Ahaha, I’m oh so clever, aren’t I? Just as Moonlily and Light are. As promised, here is a bit of info on Noel Vermillion of BlazBlue.
Character voice: Kanako Kondou
Height: 157 cm
Weight: 48 kg
Blood type: A
Gender: Female
Origin: Switzerland
Hobby: Writing Poems
Tier Listing(According to Dustloop): B
Theme Song: Bullet Dance
Because of her outstanding combat ability and suitable operation evaluations, Noel was selected to be Jin Kisaragi’s direct subordinate in her youth. The two were acquaintances in the Military Academy, though Noel thought Jin was extremely weak. However, on a certain mission handed down from the Librarium, her preconceptions were changed. She is actually μ -12-, the predecessor of v -13- (both of them are Ark-Enemy units), although she doesn’t remember it. During the Ikaruga Civil War, she was found amidst the burning fields of Ikaruga, where she was rescued, after which she was adopted by her parents of the Vermillion family. Her Drive Ability is known as Chain Revolver, which specializes in chain linking her combos together.
Noel Vermillion’s focus in combat is all about her combos, thanks to the ability of Chain Revolver. And while she may have a variety of guns at her disposal, Noel appears to be suited for mid to close range combat thanks to her reliance on combos, aerial techniques, and lack of a longer distance projectile. The only two overdrive moves I’ve seen thus far include a stunning attack, which leads her into firing a large gattling gun at her opponent, slowly raising them into the air, and an aerial barrage of bullets from her pistols followed by a set of destructive missiles.
Overall, I see Noel being a unique character with aspects of Dizzy from Guilty Gear, given their respective statuses as machine beings. Noel also seems to be shaping up to be quite a devastating opponent when she locks you into her combos, as her overdrives also seem to link into each other.
Next character, Bang Shishigami.
