⭐ Dwei is the sole survivor of her family following mass state-sanctioned violence. She survived thanks to the aid of a friend to her family and while she didn't actively see the deaths of her parents or brother she had seen enough to leave her with nightmares and trauma for years to come. Years later, she got revenge by dispatching the man who helped lead it, as well as four others, before fleeing and living for years in the local woods and jungle. Eventually she did return to society, following learning of the death of that family friend, taking up residence in her home under the guise of being her daughter, opened and began operating the woman's store, and has since then been living among people even if she does barely engage with them outside of work.

⭐ Dwei is a local urban legend in the towns and villages near where she live. With school children often calling her things like Wewe Gombel, a creature or ghost that is rumored to kidnap children in the night, due to slight glimpses here and there that the might catch of her or things like The Hunter due to the people spreading rumors about seeing a figure stalking the dark with a gun. While it was mainly the latter comparisons that followed Dwei in the rumor mill the former began to be heard more and more following the births of Komel and Vardah in which people assumed, from a distance, they were children she had taken. No one knows the figure that a lot of them are scared of is teh woman who currently runs a local general store.

⭐ Dwei is a self-taught marksmen. Learning how to shoot in order to hunt wild pigs and other animals to feed herself while she lived away from civilization.  While her sightlines are rarely that clear she can easily drop targets out to 300 meters or at least she used to be able to before her eye sight began to go. While she can still shoot it is harder for her to see and acquire targets at range however her hands don't have the slightest bit of shake and if she decides that she wants to take a shot and drop what she's aiming at she can and will. 

⭐ Dwei is neutral towards a lot of different countries and even groups and organizations within them. Often thinking them irrelevant or not affecting her personally and thus not needing her to care about it. However she does have mild disdain towards the United States and a particular hatred towards the CIA. Believing they shared records with the Indonesian government following the coup. Records that put her family on their radar and resulted in their eventual deaths. 

⭐ Dwei builds, maintains, mends, makes, or steals about everything she owns. While she does have some money. Following her moving almost entirely off the grid she has since then avoiding doing any business that left a paper trail. This is partially why her store is cash only. Often times if she needs to make or repair something, she will try and study an example of it or something similar in action, and reverse engineer how it works from what she watched. For example, she owns a bike that she rebuilt using discarded spare parts, and learned how those parts interlocked and worked together by studying people riding bikes on her formerly occasional trips into town. 

⭐ Dwei is extremely observant and has a decent memory. While always there it was honed while she was living on her own, her paranoia helping train her mind to look out for anything out of the ordinary. She often uses this as something of a security system. For example, it isn't uncommon for her to put a paper clip or piece of paper in the door jam of her front door when she has to leave for a decent amount of time. Upon her return all she needs to do is glance down towards it to have an idea if the door had been opened. This also means she only has to read a book or watch a movie once to remember it.

⭐ Dwei taught her daughters how to shoot when they were both 13 and 12 respectively, she taught them by taking them to a range that she had made, at something of a hike from their home and trained them until they were about as good a shot as she is. 

⭐ Dwei has a decent collection of movies, both in VHS and DVD form, while she can just watch something once and be fine with never watching it again. The collection was born out of wanting to get nice things to entertain her daughters as they were growing up to simply giving something for her to do and watch when she doesn't have anything that needs doing and just needs to relax. While she does have the means to watch movies digitally she prefers analog over digital. She likes having something tangible she can hold onto. 

⭐ Dwei often leaves gifts for people. If she over hears someone needing a pack of smokes, if she has one on hand, she will leave it just out of sight. If someone's bike chain breaks and she knows it might be a bit of time before they can buy a replacement it isn't uncommon for them to wake up the next morning for one to be on there. Alongside other similar small acts to give back to her community.
