OVERALL APPEARANCE: Curupira stands at five feet and six inches, with a slightly slimmer body shape. Natural gold eyes and fire red hair which has recently been dyed blond, she has slightly fooler lip and an egg-shaped face. She worn heals for the most part of her life, giving her the extra height boost and often tended to wear more dairing and flashier clothes which haven't been all that possible in the last couple of years due to what she'd been doing. Believed to be human, like all those of her bloodline, Curupira is a mixture of her genetics, having inherited her great great grandmother Rayen's shade of red and the golden hue that belongs to her great grandfather Madoc.
HAWK CHARACTERISTICS: Best to the knowledge of all living Hawks, they are humans from the planet called Dathomir. The most common appearance of the family members has once been dark hair and dark eyes, followed by a pale or fair complexion. Every so often, a family member would come to life baring a trait that seemed uncommon. Such was Rayen Hawk, mother of Satara Hawk with her red hair and green eyes. Or Satara Hawk with the condition of heterochromey where her right eye is blue (after her father) and her left one green (after her mother). With the mating of Satara to the slave Madoc, a new feature was introduced - golden eyes. Which for a few generations, this gene remained dormant until this generation. Ti'Cira, Ahote and Curupira have them whike Áine’ki received the gene of blue eyes (color of eyes which Satara's father and later Arik Kane, mate of Adel'aide brought into the gene pool). Even so, every so often, a unique Hawk feature is introduced, characteristic to one or a couple members of the family, like the hair and eyes of Kytarra Hawk, with the eyes of a Seer and hair silver. The most dominating occurrence appears to be the very fact that the recessive genes seem to come out more and more frequently. Such as the red hair of Rayen Hawk, which Na'ala was born with and which was inherited then by both Ti'Cira and Curupira. Another thing that heavily dominates within the family is their slow aging process and their long life. Another relevant factor in the gene pool is the midi-chlorian levels, or the potential for both Magic and use of the Force, even while Force Sensitivity cannot be confirmed in the mates taken by Witches before Satara, the existence of it has been strong in all the Hawk children for generations and it only appears to become stronger with each generation to come. Their powers are however not determined by neither light or dark and even though the Hawks traditionally, to their best knowledge, hair from the light side of the Force, they have proven themselves to be useful on both sides of the spectrum, especially the latest generation (ie.Ti'Cira, Milan, Rach and Curupira all turning to the darkside at one point in their life). So far, two two rarest traits of the Hawk family have been the heterochromey (after Satara, only Chloe has it) and the gift of visions which so far has been solely dominated by Kytarra Hawk.
FASHION SENSE: Curupira has always loved to dress her age and stand out in the crowd with her fashion sense. However, her style has changed over the years. Her clothes still show her youthful spirit but there are times when she will go for some classy look while others she will find herself in something edgier and crazier because that it how she's grown to be over time. Raised among criminals, with a wealthy guardian, she has gone a long way from the tribal outfits that she wore as a child on Dathomir. With a large collection of various clothes, ranging from dress to pants, skirts, tops, lots of shoes, there is really no telling with Ruu on any given day. While she loves to dress up and look good, she does on occasion like to dress down as well, mostly to annoy others, such as shop keepers in expensive boutiques. But generally, her clothes of the day will reflect her mood and current feel, there is no particular rule.
.:ersonality::.
