DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE LIONESS | SHE HUNTS AND SHE NURTURES; SHE IS THE HEART OF THE PRIDE | TAGGED @vero & @kiawah
| There was true fear in Vero’s voice that went beyond simple devotion. The fear in his tone and in his eyes was far greater than any physical pain—and as he made it impossible for Savannah to work on him she knew that whatever had happened before she and the warriors arrived... it was horrible. The crying and the wails of agony made every hair on her body stand on end as she fought the urge to help those who were too far gone. Her focus was on her friend and her emperor. They had to find him. The minutes felt like hours as she looked over the broken, crushed bodies of the fallen. What on earth compelled them to climb? She couldn’t understand it. She didn’t know what the city of light was, and Vero was far too grief stricken to interrogate.
When the emperor’s voice, faint as it might have been, reached out from the crowd, Savannah’s knees nearly buckled with relief. Kiawah was their leader and though Vero would be incredible in his place, Kiawah’s survival was for the good of all their people. Though, even as Sav smiled and let out a weak breath of relief for her friend’s survival—the look in his eyes when he caught Vero’s desperate gaze was one that she’d never quite seen in such a light. She couldn’t make sense of it before Vero embraced him so intimately, without any hesitation. The emotion flooding from Kiawah made her heart clench and in that moment she was so.... so happy that he had Vero. The nature of it... was something that she never would have assumed, but in no way did she judge or find the exchange inappropriate. She knew they were close but... This was beyond devotion.
When they pulled from each other, Savannah found herself swallowing hard and wiping away her own tears of both relief and fear. It was... it was an impossible situation and the fact that Kiawah was alive meant everything. Vero would let her save him—the emperor would have the ability to make him. Sav never had a chance. “Vero—Vero you’re losing too much blood. The wounds from the... pikes they,” he had to know he was bleeding so profusely. Kiawah needed medical attention but what he really needed was to rest. The way his breath came; tight in his throat and the cuts and scrapes on his hands told her everything she needed to know. Whatever haunting influence compelled the others to climb did the same to Kiawah. “Both of you—sit down,” she said a little harshly. She spoke with authority to get Vero’s attention. With his focus completely on the emperor, he seemed to be blind to his own injuries.
She pulled out a bottle of water and gave it to Kiawah to drink from as she tried to guide them towards a stone slab so that they could stay close and Kiawah could rest. “Please—the only way I can help you is if you let me Vero, I promise I will help him. I promise, but we have to take care of you first,” her eyes flashed to the emperor, hoping he would back up her concerns as blood ran through her fingers. “Please... I need to know what happened here,”

DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE LIONESS | SHE HUNTS AND SHE NURTURES; SHE IS THE HEART OF THE PRIDE | TAGGED @vero & @kiawah
| When the Yujleda warriors stormed into Polis with weapons at the ready, Savannah followed. It was a crime to bring weapons into Polis, but they decided that the safety of the Emperor was more important than tradition. They heard screams of pain in the distance and fighting as well... Sav knew that whatever happened, it was wrong, and following orders they went in after their leader. Savannah was prepared to fight, but she could see people climbing the commanders tower as they fought those who stood against them. They were civilians that didn't stop when they were knocked down. There were some who had been mortally injured yet they still came at them as though they felt no pain. It was a terrifying scene when just days before, Polis had been a beautiful city. Then, all at once, those who fought against the Yujleda warriors stopped. Some passed out, others fell in pain while some stared with confusion... they were snapped out of the dream-- whatever monstrous hypnosis that claimed them lifted, and Savannah was able to move in.
Sav looked at faces; searching the crowds of screaming and crying people from all clans. They were clearly tortured... "What madness is this," she whispered to herself as she slipped her sword back into its sheath. She searched the crowd, seeing none of her people as she approached the tower. So many had fallen when the fog was lifted... it was a scene so gory and hostile that even Savannah's stomach clenched and churned. Then... Vero pushed through the crowd and Savannah's eyes widened. "The... the emperor? No..." her voice was soft spoken which was out of character for her as she took his arms in her hands and watched the blood pour from the gnarled wounds. She pulled out a ball of linen bandages so that she could work on stopping the bleeding until she could cauterize them properly. "Vero what happened here? Where--- where did you last see him?" She looked around hesitantly at the mess of dead and dying people... she couldn't help most of them. Vero had to have lost a dangerous amount of blood he needed immediate aid. |

| "Shof op Vero," Savannah chirped playfully as she slid down the dirt hill. Dust kicked up as she walked over to him with her spear in hand. She jammed the butt of it into the dirt and stretched with her arms tight behind her back. His rush and displeasure with the task was a little entertaining to her. She loved hunting. It was something she'd done since she was a child and being able to take a break from the blood and sweat from the wounds of training was a sweet relief. Many of the trainees didn't know real injury. Not that they were weak; they just weren't ready to battle with broken bones like their most seasoned warriors. Mending breaks, scrapes and cuts was getting tedious. One of the younger trainees came to her to patch up his leg after a fall. She'd smacked him across the head when she was done for wasting her time. In a real fight it would have been unacceptable. "Have some fun with it; we can make it a contest."
With her hand wrapped around her spear she pivoted from side to side, thinking up the rules of such a game as she scanned the trees and the dirt for any sign of animal life. "Anything small is worthless," she declared as she caught sight of some rabbit tracks. It would take at least two dozen to feed them all. "Bucks are the goal-- the standard. The biggest wins, but a wild cat kill ends the game." Here, the striped orange felines were bulky and difficult to kill. They would feed everyone, while they would need at least two massive bucks to feed the masses. "Wouldn't want them to starve-" she chimed as she picked up her spear and trotted backwards, eyes on him as she wandered into the thicker brush. "They are having enough trouble with their bumps and bruises. You must love that; we've got some fragile trainees to toughen up." |

