Physical Description:
Shae's most iconic feature is her long, vibrant red hair. A mass that she treats with vanity and pride. Pale skin is covered with a thick layer of freckles she wears proudly. Matched with bright hazel gray eyes, she tends to brighten wherever she walks. Forever a hippy at heart, her clothing reflects an eclectic combination of whatever happened to be the first thing in her closet. Her fingers are often stained with ink, or paint, or whatever her medium of the moment happens to be.
Personality: Chaotic. Shae loves to live life in an energetic whirlwind of happiness. She is inquisitive, daring, and outspoken more times than not. She hates being constrained by, well, anything, and will be contrary to be contrary if she is forced an issue.
Outside of painting, her biggest hobby is Sophia. A 1963 Volkswagen Beetle that has more miles on it than the odometer can read. If it isn't clinking, clanking, or hopping gears, Shae dotes on it with ever changing art. The floral mural that spans the car's surface is every changing, and done with endless bottles of nail polish. It isn't uncommon to see her laying on the roof and adding more where old layers have chipped away.
The rest of the time, she is underneath the old beauty. Fixing what she can with old parts sourced from junk yards. It would be better to get new parts in replication, but the money is steep for that, and Shae's finances always seem to be two steps away from destitute.
Vices: Attractive men (occasionally women) and falling in - and out - of love quickly. She is fickle when it comes to dating and romance.
Strengths: Generous and humorous. Spontaneous and quick to adapt on the fly.
Weaknesses: Very impatient and stubborn once she digs her heels in.
Fears/Phobias: Crawly things. Spiders, cockroaches, centipedes etc.
Turn Ons: Direct, confident people
Turn Offs: Clinginess

Enemies: Shae has an ex-boyfriend that just won't go away. Harmless, but a thorn in her side. They dated, off and on, for three months, before Shae found him to be too cloying. He wanted to be in every part of her life. Said he didn't care when she went out with other people but ended up following her wherever she went. The final straw was when she discovered the GPS app he had snuck onto her phone. The confrontation was messy and emotional, but a warning about calling the police seemed to have stopped the worst of it. Though she still occasionally catches glimpses of him, nothing concrete enough to get him in trouble.

Character History:Born in San Diego in December of 1986, Shae was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Williams. Her father was a very lucrative divorce attorney and her mother a literature professor. The world growing up was rigid and routine, with big shoes and high expectations. A gangly child, she grew into her legs and moppy hair before the rest of her developed. As a counter for being teased, she developed a laissez-faire attitude and turned to humor. If she laughed at herself first, everyone else had to laugh with her. When puberty hit, and she grew into her height, the teasing stopped, but her outlook on the world never changed.
To some minor controversy, she took to art in those middle school years when children thought they were adults and could be the cruelest. She found that people could ignore the freckles when she showed them something beautiful. Her hard work paid off in a partial scholarship to RISD.
The last few years, however, have been strained. Her mom wants her to come back home, get married, have kids, and get a 'real job'. In response, Shae has done everything in her power to stay far away. The ends are tighter now, but her freedom is worth it.
The supernatural World and Shae have a long tangled past. Her time in Boston was filled with witches, dark magic, vampires, shifters, and fae.
Somewhere along the line, she had caught the eye of a Master Vampire. As nothing more than a human in a paranormal world, the cruel creature had tormented her relentlessly. He took pleasure in tearing apart her life little bit by little bit, until she was a hollow of herself, feeding on her fear and destination like his brethren fed on blood. It was the death of a young woman right before her eyes, his hands stained with the blood, that had pushed her over the edge. Despair and anger caused her to turn freely to the world of Shifters, a begrudging gift given beneath the full moon. Shae needed revenge for her friend and peace for her soul.
There are some things Shae doesn't talk about. One of them is what happened in that old industrial building in Boston. She went in, the vampire came out. They don't sparkle in the sun - they burn.
A peace had followed, but too much had been there in Boston, and Shae knew she was a coward. Packing her car, she took the long trip west. Each stop she grew a little bit of herself back. Each morning light made her heart less dull until one morning she opened her eyes and could breathe the air again and smell its sweetness.
But even through all of that, Shae still has her weaknesses. Before, she was afraid to commit. Now she is afraid to lose. Either way, she came to Ulfric Robert's pack with unashamed confidence in who she was. Beneath all the shields of chaos, Shae is that woman that walked alone into a vampire nest and drug the Master into the sun.
After initiation and the period of testing, Ulfric Robert appointed her the position of Eranthe, and her wolf settled to this new life.
Shae has all of the standard strengths and weaknesses of all Lycan shifters as well as the below :
1) Block Masters Call - Lycanthropes have the ability to not only resist the pull of a Master Vampires call, but also to block that call from going out to other Lycanthropes in their general vicinity. A Head of Clan level Lycanthrope can extend this protection to their entire Pack. Can also be used to block a Summoning Cry.
2) Calling the Beast - This power allows a Lycanthrope to draw out the rage/anger of a fellow Lycanthrope, forcing that Lycanthrope to shift, even against their
3) Quick Shifting - A Lycanthrope has the ability to rush through the shifting process. Essentially, the Lycanthrope draws on their power, pushing it through them in a rush of power and causing their shifted form to explode out of them.
4) Slashing Aura - A powerful Lycanthrope can wield their aura like a weapon, lashing out with it to cut their victim.
5) Healing (Sex) - Lycanthropes have the power to heal others through a variety of means. Some heal through touch. Others require the sharing of blood. Some require the passion of sex. When selecting this power, choose one method in which you can perform your healing.
6) Taming the Beast - This power allows a Lycanthrope to sink the rage/anger of a fellow Lycanthrope, preventing the Lycanthrope from drawing on its power to shift. Generally, this power is used to assist younger or more submissive wolves, especially close to a Full Moon.
7) Scent Emotions - A unique power which allows the Lycanthrope to sense/smell the mood and changes in the mood of other nearby living creatures. Does not allow them to affect the creatures mood, just sense/smell it. Also does not allow them to interpret what those emotions specifically mean. (I.E. No Mind Reading)
