The Douglas’s were an odd couple and somewhat touched in the head, fearful of strangers and downright hostile to outsiders. They kept a store of canned and preserved foods from Before hoarded in their retreat along with preserved meats and hides, delving into their stores only in emergencies and entering town only to trade. Ironically, it was the disease they so feared that brought them down, Edward Douglas succumbing to fever during a long hard winter. His wife, Melinda, who had given birth to their single daughter four years before tried to hold out but growing ill herself, semi delirious tried to make her way into town to find help for herself and her infant daughter and vanished. The child, schooled in the requirements of survival she managed to make it through the winter living on stores and eating squirrels and other rodents. It was nothing short of a miracle and the girl’s continued survival only compounded it. Her own instincts and her parent’s rather obsessive preparation for bad times kept alive threw the next winter, and the next as the child grew more and more feral as well as larger and stronger on her own. She became quite familiar with the surrounding woods and living off the land and surprisingly skilled with the pair of bowie knives she found. She was able to bring down progressively larger animals and often ran with the former family dogs as a hunting pack. Recently “others†have entered what the feral child regards as “her†territory and she has chosen to investigate. Appearance: The feral child is a stringy, skinny wiry girl of about 8 years old, perhaps a small 10. Her features are sharp and somewhat bestial, half hidden under long unkempt and dirty blonde hair. She’s dressed in rags and dirty furs, most of them tied on crudely and ill fitting. In winter she simply adds more layers and doesn’t venture out much. She’s quite dirty, with layers of grime built up but under it all is fair skinned. Her eyes are brilliant and piercing blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
