Personality

Lacumba is a hunter, and as such she is cunning, quick and deeply involved in her vocation. Like many trolls she possesses some degree of sadistic intent towards her foes, but despite of this she does not care to see animals suffer. Despite the many weeks she spends in the wilderness, alone save for her hunting pet, she values the company of others and will gladly accept the chance to make a friend among her own people. She is however slightly less eager to befriend non-trolls. Blood Elves in particular seems to rub her the wrong way, though she maintains a neutral attitude towards them for the sake of peace within the horde.

History

Lacumba was born a Darkspear and grew up like most of her kind with the same joys and hardships. Though was still a child when the trolls were forced to flee to Durotar, it had an impact on her in regards to how she viewed her place in the world, and that of her tribe. From the teenage years to adulthood she dreamt of little else than becoming a hero to her people, someone for them to look up to and revere. Whether this notion was born from an earnest wish to make the world better for the Darkspear or simply a latent need for praise and recognition is unclear, and ultimately unimportant as it never came to be.

Through circumstances outside of her control, Lacumba was forced to leave the Darkspear behind and find her own way in life far from the relative safety of the world she knew. She travelled far from her homeland and spent nearly a year in the jungles of Stranglethorn perfecting the art of the hunt. She has recently moved on to larger and more dangerous prey than the jungle could offer, seeing each new beast as a an opportunity to challenge herself against the raw animal cunning of nature itself. Though she answers to the call of the horde and honors her peoples obligation to the Warchief she prefers to be her own master, which becomes clearly evident in her aversion towards settling down and involving herself overly much in any regional conflicts that does not involve her directly.
