PERSONALITY & HISTORY
Just like a petal, she is delicate and fragile, being only one part of the blossoming flower that is our universe. She possesses otherworldly beauty, wisdom and grace and holds an air of royalty and serenity, however she also retains a sense of melancholy. When within her presence she exudes an aura of calmness that can soothe the souls of those around her, cleansing them of their own worries and doubts.
As is the case with many Celestials, her anger is absolutely terrifying to behold, let alone incur. However, in Petal’s case it can often be considerably worse due to the sheer power she possesses and her lack of control over it.
Despite her melancholy and easily inflamed wrath, Petal is a highly empathetic soul. Empathy is a common trait amongst Celestials, particularly those of higher ranking as they appear to understand the fragility of life and how emotions can sway one’s decision making.
However, she is not as empathetic as she was in her previous incarnation as Eirana, nor as naive and blinded by ignorance. In exchange for the heightened strength, magical prowess and the mysticism she gained as Petal, she lost a fair amount of her compassionate and understanding nature. As a result she is far less forgiving, particularly if the injuries inflicted upon her are substantial. Often, the consequence of harming her is to suffer tenfold in turn by Petal, with her claiming that ‘if you hurt someone, you should prepare to experience it in return’.
Petal occasionally displays cruel, almost Mortis’a-esque cracks in her personality. While she is not an overly cruel being, she is gifted with such immense power that it can create chaos within her Core, creating an emotionally-charged “berserk” form known as Thorn. As the saying goes; “every rose has its’ thorn”.
As Petal walks, she creates a trail of tiny, blooming flowers and scatterings of petals, both of which glitter and burst with sparkles and magical illumination. The center of each flower holds a special crystal, each with a unique facet. The flower holds healing properties, the crystal focusing primarily on healing wounds and minor ailments while the petals, once crushed, can create a salve that acts as a purification medication.
Petal is somewhat druidic, possessing knowledge of herbology, potion brewing and natural solutions to ailments or injuries. She can commune with air and nature by planting a crystal flower in the earth, receiving information and energy from the flora and fauna around it. This is achieved through her flower possessing a fragment of Petal’s own mana, which spreads throughout the flower and is absorbed into the crystal petals, allowing her to communicate with it through the mana connection in an almost psychic manner.
This ability applies to Petal for all of the planes and planets within the Milky Way Galaxy due to her position of being the Princess of the Milky Way Celestials. Another skill she possesses due to this status is an innate ability to listen and understand the state of the galaxy’s health, hearing whispers within her Core through the flowers in her hair of the Will of the Universe and Wish alike.
Her voice has an airy quality, but she is not soft-spoken. She doesn’t speak often, due to considering words too precious to be wasted, but when she does speak she is clear and concise in her meaning. Petal is as a result very blunt and honest, sometimes forgetting to spare other’s feelings.
In this manner, she is somewhat akin to Hex and it is probably one of the reasons that Hex respects Petal in the sense that both are prone to chaotic outbursts of emotional and magical nature.
Petal’s mother was Airily, the Celestial of Magic. Airily was what was known as a Mana Bender, able to control and harness any and all magical powers and use them to her whim. Airily passed this ability onto her daughter, in lesser form, allowing her to quickly learn and absorb new magical techniques and mimic them. She has prowess in the four elements but possesses particular talent with water and nature based elemental control. While using her elemental abilities her attacks have a powder blue colouration.

► She always wears a reverse teardrop vial which is attached to a collar around her throat, housing her own customary emergency Stardust. This comes in handy when she is low on power but must heal a grievous wound. This is actually her ashes, preserved by Stardust maintaining its’ existence.
► A thin crystal band which constantly floats around her cat tail, letting off a gentle glow. This houses her lance in it’s unchained form.
► A thin metallic lance, one side a spear and the other a hook. It is able to be launched great distances to cause damage from planet to planet.
► Her crystallized lily petal flower trinkets are capable of being charged with holy energy and used offensively as shurikens.
► A thin, tassled white belt embellished in various - generally floral - trinkets and cast in whitegold that can hold several vials of varying size and shape, containing potions and/or water and stardust.
ABILTIES & POWERS
OFFENSIVE
> Crystal Flower Generation
Instead of relying on mana or stardust, Trinket is able to create crystal flowers from the palms of her hands without needing to draw blood. They emerge in a flurry of small petals and are able to be unsummoned and re-summoned in quick succession for continuous attacks. Each flower possesses a slightly different offensive ability. Each petal is a different flower representing purity: lilies, lotuses and rainflowers.
> Crystal Flower Combat
Trinket can form crystallized flowers and individual flower petals to be used offensively as shurikens or fired in a flurry.
> Hydrokinetic Combat
Able to fight with water and water-based attacks. Trinket’s powers allow for her to easily control bodies of water both around and within her, as well as draw moisture from the air around her, and is able to create miniature tsunamis from at least 500mL of water.
> Crystal Combat
Alongside her flowers, Petal is also able to summon crystals of various sizes and use them in combat. She can deconstruct these crystals down to the very Stardust particle from which they were formed and use them in a scattershot attack.
These abilities also include:
> Crystal Spike Generation
- Firing spikes at her opponent.
> Crystal Cutting
- Able to cut her target with crystals.
> Crystal Blast
- A rapid release of crystals over one specific area.
> Crystal Hand Blasts
- Similar to Crystal Blast, but coming from the hand instead, intended for close range.
