Ganzorige Himaa
Avatar of Daichi Tengri, twice risen, beast whisperer and Steppe warrior of the Himaa beneath the shadow of the blue mountain.
A Himaa from the Steppe who was groomed since childhood to become the next Khan, Ganzorige and his twin Genbaatar were always held to high standards be the strongest and the best of their warriors. It was only when their younger sister went missing fleeing mysteriously in the middle of the night to the Western world did he forsake his responsibilities to find her. Leaving Genbaatar to rule the tribe when he is rightful heir was a sting and betrayal to his other half and as Ganzorige would look to leave without question, his twin would mark him with his blade as a reminder to never return.

Scars: A long scar across his lower abdomen where his brother attempted to disembowl him. The rest of his scars are a testament to his endurance and survival in the Steppe, all with a distinct story he remembers fondly.
Tearing the horns from a 'demon' that threatened the village, he grafted them to his head for its supposed powers. Two stubborn scars still remain and thankfully his hair was grown out to hide the bald spots.

Financial status: Poor, but Ganzorige never put much weight in coin. When he truly needs something, he will barter for it.
Vices: Drinking.MISCELLANEOUSBeyond combat prowess, Ganzorige is known for his ability to speak to animals or so he claims. He is always full of energy ready to fight when opportunity strikes and is hard to keep tied down in one place. Naive when it comes to the outside world, in his travels he tries his best to learn. Beyond speaking his native tongue, he would learn some Hingashi and Eorzean, though both at a very mediocre level. Ganzorige can be awfully stubborn and angry when his authority is challenged. A man who was trained to fight and kill lacks the social skills and morality of those in a more adjusted in society.Each kill be it in hunt or combat is sacrificed in the name of Daichi Tengri - blood for the god of war.
Contacts
Genbaatar Himaa
Twins born under the blessing of Nhaama as are many in the Himaa tribe, Gen and Ganz were trained together young. Not only for their trials ahead to take the throne of the Khan, but also to lead their people in victory. The snowy mountains of the Steppe are as unforgiving if not more and the young boys shared a special bond with one another since birth. Each an extension of the other's arm, in combat they are a fury to behold. Though outside of battle Ganz can be fairly lackluster and carefree in his wanderings as Gen plays the more serious and level headed of the two. When Ganz traveled west it felt like Gen's soul was sundered in two always missing a part of himself that made him grow more distant and cruel.
Akhutai & Abigale
The youngest of the family, Akhu was always pampered as a child. Both her brothers doted on her every need as they took the burden of responsibility from her. Born with a weak heart, Akhu secretly loathed the attention and nickname 'princess'. Where the others would run and play, go to war, or conquer opposing tribes, she would be held back. Picking up herbal knowledge and trained under the Himaa's shaman, Akhu would find her place elsewhere in the tribe. But, with the promise of a cure in the west over heard in Reunion, there would be no doubt in her mind she must seek it. Even if she loved her family and her people, this was her best opportunity to be a burden no more.-It would take several years of searching before Ganz would be reunited with his long lost sister. Though he does not understand it, he's under the impression she was possessed by some sort of witch- an irreversible situation where both must coexist as one. If one dies, so does the other. It would take time to adjust to such news and even as he looked for answers none would come. On occasion they still meet up with one another in hopes that Ganz can keep what little part of Akhu still alive.'Cemi' or so this woman with his sister's face claims to be called, has a partner named Abigale he has grown quite fond of. Calling her Little Red the Midlander is prone to indulging his more curious and reckless side enabling his carefree nature and taste for danger. Though there can be an awkward language barrier between them, he already sees her as his sister-in-law. Most of the Himaa are rather xenophobic with rare exceptions, but Ganz is still insistent they visit home. To show his sister still lives and to bring Abigale into their family proper.
Bengara Akiba
When Ganzorige planned to head west to seek his sister, it was then he met Bengara. A woman on the run from her oppressive family, he promised to help get her across the ocean where she could start a new life. They would travel for a time together, constantly on the run from her family though Ganzorige suffered a fresh crippling wound courtesy of his twin. The two looked after one another and bonded through their trials.
Torghul Himaa
A childhood friend he grew up with, Ganz always found Torghul tenacious if not a little misunderstood in her fits of fury. Where most saw an uncontrollable rage, Ganz admired her fighting spirit. They constantly challenged to learn from one another and she was one of those he missed most when he left his tribe behind.Only in recent months have they met once more and it is hard not to think Nhaama set their path to walk together in fate.
Erden Himaa
A warrior he considered his equal, if Gen could not quell Ganz's capricious behavior, Erden could. A fount of knowledge and maturity, where Ganz was an unstoppable force of raw power- Erden looked to refine himself. With Erden's own twin brother taken from him at a young age, he worked twice as hard pushing himself past most warrior's skill. A trait Ganz valued and admired.
