<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: times new roman;"><strong>Team DMND - "Diamond"</strong></span></span><br/><hr/><br/><br/>Gorudo Daidouji (http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k512/MissF1R3/Daidouji7_zpskrn8th57.jpg)<br/><em>"Persevere and never fear."</em><br/>Her first name means 'gold'. The leader of Team DMND. Amongst the other first year students, Gorudo (commonly called 'Goro' or, simply, 'Go') is known as someone both dependable and honest. She abhors bullies and will often go out of her way to protect the smaller students. Which are all of them. Go is simply enormous, measuring six foot six and built like a brick wall, duct taped to ten other brick walls to form some kind of super wall. (http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k512/MissF1R3/Daidouji5_zpsqlmollsz.jpg) She's a terrible student and can often be found napping or missing classes. The only way she gets any passable grades in academics is with study help from her friends. Her weapon is 'Kusanagi', a kusarigama; a chain with a small sickle at one end and a weight at the other. Go's semblance allows her to bolster or unlock the aura of others.<br/><br/>Temujin Maki (http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k512/MissF1R3/Temujin3_zps3hhplxnf.jpg)<br/><em>"..."</em><br/>Last name meaning 'black pine'. Temujin is something of a mystery. She's missing her left eye, her right arm, and seems to have a bad left leg, causing her to limp everywhere. Everyone wonders how she made it through combat training at Signal. Behind her back some of the cruler students at Beacon call her 'cripple'. She's not exactly forthcoming with any answers either, as she only seems to talk to the members of her team and even then, generally only to Go. They seem to know each other from Signal. As a weapon, she uses an over-sized jitte (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jitte) with a wide gap between the boshin and the kagi. Powered by Dust, the jitte can also be used to send an electric charge to anything between the shafts. Temujin's semblance allows her to stop time for everyone but herself for five seconds, though the effort takes a bit out of her.<br/><br/>Nara Evergreen (http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k512/MissF1R3/FemaleNergal_zps4wrounfn.jpg)<br/><em>"Strength is not determined by physical prowess, but by your willingness to protect and care for others. Real strength comes from the good in your heart and soul. This, I believe."</em><br/>Intelligent and playful, Nara Evergreen is DMND's resident bookworm and study tutor. An excellent academic student and capable fighter, Nara seems to have born for the role of a Huntress. While not as strong or swift as her other teammates, she possesses a cunning tactical mind and bottomless determination to do what she believes is right. Friendly and always happy to meet new people, she's one of the more outspoken members of the group and usually the first one to say hello. She is one of the reasons why DMND is so well respected, even among the upper class students. As a weapon, Nara uses what she calls a 'battle yo-yo' named 'Atom Smasher'. The discs are hard enough to smash rock and dent steel when swung hard enough and the line is strong enough to resist heat and strong impacts. The weapon can be used to strike from a distance, bind an enemy, allow Nara to swing to higher places, and has extendable blades that allow for cutting attacks. Nara's semblance allows her to control shadows.<br/><br/>Yu Feng (http://s1113.photobucket.com/user/MissF1R3/media/ShanShihShen2_zpsvwghryuj.jpg.html)<br/><em>"Do you really think I could be bested by the likes of <strong>YOU?</strong> Don't make me laugh!"</em><br/>Dai Yu Feng ('jade wind') isn't the leader of Team DMND, but sometimes she acts like she is. The daughter of industrialist Yuan Feng and heiress to the Feng Firearms Fabrication company, Yu is a highly pampered and highly trained swordswoman. She has been groomed from childhood to be a Huntress and her father spared no expense to get her the best teachers and equipment that money could buy. Weather this was for her sake or for the image of his company is up to debate. Yu achieved astronomical scores in both combat training and academics at Signal, but she has a rough time working with others since she's not used to teamwork and taking orders. She's haughty and more than a bit rough around the edges, but there's a good heart in her somewhere. Yu's semblance is control over wind. Using this, she wields three katana at once; one in her hands and two controlled by her semblance. The resulting storm of deadly steel lets her carve up Grimm with astounding precision and speed, and defend from attacks in three directions at once.<br/><br/><br/>
