Denwen the darks skin fire breather

Denwen is a young woman who lived in the desert for the biggest part of her life. Her mother took her there when she was younger, in fear of what people might do when they discovered her powers. Denwen is a Dark Skin, someone who grows a darker shade of skin somewhere on their body which generates excess energy. This energy can be outed in the form of fire. Most Dark Skins have very minor abilities. Like someone with darkened finger tips can do the same things as a slightly boosted lighter in our world. Denwen, on the other hand, is a bit more special.

She has grown Dark Skin on her throat and part of her mouth. This is something that has never been seen before. It allows her to breath fire, similar to the fabled dragons. Because she lives in such a secluded place and isn't seen much by anyone from the outside world, tales spread of an actual dragon living in the desert. Many bounty hunters have sought out this dragon, only to be faced by a little girl, barely a woman. Denwens was dubbed the Desert Dragon. She killed her fair share of people, lets keep it at that.

There is not that much food around where Denwen lives. Because of this she is relatively thin. Her long hikes in the sand have strengthened her legs, making her very agile and fit. She also wields a walking stick, some would call it a bo staff. She wears multiple layers of clothes to shield herself from her sandy environment and she has a piece of cloth covering her Dark Skin. Most of her clothes have turned a golden brown due to the sand, but her mouth cloth is the only thing she actively washes, making the bright red stand out.

Denwen often plays the role of the helpless, clueless girl when engaging fights, which her small posture allows. Once this effect wears off or doesn't work she resorts to using her quickness and staff to land multiple blows on her opponent to gradually whittle them down. If all else fails she falls back on breathing fire, using the extra energy her Dark Skin provides. This is something she doesn't enjoy doing. She feels like her mother's misery and her own secluded life are a thing because of her Dark Skin. In a way she resents her own ability, but relies on it at times of need aswell.
