[Aaron008R]

@Kha Hah, I didn't expect Allison to be of the extremely nice girl type. In any case, I guess it does fit her. A question though, Do you intend her to have some interest in Erio? She is a pink-haired loli after all.

Spoiler for Phantom 1:

Name: Brevis Altezza
Nickname: Stormwolf
Callsign: Phantom One
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Birthday: Unknown
Occupation/s: TSAB contract mage, Bounty hunter (former)
Rankings: Registered mage ranking: AA+
Height: 188cm
Weight: 154 lbs.
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Dirty Gray, unruly
Magic style: Neo-Velka
Magic Color: Brick Red
Usual wear: A brown jacket with black pants
Specialization: Offensive tanking
Devices: Battle Armor Device Beowulf

Profile: He is used to a bounty hunter but currently a TSAB Contract Mage. He was recruited two years prior to StrikerS by the TSAB military (actually by the influence of a researcher named Aurion Dauer). He seems like a cold and calculating individual most of the time, but he is also shown to be able to handle casual conversations with mostly anyone. He was transferred over to the research facility Professor Dauer is working on to serve as a tester of the new types of devices made by the said researcher. He would be later joined by his teammates Cressida Rush, Liana Forsa and Vinson Forenza; making up the experimanetal unit called Phantom Squad.

Personality: Brevis, a first glance, gives of the impression of a stern and imposing person. Though the first impressions have their merit, (he is rather silent and calculating) he is in fact a slightly laid back person who has a passion for gambling. He would generally get along well with anyone once they get to know him, (initially intimidating several of his acquaintances at first encounters) but he's not one to speak for long; except when the mission is involved. He's always calm and has very impressive judgement during combat (despite his reckless combat style). He has a hobby of gambling, preferring the higher stakes for higher excitement, and usually treats battles as a sort of gamble.

Relationships: He usually regards anyone with silent consideration. But he is hown to be quite close with his squadmates, especially Cressida, who is rumored to be his girlfriend. Ironically, his silent character contrasts only too well with Cressida's unnervingly happy and carefree attitude; making them seem like a comical couple like what can be seen in comedy sitcoms. He is rather supportive towards the soft-spoken Liana, while he and Vinson has a commander-soldier relationship. He may appear wary around Aurion, but he generally trusts the researcher's judgement. Out of the three Aces, whom the Phantom Squad only gets to meet twice, Nanoha is shown to be the one most comfortable around him, even at one time berating him for his reckless tactics.

Device: Battle Armor Device Beowulf:
This device is one of the prototype battle armor designs by Aurion Dauer. It's functions is most identical with Armed Devices in general. It consists of a small upper-body armor with arm weapon attachments. The attachment for the right arm is a rather large pincer claw with a multi-barrel gun at the center, while the left arm attachment has four extendable energy jackhammer attachments. The right arm weapon makes use of a five-shot revolver cartridge loader while the left arm uses a large magazine loader (with five cartridges as well). The device also extends as an armor for Brevis up his arms and his torso. There are two small cannon attachments on each of his shoulders, along with small boosters at the backs and stabilizer wings at the sides. Beowulf has a mechanical male voice and speaks in German. He addresses Brevis as 'Fuhrer'. His sealed form is a belt with a buckle having a symbol of a Joker with a wolf's face.

Barrier Jacket: Brevis' barrier jacket consists of a red jacket under the armor provided by Beowulf, while his lower body has several black and red armor platings. He also gains a pair of boosters on his lower legs.

Fighting Style: Brevis' style is the most unusual combination of extreme defense and high speed. With Beowulf mostly an body armor more than a weapon, the two arm armaments and the cannons are technically secondary. Despite the bulk of his upper-body in his combat attire, the boosters and the stabilizer wings allows for a surprising amount of speed and mobility. He usually plows in to the enemy ranks at high speed using a variant of Panzergeist and proceeds to rip apart the enemy units apart. Given this, he is frighteningly dangerous in close-quarters combat, with his arm weapons (specifically the right) is capable of both enemy subjugation and attacking simultaneously. The canons allows him to fire off projectile spells at explosive levels at the cost of most of the range. He is capable of long range attacks but would rather leave that to others if possible. He is most dangerous when teamed up with Cressida; usually rendering enemies incapable of counterattacking due to the high mobility and the tenacity of the attacks of the two. He shares a combination move with Cressida called the 'Phantom Waltz'.

UNIQUE ABILITIES:
Brevis, technically not an official TSAB mage, is still not very accustomed to the relatively new Neo-Velka style of magic. He makes up for this with his impressive physical combat expertise coupled with the more straightforward spells of Velka like Panzergeist and Explozion. However, he was able to make a number of techniques entirely his own with his current knowledge of magic. Some of the abilities are:

Schrapnell Schuetze (Shrapnel Shooter)
- by gathering several clumps of dense magical energy in front of him, he is able to utilize his cannons to blast the gathered spheres of energy at an impressive firing rate. It is exceptionally difficult to dodge against this attack, making defense a primary choice of survival against this move. However, he almost always follows up with his Pincers or the Energy Quad-jackhammers; keeping the pressure up.

Erweiterung (Extension)
- As a simple application of controlling magical energies, Brevis is able to provide extensions to his Pincers and Jackhammers for extended applications.

Energy Horn
- By gathering a large amount of energy, Brevis is able to manifest a massive bladed energy horn in front of him, controlled by both his hands and his head (thus, the horn classification). This is an extremely risky but powerful move.

And now, for entry # 2.

