Physical Description:
Aurum emerges as a figure of remarkable stature and presence. Standing at an imposing 7 feet 3 inches, his lean yet formidable frame weighs in at 240 pounds, a testament to years of relentless training and discipline. Each sinewy muscle reflects the countless hours spent honing his physical prowess, sculpting a physique that balances strength with agility in perfect harmony.

Aurum's countenance is framed by tousled strands of brownish-golden hair, cascading in waves around his ruggedly handsome features. His piercing amber eyes, gleaming with an intensity that speaks of unwavering determination, serve as windows to the soul beneath his imposing exterior. With each gaze, one can glimpse the fire burning within—a dance of the flames of mischief and the hottest blaze of resolve to protect those he holds dear.

Emblazoned upon his back shoulder lies a tattoo of a monkey in an aggressive stance, the sacred seal of the Dasheng family. Etched into his skin with intricate detail, the tattoo serves as a visual representation of his lineage and heritage, a constant reminder of the weight of his familial obligations and the legacy he carries upon his shoulders.

But it is perhaps Aurum's Faunus heritage that sets him apart most distinctly. His long, prehensile tail, matching the hue of his hair, serves as both a practical appendage and a symbolic extension of his identity. Whether coiled around his waist in repose or twitching with anticipation, his tail adds an element of fluidity to his movements.

Adorning his skin are black markings, reminiscent of wispy clouds or ink spills, a manifestation of his family's unique semblance. Passed down through generations, these markings hold a deep significance, symbolizing the bonds, or rather shackles in his eyes, that tie Aurum to his ancestry and the power that flows through his veins.

In every aspect, Aurum embodies the legacy of the Dasheng clan—a legacy of strength, resilience, and unwavering loyalty. As he strides through the world of Remnant, his presence commands attention, a testament to the indomitable spirit that drives him forward on his journey.

Backstory Highlights:
Aurum, originally without a name until the age of five, was born into the esteemed Dasheng family, renowned as an elite Monkey Faunus clan. Publicly recognized as a political and economic powerhouse, the Dashengs wielded influence that extended far and wide. However, beneath their veneer of prestige lay a darker truth known to those familiar with the underground. Aurum was raised amidst tales of Faunus oppression and the simmering racial tensions plaguing Remnant. He was taught to believe in the righteousness of radical Faunus groups, viewing his clan as benefactors who supplied resources, funds, and even manpower to support their cause.

Upon receiving his name, Aurum, signifying his future leadership as the head of the clan, he ascended to the status of an elite, almost regal, member of the Dasheng Clan. This transition marked the beginning of intensive training under the tutelage of the clan's finest masters. His education encompassed a multifaceted approach, focusing on physical prowess to combat Grimm, Faunus, and humans alike. Under the rigorous guidance of his instructors, he honed his combat skills and strategic acumen, preparing for the challenges that lay ahead. Additionally, he delved into the intricacies of market dynamics, learning the nuances of trade and commerce to further bolster his family's influence and power.

As a child, Aurum's days were consumed by grueling physical conditioning, laying the groundwork for his formidable skills. From dawn till dusk, he pushed himself to the limit, balancing on his hands, navigating his chores with only his tail and feet, or defying gravity by hanging upside down to avoid the scorching heat of boiling water. Rest was a luxury he seldom enjoyed, often interrupted by rigorous study sessions delving into his family's history and beliefs.

Under the watchful eye of his grandfather, who shared his namesake, Aurum's training took on an even greater intensity. The elder Aurum oversaw every aspect of his grandson's development, pushing him to his limits and beyond. There were days when Aurum found himself nursing injuries, his arm in a sling after intense sparring sessions with the clan's best fighters. Yet, through adversity, he learned the harsh lesson that his enemies would exploit any weakness, instilling in him a ruthless determination to always be prepared for the challenges ahead.

As Aurum transitioned into his teenage years, his training regimen shifted towards intensive combat preparation. Armed with real weapons, he engaged in relentless sparring sessions, wielding the Iron Staff—a scaled-down version of the legendary Dasheng Legacy, the clan's iconic weapon. Despite being a lighter training version, the Iron Staff still weighed over one hundred pounds, a formidable burden for Aurum to bear. However, the weight of his training staff was but a fraction of the Dasheng Legacy's, which was known to be significantly heavier.

Nights offered little respite as Aurum collapsed onto his bedding, the weight of his training staff a constant reminder of his dedication. His skills honed to perfection, Aurum emerged victorious in most sparring matches, deflecting every attack with precision and agility. Impressed by his grandson's prowess, Aurum's grandfather sanctioned his enrollment at Beacon, recognizing the need for Aurum to confront the looming threat of the Grimm. Thus, Aurum embarked on the next phase of his journey, ready to face the challenges that awaited him at the prestigious academy.

During his time at Beacon, Aurum immersed himself in the vast knowledge available, eagerly absorbing every lesson and often spending hours taking copious notes and devouring books from the library. His fascination with Grimm combat only deepened, finding joy in the challenges they presented and relishing every opportunity to spar with his peers. However, it wasn't until he crossed paths with a fellow student named Leon that Aurum truly found a kindred spirit in combat.

