Appearance

Average in build, but rather tall, Summer has a presence about her that's probably more about attitude than appearance.
When not straightened, her dark hair comes to about her shoulders, but is longer if she does.
Hair gets done a variety of ways, and sometimes after a shift she'll lighten it up for a few weeks.
Wears whatever she wants, ranging from comfortable to flashy. Dresses rather nice for work.
Believes she looks fabulous, sincerely does not give a crap if you disagree.
Makeup is for her own pleasure, not yours. Okay, maybe a little for yours.
Having spent a while too long as a hyena after traumatic events, her eyes are now permanently a slightly unreal shade of green (hex #11c073)

Personality

Headstrong, opinionated, and loud
Tends to be brutally honest, unless something legitimately needs to be kept quiet, speaks her mind
Rough in her mannerisms and affections, but very genuine
Friendly, bold, extroverted - Lives by a 'live and let live' way of thinking, but will absolutely bust you up if you give her grief
Considers herself fearless, but is not without weakness
Street smart more than book smart
Dominant personality type, but doesn't have to be top dog so long as she agrees with top dog
Can be reckless and ridiculous, self-centered in that her own wants and needs are foremost in her quick decisions
Joyful, hard to drag down with bad news, but can be quick to offend and has the temper to go with it when she is
Think she can take you in a fight--might be right, but has no formal training
Loyal as hell
A very good person, though she doesn't actively think of herself like that per se, and she might be a little too lenient towards her friends

History

Was born in Washington State with several older half-brothers and eventually one not-much-younger full-blooded brother.
Grew up kinda tough because of so many brothers but was loved and never felt out of place.
Was a bit rowdy in school, but generally liked and came and went from groups of friends easily.
Discovered she could control animals when she was fourteen. Shared this information to anyone she trusted when it came up, but mostly found idle amusement in it.
Graduated high school, attending college for a while, thinking to get a degree in marine biology but eventually dropped out when she just got bored studying. Started out as a bank teller and found she could make decent enough money if she moved up there even without the education.
Was on a camping trip to the Redwoods in California just before she turned 30 when she met a strange looking hyena with bright blue eyes. Thought she could control it, couldn't, got bitten instead.
Was home by time she shifted for the first time, took a while to make sense of it with no local Cackle to find her.
Met other weres (wolverines primarily), put information together on her own, took it all in reasonable stride because 'shit happens.'
Decided to move to Colorado for work, spurred on when she got wind that there may have been a Cackle present in the area.
Never finds the cackle, but finds Pete
Pete makes a cackle, but some people had to die first. We don't worry about it!
Summer accidentally bites and turns someone down the line after being made Second.
This cascades to results in Pete unmaking the cackle and trying to kill Summer and Lora while she does so, but thankfully she does not succeed.
Broken for a while, Summer runs off to be a hyena. Loses her home, her job, her natural eye color. Basically gives up for a while. Gets help from a vampire for a bit but...
After meeting a different vampire who feels more on her level, she decides to get her life back together. Sorta, anyway.
