Suvdaa

Suvdaa was born into a tribe of raiders, and from as little as four years old, she was taught their ways. How to ride a horse, how to instill fear during attacks, the best methods to use when aiming for killing or aiming to make people flee. When it comes to actually assaulting some kind of complex or city, Suvdaa usually has the right idea in mind of what she needs to do and use to get the job done, and instill the most chaos and panic in her targets once the raid begins. While this is mainly limited to methods using bows and horseback, the same methods could be used in modern situations once Suvdaa understands everything.

Suvdaa has a high affinity to animals, understanding their habits and mannerisms, as well as what's needed from her to be considered an ally rather than a threat or prey. While she can't actually speak with animals, she understands them enough to recognize the different moods and needs of an animal. This normally relates to more common and mundane animals from her realm, the same could be said of animals to other realms, as she can quickly study and spot out what an animal is thinking. In addition to this, if Suvdaa has the opportunity, she can effectively mock a sign of distress from an animal she knows is nearby to enlist its help. This doesn't extend to more exotic and intelligent animals like dragons.

Suvdaa's weapon of choice is a bow and arrow, and has continued to be her weapon of choice for nearly 20 years now. Suvdaa's skill with a bow and arrow is thanks in part to her harsh training in the frozen wastelands, and the methods of attacking and hunting she's done. Her level of precision remains keen no matter what force around her could mess with her shot. Suvdaa's training included shooting while in trees, upside down, from tight spaces and narrow spaces, but the most grueling is shooting from atop moving objects, especially a galloping horse. All of those obstacles have only made Suvdaa's skill better, meaning every shot can count when it needs it.

Hunting involves tracking the remains or tracks of an animal. There's also knowing when to move, how to move, how to stay out of sight and how to read the wind so your scent doesn't reach the animal, or just covering up your scent from the start. Hunting itself is just a general knowledge of being an outdoorsman and knowing how to handle situations when things turn dire, such as needing clean water or knowing how to handle animal bites like snake's venom. There's also a crafting aspect, including temporary shelter, traps to aid in hunting, or something simple as setting up a campfire when everything is wet. Suvdaa knows how to handle the wilderness, and she could probably live in it.

Suvdaa is actually a 'moon child' of her tribe, which is a term for the one who is chosen by their goddess, Od Tegri, to be their vessel on nights of the full moon. On these nights, Suvdaa's only change physical is her silver eyes, which is the sign that the goddess has taken over her body. In this 'form', Od Tegri's arrows are arrows blessed by the power of the moon, and are great at dealing with more formidable foes that normal weapons cannot hope to damage.

As a backup plan for when combat gets too close for a bow and arrow, Suvdaa uses her other weapon: Herself. Trained for the 'just incase' a hunt goes wrong, or the bow breaks, or you run out of arrows somehow, Suvdaa can use her hands and her feet in a more strength oriented brawling that fits her flexibility and technique. Rather than rely on a traditional style of combat from her world, Suvdaa goes for something to end a fight fast, meaning to take things down and keep them on the ground with submission holds or bone breakers.

Dulguun is a large grizzly bear that Suvdaa has successfully tamed and befriended over time. The huge bear has an appetite fitting its size, and serves as Suvdaa's friend, battle mount, traveling companion, and just an a close protector to have around. Dulguun himself is an aggressive grizzly bear that you'd think would be feral, but around Suvdaa, he's a calm beast capable of understanding her commands, and walks beside her like a dog on a leash.

Suvdaa will never understand and memorize what it's like to live in the city, or deal with the society that is within it. The simple act of bartering isn't so much a barter as it is more like a hostage negotiation to Suvdaa, more so actual signs and signals for something as simple as traffic is a foreign concept to her. Her skills are simply for the wild, and any time Suvdaa goes into the city, she's going to need someone to keep an eye on her. Constantly.

A major disadvantage for Suvdaa is her inability to actually express emotion the way she means to. What can be seen as something meant to be caring and concerning comes off as offensive and directly insulting, which derives from her people and how she was raised. While her actual feelings for a person can be there internally, externally she can show nothing but what appears to be passive-aggressive tendencies and misunderstood force to demonstrate her true thoughts.

Drinking is often done with celebration, as is partying and dancing, and when it happens, Suvdaa goes all in. She will drink in excessive amounts of alcohol, and actually become a more outgoing person that displays genuine joy and expresses her true thoughts. Even while intoxicated, Suvdaa still displays strong combat prowess, but has the more obvious disadvantages of poor judgement and just not really being her emotionally blind self. Suvdaa also can't actually go easy on people when she's playing around in this state, either.
