~Full Birth-Given Name~
"My name is Arianna C. James, thanks for asking. The 'C' stands for Calla, if you were wondering."

~Preferred Name // Nickname~
"I like my middle name, but only my mother refers-well, referred-to me as Calla. As for everyone else? They can call me Ari."

~Sexual Orientation & Gender~
"Why so curious?" Arianna asks, every part of her face smiling except her eyes, which were tired and...pained maybe? "Well, if you really want to know, I'm a female. A straight, ordinary female. Well, until it gets a bit chilly."

~Years Since My Birth~
"It's been 24 years since I was born."

~At What Age Were You Turned?~
"I was bitten on my 21st birthday, turned a week or two later. I'm really not special, if you compare me to the others."

~Pack Standing~
"I'm just an average member of the pack, I follow my Alpha, I respect my Beta. However, if someone tries to get between me and my meal, you'll probably see them later with their tails between their legs."

~How Long Have You Been With the Devereaux Pack?~
"I've been with the pack since my first Shivers, so just about three years. I enjoy them, but don't let them know that." Arianna winked, like they were best friends that had just shared an important secret.

~Also Knowing~
"Well, if you're really curious then I guess I'll tell you. I was majoring in Criminal Justice, I was one of the top students, believe it or not. That was before the Shivers, ever since...I haven't really bothered trying for my degree. What's the point? I'll never get to use it." Arianna's eyes wandered, and if one was paying attention to her hands they would notice they were flat and unfolded. They looked like they were reaching, grasping for the last bits of her fragile dream. Soon though, they were back in their folded position, and Arianna was ready to continue. "Let's move along."

~Your Other Half~
"My other half? How funny. Well, I did have a thing with a boy named Marcus, but he's long gone. Just like the rest of them."

~Family Members Affected by the Shiver~
"My family...It was me, my brother Marcelo, and my parents Elizabeth and Aiden. Other than that, it was my roommates, Em and Ivory. They sent me back to my family after my symptoms arose, because they were concerned. It was my family that made the decision to kick me out. Good for them, I guess."

~Furry Companions~
"Why, yes I do. I'm glad you asked. I have my lovely pet ferret, Iris. She's such a cute little thing, loves to steal. She has a stash underneath my bed, full of socks and such. I return them of course, but she usually manages to get them back. I just say it's a treat, she has managed to survive in a house full of wolves, after all."

~Song That Best Describes Me~
"A song to describe me? That's a tough question, let me think....I have always enjoyed 'I Lived' by One Republic. I suppose it describes me pretty well. I also like 'It's Time', that's basically my anthem."

~Who Turned You and Changed Your Life~
"I knew you would ask this question, but I hoped you wouldn't. Well, it was my 21st birthday. I had wanted to stay home and study, because I had exams a few weeks later, but my friends wouldn't let me. They took me clubbing, and eventually they found some men and left me on my own. I had stumbled around for a while, drunk off my ass. A boy, who knows what his name was, offered to help me out. I accepted, being in a drunken stupor and all, and eventually we made our way out of the bar, sucking faces. It was chilly, and I guess he didn't realize that, because he turned. Right in front of my eyes! I should have ran, but in my state I probably went to pet him. Unsurprisingly, I ended up bitten. All because of a boy I'll never know." Arianna's voice was bitter, and flames danced in her eyes. She hated thinking about him, the boy that had ruined her life. She shouldn't have gone out that night, if she hadn't, she would have made her way through college. She would have been normal. "No need to dwell on the past, let's continue."

~My Life Before the Shiver Overtook Me and How It Effected Me~
"I grew up simple, my parents didn't go to college so they weren't able to make as much money as some of the other parents. That didn't change anything though, I still grew up strong, in a great home. My mother was able to stay home because my dad made enough to feed us each year, and with her guidance I became the girl I am today. Smart, independent, and capable." Arianna's voice quivered, as she remembered her upbringing. She thought about-no she craved-what she could have had. "My dad was only home on the weekends, and I savored that time with him. He was such a great father, to me and Marcelo. Anyways, as I grew, I showed a lot of promise in school. My parents were proud of me of course, and I used that as motivation. I applied for so many scholarships, people thought I was crazy, but at the end of the year I had plenty of money to pay for college." She sighed, a whimsical noise that made it clear how proud she had been of herself. "Anyways, I went to college, and on my 21st birthday I was bit. Shame on me, I know. It was during a break, so I was at home with my family. During the night, I had been outside reading a book, as I usually do when I'm bored. That was when the first shift occurred, and I ran. I had never felt so free, but I was also scared. I woke in the den, and I've been here ever since. My parents don't know, and I don't think they ever will. I would hate to experience their rejection, if they ever found out."

~How Some People Might See Me~
"People see me as a hard working, no nonsense girl. That's what I like, too." Arianna laughed, it was tired but sincere. "Nowadays though, a lot of people have told me I have sad eyes. I suppose that's the truth, I just have to live with it. Someday though, my eyes won't be sad. At least, that's what I tell myself every morning." Arianna looked down, popping her fingers to distract herself. "I fidget sometimes too, when I'm in a highly emotional state. Other times I can keep it under control. I love being motivated, when I strive to do something, nothing can stop me or get in my way. I suppose that's a good thing. I've never been a slob, I just can't do that. When everything else in life is out of order, why should your personal space be? That's the way I see it, at least. I'm always busy keeping the house clean, respectable." Arianna shrugged, not afraid to admit that she was a neat freak. "I guess that's it about me."

~Standing Before a Mirror, I See~
"When I stand in front of the mirror I see a girl, a proud young girl." Arianna says, smiling fiercely. "A girl with light brown skin, like coffee with just enough creamer. A girl with thin eyebrows, arched to fit her face. I have long dark brown hair that curls in loose ringlets, a long nose, and full lips. I have deep brown eyes, the tone of the earth I feel beneath my paws when I shift. Nothing about me is overly gorgeous, but I do love my eyes. I'm a bit taller than the rest of my family, standing at a lean 5'8. I'm not at all muscular, but I can hold my own, thank you very much."

~The Beast Hidden Below the Surface~
"My wolf, as much as I hate her, is quite gorgeous. She has a thick fur coat with a few different colors throughout, those being; a sort of auburn, a dark brown, and a bit of black." Arianna thinks back to her wolf form, remember in amazing detail the feeling of her paws as they padded around on the packed dirt outside. "I have the same brown eyes, and yeah that's about it for my wolf side."
