History
Date of Birth: July 18th, 1988
Home: Ka'a'awa, Oahu, Hawai'i
Family: Kona and Holokai Halaki (parents), Makanui (older brother); Alaula (daughter)
Chrysalis: Personal Tragedy (Oleakeakuna, aka "Keakua", was born into a poor family, but she was always athletic and a good little surfer; however, she had a shark scare in her teens, and suddenly felt empowered enough that she could outswim it to shore and did), 2002
Mentor: Keawe Malana
The Test: Trial by Influence (the burst of Mana drew her grandmother, a Hana elder, who took Keakua under wing and taught her the Menehune ways, having long anticipated this awakening)
Comrades: Maluiaokaneahuikai, Aliikai Konanana, Lokelani Lei, Mikilana Keon
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (for the first couple years, she stayed close to "Nano Ke", honing skills that came natural to her Calling as Kokua and becoming a protector of the village; Nano Ke even brokered her Aumakua totem visionquest, connecting her to Sea Star)
Key Event #2: Awe & Wonder (she also continued to surf and became a competitive surfer, which took her all over the islands, and that was when she encountered Malu; they competed but then fell for each other)
Transition: Shift in Nature (Keakua became partially defined by her love for Malu; their arguments were often heated and even violent, the rocky relationship both helped and hindered by the comings-and-goings of both Kokua, but their love was anchored by the daughter they had together in '05, and they both love Alaula deeply)
Vision
Magnitude: Her Vision swells back over a 100 years and four lifetimes.
Details: Her most memorable life was as a queensguard to Lili'uokalani herself.
Chimera
Master's Surf Board
Appearance: Crafted from the koa (acacia) tree, this traditional alaia surfboard is heavy (90 pounds) and flat, lacking any fins or skegs, and marked only with the same glyphs that cover its owner's sleek Kokua body.
Origin: Inherent
Effects: Reduce all Athletics (surfing) rolls by 1; she can fail Athletics (surfing) rolls (wipe out) but never botch (wipe out with injury) while on this board.
Activation: The board is attuned to Keakua so much that it would simply sink if anyone else, even another Kokua, tried to ride it.
Bunk Styles
Style: Counting Coup
Examples: Run whooping circles around enemy, inflict only superficial injuries on enemy, wrangle a shark, cliff dive
Significant Other
Name: Maluiaokaneahukai, 2004
Nature: Volatile
Malu
Weakness
Comin' Atcha
Keakua is fearless, aggressive, and competitive: pure Kokua. But she's also a mother, so her attitude could endanger her child.
Likelihood of Corruption
Low.
Keakua stays true to the Menehune ways, scorning most ha'ole superficiality.
