Some people pretend they're good to hide the ugly. Acauna considers those people cowards. Better to wear your ugly on your sleeve and own it.

Twice burned by the legions, Acauna trusts few. A hard knocking, smack-talking engineer-turned-mercenary turned relentless war profiteer. When she isn't building guns, grenades, and gyros, she's busy swearing, drinking, and screwing. To most of the world, that's all she'll ever be. But to a small few? Well... some people use their ugly to hide their good.

This wonderful piece was a surprise from the equally wonderful and supremely talented Wolnir.
