	Raiya is many things--such as an [[Associates\|Associate]] of [[The Round Table]]--but first and foremost, she is a hunter. She seeks not only to track the creatures she encounters, but to understand them—whether they be beasts, fiends, or, more recently, people.

	Her weapons and armor have long been worn down by her nomadic lifestyle, though she maintains them as best she can. The scale mail she wears is reminiscent of her draconic features and accented with silver reinforcements, while her skirt is made from furs too marked by the passage of time.

	Pragmatic and action-oriented, Raiya is always willing to get the job done, even if the best course of action is the most dangerous one. However, she is far from reckless, knowing all too well that one must be prepared to the utmost before committing to any one plan. She often does not waste words, as she is not one for small talk, having grown up in the wilderness without much practice for carrying conversations.

Raiya is many things--such as an [[Associates\|Associate]] of [[The Round Table]]--but first and foremost, she is a hunter. She seeks not only to track the creatures she encounters, but to understand them—whether they be beasts, fiends, or, more recently, people.
			Of course, she knows large creatures and megafauna better than anything else. Having grown up away from safer lands, in a sandy plain with little more than the necessities needed to make it by, she has been in the thick of survival for as long as she can remember. Monsters and beasts of all sorts roamed her homelands, and as such, she came to know them as neighbors rather than creatures of myth.
	Of course, ~~what~~ she knows ~~best are dragons, having descended from one herself. But she was not raised among them, nor by those who revered them~~. ~~Instead, she grew~~ up ~~on the outskirts of~~ safer lands in a sandy plain, ~~where~~ the ~~boundary between civilization and wilderness was thin, and~~ survival ~~depended on knowing what lay beyond it~~. ~~Even attempting to hunt a dragon is no small feat~~, and ~~doing so alone would surely spell disaster. As~~ such, she ~~turned her focus toward protecting the surrounding wilderness and maintaining its fragile balance in the long-standing wake~~ of ~~the Collapse~~.		However, despite years spent hunting, tracking, and studying the creatures she lived among, Raiya eventually felt she needed a greater purpose—to become a part of the ecosystem, not simply an onlooker. In due time, she set off from her home, wandering for years in search of greater challenges—larger, more dangerous targets that might teach her more through survival than any mentor could. She dedicated her time to becoming a steward of the wilderness, one who would monitor and protect the environment in the long-standing wake of the Collapse.

	~~As Raiya learned~~ and ~~grew~~, she ~~came to know~~ the ~~wilds better than her home settlement~~. In time, she set off on her ~~own~~, wandering for years in search of greater challenges—larger, more dangerous targets that might teach her more through survival than any mentor could.
	After hearing tell of a city thriving in the midst of the apocalypse, Raiya traveled to Onadbyr alongside her dromaeosaur companion, Egg, seeking some measure of stability. She joined the Associates primarily for coin, but also as a means of putting both her and Egg’s skills to use.

	To her surprise, the hatchling was not unlike the creatures she often hunted—a dromaeosaur, small and fragile at first, though quick to grow. She named it, unceremoniously, Egg.

	As Egg grew, so too did her personality. Acting far more like a loyal hound than a wild predator, she remains a constant companion to Raiya both in and out of the field. The two hunt as a pair, moving in tandem and supporting one another as best they can.		As Egg grew, so too did her personality.