| Uzac had been returned to them, unconscious with his eyes roughly pushed into the sockets. They were crushed; deflated with pus and blood dried around the darkened holes. His tears were bloodied and dried against his face while flies burrowed deep into the wounds. He'd been in so much pain that simply rousing from his rest was agony. She'd slipped him a little poppy to ease him back into his slumber but there was nothing she could do for the pain, but keep him under. She'd cleaned the remaining tissue from the gaping holes that were once his eyes and did her best to keep the flies away. If anything good came of his rough trip home, it was that the maggots made quick work of eating away most of the dead tissue. To say she was enraged would be... an understatement at best. She was furious, but her responsibilities as a healer forced her to be calm in a situation that enraged her to her very core.
Ontari was no commander to her. She would never call the Azgeda bitch her Heda. After the cowardly stunt that Lexa had pulled she had enough trouble standing behind her. Unpredictable, undisciplined children with nothing but black blood assuring their roles as rulers over them all. She respected tradition, but her people came first... and right now, Ontari was an enemy who was lucky they didn't storm Polis as Savannah only wished they could do. When Vero stormed in, she didn't even jump. His rage mirrored, if not eclipsed her own... but it was a mutual feeling. She growled under her breath; a feral snarl with her lips curled back over her teeth with frustration.
"He will live," she said calmly as she ran a warm cloth over the dried discharge around his eyes. She covered them with cloth to hide the severity of the wounds. "The healers in Polis did nothing," she spat with anger as she looked up at him. "The only good news I have is that he will live; but it will be a painful recovery... and an even more difficult adjustment." Blindness was useless... but they would find a way... they would give him a purpose. They had to. Ontari did him no favors by keeping him alive... wounding him in such a way was a direct disrespect to Yujleda... "Has the Emperor decided on what we will do in response? The bitch can't go unpunished... She's no true Heda-- she deserves to face justice just as much as the next abusive little brat does." Malice licked ever word she spoke as she rose and took a drink from the strong wine she'd been pouring down his throat whenever he rose. |

| ~ • ~ | Character Basics | ~ • ~ | .:Name:. Savannah Kom Yujleda .:Nick Name:. Van, Sav .:Affiliation:. Yujleda, Broadleaf Clan .:Age:. Twenty-Three | ~ • ~ | Appearance | ~ • ~ | .:Physical Appearance:. Savannah is an average sized woman whos style changes based on the circumstances. As a healer, her life is a priority so that she may help others survive. Because of this she wears thick armor, especially when at war. She has long, wavy blonde hair which she normally lets fall freely around her square shaped face. Her skin is rather tanned from hours in the sun and her eyes are as blue as the dark sea. She does not wear warpaint into battle. Instead, she decorates her weapons with dyed ropes and stones. Her cheeks are rather hollow with very prominent cheekbones. .:Height:. 5'6" .:Portrayed by:. Ellen Hollman | ~ • ~ | Personality | ~ • ~ |
.:Personality:. Savannah is honorable woman who is loyal to her people and protective. Once a warrior, she's learned the art of healing severe wounds. The safety of her people is her priority and she is willing to die for them. With them, she is kindhearted and even at times funny; cracking jokes and jabs at the worst of times. She knows how to have fun, and in the moments of peace within the coalition, she's been able to relax and enjoy herself in her home village by the sea. She enjoys fishing and cooking as well as playing with the village children in the sands. However, if you cross her people, or anyone she cares about, her kindness is quick to turn to violent hostility. .:Special Skills:. She was trained as a warrior until she was eighteen, and has a grip on basic battle strategies. She can handle herself with a sword, but her true talents lay in her quick handiwork healing wounds under pressure. She's an incredible healer in battle and cares very much for her people. Her ability to patch up warriors and aid smaller wounds are her special skills. | ~ • ~ | History | ~ • ~ |
.:Birthplace:. Yujleda Village .:Family:. Savannah's mother is her only surviving family, as her father died at war fighting with Trikru against Azgeda. She's very close to the woman and learned everything that she knows about healing from her. Now, the woman is rather elderly with shaking hands that make her a poor fit to be the village healer. That title has been passed down to her daughter. .:Occupation:. Yujleda Healer .:History:. Savannah was born the only child of a healer and a warrior and was raised to one day follow her fathers footsteps. As she grew, her mother taught her basic medical skills, like how to stitch up a wound or stop bleeding. She even taught her how to use fire to cauterize wounds using real injured warriors. When she was old enough, her father had her sire under him in many fights, but her quick work saving her own people made her skills as a healer much more of an asset than her skills in battle. She still followed her father, but frequently was used as a healer when her mother was unable. When her father died though, she decided to instead learn more from her mother and stopped fighting during a moment of peace. As Savanna's mother grew older, her hands grew unsteady and Savannah started to work with her people more than her mother, the village healer. It didn't take long for people to consider her the primary healer for the village. She would follow warriors into great battles and work to keep the wounded alive to fight another day. It was gruesome work, but she was good at it. She's been doing it for years now and has only gotten better. However, with the new Heda, Ontari attacking and blinding the Yujleda ambassador her faith in the coalition is slipping. To be frank, she's not mourning the death of that Azgeda bitch. | ~ • ~ | Member Info | ~ • ~ | .:Name or Online Alias:. Amber .:How Did You Find Us:.
