I have read @willowthearts’ Kunoichi fic and so far I LOVE it! It’s a bit more believable and not as OOC with the canon characters as other RC9GN I have seen. I especially love the flashbacks to First Ninja and the First Kuno cause, come on, they are awesome!
And so I thought ‘Man, it would be fun if Joan was in the story.’ although I was stumped considering there already be a Kunoichi, a very badass one at that! Then I thought ‘Why not play into more of the witch part? Joan was a witch after all before everything went to shit.
The Häxa! A version of Joan who went with a more magical theme, one who is mostly the same as the Kunoichi version of herself but relying more on magic than her weapons, which she still uses. As you can see, the hat she wears has a veil that comes down and hides her face, making sure nobody is able to figure out who she is. She still has her knife shoes, war fan and her sickle with her. Her legacy is still the same as before, however, instead of a mask being passed down to different girls, it’s the hat that is passed down.
This is obviously not canon but I imagine the way Häxa would meet First Ninja and First Kuno (Miori) would be when they come across a non-Sorcerer monster who is a tad bit too strong for them to beat. Then, the silhouette of a tall, strong and rather intimidating woman would appear, striking down the beast with ease since that is her whole job. From then on, they would become allies, a bit of reluctance on Häxa’s part. Most of her interactions with the others would be strictly limited to missions until a while passes and she starts to open up.
I tried to give her a '6'8 feet tall priestess with golden eye, don't touch it' kinda vibe if you know what I mean! (Basically, 'fuck around and find out!')
That’s all I have for now! I’ll come up with more stuff about Häxa soon!
