Profile R-274: Delphine "Del" Deegan

Del is a consistent, confident woman who knows what she wants and just how to take it. While she is a foreign human in this strange, magical world, her skills as a hunter and trader come full circle and keep her afloat, surviving just the way she always has. Living off the land.  This does make her stray into the illegal dragon poacher side of things for some underhanded money, but  money is money, and she's not a stranger to the kind made from other's blood. She's just used to it being human. And as far as she's concerned, a deer with a fancy horn is still a deer, even if she has bonded with dragons  herself and knows better. 

She is quite strong, both emotionally and physically, and is often not a person of many words. Once she has a task, she will methodically work through each problem and come out on top eventually, even if it takes many tries. Stubborn, her fortitude on certain things is high. She is a focused, a hard worker with simple pleasures and even simpler living requirements - one of the first things she did when coming to the 'scape is build herself and her partner Winnie a simple hunter's shelter until she'd gotten enough pelts and meat to sell to locals for some sileverence. From that she built a homestead for them. 

Delphine is also not a stranger to the drink,  or gambling, and on the latter she's actually quite good at it. Has a strong pokerface, and can probably drink most folk under the table. Drinking likely became a form of coping with life, but you wouldn't catch  her being phillosophical about it. She's a very straight forward and logical person, not one to lose herself to imaginary causes, as she puts it.  If she could smoke, she probably would as well, but she's yet to find anything close to what she used to get back home, and thats all she likes. So Winnie had to put up with cold turkey sobriety for a while, and he would be the first to tell you that wasn't fun.

Her ambition though can get a bit out of hand, and once she's gotten a foothold in a buisness, she's been known to hold onto her spot and try and climb its ranks in a cut throat, competative manor. Her one weakspot is her partner, who has become something of a found family member in the last few years, Winnie, who she was transported here with. She is sensitive to his needs, his care, and his wellbeing and god forbid anybody try and hurt that man seriously.  She might be persuaded to look the other way to a light beating or two, with a bribe, or the fact she'd had a long damn day and he was being annoying anyway. 

She has started to develop a soft spot for her dragons, though. The ones that have actually bonded with  her usually help her hunt, find food, light the fires, carry heavy logs, and generally understand the world a bit better she's been dumped into. Which is fine by her. She misses her old stables a lot, and has always had a soft spot for horses - whats so different about dragons? All she has to do now, is figure out where to put a saddle...
