Mental Information
Personality: Brooding, Bitter, shrewd and critical of almost everyone. She has a hard exterior with no regard towards others feelings or thoughts, however behind a fourteen foot wall of junk there is an immeasurably loyal and brave girl willing to put everything she owns at stake for the sake of others. Despite all this however she tends to act bored and calculating a good portion of the time. She can be nice if she wants to, but that’s rare. She also has flashbacks a lot however those have ceased to bother her and simply remain there as a hindrance. This is due to the fact Bastille has had brain damage, so her brain will sometimes spout out memories instead of processing things allowing her to be a bit spacey sometimes. She can also prove to be very wise and extremely mature for her age, and she doesn’t hide this at all often spitting words of wisdom at others when she feels they need it. She has a very solid head on her shoulders, and no fear of telling others what she really feels towards them.
She used to be kind and gentle as well as stubborn but upon becoming an assassin she gained a cold and almost lifeless personality. Over the years she was able to combine the two into who she is now but only to the point where she can no longer tell which personality she is anymore, though both still exist outside of the other.
Likes: food, fencing, ancient weapon collecting, swords, guns.
Dislikes: rivalry, annoying people, perverts, cheap dealers, singing aloud, math, and any mention to her old family.
Mentality/Ideal/Belief:
She believe in god, and speaks to him outright throughout a lot of events. However she does not believe in all the things that come along with a bunch of religions. She had post traumatic stress disorder as well as slight split personality disorder.
Fun-Facts:
- Bastilles body cannot handle any sort of drug at first. So far her body is only immune to cigarettes and Advil, however every other drug that enters her body triggers a severe fever.
- Bastille has an un-understandable fear of doctors and needles. It is a complete mystery as to why she harbors this deep rooted hatred of both objects.
- Bastille hates crowds and loud music, however she can tolerate both of these in club environments and even then she sits up in the VIP room watching below. Otherwise she avoids it.
- Rivalry is understandably, a huge hate of Bastilles. She feels its this that is the reason she’s not where she ultimately wants to be, and feels it ruined her life. So anything pertaining to belonging to a group or gang that has potential rivalry issues she refuses to join or be apart of.
- Though it seems Bastille is mainly a bad attitude bitch a good portion of the time, she always enjoys planning and staring in events. This is because it boosts her ego.
- Bastille loves jumping off extreme heights.
- Bastille gets flustered and childish when emotions such as love or affection enter her life.
- Bastille is a sucker of historical weapons and fashion. These two traits traveled over to her from her families obsessions and she sees them as her two down points. She constantly blames god for these fetishes as well.
- Bastille speaks over five different languages, though not completely fluently.
- Bastille secretly owns a diary. 0.0 pst. Its in her pillow case.
- Bastille is an excellent cook, as well as somewhat of a neat freak.

FENCING: (From Wikipedia: Rest of Article
In the broadest possible sense, fencing is the art of armed combat involving cutting, stabbing, or bludgeoning weapons directly manipulated by hand, rather than shot, thrown or positioned. Examples include swords, knives, pikes, bayonets, batons, clubs, and similar weapons. This definition is a stretch of the word, however. "Fencing" wasn't invented until either the Renaissance or at the very end of the Late Middle Ages, depending on who you ask. For weapon styles pre-dating this origin, "melee" or "Western Martial Arts" are better descriptors. In contemporary common usage, "fencing" tends to refer specifically to European schools of swordsmanship and to the modern Olympic sport that has evolved out of them.
Fencing is one of the four sports which has been featured at every modern Olympic Games. Currently, three types of weapon are used in Olympic fencing:
Foil — a light thrusting weapon; the valid target is restricted to the torso; double hits are not allowed (see priority rules below).
Épée — a heavy thrusting weapon; the valid target area covers the entire body; double hits are allowed.
Sabre — a light cutting and thrusting weapon; the valid target area includes almost everything above the waist (excluding the back of the head and the hands); double hits are not allowed (see priority rules below).
Etymology: The word 'fence' was originally a shortening of the Middle English 'defens', that came from an Italian word, 'defensio', in origin a Latin word.
