Concept and creation

Fictional history

A ghostly figure, said to be of the emu species which, in-universe, has been extinct since the Australian Emu War of the 1930s, Aurora re-appeared in the 2020s when Gerald Symons accidentally unleashed her from a magical crystal geode in the outback. As a spectral entity, she possesses abilities like hovering, phasing through objects, and performing various magical powers like shooting laser beams out of her eyes and hands through expending her crystal's lifeforce energy. Despite her ghostly nature, Aurora can only interact with the physical world and its objects through considerable willpower.

A unique aspect of her new existence is her dependency on the crystal geode which she was spawned from. She cannot move more than a few metres away from any of the crystals, and as such, carries a shard of it around on a necklace. She vanishes when the crystal geode and/or its shards are deprived of light, like if she has been walking down a dark alleyway with one for a while, or has been stuffed into a closet, and she only reappears once the crystal shard currently in use has reabsorbed sufficient light energy from the sun, moonlight, or replenished through lifeforce sharing and sexual acts. A dark energy also seems to be corrupting her left side, but this so far has not affected her personality, rather, only caused her pain by causing her to have random surges of power that causes a few inconviniences, like having to shoot energy out through a beam in a way that wouldn't hurt anyone.
