Raika

Raika was a half-orc barbarian and adventurer of Waterdeep.

Description
Raika wore war paint over her face, and sometimes a helmet. The strong half-orc fought with spears or warhammers, and dressed in barbarian garb, made from creatures of her surroundings, such as snakes and bears.

Possessions
During her time in service of of Laeral Silverhand of Waterdeep in the late 15 century DR, Raika had an arsenal of mundane and magical weapons at her disposal, including the Great Wolf's Fury, the Manticore's Tail, a bulette-claw spear, and a yeti-bone hammer. She wore armor fashioned from the hide and claws of an ancient owlbear which she had once bested, and a headpiece adorned with mementos of that battle. She further carried several magic items, notably a ring of healing, elixirs of defense, a pair of indomitable gloves, and her precious ioun stone of regeneration

History
As a child, the half-orc was abandoned in the Spine of the World. However, she was found and raised by the Wolf Tribe. After growing up under the guidance of her tribe, Raika reached maturity and headed out to other places across Faerûn. Her first great victory came against an ancient and legendary owlbear in Lurkwood, which she slew and then claimed its claws, hide, and skull as pieces of her armor.

At some point during her travels, Raika clashed with a a yuan-ti malison overlord in Chult. She slew the creature twice in the same battle after which the barbarian claimed the yuan-ti's ioun stone of regeneration.

Ultimately, Raika wished to create her own tribe of warriors, which she would lead. Raika believed she had found those worthy enough in Waterdeep.
