Description: A traditional samurai has one master who they work for, but as Xun is essentially a wandering masterless samurai (rōnin) she sells her services to individuals for short term work before leaving the area.
Profession Perks:
- Intimidating Presence: With he 7 years of study at a dojo as a child and the last 6 years selling herself out as a Samurai to various employers Zun has developed a presence that gets noticed almost instantaneously. They way she does everything seems to be precisely planned, even when it isn't. Most notable is how she uses her eyes to instill fear. As a child she regularly saw eyes that instilled fear in her and since day one of being a hired samurai she has worked on perfecting the same look in her eyes as she had seen as a child. Through all her hard work she is now able to instill fear in most people and hard earned respect in the rest.
- Observation: Since Xun is well versed in combat she has superb observational skills which allow her to assess situations quickly. In doing so she can quickly and easily notice if anything seems out of place or strange such as a shift of hand, slip of the tongue, shifts in body weight, or even simple looks. Through years of experience she has learned to keep her guard up and her blades lose.
- Bluffing: She quickly had to learn to bluff effectively when she first started this little business venture as even with 7 years of training hardly anyone was willing to hire a teenager. It started with bluffing about her age and quickly became useful at bluffing about her skills as well to get a job. After a while she even learned to bluff her confidence and use her bluffing skills in fights, or to prevent fights. Toss in her intimidating presence, her red hair, and year actual skill levels so long as she doesn't misread a situation her bluffing can get her out of or into lots of situations.
