Description THE FINAL PIECE. And only one day early, shame on me.
Where do I start...

Why are they entering Wisp?
Hair and Midge are in it to win it. While they don't have anyone they'd like to see resurrected from the dead, they're curious to see what this "alternate prize" is. (They failed to see Death's message on the way in). But, really, they're just doing it for fun, for adventure! They want to see how far they can make it, improve their own abilities and, ultimately, get that prize.

Personalities/ battle strategies?
Hair is a confident, cocky go-getter. When she sees an enemy, she jumps right in swinging. Sometimes this works to her advantage, but this has also been known to get her into some trouble. She needs to learn to think before she acts.

Midge is much more analytical. Since she's not confident in her abilities yet, she prefers to figure out which way would be easiest to defeat her opponent. However, if Hair has a legitimate plan, she'd much rather follow orders than give them. Back at home, she tended to be a wallflower.

Abilities?
Hair uses brute strength and blunt objects. She's pretty quick and her main approach is hand-to-hand and, preferably, her baseball bat. She can be tactical when she wants, but it's not her strong point.

Midge, being of slight build and having little upper body strength, uses the power of an assortment of magic capsules she keeps in her hoodie pocket. Each capsule is labeled by color and contains an image depicting its ability (There is also an Earth capsule, brown, that I forgot to draw on the reference...). Generally, Midge uses her own hands to smash the capsule and obtain its ability. Many of the abilities are similar to bending from Avatar: The Last Airbender, i.e. she can throw fire from her hands, that sort of thing. The abilities last a relatively short amount of time and, after using a capsule, she has to wait for it to respawn. THE LARGER THE CAPSULE, THE LONGER SHE LETS IT RESPAWN, THE LONGER-LASTING THE ABILITY. Also, she has MULTIPLES of each capsule, maxing out at 3-5 per ability.
FIRE - creates fire, can be manipulated with hands/ can manipulate nearby source
WATER - creates water, can be manipulated with hands/ can manipulate nearby source
AIR - can manipulate air
TELEPATHY - allows brief mind-reading/ predictability, allows brief incept/transfers of thought
ELECTRICITY - creates electric current through extremities/ can manipulate nearby source
SOUND - can manipulate sound/ frequencies
TIME - can briefly manipulate time (this one gets weird)

...More on Midge's abilities?
While Midge generally break the capsules on herself, it is possible for her to transfer the ability on something/someone else, i.e. smashing a fire capsule on an opponent's face may cause flames to erupt. However, throwing a capsule has a much lesser effect than releasing it at point-blank.

What about combining capsule abilities?
Again, Midge still doesn't fully understand their capabilities. She's tried several times to combine powers, but it usually just results in a small explosion and negated effect.

Why are they both entering together, isn't there some rule against that or something?
Separate, both characters are relatively weak. Usually when they fight, they have to use distraction tactics, which is where the other comes in.
I'm not God-modding, promise.

Any more things that need to be answered? Let me know.
(Wish me luck, amigos)

Funny, one has to wonder why the girl with less hair is named Hair. Hehe. The capsules idea is brilliant, too. I have a character with a generally similar concept (nowhere on dA though), though not with pure elemental powers or the same kind of regeneration factor. Very, very cool.

Harriet obtained the moniker "Hair" just because...I needed a nickname of some sort for her, and Hair was one of the only things I could come up with, haha.
Thank you! I was trying to do something "different" with Midge's powers, I'm glad you approve (:
