DGM OC: Drek - Adrenaline Rush

I've been meaning to make some kind of epic drawing of Drek using her innocence, so I finally got around to it!

Something I appreciate about digital art is my ability to play around with colors to convey what I intended. As an example, I've always imagined Drek's innocence, Mondstein Klampen, to have a sort of ethereal glow or hue of colors depending on the lighting, so in this case I added in the hues of pink and blue I always imagined, and it turned out just as I wanted it to ^^

On a different note, I made a background for once...Damn I hate backgrounds XD But I'm hoping it really adds to the speed I was trying to convey by her pose, like how she skids against the grass

Name- Audre Kale Cherresbury (Nicknamed Drek)
_{Drek is her self-given nickname. She wanted to be different from her family, whose names all begin with "A". This can be read in her backstory.}

Age- 19

Height- 5'11"

Occupation- Exorcist(current), Noble(former, family owned important railways in Germany)

Employer- Black Order(current), C&D Railways(former)

Branch- European (grew up in Germany)

Backstory 
Drek was born named Audre Kale Cherresbury into a high class family with her three siblings: Alexander(older brother), Autumn(older sister), and Avery(younger sister). Her parents cherished their first and second born as well as the last, thinking they had the most potential. Audre was third born, and her parents never figured she was bound to accomplish anything. 

Since she was young, Audre always looked up to her older brother, Alexander. Once when she was 5, Alex took Audre out into their town for shopping. This is where she first set her sights on a guitar, being played by a homeless man on the roadside. Audre was fascinated by the instrument and begged her brother to buy one for her. Alex insisted she ask permission from their parents beforehand. However, her mother and father didn't want her playing such an 'uncivilized' instrument, and told her she was only allowed to play either piano or violin. Alex (being the good brother he is), promised Audre he'd secretly buy her a guitar if she mastered the piano or violin first. She wasted no time in learning, and by the time she was 7, had obtained her very first guitar.

Audre's parents eventually found out about the guitar Audre was hiding, and insisted on confiscating it. Her brother Alex(who at this point was going to soon be married), stood up for his sister and refused to take place in his forced marriage if the instrument wasn't returned to her. Their parents wanted the best for their first born child(and only son), and therefore agreed.

The girl's acts of rebelliousness didn't cease with the guitar. Later, at age 12, she abandoned her formal name and changed her name to 'Drek'. Her parent's hated her for going by anything other than the name they gave her, since they wanted all of their children's names to begin with an 'A'. Drek kept her new name, saying she "refused to be a part of a matched set."

Getting tired of their third born child's disobedience, Drek's parents arranged a forced marriage for the 14 year old girl in order to get her out of the house(along with their first and second born kids, who were already married). Drek refused, no matter how sweet the offer. Her older brother paid her a visit to try to convince her to go along with the marriage, since he himself was quite happy with his. In the end, he wound up assisting her in running away from home. He dropped her off with plenty of cash and her guitar strapped to her back; she refused to take anything else from him as she said her goodbyes.

Innocence Info

Equipment Type 
Drek is the accommodator of only one piece of innocence. She has two separate weapons due to an encounter with Tyki Mikk where he is interrupted by Riche Krome as he is in the process of destroying her innocence, thus shattering a fragment of the innocence. In other words, each weapon was forged using shards of the same innocence fragment. The concentration of innocence in each weapon varies. The Moonstone Cleats have a significantly higher concentration of innocence in them verses the gauntlet, therefore the boots are far more powerful. Since the innocence is broken apart and housed within two separate weapons, Drek likely can never reach 100% synchronization rate. _{Note: Drek's weapon is known for its unique quality to have taken on a weaponized form originally without someone to forge it. Since the weapon isn't man-made, it has the same wear and tear on her body as it would a parasite type. This is why she wears guards on her arms and legs for protection against the intense heat caused by the Cleats and the Gauntlet. They also hide her scars of the past when it initially activated.}

Mondstein Klampen (Moonstone Cleats)- (63%)housed within a pair of shoes that when activated turn into motorboots with a large wheel on the back and a smaller one underneath, she can also use the boots to skate at incredible speeds, jump to high heights, and even hover above the ground when the level two is released. She has other functionalities that include the tire sporting large razors that she can use to slice through akuma. She can alter the speed that the wheels spin for added damage and control.

Mondstein Stulpe (Moonstone Gauntlet)- (19%)forged by Riche Krome from a fragment of Mondstein Klampen, when deactivated, it takes the form of a ring on the middle finger. When activated, it transforms into a glove and a bomb forms above the back of the hand that has a magnetic force that keeps the bomb in place. Drek can pull back and release the bomb causing it to take off like a slingshot. The bombs have a large variety of modes and functionalities. She can also use it to punch, creating explosive impact as well as create a grappling hook to swing herself across chasms.

Total Synchronization - 82%

Relationships:
_Lys Silverton- Particularly irritating, finds her very disloyal and tries very hard to hate her. Deep down, she'd still protect her with her life.
_Riche Krome- Always there to fight by her side, trusts her indefinitely. Sometimes finds her to be overly motherly. 
_Jethese Ackers- Cocky, nosy pervert. Deep down she admires his musical talent and intelligence, but won't admit it.
_Allen Walker- A decent person, but a bit too soft for her tastes. She wishes he would show his wild side more often.
_Lenalee Lee- Bitchy and hard to tolerate. Reminds her of Lys' older sister as well as her brother's wife, whom she hates.
_Lavi Bookman- Irritating, reminds her of Jethese, but with less charm and more of a hidden judgmental attitude. Thinks he's stuck up.
_Kanda Yuu- Attractive, but untouchable. She doesn't understand how to get through to him and tries hard to impress him, but to no avail.
_Miranda Lotto- Clumsy and uncoordinated. Skeptical of her kindness initially, but learns to accept it with time.
_Komui Lee- Interesting person, but won't let him near her innocence. Admires his love for Lenalee, even if she hates her.
_Reever Wenham- Reminds her of own brother regarding appearances. Goes to him for advice, but denies needing it later.
_Road Kamelot- Isn't particularly familiar with her or the Noah family, just her uncle.
_Tyki Mikk- Finds him threateningly attractive. Won't admit it, but she's terrified of him beyond belief.
_Bookman- Wrinkly old man, doesn't respect his authority or his analytic expertise.
_Winters Sokalo- Teacher when she arrives at the order. Fucking insane, probably the only person who she obeys.
_Daisya Barry- Attracted to his outgoing nature and not overwhelmed by his intelligence. Enjoys challenging him from time to time.
_Tsamo Esagel- Respects him for disciplining Lys and giving her a purpose, but he confuses her in his profession. She's interested in his work.
