Profile

Few really know how this werewolf girl came to once serve the Shadow Lord, Serrak. After his disappearance and the return of her once stolen memories, Hati soon found herself on a different path. While diminutive in size, she makes up for it by being clever and quick. She tends to take odd jobs at times, accompanying adventurers when it suits her, or selling her services in potion-craft, thievery, or hedge magic. Often, she is the sort of person when something needs to be done quickly, and quietly. Nevertheless, the girl has a temper, and despises those who mock her size or misjudge her strength. Both quick-fingered as a thief, and deceptively powerful as a wolf, this girl is the sort that can handle most things the world throws at her. Yet, figuring out who she is and what she stands for may prove to be the hardest task of all. Luckily, she seems to have some positive influences keeping her from seeking out a darker path.

Background

Hati byMirageV.png

Once, a long time ago, there had been a powerful pack of werewolves who roved the distant mountains. They say that a powerful child was born into the pack, destined to lead them to greatness. What they don't say is that there had been a runt of a child, born to the same parents, and seen as a great disgrace. The details have been lost in the haze of time and dark spells which have dulled those memories, but despite that, there is still one thing Hati remembers most clearly: Her father walking away, leaving her to die in the snow from injuries made by his claws.

That is where Serrak found her, still clinging to life even as night fell. The Shadow Lord had been drawn to the pack by the whispers of a boy with great power, yet somehow this girl caught his attention more-so. She already had the darkness in her heart that could easily be manipulated to his purposes. Better to take one cast-off girl, than fight the entire pack in order to acquire the boy. It took a while for her to recover from the injuries she suffered at her father's hands. A few months later, Hati sat before a mirror, looking at her human form with the notched ear, and her scarred eye with the color that didn't match the other across from it. Serrak had managed to save her sight, but she would forever be marked by the cruelty she'd suffered.

And yet, Serrak bade her to leave behind everything but the pain. It was his own sort of magic - the kind that subtlely pulled on those threads within her mind, making her forget. It was all too easy for a girl who wanted nothing more than to forget. Rather than being an unwanted runt, Hati trained to become stronger. She served the man who saved her, who took her in when no one else wanted her, and in time, as the memories faded, he came to be the only person she truly trusts. What lingers are faded memories of a boy who was kind to her, a mother's musical voice, and a wolf who she hated with every part of her soul. Darkness turned inward, Hati became a willing tool, having seen some of the worst that the worlds' had to offer.

While she might never become full size for a Werewolf, Hati learned how to channel the hatred and darkness within her, using it as a weapon more fierce than tooth and claw alone. Soon, other Shadow Lords began to use the girl for their errands, especially when they didn't want to get their hands dirty directly. It was after returning from one of these missions that Hati found Serrak's home empty. There was no sign of him, nor any note as to where he had gone. By now, though, Hati had become used to being alone. She knew the task her master wished - and she still had the other Shadow Lords to look to for guidance.

With Serrak gone, though, other things became to influence her path. Her memories began to return, she found her brother, and little by little she began to understand that maybe things were not as clear as she had thought they were. It left her with no choice but to strike out on her own, waiting to see what this new path has in store for her, and just what sort of road she will choose to travel, be it to light, or darkness, or somewhere in between.

Personality

It is strange how one thing can mold the way a person becomes, but still doesn't quite define everything about who they are. Anger has been the tool that honed Hati into the woman she's become as an adult. She cannot stand those who look down on her, or otherwise mis-judge her strength or experience based on her size alone. Pride often drives her to show that she's just that much tougher than anyone gives her credit for. She's worked harder to prove herself than anyone else. She has a temper, and a tendency to lash out at people and react physically rather than trying to understand or talk through something. Over time, this has started to change, but she still struggles with the urge to handle things with fists rather than with words. She tends to use what physical strength she has to her advantage, always trying to show that she is more than just some runt of a girl.

While Hati flat out refuses to be mistreated, and is not fool enough to be a simple thoughtless henchmen, she also has no interest in being a leader. She has a pack-like mentality, where she works to achieve the goals of the 'pack', but she will never take the position where she would have to lord over anyone. A lone wolf can choose who deserves their loyalty, but leader has to be responsible for the entire pack, and she doesn't want that sort of weight on her shoulders.

For the most part, Hati does not have a good grasp on more positive emotions. What fleeting bits of happiness she remembers from her childhood have been overshadowed by her experiences. She has bits and pieces that come to her now and then, but those brief moments seem like nothing compared to the cruelty she's witnessed in so many worlds. One of the few feelings she does understand is loyalty. It is one of those things that comes naturally to a wolf, even if it has been twisted slightly. She has begun to understand some of what she feels, but it is still like taking the first steps into a foreign ocean. She wants all the things she might have lost, but right now, she doesn't know how to reclaim those things. With so few close ties, the girl is still vulnerable to sinking into volatile states where harm done to those she cares about can be met with raw vengeance, regardless of personal cost.

With wolfish instincts, Hati tends to be quite impulsive. She takes what she wants, without much thought to the consequences. The only exception, thus far, has been in dealing with her affection towards a certain Templar. Where her own emotions come into play, she's far more likely to be slow and cautious. With the spells that kept her from dealing with her past now waning, she's left confused, and sometimes angry as she deals with darker impulses. She has only just started to understand empathy and affection, but now that she has... she craves it desperately.

In her spare time, she tends seek out small-time challenges. This can be snatching food from a cart, or jewelry from a vendor. Some might mistake this for a form of kleptomania, but often times she sells the things she steals, or keeps them as reminders of places she's been. It's like having 'touchstones' to keep the past alive. After losing her memories once, she doesn't want to risk forgetting those who have become important.

