain black or white, and some with red, black, and white studs, buckled with small silver buckles with the excess of each belt facing the outsides of her legs. One of the belts on each leg has a small black pouch attached to them and these belts are the last ones put on. For footwear she'd wear a pair of mid-thigh-high white boots, with visible amounts of black and red checkered cloth on the insides and around the laces, which also peek out of the tops of the boots and go a few inches higher than the boots themselves. Around the sides of the soles are more suit of cards and chess symbols, in the same alternating red/white/black pattern, however unlike the chain charms the chess symbols are on the left boot and the card suit symbols on the right. The laces are made of three separate laces per boot, one white, one black, and one red, crossing regularly and exposing the checkered cloth underneath. The ends of each of the laces are tied in a single large bow, with a small red heart pin on the left boot and a small white knight pin on the right boot to hold the bows in place. The soles of the boots are also white and have on the left side a painted black heart, and on the right side a red diamond.
Atop Ciaran's head would rest a lopsided white witch's cap, with a long tapering crown which hangs down to the back of her neck, and a wide brim which would hang down to just over Ciaran's human ears and covering her faunus ones. The tip of the crown of the hat is weighted down by large silver ring with a small link of chain carrying a large knight chess piece painted white, with gleaming red diamond shaped eyes, and a painted black heart on the bottom of the piece. A black band stretches around the hat's sideband, touching the brim, under which the ace cards of a deck would sit. The hat has a pair of little loops which go around her ears and she'll pull her ears down as much as possible, helping hold the hat in place.
She'd still be wearing her parents rings on her left hand on her index and middle fingers, but on her ring and pinky finger would be a pair of smaller silver bands, one decorated with a rook symbol made of onyx and the other a spade made of gold-veined quartz. A silver choker with black velvet lining is around her neck, with a small silver jingle bell in the center. She'd have toe rings around her big toes as well, plain silver bands without decoration, a pair of earrings on her human ears, the left with a black spade charm, and the right with a black heart charm, and finally her belly button is pierced with a small queen charm.
For the most part, Ciaran considers this outfit a true challenge of her fashionista skills, and finds the amount of effort, mostly in applying the makeup, though she'd happily wear it without, well worth given the remarkably fashionable results. The outfit itself also represents her flair for the unique and flashy, contrasting to her personality, but she wears it more for herself than for anyone else, taking immense pride in her skill and ability to be fashionable. She particularly enjoys wearing the outfit due to how the poncho tends to flap around when she fights, helping to conceal what she's doing with her arm and keeping her relatively dry.
Putting on the outfit itself, particularly tying her shoes, also takes a while without assistance, however Ciaran has specially made a method of doing so to compensate, able to tie her shoes with the one hand with the assistance of flexibility and her teeth, and each piece is tailored a bit for ease of wear and removal, along with much of it being waterproofed and made with tearing resistance in mind to avoid any embarrassing coloration differences or dampness due to her having to bite pieces of the outfit to put them on correctly in a timely fashion.
Alt. Outfit: Ciaran dons a sports bra and knee length black leather shorts, capable of being closed with a small button and zipper and have small belt loops, and have decently sized, but slightly tight pockets on the back. On top of this goes a long-sleeved black leather jacket with its inside made of padded, quilted cloth, which hangs down to her mid-thigh, just past her shorts. The jacket's sleeves are fairly loose with the left being slightly looser than the right, and by the wrists are a pair of small punched holes, through which a small bit of white and neon blue striped elastic cord is drawn through, concealed within the sleeve on the outer sides but hanging openly through the holes on the inner sides of the wrists, allowing her to keep the sleeves loose around her wrists or draw them tight. On the left arm is a series of leather straps, fastened tight with metal buttons. The right arm of the jacket also connects to a black leather full- hand glove with circular studs at the knuckle where the hand and fingers would meet, and the arm below Ciaran's stump is stuffed to give off the appearance of having an arm, although it is completely useless as it is merely fiberfill stuffing. It is usually either held loose or, using the elastic cord, can be tied across her chest to a metal stud on the left side of the jacket front.
