PRT Threat Assessment: Furina de Fontaine (Patreon)

Note: This is pretty big spoilers for Genshin 4.2, and this is also basically a draft. I may alter this in the future when the time to include Furina actually comes, but people wanted to know, so here it is. 

Furina de Fontaine performs live at the Palais Garnier in Le Petit Océnide, December 12th 2006

Cape Name: N/A

Civilian Name: Furina de Fontaine

Alias: None

Disposition: Thespian

Location: The primary residence is her flat in Paris, France, though she has frequently toured. Furina is not hard to track, as she seems addicted to social media.

General Information: Furina de Fontaine grew up in the region of Aquitaine, France, near a small village named Lugo. Not much of interest took place in her life for the first two decades of existence, though it is known she was raised by her Uncle, a judge named Neuvillette. The man passed away sometime in the early 2000s. Debts piled up, and Furina sold what little possessions she had and moved to Paris, France, in the hopes of becoming a successful actor.

She met with little initial success, staying with various acquaintances and distant relatives, acquiring a few small roles of no note in her first few months. Despite her innate talent and good looks, Furina was lost amidst a sea of young women who also sought to break out in the dwindling Parisian entertainment scene.

However, in a twist of fate, Furina became one of the first to receive what is now termed a “Hydro Vision,” which instantly attracted attention. Furina began to display the now codified Vision Holder powers (see documentation: Parahuman vs. Vision Holder, and Hydro Visions) and used these to secure several roles. Her natural skills combined with the abilities granted to Vision Holders soon propelled Furina to the top of the billing list as a performer, along with her flamboyant personality and use of social media.

Furina is now France’s most darling actress and has helped revitalize the theater and opera industries. She has starred in several operas, the most famous of which is of course Le Petit Océnide, which is being made into a major motion picture. Furina has displayed little interest in engaging in cape activities, and aside from a few fans and one minor villain who attempted to harass her, she has never used her powers in actual combat. Ratings depicted are thus largely conjectural, though they have been vetted by Thinker analysis.

Everything we thought we knew about Furina is a lie. None of this can be made public. The Protectorate and PRT have erred greatly. Furina is to be classified as an Archon level threat. I repeat, Archon level threat. - Director Costa-Brown

Mover 2, Shaker 3, Brute 1, Breaker 2, Master 4

Mover 2: Furina has demonstrated the ability to walk on water, which in some situations could potentially make her difficult to deal with. Additionally, she appears to be able to breathe underwater, an ability not uncommon for Hydro Vision holders. In everyday situations, both of these abilities are not major obstacles but should be kept in mind if a team needs to contain her.

Shaker 3: As with all Hydro Vision holders, Furina displays a level of Hydrokenesis. Her abilities are not particularly remarkable, but she can still move fairly substantial amounts of water at pressures that could prove dangerous. She can also pull some amount of water from the air or ambient sources, so even in locations where a direct source is not present, she is still somewhat of a threat.

Brute 1: As with all Vision Holders, Furina has slightly above human norm endurance, durability, and reflexes. She does not appear to be at all trained in any sort of combat techniques, though she has taken fencing lessons for stage performances. She also is likely to have some sort of regenerative abilities, though these have never been demonstrated. While Furina has proven more than capable of handling unruly fans, she has never shown any inclination or skill at fighting, but would be harder to put down than a baseline human.

Master 4: Furina’s most notable ability is that she can conjure up several constructs made of water, the names of which are quite famous, though if this is simply an affectation of Furina’s or if she is actually capable of manifesting permanent semi-aware hydro constructs isn’t known.

-Gentilhomme Usher: an octopus wearing a top hat, seems to be capable of firing spheres of water hard enough to cause minor injuries.

-Surintendante Chevalmarin: a seahorse with a bow on her head, also capable of firing bolts of water.

-Mademoiselle Crabaletta: a crab with a bonnet, fires bolts of water and seems capable of using claws to manipulate small objects and exert a degree of force that could cause injury.

-Singer of Many Waters: A jellyfish like creature that Furina calls an “Oceanid”. It seems to have some sort of regenerative field that can heal minor wounds, though Furina mostly uses it to perform duets with.

All the constructs seem to follow Furina’s orders, and to exist independently of her, though they never stray more than a few hundred meters from their mistress. They feature in the popular French children’s television show, “Mademoiselle Furina’s Salon Solitaire.” In a hypothetical combat scenario, it’s likely these constructs would prove extremely difficult to handle for the average PRT trooper, as with most elemental constructs. Use of containment foam is unlikely to work, but another Vision holder of a different element would easily deal with them, as would most parahumans.

Recommended Strategies: Furina is not considered a threat, and while she is a Vision Holder, this document primarily exists because of her fame. In most situations, a single team of unpowered agents, or even one particularly skilled PRT trooper, should be able to deal with any supposed threat posed by Furina. The largest threat are her constructs, which are not particularly dangerous. Due to her popularity with the public, lethal measures against Furina are heavily discouraged, and indeed, the best case scenario where Furina becomes belligerent, would be to disengage and let the spoiled brat throw her temper tantrum, then bill her later for the damages. Her bank account can handle it.

To sum up: Evacuate civilians if necessary, slap her in handcuffs, and stuff her in the drunk tank if she becomes a problem.