Hati's goals have changed, though. Where she once sought only to find her lost master and further the influence of the Heartless, she now has a new challenge: resisting the darkness. As her memories return, more of her true self comes with it, and it comes with the realization of just how close she stands to the edge of becoming nothing more than a fiend. The problem is, she still hasn't figured out what she really wants.

Legend of the Sky Wolves

The following is a short story/dream sequence/character development series revolving around Hati and Skoll. This includes their memories, and their beliefs in the mythical figures of the 'White Wolf' and 'Golden Wolf'. For more information, check out the Introduction & OOC Notes area.

Abilities

  • Quick Fingers - Hati is an expert thief, which usually covers the arts of pick-pocketing, lock-picking, and other nefarious sort of skills. She's a master at slight of hand, and is extremely dexterous when in her humanoid form.
  • Wall Dancer - Known in more common circles as 'parkour', Hati is an expert at being able to use her athleticism to move over large areas quite quickly. She can scale buildings by vaulting off of fire escapes, or use impossible hand-holds to swing herself out of the way of danger and slink into narrow spaces.
  • Transformation - Like all of her kind, Hati can transform into a full-fledged wolf form when looking at a reflective surface, or at one of her own kind. Her werewolf form is far less dexterous than her humanoid one, and favors a stubborn, 'stand and fight' sort of mentality rather than her usual quick escapes. Hati's wolf-form appears as a wolf with white undertones, black markings along her back, and silvery guard-hairs.
  • Darkness Control - Hati has spent years training herself on how to use the darkness and anger within her. She has the ability to control most minor Heartless, as well as utilize Dark Portals to get around between the worlds. The way she wields darkness has just become so much part of her that it expresses itself even when she is in combat.
  • Hedge Magic - While Hati has no real skill in what most would consider traditional magic there are some skills that can be trained with practice. She makes use of runes, drawn by her daggers, to focus her own darkness into a physical form during combat. She also possesses a trained ability to scry the locations of others - a skill that she is often called upon to use for darker purposes, but the gift has limits, and requires a dark sacrifice. In addition, she has a knack for natural remedies. While it is nowhere near the potency of standard potions, she can create salves to sooth burns, lower fevers, or treat other more common illnesses.

Relationships

Family

Name Status Thoughts
Odin
(NPC Werewolf) 		Father Hatred. Anger. Her thoughts regarding her father are nothing but a red haze of bloodlust and pain, coupled with a need for revenge.
Serrak
(NPC Shadowlord) 		Mourning Serrak was the Shadow Lord who saved her life and gave her purpose. Once, she owed everything to him, but since his disappearance and death, Hati has been left to wander and discover who she is without his influence. Though he made many mistakes, Hati still believes he had her best interests at heart, and she still sees him as more of a father to her than the one who's blood flows in her veins.
Skoll Ulfang Brother Finding Skoll has given her back many of the memories that Serrak once sealed away in her mind. At first, it had been jealousy and pain, but that has given way to love and trust over time. It still hurts that he never noticed all the things that Odin did to her as a child, but she understands that it isn't his fault. He is her pack, her family, her brother, and that influence has started to bring out the girl she used to be.
Katyna Redsvaren Sister Hati has adopted Katyna as a sort of surrogate sister and best friend. The girl is foolish, willful, and has a tendency to get herself into trouble, but the wolf is fond and protective of her. Even if half of the time her actions make Hati want to face-palm.

Positive

Name Status Thoughts
Avira Respect The VALKYRI leader has shown herself to be quick to judge, but perhaps she is starting to see that things are not always what they seem. Though Hati has never hidden her identity as a former agent of the Shadow Lords, it will be a test of the VALKYRI leader to see how she handles that knowledge know that Skoll let it slip. She isn't sure what to make of the woman's choice to trade with the Lord of the Dead for vanity sake, but time will tell if she manages to hold Hati's respect.
Faruja Senra Something... Once, his heart had been a curiosity. Now, the closer she gets, the more and more unsure Hati becomes. He's already professed his love for her, but she struggles with her own emotions. Is what she feels... love? She is protective of him, wants to be near him, craves his attention, and owes him her life. He makes her feel... strange. Yet, there is still so much about these positive emotions that she doesn't understand.

Neutral

Name Status Thoughts
Reize Seatlan Confused More than once, she has heard that he has a good heart, and she has already begun to see that it's true. He fought with some courage against her, even if it was futile. She is only beginning to understand the strength that he holds in order to lead so many. What is the power of that pendant of his, though? How did it show her the White Wolf? Why does he get flustered when she gets close?
Seith Neutral He faced her in single combat and showed his strength, even if it does not come close to matching her own. He has a 'meddling' nature about her that irritates her at times, and she still holds to the belief that he is emotionally weak and scared to face the truth that: no matter how strong you are, you cannot save people from their fate. She does keep a business relationship with him, if only because having a Shadow Lord, and one with some measure of wisdom, on her side can be useful.

Negative

Name Status Thoughts
Daniil Petrov Cautious This agent of ShinRa asked her far too many questions and expected her to just give up information like some idiot. The attitude irritates her, and if he does come to stand in her way again, he may find himself at the claws of the wolf, instead of in the shallow sea of her patience.
Evja Disappointment One of those things that comes with letting people get closer is the risk that they will someday disappoint or betray you. When it came down to the test of real friendship, the Viera failed. He chose the 'life' of an unsent - an undead creature of destruction, over that of Hati. It is a false sort of neutrality, a far cry from true justice, and the sort of thing that leaves Hati without any reason to place any trust in the Viera. So be it.
