			Finley was contacted by HORUS Cell “Hotline” to create an anti-Harrison Armory mech, and they agreed. The result was the HORUS Phoenix, which brutally punishes other mechs for having high Heat. They reset their Licenses to better accommodate the Phoenix and haven’t gone back to their previous, support-focused distribution. Finley still has their previous Onion mech, but it’s no longer their immediate choice when they need to pilot.
	Finley pilots a SCRAPPER Onion named “Workshop”. Workshop doubles as Finley’s space for inventing; the interior has heat and paracausal reinforcements to keep it stable even in the midst of intense forging. Though this mech is rarely taken into combat, it is a reliable companion when it is (especially according to Torin).

	They played Storm, a Fighter. Storm started the series with a martyr complex, wanting to live up to the legacy of the Mockingbirds: a group of underground revolutionaries who took them in as a child, only to be slaughtered en masse by the assassins who worked for the kingdom’s corrupt queen. Storm saw martyrdom as the only way they could atone for their past weakness. As the story went on, their will to live was reignited, and they decided to carry on the Mockingbirds’ legacy by opening an orphanage.		They played Storm, a Fighter.

	He played Clarity, a Sorcerer. Clarity was a member of the Queen’s Academy for Mages and a talented magic-user who was set to acquire a high position in the queen’s court. Unfortunately, a rival sorcerer set him up to take the fall for the destruction of a priceless artifact and he had to go on the run. Clarity’s arc revolved around seeing the damage the queen and nobility had wrought upon the kingdom. He renounced the Academy and played a major hand in its elimination, declaring that the rest of the Queen’s Mages would either open their eyes or be destroyed.		He played Clarity, a Sorcerer.

	She played Phelia, a Cleric. Due to being the subject of blasphemous occult rituals when she was younger, Phelia developed a bloodlust that would emerge at inopportune times. She wanted so desperately to avoid becoming the worst version of herself that she avoided anger and violence like the plague, even when they were appropriate. Phelia’s arc focused on her learning to allow herself to process negative emotions and take an aggressive stand against corruption (both spiritual and political).		She played Phelia, a Cleric.

	With the Collective’s help, Vida acquired a body and gave herself the name Glory. However, being liberated didn’t mean that Vida wanted to stop fighting. It wasn’t long before she had a Blackbeard of her very own and was piloting it alongside Halo. No one who knew them was surprised when the two of them started dating and later got married. Unfortunately, the worst came to pass. During one anti-HORUS mission, Vida allowed her Sekhmet protocol to call the shots while Halo’s mech was too close. Halo didn’t survive. The truth of the incident was muddled afterward. Whether this was because of the chaos of the battle or Horizon Collective’s efforts to keep Vida as a combatant is unknown.

	After the death of her wife, Vida spent the next several years considering how to express herself outside of violence. She practiced various forms of movement, from pilates to salsa to capoeira. Vida discovered that she loved dancing and, through a chance application, she got involved with the entertainment troupe Dance On My Grave in the Varuvi star system. Her involvement with DOMG led her to be selected by Horizon Collective as a cast member for Legions & Legionnaires. They wanted to show off a Sekhmet who could see meaning outside bloodshed (while simultaneously using her as a top combatant praised for her controlled killer instinct). Before the show started filming, Vida also encountered the Volador [[WHISPER\|Arturo (callsign: WHISPER)]] during one of DOMG’s performances. They quickly became such good friends that he suggested she take the name Vida instead because it meant life in Voladorese.

By [https://www.artstation.com/rojo92 rojo92]. ]]After Legions & Legionnaires aired, Vida continued to work as a Horizon Collective member, but the dissonance between her roles as a performer and a relentless murderer caused her to “lose her killer instinct” and retire for about a year. An encounter with two Lancers hired by the Collective and a HORUS ambush resulted in her releasing her urge to kill again and rejoining HC. Now, Vida mainly lives on Varuvi and has taken on the dual roles of dancer and killer once more. However, according to her, it’s always a performance either way.

	She took on the role of Game Master. Although Esther was responsible for playing every other character in the world rather than a player character, she is considered to have had her own arc of sorts near the end of the show. Episodes 24-27 are considered the “Sisyphus Arc” by fans. During these episodes, Esther broke her self-imposed rule about not using her abilities to predict what the others were going to do. She became increasingly depressed. This culminated in a stand off where the characters were trapped in the queen’s castle and the players were in a room with an Esther who seemed close to cascading. In a widely clipped and shared scene, Esther asked the players both as the queen and as herself if they “had any idea how long she had spent wanting to relive so many conversations”. Vida asked “how long” and Esther replied “I wish I could forget”. In a behind the scenes segment, Esther apologized and revealed that she had remembered timelines that she experienced during a previous cascade, but wouldn’t say more on the matter.
