Aurora the Viking Centaur

Aurora is a viking centaur who lives in a far-north snowy seaside settlement, the matriatch of the Borealis Clan, who are all centaurs like her. She has two adult children, but is a widow after her husband fell in battle about a decade ago, and considers herself past her prime. In her glory days she was an unrivaled warrior, skilled with the use of many different kinds of weapons, but she has now mostly retired from active raids.

Body: Standing 7 feet tall, Aurora is an intimidating presence with a muscled physique. Her abs and arms are very well-defined, and her horse half is muscular as well. She has massive breasts even bigger than her head. Her eyes are blue, and she has long gray hair that flows behind her, tied loose in a ponytail to not get in her way. She has eyeshadow and lipstick in a slightly darker shade of gray. As a centaur, she has a human top half and the body of a horse beneath; her horse half has dark brown fur with lighter-colored lower legs and is quite fluffy to deal with her cold native climate. She also has elaborate branching horns similar to a moose or elk that cover a rather large area above her and and deer-like ears. Her tail is the same color as her hair, tied up in a braid in its first half and then hanging loose.

Clothes: Aurora wears deep blue robes covered by fur-trimmed silvery-blue plates of armor across both her human and horse halves, covering most of her fur on the horse half except the ends of her legs, with a window on her human half's abdomen that shows off her abs. Her chest is not covered except for an "armored bikini" top that visibly squishes down her massive breasts, held in place by a leather belt across the middle. She also has a dark blue cape with fur trim on her shoulders, and a white crown resembling ice crystals. Her upper arms are bare and she wears armored gauntlets on her hands. She also has a spellbook strapped to her flank, which she uses for numerous ice, earth, and force-related spells.

Personality: A warrior hardened by decades of survival, Aurora is warm and mature but stern. She is practical and knowledgeable in many survival and wilderness-related topics, but lacks in book smarts. (While she's skilled at magic, she sticks to the small handful of spells she knows and doesn't want to learn more.) She prefers using brute force and her natural strength to overcome problems instead of thinking too hard; for instance, if she needs to warm someone up fast, she may lay on top of them or even remove her top and press them between her breasts. She also has difficulty with tasks requiring subtlety and finesse. She can be stubborn and set in her ways, and doesn't really know how to be "soft", unused to intimacy after being alone for so long. However, she has an affectionate and motherly side that can come out surprisingly easy for those younger and smaller than her, especially now that her own kids have grown up and moved out; she will melt for anyone who treats her with affection, whether as a partner or a mother.

As the clan's matriarch, she handles the everyday affairs of her people, planning events and raids for the others to execute while she oversees, taking a more passive role after decades of raiding. She's their highest authority, and is well-respected by her people, though most of them keep a distance out of deference, so she's somewhat lonely. She thinks humans are interesting in a quaint sort of way; she's secretly curious what it would be like to give one a ride, as a sort of guilty pleasure.
