__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description:
Krahsna looks weak- or at least, weak for an orc. She stands at a measly 6'7", and has a build more suitable for a swimmer than for any kind of warrior. Her skin is a grey-green color, and she's forgone the ritual scarification common in orcs in favor of ornate body paint. Her tusks are very small- you can only just see them poking out from behind her lower lip. Her dark, bushy hair is beginning to grey. Krahsna wears rather simplistic leather armor, along with a few medallions and talismans she's made to help in her rituals.

Please don't mistake her stress lines for scars. I know it's easy to do, but it really upsets her.

Personality:
While once boisterous and excitable, witnessing her younger brother's murder has left Krahsna an empty shell of the person she was in her youth. Time is normally enough to heal all wounds, but when the wound literally refuses to leave your side and ends up becoming part of your job...

Yeah. Having to see his ghost every day hasn't done Krahsna's mental state much good. She's a bit of a hot mess, and is often one mean comment away from having a mental breakdown.

Krahsna has a weird habit of looking over her shoulder every few minutes. Even she doesn't know why she does it.

Relationships:
Krahsna's deceased younger brother Ugbert serves as her spirit guide. She's rather uncomfortable with this- Krahsna would have preferred it if he had simply moved on.

Magic/Abilities:
Krahsna is a shaman! That means most of her magic is of the "primal ritual" variety. There's a wide variety of things she can achieve with her magic- everything from simple healing to enchanting weapons. She was even able to change the weather once! However, the more absurdly powerful rituals require reagents and sacrifices and stuff- they usually aren't worth the time and effort to preform.

Krahsna's specialty is warpaint enchanting. By imbuing a paint with primal magic and applying it in specific patterns across the body, she can enhance the physical traits of herself or others. This is, of course, temporary- the paint washes off easily, and it will usually rub off of it's own accord after a day or so.

Krahsna can see ghosts- which are surprisingly more common than you'd think.

History:
Krahsna had a happy life with her father and brother until she was sixteen. The murder is something Krahsna will not talk about, so don't ask. The effect it had on her is very visible.

With that out of the way, we can talk about what happened immediately after the murder- Ugbert kinda stuck around. When Krahsna realized that she was the only one who could see him, she came to the conclusion (or rather, Ugbert pressured her into believing) that she had to walk the path of a shaman.

It's been twenty-one years since that day, and Krahsna has just about made it. Her mind is fraying at the edges a bit, but she's not mad quite yet...
