APPEARANCE,
Ruma isn't quite like the rest of the Gerudo physically. She was born with blue eyes instead of the typical golden, and her red hair is more of a violet, although that was of her own choosing. She also never gelled with Gerudo physical training, and considerably weak in comparison to the rest of her race. However, she makes up for it with a considerable intellect and plenty of gadgets she tinkers with.
She's also dismissed the standard Gerudo dress. She wears a yellow tunic with black shorts typically, and her boots are different from the average footwear. She also built herself a helmet, which houses her pirate's stone, a gift from her brother for communication. She wears glasses, another gadget of hers, although they only help with her terrible eyesight.
WEAPONS,
Used for both working and fighting, Ruma carries a hammer with her. Not a warhammer, just a typical workman's hammer. It's a decent bludgeoning object, but if she's in close combat she has bigger problems than what she's fighting with.
She also carries around a pistol, also crafted for her own design. The sucker's small, but it packs a nice punch. Requires 1 action slot to reload in LS.
ITEMS,
In her bag, she carries around enough scrap metal and spare parts to fix half of Hyrule. Not really of course, she just has a fair amount of parts and tools that she keeps with her. Many of her gadgets are large and cumbersome, and therefore kept in the confines of her fortress quarters. Many of them are still in their developmental stages, and the constant small fireworks and explosions you hear are her testing.
Her pirate's stone is built into her helmet, allowing her to communicate with the other pirates when she needs to and allowing her privacy when she doesn't.
ABILITIES,
While she is a brilliant inventor, she also possesses some mastery over the element of fire, helping with her welding and also some defense.
Fireball: This is just a basic fire attack. She forms a ball of fire in her hand and hurls it at a nearby target. It deals moderate fire damage with a 2 post cooldown.
Overheat: Rather than form fire, this ability heats the air around her hands to extreme levels. This can be used to weld objects, and bend them into or out of shape. While this has multiple uses on inanimate objects, it doesn't have quite the same effect on living things. Most of them just feel really hot and in dire need of water, which could make someone feel tired or sluggish but in terms of damage it doesn't do anything. Ruma doesn't feel a thing.
In battle lasts for 3 posts with a 4 post cooldown starting at the end of the ability.
RACIAL ABILITIES,[/color]
The Gerudo don’t just train to be good warriors; they’re naturally good at it. All Gerudo are faster and more agile than the other races when it comes to precision combat, and their reaction times are generally faster. These abilities are passively in place, and also allow for two additional combat techniques:
Dodge: Completely avoid one physical or magical attack without moving in or out of range. Three post cooldown.
Beguile: Amassing the Gerudo’s feminine wiles, the target loses the ability to physically attack (loses one action slot) for two turns. The Gerudo King can also use this ability; he, however, relies on sheer machismo to achieve a similar effect based on intimidation. 4 post cooldown.
(Just imagined Lucca trying to beguile someone XD)
HISTORY,
Ruma was born approximately two years after elder cousin Merik was. While she was in all essence a princess of the Gerudo tribe, she never really felt it. She was criticized for half-assing her martial training as a child, not for a lack of ability, but for a lack of motivation. Before long, she was out of training and spent her days locked away in her quarters tinkering with old broken machinery she had found, even getting some of it to work. It was then that many realized she was a machinist as opposed to a warrior. She was creating her own gadgets as well, developing an efficient form of basic robot as well as improving on the designs of many ships in the fleet.
When the plague that infected many Gerudo swept through the valley, Ruma survived on the basis that her isolation meant the plague never reached her. Even at the young age of 8 she spent much of her time alone. However, it did reach and claim her mother. Even though there was little she could do, Ruma blamed herself for the death of her mother, for she should have been taking of her instead of playing with her toys. She vowed she wasn't going to let that happen a second time.
Years later, when she was 18, she took on a second hobby; learning the ways of magic. It was shown over time that her knack was fire, and that was what she began to develop. While she is still not the best pyromancer in Hyrule she is showing exceptional growth for someone born with no magical talent. Her talents have, of course, come in handy when it comes to welding and working with machinery. To this day, she continues to develop her mechanical skills along with her pyromancy in an effort to help her people and her cousin Merik as much as possible.
EXTRAS,
Her assortment of gadgets is rather limited in use, and many of her advanced ones are still in experimental phases. Her teleporter, airship, and laser cannon all need exceptional amounts of power to run effectively, although with recent findings she believes the key to getting them operational lies with the shards of power.
