DEIDRA McALLISTER

"WILD AT HEART"

                                                                                                                 

Deidra and Dyre grew up close to each other since they were ferternal twins. Their Parents, Uther McAlister, a Fianna Ahroun with a grand reputation of being a warrior of Ireland.  Her Mother, Larissa McAlister, a Kinfolk, and a
Mage.  Growing quickly within the small Fishing Village of Willshire, unknown to the populace it was a refuge of Kinfolk for the local Fianna Caern located close by.  Dee became the dominant between the two as they
attended school and soon high school.  Uther, being a prideful and loving father, taught his children the value of what it was to be a Kinfolk, but most of all, to have McAlister blood flow within your veins.  One evening,
the two where spending the night over at their Nannies house since both their parents where away on 'business'. The night's still air was broken by the scream of pain as a crash came from downstairs as Dee quickly took one
of Grampies clubs and stood infront of her brother.  Suddenly there was a crash as the wall of the house almost seemed to explode.  As the smoke cleared, revealing a large Fianna in Crinos form.  Behind it, a lovely
blonde haired maiden followed.  Introducing herself as Karyn, the woman told them they where in grave danger, and that it was their parents that had sent them.  Dee and Dyre did what she wanted her too, and followed them into the
Umbra, thus started their path into Garou Society.  Their moonpaths led them to the Sept of the Running Winds, where they materialized within Ireland's lush forest.  Looking about, they wondered where their parents where,
however, Karyn has some bad news.  Their parents had both parished during a raid upon a Wyrm Hellhole, and that she had been told to take them here. Dee and Dy were both sadden about the news, however, they were amazed to
meet one of their Uncle, Eldrick Swift-in-Step.  The Ahroun was assigned to instruct and give the Rite of Passage to the twins.  Months later, the two finally completed their Rites and soon where given their auspices.  Dee,
like her father, held fire within her heart that gave her the passion to become that of an Ahroun.  While her brother, possessed the heart of the Ragabash, secretly a trickster at heart he seemed to be upset with her
Gaia's chosen path.  One day, quickly returning from a scouting mission, Dee and her Sentry pack found their Caern was under attack by a Pack of Black Spiral Dancers.  Quickly Dee transformed into Crinos and joined the battle
ahead of them.  While Dyre hid within the shadows as he looked on upon his sister with both love and a glimmer of jealousy.  After a long hard battle, the Caern defenders where victorious but with a cost to a lot of their
people.  Dee was quickly summoned as Eldrick was mortally wounded before her.  He spoke softly to her, telling her of the McAlister name, and that she was next to find the Ancient Family Relic which she was destined to
find.  This Grand Klaive, 'Fulgiorn', was said to hold the McAlister's name and all who held it would be great warriors of the Fianna Tribe.  He told her, that it was she who would be the next to hold its blade, and that it
would be she who would become the first female McAlister to hold it....then he died.

Dee roared a vengeful cry as she took the Ceremonial Fang Dagger from within his grasp, those of the McAlister Clan to hold it would be the next to gain the famed and lost legendary blade Fulgiorn.  From the shadows a lone figure
watched as his eyes filled with jealousy and hate for his sister.  For years she was always better than him, as passion filled her heart for her calling as an Ahroun.  Finally this had been the last straw, as the Caern's last
warriors looked about to find those who where still alive, Dyre attack had attacked and killed the Master of Challenges.  Ripping him to shreds, he turned and dissapeared within the darkness ahead. Unknowing to him, The
Master was barely alive when the battle concluded as Dee and the others arrived to his aid.  The Master told Dee and the others of what had happened, and that Dyre had been taken by Spirals. Dee dropped to her knees,
as tears for the fallen filled her eyes.  Tears for her twin brother who had een taken by the Spirals into their lair, all was lost.  Another year passed as Dee made her way to the Americas, soon arriving in Quebec City, Montreal.  There she met a Black Fury by the name of Artemis Moon-Huntress, and who was the leader of the Skin Walkers, a Nomadic Wolf Pack who did well to fight againts the Wyrm and its allies.  The Skin Walkers where known to
travel from New England, USA all the way to Quebec, Canada.  Gaining her nick name 'Wild-at-Heart', for Dee's ferocity in battle was compared to that of a Gillard's song, it was as if she had something to prove, or someone to
prove it to. Within six months time, her travels has lead her a lot throughout the lush Northern American east coast forest.  Here, she has gained allies, enemies alike, but one particular individuals she has been
drawn to a lot these days.  A Faerie and her name is Lokie.  Mischievous and tricky, the Faerie took the Fianna under her 'wing' and showed Dee the way to live life.  Learning a lot, Dee could actually thank the Fay in teaching
her the ways to relax, the two still meeting once a month on a full moon night.

Dee still morns the lost of her brother, however, she had dedicated this into her Klaive dueling.  Keeping the family tradition alive, she has engulfed herself into being an Ahourn, but most of all being a Fianna.  Her
quest for this has taken her many places as she seeks where abouts of her family's blade.  Still an honorary member of the Skin Walkers, she has left her family to search for answers in Maine. Something has drawn her to here,
not her family's blade, but something else.  Who knows where her heart will lead her next, but for now, Dee has enjoyed being a Ahroun, but most of all, being a Fianna.
