Banafsaj Safi


 

No gods, only fools.

- Common phrase among PARMA members

 

 

A woman capable of compassion and violence in equally extreme amounts.

 

She is a soldier belonging to a mysterious organization, only known as PARMA, who exists beyond known dimensions. This organization fights similar groups for crystals that are the key component in establishing utopias free of sentient beings’ atrocities in the Ascendancy War. It was these atrocities Banafsaj bore witness to throughout the entirety of her childhood. When discovered to be an anomaly capable of unique dimensional travel, she left that existence behind in favor of one void of such brutality.

Proceeding a successful incursion on the Crossroads, surviving soldiers of PARMA were mercifully captured by the God Eater. She has offered to release a group of ten early so long as Banafsaj emerges victorious from the Summer Leagues Tournament. Any other wishes would be rendered useless due to the dissonance between the dimensions she travels to and the God-Eater’s domain. Despite a lack of personal incentive, Banafsaj remains ready to tear herself apart at the seams to win.

Combat

Abilities


Anomalous Origin

Anomalies are unique sentient beings characterized by their innate ability to traverse and analyze the multiverse without the use of specialized equipment. With interdimensional portals being incredibly costly and time-consuming, anomalies compose the main fighting forces of those competing in the Ascendancy War as the only beings able to efficiently traverse the multiverse. Anomalies have a series of special abilities that assist their traversal.

This ability is the only one that will see frequent usage and be relevant to other entries.

  • Multidimensional "Encyclopedia" - Anomalies can "read" the fabric that composes dimensions to gain an encyclopedia-like summary of important information regarding any dimension in the multiverse.
    • For this (and any) tournament, they can read any OC document or entry tied to the tournament and its relevant characters. Information that is not mentioned on these documents they will be unaware of. Anomalies can be unaware of certain details by a creator's request.

The following abilities are unlikely to be relevant, but there is a chance they may be.

  • Multidimensional Travel - Anomalies can travel to any adjacent dimension, although it is an extremely lengthy process. Chiifu has stopped travel outside of her dimension.
    • For this tournament, this ability will see no usage unless Banfsaj visits another soldier in one of the God-Eater's parallel dimensions if the deity allows it.
  • Anomalous Telepathy - Anomalies can speak telepathically to one another or to those using specialized equipment.
    • For this tournament, they are perfectly closed and are only relevant outside of combat if Banafsaj wishes to offer/receive advice or talk with fellow Organization members.
  • Restricted Lifespan - Once Banafsaj reaches maturity and develops her anomalous abilities, her physique will perpetually remain at that of a young adult, and her lifespan will be at most 200 years. 

Enhanced Soldier

To ensure all species can go toe-to-toe with any challenge the multiverse hands them, anomalous soldiers are given incredibly powerful enhancements that combine magical, technological, and biological systems. The product is a being with enhanced capabilities, both physical and mental.

  • Greatly Improved Mental Dexterity and Resilience - Banafsaj's mental ability was already adept, being a human, but it was only further improved through her enhancements. She is not a genius, but tasks like handling stress, making rapid evaluations of options, and noticing details are incredibly easy for her. Outsmarting the enhanced is always possible, just difficult.
  • Greatly Improved Bodily Reflexes and Speed - When it comes to combat, few tools are as valuable as speed in offensive and defensive scenarios. Banafsaj can exceed the speed and reaction time of martial fighters (ex: Rakurai) along with the ability to rapidly scale vertical surfaces. Speed-focused fighters (ex: Rat King) are still likely to outpace her.
  • Somewhat Improved Bodily Strength - Banafsaj's physical strength is still superhuman compared to her species' weak physique, but not by a large margin. She can only match weaker combatants' bodily strength and will easily crumple to martial fighters if her attacks end up blocked or challenged.

Fighting Style


Overview

Style: Adaptable Alpha Strike

Banfsaj is a soldier, not a gladiator. Her profession emphasizes minimizing risk just as much as it does eliminating targets and this shows in her fighting style. In solo engagements, Banafsaj leverages her massive arsenal and innate of the opponent to select equipment that can quickly shut down an opponent's offense before finishing with a burst of damage at a safe distance. If push comes to shove and her initial offense is too risky or negated, she will use her agility and utility to stall whilst chipping away at the opponent, looking for another opportunity to interrupt and burst the adversary down.

Strengths

  • Hyper-flexible offense - Banafsaj has access to equipment developed using the combined logic systems of hundreds of dimensions. Her weapons deal a great deal of damage, can work at a variety of ranges, and come in many forms from firearms to martial weapons, even magical tomes. If an opponent has a specific type of defense, Banafsaj can select ammunition, trims, spells, or other devices to breach them with ease. She may select corrosive ammunition for armored opponents, or grenades filled with fast-spreading diseases against organic ones. 
  • Potent control options for any opposition - The equipment Banfsaj utilizes is just as important in locking down her opponents as it is in inflicting large bursts of damage against them. The aforementioned customization options among her weapons such as ammunition and trims can be geared towards controlling opponents. Concussive grenades can shut down a martial opponent's offense, while anti-magic ammunition can stop the spells of a magic user.
  • Mentally and physically agile - Banfsaj's mental enhancements give her a nearly unrivaled response speed compared to competitors in the Summer Leagues. Her physical enhancements have a similar effect too. They give Banfsaj the necessary speed and dexterity to kite opponents in melee or at any range.
  • Tactically deft, trained in all fields of warfare - Although her equipment and enhancements are uniquely powerful among the Summer League's competitors, Banfsaj's greatest strength is her professional experience in warfare. As a multi-dimensional operative, Banfsaj has access to over a decade of training that is the culmination of the military history and minds of dozens of dimensions. Banfsaj is still a relatively new operative, only having served for a few years on the front lines. Nevertheless, her experience from that period has proved invaluable in solidifying her training. In any combat scenario, she can be expected to give rational, efficient responses to challenges that oppose victory without error. Strategies are multilayered, with any defensive or offensive maneuver crafted around exploitable weaknesses with fallback options in case of the unexpected.

Weaknesses

  • Exceptionally fragile - For all her enh
  • Mediocre bodily strength
  • Equipment switch time
  • Out of her element