The front of the jacket also has two zippers, which allow the jacket to be zipped up or act more like a cape, which is facilitated by no less than ten straps across the front of the jacket, also made of black leather, with buckle fasteners on the right side and held down on the left side with snap fasteners inset into each strap, and if used alone the straps leave the jacket partially open. Along the right side under the buckles is also a long line of pink cloth which hides a cord to a pair of black, white, and neon blue plastic, specially made to fit over her faunus ears so she can listen to music with her human ones, and on the other end the cord is linked to a small pocket on the inside of the jacket near the bottom, where a music player can sit comfortably and accessible by a small steel zipper. The headphones can be removed and put back in by threading the cord down the pink cloth strap, and normally rest on top of the jacket's collar, which can be fastened with a pair of steel buttons up to Ciaran's chin and has extra soft fur lining on the inside.
Most importantly, the jacket has no less than six pockets including the small one for her music player, with two large spacious ones on the outside front which can be sealed with snap fasteners of the same type as the jacket straps, two smaller ones on the insides about halfway up the front of the jacket and sealed with steel zippers, and a long, thin pocket on the inside left sleeve, accessible by a small snap fastener three inches from the sleeve's opening and normally used to hide a candy dispenser and her scroll. On the back, Ciaran's jacket has her personal insignia, of a trio of water deer prancing around a sword-wielding warrior in black, neon blue, and white fabric and stitching between where her shoulder blades would be, and at the hem of the jacket's bottom on the back side are a pair of long leather straps of the same black as the rest of the jacket, with a thin line of neon blue in the center and two lines of neon white on either side of the blue line. The straps lead down to the backs of Ciaran's knees, and are weighed down by large metal rings, one for each strap, which also have five more smaller rings attached, making them jingle with pronounced movement.
Normally with this outfit Ciaran wears a pair of black tights under her shorts, and her normal footwear consists of a pair of mid-thigh length black leather boots, closed by criss-crossing white laces all the way up and tied in bows, on top of which on the right side also go a series of straps akin to those on her jacket. These straps are fastened to the shoes with buckles on the outsides and snap fasteners on the insides. Accessory wise, Ciaran wears a white elastic cloth armband 4 inches wide around her upper left arm on top of the jacket, emblazoned also with her insignia and two black and one neon blue lines in black/blue/black order at the top and bottom hems of the cloth. Ciaran also wears a black cloth wrap around her lower face, akin to bandages and tied under her hair at the back to hide her tusks. The wrap goes from where her neck meets her shoulders to just under her nose, and can be quickly pulled down to wrap around her neck or pulled off. She also wears a jeweled hairpin which holds her braid in it's loop, emblazoned with a crescent moon and a line of script, the title of the poem her tattoos are of. Occasionally, Ciaran wears a black tricorne with a fake white rose fastened to the left side, and the hat has a small pocket on the interior accessible by a pair of plastic snap fasteners.
Ciaran also wears knee and elbow pads made of black metal and stretchy fabric with two Velcro clasps on each piece, increasing her defense and giving her knees and elbows a little more kick. Ciaran also carries with her a black and white plaid messenger bag with multiple pockets and made to look like a stuffed, knitted cat made with gray and white yarn with the head on one side, a small tail on the other, and four knitted legs at the bottom of the bag, with a long strap made of black fabric and fastened with metal buckles, and a white book of epic fairytales and poems, contained in a black book protector emblazoned with a white metal decoration of vines around the edges of the book and an oval shaped smiling mask, with the title "Loveless" in the same raised metal lettering, closed with a snap fastener and having a small carrying strap, which fits on top of her messenger bag or can be put within. On her left hand is usually a black glove the same as that on her right without any studs, and a pair of silver rings, one a thin band with an eye-shaped front, the iris of which is made of lapis lazuli with gold veins, and the pupil an onyx stone, worn on her middle finger, and a thicker band with a large rectangular ruby which is somewhat translucent, under which is a tiny picture of a pair of water deer faunus in wedding clothes which is magnified by the gem.
