Past History:

Nizhoni is a descendent of some of the native tribes that resided on earth thousands of years before the mythical creatures of the world moved to Erellon. Her fathers ancestors hailed from a tribe known as the Shawnees and her mothers from a tribe known as the Navajo's.

Each tribe and clan within it would have a shaman or medicine man, who was able to converse with the spirits of the world, assist with curing the sick and keeping bad spirits at bay etc.

Although many of the tribe believed these men to be humans with unique abilities, they were in fact a variety of Shape-shifters. Though the stories of their origins have long been lost, when the mythical creatures fled earth these shape-shifters abandoned their tribes and took flight with them. Though to this day they still abide by and cherish certain traditions taken from the people they have left behind, they have adapted their beliefs to suit their life style on Erellon.
