Name – Kalima Noir
Title –White Fang
Alignment – Kalima is neither good nor evil, she is natural, she does not believe in taking sides, but hovers more along the lines of she believes in what she believes.
Race –Anthro/ Elf
Typically and Anthro is a being who takes on the form of a half human half animal. In Kalima’s case this is of a wolf. An anthro has many tales of how it came into being; Kalima’s was one to talk about. Her father having been bitten by a werewolf when he was younger meant that he took on the same history. Her father then fell in love with a female elf and together they brought upon the birth of Kalima: A Lupine anthro.
Kalima’s particular species has the build of a human, but the characteristics of a wolf, that being a pair of wolf like ears, the piercing eyes surrounded by a dark frame, claws, a tail sprouting from the lower back and sharp canines. This will be described in more detail in the appearance section.
Gender – Female
Age – 23, Kalima (even though she is part canine and part elf) is measured in human years because of her tendency to age physically as a human does.
Appearance – Kalima’s appearance is very compatible with her fragile name. She is tall and slender, with little to no muscle (which isn’t much of a loss for her because it is profitable for her agile nature), this is down to her mother’s racial traits, female elves were never known for their bulky figures and were always knows for their fragile and intoxicating beauty. Her skin is snow white, but not deathly so, in fact it adds to her beauty, but from afar many would think her to be a spirit or something otherworldly. Her eyes are a piercing sapphire colour, as deep as the ocean, these in turn are narrowed and surrounded by black, much like that of a wolfs. Slender strands of dark brown hair, specked with white fall like a curtain of silk to cover the haunting eyes, but most is kept at bay by a thick strand material of white material wrapped tightly around her forehead. Her hair however is not completely straight, it lays in a scrupled mass atop her head, jutting out in all manner of directions, the only straightness it has to it in fact, are the strands just behind her ears.

Accompanying her mother’s trademark pointed ears are another set, only these are a set of pure, white wolf’s ears, laying completely in contrast with her long, sleek black hair. The ears are somewhat fluffy and mussed, but have a soft. Clean feel to them. Her mouth is home to two razor sharp canines, only present to the top row of her teeth, these fangs could easily draw blood without the slightest effort on Kalima’s part and many could fall prey to her sharp fangs and quick reflexes. Another thing to note about her facial appearance are the two sets of red painted lines on each cheek, to Kalima’s clan, these are a sign of a true and dedicated warrior.
<o></o>
<o></o>
Kalima’s other racial traits are the scruffy looking white tail that juts out from her lower back and the clean claws that fit the tops of both her fingers and her toes, there are even places, such as her ankles, her elbows and the back of her neck in which tuffs of white fur poke out from her skin, giving Kalima’s clearly beautiful appearance a slight edge to it.
Another thing to note about Kalima’s appearance is the black, tribal tattoo that runs from her right thigh, all the way up to the left hand side of her neck. This is something Kali was born with, it was not given to her by anyone, so really speaking calling it a tattoo would be wrong, this is more of a birthmark to Kali.
Attire – Kalima wears a traditional martial arts outfit with her own unique touches. It consists of a white, short sleeved top (in which the top two buttons are always undone) and a pair of loose fitting three-quarter length black trousers. Across her chest she has thrown a brown leather belt with a gold buckle which holds a great, brown sheath which holds her katana in place. Around her waste is a matching brown leather belt, like the one thrown around her chest. The outfit isn’t very flattering, but Kalima does not care, it is not relevant to how well one does in battle. But for casual time’s she does wear a white strap top underneath the long sleeved top, which is flattering to her upper body and is especially cool when in the summer days.
The bottom of her legs are wrapped in the same white material as is around her forehead and upon her feet she wears nothing but the same white material so that she is not held down by any sort of weight at the bottom of her body, though when not in battle, she does carry a pair of brown, clumpy boots which are held by a thick strand of string to the belt around her waist, just in case it comes the time to cross mountainous paths, the boots however have small holes in the front to allow her claws to poke through freely.
Like the bottoms of her legs, her forearms are also wrapped in material, only this time they are not white but black and finish off in a pair of tight fitting brown gloves, wearing these gloves does protect her knuckles from harsh blows, but her punches are not as effective when they are in this state. Like the boots, these also have holes in them for her claws to be set free, leading to more of a blow. Around her neck is a beautiful elven charm made of silver and shaped like a leaf, this was a gift from her mother to her and she wears it always.
