Profile of Ishild: Details
Appearance
A long figure comprised of thin legs and a graceful build. Slender in stature, the female sports a contrastingly thick pelt that causes her to look larger than she is and far more ferocious when it is raised. Composed primarily of mottled silver and ash (paling significantly on her undercarriage), Ishild is a pale spectre that blends easily into the background of things. Her unique markings come in the form of the inky Cairn mask that covers her eyes and the bridge of her muzzle like that of a raccoon. The tactician sports a pair of brilliant chartreuse eyes that are as sharp as her wit.

Personality
Thoughtful and strategic, Ishild is warmer and even kinder (if you can call her that) than most of her siblings. She is a diplomat in times of war, but forever lusts for those adrenaline-rich times of battle, the feel of flesh giving beneath calculated fangs. A sharp mind and quick tongue, Ishild is far more brains than brawn. However, her sharp intellect and cunning diplomacy make for a difficult fight even against the biggest of foes.
Ishild does not lie and will not deceive, but she will hide information or twist her words -- much like a genie -- but she's not afraid to kill if its what keeps order. Ambitious as she is, she respects any leader specifically in her bloodline as she would her own, or even herself unless they've given her a pretty good reason not to.
Lawful Evil is her fitting alignment, strict as she is about following order, promises, and traditions.
She also believes that there are two kinds of people in the world: those who are strong, and those who are weak; the weak serve the strong to make them stronger. Whether or not Ishild herself returns such and helps a "weak" depends wholly on her opinion of the person she thinks they are. Weakness is usually treated as an illness, and the worst-case-scenario punishment is death.
There are few things that matter to the Cairn woman above power, knowledge, and survival, but she has a weak spot for pups and the disabled -- even Ishild can't allow herself to harm them, even indirectly.
Biography
After Skellige left, Ishild found herself wondering about her place in Warsaw. It was guarded fine by the others, why did they need her? It was hard to live under the pressure of the neighboring packs attempting to seize the islands all the time, and she wanted to go somewhere where she could stretch her knowledge. She traveled in the opposite direction that Skellige had gone once she reached her first birthday. She expanded her knowledge and now knew much about herbs, astronomy, history, and battle. Of course, she was already a skilled fighter from the many lectures she'd received in the Islands, but on her trip, she gained knowledge of new strategies. Her sharp intellect allowed her to combine her two worlds and gain even more knowledge.

However, she soon grew bored with where she was and headed back to Warsaw, seeking more change. Unfortunately, nothing had changed, so she pushed off once again, this time in search of Skellige. He tasks her with strengthening the ranks of Teaghlaigh, so it is there she heads.
