==Overview==
Fern is one of the last surviving Hydrians and lost both her mothers when she was 7 in a raid on her family that only left Fern alive because she wasn't fully grown and wasn't worth killing to be used as food. As a result, Fern grew up on her own and didn't mentally mature much, but did learn how to survive. As she had no toys following the raid, she would play with anything she came across as she wandered across Hydria. Her 'playthings' were not the typical toys of a Hydrian child, but often the smaller, unintelligent species of Hydria which she would treat as a toy until she was hungry, often causing the creature in question great distress. She enjoyed abusing these smaller species a lot and would sometimes keep a single subject for a long time before eating it, injuring it just to see how far she could go without killing her toys.
Fern was chosen by TwinBragia to rule her slave mining colony on Hydria when it was claimed by TwinBragia's forces, mostly down to pure luck. Fern was located by TwinBragia's forces after being caught playfully torturing one of TwinBragia's soldiers who were on Hydria to scout out a possible mine site they believed to be uninhabited. TwinBragia personally spared Fern's life after being impressed by her seemingly inexplicable ability to speak the same language as the Dragoians as well as her playful cruelty, although her childlike qualities were something TwinBragia found particularly irksome. Fern was initially reluctant to TwinBragia's offer of being a slave master, not really understanding the offer until TwinBragia explained it in a particularly condescending way that was simple enough for Fern to understand.
Fern enjoys annoying TwinBragia, often flaunting her own superior height much to TwinBragia's annoyance, and will often grope TwinBragia as if TwinBragia was one of her playthings, but will refrain from actually injuring TwinBragia as she fears any significant reaction may result in TwinBragia killing her. This behaviour greatly annoys TwinBragia and has occasionally prompted TwinBragia to physically hit Fern, but is somewhat tolerated as long as Fern gets results from her slaves, which she does.
She has a truly despised reputation among her slaves and is often nicknamed "Twin Headed Devil", known for her random acts of cruelty and pushing for truly unreasonable levels of output. When she is particularly displeased with one her slaves, she will publicly execute this slave in an unexpectedly gruesome way, often deliberately taking her time to make her victim scream in agony. One of her public executions involves having a disobedient slave bound by metal cables and placed in both her maws, biting enough to secure the victim but not to bite through them, before violently jerking her heads apart tearing her poor victim in half, eating the halves with an often excessive amount of chewing.
==Attitude To TwinBragia==
Fern originally was scared of TwinBragia due to her previous isolation from similar sized creatures and her first encounter with TwinBragia having the GunLance pointed at her, and served solely out of fear. She would eventually realise that TwinBragia actually made her life better, because not only would TwinBragia systematically wiped out any possible threats to Fern, she also provided large amounts of 'tiny' species for Fern to play with, harm, eat, etc.
Due to the freedom TwinBragia gives Fern in running the slave mining colony, Fern often annoys TwinBragia in an overly jovial way and only stop after pushing her luck too far and getting a physical reaction from TwinBragia. Her common tactics to annoy TwinBragia involve bringing up that TwinBragia is shorter than her as it's a particularly easy way of annoying TwinBragia and inappropriately touching TwinBragia. Fern will also call TwinBragia 'Twinnie' much to TwinBragia's disgust. Fern only gets away with teasing TwinBragia because she makes sure her slaves get results which are enough to temper TwinBragia's irritation towards Fern.
==Clothing choice==
Fern sees not point in wearing proper armour after meeting TwinBragia since she is pretty much the only Hydrian left, in her own eyes. As a result she had all of her upper body armour bar the breast plating removed leaving her with a pair of armoured trousers and a metal bra. Her reasons for still wearing the full trousers is to 'prevent splash back' from many of the lava lakes on Hydria.
==Combat Style==
Fern often uses her immense size to simply crush (or grab and devour) her foes if they are smaller than her. She will however use a Hydrian Shotgun when dealing with foes that are around her size, this shotgun is also used as intimidation when dealing with small foes as being hit by such a weapon is the same result as being hit by multiple cannon shells.
