Kathrine Pine

## Appearance

Currently wearing a nice purple and white tracksuit. Dark honey-brown hair, fairly long but tied up in a high braided ponytail to be kept out of the way. Amber eyes. A rather small person, overall. Described in one word, most would say cute. Carries a compact single strap backpack.

## Personality

Kathrine thinks a lot but tends to come to fairly straightforward conclusions. She’s prone to taking the route which is easiest, and which will not cause her to lose things, as well as avoids violence as best as is possible. She doesn’t feel obligation the same way most people do, so although she will hand out random acts of kindness, if it would hinder her goal, or cause her to lose something, she won’t help. She does still try to be polite, though. She follows her own set of rules, which she also tends to project onto the world around her.

Kathrine doesn’t have many things she cares about, or people she cares about, but those few she does care about are very important to her. In her mind, the only things that really matter are herself and those she cares about. If the world ended and she and her mother were both okay, she would feel no pity for the death of the entire human race.

Kathrine is the most patient person you will ever meet.

If she is overwhelmed and or can’t grasp her situation Kathrine can become prone to panic.

## Backstory

Born in a city in the west of the Mimbo republic to a rich couple, Kathrine was raised in luxury until she was eight. It was only shortly before her eighth birthday that her father, an influential politician in the country, was elected into a governmental position higher than he had previously held, much to the irritation of his many, many political opponents. He was assassinated on Kathrine’s birthday, on his way home.

After the assassination Kathrine’s mother, being sickly and unable to take most kinds of work, did her best to support her daughter. The family’s savings ran out in four years, and Kathrine’s mother worked herself mostly to death only a year later. The thirteen year old Kathrine decided to take matters into her own hands, despite her timidness, and managed to find a kind young woman who was willing to take care of her mother. Kathrine then began to train herself in many ways, studying and training her body, in order to take the Hunter exam.

In her own mind, Kathrine couldn’t see herself as a Hunter. But she had heard her mother’s stories many times about her brothers, Kathrine’s uncles, who were both Hunters. And how her mother had wished so badly to be a Hunter as well, but was unable to become one due to her poor health. If her mother had wanted to become a Hunter despite her poor health, and tried to take the exam six times, Kathrine could surely do it. She was, after all, not sickly like her mother.

On her fifteenth birthday Kathrine’s mother gave her a strange assortment of gifts, saying two of them were from her uncles who had heard of her wish to become a Hunter. A finely crafted butterfly knife, a map with the location of the next Hunter exam on it, and a pair of letters. And from her mother, a small backpack with a number of necessities already packed. Two weeks later, Kathrine was on her way.
