Profile

Skyfire is affiliated with King's Wand, the central organ of Foxtail, an Originium Arts research institute. A tech specialist from Victoria, she holds degrees in geology and Originium geology, and is respected in fields of Originium study both practical and theoretical.

Currently the Chief Caster stationed at Rhodes Island on loan from the King's Wand, Skyfire's mission is to jointly research Originium while providing combat mission assistance.

Clinical Analysis

Imaging test for this Operator showed clear outlines of internal organs without any unusual dark signs. No unusual traces of Originium particles present in her system, no signs of infection, confirming her as Non-infected.

[Cell-Originium Assimilation] 0%

Operator Skyfire showed no symptoms of Oripathy.

[Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.11u/L

Operator Skyfire rarely operates in areas with a high Originium presence.

That's a sure sign of a diva who hasn't seen much of the real world, if you ask me. She needs a lesson in the grim reality of war and just how hard the Infected have it. Skyfire should be given more hands-on combat missions to knock some sense into her.

—Medic Operator Gavial

A reminder, Gavial, that all physical examinations are public record.

Operator Skyfire's Originium Arts far exceeds that of peers of her age. She excels at pulling fire into a huge mass and incinerating clustered targets with it.

In the process, the flame also disintegrates her outfit, even setting her hair ablaze, but never damages her.

With intense heat a brilliant glow, her power manifests like the sun itself, hence her codename.

With such immense power, the talented yet inexperienced Skyfire still cannot fully control it.

Listen for the fire alarm anywhere Skyfire may be present.

What motivated the partnership between King's Wand and Rhodes Island was rather insignificant.

But to scholars of the Wand, it was practically intolerable.

In a protest-turned-riot, the Infected accidentally killed 'Phil,'the King's Wand's pet. This enraged the Wand scholars. The demonstrators never could have anticipated the scholars would be as combat ready as they were, and brimming with youthful, rebellious rage.

Just because of a pet-- a member of the family to the Wand, the scholars began a campaign of vengeance that devastated the protesters.

The King's Wand at the time was a group of just five students. So they sought the assistance of an organization specialized in dealing with the Infected, with the intention of eradicating the Infected movement and its vile protestors.

That's the reason King's Wand is working with Rhodes Island. More or less.

Archive File 3

When Skyfire uses her Originium Arts, everything on her person is destroyed by the intense heat her body releases.

That creates two problems. First, while the excessive heat is harmless to Skyfire, anything close by usually isn't so lucky.

Second, there is no fabric that could survive her flames, meaning she's always looking for an alternative.

Rhodes Island has tried to make viable costumes for her, but all attempts have failed.

These two problems are the only issues Skyfire has at the moment.

Archive File 4

Skyfire actually is not arrogant or cynical. It's just that, to her, very few people can keep up with her leaps in logic and her visionary decisions. It's a failure in communication that is truly bothering her.

Skyfire may not want to scold or criticize her peers, and her abrasiveness is perhaps an attempt to express her own greatness.

Fortunately, Skyfire does have some like-minded friends, with such a diversity of Operators on Rhodes Island. That offsets a bit of her discomfort and loneliness.

Assuming she felt any.

Some nosy Operators have claimed Skyfire apologized profusely to the Doctor for accidentally destroying mission debriefs.

Promotion Record

To wield the power of the King's Wand, a scholar faces a test of her own mastery.

A condensed drop of water is more resilient than a shattered gem, and a well-balanced team beats a haphazard squad of eccentric geniuses.

Of course, given a commander with the talent to min/max their strengths and weaknesses, they can still rule the battlefield.

And it should probably start with the Operator who burns off her uniform on a whim.

    'The Infected who call themselves 'Reunion'... attacked three schools in the vicinity of the Infected slums... whoops.'

    'Burned the paper again? Rewrite it.'

    The elderly Savra watches from across the desk as the Mountbelan heiress crumples the scorched paper and furiously tosses it into the rubbish bin.

    'The Infected who call...'

    'Five students were injured in the attack. Furthermore... No! This is pissing me off!'

    'All that these 'Reunion' scoundrels are doing is getting revenge on society and making everyone even more afraid of the Infected! Professor, there is no way I can forgive them.'

    Her professor does not answer her directly. After a brief moment of silence, he picks up the pen that was tossed toward him and sets it down next to Ethelflaed.

    'Try it again.'

    'Article 5 of the 'Infected Regulation Act...' The Infected's area of activity shall be limited to... This is what they came up with after all those meetings? Haven't they learned their lesson from 'Reunion', Oh, I'm very sorry, Professor. And I managed to control myself so well.'

