Basic Talents

Boost - Once a round, Aino can add a die of Overcharge to any magical challenge action, increasing the likelihood of success, but also increasing the likelihood of Fallout once the battle is over.

Recovery - Twice per general episode when out of combat, Aino can summon up the power deep within herself to recover 1d6+2 Resolve.

General Talents

Karmic Fear (Inflict) - Opening the Necronomicon and showing it to her target, Aino can force it to confront either a horrifying sight or revelation, or an experience of the fear and misery it inflicted. Whatever it is, is has very noticeable effects on the target. After making a successful attack and at the cost of 1 Fury Overcharge, Aino can, once per scene, apply the Bound, Bleeding, or Stunned status to the target of that attack.

Witch Talents

Creeping Horror (Hex) - On creatures that do not feel fear like humans, Aino can nonetheless turn back on them the fear they've inflicted. Once per round as a minor action, she can put this curse upon a youma or other enemy within a range of 0-2, which does one point of damage to them every round. On subsequent rounds, she can use another minor action to strengthen the curse and make it do more damage per round that it is active. As a free action, Aino can either weaken the hex or remove it entirely.

Traumatophobia Seal (Amplify Magic) - Casting this spell puts a seal on a target, having a metaphysical and not necessarily conscious effect on one's fear of injuries. Put simply, her allies recover better from their wounds, while her enemies see damage caused by Creeping Horror aggravated.

An enemy takes double the normal damage from Hexes placed on it by Aino. An ally gains an additional 2 points of healing from any healing effect they receive. This effect lasts until the end of the scene or the target drops to zero Resolve

Terror Implosion (Magic Detonation) - Fear can build up like steam inside somebody or something, and be made to burst with only a little magic. At the price of 1 Fury Overcharge, Aino can make a basic attack; instead of the usual damage, the target takes damage equal to the amount of Overcharge (or Magic Overcharge if it’s a magical girl) they currently have.

Background

Aino's life had been mostly uneventful until last year. First, her parents became cold with each other, growing more and more silent over the days. Then, they burst, and started arguing and yelling for petty reasons. The fights got increasingly more violent and exhausting for everyone, including their only daughter, witnessing their every shouting match.

Finally, some time ago, they sat with Aino and declared their intention to divorce. Alas, this was the only explanation she was directly provided; her mother and father were a lot more focused on accusing each other than comforting their daughter. In fact, they've been so caught up in their conflict they all but forgot their child.

Aino started cooking for herself, as her mother refused to cook for a man she accused of cheating on her, and her father would rather eat take-away for the same reason, but never thinking about bringing something back home for the girl too. She would work harder and harder at school, aiming for the best grades and approval from the adults around her, but her parents hardly paid any notice, even though she'd spend a lot more time studying than reasonable. Though they've talked about divorce, the Onigasawa couple has hardly gotten anywhere; they're fighting about who should get the apartment, who should get the furniture, the money, the daughter, the fish, about who cheated on the other first, about who's the most despicable human being. Aino has heard a startling amount of accusations and insults coming from them.

Recently, they've acknowledged their daughter again, but only in order to try and manipulate her against accusing the other parent of something, anything. Aino is not playing along, but she does feel lonely. Fortunately, Aino can make a wish and help save the world in the process. She doesn't care who wronged whom; she just wants the three of them to be a family again.

Relationships

Misugi Shizuo (Level 3) - Shizuo is Haruka's father. He works at a steakhouse as one of the chefs, and has a particular love for teppanyaki. Before her tsukaima came to her, Haruka had an interest in following in her father's footsteps, and even now, she knows how to cook a mean teriyaki. While Haruka loves her father dearly, both of them miss her mother badly, and it doesn't help that Haruka has two secrets to keep in the form of both her and her mother being Mahou Shoujo.

Amano Mika and Ayumi/Astronomy Club (Level 2) - Amano Mika is Haruka's best friend in the astronomy club. Mika and Haruka love tracking constellations and observing the movements of the sun and the moon. Mika's little sister, Ayumi, is in middle school, and often comes to see her big sister after class.

Hanagawa Yuu (Level 2) - Yuu is a good friend to have, and a solid ally to have against the youma, but their outlooks couldn't be more different. Haruka has a more realistic assessment of her mortality and that of the others than Yuu seems to have (having a missing mom who was once a Mahou Shoujo will do that to you) and thus stresses the importance of staying alive. During those occasions when Yuu gets in over her head, Haruka will be the first to pull her out of the fire or otherwise offer help.

Mizuno Ami (Level 2) - Another fellow mahou shoujo, Ami is one of those sweet-natured girls that Haruka likes being around and who she's just a little bit protective of, particularly since she doesn't have any place to call home other than the orphanage, which puts her in mind of her missing mom and her still-alive dad. She doesn't know about Ami's ties to the Kogoshisasorikai as of yet, but everything that she knows about Yakuza in general marks them as Bad News.

Onigawa Aino (Level 2) - Haruka primarily knows Aino as one of the younger members of the Astronomy Club, and as one of the spookier members of her general team with some rather eldritch powers. Sometimes they like to compare notes about magic with each other when they're not doing their stargazing, though both of them tend to get a bit quiet when the subject of their respective missing parents comes up. Both of them are holding out at least some hope that they are still alive and all right, but at the moment, things aren't looking too good.

Midorikawa Eri (Level 1) - Eri is the resident big sister among the group, and as far as she knows, the other orphan among them aside from Ami. Haruka worries about Eri having to raise her little sister all by her lonesome with her father gone, and wishes that she could do something to help her.

Shirayuki Hikari (Level 1) - Hikari is a fellow mahou shoujo, and the other girl besides Haruka herself who wields light powers. She's also the most serious-minded of the group, even more so than Haruka herself is. She doesn't know much about her aside from this, unfortunately.
