Luna Fay [lu-NA • f-AY] is a pint-sized punk and Miqo'te "pirate" of seventeen cycles. With a wanderer's soul and salty sea-dog's spirit, Luna freelances her sleuth and herbalism skills to anyone with the right amount of shiny. To Luna there are no sides, just herself, in a world playing the game of survival with failing health. Her ultimate quest(s...) is to become a ninja, be the most deadly kitten on the block, and beat life at its own game.

Appearance & Personality

In three words, Luna is short, supple and slender. A smallfry on the Miqo'te scale, she stands 4 fulms 10 ilms and 90 ponz. Her Keeper heritage is glaringly obvious, what with her luminous amethyst eyes, moon-bathed skin and snow-white hair. For someone who boasts of brawn, Luna appears (humorously so) the opposite: small boned, girlishly figured, childish pigtails... not to mention an undeniable air of cute. Even so, with closer attention, there is also something feral, predatory... blood-thirsty?, which invokes a sense of foreboding while hinting at a clever facade (like an evil chihuahua... *shudders*).

But for those who don't look that closely, or just don't care, or like it... Luna is a free-spirited free-thinker with a insatiable desire for play (... if she didn't look purely Moon-kitty, you'd suspect she was Sunny). She likes to josh around and be mysterious, both quietly and not so quietly finding/creating all sorts of trouble. She's not afraid to get her hands dirty and likes to get into a good scrap, which kind of goes hand in hand with her lust for quick, chaotic situations.

But there is also the Luna that she keeps carefully concealed under lock and key. Unlike her persona, the self is weak. Lonely. She was made a mother too young, and has always given herself and her loved ones what they need. A breadwinner as a child, Luna seeks the fun and freedom she's never truly grasped; except in the pocket of another.

Combat

Dexterity and Speed - On account of being kind of shrimpy, Luna relies on her agility and cat-like (ha) reflexes to evade, counter and conquer. She has quite a bit of stamina, allowing her to dip, dodge and duck her opponent's strikes for quite some time before wearing out. Even so, she is not the Flash can be incapacitated with a well-placed bop on the nose. See the trope Fragile Speedster below.

Deception and Manipulation - Inherent of her gender and the most deadly of her arsenal, Luna can screw with you in all sorts of ways... without you even knowing! She hopes, at least. Mind games.

Stealth - Other than wielding battle-instruments, this is Luna's favourite part. I mean, she ain't called "Skulk" for nothing, and darkness is her dearest friend.

Weapons - The key for Luna here is creativity. Sure, it's fun to snipe with a bow and lacerate with a knife, but Luna likes to makeshift her environment into equipment if possible. 'Cause there's nothing as priceless as the surprise in an opponent's face when you come at them with a clothing rack. (Much like the stunts of Jackie Chan! Har har.)

Eyes of a Killer - When her pupils dilate so much that black pools nearly engulf her irises, beware. The transition is sudden, but indicates a deadly purpose.

Footnotes

TV Tropes: Evil is Cool Loveable Rogue Fragile Speedster Manic Pixie Dream Girl Curious As A Monkey

Luna is inspired by, and a mix of, the playful ninja from Samurai Warriors and little miss Rambo, Hit-Girl. For Luna, I would like a partnership or for her to work alongside someone - that is, someone (or an idea) worthy of her respect ('cause she's not into permanent things and digs freedom). Similar to how Kunoichi fights for Yukimara and Hit-Girl helps Kick-Ass. Up to negotiations, and would be a gradual companionship!

Totally down for establishing RP links from her past! All my yeses!
