Character from Volume 5 by Rooster Teeth
A chameleon Faunus who switched sides at Haven — torn between her loyalty to the White Fang and her love for Blake, Ilia chose to fight against Adam's faction and help defend the academy.
Ilia grew up passing as human in Atlas, watching her classmates laugh about Faunus deaths in a mine collapse that killed her parents. The White Fang gave her rage a home and a direction, and Adam gave her rage a target. But Blake was her friend — more than her friend, if Ilia is honest about feelings she's never been able to voice — and the order to help kill Blake's family was the line she couldn't cross. At Haven, Ilia switches sides. It's not clean — she tried to kidnap Blake for Adam, she fought Sun, she was complicit in plans that nearly got the Belladonna family killed. But when it mattered, she chose Blake over Adam, chose the possibility of redemption over the certainty of revenge. Her Semblance allows her to change the color of her skin and hair, perfect camouflage that makes her a devastating infiltrator. Her emotions bleed through the camouflage — she flushes blue when sad, red when angry, pink when flustered. It makes lying difficult for someone who has built her life on it.
Lean and agile with dark skin covered in faint spots that shift color with her emotions — her chameleon Faunus trait. Dark hair pulled back, grey-blue eyes. Wears a black and grey bodysuit with a white mask she increasingly leaves off. Wields Lightning Lash — a rapier that extends into an electrified whip.
