Name: Neg'ugi
Gender: Female
Race: Fungi
Skill: Warrior
Flaw/Fear/Negative: Pyrophobia (Fear of Fire)
She developed it when her Mother sacrificed herself to be burnt at the stake instead of Neg.
As a result she is uneasy around any fire and tries to stay back from it.
Backstory: Neg'ugi was part of the Blue Wood Tribe. A Fungi tribe regarded as one of the most powerful in the Blue Forest. Neg was raised only by her mother as her father was killed in battle. Her mother would always tell her stories about how he was quick as lightning and as strong as a rock. He was one of the best Warriors in the village. The more little Neg heard about him the more she wanted to be more like him. As she grew she was assigned the role of cook. She didn't really like to do it but she put up with it. She would sometimes watch as the men went out to hunt. She would often Daydream of going with them, running through the forest, feeling the wind hitting her face. Unfortunately for Neg, her tribe was not very forward thinking in things like women hunting.
Even if she wasn't allowed to hunt it didn't stop her from practising in secret. She taught her self how to use a sword. Many months had past and she had mentally prepared herself to ask to become a hunter. She walked up too the tribe Chief (while he was giving a speech about how to worship the gods) and demanded that he make her a warrior. He stopped for a moment and started to laugh, he then stopped again and realised she wasn't joking. The Chief
scowled at her and said if she can beat the best warrior in the village then she could become one.
The sun was high in the sky, Neg faced her opponent the strongest and biggest Fungi warrior in the village. He was also the Chief's son. The whole tribe gathered to watch the fight. Neg's mother was in the coward she looked worried. Neg ready her weapon waiting for the right moment to strike. The Gong rang and the fight started. Neg and her opponent dashed towards each other,their weapons held tight . They met in the middle with a clash of steel. The fight only lasted an hour, but man was it vicious. Neg had sustained some cuts to the face and there was Fungi blood everywhere. The chief's son was lying on the ground exhausted. The Gong rang again and the fight was over, Neg had won.
The exhausted warrior was removed from the battlefield, he would live but he was shamed. The chief was shocked and angry. Neg looked at him and smirked, her dream was finally going to be a reality or so she thought. The Chief in rage of his son being dishonoured ordered Neg to be killed. In seconds Neg was being held. Neg was furious and was struggling to get free. Out from the crowd a voice shouted NO. Everyone looked where the voice came from, it was Neg's mother. "Take me instead" she said. Neg was in horror and struggled even more. The Chief pondered this and agreed, but Neg would still have to leave the village. Her mother went up to her, and gave her words of comfort. The men let go of Neg and grabbed her mother. Her mother also said that her father would be so proud. Neg began to tear up.
As Neg got far enough away from the village she looked back and saw a fire being made. Neg knew that fire was for her mother and it deeply disturbed her. She cursed her village and went off to find a new village. One that would need a Warrior.
