Description: Dark and lean, she is a relatively plain woman. She dresses well, wearing black shirts, loose pants, and blazers most of the time. Her hair is cut close to her head. She has a dull look in her green eyes.

Personality: She is fixated on the number 47. She counts her steps and bites of food to keep in track with it. She seems to be used to being ignored and not questioned about it. She is a bit of a macho woman and will challenge people to random contests of strength and skill, and invite them to random hunting and fishing trip.

History: She was born several months after her mother was called into army service. Ekk liked to wander the woods near her home when she was young, something she still likes to do at least once a week. She never liked modest clothing or shoes, so she would wander the woods barefoot and lightly dressed, and she developed a good sense of balance and learned how to climb and swim well. During her travels, Ekk and her party rested in a cavern that was (unknown to them) infused with powerful dark magic. Upon awakening, Ekk discovered the rest of her party dead, transformed into horrible, mindless undead versions of their former selves. Ekk fled the cavern, stopping for breath at a small pool, and only then realizing her own horrible transformation.
