Akane Heiya

Akane Heiya is a character that first appears in the Fourth Side Story. She’s a scrappy survivor with a special affinity for archery. Heiya has waist length black hair, thin eyes, and a sharp chin. Her waist, left wrist, and left thigh is wrapped with several ragged bandages, with the ones on her thigh splattered with blood. Her left bicep is wrapped in a piece of torn fabric, likely a handkerchief. She wears a crop top and a skirt, both of which are very short and tattered. On both her hands are a pair of heavy-duty fingerless gloves. Her face rarely holds a positive expression. Prior to coming to the Borderlands, Heiya had a lowly outlook on life and herself as a result of childhood trauma. She didn’t care about anything, never tried anything, and casually slept with men to get anything she did want, thinking she could die young after her womanly allure faded. However, her outlook changed during her first game.
