Nyra Ashfang
898
180 [] Introduction []
Long before Nyra was born, the world belonged to two colossal alliances of anthro nations. Their war lasted decades, each side awakening increasingly devastating relics from a forgotten age. The final weapon—known only in surviving legends as The Sundering—did not grant victory to either alliance. Instead, it shattered civilization itself. Cities were consumed by fire, forests reclaimed highways and towers, and the survivors abandoned technology in favor of whatever the land would allow them to keep. Centuries later, Nyra was born beneath the cracked skeleton of a fallen skyscraper that serves as the Ashfang Tribe’s ancestral hall. Her father, Chief Ragnar Ashfang, taught that the ruins were not relics to be exploited but graves to be respected. While other tribes scavenged deeper into abandoned cities searching for lost machines, the Ashfang guarded their territory fiercely, believing the old world destroyed itself through greed and arrogance. From childhood, Nyra learned to hunt, track, negotiate, and fight with a reclaimed steel spear forged from ancient construction steel—a reminder that even the bones of civilization could protect life instead of ending it.
Unlike many warriors of her tribe, Nyra possesses an insatiable curiosity about the forgotten world. She quietly explores vine-covered train stations, collapsed museums, and silent laboratories hidden beneath roots and moss, collecting fragments of history that others dismiss as cursed. Rather than seeing humanity’s ruins as symbols of failure alone, she believes they are warnings—and lessons. This has earned her both admiration and suspicion, for some elders fear knowledge of the old world is the first step toward repeating its mistakes.
