Description
Will be scrapped. Just felt like doing a ref sheet for a character I plan to use at my roleplay forum, Cetus Sea.

I won't add a long-winded profile here. The short version would be, Eva is Sigrún's mother, and both are part of a small pod of Type B Antarctic killer whales.

Used lineart by *AnoOrca: [link]
As AnoOrca was the original designer of Sigrún, whom I adopted, I thought it fitting to use the lineart again.

Name: Eva ("eh-vah"; Latinate form of Eve)
Species: Orcinus orca / Killer whale / Orca
-Sub-Species: Antarctic Type B / Transient
Gender: Female
Age: 30-35 (est.)
Appearance: 16 ft. at 8,000 lbs. Bold, thick eyepatches. Short, hollow saddle patch.
Personality: Eva is a gentle, but retiring female. She's not as outgoing as either of her calves, and can usually be found swimming at the back of any given group. Rarely does she ever go anywhere alone, and is prone to nervous fits of vocalization. Loss of her own mother at an early age is suspected to be the cause of her insecurities. She is almost always seen traveling in the company of her daughter, D'U-001/Sigrún, and her son, D'U-003/Viktor.
History: Eva and her family were among the first Southern Ocean orca pods to be actively pursued and documented for scientific purposes, by a Norweigan-based research team. They are thought to frequent the waters between the D'Urville Sea (between East Antarctica and Tasmania) and the Ross Sea. The given time of year appears to determine in which area they are most likely found, as they are thought to migrate south, to the Ross Sea, in the winter to feed on seals and small whales.
Of these twelve, numbered individuals, she was the second female to be given a name, owing to the time of day in which she was sighted. In contrast to her daughter, who'd shown an active interest in people and boats, Eva almost never paid any attention to researching visitors.
The remaining individuals of the D'Urville pod were suspected to be Eva's extended relatives, possibly, two female cousins with their own offspring. At any given time, Eva and her calves were always observed in the middle of or following the two subgroups, never in the lead. Even so, Sigrún's mildly-dominating tendencies appear to sometimes bring her mother into conflict with the other older cows. A lesser collection of rake marks on Eva's skin attest to her low, but compliant social status.
Other:
- ID number is D'U-002.
- Is suspected to have given birth to one other calf after Sigrún, who did not survive its first winter.
