Kudisan

Kudisan, called Kudi by Kamaria, also referred to as the Lady of Snow, was a former ruler of The Pale Ones. She was replaced by her son, Vireka, and as tradition demands, was turned into a Hound for the new Lord.
== Physical Appearance ==
Kudisan strongly resembles her son, but her right paw and shoulder has somewhat heavier red spotting than Vireka's. Her eyes are red rather than his gold, and she wears a Fyre Stone necklace around her neck. Her nose, inner ears, and eyebrows are pale brown and her cheek fur spikes up instead of drooping down. She wears bronze armor all about her body, including a mask, and owns a black crown.
===Hound===
As a hound, Kudisan is large and muscular like any of her species, but keeps her white pelt and bloody red right paw.
== Personality ==
In contrast with her beautiful appearance, Kudisan's personality is absolutely nasty. She is disrespectful, spoiled, petty, selfish and very cruel as shown when she turns her father into a hound and then sends him after Kamaria, his own daughter and her half-sister. She passes these traits onto her son, though Vireka is arguably a lot worse than she is.
It is revealed, however, that while she was much the same in childhood, it was all an act. Despite her stinging words, she did consider Kamaria her only friend and does love and trust her father to an extent. All her deplorable acts are done out of rage and intense bursts of emotions. They're not meticulous and casual, until the situation with Jumoke happens. Somewhere between there and the birth of her two sons, she has become mostly empty, only taking pleasure in the absolute authority she held over others and their fear of her. But before, she was capable of happiness, love and even forgiveness.
==Information==
=== In "The Forges of Dawn" ===
Kudisan has long being deposed before TFoD. Instead of retiring peacefully, Vireka turns her into a Hound, as she once did her sire before her, and uses her as a mount when he tries to chase down Uhuru. She is also present -- as a Hound -- towards the end of the book, although her son kills her as he readies his fyre for Uru.
==Magic==
*Transmogrification
*ColdFyre manipulation.
*Dominant Magic Unknown.
==Trivia==
*Likely only when she's out of earshot, Kudisan calls Kamaria "'Mari" as a nickname.
*In return, Kamaria -- more out of an intent to annoy than anything -- calls Kudisan "Kudi".
