A hunter and tracker.

Baraka's name is a self-inflicted irony; no one around here knows her real name. Baraka is afflicted by a palsy that makes her hands and limbs shake with a slight tremor. Despite this illness, she has enough willpower for three ordinary people. She forces herself through daily exercises to keep strength in her limbs. Most people do not notice her affliction at first, because she is very pretty and charming, tall and athletic, with long curly black hair and green eyes. Even darker than it appears at first, her affliction resemble grand mal but is really a symptom of her body and soul fighting the lycanthropy carried by her blood. On nights of full moon, Baraka turns into a black wolf. The wolf form is perfectly mundane and can be harmed by normal weapons. In this form, Baraka is really a wolf, with a wolf's mind and memories. At dawn, she resumes human form, and all wounds sustained while in wolf form are healed. |
