Coming from a family tasked with defending the crown of Demacia, Lux showed potential of being a strong magical girl at a very young age, and was accepted into Crux Academy shortly before her thirteenth birthday. She has been attending the school for nearly three years.
An admirer of magical girls since she was young, imagine Hanayo's surprise when she was recruited by Crux Academy! She'll find her powers primarily have a very Rice Goddess/Demeter/Virgo sort of theme, though that they're ultimately based in music.
Unfortunately, spotlight is frightening without a team and she worries a lot that maybe she's only fit to be a sidekick of some sort. So I'd love to hash out a great μ's AU with canonmates and make them a fantastic group ♥
Kyouko Sakura became a magical girl at the age of 12, when she made a contract with an extraterrestrial being called Kyubey. This contract granted her one wish in exchange for her agreeing to fight witches as a magical girl. Kyouko wished that people would listen to her father, a preacher who preached outside of the traditional bible. Kyouko initially wanted to fight for justice, and the good of mankind, but she lost this idealism when her father found out about her wish. He accused her of being the very thing she fought against, and killed himself and her family. Kyouko's wish to help her family ultimately destroyed it, in the end.
After that, Kyouko vowed to only fight for herself, because selfless actions just wind up hurting the people you love. She fought selfishly and alone for years, until she met Sayaka Miki, another magical girl. Kyouko wanted to keep Sayaka from making the same mistakes she made. Kyouko was unsuccessful, however, and wound up sacrificing herself to save Sayaka. This, too, failed.
Kyouko has been brought to Crux Academy post-sacrifice. She is working on her first formal training as a magical girl, and how to fight for justice without causing more pain. Her weapon of choice is a spear, and her special skill is illusions. Kyouko is now in her second year at the academy, and is sixteen years old.
A little boy crazy, a little tempermental, a little bit of a slacker, Yohko is more conscientious and dedicated than most 16 year old girls might normally be. Yohko is the 108th generation of demon slayers in the Mano family, a fate assigned to all of the women of her bloodline that remain virgins until their first official day as a demon hunter. It is her job to keep demons from wreaking havoc and keep sleeping demons and spirits from being disturbed.
While she didn't exactly ask to be transferred to Crux Academy, it was insisted upon by her grandmother. Not only is she jealous of all of the other girls that have sparkly pink magic, she's also jealous that they never seem to get their magical girl ensembles cut open as much as she does!
Megumi is no stranger to magical girls - being a Sign user, she already has experience tapping into powers sourced from her own sense of identity. The heads of Eden's Corvius Academy sent her to Crux to further hone her powers... but whether she properly adheres to the school's standards is still in question.
Her sign is Radiance, which grants her heat and light based powers. She'll be a force of brilliant destruction in battle, rest assured.
Further information on her homeworld and powers can be found on her journal.
Neptune is a ‘transfer student’ from Haven Academy, another combat school in the universe of Remnant. Out there, magical powers are usually called Semblances. Neptune’s Semblance isn’t terribly flashy, or indeed that noticeable at all; it’s an uncanny ability to predict the movement paths of bullets, knives, swords, and other weapons. Compared to some other Semblances like pyrokinesis or detonating clones, he sees it as kinda lame. However, it does mean that he’s really good with his weapon. Said weapon is a highly technical instrument, able to transform between an energy gun, a trident, and a guan dao, and mainly uses blue electricity to power its attacks. The trident and guan dao forms can also be electrified, but in Galactica, this only works when he's transformed. Out of costume, the trident and guan dao are just regular polearms, and the gun is totally useless.
Another aspect of the AU, which hasn’t been confirmed or denied in canon, is that Neptune is a humanoid creature called a Faunus with physical traits like a fish’s. He has gills on his torso and blue scaly patches on his arms and legs. However, Neptune goes to great lengths to hide this, mainly due to a crippling phobia of water among other reasons.
Princess of the Blue Sky Kingdom, Hime became a magical girl to save her homeland after she accidentally opened the Axia Box. She might be a bit of a whiner and kind of a brat, but Hime's bound and determined to help stop the Phantom Empire and save the world.
She's come to Crux Academy post canon and while she's down-right certain she'll be able to make new friends and become an even better magical girl here, she's kind of anxious about the fact that everybody she knows is back at home. Somebody please help keep this child from backsliding into shyness.
The latest in a long line of heroes bearing the soul of a great Hero from times past. Link is a little different than many of his classmates, lacking the high flying acrobatics and sheer magical might of many of his classmates and his magical transformation is little more than a quick change into a green tunic and chainmail shirt with a flash of light. But what he does have is a sacred sword that repels evil magic and boundless pockets to hold the veritable arsenal passed down to him from Heroes of the past.
This Link grew up an orphan on the outskirts of a small village before Destiny Called and led him to the steps of Crux Academy. Despite adapting to living near a big city he's still very much a country boy at heart up with the sun and spending his days outdoors whenever he can. He doesn't talk much and he can be kind of serious but he's a pretty nice and helpful guy who won't back down from any threat the powers of darkness dream up.
