Personality:

:

Astid is usually a "stay-by-myself-and-think" kind of person. Everything she feels is tightly locked away inside and she never opens up to anyone. Trust is almost impossible to get from her. Astrid will respect any authority, but that is not the same thing. She does not like crowds, but that is getting better over time. She has never been in anything resembling a "club" or gang before, so dynamics of such things are foreign to her, but she is a quick one to adapt to things such as this. She has a strong mind, as well as body, so Astrid is a real fighter. She prides herself in the tattoo her father blessed her with, and it follows her into either form she takes on. She is a wild child, like the wind in the way she will flit from one place to another but still stay in about the same area. Once she belongs to a group, she hopes to be a little more grounded and find a home. She is slightly unstable at times, and is constantly at war with her panther side. Their personalities differ so greatly, that it's almost impossible for them not to clash. She mostly can control it, though. Like most children who have been abandoned, she shuns all forms of love, but secretly longs for companionship.

Strengths:: Strong-willed, fast runner, good with numbers, sticks to her intuition

Fears:: No longer being necessary

Introduction::

Astrid had never really felt special. Born to a pair of Shifters in the cold cities to the North, her birthing caused the death of her dear Mother, Lorraine. This tragedy caused such grief in the newborns father. It was almost like, with the death of his wife, a piece of his sanity had been hewn away. He grew sick more often, moping around and whimpering like a lost puppy constantly. He would often leave the babe alone in the house while he went on runs, hunted, or visited the cemetery where Lorraine had been buried. One of his closest friends, Albert, advised him to put the lovely little 2-week-old Astrid up for adoption, concerned only for the well-being of Edward. He considered it, but eventually relented. After all, looking into the silver eyes of his daughter, he could see nothing but her mothers cold, calculating glance that he had fallen in love with at the very start. Staying with foster family number one, the one that Edward had chosen for Astrid in a last attempt at kindness towards his child, the baby eventually grew into an unruly teenager. She did everything in her power to strive towards freedom from her caged life, and traveled from foster family to foster family for her entire childhood. She blamed herself for her mothers’ death, which no one could talk her out of because it had actually been her fault. She was a recluse, never speaking to any of the foster parents, no matter how much they pleaded for her to open up. After a while, the families would grow sick of her constantly defying them, and not speaking to them, and they would send her right back. Finally, on the day she turned 18 years old, Astrid bolted from her final foster home, leaving no note or inkling to where she was going. All she needed were the clothes on her back, and a silver crescent moon necklace that her mother had worn even at her funeral. Traveling with a small backpack filled with some money and a couple of maps, as well as the detachment from her father that the fostering had caused, she disappeared from the lives of both him and her adoptive parents, hopefully for good. She was raised in a Shifter home, knew of her shift from the time of her birth. It wasn’t until she was out on her own that she utilized it for daily needs, like food. Her panther shape became a part of her as easily as the human part, though the personalities meshed so harshly together. She roamed around the North for a while, but left after a few weeks. It had too many bad memories… too many hostile times from her childhood that she wanted desperately to leave behind her. Eventually she found this place… a place where Shifters could live and be taught without prejudice. She raced there as soon as she could, hoping that she could find somewhere that she could be accepted, and could learn more about how to live.

Animal Shift::

Astrid is prideful of her animal form. Its sleek black pelt, sharp silver eyes, and cutthroat personality are only a few things about being a black panther that she loves. She almost takes on a completely different persona when she changes, becomes a totally different Astrid in both mind and body. She becomes a flirty seductress, unafraid of anything and laughing in the face of danger. She is intense, strong, and fierce. As unruly as she is free, without inhibitions to hold her back from things she desires. She thrills in the power of her form... in the strength she wields. It makes her feel invincible. She is still wary, but she replaces that scared demeanor with deep growls and harsh actions. She has been known to be quite eccentric, and does not like it when others get too close. Even in their animal forms, they should watch it. Personal space is important to her in this shape. She loves to slink about in the night air, silent as a ghost, as invisible as if you had taken chunks of her surroundings and placed them onto her black pelt. She is calmer, not as hot-headed, and she acts with a calm fluidity that few could possess. Only those that have a feline form could even come close. That grace and charisma, it overflows from her. She is as beautiful as a big cat as she is in her human shape. Just watch your step around her, and you should do fine. It isn’t wise to anger this particular pantheress.
