Honovi

Picture done by the lovely Svitlana~

Sheesh. This is what those wussy humes were so worried about? Ah well, I get to get paid for eating a big, easy meal, who'm I to complain?

That's Honovi in a nutshell... proud, tough, utterly derisive of regular humans, and one of the better huntresses-for-hire around. Born to one of the numerous demihuman tribes that local humans refer to as "half-feral", both because of their more wild appearance compared to "civilized" kemonomimi and because of their hunting lifestyles, Honovi is a huntress through and through. And what she hunts tends to be other demihumans, or the more fully monstrous species. Despite this, she manages to remain skinny, thanks to a rather rigorous training regimen that multiplies tenfold after any "extravagant" meal.

Heh. Figures you guys come calling me now. Fine, fine, what ugly sackacrap have you guys wasted a dozen mooks on this time?

Personality-wise, she's pretty laid-back. She expects prejudice from humans and ignores it when it inevitably comes. No sense making waves and rousing a species that outnumbers her tribe roughly a thousand-to-one into battle. Dying stuffed to the point of bliss with about a dozen humans each is still death, after all. As a result, insults tend to be water on a duck's back with her. With demihumans? Depends. The land her tribe lives on used to be mostly theirs, but with other tribes and humans moving in, prey's pretty much nonexistant. Hunting's a way of life for her, nothing really personal. And if she's not in the mood to hunt, why not hang out?

Huh, whaddaya know. A hume who can hold his own against monsters? Well, c'mere out back and I'll show you a few other tricks.

Combat-wise, Honovi's kind of a terror. She wields a mid-length kodachi sword and specializes in iai strikes- attacks that use friction from the blade against the sheath to unleash a blindingly-fast slash. However, she tends to keep the blade itself somewhat dulled along much of its edge, keeping a small area near the tip and parts along the back of the curve sharp for detail work. This allows her to subdue enemies without killing them outright, as she prefers to take meals whole and alive. She's also a lifelong specialist in poisons, especially those that paralyze or otherwise incapacitate foes without killing, and will dip her vestigal claws or her blade tip in them to make a more feisty enemy a feasible hunt. (Of course, she keeps the antidote on her at all times if she's using something like that; no sense digesting a meal only to find herself high on alraune pollen!)

*poke, gurgle* And that's that hunt finished. Now to go crap you out and work off all that fat you left stickin' to my ribs...