Chosen for the titanical task of protecting the Earth as a magical girl (which will obviously center around Japan), Konata Izumi was a student from the Saitama Prefecture, chosen to be a magical girl thanks to the incompetence of the magical bureaucratic system in charge of picking one for each city.
Briefly driven mad with power upon defeating a tentacle monster, Konata got bored with being a magical girl and slacked around while ignoring the monsters of the week for the most part, and demoting her wand from its purpose of befriending lovecraftian monsters to a back-scratcher. Unless somebody threatens to attack the local manga store.
With her transfer into a new school, Konata Izumi is finally threatened with the propect of doing actual work.
A shy and withdrawn highschooler who really doesn't consider herself magical girl material, SO YOU CAN IMAGINE SHE'S A LITTLE BIT STUNNED TO BE HERE. She shrinks away from the idea of fighting a little, and eventually finds her powers developing more along the lines of healing and support magic versus out and out offensive attacks.
Ban is a surprisingly gentle, and quiet and nice person considering that he looks like a yankee. Trasferring here in his second year from his hometown, Ban was given a chance to become a Precure, like he secretly dreams of being. Adopting the name Cure Fire, he is an Unofficial Precure, dressed in what basically amounts to a masculine Precure outfit. He doesn't have a fairy, taking the same status as say, Ayumi being a phantom Precure. His attacks are Fire Storm and Fire Punch and Fire Kick.
When Kirino joined the Raimon soccer team, he wasn't anticipating becoming a magical boy. Fate has a funny way of working sometimes. However, after uncovering his Keshin Armed abilities, he was soon brought to Crux Academy, much to his surprise. His abilities tend towards defense and support, but if he needs to get his lumps in on the monster of the week, he can.
Born Princess Hope Delight Towa of a country in an alternate universe, Hope Kingdom, Towa's own impatience to be a fine princess led her to being maniuplated by the forces of evil. Having learned to take life step by step, however, she's gained the power to transform into Cure Scarlet and is working towards becoming a Grand Princess and restoring her country to its former glory.
She still has trouble treating everyone like equals on occasion, however. And she's more sheltered than she thinks...
Impossibly attractive and hopelessly cool, Haruka's inability to take anything seriously while not transformed is only matched by her earnest devotion to her Mission as Sailor Uranus. Conventional magical girl morality means nothing to her - she'll use any effective means to achieve her goals.
But hey, on her off time, you might get called "kitten".
Mami Tomoe is a veteran magical girl, who transferred to Crux Academy two years ago. She is a Puella Magi, capable of creating ribbons and firearms with her magic. She is friendly, but she tends to act as a mentor -- and in turn, keeps her true emotions hidden. She cares deeply for justice and doing the right thing above all else, even though it sometimes takes a toll on her.
Coming from a family of botanists, Tsubomi's life was painfully lonely until an emotional breakdown convinced her parents to stop their old job and move to a new town, Kibogahana. Here, she ended up becoming the magical girl Cure Blossom and not only defended the world against the Desertrians, but also overcome her emotional hangups and become a stronger person.
She has been accepted into Crux Academy to not only improve her magical girl skills, but also to help in forming stronger bonds and become an even better person.
Scouted well before her super suit was designed, and her original power set intact, Kamala hides her identity as Carol Danvers, the powerful Ms Marvel. She's taken up her name in a fit of worry, and basically stays as Kamala for the most part unless danger arises. Then the strong and beautiful Carol steps in. Or at least Kamala hopes so.
TSUBASA KAZANARI ☆the other pe teacher and occasional music assistant
Idol singer by day, mighty sentinel by night. Tsubasa used to be the archetypical little sister masquerading as a cool senpai. Now she's taken up the mantle of teacher.
Somewhat less gay than the other teachers. Not that that says much.
Already old when Shining Crux Palida took over the role of headmistress of the academy- Draco, as he's come to be known as humans cannot possibly pronounce his true name, recalls a time when dragons soared the skies, magic filled the world and dragons were teachers and guardians of mankind. A golden age that came to an end when darkness settled over the world and some men began to hunt dragons for sport. Now, dragons are rare creatures indeed and some rumors whisper that the one taking up residence near the Academy may be the last.
He still holds to the old ways though and hopes to pass his wisdom down to a new generation of noble and good heroes, teaching many subjects although he specializes in history and astronomy, and although he's technically on the Crux Academy staff he has been known to take on Nebulae students who come his way wishing to learn. Despite his fearsome appearance, and an old, unspoken sin that weighs on his soul, he's quite friendly and good natured... after all, what dragon wouldn't be with so many lovely young maidens around? Especially those who appreciate his singing.
Just don't come around his cave looking to earn a reputation as a dragonslayer. He's still picking bits of Sir Eglamore out of his teeth.
PLAGUE KNIGHT ☆potions teacher, part time school nurse...?
A knight from a faraway kingdom whose alchemical skills are unparalleled. Able to perform incredible feats of transmutation and transformation, it's likely that given time and experimentation he'll be able to solve any problem a student brings to him.
