Background
The only other female member of the “anti-Gaang Jr.,” Hannon is a hunter from the Southern Water Tribe. The exact nature of her early life is unknown, but what is certain is that she has been killing animals twice her size for quite some time. She is skilled in many traditional weapons, but her preferred method of attack is with a six-foot-long polearm that other cultures usually use against cavalry but is also quite effective for big game. One of her hunting expeditions led her far away from home, which led to her encounter with Ching. Hannon is fine with the life of a pirate, but does not let it distract her from her one true calling of finding dangerous animals and proving that she is more dangerous than them.
Hannon has two main modes of attack: if she wants to finish her prey quickly and from a good distance, she wields her polearm in broad, slicing sweeps. But when close combat is preferable, she uses a large, serrated knife or a hand-held club to make quick strikes. While normally quiet, she often utters chilling battle cries when making the first attack or when things get particularly intense.
Relationships
Though no one aboard Ching’s Glory could really be considered a people person, Hannon in particular is a social recluse. Civilization bores her with its formalities and its borders and its codes of conduct. She prefers the law of the wild: eat or be eaten, survival of the fittest. As such, she rarely interacts with her crewmates, and they fear her almost half as much they do Ching (which is still saying something). But even though Hannon has stared down genuine monsters and then worn their skulls on her head, Ching, with her dangerous subtleties and her uncertain threats, is an alien force that genuinely scares the mighty hunter.
Fun Facts
- Hannon’s primary weapon is a Chinese polearm called (among other things) a guandao. In Chinese it is called a yan yue dao (偃月刀) or “reclining moon blade.”
- Hannon acts as the opposite of Yue. Yue loves cute animals, and Hannon loves cute animals for dinner.
