Acedia

Koneko Natsumi, better known as Acedia, is a player of Evoked Legends Online.

Appearance
Koneko wears a dark orange, skin-tight bodysuit under a brown aviator-style jacket with the sleeves folded up to just above her elbows. She also wears a set of silver, cat-themed goggles that feature orange lenses; a thigh-holster on both legs for her dual Magpul PDR-C; a set of grey boots; some brown gloves; and a set of armored gauntlets over her forearms in a white color that fades into a silver. She keeps her two custom BSRB-17s and FN SCAR-L in two briefcases; one case holds the two BRSB-17s while the other holds her SCAR. She keeps her white hair in a bob, with two long bangs going past her shoulders and several shorter bangs over her forehead.

Personality
Koneko is a rather lazy girl, usually avoiding schoolwork and such or procrastinating intensely. She also absolutely adores kittens, and can be manipulated into doing work if cats are promised as a reward of some kind. When she is working, Koneko works diligently and thoroughly. She's easily distracted, so be weary of this. When around boys, she's either super shy or completely emotionless; it depends on what kind of boys she's around.

In spite of this lazy exterior, Koneko proves to be a compassionate girl with an indomitable will. It's hard to get Koneko to break under pressure, and torturing her would only result in rebellion. As mentioned earlier, she is a hard worker who takes her job seriously once she's started. If she wants to achieve a goal, Koneko will work for it and obtain it with maximum effort. Her love of cats also lead her to develop a habit of making cat noises, such as randomly saying "nya" or purring every now and then when around close friends.

Background
Koneko grew up without any major problems. She did tend to be lazy, so her grades would fluctuate from good to bad; they went down if she was being lazy, but her parents would tell her to fix them as soon as she possibly could. As a means of escaping the pressures of the educational system, Koneko dived into the internet and considered it her second home. Many internet friends were made, and Koneko enjoyed being behind a computer screen. When Evoked Legends Online was released, Koneko begged her parents to buy her a copy and all the necessary equipment to play it. Her parents agreed on the condition that Koneko was to get perfect scores on her next five tests. With this goal in mind, Koneko studied for hours, and fulfilled her side of the bargain. Keeping their promise, Koneko's parents bought ELO and the ApexGear for Koneko. Overjoyed and excited, Koneko immediately dived into the game and chose Beastial in the hopes that she would be a cat beastial. Fortunately, she got what she wanted and was given a cat beastial avatar. She spent quite some time training in firearms and such, and was eventually approached by a woman named Phoenix. Phoenix claimed that she was putting together an elite team, and Koneko would be able to learn from her fellow squad members should she join. The thought of learning from an elite team lured Koneko into the Sin Squadron, now operating under her call-sign/epithet "Acedia."

Abilities
Weapon-wise, Acedia wields assault rifles and SMGs. Her custom BRSB-17 rifle "Nekomata" features an ACOG sight, a suppressor, and extendable/collapsible stock; it is also optimized for firing 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition infused with high amounts of palladium, as well as anti-angel ammo and pointed wood bullets. On the other hand, Acedia's "Bakeneko" BRSB-17 rifle uses a red-dot sight, another suppressor, and an underbarrel grenade-launching attachment that uses similar tech to the BRSB-series Arcane Energy weapons; just like its twin "sister" rifle, Bakeneko fires 5.56x45mm NATO ammo infused with high traces of palladium, but is also optimized for anti-demon ammo and silver bullets. Should either of her BRSB-17s be inaccessible, Acedia switches to using an FN SCAR-L rifle with a red-dot sight and a normal underbarrel grenade launcher attachment. For sidearms, Acedia dual-wields a set of Magpul PDR-C compact assault rifles with red-dot sights and 30-round mags firing 5.56x45mm NATO ammo on both PDR-Cs.

Being a Cat Beastial, Acedia has additional feline abilities, such as natural night vision, naturally-enhanced speed, enhanced jumping height, and more. However, being a cat, Acedia is prone to the weaknesses of a cat. High-pitched noises can easily disable Acedia temporarily if played for a long enough time, and all that. Her cat tail is also sensitive, so be careful around that. If pet, Acedia will respond by either purring, growling, or biting and growling; it depends on who pets her. For some odd reason, Acedia will also make occasional cat noises, and often says "nya" when casually conversing with friends and allies.
