Extended Background

Went for a pack of cigs’ and never came back. . .

Little Kacii begins life with a happy childhood. Her family frequently takes trips, play games together, and live a comfortable life in their secluded homestead. That all changes when her family is killed while Kacii’s on a field trip. Without a way off their land and no known relatives or nearby neighbors to check up on them, Kacii stays put.

If a tree falls in the forest, and no ones around to hear it, does it make a sound?

An odd man shows up on her doorstep with an offer to take care of her. Her mom told her not to talk to strangers..but he’s tall, and handsome, and seems kind enough. Kacii has yet to meet an adult that isn’t, really. He seems unperturbed by the stink emanating from inside, or the dried blood still speckling the floorboards. She accepts his offer, carried on his hip as they leave her home behind, unbeknownst to her just what she’s gotten herself into.

Buckle up, baby.

The tall man brings Kacii to a strange facility, in which she would stay for the next several years of her life. Her name is taken from her and she is given a new one: Experiment #863. She is taken apart piece by piece and put back together again. She is stripped of her willpower, her sense of self and all of her security in order to make her the ‘perfect’ experiment. That’s what the Tall man wants. He wants her to be perfect, he says he wants her to lead his army. The only thing she wants is to get the hell out of here.

As years pass, she makes a name for herself in the Lab as the one nobody wants to work with. She’s aggressive, they say, bloodthirsty, an animal. She doesn’t even remember what there is to return to outside of the facility, but she knows it has to be better than this.

When you put someone in a cage, don’t be surprised when they don’t let you in.

Kacii’s determination to escape only grows. They can’t bleed it out of her no matter how hard they try. She’s notorious for prison breaks and staff ‘accidents’. New hires are not to be assigned to Experiment #863 under any circumstances for fear of her impending escape. Dangerous, Do Not Engage. Kacii meets another young experiment by the name of Juniper, who she rapidly becomes attached to. Huh? She protects Juniper, coddles her, much to the facilities bewilderment. Even as Juniper loses herself to the madness and turns on her, Kacii would rather die than lay hands on Juniper.

Just couldnt keep me locked away forever, could you?

An escape from the little blue wolf is inevitable; she’s bided her time for years and only needs it to fall into place. The day that it does, she begs Junipers company, but her companion has none of it. The young experiment flees the facility without her into the outskirts of New York City, stark naked, dejected, and lost. Kacii feels the grass between her toes for the first time in so many years, smells the flowers and the trees and the diesel fumes, and smiles that excited, brilliant smile.She hasn’t stopped running since.

Abilities

Canis Lupus Occidentalist:Being part of the genetics division of the lab had it’s perks. By terminating her immune system, the Lab was able to successfully splice Kacii’s DNA with another animals: Canis Lupus Occidentalist, more commonly known as Mackenzie Valley Wolf. In a step farther, they altered that as well, boosting the wolfs size considerably to stand about 5”6 tall, toe to ear. Kacii can shift between the two freely, her bones made malleable to assist in the phase. Her magic helps the shift as well, her prosthetic arm transitioning with her to suit her wolven form and her clothes remaining intact.

SMELL:Being part wolf, Kacii already has a superb sense of smell beyond mere human ability; pair that with scientific tweaking and eldritch magic and you have the most notable tracker of the group of surviving experiments. Much like a true dog, Kacii picks up and processes information through scent more than any of her other senses. She can pick up on scents from hundreds of miles away and can smell things that haven’t been touched in years, picking up remnants of who left it behind. Her heightened sense of smell leaves her frazzled when in cityscapes and dense crowds.

Strength, Speed, & DurabilityKacii's physical prowess is nothing to reckon with. Backed by years of genetic enhancement and eldritch magic, Kacii is manufactured to withstand a fight with the Gods. She can move as a blur, throw a right-hook hard enough to put a sizable dent in Mt. Rushmore, and take a hit just as hard.

