Rainy Clay came from not-so-humble beginnings. Her pack was feared, regarded by many as the greatest pack in the valley. If there was a god of luck, their eye was surely cast upon her pack. Her entire life, she could be considered lucky, a living rabbit's foot. She survived a fox attack mere months after being born, and proudly brought home a deer fawn after her first time hunting. She was sought after by many aspiring alphas as the perfect mate, but none of them were ever suitable. This was where the rabbit's foot of the valley ran out of luck.
She had tried, once before, to bond with a lifelong mate. She had been pretty, and kind, and intelligent; an herbalist from a different pack come over to apprentice under Rainy's own. Her parents had not taken kindly to that idea, and cast her out without warning to a harsh and unforgiving world.
Her luck, however, picked up again as she was discovered by Fallen Leaf only a month into her exile. From there she was brought to Painted Peak, and was given a role in the Clear Lakes Pack as stalker for the first established hunting party. It was there she was free to find herself, and dedicate herself completely to her alpha, her companion, her lifelong mate; Painted Peak, without fearing rebuttal from her parents once again.
