Raika Fireheart

Raika Fireheart is tall a young Orc Shaman, of the Bloodwolf Clan. The Bloodwolf Clan is a warrior clan that is known for training fierce riding and battle worgs, as well as for loving battle. They reside in what is now called Durotar, though some have strayed to live in the Barrens as well. Raika is 33 years of age, born on Draenor, though she only remembers very little of her original homeland. She got her second name after completing her basic shaman training, referring to her fiery temper, and when meeting new people, she presents herself as Raika Fireheart.
She travels the world, and has no place that she would call her home, exept for the huts behind the Great Gate in Mulgore. The place that the Eyes call their home. She will follow the Eyes whereever they go, as she seesthe Eyes as her place in the world.
==Physical Traits==
Raika stands as a tall young orc, heavily scarred from many battles, despite her young age. Her skin is an olive green colour, though a bit darker than the average. She has several in her face and on her arms, and three big scars from heavy injuries. One running from between her breasts and down her stomach, stopping below her navel. Another runs from her left shoulder, right down her back, ending at her right hip. The third runs down her right thigh and ends just below her knee. Her skin has a dark olive colour, and her eyes shine a dark mix between red and brown. Her hair is raven black, and tied in a tall ponytail.
It is clear that she is keeping herself in shape, and she can often be found training with various weapons, even bows or swords, to hone her fighting skills. When in battle she prefers fighting with dual weapons, enhancing them with the power of the elements. Despite this, she still trains with other wepons to make sure she can get out of a tight spot no matter what weapon she may have at hand.
She doesn't do anything to hide her female curves and looks, nor does she do much to make people see them.
==Equipment==
When travelling, Raika prefers wearing a simple set of mail armor, mostly brown or green. She uses the same set when she fights, and doesn't use a lot of different armor. She tends to forget to tend to her armor, and it often seems rugged, used and uncared for. At formal occasions she wears a simple robe, preferably in a light brown colour, or an official armor set for shamans.
She has a big backpack which she carries around, then hides in the Camp where the Eyes are staying. If not travelling, it is usually hidden around the huts in Mulgore. She also carries four smaller bags in her belt for various herbs, cloth scraps for bandages, and a single small black pouch away from the others. The small pouch contains a corrupted Earth Elemental shard, that she found within the Dire Maul, and has held onto ever since. It seems to emit dark energies, and she keeps it hidden from sight. She can be found just staring at it while turning it in her hands, when noone else is looking.
Her totems hang from her belt in chains, so she'll quickly be able to get hold of them when she needs them.
==Accessories==
Raika doesn't like jewelry in particular, and prefers simple accessories like leather armbands or a single necklace. She has both her ears pierced, two rings in each, and a rune-inscribed leather armband around her upper right arm, inscribed with fire runes. Around her neck she has a necklace with a single wolf tooth from her first riding wolf. She took its tooth when it died, and now carries it around in remembrance and to honor it. Her arms has tattoos shaped like fire, starting at her wrists and ending just below her elbows, glowing with a pale red colour in the dark. She got them when she was 21, after she had passed her Om'riggor; they first began glowing after she had communed with the Element of Fire for the first time. ﻿
