The Details
Born in the northern borders of Shaaloani, where the woods were dense and fauna green, Awinita grew up with a tribe of traditional, hunting Hhetsarro. She was born not versed in magic, having little to no ability to use Aether, so she found it difficult to contribute to the tribe in the same ways as others. She could not heal, she could not cast spells - she could not summon the earth or stars to help her tribe.Though she was very well versed with a bow, her aim next to perfection, growing up she still struggled to keep up with her magically inclined peers.So when, slowly over time, man and machine seemed to broach the shores of the New World, an interest peaked in the young kit. Where she lacked in magic, she found a talent with machines, and seemed to understand their nature as well as mages knew the lifestream.Since gaining this inquisitive nature, Nita realised that the comfortable traditional life was not for her. Living off the land like her parents and her family was not the life that would bring her happiness, and so - she left. Ending up in the care of a not-so-rough and tumble gang is where she began to nurture her curiosity with machines, and though they are often breaking the law, these people are her family.Her personality is a mix, depending on how friendly she may be with you. More often than not she's a little clumsy, head full of too many ideas, and unwilling to stop. It's easy for her to forget to eat, sleep, and everything in between when working on a new idea. And she may or may not throw a wrench at you if you interrupt her. She is, also, incredibly kind and lively when not buried in ideas. The things she likes to make are to help people - to make their lives better, their jobs easier, or just something fun they may enjoy.
The Hooks
Mechanical Mind: Awinita, despite living with law breakers and gang members, is an avid mechanic and inventor. She is well known around the small towns of Shaaloani as being a good pair of hands to fix on the fritz machinery. You just need to be able to overlook the company she keeps.Here Comes Trouble: As mentioned, Nita is part of a gang of individuals who are doing their best in these desert lands to make ends meet; as it's not always that easy. You could be a lawmaker or a lawbreaker, but maybe they've ran into each other.From The Past: Nita was, somewhat of an oddity in her tribe when she was younger. Either from her almost hyperactive nature or the machines she tried to make to help, if their tribes crossed paths when they were younger - she would have surely stood out.And many more!
