Thing:</strong><br/>As a child Little Fox was lost in a storm and stumbled into the first lair of the Great Platinum Wyrm.  It was filled with ancient draconian pictograms.  She knew they were important, but couldn’t understand what they said.  She eventually fell asleep in the warmth of the immense cavern and when she awoke she was once again in the storm but heard the voices of her tribe looking for her.  When she returned to the village she found that the pictograms were faintly traced onto her skin.  She still has no idea what they mean, but her magical talent manifested soon after.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Icons:</strong><br/><br/><em>Great Platinum Wyrm (2 point, Heroic Positive)</em><br/>Little Fox’s tribal totem is the Platinum Wyrm an ancient representation of the Great Golden Wyrm.  It is said that much of the tribes lore was passed to them by the Great Platinum Wyrm and their shamans were charged with the guardianship the North.  The Platinum Wyrm appeared to little fox in her dreams as a child marking her forever as a Shaman of the tribes.<br/><br/><em>Elf Queen (1 point, Ambiguous Conflicted)</em><br/>There are ancient pacts made between the tribes of the North and the winter fae, that bind them together.  The Half-Elves of the Northern Tribes are not born of human and elven parents.  They are a race of Half-Elves that breed true, born of those ancient joinings of humans and winter fae generations ago.  The ancient pacts still hold but the Northern Tribes are their own people and the Elf Queen doesn’t fully trust her northern half-kin.<br/><br/><em>The White (1 point, Ambiguous Negative)</em><br/>Not all of the Northern tribes serve The White.  If fact they are split with a equal serving The Great Golden Wyrm in the guise of the Platinum Wyrm.  Those that serve the Platinum Wyrm work to protect the sacred sites that weaken The White from raiders of the Winter Dragon and the agents of the Archmage who seek the magic contained within for their own designs.<br/><br/><strong>Backgrounds:</strong><br/><br/><em>Shaman of the Northern Hills 4</em><br/>Little Fox was the shaman of her tribe before the disappeared.  The former shaman instructed her in the stories and tales of the Northern Tribes as well as the knowledge of the beasts of the far north.  Skill should help in legends and folklore, arcane lore, use magic device and heal.<br/><br/><em>Tundra Walker 2</em><br/>Life in the far north is harsh.  It takes brains as well as brawn to survive.  All children of the northern tribes learn how to hunt gather and survive in the far north.  They know the subtlties of the lands and can recognized differences in the white snow that others miss.  Skill should help in survival, navigation, spot, notice, climb, ride (sled), and jump.<br/><br/><em>Spirit Friend 2</em><br/>A shaman must bargain with the spirits of the North, be they storm, snow or under ice.  Creature Lore, diplomacy,  Speak Languages:  Hold basic

Northern Tribes are taken care of by the village as a whole and while there is a special relationship that a child has with her birth parents, they attached to the community in a way that is tight knit and personal.  She gained the name Little Fox for she was a slight of frame and nimble and a magnate for danger.  Who Calls Winter was added later when she became the tribes shaman.<br/><br/>When she was a young girl Little Fox, always a wanderer got lost in a storm.  She happened upon a large cavern in the ancient hills.  It was barren yet warm and filled with strange pictograms.  Waiting out the storm she fell asleep and dreamed of the Great Platinum Wyrm.  He told her this was his lair when he was but a child and he would be happy to share it with her if she were to help him in return.  Now Little Fox was a curious and quizative little girl, but she had been taught well and remembered the responsibilities of the guest the Village Shaman had taught her and the others, so she agreed to help the Platinum Wyrm.  He smiled and bade her to rest and when she awoke she was no longer in the cavern, but in a snowy field outside of her village, her skin covered in the pale lines and whirls of the pictograms she had seen.  When she told her parents and the village elders what had happened she was given over to the Tribe’s Shaman to be trained as Little Fox had clearly been marked.<br/><br/>As a Shaman her duties were not only to the village but the tribe as a whole and as she grew she began to travel the Northern Hills.  She saw the signs of The White’s stirrings and consulted with other Shamans.  Upon her return to her village after once such gathering she found her village empty.  There were no signs of violence, no signs of disturbance at all.  They had just vanished.  Distraught Little Fox searched and searched, but found no clues to the whereabouts of the villagers.  She prayed to the Platinum Dragon and consulted the spirits and creatures of the ice and listened to the omens all of which have led her to the town of Snowguard where she hopes she can find those that might help her not only find her family but deal with a greater evil that the omens have only hinted.<br/><br/><strong>Motivation:</strong><br/><br/>Find out what happened to her family and the rest of her village.<br/>
