- Name: Remilia Arling
- Alias: The Quantum Hacker (by me), Remily (by her father), Remie (by her friends), Rewrite (her online username)
- Gender: Female
- Age: 24
- Birthday: 15th of June
- Race: Human
- Alignment: Lawful Neutral
- Affiliation: N/A
- Height: 162cm
- Weight: 51kg
Personality:
With her father being a police officer, Remilia has always felt it was her duty to protect others. In school, she always stood up to bullies. her small stature did not deter them, however. Instead, it made them target her which then prompted her father to teach her how to defend herself and landed her in the directors office several times. Furthermore, Remilia was quite studious and had good grades until she was 16 and her father was left paralyzed from the waste down. Her grades dropped as she was forced to take care of him. But it wasn't all bad, her desire to help others was strengthened now that her father couldn't do his job.
Still, taking care of someone is tiring and with her declining grades, those around her started asking her if she was okay. This became annoying after a while so she started spending even less time outside so she could study more and she put on a mask of stoicism to hide how tired she was. The mask eventually became her true face and stayed that way until today. Still, those close to her can see that she still cares and some might even see her old face if they look long and hard enough. The most obvious sign of her old attitude still being present is the fact that she became a vigilante after making the quantum computer.
Appearance:
Remilia has a short stature and lacks in curves, a fact she's aware of, but not overly concerned with. She makes up for her flatness by having beautiful long, silky black hair and striking purple eyes. She loves wearing skirts and her casual outfit looks quite a bit like a Japanese school uniform consisting of a black skirt with white stripes, a beige blouse and a red bow and long black socks. If she's expecting trouble, her outfit consists of a purple skirt and white shirt and even longer black socks. When she's going out Friday night, she likes wearing elegant black dresses. Finally, Remilia has poor eyesight and usually wears contacts but she might wear glasses on occasion.
Powers and Abilities:
Reality Hacking:
Just as the name says, Remilia can hack reality and change it however she wishes. While this sounds extremely powerful in theory, it is less useful in practice. To make any change to reality greater then creating something the size of a dog house, Remilia would have to spend a whole day writing the code. Even creating a wooden spoon takes a whole minute, making it less practical then just getting up and taking a spoon from the drawer. Furthermore, to use her power Remilia needs a quantum computer and she is a completely normal human without it. While she has no way around the latter problem, she did find a way to get around the former and that is...
Quantum Programs:
Preemptively prepared hacks used to modify reality quickly during combat. Remilia has sorted her programs into the following folders: Viruses, Firewalls and Codes. All programs have a 10 second cooldown before they can be used again.
Viruses - Programs for disruption phenomenon i.e. "debuffs", used to bring opponents down to Remilia's level. They do not stack.
- Spambot - Slows down the target of this program by a third of their maximum speed.
- Worm - Weakens the target by a third of their maximum strength
Firewalls - Programs for protection, be it physical or magical.
- Set_Wall - Creates a brick wall out of nowhere. It's probably the slowed program available since the length, height and thickness have to be specified, but it's pretty useful for creating cover.
- Change_Depth - Creates a bubble of altered reality where everything is longer or deeper then it seems on the outside. Best used as a defense mechanism in long hallways.
Codes - Programs for creation of physical objects, mostly weapons. In an attempt to improve her combat capabilities after Sold, Remilia copied and stored some HW weapons from Inazuma.
- Get_Gun - Summons a Beretta Px4 Storm and a spare magazine.
- Get_ShotGun - Summons a Benelli M4 Combat shotgun and a spare magazine.
- Get_SubGun - Summons an FN P90 submachine gun and a spare magazine.
- Get_Knife - Summons a Chaos Double Edge combat knife.
- Get_Spray - Summons pepper spray.
- Get_Tazer - Summons a Tazer X3.
- Get_Grnd - Summons a fragmentation grenade.
- Get_FshGrnd - Summons a flash grenade.
- Get_StnMn6 - Summons a large mine that, once primed, releases 5 smaller mines some distance around it. When stepped on, those mines release electrified wire that coils around the victim and stuns them.
M programs - Programs that came with the Musashi folder. One acts like a code, two are buffs used in conjunction with specific viruses.
- The Rabbit - Copies the speed taken by Spambot and adds it to the administrator, further lowering the speed difference between Remilia and her opponent.
- Storm Worm - Copies the strength taken by Worm and adds it to the administrator, further lower the strength difference between Remilia and her opponent.
- Get_Shield - Hardens the quantum computer and adds a wider brim to it, turning it onto an effective shield but making it more difficult to use as a computer.