Personality – Kali was never much of a people person, always brushing up on her skills, never having time to socialize with others, too concentrated on getting her martial arts skills in top condition. The only one she treated with any sort of respect was her sensei. She spoke with him about her problems and was very open to him only; she remained closed to everyone else around her after leaving her parents. What was once a fun loving young child was transformed into an ice cold sculpture of a woman and because of this many people don’t know what to make of her. Kali always puts her duty before anything else, including her life, to her putting her life in danger for a mission is no problem at all and to many it seems that she would even put the lives of others after her duty.<o></o>
But Kali was not raised so harshly. She was taught to always put her duty first, but her first duty would be to protect the innocent souls around her, including that of wildlife, because of her anthro nature, the only place she feels safe and wanted is in the enclosure of the wilderness, if Kali were trying to rid her mind of something, it would certainly be done in the warm embrace of the wilderness. Kali may seem heartless and stone cold, but she does have a warm heart and emotions. In fact there is not a day that passes that Kali does not think of her parents and her little brother. She may not show much emotion to anyone else, but to the right people or when she is left alone, Kali can come across as a very confused and lonely young woman, she has tried desperately to find her parents and has not come close to anyone in case she has to lose them too. What Kali needs is for someone to share her pain and be there for her, but she has not found anyone yet who has wanted to even attempt to getting close to her.
Kali is a lone wolf and does not do well working as a team, but if it means that the job will be done and she can be on her way, she will put up with anything, but she will not be happy about it. Though very few people have witness it, Kali has been known to smile and laugh, but this is a rare occasion and consider yourself honoured that she will do it genuinely, not in a sarcastic sense as she normally does. By no means is Kali untrustworthy, she will do as told and will gladly put her life in danger for others, but not one person has been brave enough to befriend this one, but Kali is not incapable of being friendly, one just needs to spend the time to get to know her and gain her trust.
First Impression – On first impression, Kali would seem to be ruthless and uncaring of anyone and anything. Completely un-befriendable and cold hearted. One would think that she would put the lives of other in danger to achieve her goal and even go as far as murdering someone in the process if need be. She seems to be a character no one would dare get close to her in case they mix with the wrong crowd. Her appearance does not help one bit either, her rather roughish and flustered appearance would drive off the toughest of character. She travels alone and asks for help off of no one, she is a character that young kids would find to be ‘cool’ in her own weird way and would aspire to be like because of her roughish and uncaring attitude, they would even try to talk to her and befriend her, but parents would drag them away and tell them never to get close to her again in fear that she may put them in danger. All in all, Kali is the silent wanderer; she comes and goes without a trace.
Strength – To be honest, strength isn’t really Kali’s forte. She could punch and punch at a wall and it wouldn’t bother her, but the brick wall would only take small punctures, but with the help of her ice abilities, she could shatter it in no time at all. But overall, her knuckles are made for slashing, not punching. On the other hand, she has mastered the art of lifting a human being, but this is not down to her strength alone, but also her skill. All in all, Kali is of average strength. Unlike the brick wall, Kali’s strength would do a fair amount of damage to an enemy character, her strength may not be over whelming, but she can throw a punch, for example: If a characters health were at 500, she could easily take 100 per punch.
Speed – This is Kalima’s major strong point, she may not be much in strength, but her speed makes up for it. Kali can side step fast and can keep throwing punches while dancing circles around her enemy. Her agile-ness also helps for she can do a number of gymnast moves which makes her even harder to detect, but it is not impossible for her to be caught off guard, one mess up and her streak is over. It may be her strong point, but her speed can be her weakness too.
Endurance – Now this is a mixed bag of tricks. Kalima could easily run for miles without stopping at a fast pace, but ask her to take a full out punch to the face and she would be out cold. She can withstand punches to the arms and legs, but her mid section and her face are her major weaknesses.
Reflexes – This is Kalima’s major advantage in battle, she depends on both her speed and reflexes to work together in order for her battle tactics to work. She is fast with her reflexes and because of her wolf-like nature she can normally detect a creature’s intention just from the mere smell of them. Yes this is Kalima’s greatest strength in battle, but she has been known to be wrong on her judgment of other people’s moves.
