Mist grew up in a male-led patriarchal pack, in a litter with four boys. She learned very quickly to fend for herself and put up barriers to survive - and she carries on that trait even now. Training under Jadwi, she has honed her hunting skills, becoming one of the best of the pack. However, Jadwi's hunt party ("The Harpies") was at its strategic capacity, so she founded a new hunting pack to utilize the combat skills of the some of the males of the den (who were spending most of their time doing denwork, breeding, and pupsitting). This pack became known as the Stonefangs, with its founding members being Mist (the leader and finisher), Ornlu, and Garth.
Mist has always found herself solely attracted to female wolves, despite meshing best socially with male wolves due to her brashness and male habits picked up from her old pack.
