Acts-With-Vengeance (Farname: Bat Hawk)
A Krr'chee'aw who lost their flock to a naga raiding party. Though they were always rather troublesome, this was the straw that broke the camel's back. Ever since, they developed a deep resentment for the world and feel no shame inflicting their pain upon others.
Appearance
With narrow, pointed wings and a long fan tail, Acts is a Krr designed for pure speed. They're swift, stealthy, and precise. Their skin is a dark grey and their orange-yellow eyes are big and round. Their internal beak is small but no less sharp. Their features are sharp and pointed and even their feathered ears are narrow. Their head is covered in black feathers and a small crest on their scalp can be raised and lowered.
Though their feathers are mostly pitch and unadorned, there's a bright and big patch of white on their throat. They have the usual six limbs with dark scutes and talons. Small black tufts of feathers adorn their elbows and the heels of their digitigrade and anisodactyl legs.
Skills and Abilities
- Mental: Acts is quick-witted and mentally sharp. They're cunning and determined, which makes them hard to shake or deter once they've set a goal. They're suave for a Krr'chee'aw, but this doesn't mean much. This actually just translates to "average" so they're less likely to offend.
- Physical: They are built for speed and agility and their dark plumage blends in well with the night. As a result, they make for an excellent scout. They cannot, however, see in the dark any better than a human. Their speed and agility also translates well on the ground and they make a formidable and terrifying foe, with swift and flexible movements in melee combat and a good aim when using slingshots. This comes at the cost of physical strength, which they definitely lack.
- Artistic: Like most Krr'chee'aw, Acts-With-Vengeance is a great singer and dancer, but that's all they have going creative wise, and it's very average for their species.
Personality
Acts-With-Vengeance, true to their name, is a very angry bird. They're quite hateful of the world around them, especially nagas, but much of this is projection. They're quite angry with themself above much else for failing to save their flock from a naga attack. They're very violent and destructive at times but know to keep it down and only let it out when there wouldn't be immediate consequences. They have some loyalty to those who would show them that same courtesy though. They have the capacity to be reluctantly nice or even kind to those they consider flockmates.
Mostly though, Acts is truly ruthless and merciless; if crossed they would see retribution through. It's rare for them to let someone go. They have no real sense of going "too far" and tend to be brutal in situations. They're the kind of person to steal candy from a baby and then call the baby "pitiful" for crying. Indeed, this Krr is a rare case of a truly evil individual, and is too far gone to be "fixed". Despite all this anger and cruelty, Acts-With-Vengeance can put on a polite face and frequently does. One doesn't have to be nice to be polite, after all.
In summary, Acts-With-Vengeance is ruthless, cruel, evil, cunning, manipulative, brutal, violent, and loyal.
