Meet Shiva! A rather strange and unique creature from a equally strange forest that she calls home. Fear not dear wanderer, you have very little of her to fear! Shiva is a most gentle soul! Oh I'm certain you've heard the stories about her, of how "the forest is cursed with her undead presence!" or how she's "a demon walking the living world"! I assure you, those spreading such false tales of fear are of more danger to you that Shiva is! Of course, it is still quite unwise to enter her forest alone or at night. Bears, leopards, boar, all those and more call it home. And Shiva certainly isn't its only monster...
And then there is the forest itself! Many find it difficult just to enter, as the forest itself actively creates and shifts pathways at a whim to lead those who wander into it right back to where they entered! Or sometimes even spit them back out at a random location a few seconds after entering! Only Shiva herself seems to truly know how to travel its every corner without issue, and given she has never once been seen outside of its reaches, a few even believe that it might just be part of her! Yet for those who do manage to somehow find a way through the forest for whatever reasons they may have, Shiva's first instinct is not to hurt or even hunt! Instead it is to simply aid them. Multiple teens and children who have gotten lost have told stories of Shiva helping them find their way back home or protecting them from far worse fates like bear mauling's. Some even speak of being taken right to her den to shelter on stormy nights as she tries to comfort and aid where she can.
Alas, not every soul she meets is as kind as her own. The white and orange markings she bears are not fur like the black of her coat, but instead are a protective natural grown armor for Shiva to protect herself with! Hard enough to shatter rock and make point blank gunfire harmlessly bounce off, and claws capable of cleaving trees and beasts apart with a single effortless swipe! At least if any stories of her are to be believed from the younglings that speak of their travels. Many a hunter who ventures into those woods doubts she exists at all, while travelers insist that she does.
What secrets could this strange little forest spirit hide? Only those who meet her know...
so tell me dear traveler, what brings you here, to the forest's edge under my golden gaze~?
