Details
Likes
- Animals: Korinn has always had a deep fondness for animals of all kinds, even since she was very young. She's got a bit of a knack for interacting with them too, and is often able to understand and communicate with them on a level that many others cannot.
- Butterflies: Although Korinn adores all animals, she has a special appreciation for butterflies. They're just so beautiful! Being someone of her large and strong stature, she learned at a young age how to be gentle with these delicate creatures. Each one is so unique!
- Helping others: Feeling that her abilities and strengths are best put to use when they can help someone who is in need, Korinn is always willing to lend a helping hand. She will go above and beyond to aid anyone who may need it, even if that person is a total stranger.
- Wrestling: Wrestling is Korinn's favorite sporting event! A perfect combination of skill and strength, Korinn shines brightest when she's in the ring. Although partner wrestling is also fun, she really prefers one-on-one matches where she can go all out and have a great time.
Dislikes
- Mean people: Bullies have always been one of Korinn's biggest pet peeves. She's never understood why some people feel the need to pick on others, especially on those who can't defend themselves. Korinn has no trouble standing up for others who need it, but standing up for herself is an entirely different story.
- Poor sports: If there's one thing that takes the fun out of sports, it's people with a bad attitude. Whether it be cheating, gloating, or just being an overall jerk, Korinn adamantly believes that athletics are much less enjoyable when other competitors don't display any sportsmanship.
- Scary things: She may look big and tough, but don't let that fool you — Korinn is actually quite jumpy. She's never been a fan of "scary stuff" like ghosts, vampires, and zombies, so it's a good thing that all that stuff is just a myth... right?
- Wasps: The one animal that she doesn't like, Korinn's disdain for these insects first began when she was stung in the face by one as a hatchling. It didn't cause any lasting injury, but left enough of a bad impression on her that she avoided them from then on. If someone were to ask, Korinn's family would spare no detail on how the young dragonborn's snout swelled up like a balloon, much to her extreme embarassment.
Personality
Anxious
Nearly every waking moment of Korinn's is spent being riddled with anxiety. This uncharacteristically skittish barbarian seems to be one of the most nervous, jumpy, and high-strung people around. If you want to catch the dragonborn in a rare moment of self-assuredness, you should look for her in the wrestling ring.
Gentle
Korinn is incredibly strong, and has all of the muscles to prove it — but she's still one of the most gentle creatures you'll ever meet. She's never one for needless violence, and handles all of the creatures she meets with great care and delicacy. It's incredibly seldom that Korinn is brutal or vicious toward anyone; that is, unless, you're the unfortunate soul that decides to hurt her friends.
Insecure
It's definitely a little odd for a professional athlete like herself to display literally zero confidence, but Korinn tends to differ from most. Even though she possesses the skills of a hardened professional, she doesn't have anywhere near the amount of faith in herself that someone with her abilities should. Korinn is normally very unsure, tripping over her words and not giving herself credit where credit is due.
Loyal
Once Korinn considers someone to be her friend, they basically have a bodyguard for life. She's not one for unnecessary violence, but she will jump without hesitation to protect the people she loves. Korinn will fiercely defend her friends and family until the very end... even if she gets hurt in the process. The safety and wellbeing of those she cares about is her number one priority, always.
Modest
Although her athletic prowess is one to be reckoned with, Korinn is never one to brag. Everyone has a different skill level, and she respects each and every person she competes with — no one wants to be boasted to. Besides, no matter how good you are at something, there will always be someone out there who is better than you.
Timid
Outside of the sporting arena, Korinn dons an entirely different personality. She's much more withdrawn and reserved than her athletic persona, and instead appears meek, softspoken, and even cowardly. She tends not to speak unless spoken to first, and keeps out of the spotlight as much as possible, not wanting to impose.
Appearance
Description
Korinn is a female, adult gem dragonborn with a tall stature and muscular build. She has purple scales covering her entire body, and sharp, pointed horns made of amethyst. Unlike most other dragonborn, she has a long, powerful tail which is crested with amethyst shards. Her eyes have yellow sclera with light blue irises, and eyelashes that are similar to a cat-eye eyeliner style. Underneath both of her eyes are three small, diamond-shaped amethyst crystals.
Outfit
Korinn's typical attire consists of a cropped athletic purple tank top, with pink straps embellished with a small purple gem on each side. She wears dark purple leggings with hip and knee pads and a purple belt with a silver buckle. She dons athletic tape around both arms, spanning from her knuckles to below her elbows, and she wears pink leather bracers on her feet. Around her neck is a necklace with a silver chain and a pendant made from a sapphire in the shape of a butterfly.
Design Notes
- Her horns, tail spikes, and claws all shimmer like gemstones due to being made out of amethyst.
- Korinn is flat-chested — she has chest muscle but no actual breasts.
- Much like a cat, Korinn's pupils dialate and shrink depending on emotion.
Moodboard
Relationships
Fearmonger
[ party member ]
Fearmonger and Korinn didn't exactly meet on the best of terms, and so far, the tiefling seems to have absolutely no interest in improving their awkward relationship. The two are almost complete opposites; with Fear being rude, hasty, and violent, and Korinn being timid, hesitant, and withdrawn. Fearmonger honestly scares Korinn quite a bit, but she's still willing to lend the brash fighter a helping hand if she would ever admit to needing it.
Miach
[ party member ]
Although she was intially incredibly offput by the looming, masked goliath, Korinn has come to be a little more at ease around Miach in the short time that they've known each other. He may look scary, but he's been nothing but kind to the cowardly barbarian, even if they're a little forthright. She respects them, and sees how much he cares for their other party members — even if things between him and the other masked member of their group are a little tense.
Piper
[ party member ]
Energetic, optimistic, and easily excitable, Piper and Korinn differ in many ways. However, the young tabaxi has quickly become a friend to the amethyst dragonborn, and she already cares for him deeply. She values his opinion and greatly worries for his safety, even if they've only known each other for a little over a day. He's a little reckless, but is kind and friendly to everyone he meets. Korinn is more than happy to look out for someone like that.
Ronan
[ party member ]
In all of the different places she's been to, Korinn has never met someone quite like Ronan. She finds him to be mysterious and intriguing, and she'd honestly like to know more about the firbolg, but she's far too shy to ask him any personal questions. She appreciates his logical mind and level head, and holds a great amount of respect for the kindness that he shows to animals. He's still a bit of a distant curiousity to her, but Korinn thinks that maybe she and him could be friends, if the twilight cleric ever wanted to be.
