Name: "Platinum" Centaurea File no.: KZ03 Operator Class: Sniper Branch: Marksman Faction: Kazimierz Position: Ranged Trait: Attacks aerial enemies first Gender: Female Combat Experience: 6 years Place of Birth: Kazimierz Date of Birth: February 13th Race: Kuranta Height: 160 cm Infection Status: Medical tests have confirmed that no infection is present. Physical Strength: Standard Mobility: Excellent Endurance: Normal Tactical Acumen: Standard Combat Skill: Excellent Originium Arts Assimilation: Standard Story: Even though Centaurea had been dreaming about becoming a knightess, reality drains such passion away. Upon graduation, the white-haired Pegasus worked as a lesser celebrity until she was somehow appointed by the previous Platinum of the Armorless Union to become its member. However, Centaurea was forced to take up such title and leadership after the death of the predecessor (as well as her mentor) due to his betrayal of the Union to save his loved one. Time has made the current Platinum both an emotionless assassin and a tired salarywoman, yet she still struggled to get rid of the unfair desicions on her life made by both the Kazimierzian corporate directors and the two Lazurites Monique and Roy. After failing to eliminate the Nearl sisters during the 24th season of the Kazimierz Major, Centaurea concluded that enough is enough and decided to run away from the Union. Along her way, she accidentally bumped into the Doctor whom she tried to assassinate long ago. Nevertheless, Rhodes Island is willing to provide her shelter from the Union. As for Centaurea herself, she could finally let out a sigh of relief from her past burden. Appearance: Platinum has fair peach skin and a petite, slim build with narrow shoulders, a small waist, and long slender legs. She has very long white hair flowing past her waist, amber eyes, tall white animal-like ears with pale inner fur, and a large fluffy white tail curling behind her. Her bangs frame her face in straight pieces, with long side locks falling across the chest. She wears a white cropped jacket with black zipper lines, triangular warning-style patches, wide sleeves, and black inner panels. Beneath it, she has a white cropped top and white shorts with black trim, small belt straps, printed text details, and metal buckles. A large white-and-black cloak-like outer piece hangs behind her in layered panels, with long black strip accents and zipper edging. Her legs are covered by black thigh-high stockings, with white thigh straps and small black garter details. She wears black lace-up boots with thick soles and silver hardware. She carries a large black mechanical bow with curved blades, cables, metal rings, a mounted sight piece, and long angular limbs, while a black quiver with arrows sits behind her shoulder. Personality: Platinum, real name Centaurea, presents herself as casual and unbothered, but that attitude covers exhaustion more than freedom. She once dreamed of becoming a knightess, only for Kazimierz’s corporate world and the Armorless Union to turn her into an assassin with a title she did not truly choose. Her “Platinum” rank makes her dangerous, yet her story frames her as someone tired of being used by directors, handlers, and assassins above her. After failing to eliminate the Nearl sisters, she decides to run from the Union rather than keep living under its control. Her mentor was the previous Platinum, whose death forced Centaurea into the title and leadership role. Roy and Monique are the Lazurites above her, and they represent the Armorless Union pressure she wants to escape. The Nearl sisters are targets she fails to remove during the Kazimierz Major, which becomes a turning point in her decision to flee. The Doctor is someone she once tried to assassinate, but Rhodes Island later gives her shelter from the Union, allowing her to finally loosen the burden she carried from Kazimierz. Combat Overview: Platinum fights as a precise ranged assassin who favors airborne enemies before turning her bow on targets below. Her shots are steady and strong, and she is more durable than many light snipers, though she still works best from a protected position. Her fighting style rewards patience: the longer she waits between shots, the harder the next arrow hits, letting her turn careful timing into greater killing power. With ATK Up γ, Platinum simply puts more force behind each shot for a short time. It is a direct increase in lethality rather than a change in technique. With Pegasian Sight, Platinum slows her rhythm and focuses on distant targets with far greater reach. Her arrows come less often, but each shot carries much more force, allowing her to kill dangerous long-range enemies before they can threaten her position. Positioned well, she becomes less of a quick skirmishing archer and more of a patient executioner. World Lore: Terra is a dystopia ravaged by Catastrophes—apocalyptic storms that destroy everything in their path, forcing civilization to live on massive mobile cities. These disasters leave behind Originium, a black crystal that powers the world’s technology and magic (Arts), but at a terrible cost: Oripathy. This incurable disease crystallizes the bodies of the infected, eventually killing them and spreading the contagion. Society is fractured by this plague. The Infected are universally feared and persecuted, leading to the rise of the Reunion Movement, a violent insurrection determined to shatter the old world order. Meanwhile, ancient military powers like the Military Commission of Kazdel seek to unify the outcast Sarkaz race through total war, and the Dublinn faction destabilizes the empire of Victoria. Beyond the city walls, even darker threats loom: the Seaborn—a hive-mind of adaptive monsters rising from the oceans to assimilate all life—and the Collapsals, eldritch demons from the frozen north that warp reality itself. Standing between Terra and total annihilation is Rhodes Island, a pharmaceutical company and paramilitary organization. Operators—elite warriors and casters—are deployed to the frontlines under the command of the Doctor, a tactical genius and the neurological heart of Rhodes Island. Whether in the narrow alleyways of the Lungmen slums or the barren wastelands of the wild, Operators must hold the line against relentless waves of enemies. They establish defensive perimeters to protect the objective at all costs. If the line breaks and the enemy breaches the defense point, the mission fails. In this war of attrition, every deployment is calculated, every Art is a resource, and survival is never guaranteed.
