Snowbringer 🌑

Snow fell the day the pup was born, a rare sight in the desert. It was patchy, falling heavier over the den but also discovered in spots around the territory. Sometimes the wind blew warm while you stood in it, or a blast of cold came from a cloudless sky. Some blamed the Turmoil Times, though the weird weather had ended over a year ago. The pup was strong, but her two sisters were born dead. Kathazia worried it might be a curse from the bloodline of the father, who she hadn't known for long. She went to Shaper and Lioness for advice.

The bright-furred male smiled, his unnaturally soft scent putting her at ease. "Every difference is not a curse or a blessing," Shaper said. "Sometimes things just... are. It is up to us how we use our differences. Teach her to have fun with it."

The blind female grinned. The stink of a rotten tooth was on her breath. A large beetle crawled out from under a rock and she snapped it up. "Cold brings death," Lioness said. "Teach her to use the wind. She will have the fear and loyalty of every scaly and crawling thing."

Snowbringer tries to be humbler than her mother, but it isn't easy when you have been declared special by a pair of suspected gods. She decorates herself with the berries of strange bushes only found growing in the snow that follows her. Sometimes the weather appears to respond to her desires, when she wishes for wind to cool the hunters or snow to play in. Mostly it comes and goes at random, reminding the pack that there are mysteries they will never understand.

An independent spirit, Snowbringer pushed back when Alpha Female Khekt said she must wait to take a mate. If she couldn't be with Akhlut they would leave together before they finished their hunting apprenticeship. Wary of damaging relations with the prominent Chaser family, the Alphas relented. The pair endure whisperings that the relationship is doomed to some future tragedy.
