Corporal Parvula "Mongoose" Ivori is a small, waifish woman who stands 160cm (a hair shy of 5'3") tall and weighs barely 45kg (99.208lb). She has reddish-hazel eyes and pale skin. Her jet black hair is kept short, just long enough to pull back in a regulation military style. Her features are a bit on the sunken side, which only serves to amplify the occasional thousand yard stare inherent to soldiers who have seen some things. Those with access to her record could learn that she was one of the handful of survivors of the Mara Landing Massacre. Those who have earned her trust might have heard a thing or two about that nightmare.

Over her Guardsman uniform, she proudly wears the full carapace armor that was issued her on completion of Storm Trooper training with the Schola Progenium. She carries a hefty, drum-fed, automatic grenade launcher named Tanna from which she disperses the Emperor's vengeance upon his enemies. In addition, she carries a laspistol sidearm, and also has the care of a standard issue M36 Lasgun with under barrel auxiliary grenade launcher.

Originally hailing from Valhalla, the Corporal has been known to use 'kloms' instead of klicks as shorthand for kilometers. She also occasionally references a form of bird from her homeworld called a traki. In spite of her petite stature, she is remarkably quick and an excellent shot. Both are noteworthy as she has been known in the past to blast unsuspecting foes in the back with krak grenades while they were otherwise engaged with allies in close quarters battle. To date, she's never once hit a friendly.
