Kainatsu

====Appearance====
Pale, silver-grey hide mottled with light brown, dark mane worn in long pigtails, and of average build for a young Shu'halo barely of adventuring age, save that she's gained a little around the middle and the chest after the birth of her first child. The weapons she carries tend to look almost too big for her. Around her neck is a string of centaurs' ears worn as a grisly sort of necklace. She tends to grin a lot and speak very emphatically - albeit also somewhat childishly for her age. Conversely, she can rattle off all sorts of technobabble, most of it about explosives, with an accuracy and rapidity rarely seen.
====Personality====
Kai is, to put it bluntly, damaged goods with serious Daddy issues, though she seems to be slowly outgrowing it. Having been whisked away from the tribe and isolated by her grief-stricken father as "Daddy's girl," she grew up with a childlike mindset and serious temper issues. In the space of a scant few minutes, she can go from worshipping the very ground that Daddy walks on to a frothing rage of violence, swinging huge axes and tossing explosives about with wild abandon. She is ferociously loyal to her tribe, and murderously protective of her father. She is largely distrustful of "pointy-ears" women, claiming that they're "trying to steal Daddy away," and only grudgingly tolerates the tribe's adoption of a blood elf into their ranks.
She loves cute and cuddly things... especially if she can figure out how to make them explode, and she has a disturbing penchant for explosive sheep. Her only calming influences, aside from her father, are her mate, and now their newborn son.
====History====
Kai was born to the chieftain of the Emberhorn and his first wife, at a time when the tribe was hard at war with the centaur, before Thrall and the orcs came. When she was small, she saw her mother killed by centaur raiders and lifted up her first weapon, hacking at the corpse of a fallen centaur with her mother's greataxe in an unprecedented display of rage. Subsequently, she was taken away from the tribe by her father's grief-stricken wandering, and was raised alone by him. Without children her own age or teachers to guide her, and often simply left to watch as her father threw himself into battle after battle, she grew to adult age with a childish mindset and very little control over her temper. After years of caring for her father during those years, tending to him when he was drunk, ill, or injured, she came to view herself as his caretaker and her mother's rightful replacement.
On returning to the tribe, the daily contact with other young men and women her own age has gone a long way toward easing her difficulties in maturing, and she has shown rapid progress - though she still maintains a childlike enthusiasm in everything she does. She has even come to accept her father's new wife as a sort of surrogate mother, though she remains resentful that she was not her father's first choice. During a long sojourn in the Barrens, she met a directionally-challenged Taunka druid named Ahilami. Lami, seemingly always lost, somehow touched upon her protective instincts and quickly became an important part of her daily life. She has recently given birth to their first child, and has settled down somewhat with the tribe for the time being.
