Adiska stands about seven-foot-four, with the deep tan of someone who was born in the East and has spend quite a bit of time traveling. Her hair is a reddish-brown, usually kept pulled back into a braid that goes to about her shoulders, bound at the end with a bit of twisted metal wire. Her shoulders are broad enough to knock down a small house with a misplaced shrug, her biceps are larger than some peoples' heads, and she could crush unworked stone to powder with her thighs—but despite this she actually has something of a hourglass figure (even though the narrowest point of her waist is probably wider than most other women). Given her App 4, she's actually pretty attractive... to people who can avoid the thought of getting squished if she sneezes wrong, anyway. Her bust is, in perspective, fairly moderate, but in absolute scale this still adds up to a lot... same with her hips, legs, etc. Her muscles are huge, but without the ugly hypertrophy of weightlifters—it's more the all-around competent musculature an athlete or a wrestler, just amplified quite a bit by her Large status.

Normally, she wears simple traveling clothes—sleeveless, low-collar forest-green shirt with wooden toggle-buttons that seem like they'd be almost awkward for her to get at (over a wrap that binds her breasts enough so they're not a hindrance), and bark-brown pants kept in place with a simple drawstring arrangement. (Resources 2, so an appropriate sort of sturdy-enough cloth for that... I dunno what specifically, maybe linen or something.) On her feet are geta-style wooden (reinforced with metal) sandals with a pair of raised heels, though they have full bindings around the feet instead of just the V-strap. Around her waist, coincidentally wrapping the shirt tight enough to give some idea of her figure, is wrapped several yards of an iron fighting chain, with full macelike heads at the ends twisted together and hanging on one hip.

On her back is a reinforced-lacquered-wood box (it can fold open a couple of ways, and closes with some very solid latches) that serves as a pack—small in perspective to her, though it's enough to carry full traveling provisions and more, and you could probably fit a normal-sized person into it if you pushed hard enough (and folded once or twice). On top of it is tied the large oilskin bag that contains her (large, but very-tightly-rolled) bedroll.

Her Tell is that her fingers and toes are visibly clawlike; this doesn't (normally) increase her ability to do Lethal damage, but it's certainly pretty freaky and hard to hide.

  • Damage Enhancement
    • Claws of the Silver Moon: 4m, 1wp (or 1m or 3m, Gift); Simple (Speed 4) (or Gift); Combo-OK, Gift, Obvious; One scene (or Gift). Natural attacks improved with Accuracy +2 (or +Dexterity for +1m), Damage +(Strength)L, and can parry lethal damage. Pay +1m to add Charm's effects to natural attacks past claws.

  • General
    • First Dexterity Excellency: 1m per die; Reflexive; Combo-OK; Instant.
    • Instinctive Dexterity Unity: 2m+ (up to 6 [Essence x2]), 1wp; Simple; —; One scene. Every 2 motes reduces the cost for the first three Dexterity Excellencies by 1, to a minimum of 0.
  • Movement

Background

Sleepy was a walkin' the earth type, beating the snot out of people who would disturb the peace everywhere she went. This aimlessness was partly because she sort of instinctively knew she'd gotten as good as she ever would (Martial Arts 5, man), but she wasn't willing to follow the Immaculate Path to transcend to something more.

She'd been hired on as a guard for a caravan when Calibration went down. Some totally wicked flash floods and lightning storms screwed up stuff as they tried to make it to high ground, and Sleepy ended up singlehandedly pulling a set of wagons away from being pounded into dirt by the roaring water, or something impressive like that.
