Eyes: Chocolate Brown
In wolf form, Shay is on the slightly small side, standing just about 3 feet at the shoulder, and barely over 4 feet tip to tail, oft times being mistaken more for a domestic canine rather than a feral wolf. her fur is a deep charcoal color that seems to have shades of mahogany threaded throughout. Her eyes become an almost pale glowing amber, rimmed with black. Personality: Shay is the ultimate in perkiness. Sweet, kind and believe it or not... SHY! She is your typical southern belle, with the sexy southern drawl and everything. She often pretends to be quite ditsy, but she is far from it. She just tends to hide her intelligence, figuring the less people know the real Shay, the better. She has a very easy going nature without an ounce of dominance in her nature.Very innocent and naive. Prefers to rely on others for protection. Especially if they are male and cute! History: Shay was born and raised in Charleston, SC, the pampered, and well loved daughter of a rich and influential lawyer, and his society wife. When she was 16 years old, Shay's parents were killed in a horrible car crash on the way home from a society gala, by a drunk driver. Their best friends, who would have become Shay's guardians were also killed in the crash, so Shay fell under the guardianship of a distant relative of her father's, Foster Carrington, a successful conman and theif. As her guardian, Foster was also the trustee of her parent's estate, and overseer of her inheritance. With the help of his nefarious business acquaintances, Foster managed to drain her trust nearly dry, and disappeared with all but a pittance of her 20 million dollar inheritance, mere weeks before she turned 18, and would come into her money. Foster had always been mean and nasty to her, so she was not sorry to see him go, even if it meant she was penniless. What was left of her inheritance went to pay the bills Foster had wracked up in her name. She ended up moving in with her boyfriend, who she met through a school friend, as he was her friend's older brother. Jared was a wolf, serving as Haiti of the local pack. She started waitressing, and worked her way through college, getting by mostly on scholarships. She never could decide on a major, as she was split between business management, and history, but it didn't matter, as she never graduated. She spent 3 years with Jared, who loved and protected her, until he was killed during a pack dominance challenge. That same night, she was brutally raped and beaten by the same wolf who killed Jared, since he was no longer around to protect her. A good Samaritan discovered her beside the road, and rushed her to medical care. As soon as she had healed, she packed what little belongings she had, and hit the road, afraid he would come after her again. It wasn't until the next full moon, that she realised the ramifications of the attack. A few days before hand, she had started feeling strange, and had actually gone to a doctor in Atlanta, who recognized the signs, drew blood, which tested positive for lycanthropy. The doctor was able to put her in touch with were group that helped newbies through their first changes, and to adjust to the disease. Once she felt comfortable, with her fate, or as comfortable as one in such a situation could be, she moved on, still not having enough distance between herself and Charleston. Eventually, Shay found herself in New Orlean's, which is where her mother's family was from originally. Having always loved the city, she decided it was as good a spot as any to try and make a life. Strengths: Shay has the average were abilities. Heightened sense of hearing, above average strength (well compared to a human anyway), and the ability to heal much quicker than humans. One thing she is not quite so average in is that, when in wolf form, her speed is amazingly fast, Weaknesses: Men. Shay is way too easy going, even after all she has been through. She would end up way too submissive in the wrong hands. She has no special weapon talent. Shay really isn't much of a fighter, even in defense. Something she recognizes, and hopes to work on. She alone could set back the women's movement 100 years. definitely a lover type, not a fighter. Quirks: Just looking for her Prince Charming to come love and protect her, which certainly makes her more susceptible to the charming men of the preternatural world. She adores Betty Boop, as well as the color pink. She has a penchant for romance books, and frilly things. Other:
