The one big kicker with Aestivalis is that she isn't one human, but rather two humans that have been fused together. Therefore, half of one side of her body belongs to Collet and the other half belongs to Fate. Through a natural miracle, the two have almost identical DNA structure, despite having several obvious difference in appearance. First of all would be their difference in hair. The other being their eye colour. They were lucky in that their frame, body shape, bone structure and pretty much all of their internal parts were close to being the same.
A more detailed examination would show that Collet is physically weaker by a large degree than Fate, though her magical flow paths, her prowess and abilities easily outstrip that of Fate when they were two separate people. The whole premise for the experiment was to create a perfect being. That said, as the left side of Aestivalis is Collet, her physical ability, although bolstered, is still less than that of her right and vise versa with magic.
Collet's side is somewhat more soft, with a slightly less defined muscle structure than her right, whilst Fate's side has a less obvious mana glow when they do magic. There is no signs of the operation besides the hair, eye colour and eye shape. People may feel that her face doesn't seem quite symmetrical, that each side seem natural, yet distinctly different. While both Collet and Fate are pretty darn similar, face wise pre-operation, there are still certain aspects of their face that differ, such as Fate having sharper features like the eyes and slightly higher cheekbone.
Personality:
Again, Aestivalis is basically two people merged into one. Its brain, is somewhat bigger than that of a normal person, has full capacity of two people. This also meant that BOTH personality from Collet and Fate is present. As a result, they can converse with each other as if two people in the same room, aware of what the other is doing and able to interrupt to a large degree of the other's action. Again, Collet has more control over her left side and vice versa for the right should they try to interrupt each other. From the outside, the two appear to always bicker with each other, though it is more Collet being the stringent parent and Fate being the delinquent child or that of an old married couple
Collet: Collet is a saint. Almost quite literally as stated by her alias and nickname "Living Saint Azureus". She is alike an angel descending from heaven. The healing wind for the sick and the sword and shield for the weak and needy. A scraped knee while playing tag? No problem. A soldier bleeding out with his guts hanging on the battlefield? Of course she'll be there. Bandits attacking an innocent caravan? She'll greet them with a serenade of destructive magic (which she'd more likely than not, go and help them afterwards). She is the epitome of justice, righteousness, compassion and the way of the light. Collet's compass of justice is damn close to 90% accurate in that with whatever little information she can gather, she can usually deduct correctly what happened and mete out due punishment. The remaining 10% is because she is human regardless. She would not actively hunt down those that trick her but should their path cross again, Collet would give chase till she catches or lose them. Matching her sense of justice, Collet is caring and strict like a parent with acting proper and what not, though she is innocent.
Fate: The polar opposite of Collet. Fate is one that lives by the day and live life in the fast lane. While not inherently evil, she is no where even remotely close to her body co-habitant. Chaotic Neutral is the best description for Fate. As fickle as the weather, while Collet is relatively predictable, interacting with fate is like playing a cat and mouse game, not knowing what she is thinking nor what she will do. She places herself as priority due to her upbringing and with the recent events, that now includes Collet's well being. For some reason, Fate has developed a romantic, loving and mothering attraction with Collet, bordering being possessive. Whether she helps a dying person or leave them to their fate is really dependent on her mood. Also unlike her religious friend, she is not a virgin (though the nether regions are taken from Collet) and she is relatively feisty and rather amorous individual with a penchant for beautiful girls, preferably virgins. For those that wronged her enough, Fate will carry a grudge and if she finds out that they are within nearby vicinity, may seek them out for revenge. Fate is equally as smart as Collet, except in the street smart and survivability sense, which also makes her a good judge of character. Collet is able to make proper judgement on incidents, but her ability to discern people's personality is lacking. This is where Fate has to cover for Collet. Being opposite of Collet, Fate is less so innocent and strict, being rather easy going, carefree and a bit of a kid, being rather risque with her co-habitant.
First Impression:
Aestivalis can get pretty much get anyone to do a double take on her, mostly due to the fact that her hair is of two different colour, her asymmetrical clothing and the subtle distinct irregularity with her face. Upon conversing or interacting with Aestivalis for the first time, most people will be somewhat concerned or taken back from her two minds. They are so distinct and lifelike that most people would somewhat believe them if they told them their situation. In certain cases, they would find their contrasting personality acts funny and humourous.
Distinguishing Marks:
Collet: Collet has zero body art that she has applied by her own accord for decoration. The only thing she has is a single, large tattoo of the Crimean Cross that is emblazoned from the base of her neck down to between her shoulder blades and spans to the two bones. On her left ear, Collet wears a cross earring and a Crimean Cross necklace.
History: Unlike Fate, this tattoo occurred miraculously via scarring. During her youth, her back experienced extreme pain for an entire night suddenly as if she felt knives carving her back. It was only when dawn came when the other sisters came to investigate as to why she was late to morning rituals did they find her covered in blood and found the cross tattoo on her back. Rather than appearing grisly fresh wounds, upon cleaning, the tattoo was clean, neat and of dark blood red. Seeing it as a miracle, it further spurred Collet to follow in God's footsteps and carry the burden for the people.
Fate: For Fate, she had a plethora of distinguishing marks, most done on a whim. Most prominent are her exotic body tattoos. When their body fused, most of her inking disappeared except for some rather large ones. The first is her leg one on her right leg which reaches mid shin length. The next is her right arm. The hand has a Shahanian style tattoo covering her backhand, her wrist and her forearm. On the underside of her forearm, she has another Shahanian Tattoo that reaches to her elbow crux. On her biceps the Shahanian Bara (flower) is emblazoned across the front of her arm and to her embarrassment and slight disgust, three prominent Arwenian scriptures are tattooed on her. One at the shoulder joint above the Bara, the second ringing the shoulder join scripture and the last is behind both the first and second. Her last tattoo invades onto Collet's side and covers the right shoulder and lower back. The flower on the back is much smaller and is set very low set on the body like a tramp stamp. This was lucky as it is just clear of Collet's stigma. The stigma is very big, covering most of the shoulder blades and reaches just below the neck and down to her lower back.
Fate is also a heavy patron of jewellery. For just the right ear, she has a heavy set golden earring that dangles past her jawline, while bracketing it on the same ear are a pair of earring with more Arwenian scripts. On her hand. she wears a hand flower bracelet, an anklet on her right ankle and a gold coin necklace piece, to Collet's chagrin as it gets in the way of her cross.
Religion/Spiritual Views:
Collet: Collet is a prominent member of the Holy Crimean Church, believing in the one and True God. During its earlier phases, this belief led it into constant conflict with other Religions, with the Crimean Church coming out on top ultimately and leading it to becoming one of the world's dominant religion. However, conflict with the followers of the Arwessia, another major Religion, for over several centuries led the two into a stalemate. Through a religious renaissance, the Crimean Church ideals softened, having mutual respect for the strength of the Arwessians. Whilst still believing that their's is the True God, they have mutual respect and truce with each other, allowing scholars to travel between religious lands in which they share. Their style is more Western, with looming stone structures of straight spires and lines and dominates the entire Northern Europa area and the top fifth of Khavar Mashirq.
Fate: Whilst not a fervent believer, Fate is brought up an Arwessian. Being an Arwessian is much more than someone being a follower of the Crimean Church, as it influences heavily on the lifestyle and culture of the people. Similar to the Crimean Church in that it believes it's God is the True God, the Arwessians of old waged war incessantly with the Crimean Church and only through the Enlightment Age, did it also progress through a renaissance period in which a truce was established. The Arwessians are more into the religion as its law is the law of the land. Due to having almost 100% of the people in the area being followers, prayers, festivals and laws are more than just religion, but how they live. Arwessian style is more exotic, with rising domes, mosiacs and tiles, plastered walls and curves, with a more Middle Eastern taste, contrasting heavily with the more North Western Crimeans. It dominates the rest of Khavar Mashirq and the top two third of the Arepher region. However, unlike Europa, Khavar Mashirq and Arepher is much more arid and less hospitable.
Political Affiliation:
Both Fate and Collet have rather unique relation with politics.
Collet: The Crimean Church holds significant power in the Europa continent. All countries are, to some extent, manipulated or can be by the Church. As a result, those of high position in the Church are powerful in their own rights. In essence, Europa is itself a theocracy in which each country are like its "provinces" or "states" and ultimately can be controlled by the Church. As for Collet's affiliation, she is a high member within this theocracy. Although she herself does not believe that the Church should influence and play politics with each country like a ruler, it does allow a large degree of freedom and advantages for her to help those in need and she is one of the minority that shares this viewpoint. Her position as a Preceptor Canoness of the ancient and esteemed Order of the Holy See puts her on the same level as the 200 Cardinals, right below the Senior Cardinals and the Papal. With her ridiculously high position within the Church, her fame and her devotion to her religion, Collet is by default affiliated with Theocracy.
