What Acadia lacks in size she makes up for in her cunning and sharp mind, with the driving force of survival and instinct burning through her blood. Born to parents who were far from the best models, she survived her early years of puppyhood relying largely on her own and fighting for what nourishment she could get. Acadia learned quickly, however, and became almost something that would have made her parents proud. She prefers to live as a loner; a shadow at the edges of the woods that line some unfortunate village, and a predator of local livestock or the occasional careless hiker. As soon as suspicions begin to arise, though, the crafty dire would shift to other areas, causing havoc wherever she wanders.
