Chanah Wolfsbane

=== Background ===
Chanah Wolfsbane is the child of Larkai Whitecloud and Surisma Grimtotem. Larkai and Surisma knew that their union was forbidden, so they ran away together. Surisma already had a child when she met Larkai, Chanah's halfsister Myrna.Larkai gladly took Myrna as his own daughter, and together with Surisma he had two children, Chanah and Apecha.Chanah was born in the Barrens, though they lived in Ashenvale a lot of her childhood. It was here Larkai's final stand against the Grimtotem happened. Surisma's brother, Zarnok, had been looking for the lovers for a long time, when he stumbled upon the calf Chanah. He traded information from her for apples. Chanah gladly told him what he needed to know, her young mind never sensing the dangers up a head. Zarnok found Larkai and Surisma. Larkai sent Surisma with Apecha and Myrna away. Telling them to go and that Chanah and he would catch up.Chanah never saw them again... Larkai died defending his family. Chanah was able to hide away, watching the battle from underneath a fallen down tree. She saw her father's final moments, as he lay dying Zarnok set his body on fire. That sight haunted Chanah forever, causing her to have nightmares.After her father's death, Chanah started to wander the lands. Ending up in the Barrens. A band of Tauren males found her and took her in. Years of abusement in form of beatings then followed.One of the males took pity on Chanah and took her with him and escaped. He became Chanah's master and mentor, his name was Vargas Strongbow, the hunter.
=== The Thousand Eyes and The Opened Eyes ===
With Vargas, Chanah now had made her way to Thunder Bluff. Here she met the young female, Sothrana Whitecloud, and they became best friends.A few years later Chanah began her Shaman training. A little while after she met Verdauga, and joined his guild The Thousand Eyes. A shy thing she was, very scared of males and therefor she shyed away. Chanah was there to see the fall of Verduaga and felt his madness as well. Verdauga beated Chanah at some occasion, though Chanah knew that this was no longer her leader, and she remained loyal to him to the very end.In the end her mate, Asaperi had had enough and they fled from The Thousand Eyes and joined The Opened Eyes. Here Chanah blossomed and attained a high rank, as the leader of the Shamans in the guild. Chanah took great pride in her work and was always there to lend a helping hand.
=== Love, broken hearts and hopes ===
Chanah sees herself as a heartbreaker. Everything good seems to go wrong. Every male that has shown interest in her, has been shown away with a broken heart. Chanah does not like to take chances with love, if it don't seem right, it is not right, and she flees as soon as she sense a storm.She broke Oroko's heart when he asked for her hand, leaving him bitter behind. Asaperi was Chanah's first love. And they stayed together in secret for a long time.A while after Chanah met a male, Nakasu Grimtotem, and she fell in love with him. Nakasu promised her something she had always wanted, a family. He asked for her hand and she gladly accepted. She then left Asaperi to join Nakasu's side. Soon after she got pregnant and her heart was filled with joy.But that joy was shortlived. Nakasu changed, his pirate-ways slowly returning. Chanah left him after he raped a Death Knight Tauren, which in the end turned out to be Taiká, Chanah's long lost sister, Myrna. Chanah then returned to Asaperi, her first love. Asaperi was glad to have her back and they stayed together throughout the entire pregnancy.
During Chanah's time with Nakasu she met anoter male, Kragh Grimtotem. In the beginning they barely saw each other, just nodded as they walked by. Bit by bit, he started to talk to her. And in the end he admitted that he had fallen in love with her. This caused jealousy from Nakasu, and he forbid Chanah from seeing Kragh. But Chanah was never the one to listen, and she met Kragh. All they did was talk and fight together, and he soon became her trainer. Nakasu's heart grew black with jealousy and attacked Kragh at numerous occasions. Always forcing Chanah to end the fight and follow Nakasu. In the end she finally mastered to gather enough courage to leave Nakasu. Kragh was there to comfort her and then asked for her heart. Chanah denied him and went back to Asaperi. Seeing Chanah with Asaperi, did not hinder Kragh too much. He was still her trainer.Asaperi disappeard soon after Chanah gave birth, and she found out later on that Asaperi had joined the Crusade to attack Icecrown. Chanah was left heartbroken and with the feeling of being left to fight for herself.Kragh kept on offering Chanah his heart, but she always denied him. In the end she accepted, and they were mates for a short amount of time. But Chanah was shy and did not return his affection. Causing Chanah to end the relationship, only because of something Kragh said about Asaperi. She's alone now, taking care of her calf, Shayah, the light in her life. Shayah is Chanah's biggest joy and secret. Only a few knows about her. Shayah held more of her mother in her than her sire. Her fur just like her mother's, white with spots, but she has her father's eyes, a striking shade of yellow.She's with Vargas most of the time, since Chanah is away fighting or working. Yet Kragh still remains her trainer.
=== Leaving the Eyes and Agrabodak's offer===
Life seemed to be good with the Eyes, but soon Chanah sensed that something was wrong. The Eyes were uneasy, and she soon understood that there was a storm coming. Members kept on disappearing and signets got stole by Taurens that wanted them harm. After a battle where she was injured, she understood that this had to end, for the safety of her child.She wandered alone for a while until Agrabodak found her. He offered her a place in his guild, Agrammar. And he wanted her to be "Watcher", helping and looking after the tribe. Chanah gladly accepted. But now she faces a new time as one of the Mok'Oshu, the healers and guiders of Agrammar.Chanah is loyal to her new leader and guild, and will do all she can to keep them all well.
