Appearance:

Toned and athletic, Dhessa has a rather imposing presence, not only because of her reptile traits but her overall build and above-average height. Despite her rough and wild appearance and her lack of clothing she usually acts prideful and a notorious smug aura follows her whenever she’s in public. Her blonde hair looks rather beautiful even though she doesn’t take much care of it, and perfectly fits her blue reptile eyes and compliments well her crimson red scales and sunkissed skin, it’s somewhat easy to spot old scars all over her body, though none seems to be specially deep or gruesome.

While in temperate or warm places she barely uses clothes, nothing further than the minimal coverage, which could prove to be scarce given her figure, yet in cold environments she tends to cover herself with everything she finds to keep her body warm for as long as she can.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Early life

Dhessa had a common childhood for one of her kin, roamed the jungle with her mother learning the way of life of a nomad predator, the jungle is a simple place and she understood it fast, everything in this small world wanted to kill her and she needed to be the same to survive. Soon enough she became an acknowledged huntress and started leading her own path, it wasn’t easy, as beautiful the jungle might seem, it is an extremely unwelcoming place to live, and so she ended up exploring other ways… That’s exactly what she found as she discovered a small human settlement.

She wasn’t one specially attracted to the unknown but some promises and vague dreamy explanations ended up with her boarding a ship and crossing the sea, she could barely speak, not to mention her complete lack of reading skills, she was easy to fool and was sold as a slave without even understanding what a slave was. The young lizardkin served as a gladiator at Tidehaven’s Bloodhouse Arena, fighting warriors and creatures from all around Eluaria, the time she understood her situation she was already too trapped and maybe too scared to do anything about it, so she kept fighting until she lost her right eye, her master started to think about getting a new warrior and she quickly realized she had to escape or her life wouldn’t last much more, and so she did… Now she’s homeless and seeking a new home.

Mental TraitsHer reptile nature and uncivilized upbringing made her a rather unsociable creature, but she's trying her best to change that fact.
IlliterateShe’s never learnt to properly read and her communicative skills are more limited than she would like to admit.	InstinctiveAs most reptiles her instincts tend to take priority over her rationality, making it difficult for her to think while under pressure or strong stimuli.
Physical TraitsHer reptile nature gives her some advantages and flaws relative to her body.
Cold BloodAs most reptiles she’s cold-blooded and can’t regulate her body temperature without an outside source of warmth. If she’s exposed to a cold environment she’ll start feeling weak and finally fall in hibernation and possibly die if left unattended.	ScalesHer scales are sturdy and meant as a defensive trait against the dangers that plague her environment, the big scales on her shins, forearms and tail are rigid and hard as bone, the smaller ones around her body have a more rubbery tact and are flexible.	CamouflageShe’s capable of concealing her presence using mimetic camouflage, she doesn’t turn invisible but rather her whole body shift colors to match her environment making it difficult to spot her, especially if she’s not moving.
ClawsThe razor-sharp claws on her hands and feet are perfect weapons to restrain or kill her prey but she usually uses them to skillfully climb all kinds of surfaces, her species are inherently tree-dwelling so she’s used to moving around the large jungle trees. Due to her claws not being retractable handling delicate items or other small sized mechanisms becomes quite challenging.	TeethEven if she’s capable of using archaic weapons and tools, she still tends to finish her prey using her sharp teeth, this instinctive behavior can even put her into dangerous situations.	TailHer 3 meter long tail is quite a versatile appendage, the most common use would be helping her while climbing but it’s also a good resource while fighting or hunting, being able to restrain, throw or lash.
EyesHer blue slit eyes are mostly used to dark environments, being unable to focus properly in brighter places. A wound on her face rendered her right eye completely blind.	TongueThe 20cm long prehensile tongue in her mouth is extremely sensitive, her sense of smell relies mostly on this appendage and it can easily guide her to fresh blood miles away from her location.	EarsHer hearing sense is sharp and she relies more on it than her vision. Her pointy ears are usually droopy to avoid high pitched or deafening sounds from reaching directly, when she’s focused her ears tend to perk up slightly to sense much subtler sounds.
RegenerationAs a lizard she has the capability to regrow lost limbs to some extent, it is a painful and long process and depending on the severity of the wound she might be rendered vulnerable for quite a long period of time, her body is also quite resistant to rot and infections.	NourishmentAs a carnivore her diet is mostly based on meat, even if she can eat other kinds of food it can be harmful in the long term, while hunting, her usual game ranges from small rodents to larger mammals and other predators.	StrengthHer strength broadly exceeds what one could expect by her looks, easily comparable to a orc.

PouchDhessa is not too fond of carrying too much around when she's moving, only a big pouch is what she uses to keep the most essential.
CurrencyDhessa isn't the most wealthy woman but she does have some savings, she's learned that without money life becomes rather difficult in civilized lands.	BandagesJust in case she gets badly injured, usually she doesn't even care for scratches of small wounds.	PoulticesTo take care of infections, but she rarely needs to use them.
WaterskinA big waterskin designed for long trips, around 2 liters capacity.	Natural RemediesShe's really resistant to infections and heals really fast but sickness is something she's quite weak against, her immune system isn't used to common illnesses for those outside the jungle and so she always tries her best to treat any kind of sickness quickly.	Thick BlanketA huge brown thick blanket to keep her bodywarmth in cold weathered places.
