Background

White-haired and green-eyed, [b]Iris Bojka[/b] stands out amongst the other hunters. Seemingly an orphan, Iris remembers nothing of he life before arriving at base.

Iris seems aloof to her peers, detached and unemotional.

Aspects

High Concept: Mysterious Kaiju-fighting Prodigyr

Iris is one of the most successful kaiju hunters of her generation, her missions having wracked up more victories than any of her colleagues. Though she pretends towards emotionlessness, she is becoming more and more confident in her own abilities with each victory -- perhaps too confidant.

Trouble: Inflated Reputation

During what was supposed to be a routine training mission, Sarah's group ran into the kaiju Ironshell. As it was about to strike the final blow to one of her squadmates, Sarah delivered a well-timed shot that sent it reeling, allowing her squad to recover and defeat it. As rumors spread among the other hunters, she gained a reputation for similar acts, even though they were rarer than people wanted to believe. Needless to say, she isn't exactly comfortable with this, especially with all the attention it brings...

First Adventure: Ready for Anything

Sarah's pack was bulkier than those of her teammates during her first training mission, and it noticeably weighed her down. One of the meaner students on her team sniggered at how the poor girl was having trouble keeping up with everyone else, but when the group was trapped in a freak storm and had to take shelter, Sarah proved that there was in fact a reason she'd packed so much, pulling enough supplies out of the pack to keep the team safe and secure until the storm passed.

Crossing Paths: No Debt Unpaid

Sarah knew it would've been difficult, if not impossible, for her to make it back to base on her own after spraining her ankle, but was still uncomfortable with having to rely on someone else, when she wanted to be the one others relied on. Deciding that she had to repay him in order to make up for that, she spent days scouring the market for what she'd heard was one of his favorite foods

Crossing Paths Again: Stubborn Sense of Justice

On her way back to her room one night, Sarah witnessed a squabble between Elspeth and a group of condescending veteran hunters who were dismissive of her ability. Unlike them, Sarah had actually seen Elspeth in combat, and knew that although she could still improve, she was still better than what her detractors were saying. A switch within her snapped, and she stepped in to defend Elspeth, surprising her detractors enough that they gave up and walked off.

Skills

Great (+4) Notice
Good (+3) Shoot Stealth
Fair (+2) Fight Survival Athletics
Average (+1) Will Investigate Lore Physique

Sterling Storm

Sterling Storm looks like a simple spear, its color scheme dominated by silver. Thought its appearance implies it would be most suited to melee combat, it was in fact designed to be just as good when used at range. The replaceable tip can be launched like a grappling hook, but is also fitted with an explosive charge that can be detonated on command. In addition, Sarah can unfold a bipod, stock, and scope from its body if needed.

Aspect: Security Blanket

Sarah is unusually attached to Sterling Storm. Though having it around does provide her with a measure of calm, she nevertheless feels compelled to go to great lengths to ensure it's well taken care of, and tries to avoid damage to it whenever possible.

Stunt: Explosive Charges

When Sarah succeeds at an an attack action in a physical conflict, she can detonate the payload in Sterling Storm's tip to ___ (I'm actually trying to figure out what kind of bonus might be appropriate here, so I'm open to ideas). However, if she does so, she must spend a turn to fit it with a new tip before she can attack again.

Stunts

Ambush

If Sarah is currently hidden from her target, her next attack with either Fight or Shoot is made at +2, but she is no longer hiding afterwards.

Enemy Scan

Against kaiju, you have to take every advantage you can get, even if you have to discover it first. Sarah gains +2 on Notice actions to detect a kaiju's weakness

Combat Medic

Sarah's desire to help and protect has also lead her to become rather skilled with emergency medicine. She gains +2 on uses of Survival related to first aid.

Fluff

Character Songs

Aoi Tada - Brave Song

itsumo hitori de aruiteta furikaeru to minna wa tooku
sore demo atashi wa aruita sore ga tsuyosa datta
mou nani mo kowaku nai sou tsubuyaite miseru
itsuka hito wa hitori ni natte omoide no naka ni ikiteku dake
kodoku sae aishi waratterareru you ni atashi wa tatakaun da
namida nante misenai n da
I was always walking alone; when I looked back, everyone was far away
Nevertheless, I walked on; that was my strength
I'm not afraid of anything anymore, or so I whisper to show you
Someday, people will be alone and only live on within memories
So that I can even love and laugh at loneliness, I'll fight
I won't show my tears
