Background
Leandra Fawley was born to an extremely wealthy family in upstate New York, growing up apart from the rest of the world on their huge estates in rather stilted if luxurious style. She was raised mostly by her mother and servants, taught by private tutors but spending most of her time outdoors.
Her supposed father died before her birth, but in truth she was the result of an affair between her mother and Zeus in one of his many guises leaving Leandra growing up largely with the family game warden as her role model, she found she loved the outdoors and the thrill of the hunt. Her mother had turned to sloth and endless reading leaving Leandra with a generous allowance and no supervision, so her tendency to run wild and focus on her hunting went unchecked, but she grew rapidly bored.
Where was the fun in hunting half domesticated animals on a tended estate and privately owned woods? Still in her teens she started to spend much of her time on various safaris to exotic locations while eschewing much of the comfort and ease common to such excursions. Hunting tigers on foot without support was much more of a rush, and when even this ceased to be a challenge she moved to adding outside factors, hunting in areas plagued by militia or civil wars for that added thrill. Until she ran into a death squad murdering and raping a village that was.
Exposed to the horrors people were inflicting on each other her smug self assurance and thrill seeking came crashing down. She was not looking at people shaped objects while she enjoyed herself with sport, these were real people living often horrible lives that were netherless being cut short. So she started to kill, hunting down men now regardless of why they had been doing what they did, it had to stop. One girl with a hunting rifle was no match for dozens with guns and machetes though no matter how good a shot she was, hit in the leg and about to be hacked to death she was saved by the timely arrival of Artemis, having noticed her plight and the preoccupation of an otherwise occupied Zeus who did not mind indulging his daughter.
Now recovered, Leandra is intend on continuing what she started, namely continuing the hunt with ever more dangerous prey that needs to be put down for good. She is not going to be able to do that taking things at ease though and so has moved away from her mother to come and live in New York, where she is fairly sure she is not going to find a shortage of things to do.
