Bugbears raided the small town of Van on a quiet winter night. One the Bugbears had started a fire during the chaos, causing many of the residents of the village to flee their houses out into the street, one of these people was Hitomi. As she dashed out into the valley, she saw a young boy at the end of the alley who she did not know. Two bugbears were marching down the street toward the child and Hitomi, and she knew if she ran quickly she could escape. She did not flee, instead she ran to the boy and shielded him with her body, throwing up an arm in a futile attempt to block one of the Bugbears' clubs. Then Hitomi waited for the inevetable, but the blow never came. As Hitomi looked up, she saw the Bugbear looking confused as it stared at its now broken club. It appeared that the club had split over Hitomi's arm. The now enraged Bugbear picked up Hitomi by the throat and lifted her up in the air. As she choked and coughed, she desprately clawed at the Bugbear until she connected with a slap across the face. The Bugbear was catapulted across the street and through a brick wall, and his companion fled the alley in a panic. The boy's mother found him and called him to escape with her. Hitomi walked around the town, not knowing what to do until she saw a group of people being chased by bugbears. |

Revision as of 20:17, 15 July 2019
Saint Hitomi, known to her fellow villagers as just "Hitomi", was a childless widow who was honored as a saint after her miracluous display of bravery against a bugbear raid.
Personal life
Saint Hitomi lived in the small village of Van in Vistria during and after the times of the Blood Whip. Her husband had died just one year before the Bugbear attack. She had no children, and seemed to be, if not poor, then lower middle class as she had just a small cottage in her village.
The Plauge
The Blood Whip had ravaged Vistria for many years before the attack, because of the rampant distrust of outsiders trade had ceased. This caused a practice of subsistance farming amoung the populace of Van. This would be a large problem as a certain group of Bugbears also happened not to have an abundance of food...
The Attack
Bugbears raided the small town of Van on a quiet winter night. One the Bugbears had started a fire during the chaos, causing many of the residents of the village to flee their houses out into the street, one of these people was Hitomi. As she dashed out into the valley, she saw a young boy at the end of the alley who she did not know. Two bugbears were marching down the street toward the child and Hitomi, and she knew if she ran quickly she could escape. She did not flee, instead she ran to the boy and shielded him with her body, throwing up an arm in a futile attempt to block one of the Bugbears' clubs. Then Hitomi waited for the inevetable, but the blow never came. As Hitomi looked up, she saw the Bugbear looking confused as it stared at its now broken club. It appeared that the club had split over Hitomi's arm. The now enraged Bugbear picked up Hitomi by the throat and lifted her up in the air. As she choked and coughed, she desprately clawed at the Bugbear until she connected with a slap across the face. The Bugbear was catapulted across the street and through a brick wall, and his companion fled the alley in a panic. The boy's mother found him and called him to escape with her. Hitomi walked around the town, not knowing what to do until she saw a group of people being chased by bugbears.
