TREASURES (open) TREASURES (close)

Wall Walking - By concentrating one's willpower into the soles of their feet, the user can easily walk (but not run) upon walls and ceilings. Once this effect has been established, it requires some concentration to maintain, but that concentration increases greatly if the user is not barefoot. If the user has a Power or Wisdom of at least 3: The effect can be maintained as usual while wearing footwear.

RACIAL ABILITIES (open) RACIAL ABILITIES (close)

Gerudo Dragon - A secret technique generally taught to young Gerudo warriors-in-training. The user's fist or weapon flashes with power, and they then lunge forward to deal a vicious uppercut, unleashing some form of effect with their fist or a melee weapon in the process. Possible effects vary by the user, but can include many variations of flames, electricity, ice, poison, light, darkness, wind, etc. The effect is specific to the user, and its effect cannot be changed once this technique is learned.

Wall Kick - Growing up in a society that highly values athletic ability and combat strength, the wall kick is one of many abilities a young Gerudo will be expected to master. She has trained in agility as well as power, and so as an adult possesses the nigh-superhuman ability to jump-kick off walls with ease, even several times consecutively.

Hat is quite unlike Hylians’ general perception of the Gerudo---she’s anything but a femme fatale. She is tall, even for her race, with a lanky, angular frame. She is muscled, with a small amount of body fat, and narrow chest---she is sometimes mistaken for a male, not that she minds much. More observant onlookers will notice she still has wide hips. Typical of her race, she has copper skin, red hair (although shortly cropped), yellow eyes, and a large nose. She has dark, expressive eyebrows, and prominent cheekbones. Her arms and back are covered in tattoos; if one looks closer, they’ll see that the tattoos are there to camouflage old scars. The tattoos are mostly abstract, but on her left arm is a tattoo of one of a dragon.

Her clothes tend to be simple, worn, and in neutral colors. She doesn’t bother with makeup despite Gerudo customs, nor does she have any interest in jewelry. When traveling outside of the desert’s heat, she wears a hooded black cloak. She goes bare footed to avoid interference with wall walking, and as a result her feet are rough and calloused.


Personality: Hatshepsut has been likened to several unpleasant things, but her favorite so far is a rat. ‘Rats are smart, tenacious, and cuddly,’ she reasons. ‘It’s a compliment.’ She is generally laid back, but her cocky attitude, kleptomania (not an exaggeration; she genuinely has the impulse control disorder), and fast-talking mouth get her into her fair share of trouble.

She generally likes people and enjoys their company, but she is not above stealing from them when their backs are turned---or simply waltzing into their homes at night and helping herself to their food. Even though she is talented at theft, she considers herself a bard over a thief. She loves her music to the point where she ignores any criticism, even when it’s warranted. Her voice, although low and somewhat unconventional, isn’t unpleasant to listen to, and her lute playing is okay. The ham-fisted nature of her lyrics (when she can string coherent lyrics together at all), however, is laughable. She mostly sings lyrical versions of old legends and stories, her favorite being about Koholint, the purgatory for those who have drowned at sea.

Despite her warrior upbringing and adventurous nature, Hat will always run from a fight. If cornered, she’ll fight bare handed, or use her utility knife as a makeshift weapon.


Residence: She has a home in the fortress, but she travels more than she sleeps there.

Pet: n/a

Backstory: Hat was a completely average trainee in the fortress. Along with her two sisters, she trained to become a warrior. During a noob scouting mission, her and her peers were attacked. Hatshepsut did not do well in battle. After nearly dying and suffering a severe injury to her right shoulder, she was dismissed from duty. Luckily, she lived, though never fully recovered; her right shoulder still acts up on occasion, though it’s more annoying than debilitating. Eerily enough, Hat bounced back brighter and sunnier than ever after her near-death-experience---but she probably won’t stay so sunny if you ask her for war stories.

After Ganon’s invasion died down some and moved on to Death Mountain, Hat left the fortress, and has been traveling seemingly without aim ever since. On her way she has found a partner in crime, Rayna*, and they have been making mischief in Hyrule since.

(*Rook's character)

I really like this character! The only thing I would comment on is the fact that you used Eldin as a tattoo, the thing is, HC's lore is not connected to any one game or the "timeline" of the games, so Eldin may or may not have ever existed. He may even exist in the future! So perhaps you could change that to an ancient dragon or something? Really its just a nit pick, and its not something that hinges on the acceptance of the character.

Accepted.

I can edit it out if necessary, but I figured that whether or not they actually physically existed in the HC timeline, that they would probably be a part of Hyrule's legends.
