Birthday√ March 28th
Zodiac Sign√ Aries
Species: Werehyena*
Gender: Female
Nationality: Filipino/Spanish/American
Personality: Koa is a very ambitious soul, what she seeks to pursue she will see to it to the end. Along with being ambitious, she is persistent, intelligent, and bases most her morals on her belief in what she perceives in right and will stand firm with it, so yes she's stubborn. Very stubborn. But along with these traits, she is very caring and loves to share a laugh with her friends.
Backstory: Koa comes from a long line of family who value and treasure traditions with a passion that's to be passed from generation to generation. From when she was born, to present day, she keeps all her family's stories close to her heart. As she grew up, she would get teased and picked on occasionally for her, well, odd name and traditions. But that never bothered her, she just kept on through, and when she got to highschool, everything became a breeze, mostly an all A student, except for maths... It was, and still is extremely easy for her.
Appearance: Malaki (Media) Koa (Image above)
Height: 5'7"
Blood Type: A Positive
Likes: Laughing, having a good time, meat, steaks, scary movies, comedy's, play fighting, sparring, listening to old stories that her mother would tell her when the two are cooking or washing dishes, sleeping.
Dislikes: Being made fun of, beavers, having someone treat her as less than an equal, failing classes, vegans, vegetarian options (like if someone gives her a veggie burger, good luck regaining her trust XD).
Fears: Being found out of her bloodline, closed off areas, beavers, being bound or unable to move, or the inability to do something.
Powers/Strengths*: Shifting into Malaki, her hyena self, surprisingly strong mouth (seriously, you do not want to get bit by her), she can see fairly well in the dark, high endurance, and she his a heightened sense of smell. However, the closer it is to the full moon, the better she's able to use her abilities, the farther away from the full moon, the more difficult it is for her to use them.
Weaknesses*: If it's not during the full moon or the phase before, the transformation for her to become Malaki is difficult and painful, often leaving her to be a bit more feral for the duration that she is Malaki. And the longer she stays as Malaki, the more feral she will act as well.
Weapons: Malaki*, her own strength, and a small pocket knife she keeps on her person.
Other: She has an old turquoise necklace given to her from her mother, that was passed down to her mother from her own mother.
