She has a lithe form, sporting slender muscles in her arms, legs, and torso. Her skin is naturally pale and cold to the touch, her eyes are slightly up tilted and hold the color crossed between pale moss green and grey. They are rimmed with thick black lashes, her pupils are mere black slits in the green depths. Her cheekbones are high and defined by slightly rounded cheeks. Her chin is small and round making her face appear innocent, but hiding her true nature. Her hair falls to her waist in thick tresses of silver, black and grey. She bears a scar on her right hip, it runs from the top of her hipbone to her knee. It is silver in color and thin, she obtained it while being pursued by those who had hoped to capture her and sell her. Another scar lies across her shoulders, it is thin but jagged. It was obtained when she had been attacked by another of her kind. - Beast: In her beast form Brighid stand three to three and a half feet in height. From the tip of her tail to her nose she ranges from 85-90 inches in length, her tail about half of that. Her body weighs around eighty to a hundred pounds, most of it is solid muscle. Her coat is thick its color grey and silver with dark grey and black open rosettes on her body. The rosettes becoming smaller around her head, and neck yet larger on her tail and paws.

Her wide paws allow her to distribute her weight evenly, the fur on the underside of them allow for better grip on icy of slick surfaces. Without a larynx Brighid is unable to roar, so instead she vocalizes through hissing, chuffing, mewls, growls, and wailing. Character Concept: Brighid like her animal counterpart is solitary, she is used to being alone and enjoys it. She tends to rely heavily on her instincts, sleeping, hunting and traveling. She is very cold towards others, regardless of who or what they are. She wanders the frozen lands, her heart cold and yearning. But what does she yearn for? It is a question that eats away at her, day and night. Unable to find an answer she continues on. She stays on the outskirts of Avanthal, but she is constantly traveling, her instincts guiding her, on where to sleep, and where to hunt. She avoids any scent that is human, or humanoid, knowing it could be dangerous for her. She will enter the city if needed but is very frightened to venture too far, the unfamiliar surrounding frighten and confuse her. The building make her feel confined, and unable to breath. Her interaction with others is virtually nonexistent, she tends to stay in her leopard form rather then her human one. She is strong willed and tends to avoid conflict. Rarely speaking, she talks through body language and simple movements. Her actions are instinctual, she has a simple understanding of how the world works but beyond that is shrouded in shadows. Her mind works like her animal counterpart, observing, watching, and waiting. Her instincts guide her, keeping herself from getting killed. Although, she seems cold and without a heart there is a small flame inside her. It flickers and barely burns, it is her humanity. Character History: Born into slavery Brighid was taken from her mother at a young age, she was kept as a pet. Given to a young human boy named Magnus, he was at the age of seven. Brighid was a mere six months old but already the size of a small child, she was meant to protect the boy. The parents had hoped for the two to bond but Brighid was traumatized, like any young searching for its mother she constantly cried out for her. She had been too young to understand that her mother was gone, Magnus tried to get close to her but she had drawn in on herself becoming completely animistic. If Magnus would try and pet her, she would attack him. Although they had kept her collared, she was still savage. She attacked anyone that approached her, Magnus's parents grew worried for their son's safety and so sold Brighid. She was nearly ten months at the time, now the size of a teenager she was stronger and even more dangerous. She was taken from market to market around the northern regions, no one would take her all fearing for their own safety. Soon the slaver's came to a decision, she was too dangerous to handle. They had decided to kill her. so on that night they had taken her from her cage. Brighid went ballistic, she had known that her life was in danger. She had shifted and killed each of the slavers, then frightened and alone she ran over miles and miles of icy tundra. She ran until she was able to run no more. After she ran herself to the ground, she was found by a traveling human merchant. The human had took pity on her, she taught Brighid as much as she could in the small amount of time they spent together, Brighid learned the Common tongue. Eamhair was able to get Brighid to wear clothes although she hated them. She even taught Brighid how to ride, they were together for about a year. One night, they had traveled far the previous day and were a few miles from the city, they were raided, Eamhair had been killed in the process leaving Brighid alone. Brighid hunted down each of the men and ripped them apart. Now Brighid wanders, searching for something, but what is it?
