Terrace Niteshine
Age-17
Race- Classified as wolf-person. She is, in fact, tho, daughter of Xyla and a wolf beast-man.
Class/Occupation- Wanderer
Alignment- We're leaving this out because it's iffy. She attempts at being good, but this seems impossible with all she's seen, and her powers make it so that at any minute she could plunge into darkness.
Appearance- She would be beautiful, but what has happened to her beauty can, as with more of the other things gone wrong with her life, be traced back to her power. She has pale skin that would be beautiful, but her lack of sleep, or possibly even the sleep she does get, makes her look almost sickly. There are also usually dark rings around her golden eyes. Her hair is oddly colored, long, straight, dark, and the color of the night sky. Terrace stands at an average height, always looking somewhat fragile. Some have compared her to a depressed porcelain doll. (Actually, it was her mother who did that.)
Personality- Forced to grow beyond her years by horrific nightmares and her terrible power, she often seems distant, set aside from the rest of the world by her heritage. Few can get close to this creature of darkness. With all she has seen, she can no longer keep a pure heart. Terrace now tries to keep her distance from the world, at the same time searching for a place to belong.
History- Terrace was born to Xyla and given to a human family to be taken care of. On her thirteenth birthday she recieved her accursed fear-powers, and her mother appeared to her for the first time. Her father, a royal among lupine beast-people, had been about to die on the battlefield when Xyla appeared unexpectedly to inform him he had a daughter. His best friend's son was sent charged with her protection. Terrace now wanders with her guardian and closest friend, Zeke Shadowpaw.
Weapons-
Terrace also carries a small dagger, insisted upon by Zeke, who usually guards her well enough anyway.
Other- Besides her fear powers, Terrace is also plagued by nightmarish visions of wordly horrors in her sleep. She is constantly tormented by dreams of death and pain, things of the macabre. These are the reason for her lack of sleep and the rings around her eyes. The worst of these show the deaths of those close to her or those she has met. It is assumed that all of these dreams are real and will happen in the future.

Weapons-
Power of Fear- Terrace can read the fears of mortals and cause said mortals to live them. This, though, is at a great personal cost. She is weak after using this power, and needs rest, for starters. There is also, unless she learns better control of her power, the risk of being cast into madness and darkness.
