It buried itself deep in the earth, only to be sought out and prospected shortly after by the mining crews of the industrious dwarves. As it turns out, stars are made of iron! Astral Iron is the ore that is mined from the Nathaar Crater. The ferrous rock is shipped all over Obsoul to those willing to pay its steep cost. The Dwarves adamantly decline offers of exclusive contracts for their ore, and sell it freely to anyone that can pay for it. The grey-skinned miners make it a point to give every buyer an equal opportunity to purchase from them. Thus, they will not supply huge shipments to outfit entire regiments. There is more demand for the ore than they can meet with supply, so the dwarves are in no danger of losing business. <br/><br/>Shipping to (this continent) is no exception. The iron has unique properties that make it exceedingly effective against the dragons that plague that land. However, crossing the vast oceans can take months, and the trip is known to be hazardous. Some freighters never make it to shore. Needless to say, Astral Iron weapons are a prized commodity among dragon slayers. But because of their price and difficulty of attainment, they are hardly a common sight. <br/><br/>It should also be noted that this celestial ore is irradiated. In small amounts, Astral Iron is not dangerous. Owners, and merchants of the weapons and armor made form the metal are (usually) in no danger from this peculiar property. However, the danger of the mines are another story. The Dwarves that work in the Nathaar mines cannot do so for more than six months before starting to suffer from the adverse effects of radiation poisoning.</div></div></li><li>Silvered Short Sword</li><li>Iron Dagger</li><li>Hunting Bow</li><li>Quiver of Arrows (x24)</li></ul><br/><em>Armor:</em><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Leather/Plated Mail Armor</li><li>Signet Pauldron (Left Shoulder)</li></ul><br/><em>Other:</em><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Travel pack with general trail items (Bedroll, flint, hatchet, rations, coin purse, clothes, etc.)</li><li>Pack Animal (Mule, usually)</li></ul><br/><strong>Quirks:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>-Superstitious-</em></li></ul>There are only three blacksmiths that Khaida trusts to forge her iron spears. Someone who hunts dragons as avidly as this Lancer goes through a lot of broken spears. It's inevitable. However, she is very superstitious about where she gets them from, and how they are made. In all the colonies and fortified outposts, she has only ever met three such individuals that can forge her weapons to her specified need.<br/><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>-Oral fixation-</em></li></ul>Khaida is always chewing on something, or has some object placed between her lips (not a sexual cue). This can be anything from jerked meat (seriously, not trying to be sexual here), to a cut of cord. A favored item of hers to gnaw upon is a chitinous back scale taken from larger dragons.<br/><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>-Unabashed-</em></li></ul>Perhaps it came from living out in the field for so long, perhaps it was from being in the constant company of so many men. Whatever the reason, Khaida has a very tomboyish demeanor. She spits, cusses, and does not exhibit traditionally ladylike qualities. Such is the environment of her profession. She also frequently regards her own nakedness as mundane and commonplace, unclothing herself and even rinsing in rivers and streams alongside her male brethren of the hunt.<br/><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>-Goblin Affinity-</em></li></ul>Having had plenty of exposure to goblins, Khaida has grown a certain proclivity to their race. She enjoys their company as fellow hunters, and has even slept with one such male. Khaida is familiar with their general culture, and speaks a broken dialect of their common tongue.<br/><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>-Damaged-</em></li></ul>Khaida's body is riddled with scars and blemishes from traumas past. All these serve to remind Khaida of her faltering, and she does her best not to repeat them. The most visibly obvious of her damages to onlookers are:<br/>† Burns on the back of her neck from a drakaur's breath of fire<br/>† A horizontal cut across her nose and cheek from a Wyvern's wing-talon<br/>† A visible limp caused from a deep Hydra's bite into her right thigh<br/><br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Hunting Dragons/Monsters</li><li>Killing Dragons/Monsters</li><li>Getting paid</li><li>Acquiring better gear</li><li>Earning reputation for her guild</li></ul><br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Long and dreary travel time</li><li>Skimp rations</li><li>Hot weather</li><li>Bickering/disorganized parties</li><li>Over-planning</li><li>Clinginess</li><li>Futas/Herms</li><li>Effeminate Males</li></ul><br/><strong>Fears:</strong><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Loss of her remaining family</li><li>Becoming crippled indefinitely</li><li>Emotional attachment</li><li>Liches and other major undead</li><li>Deep Water/Cannot swim</li><li>Becoming Pregnant</li></ul><br/><strong>Hates:</strong><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Dragons (duh!)</li><li>Lesser draconians (they are dragons, too!)</li><li>Cowards, liars, and thieves</li><li>Drawn out conversations</li><li>Incessantly touchy men (or women)</li><li>Wasting time, being held back by weak party members</li><li>Dragon Riders</li></ul></div></div>
