Marataika (Marrowtaker)

Marataika (Marrowtaker)
Marataika is an Elana of unknown origin. She served as a Redguard of King of Pain during his lifetime. Her current state seems to greatly enhanced by her infection of the TDC-04 virus. Her soul and her control over it carries enough power to leap between multiple bodies, even long dead ones provided the spine is intact. For this purpose she had The King of Pain create several duplicate bodies for her via Carnicration. The bodies, even well preserved do not last well without a host, causing them to decay at a fast rate. To halt this and keep her vessels safe for long term use, Marataika buries them in peat bogs and mud flats, preserving them though mummification. This is what gives her the trademark "Zombie Dolphin" appearance. Her Elana biology allows her to produce concentrated bursts of high frequency sound. She uses these sounds to deafen, stun, and disable her opponents.

Personality
Marataika is high strung, not uncommon for her race. In combat she is a relentless attacker, using her over-sized claws to inflict terrible wounds. She is endlessly clever, enjoying new ways to strike at and confuse her foes. She is loyal to no one but herself and has betrayed The King Of Pain more than once.....although it is not sure if this was a series of ruses. She is also quite cowardly, running from any fight that might endanger her existence.
