Taifa used to be very friendly and outgoing, she loved spending time with her family but liked more wandering around but she, like now, was ambitious and did everything to be a leader; her personality changed, she is manipulative but is able to hide her feeling very well, so she gives an idea of herself that is different than what she really is; a thing that she hates about herself is that she always keeps her promises, even if she is forced to.
History:
Taifa and her sister Terra were the two only daughters of the leaders of a caribou herd in the north. Taifa's father, since he didn't had a son to give the leadership, decided to secretly observe the attitude of the two girls, to choose which one should have been the right one. Taifa got to know this and tried to be as nice and generous ever but, when the day of the choice arrived, he father didn't choose her. Taifa was disappointed and angy at her family, he sister had nothing special and she really didn't know why she got the leadership. She ran away, she wanted to be alone with herself. Near a river she met a young male, named Caius. She was too angry to talk to him but he eventually managed to know what happened to her. He promised her that he would never do such an unfair act to her. Taifa felt hope and love for the first time. She and Caius promised to take care of eachothers but, even if they loved eachothers, they couldn't meet in public, Caius was a loner, if Taifa's father would have seen him, he would have chased him away so, the two secretly met when nobody could see them. Taifa and Caius made up a plan to take over the her but the plan needed time. First, they waited the natural death of Taifa's parents, who were already old when she met Caius, then, once her sister and mate, Argo, became the new leaders, the plan could start. Unfortunately, her sister had a kid from her mate sooner than Taifa expected but this didn't stop the two. A very hard winter helped them because Terra and Argo weren't able to find enough food and had to move the herd south. Of course, the herd didn't wanted to leave their homelands. After being close to a man's farm, the herd stopped and tried to live there. Unfortunately, many members were caught and improseoned on an artificial herd or, worst, killed. Taifa and Caius led the two leaders near the farm, right into a trap. Argo was instantly killed while Terra was caught. In that moment, Terra understood her sister's intentions but asked her to at least take care of her son, Tuktu. Taifa had to accept. She returned to the herd saying that the old leaders were killed and that now, she and Caius, who appeared from the wood, would be the new ones. Taifa hated heading south but since there was no food, that was the only choice. They soon arrived on a big forst, where there was enough food for everyone. Taifa met the leader of those lands, The Great Prince, who allowed them to stay after hearing from Taifa a more tragic version of the story. The herd was still unhappy. Taifa started to like that place, it was warmer and with more food, perfect for her. She talked to Caius about this and they decided to take over the forest. Of course, good plans needs time. They would wait and strike backduring another winter, since caribous were stronger than deers and other animals in that season. All the herd seemed to like the idea but she preferred to not tell anything to her nephew Tuktu, he was spending too much time with the forest's animals and she didn't liked it. She could barely stand the young caribou, due to being his mother's twin, she is very similar to him and is often mistaken for his mother, whom she really hates, but she had promised to her sister to take care of him. Since he was spending so much time with the native animals in there, he could have been an useful part of her plan.
