He’s a spoiled rich kid who isn’t all there, meet the H of Team GTHC, Haller Nihil
Name- Haller Nihil
Weapon- Ivory Wisdom (A bow which can fold down into a fan. Haller creates his own Light Arrows)
Semblance- Light manipulation (He can deflect, aim and make solid constructs from light)
Backstory- Born in the highest levels of Mistral, Haller’s family, the Nihil, are some of Remnants most affluent and culturally elite. From a young age Haller was exposed to some of the greatest actors, singers and dancers in all of remnant, aspiring to become an actor when he grew up, while also taking up archery.
As a child, he and his parents went on a walk in a cave system in the mountains of Mistral. Things went wrong when they accidently awoke a King Taijitu Grimm. While his parents fled, Haller was left behind. Facing death, Haller’s semblance of light manipulation awoke in full force, blinding the deadly Grimm, and allowing him the chance to escape the cave. However, the fierce burst of light he created affected his aura, causing it to permanently deflect all light from his body, rendering his body permanently invisible.
His parents used their wealth to acquire a completely malleable mask and gloves for Haller, allowing him to maintain some visibility while also being able to see. His dreams of acting squandered, Haller instead decided to put his notably powerful semblance to use. His parents acquired a weapon for him, and used their resources to allow him to bypass the entrance exam, and go straight to training at Haven Academy.
In training, Haller proved not to be the greatest fighter, but possessed a keen skill in using his semblance, alongside being an adept archer. Haller was grouped up with Grant Braun, Trachelia Reichenbach and Cerise Nautilus, forming Team GTHC (pronounced GTHC). Once his time at Haven was complete, Haller and the rest of Team GTHC graduated from Haven, deciding to travel across Anima, taking any jobs that cross their paths along the way.
Haller is undoubtedly the easiest to dislike out of Team GTHC. His snobbish and snarky personality leads him to be the butt of a lot of team members pranks, with his reactions being less than sporting. He can also show a lack of respect for the different backstories of his teammates, seeing Grant as an urchin underqualified to be leader, possessing a rivalry of 'oneupmanship' with Trachelia, and being at times intolerant of Cerise’s faunus nature (though she usually takes it in good stride). While his negative traits are quite visible, Haller is still a team player, showing a strong respect for the skills of his many members, and sharing a bizarre friendship with his polar-opposite Cerise.
Like all members of Team GTHC, Haller is based on a character from 1800s British fiction, in his case ‘The Invisible Man’ by HG Wells. His connections to Griffin from the story are less convoluted then most other members, namely the fact that he’s invisible and Griffin’s more maniacal tendencies translating into Haller being a bit of a pill.
My sister-in-law, Laura, has been living with us in the UK since the start of the lockdown. She's a professional triathlete looking forward to competing in races around the world. Hopefully she'll get her wish soon.

First SPW Classic gun of mine, a semi-auto shotty, with integral tube mag. In this case a standard magazine adapter is fitted, and the tube spring is locked by the switch at the front. Also features an advanced RDS on an elevated rail, thumbhole stippled grip with grip computer, and force deflecting stock to reduce muzzle climb.
Notwithstanding its luxurious equipment - two-tone paintwork, bumpers, and side deflectors - this attractive 1925 Chrysler Series B-70 roadster was far less expensive than its European competitors.
As from 1924, the make's year of birth, Chrysler was the first to equip its models with hydraulic brakes, supplied by Lockheed. During the first few years they offered a choice of models, but with only one engine version. This was a high compression 3.5 litre 6-cylinder unit with side valves and removable oil filter.
This car is on display at Autoworld, Belgium’s national motor museum, in Brussels.
~email from a friend, the morning after the night before
You Beach!!!
So Baju was trying to hit on you, was he, and you sacrificed my honour and body by deflecting him towards me!?
And lying at the same time!? How could you, you shameless heartless hussy!?
Call yourself a friend.....
AND you forgot the cereal? Ha!
Actually darling I was totally stuffed to the gunnels/gunwales (delete according to preference), and couldn't have managed the cereal as well, and not even a wafffeur thin mint!
So, in conclusion, I think only red spanking or whipping marks are appropriate for the under chef, "because the Iady LOVES a milky lay".

