Zao the wildbeast

Time to introduce some of Onia's friends.

WHO IS SHE?
Zao is a hot-blooded young warrior from Lightning tribe. She is reckless, violent-natured and kind of crazy, and she loves fighting. The stronger the enemies, the more she enjoys the fight. Injuries and pain don't stop her: if anything, they just make her love the fight more. The sight of fresh, warm blood makes her ecstatic and almost completely uncontrollable. Because of this, she is considered dangerous even by her own tribe, and has faced discrimination because of it.

HOW DID SHE BEFRIEND ONIA?
Zao first met Onia as an enemy: she challenged her to a duel and actually managed to drive her to a corner. That is, until Onia decided to stop being too nice and utterly kicked her ass. Realizing that Onia had been holding back the whole fight, the humbled Zao had found someone to chase after and respect. This started her friendship with Onia. She challenges (and loses to) her occassionally, and Onia treats her like an aggressive little sister. After being justifiably wary of her at first, Onia's husband and kids now like her. Surprisingly, Zao has turned out to be pretty good at dealing with children!

FIGHTING STYLE
Zao uses her sharp "claws" (made from tusks of a big jungle beast) to shred, slice and stab her opponents. Due to her reckless and violent personality, Zao usually attacks the enemies head-on and engages them in direct combat. She has extraordinarily strong legs which gives her great running speed and jumping power. She can do impressive leaps and quickly close in on enemies, catching them off-guard.
