Magic: Crystal Mimicry
Low-tier: Crystal objects
-She is able to turn crystals that she forms in her hands into objects! More of a show-off ability, not much stress on her body
-Small objects such as cards, coins, etc. can be replicated easily in the palm of her hand
-Cannot form an object she doesn't know of! She has to know of what the object looks like before she can attempt replicating an object
High-tier: Crystalize
She is able to use her knowledge of protecting her body from incoming threats by turning parts of her skin into pure crystal to preserve vital organs from getting hit.
-The skin basically becomes a protective layer that's completely solid and it's difficult to do damage to her. However, you can chip away at the layer.
-This uses a significant amount of energy as she uses her body water in order to cover her skin, so this tires her out significantly and cannot have it on for too long until it starts to wear her down.
Personality:
Assertive: Chrys is unmistakably a woman of confidence and class who holds high standards for herself and other people. She has a very strong personality and tends to take over when needed, speak up for people who decide not to, take control of a situation that has gone out of hand. Not to be mistaken with her being cocky, but she knows and understands how she operates on a daily basis and in professional settings.
Sophisticated: Chrys has a specific way that she goes about things, especially conflicts. She's very classy about it, elegant, handles things with finesse. The way she speaks is full of poise, especially in schmoozing her co-workers and using her sense of charisma to get the workforce to listen to her. She will always opt to 'being a lady' about handling most things and tries her best avoid conflict.
Self-sufficient: She knows how to handle herself in general and in stressful situations. Planning ahead and understanding her responsibilities is what she's good at, she tends to not need anyone's assistance and prefers to handle it all on her own.
Ambitious: She has a constant goal of meaning something for people and doing something meaningful with her life. She does not settle for less and will always proceed to do better each time she tries something. She aspires to continue impressing herself and achieving things to the highest degree and doesn't stop until she gets what she set her goals for.
Bossy: She holds herself to the highest degree and is expecting the best of the best out of you too. She has a tendency to boss people around a bit, as her assertiveness will get in the way and automatically starts to direct people to do things or correct and ask them to do it this way instead of the way they're doing it. Especially at work, if workers present her with something she doesn't exactly like, she will tell them to redo it, even if the person feels that it's okay. A side effect of being raised around commanding parents, who often told her to do it their way instead of her way. Well now people will do it her way and they can't do anything about it..for now.
Picky: It's very hard to impress her, as there's always something that looks off to her. She will nit-pick every little thing you present and will find something that she doesn't like until she deems it 'okay' to her standards, as she knows high quality is hard to achieve unless it's herself.
Impatient: Chrys has a tendency to lose her patience often with the people around her. What really sets her off is the speed and usefulness of you; if you are deemed to be going too slow or not thinking hard enough, despite her classy façade, it will drop quickly and she will not hesitate to be passive-aggressive by commentating on the way you're doing something. She definitely tries her best to be classy about it and go about it in a 'polite' way, but it will sometimes not work based on the severity of impatience she's feeling at the moment.
Insecure: She secretly feels the need to constantly assert her dominance just to prove that she can handle things. She absolutely, 100% stresses out over everything that doesn't look perfect enough and makes her look like she doesn't know what she's doing. Due to her upbringing, she gets anxiety and up in arms about anything that doesn't look right or is even the tiniest bit off course.
History:
TLDR;
Chrysalis grew up in Paradise and had a very demanding pair of parents in a moderate sized family that pressured her to be just like them, successful. Her childhood was completely consumed by the drive to appease to her parents and make them happy, resulting in her childhood not being as fun and carefree as many other kids around her had opposite experiences. She became very insecure of herself. It spilled into her school environment, where she took out her anger, frustration, and sadness due to her being unable to voice her emotions to her parents and felt like she HAD to please everyone around her so everyone can be happy. She couldn't be her own person and lost herself as she was always busy with schoolwork and was unable to have fun without criticism from her parents. It wasn't until she became a teenager that she started to not want her parents approval and instead, wanted to do things for herself. Due to the way she was raised, she always aimed to do better than most people around her and impress herself until she was happy. Academics were a breeze for her, as she was already planning out her future and did anything she could to get to this ideal life she wanted to live. She decided to follow in her parents' footsteps despite everything since she was best fit for it. She wanted to prove herself that she can achieve things without seeking anyone's approval. Chrys then went to become a CEO of a jewelry company and has been successful ever since.
Chrysalis was born into a middle-class demon family in Paradise that was high maintenance, fast-paced, and intense. She at first, was the youngest child, as her older brother was off in the illegal business. Her parents were both involved with their entrepreneurial business that involved a lot of focus and energy, even if it means sacrificing their personal enjoyment. Then her younger sister was born, being immediately expected to be a good example for her. In the first couple of years of her being in the family, she was a lot less like the person she is today. She was intimidated by her parents, as they expected a lot out of her as soon as she started going to school, causing her to always be anxious about getting approval from her parents. Her parents had a lot of expectations-- for a 10 year old. As expected, her parents didn't take settling for less as an option and wanted Chrys to achieve a lot. They often made sure Chrys was busy doing something productive, and most of the time it was something that Chrys would not personally enjoy.
This resulted in a lot of sleepless nights of studying, lack of interest in hobbies, and an insecure child. Chrys always felt like she wasn't doing enough even though she was already doing a lot of things and not enjoying her time as a child. Unfortunately, that kind of thinking translated to school, where she felt the need to impress everyone around her and to convince herself that she can handle everything around her. Of course this caused a lot of problems in school and she began to lash out at students that messed with her and disrupted her learning in any shape or form-- she just wanted to make her parents happy and nothing was going to get in the way of it. But the lashing out was getting out of hand and her parents often scolded her for acting out at school for no reason whatsoever. As a child, her emotions ran wild because she had no way to healthily express her feelings so she resorted to handling this on her own. As the school years lasted, she considerably got better by telling herself everyday that her parents do not define her identity and that she's doing all she can in her power as a kid.
As a teenager, Chrys was... considerably better. She began to make some more friends than she did as a child. However, she didn't let her parents' disapproval affect her anymore.. In fact, she began to shove her sensitiveness to the side and refused to let herself be in that position ever again, forcing herself to take on this 'tough' persona that appeared to intimidate her fellow classmates. The best of the best eventually absorbed into her mentality as she went to take on as much as she could in order to prove herself throughout her adolescence, like already aiming to attend one of the best colleges in Paradise once she graduates and be part of student council in order to make a change to the school. She eventually did achieve all of those things all at the same time while juggling classes. After seeing her parents become successful with their own business, she decided to go for a double major in business and communications in the second best college in Paradise.
After graduating college, she immediately got a job at Briggs Tower, as she had been so focused on her own thing. She had to become a team player, in order to be able to impress her boss to even be considered for promotions. As she worked there and began devoting herself to climbing the ranks in this job, on a business trip outside of Paradise, she was then introduced to a gang named Genesis. Its purpose was to have humans and demons remain combined together on earth, a direct opposite to another gang that went by the name of Exodus. After learning about this, she secretly got involved with the Genesis gang and promptly joined on the basis that she liked the idea of living along with humans and she's been figuring out her identity after separating herself from her parents as much as possible. Years later, she became one of the many CEOs in the tower and has been maintaining power and control ever since.
