Through the Frosted Mirror

When an ordinary gamer wakes up in the body of Ellen Joe, a high schooler and an elite member of Victoria Housekeeping Co., life takes a bizarre turn. Known for tackling everything from cleaning and yardwork to securing rare items and fighting off monsters, the company operates more like a covert squad than a housekeeping service. Caught between school deadlines and deadly Hollow missions, the protagonist struggles to maintain Ellen’s demanding dual life. Armed with Ellen’s ice-infused scissors and sharp wit, they navigate a world of high-stakes combat and meticulous chores while trying to keep their true identity hidden. But as Ellen’s habits and instincts creep into their own, the line between their life and hers begins to blur.

New Weapons and Fused Mode!!!

Features of the Improved Giant Scissors!

Integrated Ice Abilities:

Freezing Blades: Each strike can freeze enemies or create ice trails on the battlefield.

Ice Constructs: Temporary structures, such as barriers or stepping platforms, can be formed in combat (more thing's will be added in the future).

Chain Whip Transformation: The scissors' blades can separate, connected by a flexible, glowing Ether chain. In this form, Ellen gains range and unpredictability in combat.

Whip Strikes: Wide, sweeping attacks to clear groups of enemies or strike from a distance.

Binding Grapple: The whip can entangle foes, freezing them in place or pulling them toward her.

Dynamic Tactics: Ellen can use the chain for mobility, swinging across gaps or pulling herself to higher ground.

Adaptive Ether Design: The scissors glow faintly with two Ether colors, one representing Ellen's original icy calm and the other the fiery determination of the protagonist. The weapon responds to emotional states, flaring brighter during intense moments or attacks.

Symbolic Aesthetic: Subtle shark motifs, such as fin-like edges on the blades or wave-like patterns on the chains, nod to Ellen's Thiren traits. The Ether chain glows with soft blue light, giving it a fluid, almost water-like appearance in motion.

Combat Flow: Close Combat: Use the scissors for precision, cutting down enemies with controlled ice-infused strikes.

Mid-to-Long Range: Switch to chain whip mode to keep enemies at bay, disable ranged opponents, or create environmental advantages with ice.

Tactical Versatility: Combine modes to adapt quickly in battle, switching between defensive and offensive strategies as needed.

Blades with Chain Dynamics: The scissors retain their core shape but are now enhanced with flexible segments connected by Ether threads, allowing fluid motion while remaining a cohesive cutting tool. This hybrid design allows Ellen to perform sweeping strikes and precise cuts simultaneously.

Ice-Ether Synergy: Every swing and slice leaves an icy trail, creating an area-of-effect attack. The chain segments can extend mid-strike, adding reach and unpredictability, then retract seamlessly for tighter control. Combos integrate freezing slashes and whip-like strikes, overwhelming foes with relentless and varied attacks.

Tethered Scissor Strikes: Ellen can detach one blade from the scissors, tethered by the Ether chain, allowing her to use the detached blade as a flying weapon while maintaining control of the remaining blade. This technique enables ranged slicing attacks that return to her like a boomerang or hover momentarily to defend or distract.

Symbolic Aesthetic: When in hybrid mode, the weapon glows with a dual-layered aura, blending the protagonist's fiery determination with Ellen's icy focus. The shark motif becomes more pronounced, with the detached blade resembling a shark fin swimming through the air, representing Ellen's Thiren traits and her dual nature.

Combat Flow in Fused Mode!

Balanced Offense and Defense:

Ellen can seamlessly switch between close-range and mid-range attacks without changing modes. For example, she can lock an enemy with the whip and deliver a devastating ice-laden scissor slash.

Area Control:

The hybrid's reach and power allow Ellen to dominate the battlefield, creating zones of frost and chaining enemies together for multi-target takedowns.

Signature Move: Frozen Maw

Ellen swings the fused weapon in a wide arc, creating a shark-like Ether construct that charges forward, freezing everything in its path before snapping shut in a final icy explosion.

Here's a little tease of what's to come.

Gotta make her stand out more to help her feel alive.

This is the final update for the day so Im'a go to bed now so see ya and goodnight!
