Karria and her forbidden lover, Valerian Stormwind?, traveled across seas to 'Souls in early 2017 from their lives of royalty in the UK in hopes to start new lives without the rules and restrictions of their noble blood lines. Karria joined the pack Case di Cavalieri and for a short time was settling into the unfamiliar ways of being a commoner in a pack and working to develop her skills to prove her loyalty to her new home. But soon unforeseen circumstances called her and Valerian away forcing them to leave the pack.

Now a few years later, Karria, minus her mate, have returned to 'Souls under different circumstances. With a few more scars and life experiences under her belt, Karria seeks rejoining the pack she had once tried to join previously and hopes for a second chance. She finds however that Mistfell Vale is more to her liking and joins their ranks instead in March 2019.

After yet another brief time away, she has returned to Mistfell Vale for good, and is putting her skills as healer to good use.

2.  Personality

Karria is used to being surrounded by nobles so much of her personality is shaped and catered around being a proper lady. As she is able to find her own way in life, free of the restrictions and rules she was raised into, she will eventually loosen up and becomes less of a hoity toity princess and a much more relaxed and fun loving lady. As of right now, she has a lot to learn about how "regular folk" live and that world does not revolve around her.

  • Melee Combat (Novice): With her being a noblewoman, Karria was not expected to ever have to enter battle so she is not well equipped for close combat. She feels rather vulnerable now in these new lands without this skill.

  • Music (Unskilled): Musical instruments have always called to her, she would like to learn the harp, piano, flute and/or guitar.

5.  History

  • Born into nobility in an area of the UK wilderness ruled by packs based off similar hierarchy as medieval feudal systems using old castles and abandoned villages and keeps as pack bases. Raised as a noblewoman and the pride and joy (akin to the "Princess") of the pack.
  • Spoiled with riches and custom, one of a kind possessions. Held to high expectations and discipline.
  • Educated from an early age, trained in skills of choice (she chose healing and archery) as well as diplomacy in hopes for her to one day rule and lead as Alphess. She excelled in archery. Was best in her pack, better than most males. She put her everything into this skill when the life of a noble became too stressful and stuffy.
  • On a diplomatic visit to a neighboring pack, she met and fell in love with a nobleman (the "Prince") of another pack whom also shared her views of feeling restricted by his pack's rules and they developed a forbidden romance even though Karria was promised to be mated to another noble from a 'friendlier' (red: richer) pack. The two met in secret for many months, nearly a year, in which time, Karria was taught Falconry by her lover and gifted her own bird, before being the two were discovered.
  • The two eloped one night after both sides' parents disapproved and forbid their mateship. Commanding one of his pack's ships to seek a life free of the rules and restrictions they'd grown up in the two sought to travel across seas to rumored free lands there. Each of them took one loyal servant along.
  • Eventually they reached 'Souls, a bit worse for wear but hopeful for a new life, seeking to join one of the packs here in the strange new lands. They quickly are drawn to CdC as it's similar to what they were raised into and is the first, closet pack to their landing site.
  • They offer their myriad of skills and the ship to CdC as gestures of peace and loyalty. Today they are settling in to pack life, building their new lives as members of CdC.
  • When called away by other members of her old pack having sailed to new lands and seeking leadership, Karria and Valerian left Cdc t assist their kin.
  • Travels led to many experiences and lessons along the way. In September 2018 a group of slavers attacked the small group of loners and carried off many of them. Karria managed to escape thanks to the heroic efforts of her mate, but she has not seen him since. Valerian is presumed dead.
  • Forced to move along on her own, Karria now seeks the pack that she'd joined upon first arriving to the new lands in hopes for a second chance. She comes across Mistfell Vale which was not established in her previous journey to these lands and decides to join their ranks instead.

6.  The Traditional Featherwright Personal Achievement Feathers

As a sort of personal track-record or journal, Karria (both ICly and I, Westy as her player) tracks her personal achievements via a feather journalism system. She marks each occasion in a small leather bound journal that has her family's crest imprinted upon it and presses small, white and blue-dyed feathers into the pages, writing little notes and memoirs beneath them to commemorate the events of her life. It is an old tradition of her family heritage that has stuck with her, despite her rejecting her families' ways otherwise. Her collected achievements thus far can be found at the bottom of her forum profile and are marked by the image of this feather:
