Aera (Fayelon)

Aera

Aera is an OC created by Fanfictiondreamer for a very special story, the Fayelons Story. She is from a race of magic-wielding aliens known as Fayelons. She is the first of Jewel's friends, whom she met when they were little girls. They would eventually go on to meet the other childhood friend, Splash and then Flare and Star when they became a little older.

When news got out of a hero causing the deaths of so many from their realm (which is a term for galaxy for them), she became more than terrified. When Jewel made the decision to prevent this catastrophe from getting worse, she jumped into going along with her. She and the rest of the girls stole some magical items and fled in order to protect their realm and all those that they love.

For several months, they wandered that universe until they wound up in the Milky Way galaxy. However, unlike the other realms that they have visited, the girls decided to stand their ground there and take the fight to their pursuers with the crew of the Normandy promising to help however they can.

Personality

Aera started out as a shy girl. At a young age, she was sheltered, so she didn't really have a lot of friends. When she first met Jewel, they became close. Over time, she along with another childhood friend, Splash, helped her to become more outgoing and has become a little more courageous. Through this, she developed her snarky attitude.

As she got older, she became less withdrawn and more brave. Also, she became even more snarky with the urge to tell off all those who are rude towards her or her friends. She also developed much less of a fear of a lot of the mean girls, being one of a few to not be so easily intimidated by them. Her attitude has also made her Ms. No-Nonsense as she tends to be easily annoyed by stupidity and irrationality. She also has a deep disdain for bad puns, references, clichés and running gags, and also people trying to be funny but failing miserably.

Aera has developed compassion for her friends, being that they were the only friends that she had ever had due to her past. Her parents were always at odds with each other as to decide what to do. She was very close to her father, but her mother was a wicked control freak who wanted to keep her daughter under her thumb. This contributed to her sheltered childhood. Being that her mother disliked Jewel and her other friends for bringing her daughter out and becoming difficult to control, Aera would stand up to her mother, telling her off for being a tyrant rather than a mother and would even go as far as be snarky towards her, much to her mother's anger and disgust.

Aera's backbone and snarkiness has made her a rebel but she would never push herself too far. She has a kind and caring demeanor and would only use her snarky attitude as a form of self-defense, be it telling off those who were mean to her, or her friends. She would tend to show off her childhood coyness from time to time, but it hardly ever affects her badly.

At a young age, she has enjoyed a lot of sporty activities, a lot of them related to her powers. Such activities that she enjoys are skydiving. Because of this, she is not afraid of heights and enjoys jumping off of high places. This does worry her friends but very rarely does she lose herself to this urge. Although, she isn't a daredevil, but she's not too cautious either. She very often knows the right time to take risks and the right time to play it safe. This also comes with being one of the more reasonable members of her group. She clearly shows to have a lot of common sense which also contributes to her irritation towards stupidity and irrationality. Whenever she isn't too sure of something, to be safe, she hardly ever takes such risks.

Aside from a lot of bizarre things, she doesn't seem easily fazed by learning new things. In fact, finding out things that she had never experienced in her realm seem to intrigue her a bit. She became close friends with Steve and Samantha as she learned of their preferences towards romantic partners. Steve was married to another man and Samantha seems sexually attracted to other females. Neither she nor her friends were appalled by this, although they were a little surprised to find out about it. Such a thing is hardly ever seen as acceptable as pretty much everyone from their realm had been against such a thing. Aera, however, didn't really understand as to why it's something that should be frowned upon and really didn't care too much about it. Upon actually getting to know the 2, she found them to be pretty OK and really didn't see anything wrong with them. Being the Ms. No-Nonsense kind of person that she is, she had developed the urge to call off everyone back at home for being appalled by such a concept and really does look forward to returning home to do so. She is very well aware that she would be chastised and treated worse by everyone back in her realm for this, but couldn't care less as she never really liked a lot of those people. To put it briefly, she never had any problems with homosexuality at all but does have a problem with people who make a huge deal over it.

Aera also has a quirk for easily falling for cute animals, such as Commander Shepard's space hamster. Whenever there is a cute animal around, she would lose control of herself and squeal like a giddy, little girl while staring at them almost endlessly.

