[b]Terlin Niugami[/b] [i](Maiden name: Terlin Lockharde)[/i] From her village being put through frequent raids and arson as a young child, to living alone in the wilderness for a year as a kid, to being kidnapped by pseudo-humans and sold into slavery, to leading a brigade of misfit mercenaries before their untimely and universal death, to her planet's falling under the vicious attack of space pirates - Terra's been through it all. She's mastered the use of various weapons in her time, from the traditional swordsmanship to archaic styles of fighting taught to her by her late mentor. Through being tortured, whipped, and worse, she's built her pain threshold to insane levels, rendering her nearly impossible to debilitate through even horrible flesh wounds in battle. She's developed nature-oriented magic in her recent time on Earth, and (given any natural resources) can Macgyver her way out of nearly any situation. Through nature, nurture, training, and living through all manner of hell, Terra's become a borderline natural machine - and few have what it takes to approach her. While her kind could be mistaken for humans at first glance, there are many anatomical differences. Externally, her dark mocha skin is patterned with red-brown markings akin to those of a python or other breed of constrictor. She has peculiar irises made up of flecks and chips of two different colors, as well as an extra set of extra-sharp incisors in her jaw. The grip strength of her joints and jaw is 6,400 pounds per square inch - almost twice that of the known limit for natural creatures - and she has a higher strength to muscle mass ratio; this means that with even minor training, the strength and skill of her muscular system could outweigh even highly trained athletes of the human race. Internally, she has an advanced form of respiratory and cardiovascular system, which allows for quicker oxygenation of blood, faster immune response, quicker reflexes, and more rapid bodily repair. Her digestive tract puts ingested material through an unnaturally strong acid-bath, which makes her nearly immune to toxins, viruses, or bacteria found in raw meat or other things she ingests. She also has a bizarre skeletal system, where her collar bones and hip bones can disconnect from her main skeletal system and sink into her flesh; this allows for her to fit anywhere she can slip her head and one arm. [b]Personality[/b] TRAITS: Kind, loyal, protective, mildly possessive, loving, solemn DISORDERS: Amnestic disorder, episodal atelophobia, cyclothymia, episodal insomnia, nightmare disorder ADDICTIONS: Hot chocolate and making lo- that which shall not be mentioned LIKES: Loved ones, the beach, swimming, carving, tree climbing DISLIKES: People who try to harm her or her loved ones QUIRKS: Technologically "challenged", sometimes behaves like a child While Terra likes to think of herself as a hardened survivor of persecution and war - which she is - she has a vulnerable side, which is seen only by those she trusts wholly. When it comes to facing her adversaries, she is ruthless, and will not stop until the opponent is unable to get up or until they beg for mercy. However, if there is a personal matter involved, she is not often merciful, and can be more vindictive about the way she handles a situation. Whether by her upbringing or simply her nature as a woman, has an inherent maternal instinct that can be seen toward relatives, certain close friends, and children, in which she strives for nothing less than their complete safety and prosperity. She is diligent and determined in all that she does, and the rare times she does give up only occur when her loss of touch with her inner self causes her to have a loss of hope. While she is anything from vigilant to caring and protective in her normal state, the interference of her antithesis, or "yin," causes her to take on an entirely different personality. She becomes driven by solely primal desires, typically in the form of bloodlust, though intensified lust of the body may also be displayed. She loses all traces of maternal or vulnerable behaviors, and often will attack even those she (in a normal state) considers friends or loved ones. This state also lends her heightened physical strength and reflexes, and completely nullifies normal pain response - even in the presence of mortal wounds such as losing a non-circulatory organ or half of her body's blood. This state begins with self-deprecating thoughts as well as thoughts suggestive of an inferiority complex within her brain - as though it were a second person altogether - and accelerates into the physical loss of control later on. It is still unclear what exactly triggers this side of Terra, and it will persist until she regains control of her mind and, consequently, her motor functions. She was married to Niukii Niugami [i](King of Giants, or The Giant King)[/i], not long after her introduction to Earth's solar system.