There is a flaw in the her bloodline, one the Hawks are for the most part unaware of. Though neutral and directed towards the light, there is an underlining darkness dancing inside them all, tempting them in the dead of the night, attempting to consume them. Curupira had heard this call for the first time as she'd watched her Pa'tre be stabbed in the back by a Nightsister, when she had only been four years old. Something cracked inside her in that moment, like a cap on a glass bottle opening, that bottle laying down and slowly spilling the liquid out upon her. Rage, anger, darkness. It had all come out, like a beast bearing its tiny head for a moment in time before she'd been stolen alway. Then came the beating of that tiny little beast, in the years spent in chains and slavery. The demon that lay dormant inside her was always just buying its time and waiting. Curupira Hawk was never meant to be an angel of any kind. This would be solidified on the day Seth Draclau, a madman purchased her at an auction. Still, a young man and yet extremely mentally unstable, he had little understanding on how to raise a child, giving her a childhood most Dathomirians could never imagine. Curupira became Curupira Draclau, unaware of who she was before that, learning from the crazy man and growing up without the unsual conventions of upbringing.ersonality::.Fast forward to her late teens, her fragmented memories had led her to Dathomir and learning she was a Hawk, making her run to the Jedi to meet her big sister. Rather than telling her who she was, she joined the jedi, a group she would never belong truly, where she would be knighted before she would reveal the truth. From then on, she'd met the second madman in her life, who would capture her fractured soul for an eternity and in a true Witch manner, though she had little understanding to what it meant to be a Dathomiri, she claimed Ket Van-Derveld, the scars on her back proof of the unique mutual claiming of the two Sith (that she joined solely because he had asked her to). A whole new adventure began from then on, though Curupira was never a Sith in truth either. She was always somewhere in between, her own madness somewhere in between.
In her early twenties, she had attempted responsability, first in joining the old Confederacy of Independent Systems where she had become the Vicereine of Ryloth and the second-in-command of the Illuminati; second in learning the existance of her future daughter Chloe and Katrine. Though she had tried to remain responsible, her purple haired daughter proving to be a challenge not unlike herself and yet still different, with the clear voices in the girl's mind, the desire for chaos and yet a majurity that fascinated Curupira. When she'd snapped for the first time, two years ago, she'd snapped hard, vanishing from the face of the galaxy, distancing herself from everyone she loved, including her own mate from whom she could never stay away for too long. All alone, she grew dependant of something she had never had much use for - currency. A second attempt at her own responsability had been better conducted and yet, the solitude was getting to her. Curupira began talking to herself to substitute the lack of companionship, having even left her own companion on Dathomir among the rancors when he wasn't one.
Voices grew louder, her mind began to listen to them more intently, her creativity spurring at the most random of things as she opened up a workshop on Kesh to create unique items from the salvaged items she'd collected on her journey. Yet, the voice tempt and call her to the deep core, even as she tries to ignore them in her own self discovery.
RANDOM FACTS ABOUT RUU:
- Allergic to all chocolate
- Has scratched out back from when she claimed her mate (explanation: Witches mark males by scratching their backs to claim them, her mate returned the favor)
(+) Overprotective: Maybe some wouldn't find this a good thing but to Curupira it's one of the most important, just as family and those she deems as close enough to be considered family. She will kill to keep them save.
(+) Dathomirian blood: While Curupira doesn't know too much about this yet, she has a slower aging process which has made some of her family members remain young many decades into their life.
(+) Her anchor: While Curupira didn't realize this for a long time, her mate is is actually her anchor. He is her madness and darkness as much as he is her strength. Next to him, she can be herself without falling too deep into any of those things. At the same time, he's probably the strongest anchor she has at this point to return her from her own darkness or madness when she falls into it.
(+) Mimicking: Early on, Curupira displayed the gift of mimicking things she saw or heard, often capable of late repeating or demonstrating perfectly a little while later. The skill stuck with her later, allowing her to pick up languages and other skills
(+) Languages: Basic Galactic Standard, Bocce, High Galactic, Huttese, Paecean (very little)
(+) A range of other skills: dancing, martial artist, marksmanship, piloting (average), survival skills and sword-ship
(+/-) Witch spells/Witch heritage: Born a Witch, Curupira first began learning spell. Before she could read or write, she spent her time watching her sister Ti'Cira learn from her mother and memorized all the spells that had been taught. Through her own training, still as a child, she performed some of them and learned additional once. Once, Curupira was on her way of being a full-on Witch. However, having been ripped from her home at the mere age of five, she has not only forgotten her language but has blocked most of memories from that time. It caused her to forget most of what she learned. While Ti'Cira has since then taught her some of them again, they are more than a weakness than an actual strength to her and she will only use Witch magic if she absolutely has to, ie. if it's a situation where the Force can't help her.
