Now we need a name for the old Cacklebone shaman. So there's a touch of teacher/ex-student, maybe, in their relationship...But also Ebba's gone down a different path. It will be interesting as Ebba grows to see if Myryna thinks of her as a success at what she is, or...What an amazing druid/shaman she<em>could</em>have been. ;)<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=259968.msg12841795#msg12841795">Quote from: Chulanowa on 15-12-2016, 00:51:31</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Yar, I was trying to convert Shifter "types" into Skinwalker subraces, and had one left over.

Hyenas are fantastic apex predators and horribly misunderstood (as are lions, for that matter...I'm particularly amused in terms of which is reputedly vs. factually more likely to behave 'lazily' and to try to steal the others' kill).
