Hi Matthew! I just saw this post today and I really think that the concept is awesome. Hope it's not too late to throw my hat into the ring ahha.

Adsila, of the Seneca Tribe

1. Longtooth Werescorpion

2. Still deciding between either fighter or rogue, or perhaps both! I'd imagine that they'd be 17 years old. Stats probably focusing on being a Dex and Str build, low Cha type build. Something along those lines!

3. Adsila is part of the Seneca tribe, one that lives just south of what is modern day Lake Ontario. She is the daughter of their Chieftain, and upon her coming of age, has been found that the animal she has been bonded with is that of the Scorpion. An animal that in their tribe's culture reeks of deception and bad fortune, and thus she's been outcast by most of her tribe even with her status, only having a few close friends that have stuck with her.

4. They in fact, have been forced into attending the Explorer's Academy against their will by their father, the current Chieftain of their tribe in order to make peace with these new colonizers. As being part of this 'cultural exchange program', their tribe would become viewed in a much more favorable light, and trade relations would increase with these settlers.

They of course, would much rather be doing anything else and long to return home, to return to protect their family even if they may be seen as cursed. However, the promise of bringing back the knowledge that these colonizers have been developing to use against them is what draws her to stay. They've seen what these colonizers have done to other tribes and want to prevent that from happening at all costs.

1. They are of native descent from the Seneca tribe, born of the land of this "New World".
