Adrieanna history begins long before his birth in the Salvaje Valley. Her parents relationship was passionate, but not perfect. They had founded a pack together called Angeni Sanctuary, and one night her father left to return to his business in the North. A few weeks later his Mother followed after discovering she was pregnant and refusing to raise their young alone, as she had been raised by a single mother. She lost this children, and he pack disbanded in their absence. Months passed and Salene took up another mate only to have Auryn return, changing the course of her life yet again. Though enraged, she could not deny that her heart still furiously begged for Auryn, and as a nearby Mountain erupted the two fled North.
In the months that came, Salene found herself pregnant again, but life was still destined not to smile upon the pair. As his fondest wish Auryn passed in battle defending their home. Salene leaned heavily upon the strength and wisdom of her brother Saeran Feralheart, the Cheif of the neighboring Stormspire. Her clan did flourish, though slowly. When her litter of five was born in April, she was pleased that her pups looked mostly like their father, with the exception of one.
Adrieanna was nothing of the child that her mother had hoped and longed for. Her childhood was filled with tests and the fruit of her mother's complex regarding her own father. Adrieanna was born a weak pup but she never gave up.

It is one of these 'tests' that caused him to strike out on her own, determined to prove her worth in his Mother's eyes.
