I Try Today

**Aurora Goldfist** - ocassionally just **"The Goldfist"** - is the Pigmen leader of the Imperial Loyalists who will be integral to surpressing rebellion within the Nether. She will make her debut in *I Try Today*.

Aurora was created by swingingisnice, who posted their submission in #character-suggestions-for-series on official Rainimator's Discord server. Rainimator accepted the character as leader of the Imperial Loyalists on Jan 6th, 2024.

## Design

Aurora is a desaturated, zombified Pigmen, shorter than most of her species, with red iris' and black sclera. Her skull is shown jutting out of her skin for an unknown reason, and her zombification has reached the point that her right arm has bone showing. Aurora wears a brown, medieval tunic with a leather belt, in turn adorned with a large, golden buckle. Her left arm has been replaced with a golden prosthetic arm, hence her name.

## Personality

According to her doc, Aurora is "Cold, Serious, Obedient" and that she "just does what she’s told to do."

## Skills

According to her doc, Aurora is very fast and agile fighter, skilled with axes in particular. Her prosthetic arm is able to be used as a shield and to seize sharp weapons, and as a pigmen, she has extremely high fire resistance. Her agile build, however, does leave her rather subsceptible to more critical damage upon being struck, due to having less natural defense then her breathren.

Magic wise, she is unable to utilize it, and is actually weak to magic itself.
