Gonna wreck some machines.

Name: Zahleezah Zahzorahganz; Techna-Lingua
Age & Sex: 30, Female
Homeworld: Death World
Divination: The Worst Enemies Are Those We Make Ourselves (Gain Enemy/Hatred talent)
Background/Role: Skitarius Ranger
Ordo/Faction/Allegiance: Explorator Team 1st/Mechanicus 2nd/Imperium 3rd

Appearance:
Body Type: Lean - all muscle; no fat other than what is necessary to survive.
Height: 6' 00"
Weight: 160 lbs.
Skin: White - like porcelain
Hair: Gray
Eyes: Cybernetic purple
Notable Marks: Myriad of ritual scars from former life.
Outfit:
Zahleezah's Skiarii war-plate sits on her like a second skin. In many ways, it is; the outer ceramic plates are padded by minute cells which recycle the moisture from her body and create an added layer of protection for her skin. As the armor is meant to be worn potentially for years at a time, Zahleezah is rarely without it. Her legs are good quality bionics, uniform among the Rangers. However, unlike her former cohort, she doesn't wear her red robes of station and she often paints her face and dons outerwear that better suit her environment. One is first drawn to her superbly crafted, advanced bionic eyes. They glow a soft purple and offer her considerable sight advantages over the standard, flawed human. While her eyes are clearly bionics, they have been made to look somewhat more human in appearance.

In the field, she wears her shock of gray, straight hair up and back. Her Galvanic Rifle "Gloria" is never far from her side. The weapon is a relic and her most prized possession. Its hardwood stock has patterns reminiscent of the flowing red dunes of the Holy Land, Mars. She inspects the weapon five times a day, as a ritual to herself and the Machine God who chose her.

Beside her loyally is "Toes-187." He has never given his real name and she has never asked, but the strange Skitarii spotter has been with her for years. He has an oddly large head for such a slight body which is almost entirely cybernetic. The only remaining true-flesh is on his feet, hence his nickname.

Personality:
Unusually personable for someone associated with the Mechanicum - especially the Skitarii. Forthcoming and honest in her views and opinions, but not overly talkative - outgoing and initially difficult to know. She is mission and team focused, and can be a little reckless if the mission calls for it, but extremely professional. She has only ever deviated from the mission if a member of her "list" was present; her list is comprised of a number of Ecclesiarchical figures who she deemed sinful enough to be deserving of the Omnissiah's wrath. Her experiences with them have left a devastating legacy of distrust and vengeance, and she will have her revenge.

Quirks:
She detests the recycled nutrient paste that so many Mechanicus priests seem to love. Real food is one of her biggest vices, and she can get violent if it is denied to her.
She loves Toes, but would never admit it. Their bond reminds her of something far, far in her subconcious she cannot quite remember...

Background:
The death world where she grew up had no name. Its inhabitants had no time to think of such trivial things; the ones who had settled the place were long dead, and the names had died with them. Zahleezah Zahzorahganz was born in a world of only day-to-day survival. Nothing else mattered.

The survivors weren't the only ones on the planet. There were two other groups from what she could infer. One of them - the helpers - sometimes approached them and gave them tools and gear. Their bright red robes always made them easy to spot; she thought it was idiotic. One needed to blend in to survive, but somehow they remained safe during their meetings. The other group - the takers - wore white. Whenever they came, members of the tribe disappeared. The strength of the group meant survival and they were compromising hers. They had to be dealt with.

I am not 100% tied to Yanth. As such, I would like to create a new homeworld to fit my background. The premise is this:
- Death World where the enemy is semi-sentient tech and technology on par with our real life level.
- Ecclesiarchy presence to convert locals and test their own war machines
- Heavy mechanicus presence for ++redacted++ reasons.
- Survivors are hardy, intelligent, with a lot skilled in hacking/security, and obviously good at fucking up machines.

Need to come up with a better role bonus. Maybe similar to Yanth but instead of medicae, change it to Armorer.

Sounds fine to me.

On your equipment ask in your notes; I'm fine with all of it except the haywire grenades, I may be wrong but don't the Mechanicus frown on that type of weapon? That is not to say you can't have a few but they would be hard to re-stock and if known about questions might be asked? - just something to think about.

That's a good point. I am sure it would be looked down upon and she would probably have to jump through some hoops to get them. I am not opposed to that at all; she is also a specialist in killing machines, so acquiring weapons with the haywire quality is a necessity for her. She would sell it as a necessary evil to kill "heretekal machines."

By chance, have you been able to give anymore thought to the weapon special qualities I suggested for Galvanic? Perhaps we can homebrew an entirely new WSQ called "Galvanic" to reflect its "using the targets bodily energy against it."

Taking Armored Tactics & Recon and Stealth. I only have one aptitude of the General/Knowledge. So that should be 400xp with 100xp left over. I will probably spend that 100 on CL Ecclesiarchy to reflect her tumultuous past with the bastards.