Fate: On the opposite end of the spectrum, Fate is not that religious. She follows traditions as a life style, though she has no qualms in breaking laws. Whilst being born from one of the Elder of Aquincum, she was wild and free, disliking the heavy restrictions and rules placed on her. As a result, Fate has no political affiliation. Her tattoos were inscribed during the time in which she was devoted to her religion. However, she saw many failings in some of its teachings as preached by isolationists and extremists that were in abundant. Fate also could not stand the inequality with females and eventually, abandoned her faith in it.
Style:
Collet: As a Priestess, a member of the Clergy and an adventurer/ traveler, Collet put practicality and her religion above all. Her preferred colour is that of white, yellow and blue. Fabric differs from circumstances, where when traveling, thicker and warmer material such as wool to fend off the weather. All in all, her style is proper and neat, reflective of her pure self, without anything flashy.
Fate: Like many other aspect, Fate is the complete opposite of Collet. Indulging in anything fine, she prefers silk, cashmere, anything expensive and comfortable and usually in fantastic and exotic colours such as orange, red, gold and the like. Practicality plays a lesser role for her style and its more about appearance. She wants people to ogle and as a result, she also wears a ridiculous amount of accessories and dress rather skimpily.
Attire: All of Collet's insignia/ brooches/ badges are the Crimean Cross as a base, but is the Order of the Holy See variant, distinctly stating the order she is from
Casual - The casual wear they have are chosen purely based on situation. In Europa, it would obviously be more beneficial to wear Collet's uniform and vice versa in Khavar Mashirq or Arepher. However, it is rather hard for Fate to convince Collet to wear her outfit.
Collet #2 #3: As a nun, Collet has a uniform for her casual wear. It consist of two layers of clothing which covers most of her body. Its appearance is a good deal more ornate, detailed and fancy than the regular uniform, mostly due to her position within the Church.
First and foremost, she wears a torso tight white dress at the bottom. It is in a Victorian fashion where it is form fitting at the torso. It hugs her figure until the waist, where it then flares out loosely in a dress down to just above her ankles. At the base of the dress, it has highly intricate laced patterns with blue outline (refer to #2). It is relatively plain at her torso besides hugging her figure. At the shoulders, they puff up a bit, but return to hugging her arm until halfway down her forearm, where they flare out a bit. Like the bottom of the dress, the edge of her sleeves have lace patterns. The dress goes up half her neck, whilst on top, she has a lace neck ruff. On top of her torso is a leather corset which acts as a form of armour as well as clothing.
On top of this dress, she has her main coat. Long and flowing, it is tailored to be also form fitting, rather than straight. It therefore angles in at the waist. Similarly white, the edges of collars and edged are lined with blue hemming. The back has a short slit that runs from the base of the coat up to half of her thigh, allowing for easy leg movement. At the front, there are two slits that can be buttoned up at each leg. Collet has them unbuttoned to just below her waist. Whilst there are buttons on both sides up to the top, the coat is usually opened from the left side. The sleeves are similar to her inner dress, in which it is slightly puffy at the shoulder, hugs her arm and flares up after the forearm. It's cuffs are folded back and are lined with a fair amount of cuff links in the shape of holy ornaments (refer to #3). At each bicep, she has a metal insignia of her Church secured onto the sleeves. Like a mantle over her shoulder and around her neck, she has a white cloth that covers her collarbones and her neck, standing up stiff up to her jaw line. Like her cuffs, the collar is also lined with ornaments (refer to #3) and across her throat to keep it closed, Collet has a metal band that keeps it in place. She has a Crimean cross that hangs from one link from the throat band. At her upper torso, Collet wears a leather brace (refer to #3) which wraps under her bust, goes over her shoulder and around her back. Hanging from the back on a central loop is a mass of silver chains that have silver ornaments hanging from the end. It is on top of this coat that she wears her Crimean Cross, which reaches just below her bust. On her chest is a platinum brooch of the emblem of the Order of the Holy See.
Collet's habit covers her head partially. Along both sides of the front, three ornaments are pinned along the edges while it is held down to the side veils with a single church insignia on each side (refer to #3). The veil are rather long and reaches down pass her shoulder, ending at the small of her back. Collet dons white gloves with the basic red Crimean Cross on the top. For her legs, she wears a pair of white lace stockings with garter, in which she wears a white, heeled leather boots that is ornately plated at the Achilles, the ankles, the shin and the toes.
Fate #2 #3: In steep contrast to Collet, Fate wears extremely revealing clothes. When Collet relents to wearing Fate's outfit, she does not hold back with her appearance. The basic outfit consist of a golden spangled bikini with black strings. For her feet, she dons a pair of red sandals. On top, she has a near transparent silk shawl draped across her shoulder and her back, lined with metallic bangles on one side. Her pants are made of the same transparent material and are baggy and loose as to allow better ventilation from the area's hot weather. Around her waist, Fate wears a type of sarong that wraps behind her waist and her sides, held up by an expensive golden belt with red jewel in the middle (refer to #2). All along the edges are golden tassels. A long length of blue silk cloth hangs from a loop behind her waist on her belt, which has two large golden tassels at the end.
Along with what she already wears, her jewelry would be for both ears/ hand/ foot and Fate would also wear several neck hoops that cover half her neck, gold hoops on her wrist and ankle as well as an expensive golden necklace with a large red jewel in the center. Hanging from her waist belt is a heavily decorated scimitar and for her head, a diamond forehead necklace. On both index, ring and pinkie, she has a different ring on it made from gold, silver or platinum. Her toes are also similar in that her second, fourth and last toe also have rings. On her ankles, she wear ankle bracelets that have silver spangles.
Disguise -
Both have very peculiar clothing so if they are pursued, they can be very easily spotted in a crowd. Depending on whereabouts they are on in the continent, they have different disguises.
In Europa, Collet usually doesn't need to hide since she holds power there. However, should the situation calls for it, her "go to" clothing is rather masculine. She would wear a white, woven medieval tunic with a leather outer wear on top. She would have a belt across her waist in which she hangs a short sword. On her legs, she would wear black leggings and high leather boots. Of course, with her hair being the way it is, she would have to wear a brown hood.
In Khavar Mashirq and Arepher, they would go with Fate's choice. It is a good deal easier to disguise due to the area's baggier style. She can, obviously, wear a Hijab with a long overdress like a burqa or just cover her face if need be. This lets her disguise herself very quickly and blend in with other females. That or she can dress up as a male, wearing a white thawb with a white sirwal underneath and a pair of brown sandals. On her head, she can then wear a gray and white keffiyeh to cover her hair. Should she want to take a step further, they can also wear a dark brown bisht cloak.
Apparatus A -
For traveling in general, Collet and Fate had to come to some form of compromise for their daily attire. On the inside, she wears a white suit shirt. Both sides have the sleeves rolled above the elbow, but the buttons done bar three from the top. It is also of material that would reveal what was underneath should it be of noticeable colour. In Fate's case, she wears her spangled bikini. It therefore shows through clearly on the right side. On her left foot, Collet retains a single purple stocking and garter whereas her right side is bare. Fate has also opted for a pair of heels. This is not to Collet's liking, but since it is impossible to walk with different footwear on each foot and Fate not budging an inch, Aestivalis wears a pair of low heels with ankle bracelets on both legs whilst on top is a short skirt (black base colour with dark gray line pattern) that reaches above the knee.
Collet believes that the outfit is much too indecent for her taste. Therefore, she went and procured a half waist apron and a half coat. The half apron is a ankle length leather skirt that covers close to the entire left leg and most of the front and back, leaving only the left leg and waist uncovered. That side is Fate's, so Collet is unable to do anything about it. The apron is held on by a belt across the waist and another belt that runs from the front left side at the waist, over her chest and right shoulder before coming back down to the back left side. This holds in securely in place, even during vigorous movements.
The half coat is another clothing with similar intention. It is a loose left sleeve that covers down most of her hand and arm, and covers her left torso. It is tailored so it angles in at the waist. It reaches past her waist where it meets the apron. Obviously, as is, it wouldn't hold in place. The half coat has white lines and pieces at the front shoulder as well as on top of the collar, while it has a Crimean Cross insignia secured onto the front of the left. At chest level, the coat has a belt that goes from the front around the right side and connected to the back, interlacing with the belt for the apron, clipped in place. From the epaulette strap, there is a belt comes down the front and back and clips on to where the other two belt meets, holding said half coat in place.
To top it off, if really need be, Collet has an overcloak on top of everything that has a cowl. The cowl that has a deep front at the top which can help her cover her face. It is black in colour and has this pattern in white. It is kept closed at the collar via a chain and only really cover a small portion of her collar. Similar to the half coat, it is rather militaristic and uniform in style, but simplistic, being a dark navy blue and white. A stitched Order of the Holy See emblem is on the left of the left while there is a modest sized Crimean Cross on the back. Fate isn't bothered by Collet's display of her Church, but should they need to, the coat is reversible and sports a plain lighter navy blue colour to it.
Weapons:
Both sides have their own respective weapons that each prefer.