Fighting Style –Kalima is an honourable fighter. If an opponent has lost his sword during battle, then she would not fight him until it was returned to his/her hand. She is fair and would have it no other way. On the other hand, if an enemy cowers before her, pleading for his/her life, she will be disgusted and either spare they’re pathetic lives if she considers them to be no threat or would slay them on the spot to rid the world of a pathetic warrior.
Human form: As a human, Kali uses her speed and quick reflexes to thrash the opponent. For example her fast speedy punches would amount to one singular punch from a man that depends on his strength, so all in all Kalima isn’t loosing anything by depending on speed over strength. She normally fights with a hunched approached, making her more prepared to roll out of the way or even making her less likely to be hit by a high attack. She fights as though she were a four legged animal, clawed hands touching the floor and legs spread wide for more balance. She will either result in using the Katana by throwing it over her shoulder using one hand to hold the weapon and the other to balance on the ground. Her other approach is to use her claws for an even faster approach, though her Katana gives off more of a punch in damage, Kalima can move quicker when she relies on her claws. She concentrates on confusing her enemy with fast movements before going in for the killing blow.
Wolf form: In her Wolf form Kali is more reliant on her speed than ever. Because of her incapability to stand on two legs, she circles the enemy and tries her hardest to land a killing blow on one of the most harmful spots on the body. For example, Kali could easily use her claws and jaws to fight hastily with the opponent, but by confusing the enemy and concentrating enough, Kali has more of a chance to find a killing point on a creatures body to lung for and finish them off in one move, but this does take time and is not really trustworthy as it has a high failing ratio.
Weapons – Silver Fang: This is Kailima’s most prized possession, a sleek, smooth Katana made of the finest silver. It is about three-quarter’s of Kalima’s body length and is as light as a feather, which also makes it fragile if used in an uncaring matter. The blade was designed to slice through enemy flesh gracefully without much force; the blade is sharpened enough so that Kalima does not have to use much force to be able to use her weapon. The silver blade is encrusted with sapphire, curving its way up the body of the sword to the hilt. The hilt is then made out of sturdy black leather which is encrusted with one singular sapphire in the centre. The history of this blade is a simple one; it was made for her by a friend of her senseis to fit Kalima’s character perfectly. The Sapphires were taken from a rare stone found in the mountainous regions of the snow lands of Avalon, Kalima herself was sent to get this stone as a test of courage and strength, but little did she know that the sapphire would be used to make the weapon she would be attached to for the rest of her life.
Armour – Kali does not were armour as it will only slow her down and ruin her only chance of success in battle.
Abilities –
Human: Spirit of the Wolf: Kali claps her hands together and does some form of hand signs before a mystical blue air rotates around her and she calls out ‘Spirit of the wolf’. This ability ups Kalima’s stats by mixing both her human and wolf spirit into one. In this mental form, Kalima can move faster, strike quicker and deal more of a blow. The only downfall to this ability is the fact that she could probably only use it once or twice per day without rest and it drains quarter of her energy. The average running time for this ability is about half an hour before it starts to drain.
<o></o>
During this stage, Kalima’s canines grow extraordinarily so that they poke from below her upper lip, her claws grow and thicken and Kalima’s eyes completely turn white, she attacks and runs on all fours like a canine would. This skill also alous Kalima to run up walls and trees using her heightened speed and claws.
Sixth Sense: By closing her eyes and concentrating, Kailma’s eyes glaze over with a haunting mist and when she opens them, Kali can see through a humans skin as if she were an x-ray machine, she can see all the vulnerable points of an enemy’s physique giving her that extra edge in battle, the only thing standing between her and her goal is the enemy character.<o></o>
Heightened Senses: This comes naturally to Kalima through both her father’s and her mother’s blood. Because of her canine and elven connection Kalima can see, hear and smell things no ordinary human can.

<o></o>
Waning Moon: Like her human form’s ‘spirit of the wolf’, Kali gains a heightened status level by howling up at the moon. In turn if it is day, it turns to night until her power is used up. She gains extra speed, strength and reflex in this form. Like her human form though, it can only be used once or twice without rest and only lasts about half an hour.
Magic –Kali uses the power of ice as her chosen element.
Temperature drop: Kali can make the temperature drop in order to make her magical powers more effective. But because Kalima has not fully mastered her powers this is difficult if she were in the middle of the desert or in blazing heat. Depending on the temperate at the time, this could take up little to all of Kali’s energy. If this is coupled by Kali’s Waning moon or spirit of the wolf, she is more capable to be able to lower the temperature drastically.
