Full Name:
Kagna Mesic
Nick Name(s):
Snag
Gender:
Female
Pronouns: She/Her
Age:
20
Species:
Stoat
Appearance:
Kagna is very thin, even for a stoat. Where dull fur is not covered by similarly plain, well-worn clothing, it appears almost inseparable from her spindly frame. It's for this and face and muzzle, both similarly sharp and angular, that she's earned the nickname of "Snag".
On a good day, she may wear any of her many trophies or trinkets traded or taken over the years; she has a penchant for gold bracelets. Typically though, the stoat is in a situation where attracting attention to herself isn't a particularly good idea, and so she usually keeps these hidden away in any of the several pouches along her belt.
Personality:
It wouldn't be wise to call her a coward, but deep down she might admit it. Years in the horde and on her own have made her cautious and taught her no respect for the art of combat. Though never one to run and hide while the rest of the horde fights, the stoat understands that in most cases, and against most enemies, she'd probably just end up getting killed. As such she tries to find ways to limit herself to a more supporting role, and so prolong her lifespan. So far so good.
When the threat is over and the fighting done, the stoat, so keen on keeping to greater numbers for survival, immediately abandons that very same security for a first chance at scrounging through the dead and dying and unidentifiable gory bits for anything of value. This behavior doesn't really help make her any new friends, especially if some of those dead or dying were particularly popular hordebeasts.
At the end of the day, however, Kagna is quiet enough that she manages to stay out of major trouble, and her undying loyalty to the horde helps keep it that way.
Allies:
The horde, its leadership, dead things.
Enemies:
Enemies of the horde.
Strengths:
Kagna is very talented when it comes to stealth, even keeping her heart rate and breathing cycle to quiet minimums. This usually makes her a pretty good spy. She's also very good at finding shiny things, and the spying helps her keep that little hobby. Unfortunately, this is where her strengths end.
Weakness:
Everything else. When she isn't scavenging some other beast's kill, she's usually ratting somebeast out. Only the fragile order of the horde and some occasional usefulness towards it keeps her alive, as the stoat has no fighting talent or ability to guarantee it herself.
Goal: One day she'd like to retire, preferably living the high life in a nice, big, fancy, red stone building, find a good mate and have a half-dozen kits.
Background: Supposedly, Kagna comes from a long line of corsairs. That's what her family always like to say. Didn't really care much for them or the sea though.
All her life has basically been going from one horde to the next, expanding her little collection of loot and managing not to get herself killed. This Cremsin fella seems to know what he's doing.
Quirks:
Doesn't eat. Rarely sleeps. Favorite pastimes involve cleaning the blood off of her latest treasures and looking at clouds. Snores very loudly.
Weapons: Some old searat cutlass. It's got a bunch of nicks and notches down the blade, but it's still pretty sharp and the previous owner didn't really need it anymore.
