Abigail Sadira is the firstborn daughter of Shiloh Dawnbringer and Silvano Sadira. She was raised in Vinátta among her mother's family but decided to join her father's pack, Cour des Miracles, when she felt that her father's family needed a feminine touch.
After some floundering and wheel spinning, in 2016 Abigail began to work her way up the Court's Domestic ranks. She currently holds the rank of Grand-Duchessa and helps Silvano Sadira with some of the running of the Court. She has been delighted to see most of her siblings join the pack, and just as delighted to fall in love with Kira Raine of Casa di Cavalieri.
She was less delighted to discover that Kalypso Savoy is her half-sister, a revelation in the Winter of 2017/18 which caused Abigail to question many aspects of her life and her devotion to her family.

1.2 Miscellaneous
Adornments
Abigail's mother was a tailor, and a well-dressed woman; she grew up around dresses and other things and had amassed quite the collection of garments before Shiloh's death. More often than not, she's found sporting some article of clothing.
Once a breezy and naive Daddy's girl, particularly as a teenager, Abigail has grown into a more serious and caring adult. She spent a good portion of her life being devoted to her pack and to bringing her family together. With that (mostly) achieved and with her own family started in late 2017, she set her sights on making her parents proud, especially her beloved Father - but L'Hiver De l'Or Terni took its toll on her kind, sweet personality. While her sweetness remains intact for all intents and purposes, Abigail has developed a level of coldness towards those who might harm or betray her younger sisters or her children.
Extended: Abigail has a very large extended family, with a ton of cousins. While she knows her mother's close Stormbringer relatives best, she also has far-reaching relatives in the Sadira and Marino family via her father.
3.2 Relations
Key Relations
Silvano Sadira: Abigail's father. She chose to join the Court, feeling his family needed a girl. Historically she was a Daddy's girl, seeing Silvano as invincible and infallible. In 2017 and especially in the Winter of 2017/18, that changed.
Kira Raine: Kira wasn't what Abi imagined in a beau; despite that and the moderate distance between them with Kira living in Casa di Cavalieri, Abigail fell for Kira's gentle personality completely. She declared her love for him in the Summer of 2017.
Kalypso Savoy: Revealed in 2018 as Abigail's half-sister and born of infidelity much like Abigail, she sees Kalypso as a good leader but not a family member just yet.
Pascal Sadira: Abigail's older half-brother. They adore each other and were close before Pas left the Court to help found its Outpost.
Shiloh Dawnbringer: Abigail's mother, who left Vinatta to join the Court. Abigail was close to Shiloh, though they may have drifted a little when her youngest sisters arrived. When Shiloh was murdered by Mistral de l'Or in 2018, Abigail felt a lot of guilt. She misses her Momma a lot.
Positive Relations
Alessan Stormbringer: Abigail's same-age brother. They love to annoy each other but ultimately she would do anything for Ale.
Dreyma Moineau: Abi's other same-age sibling. She isn't as close to Dreyma as she is to Alessan and she thinks she spends too much time with Skoll, but she loves Dreyma.
Thyri Dawnbringer: Abi's younger sister, who always lived elsewhere but joined the Court eventually, allowing the two to grow closer. Abi admires Thyri's strength and sees a lot of Shiloh in her.
Skoll Haskel: Skoll seems to enjoy pushing Abi's buttons, and she (mostly) puts up with it because she thinks that he's a good guy deep down.
Faolan Kido: A friend of Abigail. She was charmed by the country boy, though since it's been so long since they've seen each other, her feelings have waned into mere fondness for her first crush.
Neutral / Negative
Eugene Sadira: Another half-brother; she doesn't know him as well as Pascal.
Leander Sadira: Youngest half-brother; they've never met.
Myrkr Stormbringer: Abi's younger brother. She doesn't know him very well.
Linden Aatte: They shared few interactions before Linden was banished for being complicit in Mistral's takeover.
