ZINNIA
Zinnia is a feral, cursed child, cursed by the old gods for lacking a tribute she didn't know about. As a result, she is half-monster, bearing ears and tail and fur and claws. She is feral, raised by monsters in the wild, able to use their techniques to survive. The one person who showed her kindness, the one person who saw her as a human, is now the only one in the world who matters to her, and she will follow that girl to the ends of the earth.
Zinnia is:
- A half-monster. Her sclera are black, her eyes are red, her hair is black and turns red at the tips. She has animal ears, a tail, and when agitated, gains more monstrous traits, usually her right arm becoming a beast's, long and large enough to drag on the ground, with wicked, sharp claws. She can also shapeshift out other monstrous traits, but it is borderline-uncontrollable.
- Cursed by old gods. In addition to her monstrous appearance, she is also prone to berserker fits, and brings misfortune to those around her, as though her mere presence invites bad luck.
- Loyal. Her chief trait, her greatest strength, is her infallible, absolute loyalty to those who have given her kindness.
- Feral. She doesn't understand most human social structures. She's trying her best, but she still has a way of thinking close to monsters, that anything should be done to survive, and that hunting and killing are a necessary way to live. That said, she will also never allow killing or harming others that isn't done to survive.
- Human. No matter her body, her heart is human.
Zinnia is not:
- Cruel. She is feral, but not cruel. She accepts killing, even other humans, if it must be done to live. But killing without purpose is something she will not accept. She can be prickly, especially to people she doesn't know, but she will never hurt others willingly, though her berserker fits can sometimes cause problems.
- Stupid. She has trouble with understanding human norms, true, but she is still sharp. She learns quickly.
- A monster. Judge her at your own risk.
Prompts:
Assumed CR, AUs, setting transplants, suddenly you're in a jamjar, anything goes. You can make up your own! Otherwise...
You may run into her into a town, where a woman covered by a cloak is walking. And if you accidentally bump into her... Well, you can see her freaky eyes, big animal ears, and what is definitely blood around her mouth. Maybe you should do something?