Ciaran's weapon, Gestalt, consists of three forms, with an emphasis on close and mid range combat. In melee form, Gestalt is a segmented, single edged curved hand-and-a-half sword approximately 3.5 feet in length including hilt, with twenty blade segments made of blackened steel flats and bright polished edge, each possessing a downward-facing saw tooth edge and a small amount of curved blade, and possesses an elongated pentagonal cross-section. The point is sharpened to a single sided angular edge of 45 degrees in kissaki fashion. Gestalt has an ornate basket hilt made up of folding segments, which can rotate around the hilt to either form a basket or a more traditional hand guard, and has a segmented hilt with a trigger assembly just below the blade inside the basket. On it's flats, Gestalt is etched with dust-channeling grooves in the shape of a painted stormy sea, with a warrior in a boat in the middle, surrounded by a great sea serpent which runs from tip to hilt of the blade, with the same image on each side. The hilt is made of a similar metal as the blade, and is wrapped with textured leather, on top of which cloth is wrapped around it in a crossing pattern. This cloth ties at the top and bottom of the hilt. Gestalt's pommel is spherical in shape, and on it's end stretches a thin steel chain of about ten feet in length with a hollow cord wrapped around the links, connecting to an arm-mounted winch/dust canister combo which rests on Ciaran's left forearm, which attaches via a small wire to a strap on her hand with buttons for drawing, sheathing, and firing the weapons ranged mode.
In addition, on the same side of the hilt under the basket is a small pull-lever, which shifts the weapon between formed when pulled back or pushed down from sword mode. Pulling the handle down instead of forward/back will sheath the weapon, where the blade segments fold in on one another telescopically, exposing the gun barrel within the blade before it too telescopically folds, and the hilt and basket guard segments move in until the hilt is about half-length, from which the weapon is pulled up into Ciaran's sleeve by the winch, and securely fastened in a small pouch with a tension spring quick release for ease of drawing.
To shift to ranged mode, the pull lever is pulled out, and from sword mode the blade segments open up, moving to be straight before pulling back to make the blade about half it's length, and the gun barrel is exposed, with iron sights flipping up from the non-bladed portion of the weapon. The hilt angles itself at the guard, with the basket guard splitting on either side of the blade, and the hilt then adjusts its segments in a hand-friendly curve, forming a long pistol with a bayonet.
Gestalt's third form can be shifted to with the handle being pushed all the way in, upon which the basket hilt's segments fold on either side of the blade, making an upside down U shaped guard, and the blade folds in half with an inverse curve and then a full curve with the last six segments of the blade, with the segments aligning themselves in the same direction on both sides. The tip of the blade expands and angles to make a bell shaped blade, with the gun barrel becoming exposed as well. This mode is used primarily as a bladed chain whip, using the ranged component to further accelerate the blade, and Ciaran uses her legs, stomach, shoulders, and left elbow to redirect the momentum of the whip.
Aura Pool: 6 Semblance Cost: 4 Ciaran's Semblance, called "Mordstreich" is a last-ditch tool for Ciaran to eliminate single or multiple targets. Mordstreich summons five ethereal blades, taking a minor action to do so. Mordstreich is a single hit against a single target, resolved as a ranged attack of [dex]+[ranged weapons]+[semblance]. Ciaran must use Mordstreich within 2 rounds, or the swords will dissipate, refunding half the total aura cost.
Upon a successful hit dealing damage to the original target, the blades explode in a vibrant Cerulean and White burst of electrical energy, and make a further standard ranged attack against all targets within 1 yard of the original target, resolved as an attack of [expression]+[semblance], however the explosion will not further damage the original target. Mordstreich drains Ciaran significantly, and upon use she immediately suffers from intense nausea and a migraine, and must pass a Resolve check. If she fails, Ciaran suffers a -1 to all mental skills and attributes until gaining a full night's rest, in addition to suffering damage concurrent with Painful Semblance.
The swords Mordstreich summons are 2-yard long broadswords with a slightly elliptical tip and a slight, with a simple rectangular guard and a long straight hilt with a spherical pommel. The flats of the blades each have a 'living' sea serpent motif, which moves throughout the blades, occasionally unleashing a silent roar, which causes a crackling electric effect across the blades.