Spoiler for Phantom 2:

Name: Cressida Rush
Nickname: Devious Angel
Callsign: Phantom Two
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Birthday: April 30 in the Earth Calendar
Occupation/s: TSAB Enforcer
Rankings: Registered mage ranking: AA
Height: 175cm
Weight: 136 lbs.
Eyes: Purple
Hair: Reddish Blond, tied in a wavy ponytail
Magic style: Neo-Velka
Magic Color: Blue-green
Usual wear: A red and white jacket, red miniskirt and thigh-high stockings
Specialization: Forward Multi-Range Assault
Devices: Armed Device Weiss Teufel (White Devil)

Profile: She was a high ranking Enforcer of the TSAB military before being transferred temporarily to the Tech Department for Device testing. Her transfer was made two years prior to StrikerS. She is one of the four mages hand-picked by the researcher Aurion Dauer. She is, put simply, an unnervingly cheerful and carefree person at first glance, she is also a major flirt. So much so that even aggressive males are intimidated by her advances. Though of course, one shouldn't be judged by their cover. Together with Brevis Altezza, Liana Forsa and Vinson Forenza, they make up the Phantom Squadron.

Personality: As mentioned earlier, she appears to be an unnervingly cheerful and carefree flirt. She can usually be seen talking animatedly and flirting with both males and females alike. Behind the lighthearted exterior, however, one would find a frighteningly swift and efficient combatant, though the cheerfulness is still there. She is an extremely smart woman and has been shown to be able to handle people with varying moods with practiced efficiency. At times, she has also shown a very supportive side when dealing with depressed people. People tend to fear her during her periods of seriousness, which rarely ever comes to this lighthearted woman.

Relationships: She seems to be in a special relationship with Brevis, who seems to be able to shoot down her flirting with him and her attempts to make him jealous with amazing ease. Despite this, it can be obviously seen that they are extremely close with each other. She shares a big-small sister relationship with Liana, while she claims that Vinson is her student on how to deal with girls (much to the latter's discomfort). She treats Barabus as a pet, much to the latter’s annoyance. She always insists that all girls younger than her to call her Onee-chan or Onee-sama. Out of the Aces, Hayate is shown to be most comfortable around her, actually flirting back at the older woman playfully, which usually causes several people to back away in fear of the two. And about the researcher Aurion, he seems to be one of the only few people who can match Cressida in an animated discussion.

Device: Armed Device Weiss Teufel (White Devil)
This device an oddity in the realm of Armed Devices. This is due to the fact that being an armed device, Weiss Teufel is actually a triple barrel heavy rifle, a shooting weapon. However, an extendable barbed 'tail' can be found at its base, which is used at close to mid range. At the end of the barrel, one can find that each barrel is surrounded by three apposable claws. The three clawed barrels are actually detachable from Weiss, attched only by black pulsating tentacles, (Severing the tentacles will only prompt the units to attack independently) leaving only a single larger barrel behind. An eight-cartridge loader is used. If one of the clawed barrels are destroyed, it is easily replaceable; and Cressida has shown to be able to manifest up to six barrels at a time. The claws are able to create half-meter long energy blades each. Her sealed form is a keyhain with a hanging head of a white demon. Weiss Teufel has a mechanical voice of a young girl and addresses Cressida as Schwester. Cressida addresses her as Weiss-chan

Barrier Jacket: Cressida's barrier jacket is a flashy blue, red and white vest with a matching short skirt and stockings. A couple of stationary white bat wings can be found at her back.

Fighting Style: The core of Cressida's combat style is her speed and maneuverability coupled with Weiss' multi-range capabilities. Primarily a sniper, Cressida prefers to fly around the border of the combat zone and shoot strategically placed shots (and swipes from the extendable barbed 'tail' of Weiss) for maximum efficiency. Though at some times, she goes 'suicidal' and jumps in the center of the fray with no regards to her unimpressive defense. She usually does this when Brevis is covering her back and proceeds to do a graceful 'Dance of Hellfire' (as she puts it) in where she flies completely erratically and attacking seemingly at random, but her shots usually hit the mark even at this level. Her combination move with Brevis is called the 'Phantom Waltz'. Cressida is just as talkative when fighting, except when she's angry.

UNIQUE ABILITIES:
Cressida is considered as a rare kind of Velkan sniper. She knows several spells of the Neo-Velkan style but prefers to use Weiss directly instead of casting spells. Out of the several moves she can perform with Weiss, here are some of the more notable ones.

Schwarm Schuetze (Swarm Shooter)
- While using this move, the three clawed barrels of Weiss are released from the main rifle body and three more barrels are made. Cressida engages the target at extremely high speed and fires of several shots from multiple angles. And what makes things more difficult is the fact that most of the shots fired from the clawed barrels are also controlled by Cressida; making dodging all the more difficult because of the 'swarm' of magic bullets.

Daemon Schwanz (Demon Tail)
- This move makes use of Weiss' 'tail'. The tail weapon of Weiss is extended to about ten meters and can be used to wrap around opponents as a direct bind. When the enemy is captured, (or even when not) the barbs on the tail extends several energy spikes that are specialized in ripping enemies apart.

Howling Launcher
-This involves Weiss Teufel growing three more barrels, making it a total of six barrels. At it's most powerful point, eight cartridges are used to fire off a concentrated or wide beam of extremely intense energy. The beam may be controlled to an extent but causes a lot of strain on Cressida. A distinct howling sound can be heard when this is fired. (hence, the howling classification)

The attitude alone should point to who I've based her on.