Hi Julie (and Kat),
Delighted to have delivered much merriment, and my lawyer is at this very moment creating the contract for you to have the rights to my bon mots and to facilitate the payment of royalties by the aforementioned person (i.e. you!).
A question for you Dear Heart....
Did I by any chance leave a couple of small makeup glass dispensers in one of your rooms, as I haven't seen my Lacura creams, for face and eyes, since I visited you?
Your Fellow Cougar,
Samantha xxxx

DOH!!!!!
What a silly beach I am.
Are you planning on partying anywhere soon - such as CGs?
To allow me to see you again and to pick up my missing links to beauty...
Your involuntary storage client,

F-35C Lightning II carrier variant aircraft CF-2 is performing Jet Blast Deflector (JBD) tests at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in New Jersey.
Maunsell S15 No. 847 running minus its smoke deflectors at Sharpthorne on the Bluebell Railway. The first batch of Maunsell S15s would have appeared in this condition when first built, however by the time No.847 was constructed in 1936 as the last of the second batch, the deflector plates had been introduced and this locomotive was fitted with them from new.
Jason bursts through the window and shoots and Batman. Batman deflects with his cape. Jason punches Joker in the face and he knocks him out. Batman looks back up again and he sees Jason standing before a knocked out Joker, with his guns pointed at him.
BM: "Jason..."
RH: "Were you too afraid to come and look for me yourself? You had to send your favourite didn't you?"
BM: "I did not send Dick. We had an argument and he went out on his own."
RH: "Oeh, so I made you and your number one son fight, did I?"
BM: "Dick is not number one. I love you both equally!"
RH: "Then why, in God's name, is HE still alive!"
BM: "Because, if we go down that path-"
RH: "You won't come back from it, I know. Dick told me the exact same thing. You two really are the same."
BM: "Don't you see a pattern here? When I say that, and your brother says that? You must know it's true."
RH: "He's not my brother! And I'm not talking about Scarecrow, Riddler, Penguin or Two-Face! I'm talking about him! Just him... He took me away from you. I can't let him take anyone from anyone else. I need to do this."
BM: "Jason! I know I should've killed him. I've been thinking about it all the time. The whole family has. But why do you think we didn't?"
RH: "Because you don't have the balls to kill."
BM: "Because I don't want to become like him. I don't want to become a mentally ill murderer who only does what he does because it's funny. That's why I can't go down that path, I just can't, because I'm afraid I'll become just like him. That's why I don't want you to do it either."
RH: "....You know what. I'll let it slide this time. I understand your point, but he does NOT deserve to live."
BM: "I know, he'll rot away in Arkham, for everything he has done."
RH: "I'm keeping you on that one."
BM: "I understand."
Jason starts to leave.
BM: "Jason."
RH: "Yeah?"
Bruce throws a comlink at him. Jason catches it.
BM: "When you ever need us, don't be afraid to ask for it."
Jason looks at the comlink and than looks back at Bruce.
RH: "I will. Is this a two way line?"
BM: "Yeah, why?"
RH: "Remember the times in the manor, when I would be afraid of the thunder and you would talk me to sleep?"
BM: "Yeah?"
RH: "I'm still afraid of thunder."
Batman looks at Jason and he smiles.
RH: "When you ever need extra help fighting these psycho's, don't be afraid to call either. And don't worry, I'll use rubber bullets."
BM: "I will. Have a good night Jason."
RH: "In the field it's Red Hood, Batsy."
Jason jumps out of the window. Batman stands over the Joker. He picks up the Joker and smacks him in the face so he would wake up.
Jkr: "Ouch! Wuh- what happened?"
BM: "You got beaten on, that's what happened."
Jkr: "Awh crap, really?"
BM: "Just keep moving."
926 Repton in charge of goods train at Esk Valley, it was running without smoke deflectors for the duration of the Gala.
Due to complaints about the cramped cockpit and relatively light armor of the initial Doughboy, IHI created the MCF-20B model.
Nicknamed the "Puffy Doughboy" the new side armor panels were curved to provide more space while deflecting incoming fire, and the arms and shoulders were redesigned to accommodate the new core shape.

This render was pretty challenging. For some reason the light in the deflector dish refused to focus solely on when the actual dish (in reality a round stud) is.
“Overall view of light. LCC and 39A.”
I don’t know where/how “they” came up with “LCC”.
Based on the date, the Saturn V on the pad is the SA-500F Facilities Verification Vehicle.
Note the rust, the fuzzy thing stuck to the tire on the left & plenty of other visual clues…this wonderful relic was a World War II era searchlight, likely pulled out of storage. I love it.
Note also the embossed General Electric logo at the center of the light’s housing. I don’t know my searchlights; however, based on the following:

It also looks to be a GE ‘Model 1942-A’.
Finally, note also the flame deflector in the background to its right – along with its size – damn! That’s a full size crane next to/in front of it!
The gorgeous, magnificent & glorious Saturn V…she rules to this day.

by Wendell Berry.......Thank you Michael.............""There are, it seems, two muses: the Muse of Inspiration, who gives us inarticulate visions and desires, and the Muse of Realization, who returns again and again to say "It is yet more difficult than you thought." This is the muse of form. It may be then that form serves us best when it works as an obstruction, to baffle us and deflect our intended course. It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work and when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey. The mind that is not baffled is not employed. The impeded stream is the one that sings."

