Kekoa
(Ke-Koh-Ah)
-Titles-
Brave Warrior
-
KEY INFORMATION:
Nickname/Alias: TOP KEK
Age: 26 Years, or roughly 319 Bright Moon Festivals.
Gender: Ahli / Female
Race: birdperson / One of the Makani people.
Social Status: Caste of YaVeiMakani, The Hunter Winds.
Relationship Status: Non.
Sexuality: Open to interpretation.
Height: 5’3” / 63in / 160cm
Weight: 125lbs
Wingspan: 14’ 1” / 169 inches / 429.26 cm / 4.2926 m
Current Home: Demon's Roost within the "Eastern Continent"
PHYSIOLOGY:
Build: The crown of her skull just above 5ft and weighing in at 125 pounds, Kekoa enjoys all the traits of a pureblooded YaVei and none of the typical tall, slender, female Makani form. She stands shorter than most of her kin, toned muscle built up in her shoulders, wings, and legs - adding onto her overall weight. Fortunately, her wings seem vast enough to compensate.
Eyes: Large and unmoving, her black pupils are framed by grey-white irises that, in certain lights, has a grass-green tint.
Beak: Hard and black, with a small stripe of yellow by her nostril slits. The beak itself is closer to her face, almost as wide as it is long and sharp at the end. Kekoa keeps it well maintained.
Feathers: This Makani is boldly patterned, despite the one-tone nature of her colouring, and ends up mostly white with light brown, dark brown, and tawny accents, black tips and spots on her wings and tail.
Her feathers are mottled and spotted, tawny brown on white, with the backs of her arms and wings striped with brown. Her tail is dark brown at the tip, and pale white at the base while her chest is mostly white, mottled with brown that becomes a dark belly patch. Her legs are covered with thick white-spotted-with-tawny feathers and down just past the knee, farther down than other Makani. Kekoa’s wings are pale on the underwing, with dark patches at the bend of the wing, and her head is white that becomes a mottled brown at the base of her neck.
She preens her headfeathers with pride; They’re stark white and grow outwards from just beyond her eyes and cheeks.
Her head-feathers stand out as three dagger-like points sweeping back from the crown of her head, each comprised of stark white, slim and lithe quills. The plumes are spaced more or less evenly apart, curling slightly inwards the farther they get away.
Skin: Underneath the feathers, Kekoa is clad in mottled peach-toned skin. Her hands, forearms, calves and feet are clad in hard, scaled hide - Toned a ruddy orange brown.
Identifying Marks: There is a C-shaped scar on her left calf, telltale of a lost fight long past. Kekoa is unique among non-Makani, yet when immersed amongst those of her kin she tends to blend in as a very stereotypical YaVeiMakani.
Wardrobe: A simple, and relatively short, wrap-skirt made of coarse uncoloured linen is tied around her waist, under her tailfeathers. Kekoa tends to prefer a larger, similarly uncoloured toga for more ceremonial circumstances.
Hygiene: She preens herself often, and takes care tending to any infestations of mites or lice. Occasionally, Kekoa indulges in a nice dust bath.
Voice: Sharp, and lilting.
Appearance: Kekoa stands tall and proud, her wingtips stretching out nearly seven feet to either side of her at full spread. She’s most often clad in some kind of armour and festooned with weapons in sashes, belts, and bandoliers. There is a haversack slung across her chest, the cacaphony of brown and white garb getting lost amongst her mottled brown, white, and tawny feathers. Her head cocks from side to side, turning so her sharp grey eyes can catch any threats before they come.
Birbspiration: The rough-legged hawk.

Shortcomings:
Languages:
Yakai (Spoken, no written version)
‘Kayamon’ (Spoken: Kekoa has reached a more conversational level after receiving lessons from a groundling her brother paid. Many words still escape her, and although her understanding is more sound, her speaking ability is hampered greatly by her beak.)
(Written: She knows the shape of a few certain, precise words.)
Education: Traditional YaVeiMakani training.
Core Profession: Kekoa is firstly a hunter-gathered of meat. Subsequent professions include her career of choice, as a warrior-guard.
ETHICS AND MOTIVATIONS:
Personality: Despite stereotypes of the YaVeiMakani and her own personal edicts, she is not incapable of laughing and playing and celebrating. Kekoa is a creature of passion, she lives with a fierceness of spirit that makes itself known in all things she does.
Religion/Cults: The Will of Manna and The Three Sisters. She follows their song.
Heritage: Both her mother and father are of the YaVeiMakani, and their clan is strong. Like most of her (half) siblings, Kekoa sought the path of blood and valor - Only one of her clan’s brood opted to work as a shepherd. Her mother is Pauahi (Deceased), named for her golden plumage and one of the wives of her father, Maunakea (fate unknown), The White Mountain. Her most notable sibling is her half-brother Tevis Warwolf

QUALITIES:
Skills/Strengths:
- Warrior: The Hunger Winds serve Manna, and through his will protect their fellow Makani - Even from themselves. Kekoa is proud to uphold Makani law, guard for the A’keiyah, and be bonded with the Ayyei. She is a defender, and to this end has adapted to become a fighter. Her personal style focuses more on offensive maneuvers than defensive ones - Complimenting her brother’s method of combat. Her hands are comfortable around a weapon. She prizes courage, valor, and fervor - Which flavour Kekoa’s combat capabilities.
- Hunter: She can see fine details at great distances, and has honed her stalking and striking skills around this. Like a true YaVei, Kekoa provides for her people - As a studied huntress, familiar with the ways of plainsland-plunder using bow, arrow, and spear.
- Butchery: In the resource-starved (but nonetheless superior) lands of Vata’inu, it would be a moral crime to waste good meat and hide. One must know how to get every good morsel off the bone, every sinew for tools, every scrap of leather-bearing hide.
- Arithmetic: She’s always had an eye for numbers.
- Winged: Theres two big things sticking outta her shoulders and they allow for all sorts of exciting opportunities; Including but not limited to gliding.
- Clawed: All digits of her hands and feet end in sharp claws, her foot-talons the pair more menacing (if you’re a rabbit or young goat). It’s useful for climbing.
- Don't Die Out There: Some basic, rudimentary field medicine. The 'get yourself home alive' kind.
Fears:
- Isolation: Kekoa is not sure if she could bear life without another Makani.
- Storms: Red in the morning, traveler take warning.
- Groundlings: These demons are all the Manna has rejected, and now she has been thrust in the midst of them. It’s grating on her senses in all the worst ways.
Shortcomings:
- Break: Her left leg has been broken in a previous scuffle - It is well healed, by now, but could prove troublesome in the future. Like the other Makani, her bones are fragile and porous and prone to such breaks.
- Deaf and Dull: Kekoa’s hearing is a bit poorer than your average Makani, and her not-so-keen sense of smell is nothing to write home about.
- Unyielding: A YaVeiMakani who has dedicated themselves to the defense of Vata’inu has little time, or social currency, to expend on emotional range and expression. Tradition became habit.
- Xenophobic: The rejection of everything outside her culture provides a barrier in learning to accept necessary changes in life.
- Loneliness: The absence of kind faces and comforting touch is starting to sow hopelessness and despair in her heart.
