FORCE SENSITIVE: Yes
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
+ Force Trained: Artashir training was important but seeing as he would one day wield the Um'Gada in battle, he needed to know how to control the force around him. While the Witch Doctors could provide some form of tutelage it was his mother who taught him how to use the force as a powerful weapon on the battlefield.
+ Fluid Dancer: Besides swordplay, the top past time in Zanji is dancing to the heavy drum rhythm of the Iidrama. Not only has this cultural tidbit raised Wah to rock a beat, but it's also made him extremely acrobatic and light on his feet. This is the case for may Dandu warriors, which is why you can often hear heavy drums when they go to battle.
+ Top Level Artashir: The kids in the Dandu tribe are born with a tail on their backsides and a sword in their hands. From a young age every member is taught and trained in Artashir. Because of Wah's eventual role in the tribe, his practice was taken extremely seriously.
= Zangi: Like all Zangi, Wah has many animalistic traits like enhanced senses and raw strength. On top of that, he can transform parts of his body or his entire being into a large jungle cat called a Lavi.
- Honor Bound: This can be an admirable trait in others but it often leads Wasswa into mortal danger. As a member of the Trimve clan, and leader of the Dendu tribe, he must uphold a strict code of honor. This inadvertently caused him to take his people off their homeworld, be shunned by the rest of the Zanji leaders, and numerous duels even with his own clansmen.
- Flightless: There was little need for any intergalactic travel for the Dandu tribe so Wasswa never bothered to take interest in ships. Now that he finds himself far from his homeworld, this has become a great disadvantage for him. Not only can he not pilot his own ship but he hardly understands how it takes off from the ground. He's completely useless inside a ship in any engineering or operational capacity.
- New Worlds: While the Dandu arn't like their mountain loving counterparts, the Zangi as a whole are known to be isolationists. Wah was lucky enough to learn basic growing up but even then he doesn't get a lot of the subtleties of the language. Furthermore, almost all other culture is lost on him. He does find himself enjoying other people's customs and views but always comes from a place of confusion and superiority.
APPEARANCE:
Black hair, chocolatey skin, and the face of a king. Those are the gifts his mother claims Wah's father left him. His hair and beard are always trimmed, despite hardly running a comb through them in years. His 7 foot height makes him stand out from a darker skinned human but is still a tall, lean, and muscular figure by Zanji standards. His brown eyes always seem to be looking off into the distance or considering the great mysteries of the galaxy which is an intentional to make himself look smarter in front of courtiers.
Transformed into a Lavi, he appears as a massive spotted jungle cat. His fur is dark gold and spotted much like a cheetah's but his coat is far heavier and trimmed with black down the spine to the top of his head.
BIOGRAPHY:
The clans of the Dandu tribe were all in celebration after the birth of Wasswa. After such a long period of uncertainty they would finally have an heir to Timve clan, their defacto leaders for the past three generations. His mother was the clans widowed-Warlord so it came as a great surprise to many when she revealed her pregnancy. At the time she claimed it was Seyja, trickster and fertility god, who had impregnated her and most of her clansmen fell in line. Truthfully, it was a young Sandali warrior she had fallen in love with but could never admit it due to tricky political situation between the two tribes. It was a hard secret to keep but her love for her child and tribe made it easier. For years, as everyone else knew Wah was a true gift from the gods.
Birth is not enough to be declared warlord of the Dandu tribe. Like every Zangi warrior Wasswa was put through his trials. He was young, even for the high chieftain's son, but his upbringing so far had led him to believe anything was achievable. The specifics of the trial were unknown and changed with the seasons but he did know, as heir, he would face it alone. At this point in Wah's life he had been training day in and day out in Artashir, focusing completely to one day over take his mother's position and legacy. Many had began to doubt his true origins and he sought to lay their minds to rest with one single act.
The first part of the trial was ceremonial and brought him to the outskirts of Dandu lands near Sandali territory. Just outside a large cave entrance, his mother along with her personal warband, adorned him in their ancestral markings and handed him his only provisions, five days food and their family's heirloom, the Um'Gada, to light his way. With those in hand he was told the details of his trail.
For the past few years, rumor had spread a white Lavi had been living in the depths of the cave and was the source of many disappearances around the Dandu lands. Normally an entire warband would be dispatched to safely deal with a threat like that. This time only Wah was sent to hunt it. It was seen as a great honor and act of compassion to slay those succumbed to the Sun's Call, and these feelings were only amplified by the fact it would also mark his transition into manhood.
The cave system ran far and long, kilometers deep into the massive Zanji mountains. Even with his hunting and survival skills, it took days to find a proper track to follow. At that point he was already running out of food and by the six day he was eating insects he found hiding in dark crevices along the wall.

Years had passed and at twenty-eight Wah had been crowned high chieftain. The ceremony took place shortly after the death of his mother, short enough for Wasswa to still feel her cool stiff hands clasped inside his own. He doesn't remember the celebrations in the streets, only the look on his mother's face in the end. Every where he seemed reminded of his lost family and for the first time felt the pressure of thousands of lives in his hands. The feeling made his stomach turn and he couldn't bring himself to address the public for many days after.
In his grief emissaries of the Pale Witches made their way to his front door. They claimed to have felt his sadness and knew of a way to make everything better but, as is custom, they would first need a task to be carried out on their behalf. Heartbroken, he told them to name their price and they greedily dug their fingers into him. They made him aware of the galactic situation, the powers far above him that were battling it out in the stars and told him of a place far away called The Deep, along with it's inhabitants that sought to bring it all down.
They promised Wah that he'd see his mother again and all he needed to do was bring his people to the Deep and join in the Wild Hunt. He had no idea what that really entailed but there was never a hunt before he backed down from and with such a reward this would be no different. In the short span of 2-months he arranged the necessary ships and manpower to uproot his entire tribe. Never before had any of them left the planet and now they were all going to live among the stars.
