Fears: Making new friends losing friends whom she thinks of as family, walkers in hoards, walkers evolving to be more human-like, hospitals, making medical runs for her insulin, blood sugar levels dropping and no one to help her(even though she has learned to manage it okay for he time)  

Overall Personality: Kaila is the type of person who keeps all her own emotions bottled up inside and creates war within herself, even though in her life prior to the walker outbreak she was a counselor as well as a children's teacher. She's very strong willed and will continue moving forward even when her own mental capacity is at its weakest.

Kai is a very intelligent young lady within her homestead library, where she spends a lot of her time studying and yearning to help people, knowing that there's people out there needing people like her. Ever since Kai lost her son and husband to walkers she has been obsessed with the idea to want to help people. 

Kai being born native american and raised into a native lifestyle knows a lot about the outdoors and how to hunt thanks to her father, and she know how to skin, gut and cook wildlife thanks to her mother. Tradition of Cherokee (her people anyways) Kai is also skilled in making clothing (tanning hides and whatnot) from animals as wells as weapons including finding flint and making arrowhead from the flint for ammo for her long bow, she practices her shot ever day. (target practice) 

Kai mother also taught her the ways of a medicine woman and Kai learned plenty about herbal medicine the work for, sleep, visions, pain, infection and much more.

Kai has a very caring nature about her, she does anything in her power to help people whom of course deserve the help. Over the years, she has gotten pretty good at reading people those people who actually need her help and then those people who want to buy her help and enslave her or that's how she feels. There's also the cannibalistic people out there that has came and tried to take refuge at her haven and when she turned a blind eye those people has her tied up in ropes hanging upside down from rafters wanting to cook her alive, that's an entire story of it's own and thankfully she had someone there to help her out of that situation but only by the skin of her teeth. 

Kai loves gardening and thinks it therapeutic (personally) but gardening is also a way of life when she lives and when the ground is good and the weather it right she can grow the most beautiful vegetable and flowers a person has ever seen (in her own opinion that is) 

Kai was once a teacher among her people in her tribe and those families whose children yearned for a education was offered freely by Kai. She did attend college and received a 4 year bachelor's  degree in the science of education. She continues to study from books to this day to learn more to hopefully pass on to our younger generations.

Kai is a free spirit and uses her free time to meditate and become one with nature (because that's all we have anymore right?) she sets aside about a hour a day just to hear the wind breeze through the leave and branches, or the rain trickle into a puddle from a nearby houses tin roof. She has also collect her fair share of livestock as well honey bees and she's constantly defending them from invaders (walkers, people of poor judgement who just want to take and not earn) Kai has no time for those type of people.

Kai also believes that one day these 'walkers' will evolve learning survivalists tactics of their own, so she's constantly preparing for days, weeks and even months to come. Creating her haven into a stronghold build its walls thicker and higher and even some places are underground for extra protection (which began as just a small storm cellar) 





History: Kai was born on a reservation in North Carolina, she's almost full blooded Native American besides the small percent of her grandfather's rebellion to a beautiful Irish woman. Kai was raised to two loving devoted parents and their only child, so Kai felt the need to always overachieve throughout her entire life. 

Kai being raised to a native lifestyle but not ignorant to a modern lifestyle was able to learn the best of both worlds and while she was young learning all the survivalists ways-of-life, little did she know that she would have to put every ounce of her survivalist knowledge to the test when the world went dark and the monsters rose from their graves, walking corpses by the thousand.

When the world did go dark Kai had her son whom was 3 and her husband, she was naive to everything going on around her and didn't want to believe the world was coming to end, she doubted the walkers ability to tear someone to shred with their teeth because she once knew all the corpses walking blindly around her. She let her guard down and the walkers got her son first, then her husband next and all she did was run. You think her a coward, but at that time she was ignorant to what life had become and seemed like overnight. 

Kai had lost everything and everyone and she needed to gather some supplies and go south maybe to an Island somewhere she thought for the longest, but really she made it as far as Tennessee, near the Alabama state line and found what used to be a old prison turned museum. With a few people tagging along with her they were able to build this place into a haven with greenhouses, small cottages, huge bricked wall made from limestone which was found in a nearby cave which also contained a fresh water spring. Eventually those people fell to, mainly to the cannibals who invaded their haven and they almost ate Kai to if it wasn't for he Shaman friend being there to help. 

Kai now is constantly, building up this southern haven and only letting in the people whom she trusts and it takes a while before they can even enter that front gate.