Icicle Scare: When in cold weather, Kalima can manipulate the temperature and the wind to form icicles that she can use against her enemies.
Snow/Ice surf: Kalima can create a path of ice or snow so that she is able to surf on it, making her speed increase tenfold.
Bitter veil: Depending on the temperature, Kali can create a veil of ice or snow that can protect her from attacks, but like all of her other skills, it depends on how cold the temperature. If it is too hot, the veil will be weak and it will drain a lot of Kali’s energy.
Weapon Corruption: Simple enough, Kali can transfer her ice power into her weapon. Because ice flows through her, this can be a permanent thing, but the weapon would be less effective in hot weather unless Kali can drop the temperature. This also works with her jaws and claws.
Wisp of air: Kali can manipulate the temperature to turn wind into ice, so if the wind is fast and hard, Kali can use the gusts of air to turn into ice and cut through an enemy.
Wolf heart: In her wolf form, Kali has much better control over her abilities and is always accompanied by an eerie cold wind. This is the heart of the wolf.
NOTE: Her abilities (apart from weapon corruption) depend on her temperature drop ability. If Kali cannot decrease the temperature enough, then her magic is pointless). This fact is even more so when Kali is in her human form.
Other Skills –Transformation: Kali, being an anthro, can transform into her wolf form. It comes naturally, but her fighting skills are weaker. In this form Kali takes on the form of a roughish looking wolf. Light blue in colour wish deep Sapphire eyes. The wolf has the same curved carving of Kalima’s sword running along its body and looks to be quite serine and friendly, or at least looks as if it could not be any trouble, but when it is angry it will sharply turn from being a serine looking canine to a menacing hell hound.
History –
Kali’s ‘life’ began when she was six. Before this age, Kali had lived her life as any normal child would...well partially normal child. She had grown up in the snow lands of Avalon, a small plane of snow land completely surrounded with high mountains and snowy forests. She was home schooled by her mother, an elven woman from the forests of Malowind which lay far, far to the south of where she lived now. After she had fallen in love with a werewolf from the same forest, Deity fled from the forest, giving up her life to be able to be with the one she loved. You see if you were born an elf in the land of Malowind, you were not allowed to leave or else you would lose your immortality. But Deity had a baby on the way and she could not bear living a life of secrets around her people. The pair fled far, through many villages and overcame many hardships. Kali’s mother had given birth to her along the way in an inn they had passed in a small village towards the centre of the land called Linderdale. The land was home to a small village of people who lived in the shadows of grand city to the west, not far from where they’re humble village lay. Frederic, Kali’s father, swore to them that he would return one day with an army of many to save them. The village elder mearly shook his head and lay a hand on his shoulder, instructing him to forget of the place and live life as well as they could with they’re new born child. The family left the sorrowful people to they’re mere existence, but till this day Frederic has not forgotten them.
Months past until the family reached a land far from home. A small village at the very bottom of a huge mountain, this was Avalon. Here they raised they’re anthro child who in time had become one with the ice around her. At the age of three, Kali let out a small sneeze which in turn turned to ice and from that day onwards, the couple knew that they’re child was destined for much greater things. They did not know what, but they’re child was not normal...but for the time being they treated her as any other. Kali played with the kids her age, learned of many myths and legends and grew to become an intelligent child who was one with nature. For her remaining three years she would wander from the village and climb a small part of the mountains, greeting animals and catching fish in the river that flowed down its centre without a fishing rod. The girl was wondrous, but was treated no differently to anyone else. Once a month her mother and herself were forced to lock her father in the basement for his transformation. Kali remembered crying every time over the awful sounds her father made, but her mother would hold her tight and promised her that her father would be back in no time at all, and to this the tears would stop flowing.
Yes, until the age of six her life was peaceful and meaningless, this was until one fateful morning a shadow walked down over the top of the mountain tops, shrouded in a shawl of material to hide his features from the cold. The figure used his cane to knock on the door of the quaint family and to this young Kali answered, looking up at the figure with confusion in her eyes. It wasn’t before he asked if her parents were there, that Kali’s ears perked and she ran off in side in search of her parents. They immediately invited the stranger in to escape the harsh cold and to this the man was eternally grateful. You see, the man could have easily had been a thief or worse, but Deity and Frederic were too kind to say no. Fortunately, the man was the complete opposite. He was a monk from the mountains who had heard tell tale that a creature of magic lived in the very village. You see even though the land is one of myths, legends and magic, it is very rare for one to come across a human (or half-breed) that could use magic, in fact it was a legend in itself.
