Biography

The girl who would be known as Victory's Roar in the Void was a bold, adventurous sort who had the misfortune to be born to the class of Autocthonia that was not really considered a class at all. She frequently set off by herself to explore the tunnels surrounding her clan's camp, that being one of the few perks of her existence, and her clan were pleased as they didn't have to feed her when she was gone. While still a teenager, it was this habit of exploring that saved her life, as a much larger, more vicious band of Lumpen set upon her home group while she was gone and slaughtered them all for their meager resources. Filled with rage, the girl set about the admirable, if all-advised, attempt at engaging in a one-woman guerilla war. Knowing the tunnels helped at first, letting her pick off scouts, but eventually the girl's luck ran out... at least from a certain point of view. As fate would have it, she'd drawn the interest of a being whom she couldn't have possibly imagined.

Cornered, wounded and outnumbered twenty to one (her being the one), the girl knew this was it. So did the Silver Lady, Luna herself, only 'it' meant an entirely different thing. The girl felt her body infused with Essence, and watched herself flow and reform into a hybrid of woman and a creature she'd only dimly heard of - a white tiger. The Lumpen that set about her were no match for her power. The larger Lumpen warband was no match for her. When the last of her enemies fell, she let out a roar of triumph that echoed down the tunnels for miles. Suddenly exhausted as the Essence-fueled rage left her, the girl was startled by the appearance of the most attractive woman she had ever seen. Too much so to be human, and in this, she was correct. She wielded an ornate, archaic weapon the girl had never seen and looked... well, divine in her silver armor. The huntress smiled down at her. "Well done, my beautiful new daughter. For your howl of triumph, I name you know Victory's Roar in the Void." She placed a gentle kiss on the newly-christened Roar's lips and vanished. Roar remembers it as if it happened just moments ago.

Victory's Roar in the Void made her way to the nearest City-State, the Pillar of Untrammeled Brilliance, head swimming with the lives her Exaltation had led. One of them, in particular, was the leader of a warband, and they all operated some sort of amazing craft that walked on two legs or flied like a... like something that flew. More importantly, they rained down death on their foes. It was almost as amazing as meeting Luna herself. As a newly-minted Lunar Exalt, her first order of business after getting her tattoos was to find somebody in charge and see to it she got to fly one of those things herself. As it happened, her gift for unorthodox tactics, self-determination and talent for the Voidfighters quickly earned her a spot on Raiton Wing. There's been some unexpected things in the life of a Voidfighter pilot, but everything's just so cool and so much fun compared to her old life she's quite enthusiastic about pretty much everything she's encountered thus far. Really, the Lunar sees the whole thing as some unbelievably good reward.

Personality

Since making herself known to the Pillar of Untrammeled Brilliance and joining Raiton Flight, Roar looks on the brighter side of life in ways that those from more genteel origins don't, or possibly can't. The food's good, the sex is great, and they have the best job in the Void - to fight all the time. What's there to ever be upset about? The Flight has also been adopted as her new family, whether they want it or not. The Alchemicals in fascinate Roar ("So, can you guys... you know? Really? You CAN? So... do you wanna?"), as she'd never even heard about such a thing until joining Autocthonian society. The contact high from the moonsilver reasonance effect off Quicksilver Huntress is an added bonus. A very tactile Lunar, the group can find their hair mussed with, hugged or punched in the arm as the spirit moves Victory's Roar. She's extraordinarily fond of Pup, and some have a sneaking suspicion Roar doesn't actually know the Terrestial's real name. As for the command staff, Roar reveres General Narikon ("Yes sir!"), is a terrible influence on Rita ("Bored? Me, too. Let's find some fun!"), is more bemused by Dasha than is good for her ("All Terrestials are so cute!") and will engage Lily for hours in conversation if the chance comes up ("Well, it's not like I'VE heard it before.") Roar is a terror in battle and a great source of morale, constantly trying to organize parties for the flight, and if she wasn't so open, earnest and loyal it would probably be a touch irritating instead of kind of exhausting.
