Shana Hauken

Shana was created as a Pathfinder Player Character by Michael Lee Viviano in the Sanguine Dragons Campaign, ran by Tim Gillihan. She is a member of the Gunslinger class found in Ultimate Combat.
Shana Hauken is six feet two inches tall and has shoulder length dusty brown hair and hazel eyes. At her height, she stands above both man and woman and quickly catches people's attention, but with her relatively low charisma doesn't hold it very well. She is as attractive as any other physically adept woman, though her features are marked with subtle scars. She weighs 175 pounds, with little flab. Her moves are those of a seasoned veteran, furtive glances to all sides and few wasted movements. She wastes few words as well, believing in open eyes and a shut mouth.
Shana was born to the Haukens of Ardallia, a city in the north of the Kingdom of Kasteban. The Haukens are a vassal family of both the Sleyden and Mordh'Dhagai families of Demon Dust-mongering engineers. The Haukens were trusted assistants of both families, and the family was one of several that provided potential mates that were "in the business" with the others.
Shana was born on Chillwind the 21st of 1717, one of two twins. The other twin is Lady Louise Hauken, born identical to Shana. As babies, the two were inseperably close, learning together, playing together.
For the first ten year of their lives, Shana and her sister were brought up as excruciatingly proper noble ladies. Though proper they may have been, they were still Haukens, and they learned about guns. First they learned the dangers of firepower. Then they learned the mechanics. And then they learned the business.
And then they learned to shoot.
Shana was always a better shot. At eight years old she was a better marksman than her father. Often the Hauken dinner table was laden with game young Shana shot.
But the life of a young Hauken girl is not supposed to be one one of adventure. At ten years of age, both sisters were engaged, Louise to the Sleyden family, Shana to the Mordh'Dhagai. Meeting their fiancees in their teens, Louise immediately fell in desperate love with the handsome Hunter Sleyden. Shana was less impressed with Erich Mordh'Dhagai the Fifth. But such was family business, so she would comply.
But then then came the night when the Sleyden family died in Garrus, and the Mordh'Dhagai emerged triumphant and alone in control of the Trynsern Demon Dust monopoly. Not only in Garrus, but throughout the Empire were the Sleydens hunted and killed, only west of the Karmeron Mountains did groups survive. Hunter Sleyden did not. After the death of her fiancee, in bereaved agony, Louise Hauken would fire the only killing shot of her career, into her own mouth.
And now Erich Mordh'Dhagai came to claim Shana as his wife.
