Fighting Style: In this form, Cocoa's style is always about maintaining grace and poise no matter the situation. Whether dodging a pitiless and powerful attack salvo or launching one of her own she will always step out of the dust with a slight flick of her sleeves and a dusting of her shoulders, nary a hair out of place most of the time. Landing on the tips of her toes on high pointed rocks or the tips of branches, every movement is measured and precise to make sure that the battle is ended as gracefully and cleanly as possible. Especially so that the attacker will not disturb those who might be under the protection of her hospitality.

Skills/Talents:
Backpack Contents: - Candy Making: Whether it's molding hard fruit candy into that perfect sparkling shine or softly drizzling chocolate onto a delicious spread of sweet and creamy treats, Cocoa's main passion in life is the making of candy. From top to bottom, all around the world if it's sweet and sticky and a little bit bad for you she sees it as nothing less than the highest expression of human artistry. Homemade, home town favorites to upper class, delicately shaped delights. Her eye is always on that goal of becoming the best she can be when it comes to serving people sugary little smiles and calls for seconds.
- Social Graces: Cocoa does her best to always be welcome in any social setting, and will do her best to play both perfect host and peacemaker if it means everyone can sit down, cool off and maybe talk things out over a plate of puffy treats served up just for the occasion. Fancy dress, proper etiquette, the duties of society and the guest must always be upheld and damn if the woman doesn't make it look easy as she flits from one foot to the next looking for anyone in range with an unhappy face and less than a spring in their step.
- Sleight of Hand: When it comes to making sure that your ingredients are always on the move and never letting an enraptured kitchen audience never see the next trick coming, keeping your fingers moving is the only way to do it. A handful of chocolate chips might vanish in the palm of white gloves and yet appear on the plate below without so much as a single mark on the fabric. Helping the charming chocolatier keep some amount of whimsy in his already awe inspiring presentations.
- Languages: Ortega speaks enough languages to technically be considered a polyglot. As a Belgian, from Flanders specifically her native language is Flemish, a dialect of Dutch. However as a Belgian she also took Walloon French and German in school in order to communicate with her countrymen and speaks all three languages just as easily as she does her native. She is also a fluent speaker of English, which she studied in her high education in order to improve her prospects of career and travel. Her knowledge of Japanese is still below fluent but she's able to communicate well enough in it especially now that she's well absorbed into the Japanese culture around her
- Cane: Cocoa walks with a cane from a disability she's had since birth that partially paralyzed her right leg. While she is partially ambulatory without it, it's better for everyone if she keeps it on hand. Delicately molded with a rounded head and angel wings on top and spray painted an eye catching gold that's expensive enough to look fancy and sturdy without looking too stuck up as to be unapproachable. Cocoa never hides her use of the cane and never attempts to hide her disability either. Plus, the cane is hollow and with an unscrewing of the head reveals a temperature insulated compartment taking up most of the inside that hides emergency candy making supplies to never leave her without her true loves in life.
- Ribbon: Cocoa always carries on her several length of thick and sturdy ribbon. While it's most often visible as the bow tie around her neck it can be used for everything from quick decoration rescue to climbing rope that will hold up to human weight for at least a little bit. There always seems to be just slightly more than could be comfortably fit into her coat but a good magician never reveals her secrets.
- Candy: Of various kinds, flavors and styles. Cocoa never leaves the house without something that she's spent time cooking up and drizzling down into perfectly molded and boxed treats. The ultimate ice breaker no matter the scenario she's always willing to share. Like with the ribbon the candy always seems to be perfectly boxed and shaped no matter the conditions of Cocoa herself and there seems to be just a little bit more or bigger candy than she could comfortably carry in her coat. So long as nobody questions her methods than everybody gets free, fresh and home made candy anyway.
