Character BIO
Aiju is a young nomadic shaman apprentice. Like a few others of her tribe she can turn into a wolf and
has the power to communicate with spirits through “Dreaming”. She is the only white wolf in the tribe
though and legend has it that the white wolf will guide their people to “the promised land”. Living in
quite harsh conditions, the tribe is now hoping that Aiju will be their savior. Quite an expectation for a
young girl.

During one of her Dreamings she also experiences a horrifying vision in which she is responsible for
her whole tribe’s death. Her spiritual guide, an ancient wolf advises her to travel south where she
would find answers to her questions. Aiju decides to leave her tribe secretly and runs off into the
unknown, seemingly abandoning her duties and family. She needs to learn more about the legend of
the white wolf and find a way to avoid the disaster that looms over her tribe.
