Spinel is a longtooth shifter and an eldritch knight fighter.
Physical Appearance
Spinel is lithe and muscular and has several hyena-like traits. When she shifts, her muzzle becomes more elongated and claws and tail more pronounced. Her fur is a pale brown/gray. As a trained fighter, she is most often found waring chain mail, ready for the next battle.
Personality
As with many shifters, Spinel is fierce and self reliant. She believes her strength can solve most of her problems and doesn't have much respect for those who are not outwardly strong. She doesn't like to admit she is wrong. In spite of herself, she is known to occasional help weaklings in need, especially if it advances her goals.
Spinel is capable of forming strong bonds and is incredibly loyal to her tribe, at least those that are still alive. She will do all she can to protect those who have earned her trust. Because much of her tribe has perished in the recent past—and because her most trusted friend up and left one night—she can be wary of forming new bonds. What good is loyalty if everyone is just going to leave or die?
History
Spinel was born into a hyena-like shifter tribe—the Igneus of Isonhound—that has been decimated by recent conflicts with orcs and the more beast-like shifter tribes. In spite of their low numbers, the recent disappearance of her tribe’s sacred gems and artifacts has only strengthened their resolve to put these conflicts to end.
When she came of age, Spinel and a few of her peers traveled to a nearby wolf-like shifter tribe—the Alluvium—to train as soldiers. But not long into their trainings, her tribe mate Cobalt—the target of her burgeoning affections—took off one night leaving only a note behind. He stated he was going to find their tribe’s lost artifacts and not to follow, for it would be too dangerous. At first, Spinel vowed to become stronger so she could prove herself worthy of being by his side. She dipped into the arcane arts to strengthen her swordsmanship and better protect herself. But as the years passed, she realized Cobalt didn’t deserve her company. She would seek him out and get her answers…or her revenge for his seeming betrayal.

Powers and Abilities
Spinel can enhance her hyena-like traits at will. In this shifted form, she is particularly aggressive and is not afraid to put her sharp canines to good use. In addition to wielding a sword, Spinel turns to the arcane to enhance her fighting prowess, for example harnessing green flame blade. The rest of her magic is a product of her past. Losing her tribe and best friend, she knows she must rely on herself. Defensive spells like shield and silvery barbs are now her most trusted allies.
