Canon, AU, or OC?: Canonically... it is an OC?
Universe of Origin: Monster Hunter

Personality: Claudia is laid back, forth-coming, and friendly. Being laid back is not only what comes natural, but also amplified by the sheer boredom she feels as a UMMA agent. Her forth-coming nature comes somewhat hand-in-hand with her general friendliness. She likes people and company because she has spent an extensive amount of time hunting alone, valuing company in their absence, or in small groups, which boosts her quite well with the camaraderie. Her forth-coming, and general bluntness, is the result of her universe not tending to sugar coating things. With large monsters wanting to kill you at any moment, it makes life appear short and the last thing you want to do is regret telling the girl back home you love her or that your comrade in this fight sucked.

Abilities/Weapons: Outside of the magic of a great feast before a hunt, there is no magic to speak of in Claudia's world. Instead, combat prowess and survival really come down to finesse, ingenuity, and knowledge.

Claudia wields a massive Switch Axe, called Black Harvest, made out of the finest materials one could hunt in her universe. A Switch Axe is a device which can transform into either a heavy handed axe or a heavy broadsword in mid swing! The way this is accomplished is by using pre-loaded cartridges to eject the weapon into place with a press of a trigger. Claudia is especially potent with this weapon in her hands and the weight, like all weapons in her universe, doesn't seem to phase her at all. She is still quite nimble on her feet despite the weight.

In addition, she packs her own arsenal of devices and potions to help with a hunt. These items include but are not limited to: Flash bombs, Dung bombs, Health potions, Air Philler (temp water breathing), throwing knives, shock and pitfall traps, and so on. Please note that Claudia will not always have everything on hand but rather, she prepares what gear she believes will come in handy for the hunt ahead.

Finally, Claudia has hunted every monster imaginable in her own universe so when it comes for hunts in different universes, she can pick up on the details pretty quick. Although now she is hunting enemies of the UMMA, instead of monsters (much to her distaste). There is quite a difference between the two but she is slowly picking up on what to do. 

Backstory: Originally, Claudia was a member of the Hunter's Guild in her universe. Throughout her life, she managed to hunt and kill everything the guild had thrown at her. Each monster, or Wyvern, had possessed its own sets of challenges at first but as each monster gave up the bounties of their skin, scales, claws, and organs, Claudia got stronger and stronger through her gear. She finally finished with what she has now. The Great Alatreon Wyvern provided all the necessary materials for her unique take on the Alatreon armor and her weapon, Black Harvest. 

After that, well, things got a little strange and quiet. Challenging beasts were few in number and there was no need to hire Claudia's famed services so nobody did. Then one day a strange chasm cracked into the surface of their planet. It sunk deep into the ground but at the bottom, a great starlight expanse invited the inhabitants to go take a look. Fearing the worst, Claudia was hired to investigate and so she did.

On the other side of the chasm, a strange new world existed. Claudia hardly had a chance to examine it until she was greeted by all sorts of folk. There was no unity in that group and instead, they all looked like they didn't belong with one another. However, they explained that this was a vast expanse of many other worlds meeting in one place. A strange and foreign concept to Claudia and the rest of her world when she retreated and told the tales, but Claudia would live that concept out as she would be delegate to their planet after the UMMA invited their planet to join.

Faction: UMMA