He explained that the elder had been in touch with him by means of an eagle. The monk had travelled far over the mountain tops in search of this young magic user and wished to take her away so that he could train her in becoming more in tune with her abilities. Kali’s parents knew that one day something would cross they’re paths that would lead to them loosing Kali, but never did they think it would be this soon. But never the less there was little they could do, after all they were not one with magic so they could not teach her and if she did not learn, there was always a chance that her magic could destroy her one day by over powering her if she could not control it. They accepted and Kalima was given the day to bid farewell to her parents and after many tears, the young girl and the monk set off across the harsh mountains towards a temple in which Kali would learn to harness her skills and fight for what she thought was right.
The harsh mountainous range was her first test, it was hard for one so young to overcome the cold and the young one found herself riding atop the man’s shoulders for a great deal of time, but he explained that when she had mastered her abilities, she could control even this bitter coldness. Upon arrival at the temple, Kali saw that it was not just her who had been summoned here, there was a mass of students. She had though magic was rare, but there were so many students! Her sensei explained that even though there were allot of people here, it was nothing compared to the millions of other people in the world. This was only a handful compared to that. Kali only rumpled her nose. The temple had trained many magic users, some much older and in tune with their abilities to her, but the monk explained that Kali was different, many of the pupils here did not possess such great opportunity as her, for Kali had other skills and abilities ready to be discovered.
Many years of hard training passed and Kali still remembers the first time she had been able to conjure an icicle in broad day light and still remembers her first transformation from human to wolf. She was not eighteen and she sat before the monk elders waiting to go on a mission that would determine if she was ready to go out on her own or not. She had accumulated to being the top student in the temple because of her unique heritage. Her ability to go from human to wolf was outstanding and her speed surpassed anyone’s. But this was a test of maturity and skill. She was to go back to her home village and find a special rock in the mountains of Avalon that was encrusted with Sapphires. Her heart leapt into her throat, she was to go back home? But her parents wouldn’t know her in this form! But...she would get to see them again. She had little choice but to accept and the day after her kit was packed and she was making her way over the harsh mountains like she had done those may years ago. From the peak she could see the outline of her village, but first she was to gather the stone. Treading deep into the mountains, she found a cave glowing blue. Completely awe struck by its beauty, she did not realise the shadow creep up on her from the depths. She only just missed the gapping jaws of a sapphire snake that had slyly made its way upon her in hopes of a tasty snack. As quickly as she could, Kali dub into her pocket and retrieve a knife. Closing her eyes and concentrating she could see the vulnerable spots on the snakes body and with one quick and flawless move, she jabbed the snake just under its jaw line, paralyzing it. It seemed the snake was only protecting the Sapphires. Kali took pity on the creature and let it be. The effect would wear out soon enough and so she quickly gathered the rocks and made her way out.
Looking down from above, the village was closer than ever. But she could not bear it. For her parents to look at her will unfamiliar eyes, she bravely turned her back on her past and hiked over the snowy mountains once again, back to her future.

She travels alone and asks for help off of no one, she is a character that young kids would find to be ‘cool’ in her own weird way and would aspire to be like because of her roughish and uncaring attitude, they would even try to talk to her and befriend her, but parents would drag them away and tell them never to get close to her again in fear that she may put them in danger. All in all, Kali is the silent wanderer; she comes and goes without a trace.
Strength – To be honest, strength isn’t really Kali’s forte. She could punch and punch at a wall and it wouldn’t bother her, but the brick wall would only take small punctures, but with the help of her ice abilities, she could shatter it in no time at all. But overall, her knuckles are made for slashing, not punching. On the other hand, she has mastered the art of lifting a human being, but this is not down to her strength alone, but also her skill. All in all, Kali is of average strength. Unlike the brick wall, Kali’s strength would do a fair amount of damage to an enemy character, her strength may not be over whelming, but she can throw a punch, for example: If a characters health were at 500, she could easily take 100 per punch.
