Rachel looks like an ordinary 20-or-so year old girl with
disproportionately
long hair, odd armour, and a rather large sword. However, this facade
of
normality hides the fact that she is in reality, a dragon hunter.
Unlike
most dragon hunters, Rachel picks her targets with care. Instead of
foolishly
targeting the so-called 'good' dragons (gold, silver, etc.) or the
minor
land dragons, she only metes out justice on those dragons who have done
really bad
things such as destroying villages or infringing on village fishing
rights.
Those sorts of things. As such, she is even respected amongst the
dragon
communities.
Rachel prefers travelling light, and usually totes a single
messenger-style bag with her.
A note about her clothes:
Rachel usually wears a necklace of five dragon teeth. These are the
very tiniest baby dragon teeth dragons ever have. When dragons have
teeth
this small, they only have five of them, so that means she has all the
baby teeth of some dragon. She insists that she just picked them up
somewhere
and that she has never killed a baby dragon, which would probably be
illegal. In the dragon hunting
community,
wearing dragon's teeth used to be a sign of how tough you were.
However,
since adult dragon teeth are so heavy, this was quickly found to be
impractical. This is also the reason why she sometimes takes two of the
teeth off. Besides the weight, the clatter they caused could really get
to you, if you wore much armour (which Rachel doesn't to afford more
mobility).
Her clothes are kind of baggy, so she likes to tie strips of blue
cloth
around her elbows, "Just so I can keep track of where my elbows are,"
she
jokes.
Naturally, for fighting dragons, she has a two-handed sword, which
is pretty darn heavy. She can
carry it one-handed for short periods of time. As a result of its
weight, she has very thick gloves. (She's a little concerned about
calluses.) It's an ordinary non-magical two-handed sword, but is
effective.
Her best friend is a guy named Skrag Itrai Petrarch, AKA Skip. Skip
isn't a dragon hunter.
