Nadir Shiko-

Age: 17

Aura Color: Pink

Weapon: Jūryoku: (assault rifle/sword)

Personality/History: The final member of the team, Nadir, also happens to be their greatest weapon. Today, he may be a capable fighter, valuable teammate, and friend. But that wasn't always like that.

Nadir was born to a family with Semblances that all share a common theme of launching or moving things. Or themself upwards in the air. But for Nadir, it did the opposite. He can push objects away from him or down into the ground and keep doing it to the point of turning them into pancakes. Due to this, some of his family (Especially his older sister Zenith and brother Apex) point it out to him, and people who know his family compare him to them. This constant comparison unintentionally made him develop low self-esteem. He also became very self-conscious of his Semblance for a good while. Even to the point of him just not using it at all.

That all changed when he came to Haven Academy to become a huntsman. There he met the adventurous Sun Wukong and his partner Neptune Vasilias, but most of all met a trio of friends that would become his team. Despite feeling like the odd man out with them, they taught him that he was more than his Semblance and helped him find his place in the world. But don't compare him to his family. He's still a little self-conscious about that.

Hobbies: Crushing Cans, Art, and chilling with friends.

Semblance: "Point Below" Nadir can create a small gravity well around whatever he chooses to do. At first, Nadir thought all he could do was pin them to the ground or any surface, crushing them if he had no choice. But with training and helpful advice from his team and teachers. He learned that he could create wells in any direction as long as they were away from him and hold things in the air with full concentration. But still unable to move things up. He found a counter by creating a well beneath whatever he thinks of and propelling it upwards without actually affecting its gravity. (I made this Semblance up myself. It comes from the literal definition of 'Nadir," which is the lowest point of anything.)

RWBY Emblem: Two swords and a crown


Author's note:

For Nadir, I liked the idea of a character who dealt with insecurities about their powers and moving on and becoming a great fighter.
