Ustutsin "Wildcat"

Ustutsin "Wildcat" is a Night Elf Female Savagekin that is a member of the Cenarion Heroes as a low ranking Officer. She's often looked upon as a joke, due to her deranged personality and unfitting behaviour.

Savagekins are Druids that have merged with their animal forms, by choice or by force, and are unable to fully go back to their original form. Ustutsin is one of those individuals that have chosen to embrace their shapeshifted state. She does however, unlike most other druids in shapeshifted form, speak perfect Darnassian, Common and even Taur-ahe while shapeshifted.

Her story began long ago, before the War of the Ancients. Born in a divided society among the Lowborne Kaldorei, she spent most of her youth exploring the world. She often ran into the Tauren Tribes and shared stories with them, facinated with their close connection to the Nature itself. She befriended the elder of a tribe she eventually joined for a while, who called her "cikitik mistun" - little cat. This Tauren told her the basics of the various spiritual paths among his people, including Druidism, Shamanism and Sunwalking. When asked to tell more, the elder told her that it was not yet time for her people to learn these arts.

She attended her friend's funeral a few months later and then announced to her new family that she was going to follow her friend's last words spoken to her: "Return to your kin. They will need you." As she returned to the Kaldorei Empire, she witnessed the start of the War of the Ancients.

Joining Malfurion and the Resistance she became one of the many first druids, taking a liking to the Cat Form, eventually joining the Druids of the Prowl as time progressed. But after about two centuries she found herself more drawn to her form, making the choice to stay in it until the end of her days.

As time went on, she continued to travel the now torn world, but often staying around Mount Hyjal, earning her the nickname of the "Wildcat" of Hyjal. Her frequent travels into tauren lands also gave her a new name among the tauren: "Ustutsin" - Cat of the Wild.

Ustutsin posessed the rare ability to be able to Dream - enter the Emerald Dream - whenever she sleeps. Thus, her promise made to Ysera and Cenarius is held. This also allows her to learn new things about Druidism from the various spirits of the Emerald Dream, as well as her fellow Dreaming Druids and Emerald Dragonkin.

In recent times, she's joined the Cenarion Heroes. Their ordeals have forced her to revert to her humanoid form once. But her savagekin nature twisted her form, appearing with a fur covered body with many feline traits such as whiskers, tail and claws.
