Editing Lucy Ellingson (section)

==Abilities and Art==
In addition to the shared abilities and gear of the [[Kennet Trio]], Lucy has her own distinctive [[Second Sight]]. She can see watercolour-esque "stains" and blades piercing things which seem to indicate danger, pain, negative emotions, or harm. It can also help her see stained outlines through smoke, darkness etc.<ref>With the Sight on, she could see the drama, the watercolor stain spreading out into the air and sometimes turning fluorescent, glowing brightly or reflecting the flames.  The darkness was deeper, and faces white. She could see the blades impaling people.<br>Two guys and three girls were sitting on the side of the hill, barely any illumination around them, and the stain that spread around them was colorful, taking on vague shapes like faces.  The blades that had been digging into them before were now pulling away, drifting like they were underwater and swords could float.  They looked up at the night sky, and because they were on the hillside that wasn’t directly facing Kennet, there wasn’t a lot of light pollution to block off the view of the stars.  Even the milky way was visible high above.  Lucy had to turn off her Sight to see it, before she turned it back on.<br>[...]<br>Lucy’s eyes stung with the smoke from the cabin.  She used the Sight, and saw silhouettes like black stains against the smoke, throwing water on the couch that was over the couch. <br>[...]<br>Her Sight helped identify stains where the tree branches could scratch and the especially brambly bushes and weeds were.<br>[...]<br>To Lucy’s sight, the black cat mask was white, the white rim around the eye sockets like smudged blood.  The stain at Melissa’s foot was black in a way that made the gloom around it seem pale, threads reaching up and into her body, where the threads of stain transfixed her heart, the slashes that extended out like blades unto themselves.<br>[...]<br>As the light faded, she used her Sight to scan the surroundings, judging the slopes-<br><br>And saw Guilherme, stained a deep green-blue, approaching from the shadows.  He was in his boy form, shirtless, his only real clothing like a kilt worn over leather pants, and he had a weapon.  A long spear. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/08/25 Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.3]]</ref> Lucy describes her Sight: "I see violence, or the effects of it, or negativity, sickness, badness. I see swords to represent wounds, with things tied to the handles, like ribbons, for the connections those wounds draw out."<ref>Cited from [[Playing a Part 15.9]].</ref>

Fox-like actions and quirks are easy to come by for Lucy such as concealment. During her implement ritual smoke became codified as an element of association to Lucy, leaving her as better able to breath, navigate, create, hide and generally make proficient use of it as a tool in her practice such as throwing her voice through smoke or crafting illusions out of smoke. Whenever she enacts her version of the [[Runes#Duelist|dualist's arena]] its aesthetic boundaries are defined with a ring of smoke.

Through her propensity for accusations around the moral failings of others Lucy is a prolific user of [[curse]]s with a heavy bent towards being karmically righteous variety and her use of them use elevates her into a minor arbiter of justice. After receiving her Implement any diagrams Lucy draws are automatically elaborated upon with complicated flourishes, making simple diagrams impossible for her but some more complex and powerful magics easier.

She later looked into [[Law Magus|Law magic]].<!--after Abreham mixed up things--> 
===Tactics===
She's also been receiving one-on-one lessons in combat from [[Guilherme]] as his gift to her which elevates her skill in combat generally and formalized single combat in particular. This continued even after he "fell" to winter which changed the training somewhat. [[Bubbleyum]] added her own training as well,<ref>''Don’t panic.  ''Guilherme’s lesson.<br><br>''Panic effectively''.  Bubbleyum’s. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/06/28 Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.10]]</ref><ref name=wr7>Guilherme had always been a striker. Any time he was in position to grab, he’d be in position to take her out in a single blow… so why bother dealing with the multi-part process of grabbing her and figuring out what to do with her after?<br><br>It was Bubbleyum who’d gotten into the training with grabs and stuff. Hands reached for Lucy, and she punched out, meeting reaching fingers with blunt force-<br><br>A woman, a grown man, and a teenager came at Lucy from three directions. Lucy applied a principle she’d learned with use of the weapon ring against Guilherme in their earlier sparring, back in the spring and very early summer. There, she’d used the weapon ring, meeting the furthest targets with whip, then switching her weapon to the spear as they got a few steps closer, then switching to a blade, then something shorter range- always enough that the enemy had to walk into a waiting weapon swing if they wanted to close the distance.<br><br>Here, as fingers reached for her, she punched, connecting knuckle to finger. As she focused on one set of hands, others got closer- so she met them with elbow.<br><br>And then forehead, for the last set. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/12/17 Excerpt] from [[Hard Pass 22.3]]</ref> including a "charm" to help her heal from minor injuries.<ref>“Ah, but the cold can give you frostbite. You’re protected by your attire. You’re protected from the little cuts and scrapes by the charm Bubbleyum taught you.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/05/31/crossed-with-silver-19-2/ Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.2]]</ref> With further training by John and other [[Dogs of War]],<ref>Lucy wore a red jacket, military style, her earring caught the light, dog tags were out from beneath her top.  Faerie trained, goblin trained, Dog of War trained.  She talked with Anthem, who was in Kennet found.  That was… pretty spooky.  She’d fought Anthem and managed.  She’d gone after Joel the dragonslayer and some of the boys.  Now Joel was out sick, too hurt to go to the Abyss, and he’d be out of commission until Maricica came up to visit him directly.  It hadn’t been obvious, but Dony had apparently cut fingers to the bone trying to hold onto some dragonslayer weapon when she’d disarmed him.  There was the bruise, black eye, sore ribs…<br><br>She was annoyed all over again, thinking about it.  That they hadn’t gone to their goddess of glory and blood to get healed.  ''They had a goddess on tap,'' God damn it.<br>[...]Verona would be annoying, but Lucy…<br><br>That earring was apparently her implement. Her declaration to the world about what she was about. She listened. She caught things.<br><br>Kira-Lynn didn’t want to get caught here. She had work to do. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/09/25 Excerpt] from [[Let Slip 20.f]]</ref> is part of the reason she called herself a Trifold Duelist. She also trained with [[Anthem]].

She has taken to using the trio's training in [[glamour]] to shrink down her magical gear into images that she can store in a locket and has taken. She also makes [[glamour]]ed-up fox decoys, hiding herself among them in a metaphysical [[Wikipedia:Shell game|Shell game]]. Latter she hid effects and allys within the foxes.
===Basics===
* [[Implement]] is the [[Eavesdropper's Earring]], accepted from [[Verona]] and [[Avery]] who constructed and donated the materials.<ref>As Lucy had signed the far side of the line, this other her had signed her side.<br><br>:''Eavesdropper’s Earring, Implement of Lucille Desiree Ellingson.'' - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/11/17 Excerpt] from [[Cutting Class 6.7]]</ref>

===Tools===
She generally keeps the [[Weapon Ring]] which [[Miss]] gifted her, she developed many techniques to use the weapons it gives her.<ref name=wr7/> the trio, and often the elementally-charged lead [[John Stiles]] gave them to power it.

After the contest for the Carmine's throne she gained [[John Stiles|John's]] dog tag, guitar and [[Yalda|Yalda's]] ring.<ref>Going home, a battered old guitar with new strings slung around her back, a dog tag she’d never throw to the ground at her neck, in the company of his Songbird.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/10/24/fall-out-14-6/ Excerpt] from [[Fall Out 14.6]]</ref>
