Rocío Parts-the-Water
Overview
Rocío Parts-the-Water is a young Half-Moon who spends most of her time in and around the long border between Mexico and Texas. She hails from a small sept near Big Bend National Park, but seldom resides there long. Rocío is the daughter of an Uktena Ahroun from central Mexico and a Kinfolk father from Texas, and when she Changed at the age of 13, she knew exactly what she wanted to do: Become a Scout and travel for the tribe. In her time, she's been to many septs, spoken with several Fera and even made friends with a few "outsiders," namely some human shamans interested in the magic of her mother's ancient Toltec ancestors. She hopes that the Balaam and the Garou can repair the old rift in their friendship, but she doesn't see it happening soon.
Rocío is a natural at making lasing friends, even if she seems a little crusty on first meeting. For an Uktena, she's remarkably open and talkative, and thus innately gains people's trust. While she usually speaks English in a twangy, folksy manner, she also can converse in fluent Spanish, either formally or in the Mexican vernacular. Rocío enjoys teaching the young, and is considering whether or not it's time to settle down and help lead the sept, rather than being an emissary at large. A recent battle in the Amazon laid her up for weeks and gave her time to think things over more deeply.
The Half-Moon's closest relative is her aged Kinfolk aunt Luisa. The older woman has a knack for telling fortunes, and she has told Rocío that her future "lies in the peace between old foes." The Philodox has no idea if this means she should help negotiations between the Fera and the Garou, the Pure Ones and the Wyrmcomers or something else entirely.
Rocío appears to be about 30 years old, and has a rangy, well-muscled body. Her dark hair has red highlights and hangs about shoulder length. Her most prominent feature is her hooked nose; rather than being unattractive, it lends an air of strength to her face, offsetting her large brown eyes. The Half-Moon usually wears casually, loose-fitting cotton clothes and sandals.