    Ethelflaed lets go of the sheet of paper in a fluster. The meeting's document is once again scorched.

    '...It's really these documents' fault for being so foolish, though. Look at the ruckus the Infected are causing. How could those boneheaded lords still be cozying up to each other?'

    'Professor, I'll write them all a letter of complaint.'

    'They have to take the 'Reunion' problem more seriously and deal with it in the most effective manner. They must immediately, '

    'Uhh... It's burning again.'

    'Right. Try it one more time.'

    'Finally, exiled Infected are extraordinarily likely to bear a grudge and seek opportunities for revenge against the city... Phew, I'm done, Professor. I'm not particularly fond of this justification, but they don't leave me much choice. We have to put it in terms that those stubborn, short-sighted blockheads can understand.'

    Ethelflaed wrote fifteen whole pages with the neatest handwriting and not the slightest scorch mark. She looks excitedly toward her professor.

    'Good.' Angst nods and takes out a letter he had written. It is addressed to a 'Rhodes Island', a name she is unfamiliar with.

    'You know the theory. You have mastered the techniques. Your studies can finally begin.'

    'You want to solve both the Infected's problems and the 'Reunion' problem... In that case, you should meet those who are truly fighting those problems head on.'

Appointed as Assistant
The fire alarm's gone off? Sorry, it was only me passing by your office. My body temperature must've sailed too high again.
Talk 1
There's no language that's impossible to learn, no Arts that are impossible to understand. Isn't that the plain and simple truth? ...What? I'm the exception to the rule, you say?
Talk 2
My life plans...? Tch, everything was going swimmingly until that dreadful attack. But after Reunion murdered Phil, their eradication jumped to the top of my to-do list.
Talk 3
Rhodes Island's methods aren't nearly tough enough. All they'll do is drag King's Wand down.
Talk after Promotion 1
Can you talk to Amiya for me? Poor girl, her kind heart clouds her judgment. As far as I'm concerned, total annihilation is the only fitting end for the wicked.
Talk after Promotion 2
Your current skills wouldn't compare to even the average level of a King's Wand member such as myself. Ha, yes, I'm powerful... and the power of all five of us put together... words wouldn't even begin to describe.
Talk after Trust Increase 1
Luminarie's blade was a gift from Shiro. I heard that the owner before Shiro was a swordmaster who could fell all the cherry blossoms of Higashi with a single swing. But even that legendary swordmaster was no match for Shiro, and had to surrender the blade.
Talk after Trust Increase 2
What happened to your shirt? What? I burned a hole in it? But... impossible... my self-control is impeccable, don't you think...? I... well, I'm sorry. Really, truly sorry.
Talk after Trust Increase 3
We might be on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to ideals, but I do enjoy seeing the people of Rhodes Island sweat away with bright hopes for the future. Yes, that is a compliment. It's a heartwarming sight.
Idle
How lazy. You think it's fine to just sleep here and while away the precious day?
Onboard
I am Skyfire of King's Wand. I will remain at Rhodes Island until my objective is accomplished. What's my objective, you ask? To burn every last Reunion thug to ashes, of course.

This is no way to go about unleashing my true power.

Pathetic... you're nothing but ashes now. Were you hoping to leave a trace behind?
Sub 3-star Result
Is that it? I had higher expectations.

Impossible... how could I...

Couldn't you ready a slightly cooler room for me?
Tap
Are you trying to get your hand burnt?
Trust Tap
Doctor, could you explain this theory to me? I'll need twelve minutes of your time, that's all.
Title
Arknights.
New Year's blessing
Hmph, they won't let me near the fireworks. They say I could lose control and blow them all to kingdom come. They even set Logistics operators to guard the things. Why, I never, Eek! Get a fire extinguisher! …Anger causing a rise in body temperature is a perfectly normal physiological phenomenon. I, I'll steer clear of them!
Greeting
How are you doing today, Doctor?
Birthday
Manipulating Originium Arts to bake little clay treats is a lovely way to practice my fine control of the flames, and it's quite safe. Here, this delightful cup is for you. Ah, and it even heats itself, so you'll always have hot water. But do be careful when you sip from it.
Anniversary Celebration
I find I do think rather simply about some things. Pure power won't actually achieve everything I set for myself. It may hold the other side off for a while, but it doesn't get to the root of the issue. I must press on, Rhodes Island, I have much more yet to learn here.