Collet:
Azalia #2 #3:
A long staff about 1.8 meters in length. It is a magnificent staff made of Meorite metal, giving it high strength and blemish proof. Its body is constructed with black Meorite, giving it a shiny, polished appearance. On its body, near the top, there are inscriptions set into the body made from charged Meorite as well as symbols of the Church and her Order set in closer to the bottom. The end section of the shaft is made of charged Meorite, as is the top prongs. The end is capped off with a large magical gem called Sorium, which is known for their magical capabilities. Added that with the charged Meorite's own magical properties, it helps Collet with her magic casting. The four prongs surround the more concentrated Sorium gem at the top end, with engravings carved straight through the metal.
Azalia is Collet's main weapon. It is one of the most sacred item of the Church. As a holy item, it also buffs up healing and support magic.
While she is capable of casting without it, by using Azalia, she can conjure faster and more effectively. As well as being a magic conductor, Collet also uses Azalia as a physical weapon. Rather weighty and strong, Collet uses it as a blunt force weapon, capable of crushing bones with massive blows. Another interesting feature of the staff is that it chooses its wielder. Having the ability to gauge one's spirit, it chooses those that it feels most suitable. As a result of this, it led to a massive controversy during the time Collet obtained it.
Hellfire:
A rather odd name, given her disposition and her affiliation. Hellfire, despite its name, is another Blessed item. The Order said it was a lower tier item in comparison to Azalia, but Collet couldn't help but feel that there is something off about it and that the Order was not telling her something. Regardless, Hellfire is a straight, single sided curved sword made also from Meorite. It's hilt, hand guard and scabbard is extremely intricate, designed with a dragon motif. The rain guard resembles a dragon wrapping around the blade where it then meets a standing dragon. Its head, feet and the out spread wings act as the hand guard whilst the hilt is the tail, wrapping around downwards with the tip meeting the legs. The scabbard has a winged dragon at the end, wrapping around the wood whilst the there are similar dragons at the middle and at the end.
Swords are not Collet's favourite weapon. They cause outright lethal wounds when used and is much harder to hold back with than her staff. Collet has yet to find any interesting properties with the sword itself and is confused by it being in her possession. It was a nice sword indeed, but that was all. When she was presented it, Collet was ordered to keep it in her possession at all times, that it can be used as a symbol for the Church. It confused Collet because the sword did not resemble a cross. For her, if she was to carry any sword, she would have preferred the cruciform arming sword. When she questioned it, giving reasons such as the lethality of it, the Order predicted even further and said that the blade has been blunted. It is still relatively sharp, but cut wounds would not be deep nor overly deadly. However, diligently, Collet carries Hellfire with her everywhere. The scabbard is secured behind her on her waist in a vertical configuration on the left side. Sicne she doesn't use it much, it isn't in a quick draw position. She is proficient in fencing, so Collet can use the sword with some degree of skill. She has used it before and like the elders have said, with its current edge, it isn't dangerous to a large degree. Nowadays, if it came to really needing to use it, Fate would take control of her arm due to her being more skillful in melee weaponry
Fate: Fate lacks the same magical capabilities as Collet. However, she is extremely talented and proficient with physical combat. Her weapons reflect that with both being short one handed weapon that require skill to dual wield efficiently
Hafala #1 #2:
Fate's main weapon is a falcata around 75 cm in length. Skillfully made, it is crafted for the sole purpose of killing with style. Its odd shape is used in its construction so that she can cut and slash like a sword, but maintain and distributes it's weight so that it has the ability to deliver a blow like an axe. Along the blade, the blacksmith engraved gold design plus scriptures on the metal, whilst the hilt is treated metal with gold design. Unlike Azalia or Hellfire, Hafala is made for pure physical attacks. There are no fancy enchantments or tricks to it besides its superior keen blade and craftsmanship. It is stored on the left side behind their waist, making a cross with Hellfire in a horizontal configuration with the hilt facing left for quicker draw.
Ihma:
Fate's second weapon is a curved dagger of 35 cm in length. Its make is very similar to Hafala since it is by the same blacksmith, giving it a keen edge as well as aesthetic beauty. Its cutting edge is so fine that it can cut bone when executed properly. While she wont be cutting off limbs in one go, it is possible when several strikes are performed. Golden designs and scriptures also run down the blade of the sword while its hilt is treated mahogany with a gold pommel. Fate can use it in reverse grip and for slitting throats or stabbing people. The point and blade is very sharp and the double edged tip at the end is designed to puncture chain mail. Once inside a chain link, the motion of the stab would shove the blade in and slice the link through. Ihma is hung on the side of her waist on her right side and can be used in conjunction with Hafala
Special Talents/Abilites:
Magic Infusion:
Blessed by Seraphim Ithuriel, Collet was given an excellent magical circuit in her body. When performing magic, her circuits light up as bright cyan lines along her body, face and limbs. The conduits allow Collet to cast magic with ease and proficiency on an incredibly large and complex scale. However, the surgery has marred Collet's circuitry. During the fusion surgery, the intention was to implant her entire right side circuit into Fate and graft Fate's superior muscles into Collet's left side. Unfortunately, the procedure didn't work out exactly as planned and while Fate's body accepted the implant, it didn't assimilate perfectly into her body. In actuality, Collet's effectiveness with magic dropped rather drastically due to the artifical implantation of half of her circuits into a foreign body. She was no longer able to reach her previous standards. Originally, Collet was one of the top Clerics in the world, with almost inexhaustible mana supply and perfect conduction of mana for instant casting of large scale, complex spells. Post surgery, her capabilties dropped down to that of a Journeyen's level. Her knowledge of her craft is still there, but conjuring them requires much more effort, time and mana than before. As a result of all this, the circuit glow is most prominant on Collet's side, with Fate's side being duller.
Power Graft:
Similarly to Magic Fusion, Fate's excellent muscle quality and structure were grafted and spliced into Collet's left side, hoping to boost her physical capabilities, just like how implanting Collet's magic circuits into Fate's right side in hopes of boosting her magical capabilities. Equally unfortunately, Collet's body didn't reject the graft and splicing, but it didn't exactly accept it unconditionally. Collet does have improved physical capabilities, but is still physically weaker than Fate.
Increased Cranial Power:
With two minds melded into one, Aestivalis, in essence, doubled her processing power. Already, Collet was quite intelligent prior to fusion and Fate was quite quick witted and sharp. They wouldn't have been chosen otherwise if they had inferior brains. When fused, Aestivalis basically had an increase in cranial capabilities, making her able to have the two concurrent personalities active and do much more such as being able to mutlitask much easier as well as solve even more complex issues and react faster. Of course, since Aestivalis' brain is not a natural occurance, heavy deliberate use of her mind causes mild pain to her head with prolonged use bringing more harsher levels. A short rest of a few minutes often fix that.
Strengths:
Physical and Magical capabilities:
As a fusion of two people of opposite specialty, Aestivalis has gained the prowess of both sides. Aestivalis is much more proficient and capable than a large majority of the human population, though she is nowhere near at Collet's original level. Aestivalis is also substantially much more capable, physically, than a large degree of the human population, yet not to the degree of Fate's original level. Of the entire operation, the brain splicing was the most successful part of it. Not only does the dual personality not interfere with either casting, chanting, fighting or rapid movements, Aestivalis is able to perform these tasks with almost no negative reprecussions or signal delay from her brain.
Cranial power:
Both girl's cranial capabilities were not lost either after the surgery. Collet retained all of her magical knowledge and Fate retained all her experiences and street know how. Even the more mundane things such as prayers of both religion, education and memories were not lost. Of course, with a connected brain, both personalities has access to each others memories, so there is no privacy what so ever. With an increased cranial size, Aestivalis is able to perform more tasks simultaneously, solve much more complex issues quicker and in general be much more observant and intelligent.
Weaknesses:
Magic power and physical coordination instablity:
The body part of the surgery was not as successful as the brain. Each side is stronger with their respective original speciality whilst the other falls behind slightly. Collet is more capable of channeling mana and casting magic whilst Fate's side has a slight issue with molding mana. This may result in slightly lopsided and more inefficient magic casting. The flip side is also the same, with Collet being weaker than Fate and slightly less capable of performing physical feats as easily as Fate can.
Cranial Protection:
Due to the larger size of her brain, Aestivalis is a bit more sensitive to head traumas. Whilst the surgeons grafted on the protective membranes from both brains for additional protection, the mere growth of severl mm in brain diameter effectively reduced the cushion zone of the cranial fluid by half. Therefore, cranial trauma is a bit more effective against Aestivalis than to normal humans. A knock to the head that wouldn't stun a person much would disorientate Aestivalis longer. The additional membrane grafts helps it hold in place more than a normal human, but physical restraints are more jerky and sudden than the cushioning of liquid.
Vitality :
Vitality is not Aestivalis' forte. One previously being a magc toting nun and the other a rogue thief, the two girl's were originally never inclined towards being in the front line or trading blows. In fact, both would much prefer to avoid confrontation if possible.

Bad Habits:
Fate is a trickster and a lech. She has a bad habit of playing tricks and harrassing Collet when she least expects it. This ranges from Fate poking Collet's side to all out groping Collet's chest when she least expects it, such as, during a conversation. To those that are unaccustomed to Aestivalis, this sudden action followed by Collet's reaction would be unsettling.
