born to the tanzanite chacal alongside sister chiro, chani was raised in utter peace and grew up in calm. there were few conflicts, many feasts, rituals, festivals, and a general air of settled goodwill.

january 2025 saw her conceive. a reckless fling with another seawolf would later bring tragedy. in february 2025, following chani's trail, the pirates of murkwood raided sapphique. chani, her mother chacal, and her aunt mireille were taken captive, all pregnant with the next generation of their seacoast lineage. the rogue crowell, one of the potential fathers of chani's brood, has taken her to be his personal captive.

chani languishes in anger now, growing with her children and vowing that murkwood nor crowell will ever possess them.