Education and Learning: Largely self-taught through much experimentation; some knowledge gleaned from pack feasts etc.
Meats (Journeyman): Abi has a good sense of when meat is properly cooked and seasoned; cooked meats are probably her go-to cuisine.
Baking (Apprentice): She's less confident in making baked goods, though she has done so with limited success.
Tends to stick to what she knows in cooking.
Tailoring
Education and Learning: Mostly taught by Shiloh , with some self-practice.
Sewing (Journeyman): Abigail is able to patch up clothing and sew simple items.
Clothing design (Dabbler): She hasn't delved into designing items of clothing yet, though she has a natural eye for what might look good on the Luperci form.
Abigail has little to no experience in crafting complex garments.
Jewelry Making
Education and Learning: Mostly self-taught with some input from others.
Seaglass (Journeyman): The bulk of Abi's trinkets are crafted from shards of seaglass.
Abigail is yet to find a way to shape the seaglass, so any jewelry made with it relies on a lucky find.
Weapons
Education and Learning: Taught by various Courtiers and Vinattans over the years.
Archery (Journeyman): The bow is Abigail's longest standing weapon of choice.
Daggers (Dabbler): In early 2018 she started learning how to use daggers in combat, believing she needed to learn a closer-range weapon.
Abigail doesn't practice with her weapons enough!
Horses
Education and Learning: Taught how to look after horses by Silvano with additional help from Alder.
Horse Care (Journeyman): Abigail is very fond of the Court's stables and horses and spends a lot of time taking care of their basic needs.
Riding/Handling (Master): Abi started learning to ride almost as soon as she'd shifted; she's a competent and confident rider and has no fear of horses of any kind.
Her lack of fear around horses could be seen as a weakness.
Abigail and Alessan were the result of a romantic tryst between Cour des Miracles King, Silvano Sadira, and Vinátta Araedi, Shiloh Dawnbringer. After she discovered that Silvano had a mate and twosons back in his pack, Shiloh decided to raise the pups on her own among her own family. She gave birth to them in early June, and shortly thereafter they were joined by an adoptive sister, Dreyma.
In late June, the Ironside Coalition targeted Vinátta. The puppies were stolen as leverage against the pack. Thankfully, their time in captivity was short, and they were returned to their mother -- though Shiloh was clearly affected by the conflict and became overly protective. She kept her children close as she raised them, with their father often visiting.
However, children yearn for adventure -- and Abigail was no exception, traveling (accompanied by Axle and Grit) to her father's pack of Cour des Miracles. Here she discovered her family's secret, learning that she had two half-brothers in the Court and that Silvano was unfaithful to their mother. Upset by the thought of a broken family, she never quite shakes off her sadness when she returns home. In March, Abigail makes the decision to join Cour des Miracles.
Abigail has since settled in her father's pack, growing close to Silvano and her brother Pascal while making new friends and staying touch with her family in the north. In late 2016, after some indecision, she entered the Domestic ranks.
Leaf on a breeze Abigail comes across the Sacred Grove and learns about it and the gods from Anu.
Spinning into place Abigail wanders past Farina vin Haki's den and into a puddle. When lectured about wandering, she explains that she's practicing her traveling so she can get to "Daddy's Kingdom."
Little blessings in disguise Silvano is surprised to find his daughter in his Kingdom. They talk a little about the brothers Abi didn't know about, and Silvano gives his daughter a horseback riding lesson.
if you're half of something, you're broken Abigail meets her half-brother, Pascal Sadira, who angrily reveals the truth of the Shiloh-Silvano affair. Abi is upset at the revelation, but the two try to mend things and promise to be brother and sister to each other.
Get ready for the judge in me Abigail returns to Vinátta from the Court. She tells Shiloh about her trip -- including Pascal and what she found out. Abi wants the family to be together, but Shiloh tells her that this can't happen, leaving Abigail disappointed.
