Hair: long sand-blonde hair, mostly straight, has considered cutting it

Clothing Style: Her owners are very concerned with appearances and thus Aiyana dresses much better then she’s actually treated. She usually wears a simple long forest dress with a white long sleeve top underneath.
Distinguishing features: Ears and a tail similar to those of the Grey Wolf; they have a colour very close to her hair colour. Her face has a slight wolf like appearance. She also has many busies, cuts and scares all over her body. She has the code: 07-AW tattooed on the inside of her left wrist. It identities her as a slave.

On The Inside
Likes:
Soft Rain: Rain clams Aiyana down because it reminds her that there is a world outside of her master house and orders that is free and growing.
Music: Aiyana loves listening to music, she finds it often calms her down. She doesn’t actually know how to play an instrument or sing, but one of her owners does and she will often listen to them in secret
Children: Aiyana has a soft spot for children, specifically Untamed children. She can become very protective of them, to the point of risking herself for them.
Drawing: IF and when she gets a chance, Aiyana will draw. It is her only for of expression and she has actually drawn out many stories.
Nature: Aiyana prefers a natural environment opposed to an artificial one. She will sometimes take too long for chores and endure a punishment just to spend more time outside.
Dislikes:
Eladrin, Elves and Humans: this seems pretty obvious considering how she’s been treated: taken from her village separated from her brother and forced to work for the noblemen as a slave.
Loud People: She doesn’t really have a reason for hating loud people, but she finds them overly annoying.
Dark Places: Her room in the slave center was small and dark and she thought that she would never leave. She unconsciously gets the feeling of no escape whenever she is forced into a dark place.
Being Indoors: A wolf is not a domesticated animal thus, Aiyana does not deal well with having to stay inside. She would prefer to be outside at all times. Though she bears through it because she is scared as to what her master’s might do.
Her Masters: They don’t treat her the best then try to cover it up so that no one knows their try nature. Aiyana has considered escaping but her tattoo will prevent that.
Strengths:
Running: Just like her brother and many other Untamed, Aiyana is an excellent runner. She can max out at 60 km/h and run for a few hours on end (though not at that speed).
Hearing: Aiyana has incredible hearing and can sounds that many other races and Untamed can’t hear. She finds it comes in handy to listen to one of her owners play music.
Archery: Aiyana has a natural human ability of using a bow and arrow. She isn’t very good but it’s something that she knows how to do.
Physical Strength: Aiyana has a surprising amount of strength for her size because of her animal half. She doesn’t even know the limits of her strength.
Weaknesses:
Claustrophobic: When she was in the Slave Market she was often kept in a small room, and she was known to have panic attacks. She cannot stand small spaces as they remind of that time.
Lack of Trust: Aiyana has trouble trusting anyone, even when she should. It comes from her hate of the High-class citizens. She doesn’t even feel like she can trust the lower species either.
Inablility to handle tough situations: Aiyana doesn’t handle stress well, or heavy physical or emotional situations. This is the main reason she is still stuck at her Masters as a slave.
Fears:
Fire: Aiyana is terrified of fire. Her family was killed in a fire and she and Iye barely made it out alive. She knows that if she never goes near fire again, she won’t have to deal with that trauma.
Isolation: While wolves are “social” animals per say, Aiyana feels the need to have her family or even other Untamed with similar animal halves around her.
Ghosts: She hopes that ghosts don’t exist, but her brother was very good at telling her stories to pass the time and many of the ghost stories got under Aiyana’s skin.
Hopes and Dreams:
Aiyana only has two hopes: one is that she can escape from being a slave and the other is to see her brother again. She doesn’t hold much hope.
The Past
Family:
Iye Hahele Mingan: Her twin brother and her only family. She loves him to death and is secretly waiting for the day when she can see him again.
History:
Aiyana was born into her “family unit” along with her brother, Iye. She already had a few older siblings. Her family traveled around Amber Island a lot through Aiyana’s childhood. She learned how to fight, gather food and fight off attackers during the first seven years of her life. However when Aiyana was seven, humans attacked the part of the forest her family was staying in. The humans set fire to the forest, which nearly killed Aiyana and Iye. Though, the rest of her family wasn’t so lucky, their parents and siblings all died.
Still in shock, Aiyana and Iye were easy prey for Slave Traders and were caught shortly after the fire. Aiyana clung to her bother to the point where some believed they were inseparable. Iye was also very protective of Aiyana and not many got near the two of them. Aiyana spent six months in the slave market before someone was brave enough to approach her. Once people realized that Iye couldn’t actually stop them, Aiyana was under a lot of considerations for being bought.
After another six months, Aiyana was sold to her current masters: the high-class Cartello’s. Aiyana was separated from her brother.
The Cartello’s are an abusive pair and mistreat Aiyana on a regular basis. She has lived with the Cartello’s for the last eight years and hasn’t seen her brother since the day they were separated.

Sample RP post:
The moment of silence caused Serina to worry if she had made the right decision in asking this boy for help. She was ready to back away and leave when he did respond, but with something she hadn’t hoped for. She knew she was going to be a burden now. She didn’t want to be. “Jâ, o jam a shite môshiwake arimasen.” Serina was surprised when she spoke in Japanese, she knew Joshua wouldn’t be able to understand and just hear gibberish. "Thank you, I’m sorry to have bothered you,” She quickly corrected.
Even though her head was down, Serina could see Joshua stand. She knew she couldn’t leave now, that would be rude to Joshua. What should I do now? Serina wondered if Joshua was going to leave, if that’s why he got up. Apparently that wasn’t the case. “Watashi…ah…tripped. I-I tripped,” Serina stuttered out once she realized she had the right words. She raised her head to look at Joshua and found she was looking up. He was more than a foot taller than her. “Uwâ, anata wa segatakai ne,” Serina muttered. It was quite obvious that Joshua was several years older than Serina. His height, his age and his Scar, which Serina just noticed, started to intimidate her. Despite that he talked nicely to her.
Joshua? Serina didn’t remember what the introduction custom was but since Joshua didn’t do anything she figured it wasn’t necessary. “Se-se-Serina. I’m Serina.”
Serina understood she’d have to clean out her cuts, but other injuries? Serina moved her hands apart and that stung a little. “My-my hands hurt?” Serina was partially asking, partially telling. She held her hands out to Joshua but, besides the small gashes from the ground, there didn’t seem to be anything wrong. Serina was having trouble figuring out how to communicate what exactly hurt. Her English was still terrible and she didn’t even know half the words she would need. It wasn’t just Serina’s hand that hurt; she felt this tight, cutting pain in both her writs stretching from her palm to the middle of her forearm.
Serina ran one finger down the area that hurt on her left arm. It hurt just to touch. She hoped Joshua would understand that motion because she couldn’t get the English words she needed to describe her pain.
