Ankara
"Best me in battle and you may claim the title of Honored."
Name: | Ankara ("Hard/Strong/Violent", Finnish) |
Gender: | Female |
Color: | Cobalt (Nickle variant) and Copper |
Species: | Baishu |
Size: | Medium-Small 5'5" tall at shoulder |
Personality: |
Ankara takes no gruff from any of the many Baishu under her control, putting down every hint of rebellion or resistance the moment she catches wind of it. She keeps her head at all times, not allowing herself to fall prey to battle lust or fury, even when confronted with an entire pack challenging her to a fight. Her way is the way of silent hunting and swift kills, of tricks and traps, and finally, only then, of claw and fang. Tactics and strategy for grand battles may be a bit beyond her at the moment, but she's learning - no Baishu becomes an Honored without being both strong and intelligent, after all. She's a bit overwhelmed at this 'new way' of doing things, a single Honored pair controlling multiple packs to work in concert with one another, but she respects Lord Kokuei and his second, Reiji, despite their habit of toying with their prey that sits very, very poorly with Ankara and her mate. In Ankara's mind, they should press the advantage that they have before the Myrsilk finally get the nerve to put up a concerted defense. And that damn blue mercenary should be overwhelmed and killed the next time he shows his snout, not allowed to take her people down one by one or two by two! Or wooed to their side, if possible - a being capable of fighting so furiously and so often is deserving of respect, after all! |
Abilities: |
Lightning Reflexes; Enhanced Speed; Venom: Fangs (affects nervous system); Venom: Claws (affects cardiovascular system); Binary Toxin (If both fang-venom and claw-venom are in a victim, the two types interact to produce an effect similar to necrosis but internally, turning the internal organs to mush at a fairly quick rate); Venom Immunity (immune to own venoms, and venoms that act similarly); Information Transfer (The ability to implant information in the head of another, as if the receiver had always known that information); Image-based telepathy; Mimicry (the ability to mimic the vocalizations of many different races. Truly skilled Baishu can make it sound like there's multiple people having a conversation); Devour Magic (the ability to absorb all magic aimed at the Baishu and use it later.
