I said I'd keep the adept limit at 7 before... However, Luminous Avenger iX's imminent arrival this month, as well as my hype for it... Made me want to make 7 more.

Here's the first. Any and all references to the game Altered Beast were intentional.

• Biography: Giulua was born in a triplet set to Junichiro and Palutena, coming first before Edvige and Marinella left Palutena’s womb. It was initially believed that Alexandrine was the last adept born unto Junichiro and Palutena. She wasn’t. It was soon discovered that Giulua, along with Edvige and Marinella themselves were adepts as well, with Giulua’s septimal power being discovered first when it was witnessed Giulua transformed herself into a beagle to play with the family dogs at an age as early as 7 years old. Immediately, Juni offered to help Giulua train to master the usage of her septima, to which she openly agreed to. Despite the hardships of the training she went through, Giulua was able to master the full extent of her septimal power by the time she was about 13, much like her high-level adept sisters before her. However, Giulua was not given the greenlight to travel with Juni on his journeys until she, along with Edvige and Marinella, were 17. Giulua has since pledged to be of any help in anyway she possibly can, especially if it involves putting a stop to plots initiated by some shady business conducted by Sumeragi, or adept supremacists like Eden. Giulua carries herself in a mature and dignified manner but is a playful soul at heart. Nonetheless, when she’s in a bad mood, she’s proven to be unmovably stubborn at times. She likes visiting zoos, but highly prefers zoos that actually help animals and educate the masses. Roadside zoos make her as mad as a Great Ape on a rampage. An expert on reading animal body language.
• Abilities: As a human attuned to the 7th stage of the lifewave, Giulua proves herself to be a powerful adept, but despite being an A-Rank adept, she is outclassed by those born before her, notably Martisha and Storm who’re two of the strongest high class adepts in the family, yet Giulua is still powerful enough to make a name herself. She has an affinity for the Altered Beast Septima, which, as the name suggests, enables Giulua to transform into a large variety of beast-like animals such as lions, tigers, bears, even the great ape Saiyans transform into. Aside from this, she also invoke the instinct to stampede to serve as a distraction, or as a way to just hurt her enemies badly. Normally the adepts born to Juni & Palutena keep their septimose within dragonstones that have since used up their power and can no longer transform a manakete into their dragon form. Giulua instead uses a beast stone that no longer transforms anyone who can use it into their respective beast form. Giulua’s beast stone came from a taguel and so her septima had adapted the form into Giulua’s memory. In her normal form, Giulua’s septima is limited to the wolf and Taguel form, as well as that of household cats & dogs. But once she weaponizes to unlock the full power of her septima, she trades these playful forms for more ferocious and battle appropriate forms. The forms her septima grants, plus her special skill, are as follows.
o Wolf Form: A balanced form. In this form, Giulua takes on a speedy but strong werewolf form that darts at the opponent at high speeds and has fangs strong enough to break bones with one bite. This enables increased senses to better flush out hidden enemies.
o Lion Form: A form that focuses on high speed offense. While in this form, Giulua has some brutal slash attacks along with a powerful roar that blows away any opponent. This form can also launch energy claw swipes in the form of a 3-hit combo attack. Giulua also tries to shake her foes like a ragdoll while in this form.
o Bear Form: A slower form, Giulua becomes a capable tank while in bear form. It has a powerful claw swipe, and two modes: Grizzly, and Polar. In Grizzly mode, Giulua possesses a breath attack that can cause petrification. In Polar mode, it is instead a freezing frost breath, but grants an unhelpful weakness to fire attacks.
o Tiger Form: This form is also high speed offense focused, but is a bit slower and stronger, respectively, than the lion form. It only has a 2-hit slasher combo, but makes up for it by having stunning roar, as well as a more painful single claw attack.
o Taguel Form: This form mimics the Taguel of Ylisse. A mostly high speed focused form, Giulua attacks in this monstrous rabbit form by simply swiping and jabbing at her opponents, not to mention throwing in painful back kicks. This was gained the moment Giulua obtained her stone.
o Great Ape Form: This form was learned from studying Saiyan biology and learning how to transform into one without the use of the moon, or a Power Ball. As a result of the tradeoff however, it is only half the size of true great apes and doesn’t boast as much offensive power, but it still remains undeniably strong. In this state, Giulua has access to a powerful mouth blast attack and commonly attacks physically by stomping and smashing her fists into the earth.
o Vicious Stampede: “When fangs meet the flesh/Allow me to say to you/ Welcome to your doom! Vicious Stampede!” Giulua’s Special Skill and the only move that doesn’t involve transforming. Instead, she opens a portal and triggers a stampede of 1,000 or more animals to trample across the battlefield and mow down anyone unfortunate enough to be in the way.
