"If the reaper wants to take me to Hell, he's gonna have to drag my kicking, screaming, biting body down there." Name: Reyna Vaasick Alias(es): The Woman in Silver Heels, the Rift-Runner, The Scavenger Queen Race: Human Female Description (physical): She stands 5'10", looks like in the picture. She's muscular, but not ripped, like a runner might be. Her core is strong, having a nice six pack, and skinnier around the waist to give her an hourglass style figure. Her chest is smaller, probably about a B-cup, her body being fairly curvy for her slimmer athletic stature. The tattoos are on her. Her skin is a bit more tanned.

Her chest can disguise them to look and feel like normal human legs if she so chooses. Arms: Thrallskin Bracers: https://imgur.com/a/vNCJp The dark purple is a brighter red The camo style part is pitch black No arm band Cloak: Cloak of Taniks https://imgur.com/a/uvUEM Note, it doesn't have the actual cape part, more of just a scarf and hood. Bio: "Who was I? Well, to be honest I didn't know that when I was brought back..." Born to a time with VR gaming on the rise, Renya would become popular in it . During her school life she did very good, not enough to be considered a genius but 80's and such were the average. While she was good academically and athletically as well, being a runner. This is one of the many things that would persist through her life. Reyna knew she didn't want a mundane office job though, though her athletics career gave her an advantage in one area. VR gladiator style fights had boomed, taking the world by storm as a new competitive sport. It was designed to make it feel as if the player was actually in the game, weights and such to make it feel like the armour actually covered their body. At 22, Reyna entered her first tournament, and loved the sport. She eventually rose through the ranks, and 5 years later became the Ontario provincial champ, and had competed in several world events. Unfortunately, her career was cut short when she was mugged as killed at the age of 29. "When I was first revived, I remember hearing one thing from my ghost: get ready to run..." When she was first revived as a hunter, she remembered nothing of her old life, only seeing a dead criminal and a M1911 to defend herself with. She grabbed the gun and it's 3 shots, and made her way out of the city of Windsor. She eventually made it to the tower, where she was properly equipped and began learning to be a guardian. She became engrossed in the crucible, loving the competitive nature, and like her previous life, became a bit a celebrity in the crucible to the point where she was taking sponsorships and many guardians knew her name. On a mission to investigate a vex anomaly though, she suffered a similar fate to the now-scientist Asher Mir, his legs being corrupted from the knees down and turned into vex-like prosthetics. Thanks to her fire-team though, she managed to get out. This experience did stall her, though it didn't end her career as a guardian. If anything, it made her more known, the Woman in Silver Heels a nickname she obtained during this time amongst a few of her others. This wouldn't be the experience that truly changed her into what she was today though... "I thought when my legs were changed, that would be what changed me. That was nothing compared to that cave day..." On a raid into a Hive cave system, Reyna and her fire-team were met with a strange sight that she would only ever recount to a few others. None of her fireteam made it out alive, not even Reyna. How would she recount these events to anybody you'd ask? I'm getting there. Her ghost had been nearly destroyed, tucked away In a hidden crevice as her corpse lay there, waiting, waiting to be revived. Eventually though, she was done with waiting. The first account of a hunter pulling themselves back from the brink of death, using Void energy from a Hive ritual to do so. She emerged from a rift, the look of a madwoman on her face as she stabbed and shot her way out from underground. After the time she had been dead, she returned to the tower a changed guardian. She had retained most of her personality, her charm and her humour, but even as a guardian death terrified her, even with her ghost fully functional. The thought that she'd be left like she had been, calling out and hiding from the reaper's grasp. The thought that she would be stuck alone for that long, insanity seeping into her. "But, I've managed through it. I've managed to cope..." Of course, this doesn't talk about her secrets though. While she would avoid using it in the crucible to give her an advantage, after her little death defiance, she took to an item to help relieve her of the panic: Ether. She would utilize it in the field as the Fallen did to improve her abilities: reaction time, durability, cognitive function, and most importantly, inhibit fear with adrenaline. Eventually, the Ether did take hold, as she became a bit addicted to it. Not enough that she couldn't function without it, but she could get a bit shaky if she didn't use it. She was never convicted of its usage, as mentioned she wouldn't use it to gain a unfair advantage in the games, and continues to use it. She continued with other indulgences (nothing illegal) to help stave off the bad memories, some of which had circulated into rumours around the city such as her sleeping with the Reef Queen. "I'm still the same guardian you guys knew. The Rift-Runner, The Scavenger Queen, the same Woman in Silver Heels..." She has a few very memorable crucible matches. The biggest one is where she got the nickname of Rift-Runner: a finals for a Rift tournament, where in the championship match she surpassed the most rift dunks in a single match by 2. Another is The Scavenger Queen, gained from her successes in a lesser known game-mode called scavenge. A number of guardians are dropped into an arena with no weapons, they must find there own and fight with whatever they can find, meant to train versatility. Class and Subclass: Hunter Custom Void (Rift-Runner) Melee: Devouring dagger: Dashing Melee attack that acts like warlock devour, restoring health and allowing health regeneration for a period of time. Special ability: Smoke grenades: carries two smoke grenades that allow her to vanish Roll: Gambler's dodge: dodge near an enemy to recharge your melee Grenades: Deadshot Grenade: A grenade with a small blast radius but a high damage. Explodes on impact, can be thrown fairly far and straight, like a baseball. Applies a minor slow and stagger effect Custom Super: Dead Man's Hand: Upon death, a small rift of Void energy appears. After a few moments, Renya emerges, back from the dead with a significant buff to movement speed and unlimited dash melee for a short time If one was to see her face during this event, one could almost put together a combination of emotions: rage, determination, but the most overwhelming is fear. Sheer terror. Weapons: Kinetic: https://imgur.com/a/6xdcA Cassiod CM6 Celeritas: "Be haste, Be swiftness, Be speed." A blisteringly high rate of fire SMG, with low damage and a 50 round magazine, this gun can chew through low tier enemies, it's high stability makes it a deadly close range weapon. Lightweight frame.

Instruct perk: Path less traveled: Increased movement speed while ADS, and increased precision damage while moving. Exotic perk: The light ahead: Shots over-penetrate targets and leave them weakened (stacks up to three times) A custom made Hand Cannon for Reyna, this 8 round somewhat pistol looking hand Cannon packs a punch. It loads a special power cell into the top, firing arc shots into the target that deal lots of damage. She's deadly accurate with this gun, and it's her go to weapon. Power: https://imgur.com/a/2rm9M Omolon SR4 Apokali "Burn bright in the heat of battle." A custom made Omolon slug shot shotgun, holding 6 rounds of bolt-shot ammunition.