A wonderfully creative perspective of a Saturn V launch, before such ever occurred. That determination based on the similarity of the paint scheme to that of the SA-500F Facilities Verification Vehicle. Thus, also the date approximation.
Another extremely talented & enigmatic NASA artist, who, posthumously, ONLY because of the method of his ‘burial’ has a marker of his legacy, both personally & professionally. A little vexingly, one of the artists that modified his signature over time, from block letters/informal first name, to cursive/full first name. To me, sort of contradictory combinations & kind of clever. If they’re even the same person that is.
Rest in Peace Good Sir:

Proudly sporting "German style" trough smoke-deflectors at York (50A) MPD is Gresley LNER A3 4-6-2 60054 (formerly named "Prince of Wales") of 1924 vintage - 20/06/1964.
Nearing the end of its BR service, 60054 was withdrawn from New England (34W) shed just eight days later on 28/06/1964. It is believed to have been scrapped by A King & Sons Ltd, of Norwich during August of the same year.

Had to replace our old landline. I call this our "Spam Deflector!"
Tim dodged the Middleman’s bullet, which nearly hit Jason before lodging itself in the door behind them. The swing of his staff combined with the dodge of the bullet carried him around the projectile’s trajectory, allowing him to knock the gun from the elderly woman’s hand. Standing back for a moment, Tim composed himself and said,
“Look, I don’t want to hurt you. Just answer our-” The Middleman responded by grabbing a small knife from her belt and throwing it at Tim. He deflected it before the elderly woman began running for the back of the store. Turning to Jason, Tim exclaimed, “C’mon! Do something!” Before running towards the escaping woman. Jason, even under his mask, was visibly conflicted before drawing one of the taser guns Tim had given him from his belt. Reaching the door just before the Middleman, Tim vaulted onto the wall in order to launch off it onto the woman. However, she quickly dodged this, instead being hit by a blast from Jason’s taser gun. Shaking uncontrollably from the electric shock, she attempted to compose herself while blocking a swing from Tim’s staff. Judging by the strength and her ability to dodge, Tim deduced that there was more to her than they had initially seen. Scanning her with his mask’s capabilities he was able to see a strange sort of green liquid pulsating within her blood stream, something not seen in the average nervous system. As he thought this however, Tim was hit by a punch that certainly bruised a decent chunk of his left cheek. Stumbling back, he was nearly hit again before Jason let out a cry of anger and launched himself at the Middleman. He was able to knock her into one of the assembly lines the vacuums were created on before lifting her into the air and slamming her onto it. Stumbling back, he breathed heavily, and Tim approached him cautiously. It only took Jason a moment to compose himself however, before he once again raised his taser gun to the woman, saying,
“Alright…I’ve got killer Bea Arthur…you check the place out…” Tim nodded, rubbing his cheek for a moment, causing Jason to ask, “You ok?” Tim nodded again before disappearing into the back room. Upon entering, Tim found several dozen computers, each either monitoring a different room in the shop, a room in someone’s house, or revealing conversations between the Middleman and clients. One such conversation was with a person with the email address ‘JackKubrick237’, and was comprised of them asking the Middleman for the virtual reality headgear. According to the order, they had ordered three of them, and with the e-mail seemingly still active, Tim activated his comm to say,
“Al, we got passed the black market guy…er…girl…lady. I have an e-mail conversation between Film Freak and them, we might be able to find him this way. Sending the address now.” After a moment, Alfred responded,
“Very good, sir, it seems with this address the Batcomputer was able to find the location where Mr. Weston sent the e-mail. Sending it to you now.” As Tim received the address, he said,
“Thanks Al, I’ll be in touch.” Before hanging up and looking at another conversation, one between the Middleman and someone going by ‘JG24601’. The Middleman had sent this person several photographs and paragraphs of detail on what seemed to be Jason Todd and a woman accompanying him. Hearing a shock outside and a thud, Tim turned to see Jason walking in, saying,
“I was checking out a green pouch she had on her back, it was pumping some weird liquid into her bloodstream. Looked kinda familiar. Anyways she got up and tried to attack me again so I kinda shocked her pretty bad. Like, might not, I mean hopefully won’t, remember anything. Ever. Ah well, whatever it takes to clean up the streets…what is it?” Tim pointed to the conversation on the screen. Jason took a moment to read it before saying, “Can I please kill again? Just her?” Tim actually smirked at this, before Jason picked up a flashdrive the Middleman had lying around and began to download all that she had on the mysterious ‘JG24601’, pausing only to say, “This surprisingly has everything to do with what we’re doing right now. This guy’s got what we need. And now…we know everything about him as well.” He said just as the files finished downloading. Sighing for a moment, Jason said, “Ok, how about you take Middleman here to the cops, I’ll go back home and start downloading this to add to what we already have, and then you can stop by for a bit.”
“Where do you live now?” Tim asked.
“Blaze Comics. Not too far away. You won’t miss it. So…deal?” Jason asked with his hand stuck out. Tim shook it before the two exited the building, but not before picking up the Middleman and taking her with them.