Personality: Cocoa believes that nothing so much as peace and comfort can bring people together. Symbolized by people from all kinds and walks of life sitting down to a single table and enjoying themselves over one of the few truly universal experiences: Good food and good company. Discord and hatred and not so easily soothed but the first step is always calming the unruly tensions and finding one thing that both sides can agree on. Even if that something is just that the food set down in front of them is good enough to pause the fighting for.
Life is too short to deny ourselves its pleasures, even if those pleasures are usually seen as sinful. The simply joy of biting into a rich and fudgy chocolate or licking over the shimmering shell of a sour candy calms the harshest parts of ourselves, taking the moment of sensation to breathe deep and count our blessings. People who deny themselves the simple things in life are either doing so for the sake of some misguided "responsibility" or believe themselves too far above the happiness of living to indulge. Cocoa has very little time for either kind of person.
In her deepest heart of hearts she believes that the true reward of living is being warm, feel and clam with something sweet dancing on the lips.

Appearance: Cocoa is a woman who puts supreme importance on her style and grace while never hiding the parts of her that make her human. She'd never consent to step out of the house in less than her best usually meaning lots of pink and white and gold all thrown together.
Dyed pink hair and bright eyes with pale skin. Her face is pudgy and round, showing a happiness and the fact that this is a chef who tastes everything she makes and never pulls back from indulging herself. Her disability is also easily noticed, a limp in her right leg that requires the use of a cane and yet she never falters in show a style and poise in her every motion.
She's larger, more heavy set and with a bum leg and yet only see herself as a center of glamor, fashion and the sweeter things in life. The kind of person who just by looking at her you can tell she refuses to be brought down by the harshness of life. A congenital limb defect she was born with also makes her right leg noticeably shorter and thinner than her left and she's missing the pinkie toe on her right foot meaning most of her clothing and shoes are custom made, which she only takes as another opening to show off her personal glitz and style.
FaceClaim: POKEMON • ortega • Cocoa
Personal History: Born to regular parents living in a small town in Flanders, Belgium, Cocoa was born at a disadvantage from birth. Congenital Limb Defect is what it's called, in Cocoa's case it meant she was born with a right leg that was thin and shrunken compared to her left and missing one toe on her right foot. Her parents cared for and loved her unconditionally though and Cocoa grew up as a happy and curious child. It was only during her schooling days that she would experience any amount of bullying or loneliness for her condition. It was also during that same childhood where she would discover her true calling.
Lebbeke, her home town is home to the largest single chocolate factory in the world and a childhood field trip would bring Cocoa, then known by her birth name Anna-Marie face to face with the love of her life. Seeing the magic of chocolate being made and the joy it inspired in others, the way her entire class would pause and groan with delight every time they got to taste a fresh, sweet sample. It lit a fire in her. The way to make people happy was to bring them around something delicious and see them enjoying it. She needed to know how to do it with her own two hands.
That has been her journey until now. Following her passion from one far flung edge of the world to another, tracking down every local tradition and method of making sweet treats. Now she has arrived on the shores of Japan for another step in her education, one of the most sweet and candy obsessed nations in the world, from novelty shop candies to the kind of ancient classical sweets you have to pull the recipes out of scrolls and sagas. Little does she know that he love for the sweet and succulent is going to call her toward a new and bright destiny!
SPIRIT USER'S INITIAL EVOLUTION LINE
Spirit Element: Sweet
Sprite Spirit
Species: Luxmon
Appearance:
Cocoa's Lux form smells anomalously good, like freshly baked sweets with a hint of warm cane sugar and melted chocolate. The skin of the outfit she wear is shimmering and shiny, more like molded sugar than a real cloth outfit and the skin and hair of the digimon form produce steaming heat like a freshly warmed oven.
Attribute: Vaccine
Family/ies: Angel's Army
Type: Angel
Fighting Style: Cocoa in her sprite form does her best to always be mischievous. She knows she can't keep up a sustained fight, especially with larger opponents so she does her best to avoid getting bogged down in a fair fight in the first place. Ducking behind cover and using a variety of misdirecting abilities to keep battle on her terms. Like the fae her digimon form takes some inspiration from, she is most often simply a wisp leading her enemies to their own ruin.
