Abilities: Rahzel is a user of magic. She was born with this power and it’s only increased since being kidnapped and drugged in volume three. She can create balls of energy to hurl at foes, can use the elements at her disposal, hurl wind back at a ghost, make water do her whims, and can generate fire. Though it’s used in a joking manner, it’s implied that since she’s a ‘witch’ she can at least levitate her body for short periods of time (But she probably can’t actually fly. At this point). She can create forcefields around people with air and use them to defend as long as she can keep it up. She has also been shown (exactly one chapter following the point in canon I'm taking her from) knowing traditional spells by word of mouth.
There are some magics that just don’t work. Her father described magic as “only being able to control of what we can see with our own eyes.” Her magic will not take her traveling through space time, can not bring back the dead, and can not control other people’s minds. Also, as far as healing goes, there hasn’t to my knowledge been a time in which she’s used healing magic on someone else’s wounds, let alone her own.
Since being drugged in volume three her powers have increased. Though past the point in canon she’s taken from (literally one chapter) she’s shown to be able to chant a spell in order to trick the enemy and then complete an entirely different spell at the same time. That new ability didn’t just happen overnight and has been increasing since being drugged, as such Rahzel obviously knew she could pull that off and had been practicing up to the point in canon I take her from. (This drug, Angel text, was supposed to make people into Angels and this man was put up to using it by Rahzel’s future nemesis and Guy Who Saved Her Life (Kiara). But in the end, instead of taking Rahzel's body like the minion had thought he was allowed, Kiara double crossed and killed him. In normal humans whose bodies rejected the drug, because the drug made them gain too many blood cells eventually they quite literally exploded into many parts.)
Rahzel is incredibly intelligent, well read and sharply strategic, able to do multiplication when she was five years old the day after being shown addition for the first time. As she grew her father gave her the knowledge to continue her growth, and she’s shown very quick thinking, especially with chemistry (when being pursued by enemies and barricading herself in a celler, she knew how to make a dust explosion in a pinch). Her father put her through multiple rounds of survival training in order for her not to be overly dependent on her magic so she could survive in a pinch. (As in, he took her up a mountain, handed her a knife and told her to get down by herself without using magic or else he'd hang himself). Even when her friends have been at the crosshairs she can coolly make a plan and fire off wisecracks along with her magical attacks.
Furthermore, she can most definitely take bodily harm. Despite her size and being a young girl, she can take a beating and can dole it out just as well, even without magic to back up her strength. Now, her stamina is ruled by her sheer will and naturally normal things like exhaustion isn’t beyond her (as it’s pointed out very early in canon: her companions are grown men who trained in the military and she’s just a girl, no matter how much survival training she’s had; it takes a lot for her to keep up with them. But she’s gotten better at it) Getting punched by a villain is no skin off her nose, and she even seems satisfied by the actions if it means egging her foes on and making them lose control by striking her. Her pain threshold, or at least her ability to cast it aside in a crisis, is remarkable as well: this girl dislocated her own wrist in order to get out of handcuffs and go save a little boy. Just bandaged the wound and went on her way like a pro. Other: •She wants muscles more than anything. •She has a burning need to nickname people. •Her birthday is (according to volume 8) March 21st, making her an Aries. •She is 152cm which is….4’9? •Her sense of direction is terrible. Incredibly horrible, as in she gets her trio lost every single time she’s in charge of a map and often goes missing in new towns. •She has a teddy bear bag that seems to be a black hole. No, really, the girl has packed up a full picnic lunch in there with no problem and pulled various torture devices and weapons from the bag. Since none of the trio are seen boggled down with luggage it’s safe to assume that’s where their other things are stored as well. •Things like spirits and magic users aren’t uncommon in her world, and people aren’t surprised or astounded when they discover her abilities. Ghosts seem to keep the fear factor but spirits of the departed and magic isn’t unusual. •The modes of transportation in her world seem to be just horse drawn carriages/buggies or boats. Or feet, of course. There are no cars or cellular phones, and no computers that I’ve ever noticed. However some of the cultural references that she or the others have would call for...at least a tv. So it can be written off as 4th wall. •She has a bit of a father complex....her relationship with older men in general is very complex •Remember when it was mentioned she was drugged and kidnapped? She was also psychologically screwed with and a part of her memory ("someone that I love") was taken from her. Thus far she hasn't been triggered after her experience and gets confused and frustrated when she tries to remember who it is she was made to forget. •She can't swim very well and almost drowned on her first try because she didn't tell anyone!!! Because she wanted to be cool!!!
Third Person: She was powerless. Literally and figuratively her wings had been clipped and once again Rahzel had been tossed head first into a situation way over her head. One that boisterous, smug declarations or her comrades longer legs couldn't get her out of. Not even Baroqueheat’s special ability (human shield) could help her here. And she wasn’t the only one involved. There were actual families pulled into this, it made her stomach flip and toss somewhere along her ribcage at the thought, real people forced to live their lives like this and, as thankful as she was to have someplace to stay and food to eat…she felt (as always, always, always) like she had to do something. But there were no villains heads to kick in and banter at until those responsible cower at her awesome might and beg for a ceasefire. No puzzles to figure out, no townspeople to sooth. To children to usher to their mothers.
Even as she stood, contemplating the last few days within this new world, washing dishes like a good little daughter, she felt utterly and completely helpless. Alone all over again, left by her companions, the only thing missing was a circle drawn in the sod, a forest backdrop, a hand she let go of and her chest squeezed, throat tightening- Her small, delicate fingers furiously scrubbed at a particularly stubborn spot of dried food on the plate at hand, throwing that thought to the wind with a dizzying shake of her head, dark curls swishing across her back.
“Nonono, this time is nothing like that! I’ve just been kidnapped again, that’s all. It happens every week; I’m just too irresistible and cute! I’m not alone. I have a family here, surely they can’t resist my charms. I’ll just hold on to them and not let go, not even if they beg. We’ll get out together. I’ll make friends. Allies. And we’ll get out of here.” Things were way different now. She was older and wiser and belonged to no one. Not to mention a better dresser by far.
She’d make due, surely. The girl with the magic touch and the stunning blue eyes always did, no matter what path she chose. Eventually she’d see her precious friends, her cherished family again. Their paths were destined to cross and had been (and always would be) ever since laying eyes on each other. “Hell yeah, I’ve got this!” Now if only this grease stain would come out. What, did they not believe in extra strength soap anymore?