Don't be fooled by Plague Knight's diminutive stature; he more than makes up for his small size with his delight in making incredibly large explosions (and his unerring accuracy with bombs, especially if he's insulted). A scientist with a taste for chaos, he views the students of Crux as potential reagents likely to react in all kinds of ways, and thus teaches the values of teamwork (...though very heavily couched in potion-brewing metaphor) as well as traditional alchemy. Though he might be fragile, he's in no way unused to the arduous work of combat.
Though he's been knighted for his good deeds in faraway lands, has turned over a new leaf in order to continue his scientific studies in somewhere that isn't an underground basement and was recruited as an alchemy teacher for this purpose, he really does seem more than a little out of place in Crux...
A creation of Dark Fall, Michiru begins as a loyal servant to Lord Akudaikaan along with her sister Kaoru. Lacking in human qualities like love and friendship, she initially has a very dark view of the world, desiring only to destroy the world. After befriending Saki Hyuuga and Mia Mishou, however, Michiru's views begin to change, and she and her sister switch sides, sacrificing themselves for the sake of their friends in the final battle of the series. Thanks to the power of the spirits, Michiru and her sister are revived and are able to live their lives as normal girls, as evidenced by the finale a year later.
Michiru is capable of both offense and defense, and has powers based in moonlight, having inherited Cure Bright's powers after the finale. She isn't quite a proper Pretty Cure, but functions as one just the same. She's been attending the academy for several months.
Konami is an A-rank Boarder Agent. She's use to fighting and thoroughly enjoys it. Confident in her skills there aren't too many that can stand up with the fiery attacker from Tamakoma Branch. Despite her abilities and experience in close combat; she is extremely gullible and childish. When she isn't being picked on by her teammates, fighting Neighbors or yelling at someone for eating her sweets... she is here at the Academy polishing her magical girl skills! And boy do those need some work. Konami is still adjusting to the idea of magic vs Trion. She isn't too interested in the academic side of the school but sticks around for the action and getting stronger so she can protect her world that much more.
The daughter of a world famous supermodel and an equally world famous actor, Kirara Amanogawa is a rapidly rising star in the world of fashion modeling. Already well on her way to achieving her dream of worldwide fame, she also has the ability to transform into the Princess of the Shining Stars, Cure Twinkle a defender of hopes and dreams. Determined to be the best she can as both Kirara Amanogawa and Cure Twinkle she's beginning her first year at Crux Academy as another step on her path to the world stage. Even if career obligations have her starting a little later in the school year. Oh well, can't be helped.
Friendly, playful and hardworking, Kirara is prepared to make one heck of a splash at her new school. Crux Academy won't know what hit it.
An energetic young girl who's always eager to reach a helping hand out to people whenever she can, Megumi became one of the legendary warriors by pure chance and pretty much leaped into duty from there, fighting against the nefarious Phantom Empire and saving the world.
Arriving at Crux Academy post-canon, she's ecstatic to make new friends and become even stronger than before. Because engaging in hand-to-hand combat with a god in space apparently isn't enough for this friend of god. No seriously, the god of Earth is her friend. She's had a crush on him at one point. And the god she'd fought in space is his brother.
Rinko is a Wizard that has been on loan from Majika World. She is a skilled mage, and has gotten top grades in her world. She is unaware that her world is merely an illusionary world, but she is also a magician of considerable skill. Her primary magical power is the considerable power of her Phantom within her soul and channeled into the Magic Rings she wears.
Many years ago, Qrow Branwen was part of a team of magical heroes that challenged and managed to defeat a tremendous darkness and force it back before it destroyed the entire world. The darkness was defeated and light and hope lived another day... but not every story has a happy ending. The details are shrouded in secrecy but it is known that one member of the team lost their lives in the battle and another... vanished. The third retired from battling evil and that leaves only Qrow.
The only active member of that group of heroes, Qrow is nearly a legend unto himself, balancing his time between venturing out into the world to challenge the forces of evil and returning to Crux Academy where he teaches a very special elective: Combat.
Whatever reputation he might be coming in with he's quickly known as two things. An unforgivingly tough and difficult to impress instructor to his students. And a grouchy jerk who drinks in the teachers' lounge to his fellow faculty.
Hailing from a world known as Doki Doki World, Mana grew up in a world without heroes until a chance encounter awoke her heroic powers. She then came here, after repairs has begun on her world.
Bearing the power of the fallen Cure Black and White in her world, Mana seeks to learn how to control her power, and eventually retake her world from the darkness which has surrounded it for a decade. She is known as Cure Heart in her transformed state.
Hailing from an underground kingdom of monsters that were locked away for centuries, Undyne is one of the more unusual faces seen around Crux Academy. While the informal introduction to the academy she recieved wasn't the most welcoming, it was quickly proven that she wasn't just the average evil monster to punch. A voucher from a certain Human friend also settled any disputes against her.
Undyne is the hotblooded teacher this school needs; no-nonsense at first glance, but once her guard id down she's easily one of the more personable teachers on campus. and a giant nerd when it comes to anime. Still, as the former Captain of the Royal Guard, she can keep up with the best of her students. A necessary skill, as she started teaching the virtues of determination.
No one gets hurt in her classes. For the most part. She is liable to start impromptu spear-dodging sessions with her classes though. She's gone on record saying it's suppose to keep them on their toes.
