Background/History: hayla-Shayla is one of the three Chief Priestess of Mount Muldoon. Aged 19, she’s fiery and temperamental, much like the element she commands.

Personality/Motivation: Shayla-Shayla is your classic anime red-head, right down to the tanned skin and passionate expression of her emotions. Hot-headed, she’s prone to acting first and thinking later, and will gleefully tackle any foe head on (including masses of Bugrom and Ifurita). However, she’s not totally a fool, and will listen to tactics and reason (at least until the fight starts) and knows when she’s out-matched (see her first fight with Ifurita).

Although her initial meeting with Makoto was less than stellar (he fell into her breasts, she blew up the hot springs), his willingness to sacrifice himself to protect her from Ifurita results in her falling in love with him. Of course, as Makoto is already smitten with Ifurita, this goes no where (other than to put her at odds with Nanami). Shayla-Shayla also ends up as one of Alielle’s objects of affection, much to her distaste and displeasure. Her usual response to this is to go drinking with Fujiswawa.

Quotes: "Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Get ready! Hey! Hey!"

"You think you can get away from me, Shayla-Shayla, you must be dreaming."

Powers/Tactics: Shayla-Shayla’s powers, as seen in El-Hazard, is why I abandoned any attempt at simulating how the Lamps appeared in the anime. In brief, at several points Shayla-Shayla exhibited fire powers without having her Lamp on or active. Since I have no idea exactly how the Lamps work, or how Shayla-Shayla’s powers (or any of the three Priestesses powers) work, I decided to create the Lamps in the fashion I’ve presented here, which I think captures the idea of their being relics rather nicely.

Shayla-Shayla carries the Lamp of Fire, which is normally kept in a pouch strapped to one thigh. Whens she needs to use it, she takes it out, attaches it to a bracket on one wrist and then pulls the rip-cord. This powers up the Lamp and allows Shayla-Shayla to manifest and control masses of fire.

When using the Lamp, Shayla-Shayla tends to active the North Capital Technique, which surrounds her body with a flaming aura. She then will leap at her foes, performing apparent Move-Bys and Move-Throughs. She can also project a wide variety of fire bolts (including multiple shot bursts, explosions, and cutting lines), produce flames around her hands (and presumably her feet) to assist her in hand-to-hand combat, create localized walls of fire, manipulate masses of fire, and detect local fires.

Appearance: The shortest of the Priestesses, is roughly Nanami’s height. As stated, she has the classic “anime redhead” look, with tanned skin, green eyes, and a wild mop of long red hair (kept out of her eyes with a headband and tied into a pony tail). Small white tattoos are on her cheeks.

Shayla-Shayla’s costume consists of low black boots, with a short-skirted, short-sleeved dress in various shades of red. She also wears elbow pads and fingerless gloves. Blue gems are set into her clothes in various spots, anchoring her energy flares when she activates her powers. They will also manifest bursts of blue flame when she’s angry or upset.

Designer's Notes: This write-up is derived from the El-Hazard resource book from Guardians of Order. The characteristic and powers were adapted from the resource book and then further modified by the author.

At 497 points, Shayla-Shayla is pretty middle-of the road with regards to the power level of the Priestesses. She might have more powers, however, such as an Explosive Blast Triggered by landing after a Leap (probably with Personal Immunity). It’s also possible she can generate fire of such intensity it qualifies as a Killing Attack.
