Editing APCH: Cleo Hogg (section)

==Bio:==

Description: A short, compact-looking young ork woman with stringy black hair that defies any attempts to keep it combed, usually wearing a ratty-looking leather jacket and an assortment of cheap, Egyptian-themed jewellery. Her voice is rough but steady, and she rarely speaks unless she has something important to say.

Background: Born to a large urban clan of orks, Hatchet (a bastardised form of an educated pun on her given name; Cleo = Cleopatra = Hatshepsut = Hatchet) early discovered a strong but unfocused kinship with the spirit world. Refusing to spend her life in the squalor her kin lived in, she began to seek out every chance to learn how to wield her gifts. As a result of being cobbled together from bits and pieces, her style of magic is somewhat odd and eclectic, though it has a definite theme of ancient Egyptian mysticism. Hatchet regards magic as tapping into the natural flows of energy through the world, of which even the gods are only aspects or emanations. Her own totem spirit, Snake, has definite connotations of demonhood and black magic according to Hatchet's belief system - something that bothers her not at all, as long as it helps keep her free and safe.
