    Yautja Character Story
    After the long hunt, Serp'xal-Loxzil approaches his bunk door, opening it calmly while hauling his trophy, the beheaded USCM Marine, stripped of his clothing and equipment. The fight took place within a jungle clearing, Serp'xal-Loxzil managed to stalk this marine for well over a day before choosing to take his opportunity and duel the individual after he deemed them worthy of the hunt. His weapon of choice was his beloved combi-stick that feels as an extension of both his body and artistic mind. His mind recalls the fight in vivid detail, the marine drew his knife after being challenged and the intense duel began. Serp'xal-Loxzil managing to land the killing blow after he redirected a knife swing before countering with a deep stab into the preys abdomen, disemboweling them on the spot. He lifted the disemboweled marine over his head, letting some of the blood pour onto him as an offering and show of gratitude to both Paya and Dlex before letting out a roar to complete his accomplishment.

    However the reality of the fight in Serp'xal-Loxzils mind was different to what actually occurred. The honorable duel did indeed occur but Serp'xal-Loxzil was on the backfoot for most of it, he severely underestimated the power of the individual he chose to hunt. So much so that he was clearly losing the fight, getting thrown to the ground multiple times and his very telegraphed combi-stick swings being dodged. The only reason he managed to win and preserve his honor was due to a wild, undisciplined swing toward the individual's head while he was on the floor which caused them to trip while attempting to dodge. Slamming their head on a rock which broke a part of their skull and disoriented them. This gave Serp'xal-Loxzil enough time to stand back up and ready his combi-stick, only for the marine in a daze to fall forward onto the combi-stick, impaling them.

    Serp'xal-Loxzil would place the body next to a strange stand, from an onlookers perspective it would appear to be an easel, with ornate details that are associated with Paya and Dlex. After placing his trophies down, he would bend on one knee, bowing his head down in silence for a moment, giving his prayers to Paya and Dlex for the bounty he had been given. Once completed with the prayer they would stand up, looking toward the easel, and proceeding to sit down in the stool in front of it.

    Serp'xal-Loxzil would examine the blank canvas on the easel, the painters tools next to him, along with a mortar and pestle, than reaching down to his belt, producing the skull of the dead marine, looking over it carefully, giving it a close inspection with his hawkish eyes, and calculated touches from his fingers. He would place it on the table next to him, while then activating his wrist blades, beginning to cut a long line down the abdomen of the corpse next to him, after which he would open up the chest cavity and disconnect the liver from the body; placing it into his pestle and beginning to work it into a fine paste. Serp'xal-Loxzil would then dip a paintbrush into the paste, and begin working on the groundwork of his art, the livers color producing a dark, dirt-like floor on the canvas, he seems to be going into finite detail about the environment, and then beginning to paint a silhouette, his silhouette in the forefront of the painting. His mind is racing, he knows he must get this right after all, he is the only one capable of getting the finite details of his frame put onto canvas. Once completed, he begins to do the same of his prey, obviously over-embellishing the size of his prey, as to make it seem more dangerous than it actually was; a combi-stick to the intestinal tract tends to down most prey in one well placed strike. Although a strike to the head is most effective from his experience, it more often than not damages the trophy that can be recovered.

    Breaking a rib off of the corpse, he begins to powder the bone mixed with the marrow. This mixture ends up producing the color of himself, and they prey. Filling in the silhouette, a growing smile creeps onto his face, the ones only Yautja are capable of achieving. Quick, calculated strokes of his paintbrush fill both silhouettes in no time. Grabbing the heart from the corpse, he squeezes out the blood onto his pallet, and begins to detail the prey being stabbed in the gut with a combi-stick, detailing the entrails spewing forth from the wound, and the blood coming from its maw. Taking strands of the black hair of the corpse, he mixes it with water and pulps it, painting the equipment of the prey, as well as themselves, once more embellishing how equipped this prey was compared to himself.

    After an hour of work, his painting is completed, depicting Serp'xal-Loxzil landing a devastating gut stab into the prey, intestines coming fourth, blood and beauty in its finest. Once completed, he stands up obviously proud of his work, his mind reaffirming him that he is indeed; the best artist of the hunt there ever will be. He knows that his work must continue in the future, before taking both the trophy, and the painting, pinning them on the door of his bunk for all to see.

