Ruka

**Ruka** is a female fire spirit character played by Chimemera in CloverCraft Season 3.

## Appearance

Ruka takes the appearance of a pale skinned humanoid female with grey eyes, pronounced fangs, long dark red hair that has two large wings coming from either side of her head. She wears a stylized black dress with gold trimmings similar to Asian origin with a bright red sleeve on her left arm over her black gloves that in in frays. She wears white socks with traditional black Asian sandals.

## Personality

Ruka seems to be very sensitive about the topic of her wings, claiming that they are clip ons, and should not be touched.

## History

### Pre-Apocalypse

When Ruka was younger, her people would put out lanterns to help travelers who lost their way.

Not much is currently known about Ruka's life prior to the apocalypse. She has mentioned renting a room in the now abandoned village, having been asleep since the village was above ground.

### Post-Apocalypse

Ruka woke up in the now underground, abandoned village, extremely confused at the change of scenery as well as the new residents in the town, Subject-03, Rayvoba, Shradee and Xerana. While still confused, she helped them gather resources to help survive underground and eventually met Dominick Orsetto, confusing the mafia boss with her cultural differences.

Ruka continued to gather materials and help increase the visibility of the village, so she could find it easier while exploring. Eventually Shradee, who had left much earlier, returned and began to irritate the inhabitants, insulting them and such. Ruka eventually managed to convince Shradee to live on the outskirts of town to help ward off invaders and invite travelers in. Though this was short lived as Shradee returned wearing a skeletal head piece and claimed to be a different person. This was interrupted by the arrival of Edgar Garshmanta, who believed he stepped into an alternate dimension. Ruka, interested in this "alternative town" joined Edgar and Shradee back through the nearby Nether Portal and visited the town consisting of Aria, Lotus, Emrys Taylor and Kuro. Despite Shradee's attempt of confusing the new group, Ruka learned that Aria is familiar with Soobert. Due to the lateness, Ruka stayed the night at the new town, but was in an unknown location the following morning, causing the group to believe that Ruka murdered "Bone Boy."

The next day eventually came about and Ruka had finally awoken to the empty town. Gathering some context that Bone Boy had died, Ruka left to find her way back to her own town. With some difficulties, Ruka then decided to return back to "Dragon Town" and ask Chira and Lotus for directions back. They brought them back to Edgar's portal, running back into Shradee once more to her annoyance, but came back to town. Now back in town, Xerana explained to Ruka that she is a suspect from a detective for the murder of Bone Boy, though she and everyone else believes it to be Shradee. Dr. Soobert then gathered Ruka, Rayvoba and Xerana to discuss finally naming the town, to which they all decide to call it properly Lessirvirs. From there, Ruka decided to improve her home while Aria and Kuro passed through the town due to complications of making a tower between the two towns. Ruka did deliver a Soobie Moneypop to Dr. Soobert on the request of Kuro, much to the confusion of both. After some construction, Ray Romano arrived in town all of a sudden causing a lot of commotion. After watching Ariatown members contemplate Ray as they left to their town, Ruka left to collect more materials using the town connecting tunnels and returned home.

Ruka would occissionally appear in the Underground, but mostly kept to herself and stayed asleep in her lava-filled room. It is unknown if she escaped the Underground, or if she remained asleep in the town.

## Abilities

**Fire Spirit Physiology**: Ruka has a unique body being a fire spirit. Outwardly, she appears mostly human, with the most notable additions being the two wing-like limbs sprouting from her head.

* **Lava Immunity**: Being a Fire Spirit, Ruka has the ability to be submerged in lava with no adverse effects. This allows her to treat lava much like humans do water, swimming in it with no issues.
* **Water Weakness**: Ruka's body has issues with water, the cooling affect it has causes her to feel pain. Even when presented with warmed water, she still claims it is not hot enough for her.

## Trivia

* Ruka knew about Dwarven civilizations, and said they loved mining diamonds.
* Ruka has held presidential office in the Fairy communities, and due to Fairy law, cannot hold a position in office any more.