Job/Occupation:
Collet:
A member of the clergy for the Holy Crimean Church. More specifically, for The Order of the Holy See.
Past Occupations:
Freelancer:
Fate didn't have a set job after leaving her home. The most accurate description of what she did for a living was freelancing. Fate took on whatever job she fancied, from being a dancer, shop assistant, thief, treasure hunter, bounty hunter, mercenary, bodyguard and even a maid for a rich lady. She has done a wide range of jobs, though right now, she is stuck with Collet so freelancing isn't really an option now. The plus side is that Collet is quite wealthy and working for money is no longer an issue. However, Fate has to help assist Collet should she be required to do perform tasks or jobs she has taken upon herself.
Activities/Organizations:
Preceptor Canoness of The Order of the Holy See:
Direct subordinate to Superior Matron Canoness Annalyse, it can be said that Collet is one of the few powerful people across Europa and the known world. Even her fellow Canoness defer to her, not because she exceeds them in hierarchical power, but due to the fact that they believe she has been touched by the Gods through her stigma and her mana circuits and she is Annalyse's protege. It is the fact that she is all but officially recognised as the sucessor of Annalyse, and therefore the second most powerful person by potential, of the Order. Within her own authority, she is the head of one of the two convent that is situated in the The Order of the Holy See's main compound. The other is headed by Superior Matron Canoness Annalyse. Along with the two major convents are several smaller detachment convent within the compound. Outside of the Order's HQ, there are a slew of major convents of over a thousand as well as small detachment convent scattered across Europa and Arwessia, easily showing the size, influence and importance of the Order. Her original tasks included liasoning with the other Canoness, interacting and communicating along with Superior Matron Canoness Annalyse with other Crimean Church bodies, administration work and the like. However, many of these responsibility is performed by Collet's direct subordinates. Whilst she is quite capable of performing those tasks, Collet's unofficial main job is to maintain faith and morale of the convent and act as a shining beacon and example for all those that follow the Church and the Order. It is not a difficult task as Collet often fulfills this by merely doing what she always does, helping the weak and needy.

__________________________________________________ __________________________
Relationship Status:
Collet: Single due to religious reasons
Fate: Single with a worrisome interest in Collet
Relationship History:
Collet: As a member of a devout religious order, Collet does not partake in any form of romantic relationships. As a human, she is not immune to actual romantic feelings. However, self discipline, willpower and devotion meant that she consciously keeps these in check and reject all advances. Her devotion is just that strong. Therefore, it is expected that she has zero relationship history. She has relationships on a friendship level and even familial endearment, but that is all.
Fate: As much as she is flirty, coquettish and a tease, she is not amorous. True that she is also not a virgin, but it doesn't mean she went around the town. Her view on romance is that if she genuinely loves the person, then she would not shy away from showing it, including intercourse. This numbers her partner to one for males. Females on the other hand, would be countless. However, she IS a cock tease and will lead men on a merry chase with no intention of letting them take it any further.
The one boy she has been with was a childhood friend she had when she was young. She was of the more higher class and he was much more poorer. It didn't stop her from enjoying his company. Even when young, she was bisexual and she lost her virginity at 12, but through a series of unfortunate events perpetuated by her father, he had died and that tore the final rift between daughter and father. Fate had sworn that she would love no other man when she was 5 to him and she intended to keep her vow. Women were different, however and she has had countless bed partners right until her fusion. Since Collet refuses to give her any allowance, Fate has stayed rather celibate. Fate isn't complaining however, since she has set her eyes on Collet and has her literally in bed every night. Them sharing a body gives her limitless opportunities to harass, molest and tease the poor nun, which she has taken a shine to.
Family:
Collet: Collet is an orphan, which explains why she was brought up in a convent. She has no idea as to who her real parents or family are, so instead, she treats those in the convent as her family. The mother figure would be Mother Siesta who is the matron of St Martha's church she grew up in. While she was close to the other orphans that shared the church with her, Collet was particularly close to those that entered the Church. Brother John and Amuro, Sister Rimula, Lala and Agi would be what Collet considers siblings since they stayed with Mother Siesta in St Martha until she was taken to the main HQ of her Order. Despite being taken early after her stigma appeared, Collet has kept in close contact with the small Church and with her more powerful position, Collet guiltily used her power to ensure that St Martha Church was taken care of behind the scene.
While not exactly family, Superior Matron Canoness, Sister Annalyse, the current head nun for The Order of the Holy See, was the one that took Collet into the Order and acted as her guardian and teacher/mentor. There has always been a student/ teacher between the two. However, both mutually respect and trust each other. Collet sees Sister Annalyse as a role model while the Sister holds secret pride and care for her protege. These are implicitly felt as there is always an air of tutorship relations between them.
Fate: Fate has an extensive family, considering polygamy is legal in Arwessian culture. However, her relationship with her entire family isn't the best to say the least. Whilst her mother was the first wife and she herself the firstborn, the relationship within the six wives weren't smooth. Her mother has always been kindly and fragile and the internal conflict within the family took its toll on her. Fate helped her mother as much as possible in dealing with the trouble, but when the fighting took her mother's life, to Fate, there was nothing holding her to the family.
To her knowledge, her father, Elder Elarie was still alive, as is the 2, 3, 5 and 6th wife and the 16 children from all his marriages. However, all of these people are dead to Fate for what its worth.
Personal Adversaries:
Fate: Fate hates her father with a raw passion. To her, his inability to control his family caused the death of her mother and his lack of response and action thereafter her death showed to her how little he cared. Her hate bled onto all his other wives and the oldest 5 of the children. The others, were too small to know any better.
Close Companions:
Who can be more closer to someone than the person that is sharing a body with them? Fate openly shows that she enjoy Collet's company, though she seems to enjoy making her embarassed and squirm.

History:
#1
Name: Gozen Matabei (Gozen is surname)
Alias:
Alignment: Lawfully Good
Class: Samurai
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Age: 24
Appearance:
Attire: Matabei wears a female fundoshi with a black hakamawith a very obvious side vents and extremely flaired pant hem. It is to the point where it looks like a dress. The hakama hem spools over her feet, but her footwear is what raises it off the floor. For her upper torso, Matabei wears a white, sleeveless, backlesskimono. For her feet, Matabei dons short ankled, white tabi with 15 cm high wooden geta. These shoes are steel plated underneath and along the vertical stands, which allow the use of her feet in combat. To tie her ponytail, Matabei uses a long red ribbon in which she makes a cradle where she can slip in her wakiashi securely.
For her armour, Matabei had decided to go light weight. Her chest armour is light, covering most of her upper front torso and sides, but leaves her back rather open besides her lower back. Her skirt armour is also light, reaching from her waist to just above her knee. For gauntlets, the overlapping plating make means it is quite capable of being used as a shield to some degree against bladed attacks. To top off her ensemble, her headpiece is what also distinguishes her amongst people. The main helmpiece is the same silver as her other armour pieces. It covers most of the side of her head as well as her temples. The arching dip at the front also offer some limited protection for her eyes. It is held up by two straps on each side at the end, tied around the back of her head one above and the other below her ponytail. On the top of Matabei's head is a small silver headpiece headpiece with silver wire decorations and intricate carved details along with pearls at the side. It's shape is intended to resemble a dragon's head. On either side are a short column of tiger gur shaped into a cylindrical manner and on top of these are three peacock feathers before a pheasant tail feather is stuck on top. The total length of it is 110 cm, making her impressive height even taller. The pheasant tail stands erect and bends only slightly backwards around 90cm above. It is highly flexible so it does not break easily and capable of extreme bending. In total, her height is a staggering 3.15m tall. The final headpiece is kept on her ehad via two steel bands which can be clipped onto the interier of the forehead piece.
Personality: Relatively light hearted, Matabei takes things as they come. To stereotype, Matabei can be seen as the big sister/ mother persona rolled into one body. This means that while she is capable of teasing, joking and general merryment with her friends and companion, Matabei retains a sense of responsiblity to make sure that they are safe and sound and try to keep them out of trouble. As a result, she is more than willing to throw herself into danger if it meant that she could help a friend out. Along with this is that panic does not come to Matabei. If things begin to heat up and get worse, Matabei takes it as it comes. This is mostly due to the format of training she has been put through, that panic leads to death.
With other people, her culture and her rather more noble family line (in her area) meant that Matabei is well mannered, composed and cultured. Her speech can be somewhat formal, ending people's names with the honorific "sama" or "dono". This makes her seem somewhat submissive and subservient as if she is talking to nobility or her liege. With everyone she meets, she gives them equal respect, praticularly those she cross swords with. Even if they are the scum of the earth and are doing nothing but antagonistic, Matabei has enough composure to not rise up against these provocation, but smile it off and if it comes to a fight, she would just do the most minimum damage needed to settle it. However, this only applies to things directed at her. Those aimed at her friends, she would stand up for them, still trying to keep things civil, but if it came to a fight, Matabei would be the first into it for her friends.
