Appearance: 1.79 meters tall, she has long flowing chestnut hair, piercing gray eyes and a rather wild expression. Her body is well trained without a single ounce of useless fat. Still despite the fact she’s covered almost entirely in muscles, she’s not misshapen at all by it. She has retained her elegant figure almost like a wild cat.
Attire: The attire Chambala wears is a rather unique and exotic type of clothing that not many would wear. It’s entirely made of furs, leather and bones. Her chest is tightly wrapped with a long piece of leather. Form the waist she wears a fur breechcloth, tightly secured by a woven string of leather, decorated and additionally kept in place with rather impressive buckles of bone. Additionally on her left shoulder is attached, with leather bands and strings, a big feline skull as a form of shoulderpad. Finally she wears a pair fur boots and gauntlets that double as weapons also. As a finishing touch, she has a pair of earrings made out of the fangs of a beast. Personally handcrafted and carved, they carry an exquisite details actually. Both fangs are carved to with the images of flower fields. For the colder times of the year, she also possesses a big fur coat that reaches under her knees.
Bio: Chambala was born in a family that lived near the edge of the Iron Sap Forest. Her father was a hunter who made a living by hunting the local animals and selling their pelts. Her mother was a simple woman who had a very vague understanding of enchanting, she had studied it as a youngster, but following her marrying and having children she stopped. Still she thought Chambala what she knew from a very early age. The final member of her family was her brother who was 4 years older than her.
Chambala's early life was not one of riches as her family barely made a living and met both ends, but somehow they persisted. Chambala and her brother helped her father with the hunting from as early as she could remember. She'd help him hunt, set the traps, field dress the smaller pray and so forth. One day when she was 8, while hunting they came across an injured young pup of a wolf. She couldn't bring herself to kill it and after some convincing, the family took it in to raise him after his injury healed. Eventually the wolf turned into trusty hunting companion.
When Chambala was 14 years old, a tragedy struck her family. One night, she and her trusty wolf companion were out in the woods, hidden up in a tree lookout that her father often use when he was out hunting for game at night. She had spread some simple traps about the place, tied to ropes that were pulled all the way to her hideout so if something small got caught in the traps like rabbit or squirrel, she could easily pull it all the way up before the bigger predators get the chance to eat it. On the next morning, after returning with a little score of 2 rabbits and a squirrel and some rats, she arrived at her home, only to find it burned to the ground. They never had any valuables, but this had all the markings of a bandit attack. Her family probably tried to fight back and they were killed. As such at the age of 14, she was left alone without a roof over her head or family. Chambala had no money, only a few small animals she caught the last night, her trusty companion and a wooden spear.
The following years passed in complete struggle for survival. She moved to live in a small cave her father used during his hunts after that event. She had no money and even if she went to some of the cities, she'd there just be a urchin. Instead she decided to live by herself at least she had her wolf. The winters were heavy things to survive, but she managed by clumsily modifying her new home and spending all possible time by hugging her wolf for warmth. She even covered the entrance of the cave with stones and wood to stop predators from entering. She covered the stone ground with lots of furs from the many rabbits and other animals she caught. As time passed and she grew older, she started hunting properly with a bow from time to time, but mostly her spear. Gradually she grew better at survival, learned to fight and live in the wilds. From time to time she'd visit towns to sell her furs, buy some provisions and other things she couldn't acquire in the forest by herself and return back to the forest to live a calm live. Sadly to her worst pain, her trusty companion finally had died after injuring his back. She cared for the wolf as best as she could, but the injury was too severe and it passed away. After giving him a proper burial by the cave, she took the furs she had gathered as usual and headed over to Falke to sell them. Who would have guessed the crazy annoying people who lived outside the forest would burn the bridge down, making her stuck outside her forest!
Personality and Aspirations: Wild, bright and careful. She likes to meet people, to hunt and to pass her time doing enjoyable things. She wants to live her life without people telling her how to do so.
Inventory: Any weapons, tools, mementos, supplies, or anything else you can think of.
- Claws(hands) – A set of fur and leather gauntlet like weapons, that have each 3 long metal blades at the end. Used for both protection and attacking. She rarely takes these off.
- Claws(feet) – A set of fur and leather boots, but also reinforced with bone. Like her gauntlets, they have each 3 long metal claws at the tip, allowing her kicks to be even deadlier weapons. Plus it helps with climbing! Rarely takes them off also.
- Obsidian knife – A rather simple item, this obsidian knife is her bread and butter tool for harvesting her pray, to cut her food and so forth.
- Fur traveling bag – Down at the bottom of it, there’s a rolled up and tied with two leather straps fur, that serves as her blanket if she needs one.
- Dried meat and fruits rations & Waterskin
- Hunting spear – Her second weapon that she uses quite often these days. It’s a spear made out of wood, is adorned with bones and has a steel blade. It’s just the right length to be used for both throwing and fighting in melee range.
Skills: Anything from specific spells and combat abilities, to known languages, literacy, and crafts. Please add any necessary information if the nature of the skill isn’t initially apparent.
Languages: Abbalic
Extreme agility: Chambala possesses almost absurd agility. She is able to dash, dodge, jump, twist her body and perform acrobatic feats with ease. In close fight she’s like a wild beast.
Spearplay: She’s adept at using her spear for both attack and defense. She’s not the strongest physically, but her extreme speed and precision more than makes up for it.
Beastfight: Chambala is not a strange to using her bladed gauntlets and boots to fight in close range. More than once she was forced to fight using only those, to defend herself against beasts or other people. It's not pretty sight, but she possesses odd efficiency with it. Almost as if she was born to be fighting with claws.
Trapper: Chambala has learned the basic of creating traps from her father and since then she has learned more on her own and by conversing with other hunters. She's proficient in making traps from materials found at the forest. From pitfalls to snares and so forth. Mostly ones to allow her to catch/kill the animal with little damage to it's pelt as possible.
Primitive Runes: Chambala had discovered a way to create magical runes of sorts. They lack the very capabilities and strength of their normal counterparts, but allow for interesting effects such as proximity detectors, local poison resistance, small ignition and so forth. In actuality it allows her to create minor trinkets such as wind chimes that react when something approaches, small fangs that could be pierced into wound from poison creature to slow the poison spreading and help fight it off, or a simple pieces of wood or bone that turn into small sparks that could be used to light fires.