    Now, onlookers who would approach his door would see an entirely different picture than Serp'xal-Loxzils mind meticulously laid out. The trophy on the door seems to have been cleaned to an appalling degree, showing that the skull of the marine appeared to be somewhat crushed, and still pink with left-over brain matter. The painting on the other hand is an entirely different story, most Yaujta would consider this piece to be a crime against Dlex. The silhouets in the painting are akin to stick figures, plastered with visera of paints from a corpse, chunky, out of proportion and ugly. The details of Serp'xal-Loxzil appear to simply be a stick figure that seems to have the head of a Yautja, while his prey is a stickfigure clad with circular pieces of armor, not detailed in the slightest, with red lines spewing from wherever the abdomen is supposed to be located. Most Yautja would consider this to be work made by the younglings, but not from a supposed master artisan. Nonetheless the Yautja know that if they dare insult the art in front of Serp'xal-Loxzil, they will be challenged to an honor duel. However most Yautja know that they would mop the floor with the blood of Serp'xal-Loxzil, but no one is willing to go for a low enough blow such as him therefore they never fulfill his requests for combat, making him grow more and more bitter to these perceived critics.

    Question time. There are not necessarily definitively right answers for some of these, but there are certainly wrong answers:

    You are hunting a Warrior. You attack this prey when they are isolated and reduce them to half health. A Boiler and Hivelord arrive and begin to bodyblock, such that you cannot reliably land blows. How do you proceed with this hunt?

    You have defeated Specialist John Doe in a hard fought hunt. What do you take as your trophy?

    You are standing next to a hanging, flayed corpse of your own making, when a marine rounds the corner. She approaches you, and begins the fistbump emote. What is your response?

    A pilot officer has snatched your smartdisk and has it somewhere not immediately visible on his person. He is currently assigned to transport, and is cycling his dropship regularly. How will you address this?

    A marine is fighting xenomorphs on the frontline and is wearing a clanmask looted from a Yautja that his squad overwhelmed. What course of action do you take?

    You are fighting a Xenomorph who is hit by the sniper specialist from offscreen. The Xeno falls unconscious, near death. What do you do?

    #1: I would pull back and wait, considering boiler and hivelord falls under un-huntable. I'd continue to however stalk the warrior and wait for a prime opportunity to continue the hunt without outside interference, possibly set up a trap or an ambush to limit their ability to call for backup that would just interfere with the hunt. There's always another time to continue the hunt after all.

    #2: Considering that it was a well fought duel, taking the specialists helmet would be most suitable for my character. Considering they are also a specialist I would give the body back since they are still critical to the round and to maintain the spirit of the whitelist.

    #3: Marine has engaged in LRP behavior meaning according to the honor code they are deemed dishonorable, I'll throw a few punches to dissuade them to leave the area, if they persist then they shall be killed promptly with the combi-stick to get the point across. To maintain the spirit of the whitelist however I would take the corpse of the LRP marine and throw it back toward fellow marines so they can be retrieved. If they comeback further after that and repeat their actions then I will kill them again, but take of their head as they should have picked up the first time to not continue to LRP.

    #4: Make sure that I am not the only Yautja present online, make sure I have the gear tracker working as well. Also use the smartdisk retrieve verb to see if that works. While I am not allowed to disrupt the round in the LZ/FOB and gear retrieval is not allowed in those areas, I would scout and wait until the pilot is present on the Almayer and perform gear extraction up there, waiting until the PO lands the DS and it is on cooldown before moving in, stunning the PO, finding the smart disk on him and then promptly leave trying to avoid causing as much disruption as possible.

    #5: Since the marine is on the frontline I forfeit use of plasma casters, must set my SD to small, and must try to avoid collateral damage as much as possible though it might be unavoidable. I must aslo make sure that the frontline isn't outside of the FOB or Hive. The target is the marine using the clan mask therefore I must focus on them as they are the prime target. Most likely would focus them down until they are in critical condition or dead by striking them at range with the thrown combi-stick making sure I do my best to avoid hitting anyone else and dodge fire, before dragging them out of the scene, retrieving the gear, and then throwing them back to the marines. The other option is simply waiting for the marine to be off the frontline or die, in which I can then retrieve the gear with minimum disruption to the round.

    #6: Pull the xeno away from the firing line of the sniper spec as they are still prey I am actively hunting/engaging the xeno still, therefore I take them to a safe location, let them heal up, and then continue the hunt later on while marking the Sniper Spec as dishonorable and will deal with them in a manor befitting should our paths cross again, but not actively hunt them down.


    Godspeed Dinkle you magnificent bastard o7.

    Solid answers. You seem to understand the spirit of the whitelist well, and the story is quite amusing.

    Notes:
    #1: you may caster-stun un-huntables that obstruct you as long as doing so does not endanger them (e.g. drone near marines.)
    #4: you can perform Almayer-side gear/body retrieval solo.
    #6: the sniper would not be marked as dishonourable, as you were not engaged in an honour duel. You cannot honour-duel xenos.

    Good player and I've never had any bad interactions with him. (Except that one time, I don't know if it was you but I'm pretty sure you or someone with a name similar to you decided to do surgery with engineering tools as a researcher while anesthetizing people randomly) Seen em' on a lot of times and seen him do plenty of jobs. Belive he can handle pressure and do well with the jobs he takes.

    You can take my +1!
