She also currently has a bald patch on her neck from several feathers being pulled out and incisions being made.

### **Attire**

Yuki wears as little armour as she needs to, protecting only the essential organs, as she prefers to remain as lightweight as possible so that she can fly fast.

## **Personality**

Yuki is a confident, determined, and unflappable fighter, who reminds herself to focus upon "the here and now" rather than anything sad or traumatic that has happened in the past. She is highly feisty and has a strong sense of honor, but also is not above straight up killing anyone who poses themselves as a threat.

## **Abilities**

Yuki is a mid-level Fighter, proficient in most weapons, however her favoured weapons are long pole arms like the glaive or nagitana.

* **Snow Warning**

## **History**

Yuki declares herself to be a Vampire Hunter, an Adventurteer, and a slayer. From what has already been revealed of her, she has traveled all over the place and has had many adventures. She claims to have killed a tarraesque in somewhere called Itlimoc, and almost immediately upon waking informs the Clawbreakers "We've got a vampire to slay."

## **Quotes**

* "Babybird?"
* "We've got a Vampire to slay."
* "What's an Eldath?"
* "What are they doing to the minature Nishoba?"
* "Well.... you're still my good babybird. Just make sure you think before you do anything stupid like think you can stop an avalanche by throwing a tree in its path or punching a rock because someone triped over it."
* "Focus on the here and now."
* "We were hunting down some vampires who were being pests in the south for a short while. They get everywhere. And then we get a message from home that Lynde wasnt too happy about being argued with by Pretty and then we came rushing back to try and find out what had happened. When I got back home, there were lots of these sky-stars everywhere and weird creatures and dinosaurs hopping back and forth between them. We go through after hearing that they came through one and -pop- we're on the other side and the mountains are all in the wrong places, the temples and buildings too."
