With hope in her heart she searches for herself in bravery and battle. ==History== Born in the spring of 1991, Nieves Werra was the child of a well known and admired martial arts teacher in Los Angelos, California. Teaching at the Inosanto Academy of Martial Arts, its founder famed as a student of Bruce Lee himself, Amado Werra spread his masters teachings of Filipino martial arts and passed them to his daughter at a young age. Always friendly and generous, it was a shock to the school to learn he had been murdered. Witnesses say he was defending the victims of an apparent assualt and was gunned down in the street coming home from the academy. His daughter was already present at the scene when police arrived, cradling her father's head in a pool of blood. The act was ruled out as a symptom of gang presence in the area and the murderer was never apprehended. Nieves's mother had divorced Amado several years earlier and gave him full custody of Nieves, not wanting anything more to do with the family. Reluctantly, however, she allowed her to stay at her home, though it wasn't long before the neglect and indifference forced Nieves into the streets. Gifted with a talent for fighting by her father, she joined up with the 18th Street Gang, with the vague hope of finding her father's murderer amongst them. All she finds is torment and a mysterious attack by a feral street dog. At least she thought it was a dog... The next few days change everything however, as the mysogynistic and violent youths of 18th Street, easily provoked by her angry and independent nature, attacked her, triggering a transformation. The police found only fragments of indiscernable flesh and bone amidst the splatter of blood. Nieves ran, ran away from LA and left those horrors behind. She hitchhiked her way to Sacramento, though still branded with the black/blue number "99" (9+9=18) on the inside of her left wrist. Without even a high school degree she lives homeless there without a pack to call upon and uncertainty in her future. Defensive, aggressive, and a short-tempered spit-fire, Nieves is unlikely to make friends anytime soon. <!-- This goes last and put the footer on the page; all user content should go ABOVE this --> {{Bibliography|Parent=Sworn Pack}}{{Werewolf Character}}{{Status Editor |Acknowledges= |Recognizes= |Values= |Respects= |Admires= }} {{#set:Former Member=Sworn Pack|Parent=Sworn Pack}}
