Name: Nina Ecarlate
Canon: Original (Memories of the Hellhound)
OU/AU/CRAU/OC: OC
World info:
It's one of those worlds much like ours, except that some people have started recalling memories from past lives and gaining things from those past lives such as abilities, physical features, and objects. All this is because some guy stumbled upon an excessively rare crack in reality and figured out how to exploit it, then used it to facilitate his wish for a more exciting world. Now monsters and other unnatural hazards from those past lives are starting to show up and the asshole is having the time of his life.
However, reality and the planet itself is beginning to fight back by employing the Recallers, the ones with past lives, as well as calling into existence its own creatures to prune down the unnatural threats.
History:
Past:
- Imagine a whimsical setting with candy cotton sinkholes, meat forests, and the like. In that world, the Evillands were areas full of evil energy to the point where it could corrupt the inhabitants, for example turning dog into hellhounds.
- An experimental to create a pacified hellhound accidentally created a powerful hellhound/human hybrid called Momo who combined the worst impulses of hellhounds and humans.
- Momo proceeded to take over every hellhound pack in sight, mustering a huge army that she led to terrorize the world.
- However, an anti-Momo alliance formed and after an exhausting war, finally managed to kill her by hounding her into a candy cotton swamp where she fell victim to a trap and drowned in candy cotton.
- Momo was reborn as Nina Ecarlate to a wealthy family in a new world (the one described in the world info).
- Nina turned out to have sadistic tendencies as a child. I won't describe what she did to a poor squirrel. However, that resulted in her alarmed parents putting her into therapy.
- Nina grew up seemingly more well-adjusted after that. But really that was more her deciding to pretend to be nice because it made people like her more.
- Working hard, Nina became one of the popular girls in school--good at academics, sports, pretty, and likable. Also a model and an actor. All this to get praise. At home she'd relax with some gory media including violent video games.
- Now a teenager, Nina's life was derailed when she got a memory of a city burning with green hellfire and woke up with dog ears and a tail.
- Soon after, she learned of others like her, the Recallers, and saw the shared hall all of them could be transported to at will.
- She gained more memories and traits like firebreathing and freakish strength.
Future:
- Nina attends a party held by other Recallers which is attacked by monsters. In that chaotic moments, she gains memories of battle and the combat skills her predecessor had. Also she cuts loose on the monsters and finds a new pleasure in killing acceptable targets.
- More monster incidents follow with Nina joining a strike force of Recallers who hunts down the monsters as they turn up.
- Also a group of Recallers fancying themselves supervillains attempt to recruit Nina. She pretends to join them and soon after betrays them to the other Recallers, resulting in the destruction of the group and the capture or death of most of its members.
- The number of incidents increase and entities calling themselves the emissaries of the planet show up.
- The emissaries point the Recallers at spots of high concentrations of unnatural energy.
- When some of the Recallers head to those points, the originator of the change in the world that led to the Recallers and the monsters activates the energy nexuses, creating massive monsters.
- After simultaneous ferocious battles across the world at the different nexuses, Recaller strike teams heading into the rifts formed by the titanic monsters' deaths.
- The teams from different nations and continents all end up at the lair of the originator. A battle starts against him that rapidly began seeming impossible, as the originator displays an endless array of abilities, fending off the teams' attacks while laying low many of them.
- Then Nina, who like the others in the strike teams had been buffed to the gills by their supporter members, used her powerful jaws to rip out the originator's throat despite having lost both arms during the fight.
- This weakened the originator enough for the strike teams to reduce him to a bloody pulp. Then when said bloody pulp kept trying to regenerate, they stationed rotating shifts to keep damaging the originator until he ran out of energy to regenerate with.
- Nina makes a full recovery with the help of her own regeneration and the healer Recallers. She gets a medal and is extremely happy about it.
Canon point: A month before the eventful party that was attacked by monsters.
Age: 16
Personality:
TL;DR a shitty person trying to be good for social points.
- She's capable of being surprisingly smart and careful. It's how she's managed to live within society despite her more unfortunate personality traits. She's lived a masquerade for most of her life, pretending she's like other people and feel the same things they do, and has managed it with few cracks showing. But at the same time she thinks she's more smart than she is.
- When she wants something enough, she can be quite driven and patient in getting it. She worked hard to develop her modeling career and was in the middle of breaking into acting. Likewise, she works hard to give a good impression to others, because she enjoys positive attention. This is one of the reasons she has good grades.
- If she likes someone enough (which is a definite if), she can be very loyal to them. Sometimes to a fault, but this is overall more positive than negative. She will absolutely stand by the few people she cares about... and do things like beat up their bullies. I did say loyal to a fault. That said, she'll be rather friendly and helpful to someone she likes enough.
- Nina lacks any ability to feel emotions like remorse or guilt. Similarly, she has no innate sense of right or wrong. This doesn't mean that she doesn't think morals are a good thing--she recognizes the value of the social contact. But any understanding of morality she has is purely intellectual. Which can be a problem when she doesn't or can't stop to think things through.
- She takes pleasure in other people's suffering. She largely keeps this under lids because she recognizes it as a very antisocial response that others won't appreciate. Most of her indulgence in this area takes the form of tormenting other players in multiplayer games and enjoying gory media and video games. But every now and then that self-control slips a little.
- Her LGBT identity is important to her. She identifies as a lesbian transgender girl. Let's just say she was glad about certain aspects of her bodily changes from becoming physically more like her past life self. She's pretty open about herself and attends some Pride events.
- She's a glutton for love and attention. On the one hand, this is partially responsible for her playing within society's rules. On the other, she's vain, spoiled, and highly susceptible to flattery. She's far more likely to do something if it'll win her praise--in fact, this is the primary motivation for her volunteer activities, charity donations, and other outward appearances of kindness. Likewise her motivation for academic excellence is partly the praise she gets and partly the ability to feel superior about it.
Character changes:
Nina's underlying personality issues are very unlikely to change but she might become somewhat better at managing them. Also the aid of the network's members might make some situations go more smoothly, like her not losing her arms in the final battle.
Capabilities:
All those abilities have some room to grow as they get stronger the more Nina uses them and the more memories involving said abilities she gains.
Fire Affinity: Nina is highly resistant to fire and heat, to the point where she can rest her hand on a hot stove-top or lie down in a bonfire without feeling discomfort. Additionally, she has flame manipulation, being able to create, move, and extinguish fires. And she can breath out fire hellhound style. Any flame created or manipulated by her is bright pink.
Ruler's Aura: Momo could intimidate others with her presence alone, especially commanding obedience from canines which is how she managed to muster a large hellhound army. Nina shares that capability to a lower degree.
Hellhound Physique: Nina is stronger and tougher than she looks--she currently has the strength to easily lift a motorcycle and is generally better able to withstand injuries. Her jaws and teeth are especially powerful, having the strength to crush bones at present. She also has an iron stomach, but she avoids eating weird or icky things anyways.
Hellhound Senses: Additionally, she has the keen hearing and sense of smell of a dog. Dogs' senses of smell, especially, can gather so much information about another creature's previous activities that I'll have a part on her permissions post just for this. Oh yeah, she can smell magic, too. Those sense abilities're already at their maturation and won't grow further.
Combat Aptitude: This is not an ability she has currently, but once the fated party happens, she'll get memories of combat and some of the sheer formidable combat skill her predecessor had.

I'll be sure to include CWs for stuff like animal harm and graphic violence if it comes up.
