Painted Peak was the first born of her parent's first litter. From a young age she knew that she would be the leader. She would protect her brothers, provide for the family and, one day, take over the pack to lead as her own, and clearly her family knew it too. It had been planned that she would rise through the ranks to ascend to Alpha-hood in a timely manner... until things changed.
Before she knew it, her pack had been taken over. A lone wolf she did not know challenged her parents, and won. The wolf took her youngest brother as her mate, and cast out Painted Peak for being a threat. She wandered for half a year before stumbling upon new territory in the mountains to call home, and she lived for two months more before starting a pack of her own. She soon had her first litter of pups, Daisy Sprout and Singing Crow, with a wolf named Fallen Leaf.
She had started the pack she had always wanted (And, secretly, felt entitled to) on her own, with her pups, loyal subordinates, and her lifelong companion Rainy Clay.