Within one of the hospitals along the coast of Vale, Ciaran was born four weeks premature to her mother, Ivory Cerulean, and her father Noir Cerulean due to intense complications. Due to the nature of her birth, it was suspected that Ciaran may not live long out of the womb, and was immediately placed on life support. In addition, Ciaran was born intersex, a fact which caused her parents much concern, though Ciaran herself would not learn until much later. Within a week, though, she and her mother recovered from the ordeal and went home to the island of Patch. Growing up as the youngest of three siblings, Ciaran was the only one to inherit her father's water deer heritage, whereas the remainder of her siblings turned out to be whitetail deer like her mother. A very sickly girl for her first few years, Ciaran spent most of her time at home in her youth, with her first few years of education handled by either a private tutor or her grandfather, both paid for by her father's position as a teacher at Signal Academy, and her mother's status as a small corporate executive for a chain of stores in Vale. Despite her sickly nature, Ciaran was a capable student, spending much of her time studying and learning not only basic education, but learning about the nature of the world and the inhabitants of it, both human, faunus, and otherwise. From this tender age her grandfather, Royale Cerulean, and her father inspired in Ciaran a desperate desire to one day become a huntress, enthralling her with tales of heroes and huntsmen, of dark, far off forests infested with grimm, and the brave men and women who ventured forth to protect humanity.
With the assistance of a physical therapist, Ciaran's condition improved, and though she was identifiably behind the growth of her peers, she managed to become much more physically active, though her physical development being so far behind led to her being very short, and becoming the cause of several speech issues, including a slight lisp and, due to her isolated nature, a stuttering, stammering manner of speech. For this, and her faunus heritage growing in tusks by the age of eight, Ciaran was often made fun of when she did go outside, which eventually led to her fleeing one day into the woods after a particularly rough day of being bullied. She walked for several hours, eventually collapsing, tired and afraid, after climbing a small tree in the middle of the forest, coated in mud and grime, with scrapes, cuts, and bruised from the long journey. Alas, her fear and ill-feelings attracted the attention of a nearby beowolf, which rushed the tree the poor girl was resting in, knocking it over, causing her right arm to be crushed underneath the tree's trunk. Unable to get past all the branches atop the poor girl for some time, the Beowolf's snarling and Ciaran's screams of fear and pain eventually attracted her father and grandfather, who had been looking for her since she had been reported missing. The two huntsmen vanquished the Beowolf, however Ciaran's arm was beyond repair, having to be removed surgically due to being crushed and losing blood flow for so long.
Feeling her dreams of becoming a huntress had been crushed, Ciaran once more became isloated in her room, refusing to even look at the tales of heroism she once so enjoyed. However, her parents and grandparents refused to give up on her, and though she was unable to be fitted with a prosthetic due to still developing physically, her father brought in several friends of his at Signal, and her grandfather had his old teammates visit the young girl, including an amputee who, like her, had also lost an arm. These constant visits were at first met with incredible resistance from the young faunus girl, however they continued, and eventually, she agreed to train to become a proper huntress, under the tutelage of her grandfather, and his teammate, a man by the name of Blake Royale, the same man who had lost his own right arm many years prior in a grimm attack. In addition, she finally learned about her being intersex after reading about particularly womanly things, and finding out she didn't have several... particular issues. This discovery led to her entirely devoting herself to femininity, as she fully and vehemently felt if anyone found out she'd be seen as even more of a freak. However, she continued learning from the many resources available to her, and under this tutelage, plus with the assistance of a speech therapist for her impediments, Ciaran began to slowly improve, to learn how to fight with only one arm, and with her small stature how to use her knees and elbows to add weight to her strikes. The speech therapy was an immense help to her lisp, diminishing it, however she continued to be shy and stutter, to which her therapist assigned her a variety of stores, poems, and songs, suggesting to her to constantly practice. When singing, Ciaran was surprisingly free of most of her stuttering, revealing the psychological cause underlying her difficulties in speech, and sparking in her a great love of words. As another set of interests, Ciaran became enthralled not only in becoming a huntress, but with music, art, and dance as well, learning from the older guests her grandfather had over how to formally dance, and from Blake how to incorporate the moves she learned into her fighting style. With this tutelage she became a Capoierista, a style of fighting she felt was key to her success when it came time to attend Signal.
