Aisling Galaxy

Avatar by Nat

Aisling is the daughter of Luxa and Kellaghn Galaxy, eldest granddaughter of Cheif Arctos (since deceased). She has two younger siblings, a sister named Astrid and a brother named Taiga. She was born and raised as a shaman in a small tribal pack in northern Alaska. She is currently exploring the lands of 'Souls in search of a pack to settle into after her reign as chieftain in her tribe ended and her brother took up the responsibility. Despite her age, she still has much to learn and a long journey ahead of her. Being so secluded in her small village has left her with very little insight to the outside world. At this time she seeks to better her English speaking skills so that communicating with the locals won't be such a challenge.

  • Drowning: Due to a nightmare when young, she fears deep waters and putting her head under.
  • Thunderstorms: The sudden, loud noise and bright flashing light and general unpredictable chaos of such weather makes her extremely uncomfortable and often frightened. She will try to ride out the worst of it in hiding if at all possible.
  • Snakes: Although one of nature's creatures, Aisling is very superstitious and fearful of snakes. They are a bad omen where she comes from.

  • Non-Luperci: Find them fascinating and treats them with utmost respect.
  • Gender: More timid around men than women.
  • Color: N/A
  • Sexuality: Sees homosexuality and bisexuality as strange and "unnatural" due to her upbringing. Same goes for polyamory.
  • Age: Believes all elders should be respected and taken care of and children are to be nourished and protected at all costs for they are the future.

Sexuality

Aisling has not explored her sexuality all that much thanks to her upbringing. She was raised to be straight and as a shaman she was taught to be monogamous and look for certain "signs" from her ancestors on whether or not someone is "the one" for her. Within her pack, she never really found traces of said signs. Bisexuality and homosexuality she was taught is "unnatural" but hasn't truly formed her own opinion on the matter yet. She's rather naive when it comes to pleasures of the flesh. When she comes into season she will still to this day hide herself away for fear of her body getting away with her and breeding with someone who is not her mate. This rigid way of thinking can be changed over time as she learns more about herself and sexuality in general.

Interests

  • Likes: Nature, rain, cold, snow, night time, hunting, learning, shamanism/spirituality, medicine, music, crafting, exploring.
  • Dislikes: Swimming in deep water, snakes, heights, loud noises, thunderstorms, fighting, heat, dishonesty, boredom, secrets and politics.

Substances

Aisling knows of alcohol and drugs, but has yet to try any herself having been raised with the notion that such things cloud the mind and corrupt the spirit. Recently she's had a taste of Tobacco, but finds it's not much to her liking.

Spirituality

Aisling believes in ancestral, shamanistic influences, omens/signs from spirits and dream visions. She often will chant and pray to her ancestors and the gods and goddesses of nature. She uses prayer side by side with her healingm/medicinal practices, hunting rituals, and even dabbles a bit in fortune reading with knucklebones and ancient rune-stones passed down through her family.

5.  History

Born in the frozen, northernmost reaches of Alaska under the mystical dancing lights of the Aurora Borealis, Aisling was raised in a small, close-knit, primitive, and tribal-like pack as the eldest granddaughter of the village chief. From birth, her path was chosen for her based on signs from her ancestors seen by the Chief (her grandfather) during one of his "dream visions". From a young age she was taught the ways of shamanism. In her pack shamans were held in the highest regard; they were healers, the wisest, most peaceful and caring members of the pack. It is believed they are also the most closely connected beings with the spirits and ancestors of the past.

Aisling never questioned the path her ancestor's had chosen for her and excelled in her studies as she grew, not only in body, but in mind and spirit as well. She learned the arts and secrets of medicine and the uses of various plants and animals. She honed her spiritual beliefs and learned to read signs from her ancestors and "communicate" with them. She learned how to feel with her intuition and see with her heart. Although content with her path, Aisling found she yearned to explore the world, expand her knowledge further and spread her teachings by helping others outside of her home tribe. At 2 years of age, she set off on her own with one of the pack's reindeer across the frozen lands and headed East. As she travelled she met a few lone folk who traded goods with her and helped her along her way. She found herself in Nova Scotia, intrigued by all the established packs there and a little intimidated, but sought to find one where she might fit in.

Since coming to the new lands, Aisling had mostly kept to herself, her naivety and lack of socialization previously making it difficult for her to "get out there" so to speak. Although she was slowly learning as she went, she still had a long journey ahead to unlock her full potential and find out where she belonged.

Unfortunately troubling visions of back home, urged her to return to her small village in Alaska, abandoning her journey in the new lands. She made her way back, only to find that a disease had struck her people. And a new leader was needed to bring a new era of hope and teachings to the next generation. Being the next in line for chiefdom, Aisling took up the mantle and for many years lead her small pack, but always feeling the pull of the foreign lands she'd so briefly gotten to explore.

Now with some age under her belt Aisling has passed the torch of leadership onwards to her brother, and once more set forth to seek the foreign lands she'd once visited with a new reindeer companion (Inuk sadly succumbed to a harsh winter). Going has been slow, but the Shaman woman is hopeful for the chance to learn from new opportunities that she'd once missed out on.