Speed – This is Kalima’s major strong point, she may not be much in strength, but her speed makes up for it. Kali can side step fast and can keep throwing punches while dancing circles around her enemy. Her agile-ness also helps for she can do a number of gymnast moves which makes her even harder to detect, but it is not impossible for her to be caught off guard, one mess up and her streak is over. It may be her strong point, but her speed can be her weakness too.
Endurance – Now this is a mixed bag of tricks. Kalima could easily run for miles without stopping at a fast pace, but ask her to take a full out punch to the face and she would be out cold. She can withstand punches to the arms and legs, but her mid section and her face are her major weaknesses.
Reflexes – This is Kalima’s major advantage in battle, she depends on both her speed and reflexes to work together in order for her battle tactics to work. She is fast with her reflexes and because of her wolf-like nature she can normally detect a creature’s intention just from the mere smell of them. Yes this is Kalima’s greatest strength in battle, but she has been known to be wrong on her judgment of other people’s moves.
Fighting Style –Kalima is an honourable fighter. If an opponent has lost his sword during battle, then she would not fight him until it was returned to his/her hand. She is fair and would have it no other way. On the other hand, if an enemy cowers before her, pleading for his/her life, she will be disgusted and either spare they’re pathetic lives if she considers them to be no threat or would slay them on the spot to rid the world of a pathetic warrior.
Human form: As a human, Kali uses her speed and quick reflexes to thrash the opponent. For example her fast speedy punches would amount to one singular punch from a man that depends on his strength, so all in all Kalima isn’t loosing anything by depending on speed over strength. She normally fights with a hunched approached, making her more prepared to roll out of the way or even making her less likely to be hit by a high attack. She fights as though she were a four legged animal, clawed hands touching the floor and legs spread wide for more balance. She will either result in using the Katana by throwing it over her shoulder using one hand to hold the weapon and the other to balance on the ground. Her other approach is to use her claws for an even faster approach, though her Katana gives off more of a punch in damage, Kalima can move quicker when she relies on her claws. She concentrates on confusing her enemy with fast movements before going in for the killing blow.
Wolf form: In her Wolf form Kali is more reliant on her speed than ever. Because of her incapability to stand on two legs, she circles the enemy and tries her hardest to land a killing blow on one of the most harmful spots on the body. For example, Kali could easily use her claws and jaws to fight hastily with the opponent, but by confusing the enemy and concentrating enough, Kali has more of a chance to find a killing point on a creatures body to lung for and finish them off in one move, but this does take time and is not really trustworthy as it has a high failing ratio.
Weapons – Silver Fang: This is Kailima’s most prized possession, a sleek, smooth Katana made of the finest silver. It is about three-quarter’s of Kalima’s body length and is as light as a feather, which also makes it fragile if used in an uncaring matter. The blade was designed to slice through enemy flesh gracefully without much force; the blade is sharpened enough so that Kalima does not have to use much force to be able to use her weapon. The silver blade is encrusted with sapphire, curving its way up the body of the sword to the hilt. The hilt is then made out of sturdy black leather which is encrusted with one singular sapphire in the centre. The history of this blade is a simple one; it was made for her by a friend of her senseis to fit Kalima’s character perfectly. The Sapphires were taken from a rare stone found in the mountainous regions of the snow lands of Avalon, Kalima herself was sent to get this stone as a test of courage and strength, but little did she know that the sapphire would be used to make the weapon she would be attached to for the rest of her life.
Armour – Kali does not were armour as it will only slow her down and ruin her only chance of success in battle.
Abilities –
Human: Spirit of the Wolf: Kali claps her hands together and does some form of hand signs before a mystical blue air rotates around her and she calls out ‘Spirit of the wolf’. This ability ups Kalima’s stats by mixing both her human and wolf spirit into one. In this mental form, Kalima can move faster, strike quicker and deal more of a blow. The only downfall to this ability is the fact that she could probably only use it once or twice per day without rest and it drains quarter of her energy. The average running time for this ability is about half an hour before it starts to drain.
<o
></o>During this stage, Kalima’s canines grow extraordinarily so that they poke from below her upper lip, her claws grow and thicken and Kalima’s eyes completely turn white, she attacks and runs on all fours like a canine would. This skill also alous Kalima to run up walls and trees using her heightened speed and claws.
