Due to her mother's Orc people not accepting the fact she reproduced with a human, she was exiled. However the Humans accepted baby Makana and her mother due to Makana's father being a well respected blacksmith in the town.
Alignment
Born and raised by the ways of the Alliance. Although her mother still passed down Orc customs. She's grown to almost despise Orcs due to them kicking her mother out and also having her race looked down upon by most humans and Alliance in general. Growing up was tough and she feels she doesn't belong on either side but tries her best to fight for good.

General Description
Makana has pale murky green skin, pointed elf like ears, and small tusks. Her golden yellow eyes and dark hair stand out the most contrasting against her skin colour. She is quite busty and not on the slender side. Well muscled thighs, arms and shoulders. However her shoulders aren't broad. Despite being a brute at times, she does like to try and be, "pretty" due to growing up with the Humans, most girls were obsessed with how they looked and she basically wanted to fit in.
MENTALITY
Personality
She gives off the typical "tough guy" vibe. Growing up among people who looked down upon her due to her heritage meant she had to toughen up and fast. As a kid she was a bit of a cry baby. Her mother would say she gets it from her father. But gradually she got sick of how she was being treated and stood up for herself. People started respecting her more once she made the effort to prove she was worth more than how she was being treated. In general now she's build her walls to avoid anything getting to her. She can be seen as selfish at times due to accepting the world is a survival of the fittest. If that means leaving others behind then so be it. But deep down she does care. Despite making decisions for herself, in the end she feels bad for it and it gets to her. If someone were to ask her for change, it would depend on who it is and their condition. Other wise she'll most likely lecture them on working hard for their money and get them to do something in return. If someone insulted her, usually a look is all it takes to scare them off. Persistent drunks or groups the might try to gang up on her are quick to find themselves face flat on the ground under her steel boots. When it comes to getting close to people or any signs of affection she does get embarrassed quite easily. Her father is always treating her like a baby still and is very protective of her. Greeting her with big warm hug. She usually whines and sighs from embarrassment and asks her mother for help. She's still quite sensitive despite her tough exterior and it's easy to get a reaction out of her, despite how hard she tries to play off the "cool, calm, collected" act.

Hobbies/Job
She actually enjoys herbalism, collecting herbs and growing plants is quite relaxing to her. As well as reading and training in different things.
Dreams/Goals
Makana has always thought of one day visiting the Orc people that kicked her and her mother out and proving her strong she is. Showing what they missed out. She wants to challenge their strongest warrior one day and defeat them. But Orc territory is far from hers and will take a long time. Not only is it far, but a lot of Horde land must be crossed to get there. She would need a strong party of people to help her get there.
COMBAT
Class
Warrior
Physical Strengths
Without her weapons and armour she moves at a decent speed but not really a match for someone like a Rogue or Hunter. She can take quite a beating and power through stuns, but her human blood makes it more difficult compared to if she was full orc. If it was a simple brawl, hand to hand, she would most likely take them down quite easily. Her amount of strength carried in one punch is enough to easily splinter wood or crack brick.
Physical Weaknesses
She's quite slow compared to your Rogue or Hunter. Her stamina is still so-so and if someone keeps chipping away at her health and she struggles to lay any hits, she'll be fighting off pure determination alone. She also has mild allergies to fury creatures. So it's possible she might sneeze and get a punch to he face. This doesn't stop her from petting any cat or dog though.
Magic Strengths
Once on dangerously low health, she enters a Berserk mode where she will stop at nothing to destroy her opponent. This increases her speed, damage for a short period of time. However afterwards she will 90% of the time collapse from exhaustion and need immediate medical attention.
Magic Weaknesses
Weak to most magic but especially weak to fire. She can't stand the heat and she's not sure if this is just a personal thing or if it runs in the family. Her mother said that her father struggles in the heat too and that orcs usually dwell in hot climate. So most likely a hereditary.
Weapon Skills
Dual wields one handed weapons such as swords and axes. She prefers axes due to enjoying throwing them like they were darts for fun. If she wanted she could go for a sword and shield or axe and shield. So it's a situational things, in the end she still prefers her two axes. She's quite swift with her axes.
Protection Type
Makana usually wears plated armour like steel, iron etc. Her plate armour has been enchanted slightly by her father to assist with her weakness to magic.
HISTORY
The Story so Far
Makana's father met her mother when they were around Makana's age. Her had been enlisted to make weapons for the royal army back when there was a great war between the humans and orcs. The orcs managed to infiltrate the human base and many died. However when it was her mother that entered the domain of the blacksmith, she was met with quite a challenging opponent. Now, Makana's father was a hopeless flirt. Much to her mother's surprise, he actually flirted with her mid battle. She then questioned him, just to make sure Makana's crazy father was legitimately flirting with the enemy. Which only encourage him to tease her more. Eventually more troops stormed in and her father end up being taken prisoner instead of killed due to his skills in black smithing. The other orcs teased her mother a lot after that and appointed her to be in charge of his prison cell. But one thing lead to another, they got talking, grew closer. Her father actually admired how strong and brave her mother was and fell in love with her.
Once the Alliance managed to ambush the Orc's hide out to free the prisoners, Makana's mother freed her father, only to then have another Human attack her from behind thinking she was about to kill her father. Luckily her father took the blow like the trooper he is, much to the human ally's surprise and Makana's mother.
After many complications, the prisoners ran off, her mother stayed behind, he promised to return and he did. Somehow, the crazy idiot returned, confessing his love to her. Followed by her calling him and idiot. Next minute they got pretty friendly and had Makana. They thought this would help bring the peace, to prove to their people that they're not that different from each other. But no one would listen. Her father managed to convince the humans to let her and her mother stay with them after being exiled and that is where Makana spent most of her life, growing up.
She made a few close friends who accepted her for who she is. Most were different like herself, an Elf, a Dwarf, some others were unnamed species. But they all took pride in their differences together. Only one human around their age at the time wasn't bothered by Makana being an orc, and she helped Makana a lot and taught her the ways of humans. What humans liked and disliked, what was rude and what was polite etc.
Relationships
Never married, not interesting in anyone at the moment. Sometimes she might, check out certain people. Her relationship with her parents is good and she loves them dearly.