In face of strangers that had committed crime, her sense of justice kicks in and she just can't quite turn away from it. Dependant on the situation, if it wouldn't bring any additional trouble to her or her companions, then Matabei probably confront. If it was a friend that has done the deed, rather than immediately take proper action, like a sister, she would try to understand as to why they had done that and may try to help them from repeating it. In her heart, she knows she is hyprocritical, but she could not just send her friends to prison or to the law.
On the battlefield, she enjoys the fight, not on a blood thirsty level, but the process of clashing blades, competition. To her, it is like sparring, even though one usually ends with death. Rather than revel in the ending of her opponents life, she thanks every single one forsharpening her skill. Taking lives is not what she enjoys doing, but the path of a martial artist is lined with potential death. Anyone that fights should be prepared for one's end.
Matabei's cultural background is lodged solidly on virtue, fealty, loyalty, chivalry and honour. That means she is devoted to her friends to a fault, making her an easy target for betrayal, though she had lived through a fair few of those as well. However, that has not stopped her in trusting people. Just makes her a bit more cautious, but not by much. Her trust in people often makes people think she is dumb. On the contrary, rather than dumb as she is quite intelligent, she is gullible and credulous, making her prime target for pranks with friends.About herself, Matabei is open, straightforward and kind. She is a bad liar, making her a bad gambler in certain games, but she has incredible luck to the point of miracles. People are able to tell if she lies as she often sounds even more formal than her usual speech and she has a hard time looking at the person in the eye. Instead, Matabei sugarcoats harsh words and try to balance out any negative things she had said. For arguments, Matabei can be quite forgiving, willing to put things behind her if they are not too serious. A simple apology would do. She would even apologies along as well, if it makes repairing the relationship easier.
First Impression: What much can be said about meeting a 3 meter tall woman wielding weapons that can easily cleave a man in two and armour? Nothing much besides intimidation and "can you get out of my sunlight?". However, pass her size, her face is friendly enough that people are relatively civil and nice with her. Her exposed back and arms also draw a few raised eyebrows considering the age that she is in.
Statistics: Matabei's main clout is her physical prowess. What she lacks with magic, she makes up for a higher physical ability.
Strength: Matabei is that size for a reason. She packs a heavy punch with whatever body part she is using, being quite capable of grappling and throwing armoured men. This gives her a lift weight of about 35 kg per hand with a bench ability of about 100 kg. With her strength, she can drop most people with a single shot, though blowing through buildings unarmed is impossible. With a weapon though, if she aims at weak spots she can do substantial damage.... in due time. Her strength also allows her to wield her weapons with ease at with one hand. Something most average men are unable to do or accomplish efficiently.

Left: Collet has grey hair, that borders a light grey. It isn't exceptionally long, perhaps down just to her shoulder blades. Her hair is slightly wavy and full with her side bangs tied in plaits down to her chest tied with a pair of green ribbons.
Right: Fate's hair is a bit similar in a sense that it is also wavy and her side bangs are tied with a ribbon and is a bit more full. What is different is that it is more wavy than Collet and is blonde. Her side bangs reach chest level, but are not done in plaits and are tied with red ribbons. The rest of her hair is rather short, probably down to half of her neck since its wavy and a bit curly.

Others:
The one big kicker with Aestivalis is that she isn't one human, but rather two humans that have been fused together. Therefore, half of one side of her body belongs to Collet and the other half belongs to Fate. Through a natural miracle, the two have almost identical DNA structure, despite having several obvious difference in appearance. First of all would be their difference in hair. The other being their eye colour. They were lucky in that their frame, body shape, bone structure and pretty much all of their internal parts were close to being the same.
A more detailed examination would show that Collet is physically weaker by a large degree than Fate, though her magical flow paths, her prowess and abilities easily outstrip that of Fate when they were two separate people. The whole premise for the experiment was to create a perfect being. That said, as the left side of Aestivalis is Collet, her physical ability, although bolstered, is still less than that of her right and vise versa with magic.
Collet's side is somewhat more soft, with a slightly less defined muscle structure than her right, whilst Fate's side has a less obvious mana glow when they do magic. There is no signs of the operation besides the hair, eye colour and eye shape. People may feel that her face doesn't seem quite symmetrical, that each side seem natural, yet distinctly different. While both Collet and Fate are pretty darn similar, face wise pre-operation, there are still certain aspects of their face that differ, such as Fate having sharper features like the eyes and slightly higher cheekbone.
Personality:
Again, Aestivalis is basically two people merged into one. Its brain, is somewhat bigger than that of a normal person, has full capacity of two people. This also meant that BOTH personality from Collet and Fate is present. As a result, they can converse with each other as if two people in the same room, aware of what the other is doing and able to interrupt to a large degree of the other's action. Again, Collet has more control over her left side and vice versa for the right should they try to interrupt each other. From the outside, the two appear to always bicker with each other, though it is more Collet being the stringent parent and Fate being the delinquent child or that of an old married couple
Collet: Collet is a saint. Almost quite literally as stated by her alias and nickname "Living Saint Azureus". She is alike an angel descending from heaven. The healing wind for the sick and the sword and shield for the weak and needy. A scraped knee while playing tag? No problem. A soldier bleeding out with his guts hanging on the battlefield? Of course she'll be there. Bandits attacking an innocent caravan? She'll greet them with a serenade of destructive magic (which she'd more likely than not, go and help them afterwards). She is the epitome of justice, righteousness, compassion and the way of the light. Collet's compass of justice is damn close to 90% accurate in that with whatever little information she can gather, she can usually deduct correctly what happened and mete out due punishment. The remaining 10% is because she is human regardless. She would not actively hunt down those that trick her but should their path cross again, Collet would give chase till she catches or lose them. Matching her sense of justice, Collet is caring and strict like a parent with acting proper and what not, though she is innocent.
Fate: The polar opposite of Collet. Fate is one that lives by the day and live life in the fast lane. While not inherently evil, she is no where even remotely close to her body co-habitant. Chaotic Neutral is the best description for Fate. As fickle as the weather, while Collet is relatively predictable, interacting with fate is like playing a cat and mouse game, not knowing what she is thinking nor what she will do. She places herself as priority due to her upbringing and with the recent events, that now includes Collet's well being. For some reason, Fate has developed a romantic, loving and mothering attraction with Collet, bordering being possessive. Whether she helps a dying person or leave them to their fate is really dependent on her mood. Also unlike her religious friend, she is not a virgin (though the nether regions are taken from Collet) and she is relatively feisty and rather amorous individual with a penchant for beautiful girls, preferably virgins. For those that wronged her enough, Fate will carry a grudge and if she finds out that they are within nearby vicinity, may seek them out for revenge. Fate is equally as smart as Collet, except in the street smart and survivability sense, which also makes her a good judge of character. Collet is able to make proper judgement on incidents, but her ability to discern people's personality is lacking. This is where Fate has to cover for Collet. Being opposite of Collet, Fate is less so innocent and strict, being rather easy going, carefree and a bit of a kid, being rather risque with her co-habitant.
First Impression:
Aestivalis can get pretty much get anyone to do a double take on her, mostly due to the fact that her hair is of two different colour, her asymmetrical clothing and the subtle distinct irregularity with her face. Upon conversing or interacting with Aestivalis for the first time, most people will be somewhat concerned or taken back from her two minds. They are so distinct and lifelike that most people would somewhat believe them if they told them their situation. In certain cases, they would find their contrasting personality acts funny and humourous.
Distinguishing Marks:
Collet: Collet has zero body art that she has applied by her own accord for decoration. The only thing she has is a single, large tattoo of the Crimean Cross that is emblazoned from the base of her neck down to between her shoulder blades and spans to the two bones. On her left ear, Collet wears a cross earring and a Crimean Cross necklace.
History: Unlike Fate, this tattoo occurred miraculously via scarring. During her youth, her back experienced extreme pain for an entire night suddenly as if she felt knives carving her back. It was only when dawn came when the other sisters came to investigate as to why she was late to morning rituals did they find her covered in blood and found the cross tattoo on her back. Rather than appearing grisly fresh wounds, upon cleaning, the tattoo was clean, neat and of dark blood red. Seeing it as a miracle, it further spurred Collet to follow in God's footsteps and carry the burden for the people.
Fate: For Fate, she had a plethora of distinguishing marks, most done on a whim. Most prominent are her exotic body tattoos. When their body fused, most of her inking disappeared except for some rather large ones. The first is her leg one on her right leg which reaches mid shin length. The next is her right arm. The hand has a Shahanian style tattoo covering her backhand, her wrist and her forearm. On the underside of her forearm, she has another Shahanian Tattoo that reaches to her elbow crux. On her biceps the Shahanian Bara (flower) is emblazoned across the front of her arm and to her embarrassment and slight disgust, three prominent Arwenian scriptures are tattooed on her. One at the shoulder joint above the Bara, the second ringing the shoulder join scripture and the last is behind both the first and second. Her last tattoo invades onto Collet's side and covers the right shoulder and lower back. The flower on the back is much smaller and is set very low set on the body like a tramp stamp. This was lucky as it is just clear of Collet's stigma. The stigma is very big, covering most of the shoulder blades and reaches just below the neck and down to her lower back.