(+/-) Communication with the Force: For when there was a time when Curupira's relationship with the Force was much different, reminding more of a friend convincing her to do no good, the redhead has lost that connection with it, and was after many years forced to learn to communicate with it in different ways and find herself through the process.
(-) Darkness within: While Curupira has darkside tendencies and is loosely affiliated with the Sith, she is not fully dark in your everyday encounters with her. She likes things dark, she isn't fully aware of the darkness with her. When expressing strong negative feelings, especially when someone she loves is threatened, Curupira can get completely enveloped by her darkness and swallowed up into it. Only knowledge that it could endanger someone she love ones can stop her then.
(-) Pinch of insanity, touch of madness: Curupira was never gong to be right in the head, she was never going to be perfectly sane. But if she had perhaps grown up Dathomir, there would have been some control or at least apparent control of it. Raised by Seth, that insanity with Curupira was completely brought up and nurtured to the level it is at. It's not at its full though it's higher than what it might have been if life had led her differently.
(-) Petite and slim: While Curupira has received training early on from Seth about sword dueling, weapons using and even fighting work out, in truth, she is short and slim, with not much muscle to support her fighting style. The Force is what allows her to utilize her training at all times which brings the idea that if for any reason Curupira's connection to the Force was severed, she would have the muscle memory but not strength or speed to actually use her talents.
(-) Bored Ruu is a Troublesome Ruu: First rule when it comes to Curupira is that she must never be bored, and she gets bored easily. When Curupira gets bored, bad things happen. She will go far and wide to find something to entertain her to get rid of that feeling and usually, it involves firearms, explosives and kinds of other trouble.
(-) Lacks Lightsaber forms knowledge: While Curupira has receieved training in sword dueling from both her mother and Seth, she has never studied with a lightsaber, learned its forms or even built a lightsaber. To this day, she doesn't own the famous force user weapon.
(-) Character Flaws: Absentminded, Addict, Blunt, Bold, Disturbed, Egotistical, Erratic, Fanaticism, Fickle, Fierce, Finicky, Fixation, Hard, Impatient, Impish, Nosey, Obsessive, Overambitious, Overemotional, Overprotective, Overconfident, Overzealous, Perfectionist, Proud, Rake, Rebellious, Reckless, Remorseless, Sarcastic, Smart Ass, Soft-hearted, Spoiled, Stubborn, Tactless, Temperamental, Unpredictable
(-) Disorders: Acute Stress Disorder and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
(-) Phobias: Acrophobia (fear of heights), Apiphobia (fear of bees), Atelophobia (fear of imperfection, Athazagoraphobia (fear of being forgotten), Entomophobia (fear of insects)

.::Historical Data::.
A Child of Dathomir, daughter to Na'ala Hawk, a Singing Mountain Clan healer and Kir D'Arr, Follower of Pallawa. Fourth child to the couple, she was meant to be good, spend her life on the planet of Witches, claim a mate and live the rest of her days there. Destiny had a different plan for her. At the age of five, she witnessed her father's death and murdered the Nightsister that had killed him; she saw her mother dead as well on that day but before she could react she was kidnapped and sold into slavery. In the three years she spent on an unknown planet, with people she didn't know, hearing them speak a language she didn't know, she woke up each night screaming because of nightmares. In time, they appeared less and less before she couldn't remember any of it. Her mind had somehow blocked it out to protect her.
