Fawn was always a nervous pup, she was the only survivor in her litter. She would often sit alone in the long grasses for hours waiting for her mother to come back with a kill.
Shortly after she reached 6 months old her pack-less mom was killed by a nearby pack for taking food from their territory. She spent the next 6 months of her life barely scraping by on unwanted scraps from nearby packs, running whenever she smelled another wolf approaching.
Until she met
him
Fawn could smell him approaching but for some reason did not run. Perhaps it was because she didn't have the energy, or maybe there was another reason, Fawn isn't really sure. He cared for her, hunted for her, created a pack for her to live in, and they had a litter of pups. He's very quiet, doesn't speak much, but she knows he loves her through his actions. She smiles when she looks at her pups, as they remind her of him.
Pack life is made hard by her childhood instincts always telling her not to trust those around her. She finds comfort in having a separate den from the rest of the pack. She is very supportive of Owl's decision to have their daughter
Snow as his heir, not only because of her striking beauty but also because she shares her mother's same reservations about the other pack wolves.
When Snow gave birth to a large litter of pups, she was worried about the survival of her chosen heir so Fawn said she'd take over keeping an eye on the rest of Snow's litter. Fawn was also watching a few of her other daughter (
Buttercup)'s pups for a total of six young puppies under her supervision.
It was during this time,
Gray slipped out of the leader's den and wandered off into the night. Owl quickly put together a search party but it was too late, Gray had been killed by a wolf from a rival pack that was trespassing on NightWhisper's territory.
Fawn was devastated and blamed herself, despite Owl's insistence that it wasn't her fault. Terrified for their family, Fawn and Snow shut themselves away in the leader's den and rarely allow anyone besides Owl to leave.
