Atsila's name is the Cherokee word for "fire" and she seems to know this, however, Sila is a very cautious female, always looking at the 'what ifs' before she does anything. She seems to always weigh the pros and cons of every decision she makes. However when it comes to protecting her pack or her rider, she is very protective. At feeding time however, she can be a royal pain in the rear. Always willing to steal the dinners of her packmates without a care to wither they may be hungry (she's a bottomless pit). Sila also has a seemingly unknown hate for the cold despite her heavy coat, so she is constantly trying to get under any blanket that she can find.
