Ikka

Ikka is a little bit unnerving, a little bit confusing. She's very formal, very strict to her own guidelines, working by a code she brought with her from the Ruins. She will not hesitate to punish someone for a crime committed, and is quick and brutal with her enemies. At the same time, she is viciously protective of anyone in her care, or so it's said. She's had to display neither trait while here in Wide Sky territory, so no one's really sure of her.

No one in the clan has managed to get close enough to learn anything deeper about her. There's no way to know if she realizes this, or if she cares, or wishes it were different.


In truth, Ikka is cripplingly insecure. She left her previous clan as an adult, but left no connections behind; her family was distant, formal, and uninterested in her, despite her magic. Despite her immense magical power, her ability to use it is negligible, and as her family forced her into military service, she ended up learning a great deal about physical combat. Combat magic was beyond her grasp; it was the only other thing they could actually do with her. It wasn't her preferred life path, but she wasn't given a choice. Later on, when a new clan sprang to power in the Plateau, they chose her as an ambassador simply because her combat skills were not quite up to par (she was bringing her brigade's averages down), and she was the easiest dragon to get rid of who would still try her best to serve Light elsewhere.

Now, Ikka does her duties as Light ambassador, and is treated well, but still maintains no connections and a false representation of who she is. She's not sure who she would want to be outside of the persona she wears - she's never had a chance to consider it, save for in distant daydreams that she hastily dismissed.


Dawn Brigade 7, #85916, currently on assignment with the Wide Sky clan, Windswept Plateau.



(I may turn her into a veilspun. I just think that would be fun. If so: veil, shell, vibrant, branches)