Powers

Aera's Metamorphose Form

As her name implies, she is an Aeromancer, meaning she can control the air and wind. She is able to utilize her wind abilities as her main source of attack. She can use her powers both aggressively and non-violently. She can summon large gusts at will and can even use her wind powers to slice things like knives. Her favorite ability to carry out involves conjuring up tornadoes, be it conjuring up large tornadoes to use as a massive weapon to shred things up or other ways that aren't as aggressive, or even conjure up small cyclones that she loves to use to launch herself or her friends into the air. One of her more favorite things to do is conjure a small cyclone to launch herself in the air and strike her enemies with a hard blow as she falls back down. She also uses these mini-cyclones on her and her friends to launch in the air as a main source of materializing their wings. She can also use her cyclones to lift things off of the ground with hardly anything being too heavy for her to lift.

When in the middle of space or anywhere else where there's no air, she is able to materialize air bubbles where air can exist so that she can use her wind powers effectively in such places. She had learned how to do this not long ago and has carried this out a lot being that she needed to do this as she and her friends tend to be in space a lot. This does use up a lot of her magical energy, but has learned how to conserve her energy, so that this technique doesn't drain her too badly.

Origin Story

Aera was from a world of Aeromancers. Her society consists of airborne civilizations. From there, her people can enjoy airborne sports and activities. Aera had also enjoyed these types of sports, even some that consists of testing their courage, such as how far they would fall before they utilize their air powers to break their fall or lift themselves back into the air.

As a child, Area had a very close relationship with her father. She loved her father to the edge of the universe and back. However, her mother was an abusive monster. She's a special type of magical power that will remain on a need-to-know basis for the time being, but because of this, her mother pretty much became a power hungry tyrant. She demands absolute control over her daughter and has even shown to be very cruel. Aera's nickname for her own mother was the Evil Queen because it portrays her personality perfectly.

As a child, Aera met Jewel and became good friends with her. She was perhaps the only friend that she has ever had. They also met Splash along the way and she became another good friend of hers. She was more so like an immature sister to her, but they had a lot of fun with each other as kids. Her mother was obviously opposed to this friendship and wanted to dispel it as soon as possible but Jewel and Splash's parents, as well as Aera's father, fought for their little girls' friendships and bonds, and opposed her Evil Queen of a mother.

Her father did everything he could to protect her and has kept her away from her abusive mother as much as he could. He also fought for his daughter's friendship with Jewel and Splash with all of his might. They liked him a lot and enjoyed being around him. He had fought to separate from her abusive mother while also fighting for custody of his daughter. He was able to win against his evil wife and things were looking up from there for him and Aera.

However, Aera's father mysteriously died and even though they knew how abusive her mother is towards her, those same people who allowed the father custody of his daughter pretty much automatically gave custody of Aera to her. Even worse than that, no one bothered to look into the mysterious death of her father. She was pretty much on the verge of being given back to her mother but then the Disciples of Order intervened and overruled the cruel and unfair judgement. From this, she was given to some relatives until she was to attend the academy where she would attend courses with other Fayelons.

Aera always desired to stand up against her cruel mother. So, from this as well as gaining courage from her friends, she developed her snarky personality. She also despised how screwed up the system of her world was for letting her mother steal custody of her, even though they knew what she was; so she developed a bit of a rebellious demeaner as well as a hatred towards irrationality. She also developed an extreme dislike towards much of her world excluding the fun parts of it that gave her some of the best years of her life. However, she rarely returned to her world with the exception of seeing her relatives again.

Trivia

• Aera was the hardest character for Fanfictiondreamer to try to come up with a name for. At first, she was named Aria until she realized that there's a character in Mass Effect with that name, so she changed it to Aera, based off of her aerokinetic abilities.
• Fanfictiondreamer pulled some inspiration from Winx Club characters, Musa and Layla, for creating Aera.
• Aera's own no-nonsense demeanor is based off of Fanfictiondreamer's own knack for common sense. Aera can be easily frustrated from other's nonsensical demeanors and ways of thinking. Her snarkiness is also based off of Fanfictiondreamer's cheeky demeanor. However, Aera's own no-nonsense demeanor and impatience causes her to develop a dislike towards bad puns and running gags, to which is opposite of Fanfictiondreamer as she enjoys running gags and bad puns.
• Aera is one of 2 Fayelons who are left-handed. The other is Jewel.
• Unlike the other girls, Aera has had a few other Ideal Voice Actors for her. Fanfictiondreamer had picked out a few such as Keke Palmer, who provided the voice of Aisha (Layla) of the Winx Club Nickelodeon dubb, and Crystal Scales, another VA that Fanfictiondreamer liked. But she really wanted to go for that young woman but still sounds somewhat like a young child voice and remembered Novie Edwards. From there, she was able to remember the one that she thought would be a great fit for the character in her mind.
