Appearance: Bianca has long, shoulder-length blonde hair and a slender but toned body figure which was obtained through years of physical conditioning. She can often be seen wearing sports attire or casual wear, as she dislikes restrictive or fanciful clothes.




Bio: Bianca was the sole daughter and child of a local boxing champion, and she grew up watching her father in various matches and competitions. Her mother died giving birth to her, and as such, her father took it upon himself to raise his daughter as best he could. Wanting Bianca to eventually take over the family business of running his boxing studio, he trained her in boxing techniques and encouraged her to participate in competitions ever since she first learned to walk.

Unfortunately for the father-daughter combo, hard days fell upon their boxing studio. Business started to wane as the local craze shifted to baseball, and the family began to face financial difficulties. Not possessing many other talents, Bianca's father temporarily closed the studio and took up 3 other part-time jobs in order to support them, but it was clear that his income was barely enough to provide 3 meals each day.

It was at their height of poverty that Mr. P showed up, offering a hefty cash prize of 1 million dollars if Bianca's father could win in a boxing match against one of his representatives. It sounded like a tempting deal, but by this time, age had already caught up to him. He had not stepped into the ring for 15 years, and his physical deterioration had only been made worse with lack of proper nutrition.

Nevertheless, Bianca's father insisted on taking up Mr. P's offer, despite Bianca's protests. Seeing as there was no other way, Bianca made another offer to Mr. P, asking him to let her participate in the match in place of her father. Mr. P readily accepted, and arranged a time and date for her to arrive.

Her opponent was a monster of a man, and for the first part of the fight, rained down blow after blow on Bianca relentlessly. She expected a difficult fight, however, and quickly adapted to his fighting style before turning the tables on her opponent.

It was at the point of certain victory that he activated his _ability_. At that time, Bianca had no experience with the supernatural, and had no idea what he was doing. Yet, she definitely felt something off. Her hair began to stand on end as goosebumps trickled across her back. Her opponent suddenly began to shrug off her hardest hits as though she was doing no more than tickling him, and her fists felt like she was pounding on steel.

She did not realize he had used a Manifestation.

Bianca was quickly beaten into submission, and upon realizing she had no chance of victory, quickly surrendered. To her horror, the man did not stop pounding on her, a strange bloodlust glinting in his eyes. Fists like iron blocks slammed into her skull again and again, and before she knew it, darkness engulfed her.


Post-mortem: When she opened her eyes again, she was standing in a darkened room. It looked like she had been transported underground, as the walls were moldy and the room stank of dead rats. A frizzled man in a tattered lab coat stood over a desk, with various beakers and notebooks strewn messily over the surface, mumbling incoherently under his breath. He was facing what seemed to be a corpse that was lying on an operating table, with various wires hooked up to it. There was a second operating table, empty except for a couple of bloodstains and iron chains hanging off its sides, next to the first.

"Where am I?" came Bianca's natural question. "Am I dead?"

"... Death can be subjective, depending on how you look at it." The skeletal figure replied in a raspy voice, his back still facing her. "All that is life is merely a few electrical signals in the cerebral cortex, after all."

Bianca cautiously approached him, her instincts on high alert. "Who are you?"

"No, no, these are all the wrong questions." The figure picked up a drill, turning to face Bianca. He gestured towards the empty table, a chilling grin spreading across his half-decayed face. "The right question is: Would you like a second chance at life?"




Geist: Bianca's geist is Frankenstein, a scientist in the 1800s who successfully creates a homunculus and brings it to life, before travelling to the North Pole and dying of pneumonia after realizing the horror that he had created. As he frequently communicated with spirits and had vast knowledge of the Underworld while he was still alive, he continues to seek more knowledge of the occult as a geist.

He follows Bianca around as a shuffling figure with dirty, frizzled hair and skeletal body proportions, wearing nothing more than bloodied, tattered rags. Occasionally, he may be willing to share a piece of his knowledge with her, or demand that she discover a piece of information for him.
