Name: Skout Firefist
Age: 35
Gender: Female
Race: Pyran
Persuasion: Cups
Element: Fire.
Zodiac sign: Cancer
Appearance: To accurately describe Skout one must comprehend how astonishingly large this woman is. Not only is Skout a good 7ft 3 but she also has a very prominent belly, wide hips and thick thighs which taper off into her stocky feet. A pair of breasts sit atop the sphere of fat encircling her abdomen, well on their way into the DD cup range. She looks, at first glance, to have the same proportions as an obese human; truly the arms and calves are the revealing factors. Instead of being flat with sloping shoulders, the muscle here is well defined, smoothed by packs of fat here and there but still dangerously bulbous and clear indicators of her staggering physical strength. Indeed, Skout's sheer mass alone makes it hard to go through human doorways, but that is due to the thick layer of fat and the even thicker layer of muscle underneath it.
Skout's skin is a dark reddish-brown, the colour of blood, with paler palms and sunburnt patches on her cheeks, nose and elbows becoming even darker. A row of four horns, the outer two being around three to four inches high whilst the middle are firmly set at two inches tall, decorate her hairline. They are the same color of her skin and are slightly ridged. Her hair is black, cut into a short wavy bob which seems to give her face a softer, child-like appearance. Skout has off-yellow eyes, and thick dark eyebrows. Her lips are pouty and full, and from each corner of her mouth two large canines jut out from the bottom row.
Since tailors shudder at the thought of trying to create an outfit for such a massive lady, Skout's wardrobe is proudly hand-crafted. She is surprisingly good at using clothes to create different impressions; a simple waistcoat with a rolled-up dark cotton shirt and some linen trousers turns her into a farmer or a manual labourer, whereas a big patterned dress and a wooly cardigan transform her into a doting mother. Her real pride and joy is her armour. It consists of thick metal plates held together by large metal clasps, like shackles. These are supported by leather straps to further attach the armour. Chainmail is usually worn underneath and these plates are adorned with furs and bones, reportedly from her kills. She has a large metal helmet with a visor and a thick, scaly 'plume' which is more like a rough tentacle or a tail jutting out at the back. Skout claims this is the tip of a real dragon's tail.
Weapons/other combat abilities:
Firefist; her beloved namesake. Skout has an interesting range of raw magic, wherein she does not fling fire around the place like your run of the mill wizard but actually encases her weapons in it, mainly her fists. Not only will her bone-shattering punches knock you back several feet but now there's a very real risk of third degree burns upon impact.
When it comes to weapons Skout relies on her trusty battle axe called Susan. She keeps this in prime condition, and though she never keeps it on hand 24/7, you can bet she's in running distance of where she hid it. Just in case. Skout also favours her natural weapons - lefty and righty. She acknowledges and makes good use of her feet, elbows, shoulders, forehead and knees for optimum hand to hand combat.
Whilst it's not really a combat ability or a weapon, Skout always keeps a (well covered and protected) Pyran Artefact called a Phoenix Stone. An orange crystalline sphere with various tiny holes and the feather of a phoenix nestled inside, this stone uses fire magic to ignite the feather. The pressure of the air escaping the rock and the magical power amplified by the feather creates a violent explosion which the crystal is capable of resisting entirely. It takes a few days to regenerate after each use, during this regeneration time it is incredibly hot to the touch. Skout doesn't use it often as she feels it's cheating to use such a violent device.
Bio: Skout's story is one of self searching. Born and raised in Utany, she felt rather distant to the patriotism of her family and friends. Whilst her parents were trying to comprehend and work with their only daughter, she was ridiculed by others for her intellect (which was in itself more to do with cunning and creativity than actual academic prowess - it should be noted that Skout received no education and is largely illiterate) and called weak or soft when she displayed her natural disposition to nurture the vulnerable. When she was old enough and independent enough to head out on her own (in her case at the mere age of 13) she moved to Lastranay, keeping in touch with her family.
What she found was a society that she could fit in. From the Aquans Skout learnt a lot about her persuasion, able to openly discuss her feelings and dissect the treatment of her Pyran peers on a psychological level. She learnt about empathy and love and sex, things that were generally avoided in typical Pyran conversation. On top of this she was taught a range of crafts, from tailoring to cooking, and was given the open-minded attitude she so desperately needed.
For a while, life in Lastranay seemed like paradise. As she matured however it became painfully obvious that she simply couldn't get any closer to the Aquans. Their amphibious lifestyle deprived her of being able to participate in some festivities or visit her friends' homes, and her fire magic was such a dangerous thing to use around them. On top of that, she was still typically Pyran - stubborn, aggressive and obsessed with honour and combat. Skout knew she couldn't belong there and decided to go back to her roots without actually having to suffer the teasing of other Pyrans.
Skout became a mercenary, an adventurer and a sellsword, much to the delight of her parents who gifted her with the armour and weapon she keeps to this day. She would only accept tasks that were morally just, protecting villages from raiders or battling fierce monsters. She wouldn't do it for free though. Whilst she hardly became famous, she certainly bought the respect from several small hamlets and towns which were prejudiced against her. She traveled south, quickly passing through Patrance and discovering new things about religion in Era.
Skout's journey ended in Atvance several years ago. She still needs this sense of belonging but the varied culture in the town was enough to placate her needs for the time being. Her view on other races can be a bit patronising as she feels the irresistible need to care for and look after these smaller, frailer beings. She made a small farm to financially support her and she works regularly in the blacksmith shop. The past few months have made her restless, eager to keep looking for her true kind, her 'family' to look after and keep safe.
Other: Skout's weaknesses lie in her fear of drowning, her pathetic diplomatic skills, her cumbersome size and her stubborn will. She is susceptible to mind-controlling magic, though she may struggle from time to time it will inevitably fail.
I am also hoping that Skout could have a mentor, someone who may reach her how to read and write. If anyone feels up to the task feel free to ask me, if not I'll ask one of you.
