Message: <blockquote data-quote="StreamOfTheSky" data-source="post: 5632893" data-attributes="member: 35909">Basic idea for the backstory:[sblock]Kayura is Taka's sister.  They were separated as young children when raiders pillaged their community and captured Kayura (parents killed maybe?) along with older slaves.  Growing up under harsh conditions, her captors eventually being overrun by more evil and fearsome creatures than they, she survives on her strength of will and rises among the ranks.  Taking what she wants and oppressing those weaker being conditioned into her in her upbringing, she becomes a scourge of the desert, leading frequent raids and pillaging the land.  After several skirmishes with Taka (trying to protect towns from Kayura's savage attacks), Taka realizes she is her long lost sister.  In their final confrontation, Taka is able to grapple and subdue Kayura.  Not wishing to kill her own blood, Taka takes Kayura back to her homeland and attempts to reconnect with her sister and teach her a different path.Those events unfolded several years ago.  Today, Kayura is well on her way to being a steadfast force for the side of good, though it's been a slow process, going in babysteps.  She still savors the thrill of battle and the rush of slaying others a bit more than Taka would like, but at least now her blade is pointed in the direction of the evil gods and their followers.Kayura portrays a carefree, jovial, almost child-like innocence, punctuated by sudden flashes of intense violence when she goes to battle.  Almost as soon as the blood has ceased to pour, she returns to her lighthearted demeanor.  Whether this innocent seeming nature is her true nature, or merely a deception to cause potential foes to underestimate her and be caught offguard should they come to blows, is anyone's guess, including Taka's.[/sblock]If any of that doesn't work for either of you, we can tweak it.</blockquote>