Sixth Sense: By closing her eyes and concentrating, Kailma’s eyes glaze over with a haunting mist and when she opens them, Kali can see through a humans skin as if she were an x-ray machine, she can see all the vulnerable points of an enemy’s physique giving her that extra edge in battle, the only thing standing between her and her goal is the enemy character.<o
></o>Heightened Senses: This comes naturally to Kalima through both her father’s and her mother’s blood. Because of her canine and elven connection Kalima can see, hear and smell things no ordinary human can.

></o>Waning Moon: Like her human form’s ‘spirit of the wolf’, Kali gains a heightened status level by howling up at the moon. In turn if it is day, it turns to night until her power is used up. She gains extra speed, strength and reflex in this form. Like her human form though, it can only be used once or twice without rest and only lasts about half an hour.
Magic –Kali uses the power of ice as her chosen element.
Temperature drop: Kali can make the temperature drop in order to make her magical powers more effective. But because Kalima has not fully mastered her powers this is difficult if she were in the middle of the desert or in blazing heat. Depending on the temperate at the time, this could take up little to all of Kali’s energy. If this is coupled by Kali’s Waning moon or spirit of the wolf, she is more capable to be able to lower the temperature drastically.
Icicle Scare: When in cold weather, Kalima can manipulate the temperature and the wind to form icicles that she can use against her enemies.
Snow/Ice surf: Kalima can create a path of ice or snow so that she is able to surf on it, making her speed increase tenfold.
Bitter veil: Depending on the temperature, Kali can create a veil of ice or snow that can protect her from attacks, but like all of her other skills, it depends on how cold the temperature. If it is too hot, the veil will be weak and it will drain a lot of Kali’s energy.
Weapon Corruption: Simple enough, Kali can transfer her ice power into her weapon. Because ice flows through her, this can be a permanent thing, but the weapon would be less effective in hot weather unless Kali can drop the temperature. This also works with her jaws and claws.
Wisp of air: Kali can manipulate the temperature to turn wind into ice, so if the wind is fast and hard, Kali can use the gusts of air to turn into ice and cut through an enemy.
Wolf heart: In her wolf form, Kali has much better control over her abilities and is always accompanied by an eerie cold wind. This is the heart of the wolf.
NOTE: Her abilities (apart from weapon corruption) depend on her temperature drop ability. If Kali cannot decrease the temperature enough, then her magic is pointless). This fact is even more so when Kali is in her human form.
Other Skills –Transformation: Kali, being an anthro, can transform into her wolf form. It comes naturally, but her fighting skills are weaker. In this form Kali takes on the form of a roughish looking wolf. Light blue in colour wish deep Sapphire eyes. The wolf has the same curved carving of Kalima’s sword running along its body and looks to be quite serine and friendly, or at least looks as if it could not be any trouble, but when it is angry it will sharply turn from being a serine looking canine to a menacing hell hound.
History –
Kali’s ‘life’ began when she was six. Before this age, Kali had lived her life as any normal child would...well partially normal child. She had grown up in the snow lands of Avalon, a small plane of snow land completely surrounded with high mountains and snowy forests. She was home schooled by her mother, an elven woman from the forests of Malowind which lay far, far to the south of where she lived now. After she had fallen in love with a werewolf from the same forest, Deity fled from the forest, giving up her life to be able to be with the one she loved. You see if you were born an elf in the land of Malowind, you were not allowed to leave or else you would lose your immortality. But Deity had a baby on the way and she could not bear living a life of secrets around her people. The pair fled far, through many villages and overcame many hardships. Kali’s mother had given birth to her along the way in an inn they had passed in a small village towards the centre of the land called Linderdale. The land was home to a small village of people who lived in the shadows of grand city to the west, not far from where they’re humble village lay. Frederic, Kali’s father, swore to them that he would return one day with an army of many to save them. The village elder mearly shook his head and lay a hand on his shoulder, instructing him to forget of the place and live life as well as they could with they’re new born child. The family left the sorrowful people to they’re mere existence, but till this day Frederic has not forgotten them.