Fate is also a heavy patron of jewellery. For just the right ear, she has a heavy set golden earring that dangles past her jawline, while bracketing it on the same ear are a pair of earring with more Arwenian scripts. On her hand. she wears a hand flower bracelet, an anklet on her right ankle and a gold coin necklace piece, to Collet's chagrin as it gets in the way of her cross.
Religion/Spiritual Views:
Collet: Collet is a prominent member of the Holy Crimean Church, believing in the one and True God. During its earlier phases, this belief led it into constant conflict with other Religions, with the Crimean Church coming out on top ultimately and leading it to becoming one of the world's dominant religion. However, conflict with the followers of the Arwessia, another major Religion, for over several centuries led the two into a stalemate. Through a religious renaissance, the Crimean Church ideals softened, having mutual respect for the strength of the Arwessians. Whilst still believing that their's is the True God, they have mutual respect and truce with each other, allowing scholars to travel between religious lands in which they share. Their style is more Western, with looming stone structures of straight spires and lines and dominates the entire Northern Europa area and the top fifth of Khavar Mashirq.
Fate: Whilst not a fervent believer, Fate is brought up an Arwessian. Being an Arwessian is much more than someone being a follower of the Crimean Church, as it influences heavily on the lifestyle and culture of the people. Similar to the Crimean Church in that it believes it's God is the True God, the Arwessians of old waged war incessantly with the Crimean Church and only through the Enlightment Age, did it also progress through a renaissance period in which a truce was established. The Arwessians are more into the religion as its law is the law of the land. Due to having almost 100% of the people in the area being followers, prayers, festivals and laws are more than just religion, but how they live. Arwessian style is more exotic, with rising domes, mosiacs and tiles, plastered walls and curves, with a more Middle Eastern taste, contrasting heavily with the more North Western Crimeans. It dominates the rest of Khavar Mashirq and the top two third of the Arepher region. However, unlike Europa, Khavar Mashirq and Arepher is much more arid and less hospitable.
Political Affiliation:
Both Fate and Collet have rather unique relation with politics.
Collet: The Crimean Church holds significant power in the Europa continent. All countries are, to some extent, manipulated or can be by the Church. As a result, those of high position in the Church are powerful in their own rights. In essence, Europa is itself a theocracy in which each country are like its "provinces" or "states" and ultimately can be controlled by the Church. As for Collet's affiliation, she is a high member within this theocracy. Although she herself does not believe that the Church should influence and play politics with each country like a ruler, it does allow a large degree of freedom and advantages for her to help those in need and she is one of the minority that shares this viewpoint. Her position as a Preceptor Canoness of the ancient and esteemed Order of the Holy See puts her on the same level as the 200 Cardinals, right below the Senior Cardinals and the Papal. With her ridiculously high position within the Church, her fame and her devotion to her religion, Collet is by default affiliated with Theocracy.
Fate: On the opposite end of the spectrum, Fate is not that religious. She follows traditions as a life style, though she has no qualms in breaking laws. Whilst being born from one of the Elder of Aquincum, she was wild and free, disliking the heavy restrictions and rules placed on her. As a result, Fate has no political affiliation. Her tattoos were inscribed during the time in which she was devoted to her religion. However, she saw many failings in some of its teachings as preached by isolationists and extremists that were in abundant. Fate also could not stand the inequality with females and eventually, abandoned her faith in it.
Style:
Collet: As a Priestess, a member of the Clergy and an adventurer/ traveler, Collet put practicality and her religion above all. Her preferred colour is that of white, yellow and blue. Fabric differs from circumstances, where when traveling, thicker and warmer material such as wool to fend off the weather. All in all, her style is proper and neat, reflective of her pure self, without anything flashy.
Fate: Like many other aspect, Fate is the complete opposite of Collet. Indulging in anything fine, she prefers silk, cashmere, anything expensive and comfortable and usually in fantastic and exotic colours such as orange, red, gold and the like. Practicality plays a lesser role for her style and its more about appearance. She wants people to ogle and as a result, she also wears a ridiculous amount of accessories and dress rather skimpily.
Attire: All of Collet's insignia/ brooches/ badges are the Crimean Cross as a base, but is the Order of the Holy See variant, distinctly stating the order she is from
Casual - The casual wear they have are chosen purely based on situation. In Europa, it would obviously be more beneficial to wear Collet's uniform and vice versa in Khavar Mashirq or Arepher. However, it is rather hard for Fate to convince Collet to wear her outfit.
Collet #2 #3: As a nun, Collet has a uniform for her casual wear. It consist of two layers of clothing which covers most of her body. Its appearance is a good deal more ornate, detailed and fancy than the regular uniform, mostly due to her position within the Church.
First and foremost, she wears a torso tight white dress at the bottom. It is in a Victorian fashion where it is form fitting at the torso. It hugs her figure until the waist, where it then flares out loosely in a dress down to just above her ankles. At the base of the dress, it has highly intricate laced patterns with blue outline (refer to #2). It is relatively plain at her torso besides hugging her figure. At the shoulders, they puff up a bit, but return to hugging her arm until halfway down her forearm, where they flare out a bit. Like the bottom of the dress, the edge of her sleeves have lace patterns. The dress goes up half her neck, whilst on top, she has a lace neck ruff. On top of her torso is a leather corset which acts as a form of armour as well as clothing.
On top of this dress, she has her main coat. Long and flowing, it is tailored to be also form fitting, rather than straight. It therefore angles in at the waist. Similarly white, the edges of collars and edged are lined with blue hemming. The back has a short slit that runs from the base of the coat up to half of her thigh, allowing for easy leg movement. At the front, there are two slits that can be buttoned up at each leg. Collet has them unbuttoned to just below her waist. Whilst there are buttons on both sides up to the top, the coat is usually opened from the left side. The sleeves are similar to her inner dress, in which it is slightly puffy at the shoulder, hugs her arm and flares up after the forearm. It's cuffs are folded back and are lined with a fair amount of cuff links in the shape of holy ornaments (refer to #3). At each bicep, she has a metal insignia of her Church secured onto the sleeves. Like a mantle over her shoulder and around her neck, she has a white cloth that covers her collarbones and her neck, standing up stiff up to her jaw line. Like her cuffs, the collar is also lined with ornaments (refer to #3) and across her throat to keep it closed, Collet has a metal band that keeps it in place. She has a Crimean cross that hangs from one link from the throat band. At her upper torso, Collet wears a leather brace (refer to #3) which wraps under her bust, goes over her shoulder and around her back. Hanging from the back on a central loop is a mass of silver chains that have silver ornaments hanging from the end. It is on top of this coat that she wears her Crimean Cross, which reaches just below her bust. On her chest is a platinum brooch of the emblem of the Order of the Holy See.
Collet's habit covers her head partially. Along both sides of the front, three ornaments are pinned along the edges while it is held down to the side veils with a single church insignia on each side (refer to #3). The veil are rather long and reaches down pass her shoulder, ending at the small of her back. Collet dons white gloves with the basic red Crimean Cross on the top. For her legs, she wears a pair of white lace stockings with garter, in which she wears a white, heeled leather boots that is ornately plated at the Achilles, the ankles, the shin and the toes.
Fate #2 #3: In steep contrast to Collet, Fate wears extremely revealing clothes. When Collet relents to wearing Fate's outfit, she does not hold back with her appearance. The basic outfit consist of a golden spangled bikini with black strings. For her feet, she dons a pair of red sandals. On top, she has a near transparent silk shawl draped across her shoulder and her back, lined with metallic bangles on one side. Her pants are made of the same transparent material and are baggy and loose as to allow better ventilation from the area's hot weather. Around her waist, Fate wears a type of sarong that wraps behind her waist and her sides, held up by an expensive golden belt with red jewel in the middle (refer to #2). All along the edges are golden tassels. A long length of blue silk cloth hangs from a loop behind her waist on her belt, which has two large golden tassels at the end.
Along with what she already wears, her jewelry would be for both ears/ hand/ foot and Fate would also wear several neck hoops that cover half her neck, gold hoops on her wrist and ankle as well as an expensive golden necklace with a large red jewel in the center. Hanging from her waist belt is a heavily decorated scimitar and for her head, a diamond forehead necklace. On both index, ring and pinkie, she has a different ring on it made from gold, silver or platinum. Her toes are also similar in that her second, fourth and last toe also have rings. On her ankles, she wear ankle bracelets that have silver spangles.
Disguise -
Both have very peculiar clothing so if they are pursued, they can be very easily spotted in a crowd. Depending on whereabouts they are on in the continent, they have different disguises.
In Europa, Collet usually doesn't need to hide since she holds power there. However, should the situation calls for it, her "go to" clothing is rather masculine. She would wear a white, woven medieval tunic with a leather outer wear on top. She would have a belt across her waist in which she hangs a short sword. On her legs, she would wear black leggings and high leather boots. Of course, with her hair being the way it is, she would have to wear a brown hood.
