Tu Nama is an imposing man with a spider tattooed on his whole face and scorpions tattooed on each forearm.  He is on his vision quest to attain kinship with the spider god Tiri.  He carries a long spear and fights like a man-demon, weaving in and out of battle -- impossible to touch.  Striking and retreating in a blur.  When his foe is weakened, he snares him with a net and bleeds him as an offering to Tiri.  His Grandmother, reincarnated as a raven, travels with him along with her dog-servant.
