Appearance

Dodger Debray is a cat Faunus of an average height and slightly skinny. She dons orange-red hair that she usually keeps in a tight ponytail, and has purple eyes.

Her outfit consists of an ankle-length blue coat which she buttons from the waist up, leaving the very top unbuttoned. She wears black pants and black shoes and has a small silver gauntlet on her left arm for blocking small attacks. She keeps her weapon hidden under the coat when not in use. The coat splits into two tails at the back, giving space for her feline tail to show.

Personality

Dodger is a simple, fun-loving girl who likes to be around small groups of people. Believes that actions speak louder than words. Somewhat shy when first meeting someone, but quickly warms up to them. Usually has a soft smile on her face, only fading when angered or in deep concentration. Focuses more on work than on studies, because her debt to her parents makes her feel guilty. Thinks of her family quite often, but is scared to go back home. Usually keeps her hands in her coat pockets if not in use.

History

Dodger was born in the village of Nero, of Anima. Worked with her father on a family farm. Enjoyed the lifestyle of a farmer but was tired of being teased for being a farmer girl. She wanted to meet more people and see what cities were like, so she moved to Mistral at 12, which almost bankrupted her low-income family. She works as a shopkeeper selling her family's products in Mistral so she can pay back her move, and also help pay for her caretaker since she is still too young to survive on her own

Dodger was somewhat sheltered from the outside world at the farm. She had no care for news of the other continents or even the rest of Anima. She only cared about Nero. After moving to Mistral, her eyes were opened to many experiences she never knew existed. Dodger became fascinated with technology, as there were no Scrolls in her childhood. She decided to learn how to use the Scrolls and eventually computers to her advantage. After studying for 2 years, she finally figured out how to breach the security of a Scroll and extract data (given permission by a friend using an old Scroll) but does not plan on using this ability to hurt anyone that does not deserve it.

After a long day at work selling fruits and vegetables, Dodger was walking to her home. Passing by an alley, she saw an elderly man being robbed. Dodger grabbed a small pipe that was laying on the ground and rushed the attacker, swinging hard and hitting the robber's arm. The robber was a bit shocked but tried to hit Dodger with his knife. Dodger hit the knife with the pipe and knocked it out of the robber's hand, then slammed down hard with the pipe, breaking his right hand. The robber ran off, and the elderly man thanked her, not expecting a Huntress to save him. Dodger had never heard of the Huntsmen and Huntresses before this, so she asked about them. After being told, she decided she would try to help people in any way she could, so she enrolled at Sanctum Academy.

Dodger studied at Sanctum for 4 years. In that time, she constructed her weapon, Moonlight Malevolence. She learned hand-to-hand combat and ground-fighting. She trained in using Moonlight Malevolence, and very slightly in using Dust, not taking much of a liking to the latter.

Dodger hoped to someday go to the Vytal Festival to meet people from other kingdoms and continents, but she had little interest in fighting in the tournament. She did like watching the fights, though. During the 40th Vytal Tournament, Dodger never picked a team to root for. She just watched and was memorized by the amount of skill and grace the fighters would show off. That is, until everything went wrong. Seeing Yang Xiao Long fighting Mercury Black was quite a shock towards the end, and the outcome of Pyrrha Nikos vs. Penny Polendina made Dodger sick to her stomach.

However, Dodger stayed glued to the television, watching the news until the CCT fell and disrupted the broadcast. With long-range communications gone, Dodger has no contact with her family back in Nero. She will be attending Haven Academy, but for now, classes are on hold due to the Fall of Beacon.

Weapon

Type: Double-Barrel Nunchakama (DBNK)

Name: Moonlight Malevolence

Ammunition: 12-gauge shotgun shells (buckshot or slug)

Dodger uses the weapon Moonlight Malevolence for combat. She began constructing the weapon after being enrolled to Sanctum Academy, as she had only used generic weapons up until then, such as shotguns or farming equipment that could be used as a weapon. Moonlight Malevolence's primary form is two kama (Japanese farming tool similar to a sickle). The kama are blue at the handle, and silver at the blade.

There is a silver chain connected to the base of her right-hand kai and a loop on the base of the left-hand kai. Dodger can use this to connect the two kama, creating the secondary form of bladed nunchaku. Whether in primary or secondary form, the kama can combine next to each other, creating the tertiary form of a handheld double-barrel shotgun firing 12-gauge shells. Ammunition is loaded into the base of each kai, allowing two shots before reloading (one shot from each kai).

Dodger prefers physical combat over ranged combat, and even her ranged attacks are usually very limited by her shotgun. If needed, the shotgun can be used separately, but when combined the recoil is much easier to handle.

Dodger prefers to use conventional ammunition over Dust, due to being inexperienced with the latter; however, she will use Dust if she feels the situation calls for it. She has a small pouch inside her coat that contains two slug shells of each of the four "primary" Dust elements. She can fire two shells of different elements to create one of the secondary elements, at the cost of expending both shots at one time.

Focuses on light attacks and outlasting her opponent with defensive stamina. Trained in hand to hand combat so she uses her hands and legs to attack when she can.

Trivia

Dodger Blue was named after the color being used in the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball.

Moonlight Malevolence was named for the reason that since Dodger is a Faunus, she has good night vision.

(In reference to Moonlight Malevolence) You may notice that nowhere in Dodger's character does it say she is malevolent, and that is the point. Many RWBY characters see their weapon as an extension of themselves, but Dodger sees her weapon as a separate entity from herself, with its own "personality."
