Abilities and Equipment

Abilities

• General Spell Casting- Torrent is a fairly competent magic user all things considered, who knows a variety of spells outside of her specialization with the help of her grandfather's teachings. The spells range from offensive to defensive, and cover areas in between as well. While she has experience in a variety of fields from her teachings, the spells themselves aren't quite as powerful as her water-based magic and control. As such, she has general knowledge to aid her in a more supportive sense when she does not have ready access to water, and needs to perform an action. Relying on minor cantrips and other things to escape combat if need be.

• Water Control- Torrent was primarily taught how to control water via magic from her grandfather throughout her childhood. Her grandfather was primarily specialized in this type, and spread his knowledge to his granddaughter so she could carry on his legacy. With Torrent having nearly limitless control over water, and its characteristics, she can perform nearly any action she needs as long as she has a source - like her cup. While she isn't as powerful a user as her grandfather was, she can still use water to great effect. She's able to form and hold any shape using water if she's able to keep concentration, and control the temperature of it to boil or flash freeze if needed. Such as forming a blade and freezing it to deadly effect. Mainly she uses water to crash into people, forcing them around with the brunt of it.
  • Water Breathing/Affinity- Torrent is capable of breathing underwater by forming a bubble around her head and swimming at enhanced speeds by propelling herself around inside a body of water.

Equipment

• Engraved Silver Cup- A gift from her grandfather after his passing (along with a lot of other junk). This silver cup is engraved with strange markings and runes. Channeling into the cup lights the engravings with a bright blue light, and can draw out a nearly infinite amount of water from another plane. Highly effective for a person with abilities like Torrent. She carries the cup with her nearly everywhere.

• Mask of Tides- Another gift, this mask allows the user to see bodies of water by channeling through it. While it doesn't sound impressive, it allows Torrent to see water or liquids through the environment or in dark places/etc.

• Breastplate- Really the only means of armor that Torrent possesses. The breastplate isn't really magical or special in any sense. It's a remake of her grandfather's breastplate that he used to wear, but fitted to her size. It's made out of pretty basic components, with engravings on them matching those on the cup she wields. It can withstand a bullet or two though, so that's something at least.

• Vials- Torrent carries around a few vials filled with water on her at just about any given time really. The vials are used when she does not have her cup near her to draw water from. The vials act as an emergency water source. A lot more limited in volume than her cup, however.

Weaknesses

• No Teacher- Torrent's grandfather has passed on. He was serving as her mentor, and Torrent doesn't have much experience in fighting without him by her side. She lacks a lot of experience in combat.

• No Water?- Her mask, vials, and cup all help get around one obstacle: water isn't entirely everywhere. With no water around to control, Torrent's abilities are severely limited and diminished, leaving her pretty vulnerable. She knows some spells to aid in case of emergency, but they only go so far.

• Fist Fight- Torrent doesn't have much combat experience without her teacher being there. She has even less experience when engaging someone head on. She tries to maintain a distance since she has no experience fighting someone martially.
