Serac

Serac (sr-ak) is a member of Salsola, ranked among The Family. She is a leatherworker and blacksmith eager to improve her skills and broaden her talents.

Born into a feral pack, Serac was one of many puppies born that year. She had several "cousins" who were in actuality half-siblings, something which did not seem all that important to her until she reached shifting age. At that point, she began attracting the attention of her relatives. Uncomfortable and finding little support in her community, Serac made the decision to leave.

She traveled for some time until she arrived in Manitoba. While scavenging around a small settlement, a family found and took Serac in. Though initially suspicious, she soon found her place and began learning trade skills. In particular, the ability to tan and preserve hide and make leather were tasks she excelled with. Over time, she began learning more complex skills -- how to piece together sturdy armor, and how to make use of a forge to turn old metal into new, useful things.

While trading in the city of Winnipeg, Serac came across a collection of settlers whose wealth and powerful presence awed her. Eventually, they told her about their homeland – a place to the far east, nearly the end of the continent. Convinced that this was a group that she wanted to be a part of, Serac told her adoptive family of her intentions. Though this soured things between them, to some extent, they parted on relatively good terms.

For the next two months, Serac made her way ever eastward. She eventually found herself in the wilderness west of Searsport – and it was here she rescued a young man from a precarious situation. Though he initially would not tell her his destination, when she revealed her own they found themselves travelers with a common destination – Salsola, the Thistle Kingdom.

Serac is a large wolf, with a thick coat and big paws. She is very fit and rugged looking, with bright blue eyes. Her dark undercoat fades to lighter grays at the ends, with white frosting found throughout fur. This is also found around her underside/down her legs, though they are topped with black.
