APPEARANCE & PERSONALITY

Clothing wise, she wears what could loosely be called 'military' style clothing. Olive green tank tops, shorts, and a crap ton of holsters. She claims that her skimpy clothing is because she is used to much colder weather, which she is, but more than one observer has noted that her clothing leaves others a bit hot and bothered.

BACKSTORY & MOTIVATION Born in a rural town in the north of the Quebec Province, Otsana is the middle child of a very large family. Even at a young age, her seemingly boundless pool of ki manifested itself as she out-ran, out-lasted, and out-scrapped her siblings and other children. She easily fit into the the 'wild-child' stereotype that follows her kind; running through the woods barefoot, scaring livestock, and generally raising hell. By the time she reached sixteen years old, her parents had sent her to Saint Christopher's Boarding School in Québec City.
While this was intended to be a punishment, she quite enjoyed herself. She often slipped away from her chaperones to explore the city, often sneaking out to get into the same shenanigans she did back home. However she did manage to do well in her studies and had a knack for avoiding serious consequences. It was here she first developed an attunement to her ki, instinctively developing her ki-sense as she dodged her chaperones. However what did get her enthusiasm the most was the summer trips to her cousins in the States, where she first got to fire guns.
Ultimately, when she did graduate a recruiter managed to convince her to join the army. They made it sound like she'd get paid to do what she liked, which was cause trouble while playing with guns. While this was true, they didn't mention that she'd be expected to work within a command structure. Even being the designated machine-gunner of her squad wasn’t enough to make her stop chafing with her superiors. However it was in the Army where she finally discovered how to use Ki, when during an ambush she instinctively managed to use her ki to keep firing her gun long after the magazine had run out.
Needless to say, the military was quite keen to use her once this manifested. She was convinced to join a special forces unit composed primarily of Ki users. Here she was taught the finer points of blowing things up, smashing faces, and general asskicking while also refining her ki usage.
All things must come to an end, and so did Otsana's term of service. After several years worth of missions, there came a point where it became clear that she just didn't have the temperament to stay much longer.
Barely receiving an honorable discharge, she found herself in high demand as a mercenary. She could be picky with her contracts, and often chose them based on how fun they sounded, like sabotage. These contracts were often broken up with her own activities, which often included robberies. It was these criminal activities that gained her notoriety, though she was careful to cultivate a Robin Hood style image, especially if it helped her escape. Sometimes this means tossing wads of cash behind her to attract a mob to slow down the cops, sometimes it means running away rather than finishing off a popular vigilante, and other times it means evacuating a corrupt official’s office building before blowing it up.
Either way, Otsana has become a globe trotter, eating when it's fun; drinking when it's fun; and fighting when it's fun.
FIGHTING STYLE & ABILITIES
FIGHTING STYLE Otsana carries several guns and explosives. Otsana uses her guns both as melee weapons and as ranged weapons. She switches between dual wielding one handed weapons and using her machine gun. Her only melee weapon is actually a spare barrel for her machine gun, which she can swap out in seconds. If the one currently in the gun has gotten hot from continued firing, she can actually use that hot barrel for a more devastating melee weapon.
Her ki enhances her senses, strength, and durability, letting her use her guns with extreme precision. Additionally she's developed an unusual technique of channeling her Ki through her weapons, putting the 'fire' in 'firearms'. All her shots look like tracer rounds, but are actually miniature fireballs.

WEAKNESSES & LIMITS Because her different attacks require her to switch weapons so often, anyone that can catch her off guard will be at an advantage. Furthermore, several of her two handed attacks use finite resources that she cannot replace during a fight. She doesnt have any notable movement options; even though she does use her grappling hook for an attack, she has no way to quickly reel it in.
Additionally she is prone to excess when indulging, giving an opening for foul play. Finally, as theatrical as she is, she often has difficulty in actually finishing people off.
