Idana Arngeir
Name of Writer: Lissa Target Realm: HS Sex: Female Age: 28 Race: Human / Lycan Height: 5'10 Weight: 140 Voice: alto Hair Color: Blonde Eye Color: Blue Complexion: Glacially Nordic Build: Never has the phrase "brick house" been more appropriate in conjunction with a woman's body. Idana is toned, lean, and muscular without looking like a body-builder. Tattoos/Piercings/Scars/Birthmarks: She has a Marine Corps tattoo on her left bicep. Sexual Preference: Hetero, nominally Fantasy: To live a quiet life selling guns & porn out of her shop, "Arngeir's Guns & Military Surplus," avoiding the full moon fever when she can, and reveling in it when she can't. Strengths: Strong, a crack shot with a wide variety of weapons, quick-witted, generally laid back with a few notable exceptions, incredibly self-confident and self-reliant Weaknesses: Has a temper when provoked, especially if it's around a full moon; a bunker somewhere in Montana is missing its resident conspiracy theorist. Odd Quirks (if applicable): Chainsmokes. Owns three large dogs-- a wolf hybrid named Tex, a German Shepherd named Snake, and a Rottweilor named Baby. She keeps a jar of dog treats on the shelf behind her counter; she gives three to each customer and if they tell her they don't have a dog, she gives them one anyway and tells them to make a stray happy. Personality: Idana is quiet, keeps to herself, and generally passes the time reading magazines, playing with guns, and trying to avoid anything remotely out of the ordinary. She radiates a "can-do" attitude, and is completely self-reliant. She has a bizarre and off-beat sense of morbid humor, is drawn to conspiracy theories ranging from government cover-ups to UFOs, and is probably considered more than a little eccentric by the people in her neighborhood. Hobbies: Taking apart & putting together guns, practicing in her home-made firing range, jogging at least four miles every day with her dogs in tow. Skills: Shooting, hand-to-hand combat, various other military-acquired skills Weapons (if applicable): She owns a gun shop, but her baby is her Israeli-import Desert Eagle .50, which has been heavily modified to suit her. She's also rather fond of her K-Bar. Occupation: Gun shop proprietor. Background History: Idana Arngeir was born and raised a military brat in Arizona. In many ways she's still a product of her desert upbringing, and can seem a little out of the ordinary in Chicago with her snakeskin boots and duster. Of course, she's just as likely to be found in black urban-combat/SWAT fatigues and combat boots. She joined the Marines straight out of High School and planned to make a career out of it. Unfortunately, her unusual genetics (she is a lycan) finally manifested in a high-stress situation in Iraq, and though she managed to keep her true nature from getting out, she was given a mental health discharge. She planned to go back home to Arizona, but agreed to stay in Chicago for a little while with a friend she met in basic training. Strangely enough, she decided she liked the city, and when her buddy was shipped out for another tour, she took out loans to open a business, and now owns and operates "Arngeir's Guns & Military Surplus," a small shop on the outskirts of a bad neighborhood. She plans to make her buddy a full partner in the business when he gets back. In spite of Idana's unorthodox behavior, and the unusual spot she chose for her shop, nobody really messes with her. She is one of those rare people who can live smack between gangbangers and cops and get along with both sets. Idana's shop is also known somewhat colorfully as "Idana's Guns & Porn," because she sells porn magazines on the rack beside the usual Soldier of Fortune and gun catalogues.
