Tala

✧ ────────────────────────────────────── ✧

trigger warnings: blood/gore.

☆   Backstory:

Tala’s memories of her childhood and earlier years are next to non-existent except for haunting memories of the discovery of her powers, what she really was, and the attempts at her life by The Hunter and The Huntress. Since the early discovery of her identity, Tala has spent year after year scouring the planet for answers: why was she like this, was she the only one, and why did the Hunters want her dead? So far there have been no answers. After the accidental death of a corrupt clergy by her hands Tala was revered by a local gang and briefly joined the business of Mercenaries with them for a short time, a path which let her earn money and learn defensive skills at the same time, before taking her new-found trade elsewhere. A lead in the city of Cel Fosc about ‘The Creatures of The Moon’ brought Tala a step closer in the right direction when she learned of an Enchanter with knowledge of her kind. Unbeknownst to Tala, the lead was a ruse set up by her hunters and the resulting battle nearly took her life and that of The Huntress but an abrupt snowstorm broke off the fight early and Tala was able to retreat. Recovered but with a broken spirit, Tala presses on in her quest as a Lone Wolf.

☆  Abilities: 

Though her ability to change can be done at any time, she prefers to stay human in urban areas to prevent suspicion but will gladly change once it is 100% safe. In either form strength is not her greatest asset but her build allows her to perform swift and accurate movements, jump far higher than the average human and dash quickly out of harm's way. She will stand her ground in a fight for many reasons, some more logical than others, and in either form she’s a force to be reckoned with being equipped with savage survival instincts. She is basically unaffected by the cold, though the heat bothers her which drives her to a swim in the nearest body of water. Even in human form, when her anger boils over her eyes will begin to yellow and her fangs will poke through as will her claws. Tala can understand all animals, even in human form, and can speak in wolf form as well.
