"The wind swirled the snow into icy dervishes, lashing out chill fingers to freeze anything or anyone who dared defy the cold. In it all Niki stood, tracking prey animals, only barely less well equipped for the Arctic than she. Hunter and warrior, protector and provider, this blinding tundra of white and blue so clear and sharp one moment it might hurt your eyes, she moved like a wraith through it."

Niki is a character of mine from the early 2000s, she had been made initially for an RP/RPG and I have always loved her, her story and her partner from it. They had several iterations in other settings, but the first, the barbarian, the northern warrior, proud, strong, and stubborn. :)
 tygurstar did an awesome job on her!