At the age of eight, she was sold to Seth Draclau at an auction and when she refused to leave his side, he took her in. With him, she learned Galactic Basic and a lot of other things. But more than that, he shaped her into the person that she is today. His style, his way of thinking, everything. Curupira accepted as normal. Her memories would return in time though, and they sent her searching and ending up on Dathomir. An elder of her clan, whom she did not know as actually her great grandmother, filled in the blanks she needed which would lead her to the Jedi. There she would finally be united with her eldest sister, learn from her, be knighted and finally tell her who she was. But Destiny would deal her the next card.
Ket Van Derveld, was a Sith she met on Coruscant and to whom she instantly felt drawn. It wasn't long before she claimed him as per the Dathomiri way, before Ryori Holloway and her brother Ahote and then became a Sith, at his request. The change didn't mean all that much to her. The Sith were more liberating in her mind than the Jedi, she could actually be herself and that felt good.
Two years later, she met interesting people, had adventures, nothing really struck out that much. It was a really a girl on Nar Shaddaa that set things in motion, gave her a goal. Curupira didn't quite accept it at first though if thought harder she would know that the girl with one blue and one golden eye was actually her daughter.
Eventually, her childish ways began to die out and Curupira found herself lost in the big vast galaxy. The Force longer spoke to her in hushed tones or suggested new adventures and dangers to thrill her. It had been the first time the redhead felt truly alone in the galaxy. She vanished then, heading out to do a lot of soul searching. Through her time alone she realized she wasn't the same girl she used to be and the darkness no longer sang to to her the way it used to. This discovery led her back to Dathomir, where Satara, woman she now knew was her ancestor, guided her out of the pit she'd fallen into. Curupira still had to make the journey within her alone but with the help of her great great... grandmother, the redhead came to find a better understanding of herself and to finally grow up. Alongside this lesson, she also met another redheaded, her eyes blue as sapphire, much like that of her mate. Soon her head was spinning, as she learned that she didn't just have Chloe in the future but also Katrine, a girl who spoke more nonsense than not. In lucid moments, the girl managed to explain she had a diagnose and prescription drugs which she'd all drank. Trouble was, the only one who could calm her down in those times was Curupira, from the future. So, as the older redhead worked on herself, she also began working on figuring out her teenage daughter in the process.
In time, Curupira came to an understanding with herself of who she was and who she still could be, allowing the birth of her ambition. No longer was she content with just creating mayhem and trouble, she wanted more out of life, she wanted to learn. It was then that her great great aunt Kytarra, in her own cryptic ways, introduced her to the Witchmasters, a group of more action-packed Witches, with whom Curupira eventually joined up with.
Being the mother of two teenage girls, each with their own unique personalities on top of her own with the older vanishing before the younger had arrived with her many set of problems. Katrine had proved a handful, reminding her of herself in some ways and of Ket in other ways. At the same time, Curupira had been dealing with her own issues such as her losing connection to the Force and unable to find herself in the galaxy. So she did something that seemed logical at the time but something she had regretted ever since - she left without a trace, leaving behind her transportation, her communication device and mostly everything, including her confused teenage daughter Kat. Cutting herself from the life she had known, Curupira found herself alone truly for the first time in the vast galaxy, void of luxuries she had been so used to through her life. She found herself traveling, hiding, salvaging items from crashed and abandoned ships, selling them in order to eat and buy clothes. It was absolutely uncharacteristic of an adopted Draclau, mate of Ket Van-Derveld and Dathomiri born girl who absolutely wasn't used to things such as sleeping outside or eating food packets or wearing cheap clothes. Eventually though, she had found herself in the process, enabling herself to work on her powers and spells, to find a balance within her and grow when she couldn't surrounded by everyday ordinary things she was accustomed to. She'd even gone as far as dying her hair blond in the recent months though she hadn't fully figured out why she'd done it. Maybe, she'd figure that out some day. For now, Curupira has to figure out where she fits in the galaxy now. However, what was a means to an end or survival has occupied her time and build something she hadn't quite expected. Having made friends with a few other salvager's, Curupira has learned how to restore items and sell them at higher prices, allowing her to actually making a proper living for the first time in her life.
