A stubborn researcher with a propensity to attract misfortune to themselves, and an author insert that isn't the main focus of the story, for a change! Blake often has a good read on those around them, or otherwise can make a good guess, having had many years of practice. They're never seen without their crystal ear fob, often claiming separation would Shatter them and those around them in seconds. They insist they're not smart, just savvy and resourceful, and their motivations are often hard to read, even with keen senses. Even in the face of death itself, Blake remains visually calm, though harbors a tempest of thoughts and perceptions that not even they can separate out, sometimes.

Blake is actually two people, though anyone who sees them wouldn't know this. Only one iteration of Blake can be seen at a time, and it's random. Functionally, they're the same; however, Sage is the main entity, a Rauga shades away from Shattering. Reconstructing Zinnia from salvaged Memories has given him enough of a feeling of Purpose to keep going, though.

Blake has other Alters, due to having a strong Empath Trait, but rarely feels the need to borrow their specialties. No, check that, they have a hard time asking anyone for aid, period. Even when they have to fight, they focus down on only what's coming their way and how to plan around it. Their fighting style is one that relies on pre-prediction and strong Reflexes. Often, one will have a hard time approaching Blake due to the sheer density of traps they lay and Techniques meant to punish one for overextending. Siege is their style, and they often can contest hordes of enemies for a long time, but struggle against single Targets.

...and for the few who will ask, why the blue geometry on the mask? Why not? It's just face paint. Sometimes Blake wants to look more Feral than they are. Let them~