While Kacii is built to take that hit, however, her body is slow to heal and easy to get infected. She does not go into shock from blood loss nor pain, but unless she can end an altercation quickly while gravely injured, she's likely to take weeks to months to heal from some damage. With a pathetically weak immune system, Kacii is very susceptible to illness.....However, her companion Algiz offsets this-- see his tab for more information.

Eternal...While Kacii herself is (mostly) human, she belongs to a family of ancient eldritch deities. After being gifted a portion of Yog-Sothoth's magick, Kacii is able to channel it to help in a variety of ways that usually depend heavily on her emotions.Teleportation, enhanced physical abilities, and memory transfer are the most notable of the abilities she's discovered. However, the magick is quite possibly limitless. When it's in use, the sleeve tattoo on her arm glows and pulsates as a dim blue glow that seems to have a life of its own.Overuse of this magick can result in extreme exhaustion.

Algiz : Abilities

IntelligenceAlgiz is no normal dog-- he usually seems as if he knows exactly what's said to him and responds appropriately. Algiz is highly empathetic, an incredible judge of character and situation, and can survive on his own while left to his own devices. While it's unknown exactly how sentient he is, it's safe to say that his intellegence is uncanny for a canine.

HealingAlgiz is surrounded by something of a healing aura. While in Algiz's general radius, headaches and ailments will slowly disperse, and wounds heal quicker than normal.It's unknown whether or not Algiz can channel this ability for active healing.

BarrierWhen Algiz senses a considerable threat, he is able to manifest barrier to surround himself in something of a protective bubble. It's impenetrable by most objects, creatures, and magick. The barrier can surround himself and any person (usually Kacii) near him.

Quotes

Here you'll find a collection of quotes from the people in Kacii's life that I think deserve some attention and recognition for their reflections on my wolf child. Each name underneath the quote links directly to that persons account.

"Ira had always known that Kacii was… Delicate. Perhaps not /known/, per-say, but /felt/. Her body was rigid, and tough, her small frame lined with hard muscle and scar tissue. He’d seen her hard expressions, her angry snarls. She moved with power and confidence in her strides when she walked, or ran. She spoke with forwardness front and center in her words, abrasive at times in its fervor. She took shelter in the wilds, functioning like she had no need for any commodity he was used to -- living in the wilderness, living off of the land, never shying from the elements. Evidence of the torture she endured covered her from head to toe, remnants of her pain and her fear and her guilt and her loss crisscrossing over every part of her body that he could see. In place of her left arm, a prosthetic twisted against him, warm as her flesh. The pain she must have gone through, to be given such a thing. And on her right…It hid her. It hid who she was. /They/ made her like that, /they/ did that to her -- that fucking nebulous “they”. And still, and still…Kacii became shy, and embarrassed, whenever she admitted she didn’t understand something, or didn’t know what something was. She cosied up close when he read to her, appreciating his presence, comforted enough to fall asleep. She desired companionship and warmth, and sought him out. When he patted her head, or her back, she’d always lean in, as if basking in it. She shied away from painful topics, wanting to run, hiding her hurt. She brought him little wild gifts on his birthdays, seashells and satchels of dirt and perfect little flowers, as pure and innocent as she was. She’d listen to him talk about everything, and anything -- boosting him up, and cheering him on, always wanting to protect him. Even his “crushed feelings” for one Andrew Yao -- meeting them with her own of love, loss, grief, and betrayal.She smiled, and she laughed, and she blushed, and she hugged, and she loved, and she hurt -- and she cried, cried and gasped and fought as if she were drowning, as it all became too much."-Ira Wennings

"And he bent on Kacii a bored look, as if he was talking to fucking bonsai—or something else equally brainless. And unnatural and had served little purpose in his life until this point of time but at the same time annoyingly /intriguing/."-Andrew Yao

"He'd lied, before—if it wasn't obvious already—about his thoughts on the female's scent. She smelled of autumn trees and green open spaces, and her embrace, however awkward, was kind and warm safe for where the coldness of her metal arm bit into his skin."-Andrew Yao