Abilities:
- Trigger Treat!: Holding out one purple gloved hand, a puff of smoke and confetti conjures a shotgun like blast of wrapped hard candy from the angel digimon's hand. The candies impact like the pellets out of a gun and serve as the primary attack for the young candy angel. (0 Post Cooldown)
- Hot Fudge!: Slashing one finger through the air like using an invisible paint brush, Luxmon splatters out a line of hot fudge that clings to the opponent. Scalding hot and impossibly sticky, the substance will cling to even the smoothest of surfaces for a small while, limiting movement and causing intense pain (Burns and Sticks for 2 posts, 3 post cooldown)
- Fresh Baked!: Luxmon vanishes in a puff of smoke like the kind that would rise out of a perfect warmed oven full of treats. The smoke smells good and strong enough to mislead anyone attempting to use her scent to track her as well as covering the area in the thick mist to allow her to slip about unseen (Covers a 10 foot dome in mist for 2 turns, fowls up scent tracking, 3 post cooldown)
- Jaw Breaker!: Luxmon produces a large, fist sized jaw breaker that shines and shimmers with the shell of its fruity candy shape. Tossing it underhanded it spins through the air before landing with a massive weight and an explosion, hitting like a cannonball and serving as this digimon's hail mary attack (3 post cooldown)
Digivolves From: N/A
Digivolves To:
Human Spirit
Species: Shortmon
Appearance:
Rather than being made of the spongy or moist cake one might expect from a Shortmon, Cocoa's shortmon form is shiny and solid even at a glance. Made of much sterner stuff like frosting and nougat shaped into the form of the large cake like head of her digimon form. Even the strawberries that make up her head are actually large, hard sugar candies made to expertly resemble the real fruit right up until one lays hands on them and feels their consistency.

Especially so that the attacker will not disturb those who might be under the protection of her hospitality.
Abilities:
- Toffee Hammer!: Pulls a single handed hammer or mallet out from behind her back and attacks with it in a wide and harsh downward swing. Molded after the small hammers that would be used to break classically made toffee or other table sweets, on closer inspection it can be seen that the hammer itself is MADE of a thick and sturdy toffee that despite its perfect taste and smell can stand up to any punishment as a weapon (0 Post Cooldown)
- Sprinkle Shower!: Causes a rainbow colored cloud to appear over her opponents that rains rainbow sprinkles onto the attacker. Rather than attacking straight away there is a small delay as the sprinkled sugar clings to skin or fur and then, at Cocoa's command detonates from every side of her opponent in an explosive blast (Must wait 1 Post between attack and detonation, 3 Post Cooldown)
- Bon-Bomb!: Produces a large chocolate bon-bon that she lifts over her head and tosses at her opponent that explodes in a large conflagration sending rubble and debris in every direction (2 Post Cooldown)
- Gummy Wyrm!: Throws her hands forward, conjuring a large, animated dragon made of gummy candy that wraps itself around her opponent and squeezes like a large constrictor snake. The gummy golem is made to fit the opponent's height, pinning their arms and legs together for a short time (1 post binding effect, 2 post cooldown)
- Sour Shot!: Fires a large candy ball made of an covered by a layer of powdered sour acid that explodes into a clinging cloud on contact with the target. Getting in eyes and filling noses with a sour, acrid powder that quickly turns to sticky, running liquid. (Causes pain and befouls sight and smell for 2 posts, 4 post cooldown)
- Frosting Fake!: Forms a complete three dimensional duplicate of herself out of colored frosting that appears in a puff of powdered sugar. If crushed, broken or otherwise bashed into it breaks to reveal an interior of sticky, gooey cream that will hold an opponent to the spot. This is most often used as a decoy, baiting her enemies into attacking it and then leaving themselves stuck in the mucky mire for her to either escape or take advantage of their compromised position. (1 post binding effect, 2 post 75% speed drop OPT)
