Nana Hunter

Introduction

Nana is a red-cloaked girl who used to live in the Lupine Forest with her mother. After meeting Jack, however, she winded up growing fond of the farm boy and making the move to live with him and the rest of the Fabled Five in Briar Patch. She has low vision but the cane crafted by the Boar Bros helps her get around just fine. Just...don't wave your hand in front of her face. She will break it.

Personality

Nana comes off as an introverted individual but once you get to know her...she's still pretty introverted. It takes her awhile to actually warm up to people as she's so used to seeing strangers as potential dangers. To her close friends, she's an extremely loyal companion. Nana is extremely reliable and rarely gives up on a task. She's very blunt at times and rarely hesitates to state her opinion. Due to her level-headed thinking, she tends to be a good source of advice on certain subjects. If she is angered in any way, there really isn't much stopping her from reigning hell.

With Jack, Nana feels more comfortable to freely express her softer side. She smiles a lot more and becomes more gentle. However, she also becomes a lot more protective. Typically, people that wrong her boyfriend become very familiar with her teeth and claws.

Skills and Abilities

Nana has low vision. Although her sight is blurry, she can see shapes, colors and differentiate light and dark and people based off a combination of all of the above but nothing is sharp and details are nonexistent. This is why she can sometimes look around and move her eyes to follow people as she can still pick them up, even if they are fuzzy mish mashes of color. It does get more difficult to indentify someone or something the farther away they are. To aid with her sight, Nana has a foldable wooded cane made by the Boar Brothers she can use with picking up some obstacles and changes in and on the ground she may miss. Additionally, her magic mirror can read aloud writing to her.

Due to being half Lupine, Nana has a keen sense of smell, heightened hearing, and quicker reflexes. A punch from her could easily break a jaw, while her own jaws could shatter bone easily with a single bite.

Lupine Abilities

Full Moon
Whenever there is a full moon of any sort, Nana's body automatically shifts into her wereform. This form is much large than her default state.

Lupine Shifting
Being half Lupine, Nana is capable of shifting her body as a defense mechanism. Her already sharpened teeth grow and elongate to the point of stretching her mouth. While like this, they can shred and tear through flesh like butter. One Nana latches on to a target, there's little chance of her letting go. Nana's arms and legs also sprout fur and morph into those of a Lupine to allow her to reach high speeds, aiding in the pursuit of quicker opponents. She can also sprout claws that could chip rocks.

Märchen

The Shield Shroud is an invincible piece of enhanced clothing that was originally given to her by her grandmother and got enchanted by her Märchen. The cloak seemingly grows in size and drapes over her and anyone else nearby, creating a red orb. It can withstand any attack so long as Nana can take the impact without faultering.

Trivia

While Nana has heightened senses, they come from her Lupine genes. And even then, she uses her cane to help her detect where to go. She is prone to headaches and sensory overload more than the average Lupine.
Nana naturally smells like cinnamon apples.
Nana's name comes from her father wishing to name her cinnamon due to her naturally sweet scent and red hair. Her mother of course said no and thus, he tried to improvise. The "Na" of her name basically comes from cinNAmon.
Although Nana is great at making sweets, she's not too big a fan of them herself.
Nana is allergic to silver. Making direct contact with it gives her a light red itchy dry rash. While it's not not life threatening, it's irritating to deal with. Warm milk makes the rash fade away in no time however.
Nana nearly didn't exist due to me struggling so hard on coming up with a design for a Little Red Riding Hood character. On a whim one day, I approached her differently and she stuck. Even then, it took me a while before she became the half-Lupine we know now.
