Jukha (The Big Game Huntress)Source Divine Mysteries pg. 316Jukha is the goddess of big game hunting. She favors those who work together to bring down large beasts to feed their village, especially if they do so under the cover of night.
As a mortal, Jukha was a
dromaar with dreams similar to
Grask: she wanted to lead orcs into a new age of prosperity by changing how their neighboring countries viewed them. She planned to end the raids, unite the holds of Belkzen, and kill Tar-Baphon to prove her intentions. Despite being a teenager, Jukha gained a following through sheer physical prowess and ferocity, but she failed to inspire teamwork in her followers, and her group splintered. In frustration, she went on a solo hunt for a
mammoth, but she and her prey simultaneously landed lethal blows. She and the mammoth breathed their last together and before she died, Jukha whispered her Deathright.
Upon her ascension, she became the Relentless Huntress, goddess of big game hunting, out of spite. She didn’t make her presence known to mortals for some time, however, choosing to ponder her life. Over time, she realized her mistakes and decided to pass these lessons to mortals. She realized that big game hunting was the perfect way for her to share the necessity of working together.