At Signal, Ciaran learned not only about furthering her movements in combat, but how to use her small nature as a plus, using her elbow and knees to not only fight, but to disable her opponents with careful strikes. She also learned how to design a weapon, and, feeling that she wanted a weapon that could not only be wielded with just her one arm, but also have significant reach, began designing Gestalt, named such after one of her favorite fairytale characters. When Gestalt, along with other weapons, were finally made, Ciaran and the other first year students at Signal were sent into the forest for an initiation, during which Ciaran made multiple friends despite her speech impediment. Many of the students at signal thought that she was not only adorable due to her small stature, but that her tusks and missing arm made her look like a total badass, a feat of which impressed and embarassed the young girl to no end. Finally, Ciaran felt accepted and cared for by her peers, inspiring confidence in the girl for the first time in many years. During this time she was partnered with another girl, a fashionable person by the name of Viridian Royale, Blake's great-niece. Viridian was the perfect partner for Ciaran, providing a ranged accompaniment to Ciaran's flowing melee attacks. During the initiation, Ciaran also unleashed her semblance for the first time.
On the return leg of the journey, the two girls encountered a large group of Beowolves, which first made Ciaran freeze up, remembering the day so long ago when she frist lost her arm. Unable to snap her friend out of it, Viridian was forced to fight mostly alone, and it was only after seeing her friend, someone who barely knew her but was so kind and amazing, fight so hard for her that Ciaran snapped back into attention, with a rallying cry using Mordstreich, the ethereal blades cutting through the Beowolf ranks, killing several and causing the remainder to flee. This first use however was incredibly taxing, causing the young girl to pass out. When she awoke, her family and Viridian were all waiting for her, and she returned after a week recovering to Signal, furthering her development. Viridian herself caused an interest in Ciaran for fashion, later designing her own outfit to compliment Gestalt and her manner of fighting, combining fashionable tastes and effective armor into one, and mixing them all with her unique fighting style, taking the essentials of Capoiera and adding to them other elements as well, giving Ciaran great ability in combat. At the end of their time at Signal, Viridian and her family moved away to Mistral, and with a tearful goodbye and a promise to never give up, Ciaran applied into Beacon, and was accepted, eager to continue learning and to one day, become the best one-armed huntress anyone ever heard of, and as a legacy to her family, her parents had made for her a pair of rings, which she wears to the day, further driving her desires to protect and serve, just like the heroes she grew up among.
Ciaran is at her core an incredibly shy girl, typically speaking only when spoken to or asked to speak unless something of desperate importance arises. When she does talk, Ciaran prefers to speak in short, simple terms to minimize the impact of her stutter with a soft tone, rarely ever going above just-loud-enough-to-understand, and is always conscious of how she sounds to others. This insecurity is diminished when Ciaran tells stories from her book, or sings, allowing her to ignore the issues and stresses of well, talking to other people. She continues to stutter and her lisp may impact her performance, but overall she has a beautiful singing voice, and a knack for knowing just how to tell a story. She also has some degree of dancing skill, particularly with formal dances, though she also knows and takes great pleasure in knowing how to sword-dance.
Despite her shy nature, Ciaran is certain of her combat ability, and while she won't boast or undermine her prowess in a fight, she can get carried away when she has a passionate cause to fight. Against bullies she has no tolerance, and attempts to demean her faunus heritage are met first with silence, and second with revenge equal to the transgression. She is very protective of both her rings, and her book of tales and poems. Despite her shy nature and troublesome past, Ciaran is typically very happy-go-lucky, glad to make friends where she can and happy to help others, with an understanding that hope is the most important thing she can have, and inspiring it is simple as being nice to others and believing in them, just as so many people in her life had believed in herself.
In addition, she treats the origin of her birth as a very deep and embarrassing secret, and endeavors to appear as feminine as possible, affecting both her combat style and her wardrobe. When angered, Ciaran is a long burning fuse, able to withstand significant faults and accept many transgressions before she'll finally snap, feeling that she doesn't want to make trouble for anyone anymore. Her ears and her tusks are a good way of understanding her mood, and she'll flatten her ears and bare her tusks if she's angry or upset with someone, otherwise holding them high with a wide smile on her lips.
