Character originally made for a game before the rules/stone count were given. Not wanting him lost to obscurity, thought I'd post him here as a possible character for some later time. Originally built on 20w, 5 Challenges, expanded a bit to the 10 challenge limit.
Nascha is the younger of Navajo twins, Dyami being the older of the two, and thus the one trained in the ways of the Medicine Man. Nascha was instead to train as a partner to the Medicine Man (or Shaman), as the Spirit Warrior. Trained in Combat and all manners of hunting from birth, then imbued with the Skin Walker Tattoo, shaped as an Owl across the entirety of his back, he was responsible not only for the safety of his brother, but also the tribe against such things as Skin Walkers. His Tattoo grants him certain abilities beyond that of man, most importantly, the ability to shapeshift into an Owl much as the Skin Walkers can shift into their animal skins. As part of his training, he has been trained in the use of Peyote to 'transcend' beyond human capacity, and requires at least one dose of Peyote per day. If he goes without his Peyote, he loses some of his more supernatural capabilities such as shifting into an Owl, his Animal-like Senses, and his ability to move things with his mind. As such, as is true of most addicts, he is constantly on the lookout for more Peyote, scouring desert areas in search of the Cacti used to make it. He keeps a pouch on hand at all times with hundreds of the dried skins that he chews on like beef jerky.

===================================
Character needs Peyote to use Powers - Agility 4 drops to 3, loses Owl, Telekinesis, Animal Senses, and Reflexive Dodge without a daily intake of Peyote. (2W)
Navajo Indian - A Native American of the Navajo tribe. He and his twin must function in a world colonized by the pale faces and hostile tribes of the People both. It is not an easy task and often requires vast expenditures of time, resources, or energy to manage. (3W)
Sticks up for Underdog - Must protect ALL humans from the supernatural creatures, and will engage any supernatural that ever endangers another human. It's his calling as a Spirit Warrior (3W)
Special Vulnerability - Due to his Owl Totem, his eyes never adjust to Sunlight. When in direct (no clouds) sunlight, he is partially blind. Hence why, even in warm weather, he wears a blanket over his head to keep the sunlight out of his eyes. For this reason, he is a very pale looking Navajo. (2W)
NOTE: Clothes do not "transform" into Owl...
