[Mafia] Witch Trip 2: The Witch is Back (SIGNUPS CLOSED)

[Florien]

Name: Talantravi "Ahlksorkhin"

Age: Debatable, but one of 27, 70something, 10, or 3, depending on how age is defined and whether the stories told about her are true or not. An adult by any of those metrics though.

Height and Weight: She's 6'4'' and 200 pounds out of armor. 230ish in armor, and she rarely takes her armor off.

Backstory: Three years ago, there was a hunter. He entered a forest to hunt the greatest of the wolves, the great she-wolf, the one who travelled alone, the one who had terrorized the region for years. No one knows what happened in there, but neither the hunter nor the wolf emerged again. What emerged was Talantravi Ahlksorkhin, and she set about ravaging the world, claiming all land she set foot upon as rightfully land of her forest, a being of both wolf and human, both hunters. Or so some claim. Others claim she was a smith's apprentice who convinced a travelling noble that a rake with a really long handle is the optimal pole-arm that no one else could make and took the enormous amount of money from the sale to reinvent herself. Still others claim she is the wolf alone from her story, or perhaps she is the hunter instead, and always was. Much about her is shrouded in mystery, and she likes it that way. She'll correct seemingly trivial details about any story, but never truly contradict any of the ones she hears about her.

Regardless, she still intends to "extend the forest", even into lands with no trees, and if she has to destroy everyone in her way to do that, witch-who-refuses-to-stay-dead or no, so it will be.

Abilities: Talantravi seems to have some degree of control over the animals of the forest, even when by all logic she shouldn't. She can wield a bow or an axe with great expertise, and she is durable to a slightly disturbing extent. Her very presence carries with it an atmosphere of oppression and fear.

Strengths: She's extremely durable, barely even reacting to injury, it's almost impossible to stop her once she's got even a little momentum. She once impaled herself all the way through a spear to get close enough to bite through someone's throat, or so it is said. She's certainly not denying it.

She's passively intimidating to be near for any length of time for all forms of life and unlife, including animals, plants, the undead, and even single-celled life (also viruses but she knows nothing about viruses). Anything that might attack her may try to avoid her instead, or may try to do as she commands rather than face her, if she gets close enough.

She's also a really good archer. Not superhumanly good, but able to hit targets at a fair distance (even while on horseback)

Weaknesses: Her intimidating aura is passive and she can't turn it off. She's unlikely to get help, even if she needs it, because anything that otherwise would be inclined to help her will run, if it can.

She's incautious, believing that her ability to endure nearly anything makes her even more intimidating, and will often choose to go through a harsh situation rather than avoid it, if it's more than slightly out of her way. While it is true that someone running at you at the same speed whether they have a bear trap on their leg and a caltrop through their other foot or neither of those is intimidating and impressive, most would agree it would probably be better to not step on those things in the first place.
