Urrukka (oo-ROO-kah)

Character design by FawndestMemories, story and personality by orphidor

Urrukka

By most standards, Urrukka would be considered mad. The way her mind works makes little sense to outside observers. She is, however, deeply intelligent, and one could argue that her eccentricity aids her in her studies of the Celestial Stratagem.   Urrukka's Mental and Emotional Facets are stronger than her Physical Facet.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

She is slender and lithe, with a sleek build and a flat chest. While naturally graceful, she isn't particularly athletic.

Body Features

Her upper half has four arms and her lower half resembles the body of a snake. The blood in her veins is dark green.

Facial Features

Urrukka's chin is sharp, as is her nose, which is slightly upturned. Her eyes are eerily wide and round. She has small, pointed ears which are usually hidden under her hair.

Identifying Characteristics

Her eyes are a remarkable shade of pink-purple. She usually bears an uncanny smile on her face. Birds constantly flock around her.

Special abilities

Urrukka's Boon is the ability to speak with birds, but the creatures are extremely suspicious of her until she takes the time to gain their trust. She uses the ability to spy on events taking place within the Tanglewood.

Apparel & Accessories

Urrukka enjoys feminine dresses, blouses, and skirts in a wide variety of bright colors (especially purple.) She always wears a slouched pointy hat with a wide brim, which she decorates with a variety of plants and other objects she finds in the forest surrounding her home.

Specialized Equipment

She must modify her clothing by removing the sleeves of stolen blouses and dresses to accommodate her double set of arms. Luckily, she is fairly adept at sewing.

Mental characteristics

Gender Identity

Like all Camua, Urrukka has no physical sex, but she is unique among her race because she identifies as female and enjoys feminine ways of expressing herself. She is mostly content with her body and the way she presents, but she does wish she had a bust like many women of other races.

Sexuality

She does not experience sexual attraction.

Education

Her self-teaching and mentorship from her parent have more than compensated for Urrukka's lack of a formal education.

Employment

Due to her isolation and lack of interest in obeying anyone besides herself, she has never been officially employed.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Thus far, Urrukka has completed three tomes documenting her observations of the Celestial Stratagem. She has also amassed a small army of birds who obey her requests to watch what goes on in the Tanglewood and report back to her with their findings, as well as to find interesting objects and bring them back for her to admire.

Failures & Embarrassments

She is pleased with her own appearance and finds herself beautiful, but not everyone else she's met has shared the same sentiment. When others look at her with pity or even disgust, Urrukka becomes deeply upset that they don't realize how lovely she is. Her only slight disappointment with her own body is her lack of a feminine chest.

Intellectual Characteristics

Others are likely to believe that Urrukka is decidedly insane, but in reality, she's mostly just eccentric. She has an unusual perception of beauty and morality, but her grasp on reality is mostly-solid and she faces no difficulty in her daily life due to the way her mind works.   Her intelligence types are linguistic, logical, and naturalistic.

Morality & Philosophy

Urrukka doesn't see anything wrong with killing or stealing. In fact, in her eyes, doing harm to others is just doing to them what they would have done to her if given the chance. She assumes that everyone is cunning and ruthless, so she needs to act swiftly and decisively to protect herself.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Her main motivation is collecting both information and objects. Urrukka's home is filled with an extensive collection of various oddities and specimens as well as pilfered books about any subject imaginable. These hoards are her pride and joy. She is constantly looking to add anything and everything she can to them.

Likes & Dislikes

Loves collecting and birds. Likes pretty clothing and jewelry. Dislikes the cold. Hates being perceived with disgust or pity.

Virtues & Personality perks

Urrukka's mind is eerily sharp, meaning that she's great at retaining information, synthesizing ideas, and using what she's learned to deduce truths about new topics. She's also unafraid to boldy be herself and embrace the things that make her unique (even though those things might be considered "creepy" or "weird" to others.)

Vices & Personality flaws

Urrukka doesn't spend much time thinking about matters of morality. She assumes the worst in others and uses that as justification for her own less-than-kind tendencies.

Personality Quirks

She constantly flicks her tongue out as a way to better perceive and understand her surroundings. She never stops moving and has has a tendency to bend her body in graceful-yet-strange ways.

Hygiene

Doesn't mind getting a little muddy or dusty, but will clean herself once she becomes "too dirty" by her own peculiar standards.