From their first encounter, a fierce rivalry sparked between Aurum and Leon, driving them to push each other to greater heights. Determined to surpass his newfound rival, Aurum threw himself into training, forming a close bond with Leon and their team members. Together, they faced countless challenges, each one strengthening their resolve and sharpening their skills. With a smile on his face and a steadfast determination, Aurum vowed to never let his rival soar without him, forging ahead on their journey as Huntsmen with unwavering camaraderie and ambition.

However, amidst his rigorous training and academic pursuits, Aurum never forgot his younger sister, Argenti, affectionately nicknamed Genni. Despite sharing blood, Genni was considered of lower rank within the clan due to her physical attributes being akin to the 'silvers.' Nonetheless, Aurum cherished their bond, often drawing strength from memories of their shared childhood. As he pursued his dreams at Beacon, Aurum carried Genni's spirit with him, a constant reminder of the family he fought to protect and the legacy he originally sought to uphold.
Occupation:
4th Year Student
Semblance Name:
Iron Nimbus
Semblance Description:
Throughout the ages, the Dasheng lineage meticulously honed and perfected their unique semblance, known as Nimbus, culminating in Aurum's awe-inspiring manifestation of power. Adorned with permanently etched black markings, reminiscent of wispy clouds or ink spills, provided Aurum with several abilities to help him preform in combat. His was called Iron Nimbus

Aurum possesses the extraordinary ability to manifest the black markings to fully envelop his appendages, transforming them into hardened structures akin to iron. When activated, these markings imbue his limbs with several key features, enhancing both their defensive and offensive capabilities. In this state, Aurum’s arms and legs become encased in a layer of impenetrable blackness, granting them unparalleled strength and durability. The iron-like composition of his appendages allows him to withstand powerful blows and attacks with ease, effectively turning them into formidable weapons in combat. Furthermore, Aurum gains the ability to strike his hardened limbs together, creating powerful shockwaves that can blast away groups of enemies or larger Grimm with devastating force.

The second ability aptly named Cloud Walker is giving Aurum the remarkable ability to transform his body into swirling black smoke, either fully or partially. In this mist-like state, he becomes impervious to conventional attacks, allowing him to effortlessly pass through enemies and obstacles with enhanced mobility while also healing any minor wounds sustained in battle. The partial change serves as a defensive field of white steams enable Aurum to evade attacks more effectively with the steam acting as a barrier to warn him of oncoming attacks. This ability grants him the flexibility to retreat easily and regenerate, while also providing an agility buff that allows him to reposition swiftly or dodge incoming attacks.
Weapon Name:
Dasheng Legacy
Weapon Description:
Dasheng Legacy is a family heirloom passed down from generations of past Dasheng heads to their successors as soon as they pass a trial long standing traditions that push the young till either they break or they pass and take the iron staff as their own, changing it to make it suit them. When the weapon was passed to Aurum it was red in color and still held that unruly weight, the one aspect of the weapon no single successor was able to change and sprouted the myth that the weight came from the responsibilities that came with the weapon and position of heir.

Currently the Bō staff is reaching seven feet in length and weighing in at three hundred pounds, making it practically unwieldy and useless for almost everyone else, unless it lies in the hands of Aurum and then he makes the burden and hinderance of the weight one of its greatest strengths. After removing the last of the traditional wooden markings and decorations that laid across the metal staff, he then replaced it with a harder and stronger brass and changing out the steel plating and then the abhorred red color, making it a gunmetal grey steel instead. After installing the appropriate pipes for dust, the staff was finished off when he inserted the hard light modules into both ends of the staff and finally installing the dust magazine set to the side.


The Dasheng Legacy provides two forms for Aurum to utilize in combat with each providing both advantages and disadvantages alongside them. The first being the staff without being loaded with dust and the second having dust inserted and the staff powered.

Without being loaded the staff acts and behaves as one would expect of a heavy metal staff but with a few interesting features. The first being is that it can come apart to form two quarter staffs, each reaching three and a half feet and weighing in one hundred and fifty pounds. The next feature can only be used when dust isn’t added to the staff, the hard light modules retract themselves and giving an opening so that blades can extend out on both sides.

When Dasheng’s Legacy is filled with dust it becomes a completely different weapon available for Aurum’s arsenal. The hard light modules set their positions to the ends of the staff and activate, extending beams of hard light that Aurum is able to determine the length and size with the control panels hidden away underneath several sensors that only activate and work to his touch. The maximum length of the hard light modules is capable of providing up to twenty extra feet that are shared between both sides. This means if he uses all twenty feet of hard light on Side A, Side B won’t have any hard light to produce until Side A retracts some of it. The staff is also able to increase in size to about a foot in diameter and with that so will the hard light at the cost of its length, it will then make the maximum only ten feet that is shared. The hard light itself is as strong as the staff itself and will retract either when Aurum deactivates it himself, or the magazine runs out of dust charges. A magazine loaded with 10 charges will last about thirty minutes at maximum power and use for each charge.
