Yautja Character Story “He passed towards the end.”
The sudden clicking of mandibles roused young Tachinde from his inner thoughts, cool air parting way for the experienced warrior that is Nodalke. Nodalke stood there, gear still battered and ki’cti-pa sizzling with the kiande amedha’s ichor; the Hunt of his sibling must have went as poor as they said it would. Tachinde’s eyes narrowed into slits and his immediate attention returned to the corpse still on display waiting to be burnt like the rest. Truly, he isn’t upset that his sibling perished. Moreso that he’ll have to listen to the others click their tusks and disregard it as a common occurrence.
That’s what his line had been seen as, a waste of suckers. Usually falling short of greatness in the Hunt. He was forced to listen to their musings and deal with the weight crushing his shoulders, a weight that would soon reach the breaking point.
Tachinde finally turned from the displayed corpse, no longer wishing to look at the mangled limbs and gaping chest wound where a serpent’s appendage had staked through the other end. He faced the taller warrior who kept his mandibles clicked and head cocked. Unlike the others, Nodalke didn’t dismiss him or put doubt on young Tachinde’s abilities. It certainly was without pity of course. That would be disrespectful and insulting, the neutral demeanour was simply one out of interest. There’s an understanding that the older Hunter has for the Unblooded. A spark recognized as a drive countering any doubts one may have. No, this one is different from the others. He is without the reckless tendencies and ignorance of a bigger picture.
“Unable to follow through with the code.” Tachinde confirmed. Not that it takes an Elder to figure this out. The wave of a hand motioned to the mangled mess that was the left limb, shredded and picked apart by the claws of the serpents. It all must have happened due to a lack of awareness; tackled and ripped apart before the warrior could realize what was happening and activate the fail-safe to ensure an honorable death. That meant Hunters like Nodalke are sent in to recover what remained. The corpse won’t be regarded as anything more than a pity and waste, the Black Warrior himself dismissing and simply trekking past its spirit onto the next soul that passed on from their realm.
Nodalke reached out and placed a hand on the young Yautja’s shoulder, giving him a look that said ‘Don’t dwell. Do not fear a similar fate.’ Actions translate words in their society and that’s exactly what Tachinde read on his clanmate’s expression. “Your time is now. Remember the code, remember what I have taught you and prove them wrong. Then we feast under Kor’Ma’s bolts arcing through the sky.” Nodalke nodded and lowered his hand, Tachinde looking up with a hardened expression. Muscles relaxed but carried with a strong posture. He won’t let the display haunt him, he won’t let the words and tusks clicking echo throughout his mind, and he certainly won’t let Cetanu’s pauking gaze leech into him. No, now he accomplishes what those from his pack have been known to fail at.
The Unblooded moves past the taller warrior who looked with an intrigued and hopeful gaze. Tachinde raises his bio-mask and hooks it in as he travels towards through the halls of the mother-ship, all the way to the preparations room.
Now is the time to prove himself. Failure will NOT be tolerated.
Describe how your Yautja acts, and how you intend to play them Tachinde is a driven, hungry Yautja who seeks approval. My intentions for Tachinde is for him to prove that his lineage is worthy of being called Hunters and Warriors among his clan. Having witnessed failure and being predestined to die like those before him, he seeks to prove himself. That he won't succumb to the risk of the hunt at such an early stage.
I intend to translate Tachinde's personality to gameplay through seeking out dangerous tasks. The more risk the better because that's how Tachinde himself would see it. The prey simply isn't worthy if it doesn't propose an actual challenge.
In your own words, describe the difference between an honor duel and a hunt Honor Duel - An Honor Duel is a battle between Yautja and another adversary that typically ends in death. An Honor Duel is mainly commenced if one's honor is brought into question or if the hunter deems an adversary as a worthy combatant. The Yautja in question MUST be revealed and MUST be utilizing a melee weapon which is typically their wristblades. An Honor Duel is a personal fight between two individuals.
Hunt - A Hunt is more than an endeavor for Yautja to claim glory and honor, it's the backbone of the entire society where unblooded and blooded go to prove their worth. A Hunt is conducted so that Yautja may prove themselves to their clan or simply for the joy of defeating dangerous prey.
How do you intend on interacting with other predators during a round? Due to Tachinde's personality and previous interactions with those of his kind, I wouldn't be one for 'banter' unless absolutely necessary.
Why do you want a predator whitelist? For starters, I'm interested in a different RP experience. I believe playing a Predator will be fun and interesting.
I also want to experience Predator gameplay on CM due to running into several Predator players and seeing how they act.