Months past until the family reached a land far from home. A small village at the very bottom of a huge mountain, this was Avalon. Here they raised they’re anthro child who in time had become one with the ice around her. At the age of three, Kali let out a small sneeze which in turn turned to ice and from that day onwards, the couple knew that they’re child was destined for much greater things. They did not know what, but they’re child was not normal...but for the time being they treated her as any other. Kali played with the kids her age, learned of many myths and legends and grew to become an intelligent child who was one with nature. For her remaining three years she would wander from the village and climb a small part of the mountains, greeting animals and catching fish in the river that flowed down its centre without a fishing rod. The girl was wondrous, but was treated no differently to anyone else. Once a month her mother and herself were forced to lock her father in the basement for his transformation. Kali remembered crying every time over the awful sounds her father made, but her mother would hold her tight and promised her that her father would be back in no time at all, and to this the tears would stop flowing.
Yes, until the age of six her life was peaceful and meaningless, this was until one fateful morning a shadow walked down over the top of the mountain tops, shrouded in a shawl of material to hide his features from the cold. The figure used his cane to knock on the door of the quaint family and to this young Kali answered, looking up at the figure with confusion in her eyes. It wasn’t before he asked if her parents were there, that Kali’s ears perked and she ran off in side in search of her parents. They immediately invited the stranger in to escape the harsh cold and to this the man was eternally grateful. You see, the man could have easily had been a thief or worse, but Deity and Frederic were too kind to say no. Fortunately, the man was the complete opposite. He was a monk from the mountains who had heard tell tale that a creature of magic lived in the very village. You see even though the land is one of myths, legends and magic, it is very rare for one to come across a human (or half-breed) that could use magic, in fact it was a legend in itself.
He explained that the elder had been in touch with him by means of an eagle. The monk had travelled far over the mountain tops in search of this young magic user and wished to take her away so that he could train her in becoming more in tune with her abilities. Kali’s parents knew that one day something would cross they’re paths that would lead to them loosing Kali, but never did they think it would be this soon. But never the less there was little they could do, after all they were not one with magic so they could not teach her and if she did not learn, there was always a chance that her magic could destroy her one day by over powering her if she could not control it. They accepted and Kalima was given the day to bid farewell to her parents and after many tears, the young girl and the monk set off across the harsh mountains towards a temple in which Kali would learn to harness her skills and fight for what she thought was right.
The harsh mountainous range was her first test, it was hard for one so young to overcome the cold and the young one found herself riding atop the man’s shoulders for a great deal of time, but he explained that when she had mastered her abilities, she could control even this bitter coldness. Upon arrival at the temple, Kali saw that it was not just her who had been summoned here, there was a mass of students. She had though magic was rare, but there were so many students! Her sensei explained that even though there were allot of people here, it was nothing compared to the millions of other people in the world. This was only a handful compared to that. Kali only rumpled her nose. The temple had trained many magic users, some much older and in tune with their abilities to her, but the monk explained that Kali was different, many of the pupils here did not possess such great opportunity as her, for Kali had other skills and abilities ready to be discovered.
Many years of hard training passed and Kali still remembers the first time she had been able to conjure an icicle in broad day light and still remembers her first transformation from human to wolf. She was not eighteen and she sat before the monk elders waiting to go on a mission that would determine if she was ready to go out on her own or not. She had accumulated to being the top student in the temple because of her unique heritage. Her ability to go from human to wolf was outstanding and her speed surpassed anyone’s. But this was a test of maturity and skill. She was to go back to her home village and find a special rock in the mountains of Avalon that was encrusted with Sapphires. Her heart leapt into her throat, she was to go back home? But her parents wouldn’t know her in this form! But...she would get to see them again. She had little choice but to accept and the day after her kit was packed and she was making her way over the harsh mountains like she had done those may years ago. From the peak she could see the outline of her village, but first she was to gather the stone. Treading deep into the mountains, she found a cave glowing blue. Completely awe struck by its beauty, she did not realise the shadow creep up on her from the depths. She only just missed the gapping jaws of a sapphire snake that had slyly made its way upon her in hopes of a tasty snack. As quickly as she could, Kali dub into her pocket and retrieve a knife. Closing her eyes and concentrating she could see the vulnerable spots on the snakes body and with one quick and flawless move, she jabbed the snake just under its jaw line, paralyzing it. It seemed the snake was only protecting the Sapphires. Kali took pity on the creature and let it be. The effect would wear out soon enough and so she quickly gathered the rocks and made her way out.
Looking down from above, the village was closer than ever. But she could not bear it. For her parents to look at her will unfamiliar eyes, she bravely turned her back on her past and hiked over the snowy mountains once again, back to her future.