In Khavar Mashirq and Arepher, they would go with Fate's choice. It is a good deal easier to disguise due to the area's baggier style. She can, obviously, wear a Hijab with a long overdress like a burqa or just cover her face if need be. This lets her disguise herself very quickly and blend in with other females. That or she can dress up as a male, wearing a white thawb with a white sirwal underneath and a pair of brown sandals. On her head, she can then wear a gray and white keffiyeh to cover her hair. Should she want to take a step further, they can also wear a dark brown bisht cloak.
Apparatus A -
For traveling in general, Collet and Fate had to come to some form of compromise for their daily attire. On the inside, she wears a white suit shirt. Both sides have the sleeves rolled above the elbow, but the buttons done bar three from the top. It is also of material that would reveal what was underneath should it be of noticeable colour. In Fate's case, she wears her spangled bikini. It therefore shows through clearly on the right side. On her left foot, Collet retains a single purple stocking and garter whereas her right side is bare. Fate has also opted for a pair of heels. This is not to Collet's liking, but since it is impossible to walk with different footwear on each foot and Fate not budging an inch, Aestivalis wears a pair of low heels with ankle bracelets on both legs whilst on top is a short skirt (black base colour with dark gray line pattern) that reaches above the knee.
Collet believes that the outfit is much too indecent for her taste. Therefore, she went and procured a half waist apron and a half coat. The half apron is a ankle length leather skirt that covers close to the entire left leg and most of the front and back, leaving only the left leg and waist uncovered. That side is Fate's, so Collet is unable to do anything about it. The apron is held on by a belt across the waist and another belt that runs from the front left side at the waist, over her chest and right shoulder before coming back down to the back left side. This holds in securely in place, even during vigorous movements.
The half coat is another clothing with similar intention. It is a loose left sleeve that covers down most of her hand and arm, and covers her left torso. It is tailored so it angles in at the waist. It reaches past her waist where it meets the apron. Obviously, as is, it wouldn't hold in place. The half coat has white lines and pieces at the front shoulder as well as on top of the collar, while it has a Crimean Cross insignia secured onto the front of the left. At chest level, the coat has a belt that goes from the front around the right side and connected to the back, interlacing with the belt for the apron, clipped in place. From the epaulette strap, there is a belt comes down the front and back and clips on to where the other two belt meets, holding said half coat in place.
To top it off, if really need be, Collet has an overcloak on top of everything that has a cowl. The cowl that has a deep front at the top which can help her cover her face. It is black in colour and has this pattern in white. It is kept closed at the collar via a chain and only really cover a small portion of her collar. Similar to the half coat, it is rather militaristic and uniform in style, but simplistic, being a dark navy blue and white. A stitched Order of the Holy See emblem is on the left of the left while there is a modest sized Crimean Cross on the back. Fate isn't bothered by Collet's display of her Church, but should they need to, the coat is reversible and sports a plain lighter navy blue colour to it.
Weapons:
Both sides have their own respective weapons that each prefer.
Collet:
Azalia #2 #3:
A long staff about 1.8 meters in length. It is a magnificent staff made of Meorite metal, giving it high strength and blemish proof. Its body is constructed with black Meorite, giving it a shiny, polished appearance. On its body, near the top, there are inscriptions set into the body made from charged Meorite as well as symbols of the Church and her Order set in closer to the bottom. The end section of the shaft is made of charged Meorite, as is the top prongs. The end is capped off with a large magical gem called Sorium, which is known for their magical capabilities. Added that with the charged Meorite's own magical properties, it helps Collet with her magic casting. The four prongs surround the more concentrated Sorium gem at the top end, with engravings carved straight through the metal.
Azalia is Collet's main weapon. It is one of the most sacred item of the Church. As a holy item, it also buffs up healing and support magic.
While she is capable of casting without it, by using Azalia, she can conjure faster and more effectively. As well as being a magic conductor, Collet also uses Azalia as a physical weapon. Rather weighty and strong, Collet uses it as a blunt force weapon, capable of crushing bones with massive blows. Another interesting feature of the staff is that it chooses its wielder. Having the ability to gauge one's spirit, it chooses those that it feels most suitable. As a result of this, it led to a massive controversy during the time Collet obtained it.
Hellfire:
A rather odd name, given her disposition and her affiliation. Hellfire, despite its name, is another Blessed item. The Order said it was a lower tier item in comparison to Azalia, but Collet couldn't help but feel that there is something off about it and that the Order was not telling her something. Regardless, Hellfire is a straight, single sided curved sword made also from Meorite. It's hilt, hand guard and scabbard is extremely intricate, designed with a dragon motif. The rain guard resembles a dragon wrapping around the blade where it then meets a standing dragon. Its head, feet and the out spread wings act as the hand guard whilst the hilt is the tail, wrapping around downwards with the tip meeting the legs. The scabbard has a winged dragon at the end, wrapping around the wood whilst the there are similar dragons at the middle and at the end.
Swords are not Collet's favourite weapon. They cause outright lethal wounds when used and is much harder to hold back with than her staff. Collet has yet to find any interesting properties with the sword itself and is confused by it being in her possession. It was a nice sword indeed, but that was all. When she was presented it, Collet was ordered to keep it in her possession at all times, that it can be used as a symbol for the Church. It confused Collet because the sword did not resemble a cross. For her, if she was to carry any sword, she would have preferred the cruciform arming sword. When she questioned it, giving reasons such as the lethality of it, the Order predicted even further and said that the blade has been blunted. It is still relatively sharp, but cut wounds would not be deep nor overly deadly. However, diligently, Collet carries Hellfire with her everywhere. The scabbard is secured behind her on her waist in a vertical configuration on the left side. Sicne she doesn't use it much, it isn't in a quick draw position. She is proficient in fencing, so Collet can use the sword with some degree of skill. She has used it before and like the elders have said, with its current edge, it isn't dangerous to a large degree. Nowadays, if it came to really needing to use it, Fate would take control of her arm due to her being more skillful in melee weaponry
Fate: Fate lacks the same magical capabilities as Collet. However, she is extremely talented and proficient with physical combat. Her weapons reflect that with both being short one handed weapon that require skill to dual wield efficiently
Hafala #1 #2:
Fate's main weapon is a falcata around 75 cm in length. Skillfully made, it is crafted for the sole purpose of killing with style. Its odd shape is used in its construction so that she can cut and slash like a sword, but maintain and distributes it's weight so that it has the ability to deliver a blow like an axe. Along the blade, the blacksmith engraved gold design plus scriptures on the metal, whilst the hilt is treated metal with gold design. Unlike Azalia or Hellfire, Hafala is made for pure physical attacks. There are no fancy enchantments or tricks to it besides its superior keen blade and craftsmanship. It is stored on the left side behind their waist, making a cross with Hellfire in a horizontal configuration with the hilt facing left for quicker draw.
Ihma:
Fate's second weapon is a curved dagger of 35 cm in length. Its make is very similar to Hafala since it is by the same blacksmith, giving it a keen edge as well as aesthetic beauty. Its cutting edge is so fine that it can cut bone when executed properly. While she wont be cutting off limbs in one go, it is possible when several strikes are performed. Golden designs and scriptures also run down the blade of the sword while its hilt is treated mahogany with a gold pommel. Fate can use it in reverse grip and for slitting throats or stabbing people. The point and blade is very sharp and the double edged tip at the end is designed to puncture chain mail. Once inside a chain link, the motion of the stab would shove the blade in and slice the link through. Ihma is hung on the side of her waist on her right side and can be used in conjunction with Hafala
Special Talents/Abilites:
Magic Infusion:
Blessed by Seraphim Ithuriel, Collet was given an excellent magical circuit in her body. When performing magic, her circuits light up as bright cyan lines along her body, face and limbs. The conduits allow Collet to cast magic with ease and proficiency on an incredibly large and complex scale. However, the surgery has marred Collet's circuitry. During the fusion surgery, the intention was to implant her entire right side circuit into Fate and graft Fate's superior muscles into Collet's left side. Unfortunately, the procedure didn't work out exactly as planned and while Fate's body accepted the implant, it didn't assimilate perfectly into her body. In actuality, Collet's effectiveness with magic dropped rather drastically due to the artifical implantation of half of her circuits into a foreign body. She was no longer able to reach her previous standards. Originally, Collet was one of the top Clerics in the world, with almost inexhaustible mana supply and perfect conduction of mana for instant casting of large scale, complex spells. Post surgery, her capabilties dropped down to that of a Journeyen's level. Her knowledge of her craft is still there, but conjuring them requires much more effort, time and mana than before. As a result of all this, the circuit glow is most prominant on Collet's side, with Fate's side being duller.
Power Graft:
Similarly to Magic Fusion, Fate's excellent muscle quality and structure were grafted and spliced into Collet's left side, hoping to boost her physical capabilities, just like how implanting Collet's magic circuits into Fate's right side in hopes of boosting her magical capabilities. Equally unfortunately, Collet's body didn't reject the graft and splicing, but it didn't exactly accept it unconditionally. Collet does have improved physical capabilities, but is still physically weaker than Fate.
