Bunka

Bunka is a Damaskan female soldier, and a former member of the player party. She previously served as Chief Tactical Officer aboard the SS Eastwood. He has since left with H0W-D33 in pursuit of a new life. 
== Background ==
Bunka was born on the Damaskan homeworld of Beyzoze. Like many Damaskans, she didn't remain with her family long and held little attachment to them. At the age of 13, she left her home village in search of something new. 
She travelled through space, honing her combat abilities and fighting style, and learned how to protect herself. By the age of 17, she considered herself as a 'natural' killer. She was soon noticed by a powerful Zhen'kethi by the name of Desta. He paid a lot of money for her services, and she quickly became rather loyal to him. 
Her final mission for Desta caused a rift between the two, and caused Bunka to escape from him and live far away for over three years. One day however, Desta's men found her and dragged her back to him. She was tortured non-stop by Desta both physically and mentally. Desta went as far as to inject Bunka with a rare bacteria, which caused the condition 'Botulism'. The bacteria warped Bunka both physically and mentally. Bunka was now left as a shell of her former self, being bitter and desperate, looking only to save herself from this condition. 
== Appearance ==
Bunka was a olive skinned Damaskan female, standing at 5"11 tall with a medium size. He had small eyes like ost of her species, and several ridges on her face. 
She frequently wore armour that she rarely took off, with orange coloured shoulder pads, and orange boots. She wore a set of brown trousers. She carried her weapons with her on her back most of the time. 
== Personality ==
Bunka is a difficult individual to read. They are cold and rather distant from most people, which is a common Damaskan trait. Many finding it hard to work with her at times. She rarely displayed emotion, and when she did they were often negative. 
She was known to hold grudges with others, notably with H0W-D33, and relentlessly picked on H0W-D33 until finally stopped by Arthur Steele. She didn't seem to care very much about the party and only ever seems to care about curing her condition.
She had no qualms about starting fights with others, or stealing from others too. She has often got into trouble after being caught, notably by Union authorities. 
Towards the end of the mission, Bunka formed a friendship with H0W-D33 and seemed to care about him as she was willing to go with H0W-D33 to his next destination. Bunka also showed a level of care to the rest of the party, with her giving Calli her jeweled trident and showing begrudging respect to other members. 
== Relationships ==
=== H0W-D33 ===
Bunka has had a difficult relationship with H0W-D33. The moment they began working together, Bunka grew a dislike enough to begin a series of pranks that escalated in full-blown attempts to kill each other. Bunka pursued H0W-D33 relentlessly, and almost caused H0W-D33 to leave the Eastwood. After some mediation, Bunka has eased off H0W-D33 and the two have worked well together since. 
Eventually, Bunka and H0W-D33 developed a closer relationship. Bunka was one of the only ones to get through to H0W-D33 during the events of "Two Minds", and eventually, the two decided to leave the Eastwood together at the conclusion of the mission. 
=== Calliamarianna ===
Bunka has had a neutral relationship with Bunka. Initially caring very little for Calli as she did with other members of the party, as Bunka got to know her a bit more, they formed a more positive relationship. Bunka liked Calli by the end of the mission, at least enough to give her the jeweled trident she had acquired. 
=== Desta ===
Bunka initially had a good relationship with Desta, working for him loyally and completing missions effectively. Eventually, after an undisclosed mission for Desta, Bunka fell out with the Zhen'kethi and ran away from him. After being found, Desta had Bunka tortured which further strained their relationship. 
=== Arthur Steele ===
Bunka initially disliked Steele along with the rest of the party. She had little respect for Steele as a leader, and simply followed him because she had no choice. Their relationship was further strained when Steele forced Bunka to make their peace with H0W-D33. Eventually, Bunka developed a respect for Steele as a leader, although their relationship never went beyond this.
