Description

Appearance

Terra/Kotho is a transgender female firbolg, taller than Caduceus, with very long, lanky arms and legs that are muscular and taut. She wears a hide leather hunting outfit and a long bow strap across her shoulders and back. She is older, with a hardness and age to her face. The fur across her body is a blue-grey color, and she has shoulder length white hair like a mop that is cut off and tangled a bit.

Personality

Pono described her as towering and intimidating, but keen of eye, with a sarcastic wit, and ready to throw down if anybody looked at her wrong.

Biography

"Hunted at Sea" (2x100)

Terra was referred to several times by Jaina and Pono as being the hunting master for the village, and their immediate supervisor, who helped guide and organize them to procure meat, destroy the dangerous creatures and denizens of the land, and to give thanks for their bountiful gifts of their own bodies which fed the community.

"Mysteries, Memories, and Music" (2x101)

Terra's hunting party of five, including her right hand man Garrenat, returned to the Vo village near sundown, bearing two dead deinonychuses, which seemed to make Pono and Jaina somewhat disgruntled at being outdone with their displacer beast kill. She greeted the party and was quite interested in what their skills were, saying they could always use muscle on the hunting parties. She seemed more reserved than either Lukash or Viridian, the other two Vo leaders.

"A Fog Lifted" (2x106)

Terra told Fjord she was named Kotho before Vokodo suppressed her memory, and Fjord recognized the name as that of a famous bounty hunter who operated in the Menagerie Coast before disappearing 10 years prior. She explained with professional vagueness that she had been looking for a weapon stolen from her employer when she ended up on Rumblecusp, and expressed her eagerness to get off the island.

"Devoutness and Dicks" (2x107)

Before Kotho left Rumblecusp, Fjord hired her to find Sabian. She said to give her a month, and charged 200 gold as a down payment, with 100 more due upon completion.

"The Tortoise and The Dare" (2x117)

When contacted via Sending, Kotho reported that she had located Sabian on Darktow Isle.

Relationships

Terra was part of the Vo community on Rumblecusp. When her memories were restored, she left the island to pick up her former life as a famous bounty hunter in the Lucidian Ocean area.
