Strengths And Weaknesses:
[+]They Grow Up So Fast: Despite being a rather young human, Minna has had years of intensive combat experience, due to pestering her father for intensive training from a young age. She's capable with a blaster, can duke it out with the best of them, and can take a few punches with ease, despite her height.
[+]They Grow Up So Fast: While only being Human, Minna trains non-stop to hone herself. She has impressive strength and agility for one of her size, being nearly Olympian when it comes to athletics and agility.
[+]Powertech: Minna's father always relied on advanced weaponry and tools to get the job done, and his daughter is no different. Minna is well-trained in many strange and unusual weapons unique to bounty hunting, such as flamethrowers, jetpacks, wrist weapons, and heavy armor. Most importantly, she knows how to quickly train with new gear to become proficient in it.
[+]The Force: Self-explanatory. Minna is strong with the Force, and picks up new techniques quickly.
[-]Daddy's Little Girl: The young Balin has Ghorua's name and weight behind her, which comes with all the upsides and downsides.
[-]Child's Play: In the end, Minna is a young woman, who sees the galaxy as a game to be won. She hasn't been exposed to the worst it has to offer yet, and while her competitive spirit hasn't gotten her into trouble yet, it certainly will in the future.
[-]Pobody's Nerfect: Despite her skill, Minna always pushes herself to be better, believing she is never good enough. The smallest mistakes will eat at her, and distract her, whether it be a duel, training, what have you. This lack of trust in herself can be exploited, especially if she is facing down an obviously superior opponent.
[-]Tech-Reliant: Minna had always taken a liking towards technology and weapons of all kinds. This hampers her abilities, as she depends on her equipment and her own muscle far more than her talents in the Force.
Appearance:
On first impressions, Minna isn't much to look at. Falling short of five-and-a-half feet tall by quite a few inches, this little powderkeg of a firebrand makes up for her shorter stature in spunk. Her long dark hair is usually braided with jade beads, that sparkle down her back like green stars, and keep her hair out of her face. Dark chocolate eyes shine enthusiastically from a light tan face. Her body is well-muscled from continuous use, and is rather proud of that fact.
In battle, Minna is a blur of motion and dexterity, having developed her own flowing mix of Teras Kasi and shock-boxing. It's a graceful dance of momentum and power, and can be entertaining to watch. She incorporates quick movements and fast thinking into her bladework and shootouts as well, favoring speed and power over sustainability or finesse.
Biography:
Minna's early life is steeped in mystery.
Not too long ago, a baby was found on the steps of a Commenori Orphanage. The child couldn't have been any more than one year old, wrapped snugly in a food crate, with only a note saying the child's name, a deposit of a hundred credits, and a set of expensive jade hair beads. Her name was Adamina; Minna for short.
The child spent three and a half years at the orphanage. It went by quickly for the young girl, who could barely remember the experience a few years later. There was plenty of love, sure, but Minna remembered feeling lost, and useless. Then she was adopted by the strangest of fathers, with the help of one Lady Kay Larr.
Ghorua the Shark
took her from the orphanage, took her under his wing, and through her, began his healing process. Through him, Minna found her anchor; someone who would always be there for her, and who would protect and lift her up in the coming years. When she discovered what Ghorua did for a living, bounty hunting, she demanded her father to train her, and he obliged.As the years passed, Minna began to learn of her father's trade. Blaster pistols and wrist weaponry became second-nature to her. Ghorua instructed her on how to effectively use jetpacks, flamethrowers, darts, Teräs Käsi, the tricks of the bounty hunter trade. He even gave her a wooden training saber, for practice until she could create her own lightsaber. The Force was never in her training, so she had to improvise her own lessons, and this obviously hampered her growth
Now that she is older, Minna is a competent warrior, with skill in many combat disciplines, a bounty hunter set up from the beginning to succeed. She can only hope to live up to those expectations.
THE ADVENTURE SO FAR:
TBA
Personality:
Due to being the daughter of the Shark, Minna absorbed many of his personality traits. She exudes a larger-than-life presence, and has a love of theatrics that only a Balin could. She's learned to command a room despite her age, having a natural charisma that says "I know what I'm doing". Still, she has her own demons, due to her abandonment. She feels inadequate or unworthy, and tries her best to improve to overcome these self-perceived inadequacies. She will be an incredible person. Some day.
