Just Another Day

"Dare to dream, dare to fly, dare to be the ever-chosen one to touch the sky!"

Shanku was named after her great-great-grandmother, who was the best hunter of her day. This is a point of pride for Shanku and her dream as a cub was to become a superb huntress as well. She was exiled from her clan at a young age due to inadvertently bringing home dangerous creatures when she would go off wandering by herself. Shanku was ashamed and bitter over that. She missed her family and was undecided about whether she would return when the ten years of her exile has passed.

She is largely carefree and adventurous, and completely stricken with wanderlust. She is rebellious to a fault, prone to emotional outbursts when she gets frustrated, and always questioning what she encounters (mostly because she is simply very curious). But that isn't to say she lacks a serious side. It is vital that to her that she be considered trustworthy by those that matter to her and that she will be there to the bitter end.

Shanku now roams the entirety of the known world, making friends, and learning more about the history of her people that was hushed up by the clan's elders over the centuries.

Her best friend is Katari and she has grown close to Ina.

Shanku's father was in the military and she spent a lot of her childhood moving around. As per the law of the land, all intelligent species have to attend common highschools, and she was reunited with her old friend Katari in Wynfall. They were separated again when they were accepted into different colleges, and she went to Swan's Down.

First created in 2004, she began as simply a forum username until she was drawn and started developing a personality. "Shanku" means "arrow", "dart", or "weapon" and is a Hindu boy's name. It also means "Lord Shiva, the Destroyer", among a few other things, but I promise I didn't find out about that particular name meaning until ten years after I'd named her. It kind of fits though!