Increased Cranial Power:
With two minds melded into one, Aestivalis, in essence, doubled her processing power. Already, Collet was quite intelligent prior to fusion and Fate was quite quick witted and sharp. They wouldn't have been chosen otherwise if they had inferior brains. When fused, Aestivalis basically had an increase in cranial capabilities, making her able to have the two concurrent personalities active and do much more such as being able to mutlitask much easier as well as solve even more complex issues and react faster. Of course, since Aestivalis' brain is not a natural occurance, heavy deliberate use of her mind causes mild pain to her head with prolonged use bringing more harsher levels. A short rest of a few minutes often fix that.
Strengths:
Physical and Magical capabilities:
As a fusion of two people of opposite specialty, Aestivalis has gained the prowess of both sides. Aestivalis is much more proficient and capable than a large majority of the human population, though she is nowhere near at Collet's original level. Aestivalis is also substantially much more capable, physically, than a large degree of the human population, yet not to the degree of Fate's original level. Of the entire operation, the brain splicing was the most successful part of it. Not only does the dual personality not interfere with either casting, chanting, fighting or rapid movements, Aestivalis is able to perform these tasks with almost no negative reprecussions or signal delay from her brain.
Cranial power:
Both girl's cranial capabilities were not lost either after the surgery. Collet retained all of her magical knowledge and Fate retained all her experiences and street know how. Even the more mundane things such as prayers of both religion, education and memories were not lost. Of course, with a connected brain, both personalities has access to each others memories, so there is no privacy what so ever. With an increased cranial size, Aestivalis is able to perform more tasks simultaneously, solve much more complex issues quicker and in general be much more observant and intelligent.
Weaknesses:
Magic power and physical coordination instablity:
The body part of the surgery was not as successful as the brain. Each side is stronger with their respective original speciality whilst the other falls behind slightly. Collet is more capable of channeling mana and casting magic whilst Fate's side has a slight issue with molding mana. This may result in slightly lopsided and more inefficient magic casting. The flip side is also the same, with Collet being weaker than Fate and slightly less capable of performing physical feats as easily as Fate can.
Cranial Protection:
Due to the larger size of her brain, Aestivalis is a bit more sensitive to head traumas. Whilst the surgeons grafted on the protective membranes from both brains for additional protection, the mere growth of severl mm in brain diameter effectively reduced the cushion zone of the cranial fluid by half. Therefore, cranial trauma is a bit more effective against Aestivalis than to normal humans. A knock to the head that wouldn't stun a person much would disorientate Aestivalis longer. The additional membrane grafts helps it hold in place more than a normal human, but physical restraints are more jerky and sudden than the cushioning of liquid.
Vitality :
Vitality is not Aestivalis' forte. One previously being a magc toting nun and the other a rogue thief, the two girl's were originally never inclined towards being in the front line or trading blows. In fact, both would much prefer to avoid confrontation if possible.

Bad Habits:
Fate is a trickster and a lech. She has a bad habit of playing tricks and harrassing Collet when she least expects it. This ranges from Fate poking Collet's side to all out groping Collet's chest when she least expects it, such as, during a conversation. To those that are unaccustomed to Aestivalis, this sudden action followed by Collet's reaction would be unsettling.
Job/Occupation:
Collet:
A member of the clergy for the Holy Crimean Church. More specifically, for The Order of the Holy See.
Past Occupations:
Freelancer:
Fate didn't have a set job after leaving her home. The most accurate description of what she did for a living was freelancing. Fate took on whatever job she fancied, from being a dancer, shop assistant, thief, treasure hunter, bounty hunter, mercenary, bodyguard and even a maid for a rich lady. She has done a wide range of jobs, though right now, she is stuck with Collet so freelancing isn't really an option now. The plus side is that Collet is quite wealthy and working for money is no longer an issue. However, Fate has to help assist Collet should she be required to do perform tasks or jobs she has taken upon herself.
Activities/Organizations:
Preceptor Canoness of The Order of the Holy See:
Direct subordinate to Superior Matron Canoness Annalyse, it can be said that Collet is one of the few powerful people across Europa and the known world. Even her fellow Canoness defer to her, not because she exceeds them in hierarchical power, but due to the fact that they believe she has been touched by the Gods through her stigma and her mana circuits and she is Annalyse's protege. It is the fact that she is all but officially recognised as the sucessor of Annalyse, and therefore the second most powerful person by potential, of the Order. Within her own authority, she is the head of one of the two convent that is situated in the The Order of the Holy See's main compound. The other is headed by Superior Matron Canoness Annalyse. Along with the two major convents are several smaller detachment convent within the compound. Outside of the Order's HQ, there are a slew of major convents of over a thousand as well as small detachment convent scattered across Europa and Arwessia, easily showing the size, influence and importance of the Order. Her original tasks included liasoning with the other Canoness, interacting and communicating along with Superior Matron Canoness Annalyse with other Crimean Church bodies, administration work and the like. However, many of these responsibility is performed by Collet's direct subordinates. Whilst she is quite capable of performing those tasks, Collet's unofficial main job is to maintain faith and morale of the convent and act as a shining beacon and example for all those that follow the Church and the Order. It is not a difficult task as Collet often fulfills this by merely doing what she always does, helping the weak and needy.

Relationship Status:
Collet: Single due to religious reasons
Fate: Single with a worrisome interest in Collet
Relationship History:
Collet: As a member of a devout religious order, Collet does not partake in any form of romantic relationships. As a human, she is not immune to actual romantic feelings. However, self discipline, willpower and devotion meant that she consciously keeps these in check and reject all advances. Her devotion is just that strong. Therefore, it is expected that she has zero relationship history. She has relationships on a friendship level and even familial endearment, but that is all.
Fate: As much as she is flirty, coquettish and a tease, she is not amorous. True that she is also not a virgin, but it doesn't mean she went around the town. Her view on romance is that if she genuinely loves the person, then she would not shy away from showing it, including intercourse. This numbers her partner to one for males. Females on the other hand, would be countless. However, she IS a cock tease and will lead men on a merry chase with no intention of letting them take it any further.
The one boy she has been with was a childhood friend she had when she was young. She was of the more higher class and he was much more poorer. It didn't stop her from enjoying his company. Even when young, she was bisexual and she lost her virginity at 12, but through a series of unfortunate events perpetuated by her father, he had died and that tore the final rift between daughter and father. Fate had sworn that she would love no other man when she was 5 to him and she intended to keep her vow. Women were different, however and she has had countless bed partners right until her fusion. Since Collet refuses to give her any allowance, Fate has stayed rather celibate. Fate isn't complaining however, since she has set her eyes on Collet and has her literally in bed every night. Them sharing a body gives her limitless opportunities to harass, molest and tease the poor nun, which she has taken a shine to.
Family:
Collet: Collet is an orphan, which explains why she was brought up in a convent. She has no idea as to who her real parents or family are, so instead, she treats those in the convent as her family. The mother figure would be Mother Siesta who is the matron of St Martha's church she grew up in. While she was close to the other orphans that shared the church with her, Collet was particularly close to those that entered the Church. Brother John and Amuro, Sister Rimula, Lala and Agi would be what Collet considers siblings since they stayed with Mother Siesta in St Martha until she was taken to the main HQ of her Order. Despite being taken early after her stigma appeared, Collet has kept in close contact with the small Church and with her more powerful position, Collet guiltily used her power to ensure that St Martha Church was taken care of behind the scene.
While not exactly family, Superior Matron Canoness, Sister Annalyse, the current head nun for The Order of the Holy See, was the one that took Collet into the Order and acted as her guardian and teacher/mentor. There has always been a student/ teacher between the two. However, both mutually respect and trust each other. Collet sees Sister Annalyse as a role model while the Sister holds secret pride and care for her protege. These are implicitly felt as there is always an air of tutorship relations between them.
Fate: Fate has an extensive family, considering polygamy is legal in Arwessian culture. However, her relationship with her entire family isn't the best to say the least. Whilst her mother was the first wife and she herself the firstborn, the relationship within the six wives weren't smooth. Her mother has always been kindly and fragile and the internal conflict within the family took its toll on her. Fate helped her mother as much as possible in dealing with the trouble, but when the fighting took her mother's life, to Fate, there was nothing holding her to the family.
To her knowledge, her father, Elder Elarie was still alive, as is the 2, 3, 5 and 6th wife and the 16 children from all his marriages. However, all of these people are dead to Fate for what its worth.
Personal Adversaries:
Fate: Fate hates her father with a raw passion. To her, his inability to control his family caused the death of her mother and his lack of response and action thereafter her death showed to her how little he cared. Her hate bled onto all his other wives and the oldest 5 of the children. The others, were too small to know any better.
Close Companions:
Who can be more closer to someone than the person that is sharing a body with them? Fate openly shows that she enjoy Collet's company, though she seems to enjoy making her embarassed and squirm.
