Hiawassee

Hiawassee was an Eastern Screech Owl who served as the familiar and companion of Yulian, a lone she-wolf. Her story is ongoing. Hiawassee was created and RP'd by VilkasVale.

## Personality

* ***Sensible and Well-Traveled.*** For someone so small, Hiawassee is bold and her common sense wide and extensive. She's not old, no, not by a landslide- but after living in the forest for so long, she feels as though she's mostly seen it all.
* ***Sharp and Spunky, but Patient.*** She can have a bit of a sharp tongue, if you're not too fast paced or quick to combat in some verbal play with her. She means well, and despite her somewhat spunky exterior lies an owl underneath who is patient, understanding, and even a bit motherly.
* ***Desperate for Affection.*** Hiawassee, an owl who's mostly lived out on her own, has no goals nor plans to find a family of her own, but it is friendship and attention she craves in place of that. She stays quick witted and sharp because of her experience with the world, believing it's shaped her to be who she is now and that it's important to maintain such a strong personality.
* ***Intuitive and Nurturing.*** Still, there is the unspoken wisdom within her (aren't all owls supposed to be?) and while it may be easy for her to occasionally poke fun of others, she is very intuitive and perhaps can read what they've been through. When around beings she can ultimately trust, Hiawassee is very soft and nurturing. Her advice isn't always sugar coated, but she is willing to spill all of her years of experience to whoever might need the help...just as long as they don't mind it coming from someone who can stand on talons and soar through the air!

## Pre-Group History

She hadn't always known that the forest she lived in was called Chandor.

But to Hiawassee, it was still home here.

Raised in a small nest alongside her sister, the two owlets were taught all of the gracious and general rules of life. To be kind to the world, thank her for the blessings that she provides, and to always be alert and aware… and to treat others with a sensible kindness.

Well, mostly.

The day she could finally leave the nest was her best yet- and Hiawassee couldn't wait to see what the land around her had in store for the young owl. The nest had been growing, cramped as it was, and with the knowing looks her mother casted upon Hiawassee and her sister, it was nearing their time to leave home. They were all but unwilling, and Hiawassee braced herself for the dawn of a new day- a dawn of a new life to unfold before her.

Morning had lasted forever, and a pair of grumpy eyes would glare out from her sleeping spot… but finally, the night would arrive.

Hiawassee was off.

With a confident smile to her small family, her sister, that she could always return to visit, she spread her great wings and flew away.

The night was amazing. The air was incredible! She'd never want to forget this feeling, heart racing in her chest and eyes wide with realization of a whole future ahead of her. Her wings soared and lifted the young owl further, higher into the air… and looking down from the moonkissed canopy Hiawassee was at last free to explore what she wanted of this exciting new world.

--

Well, that was then, and this is now… She's come to learn a lot, since that day. Hiawassee knows of all the little interesting nooks and crannies to Chandor- that's what she learned the nearby wolf pack had been called. It's peaceful here, and she found a way to coexist amongst their faces, though they might not have paid her any mind or had seen her before.

That is, until she meets a certain giant of a wolf...Yulian.

## Trivia

* Hiawassee's name is Cherokee for "meadow".
* Unbeknownst to her, Hiawassee has been to many of the already named territories in Domain!
* While she is physically unable and unfit for it, Hiawassee has secretly always wanted children of her own. (Maybe that's why she's found such a soft spot for the large red wolf…)
