Personal History: Born to a recognized pair, Bramble was brought up in the tribe’s usual caring but firm manner. She was a rambunctious child, prone to getting herself into trouble and gave her parents cause to worry. In return, they would apprentice her off to various hunters and gatherers, so in time she learned to hunt and gather what she could to help the tribe and keep her out of trouble. Her most lasting impression was from Sunfeather, the dancer. She threw her heart into learning the steps to various dance moves. Since Sunfeather’s death she’s been practicing on her own, sometimes with the aid of elders who can send her visions of the dances as they once saw them, but it’s not the same. Her father’s disappearance cut her deeply at the time, but she holds hope that he’s still out there somewhere. She took her mother’s death a little better, since she accepts it as part of the Way. As of now, she’s just returned from her successful soul name search. Wolf-friend- Name: Shiver Age: 6 Gender: Male Appearance: A dark solid gray with a sharp amber gaze.

Personality: A stubborn, steady wolf with a sharp intelligence, but a playful side shows as well. He is very loyal to his pack and the hunt and has an almost paternal air towards the elves.