Close Quarter Combat and Marksmenship: Remilia is skilled enough to shoot a thrown bottle in mid-air and is capable of beating a grown man, probably even two, in a straight up fight. Her knowledge and skill originated from training that her police officir father provided as well as some training that she has done on her own after her father decided that she already knew enough to protect herself. With money of an undetermined origin and a handy dictionary, as well as some knowledge of Japanese from anime, she enrolled into Inazuma to improve her skills.
Remilia's combat prowess increased in Inazuma, making her a fearsome warrior in her own right. There she developed what she considers her signature (albeit situational) move, the gun strip. Field stripping a gun pointed at her before it can be fired for an easier non-lethal takedown.
Ki Control: During her Inazuma traning, Remilia learned how to control her ki. This increases her speed, strength, reactions, and durability. However, due the how late in her life she started training her ki, she still struggles to maintain it for long periods of time.
Computer Hacking:Remilia is kind of a newbie when it comes to hacking however her she is getting better at an astonishing pace do to being a Shindo of programming, despite not being aware of that herself. It serves mostly as a way of practicing quantum hacking without messing up reality since the two types of hacking are fairly similar.
Of course, hacking is also a useful skill for a vigilante since it makes information gathering easier. Her skills started improving even faster after she accidentally found a small group of hackers online who were actually good at this stuff and were willing to help her out. Plus, she had some previous experience since the way she unlocked her power was by modding games although she doesn't do that anymore since vigilanteing takes up way too much of her time.
Equipment:
Quantum Computer - A shield like object that Remilia places on her left arm when she wants to use it. After discovering her power, she created the Quantum Computer by combining a smartphone, an old Nokia and a mini keyboard. Then she attached some painted metal and wood to make it look like a cool shield.
Program folder - A small purple gem on the back of Remilia's left hand. It is an extension of the quantum computer and is used to store the programs Remilia prepares. It is actually a USB stick with a gem glued to it. After copying the programs to the Musashi folder, she started carrying the original only as a backup. It lacks the M programs.
Musashi folder - A silver USB shaped like a diamond with the Musashi crest in gold given to Remilia by Mai Musashi. It came preloaded with some programs and Remilia transfered the rest so she could use it as her main folder.
Expandable baton - She carries it everywhere just in case she needs a (non-lethal) weapon and has no access to the Quantum Computer.
NPCs:
None yet.
Relationships:
She met and worked with Wendigo Wilson at one point, but their cooperation did not end in the best way which is partially her fault. It is unknown how they will react to each other next time they meet.
During a Halloween party she was invited to by a strange hidden worlder, Remilia met Ash the hate doll. Remilia isn't really aware of what Ash is, but she was won over by Ash's adoration of vigilantes. Remilia can see Ash as a friend and an ally, as they demonstrated when they cooperated for a stakeout-turned-raid of a yakuza gambling den disguised as a bar.
While Remilia officially met Jun during the yakuza bar raid they didn't really interact until the auction where Remilia joined the Musashi in retrieving a demon. After the events in Sold, her feelings towards Jun were overall positive. Jun resisted the thief demon when it wanted to steal from Remilia. She also showed far more respect when it was all over than some other people... If they ever meet again, Remilia will likely be friendly toward the bounty hunter.
Unlike Jun, Mai is definitely not in Remilia's good graces. They started off on the right foot with Mai giving Remilia the M folder, but during the fight against the demon, Mai let her emotions get the better of her. While Jun resisted the foreign influence of the demon, Mai's emotions, her fit of rage, led to her breaking Remilia's arm. Not being used to an occurrence like that as most hidden worlders probably are, Remilia finds herself unable to forgive Mai for that, especially after the very insincere apology she offered only at the behest of Akane.
Speaking of whom, Remilia's feelings towards Akane are slightly positive. The Musashi seems like a decent person and she did make her sister apologize for breaking her arm, she also avoided harming Jun, however, her personal interactions with Remilia herself didn't leave much of a positive or a negative impression. Remilia wouldn't mind working with Akane again, as long as Mai is not part of their mission.
During the same auction, Remilia faced Mona the thief. Remilia objects to Mona's way of life and will keep a watchful eye on her, possibly even try to arrest her, if they meet again, but she doesn't see Mona as someone who deserves to die which is why she saved her from drowning in the auction place's pool.
During the yakuza bar raid, Remilia also met Katsuo. Much like Jun during that time, she didn't interact much with him and has no particular feelings towards him.
