Sundaze ~ Deceased character
(Third Generation, 870-1130) -- female, silver-grey hair, gold eyes. Chiefly a tracker, but was also fascinated by food, a brewer, cook and relentless experimenter with ingredients and flavors.

Mellow and easy-mannered, very centred and relaxed in the Now, very Zen. Could drive even the most determined prankster mad with her good humour and ability to shrug off humiliation. A straightforward sort who often got lost if too much talk was going on, she knew that she wasn't the sharpest arrow in the quiver and was content as a follower leading as easy a life as she could manage.

Sometimes it was not really clear if she meant what she said, or if she was joking, when she threw subtle sarcasm in the mix. She was convinced that the way of the wolfriders and living in the "Now" were the best ways to live. She rather preferred to hunt than to stay home and play guard; she loved the excitement and chase. Somewhat of a thrill-seeker and was always up for a dare. Loved jewelry. Very skilled with the whip and axe, but hunted with a spear, too. Never Recognized or reproduced. Daughter of Thistle and Sentry, sister of Ice and Turtle. Bio picture by: Linda A. | |
