CHARACTER
Name: Petra Venj
Canon: Destiny 2
Blurp: angry knife lady.

Using canon language: Petra is the Queen's Wrath, the chief enforcer and right hand of Queen Mara Sov of the Reef, Queen of the Awoken.

The fast and dirty synopsis: The Awoken are blue-skinned near-humans, descended from the crew of an ill-fated ship that was leaving Earth. Shortening the story A LOT, the Awoken returned to the Sol system to help humanity on Earth fight against extinction by alien invaders.

Growing up in the Reef (basically the Asteroid Belt), Petra originally trained to become a Techeun (Tech Witch) but quickly discovered that her talent was in physical combat instead of more mystical pursuits. When the station she grew up on was destroyed, Petra essentially joined the military to get revenge on the ones who had done it. She became skilled in using knives, firearms, and in hand-to-hand fighting. She rose to a command rank, got exiled for a number of years for losing three fireteams in a mission gone badly, was eventually reinstated and returned to find herself promoted to be the Queen's Wrath and head of her special forces.

Petra likes getting her hands dirty, and serving as the Queen's Wrath gives her a purpose, something to focus her anger and pain into for the greater good. She's extremely competent and capable of command posts but greatly prefers fieldwork. She's tenacious, quick-witted, and quick to draw her blade when necessary.

Vessel Type & General ideas: Thinking Token and leaning toward Lightweaver for canon-related irony. (The "space magic" in Destiny is the manipulation of the paracausal forces Light and Darkness. Something that Petra has very little natural skill in, although she does know a few tricks.) But still looking around at the possibilities.

For general ideas, I don't have anything specific. Just happy to see this game and that there's so much interest!
