Ciera Rashid, Garou kinfolk...Deceased no more

Ciera is a 23 year old kinfolk that has wandered the globe in a search for peace of mind. She thought she found it as the second in command and consort to a Uktena named Malici Thunder, but that's when things started getting complicated...

Malici's supposedly dead wife, Sani, returned with their son. Now, he can't decide between the woman that survived to be with him and the woman he discovered while he thought his wife was dead. To clear his mind, he left on a journey, leaving his second, Ciera, to care for his family.

Sani is recovering from her brush with Pentex, but some things, even a kitsune cannot repair. She, no longer able to have children, asked Ciera to bear them for her and Malici. Sani was obviously upset, but wanted to make Malici happy...Ciera still wasn't sure she wanted to put everyone in that position, and she didn't want to pull Malici from his family.

Jacob Featherstone, a friend of hers almost since she arrived in the Silvermoon Caern, had recently broken up with his mate and did have two girlfriends, but he felt they were using him.

Ciera decided to cut her losses and hook up with Jake. She and Joanna Maritay were his mates for a while. Most women would be degraded about having to share their man, but for Ciera, she gets to have both of them...her own little fantasy come true. She finally felt like she had a family.

On a day in spring, Ciera was driving toward the caern when she lost control and flipped the jeep. She had massive internal injuries and within a half hour she was dead. It is said that children's voices were heard crying at her passing and when those that were close to her are in need, she will come.

History

Character_Sheet

Almost two years later, near the start of spring, while Wyldstorms wracked the caern and bawn, a group of sept officials gathered around a stone carved with only a few words. Before their eyes the earth roiled and tumbled...and a hand reached from under the earth. Ciera made her way out of the ground, though it took a bit longer for her to come back to herself. She sat in the shreds of her silk shroud, wrapped in a jacket, watching...she was no longer alone in her body, one came back with her.

A spirit of Unicorn held Ciera's body for a while, taking control when she wanted. She protected the caern, in fact, Ciera could not leave the bawn at all at the risk of becoming weak and sick. After months of not knowing, of distancing herself from everyone, including Jake. The caern was found in a new place and the unicorn spirit took it's place to protect it...leaving her alone...completely alone. All the others that Jake had been with had left, while she was dead, he took a mate. His mate was not comfortable with sharing, so the family that Ciera had thought she'd had the chance to have again was gone. She told Jake it was over and went into seclusion for the most part in the woods. She was alone, and as far as the world around her was concerned, she was dead.