Overall Strengths: This style and its training has allowed her to become extremely strong in speed and constitution. She is able to withstand more then people think she can, and she is also much faster then people speculate with her lazy attitude. Other strengths include her eyes being trained to calculate muscle movement enabling her to predict movements as well as she is very flexible and incorporated gymnastics into her style. She is mainly a defensive fighter and it better dodging or fighting from a distance. She can usually modify her style to match another’s in a way to find their weaknesses.
Overall Weaknesses: She isn’t very strong so she has to rely on the inertia of her speed to give her more strength then she currently has. She is also rather weak in extremely close range. This doesn’t mean she cannot defend herself at close range, she’s just bad at attacking in it. Her hits do little damage with no speed behind them.
History Information
History: Bastille Cunningham is not an American Citizen. Born in Bathe, England she was born to a very rich British Family. The family being not only 14th in line for the throne, but as a whole, a huge industrial power. The family was brought up with wealth and every one of their members brought up for the one purpose of bring more wealth to the family. Its members married within the family and all formed and elite and secret group. Bastille was born to Rhodri and Alan Cunningham on April 13th, as the fourth child. (Other siblings in order from oldest to youngest: Versailles (Vera), Peter, Buckingham (aka: buck), and later after Bastille, baby Adam.) Living like royalty in an elite family, under the careful and scrutinizing eyes of her elder sister and maids/ tutors, Bastille grew to match her families perfection taking a lead in education and in the arts. She was raised as the perfect child prodigy. However she had a nasty temper that her sister tried to tame. Bastille hated her sister and her family, feeling like a bird in a cage all her life. By the time she was 10 years old she was shipped to military school like all the children where and was taught to fight in the British Royal Air force. While she was there she took Fencing in her spare time. It was the only art that made her happy, and she excelled at it. Then came winter. Bastille was expected to return home the next year for an all girls school until she would be married into the family. However as Bastille came home from her training that cold winter she met a boy about her age on the way. His name is unknown however Bastille snuck out every day she could to see him, teaching him how to fence and spending long days by his side. He was the only friend she had. The son of an elite family in the United States he was here to settle relations with yet another one of her families opposing companies. Bastille knew it was dangerous to be his friend. Dangerous to have the feelings she did for him even if he was older then her by a couple years. He promised to return for her one day and get her away from her cage. He went missing the next day. Bastille of course found out instantly her family had been the ones to commit the murder they did, and she immediately ran away from home. America, the home of her only friends family and her own families biggest rival. The family welcomed her with open arms, despite she being the reason their son was now gone. Bastille kept her family name of Cunningham only to prove to the world the embarrassment her family would feel. She continued to fence as an activity before her new parents sent her off to school. It was there she met her second and closest friend Homi. Though Bastille loves her new parents she feels guilty and thus spends more time away from them then close to home. She rents and apartment with Homi with help from her foster family.
It is later detailed that sometime between her moving to America that Bastille went to visit Japan as an assassin for a while. During her stay there she was assaulted by a man named Gilgamesh while under an assassin assignment. He took an interest because of her fiery attitude and her strong aura? After a long and trying battle in the rain and on the top of a sky scrapper Bastille won the battle threw very ‘unhonorable’ means. However she did not cripple him for long and upon reaching the hospital she passed out only to have him go in there and kidnap her. He later enslaved her completely. Flash backs detail her time with him however it is learned that during this time the two began to show certain feelings for each other, and it is unclear if Bastille left him or he left her, however it was soon after that Homi and She moved back to the United States.
She attended public high school meeting first Mathew Amtrum. By this point in history she can no longer tell which personality is presently dominate in her body. Trying to recover what she can of a normal life with Homi’s help. Mathew Amtrum reminded her a lot of Gilgamesh and in the end one of her personalities, the more physically dominate, feel for him. However she also met a plethora of other friends and foes, one being David Blaze which the old Bastille learned to love almost immediately. With going through the tortures of the correctional facility and being torn between to men by two personalities when you cant even tell which is dominate tore Bastille apart and ended with her in the hospital with an injured eye. The school underwent a transfer with her time in the hospital. Bastille under went a two year period in hiding trying to regain the power of her eye as well as reconcile her two personalities. Different then before…Bastille comes to phs 42 ready to finish out high school, they way she sees fit.
