Personality
Boots & Books
Gwen is both incredibly outdoorsy and an excellent student. She tries to wake up early enough that she can go on a hike before heading to her job before school, and always makes sure her homework is done before she heads out to have fun. She actually seems excited to be in school, even. What a nerd.

Nosy Wolf
Gwen cares about other people. She's not always the best at advice, but she thinks she's a great listener and eagerly throws herself into helping others with their problems whenever she can.

Right to the Point
Gwen's experiences have set her up to have very little patience for others beating around the bush and keeping secrets. She's decided that wherever possible, she'll take a blunt, direct approach to any problem affecting the people that she cares about. She won't entertain ideas that she just patently doesn't believe, and will absolutely call people out on their bullshit without hesitation.

She shares a telepathic link with Juno and can see and hear through the familiar if she wishes. While using Juno's senses, Gwen's eyes turn violet and she loses whichever senses she is transferring until she stops channeling them.

Born in West Virginia, Jasmine (not her real name) comes from a long line of demon hunters. From a young age, she was trained to carry on her family's legacy and protect humanity in secret from the threats that they couldn't even see. And for most of her life, she blindly followed that life path, thinking that she was really doing some good in the world.
Unprepared during a routine hunt in upstate Wisconsin, Jasmine was ambushed and assaulted by a pack of werewolves. Left for dead, she was barely saved by some passers by and taken to the hospital. The trauma of the event, both physical and mental, repressed her memories of pretty much every autobiographical memory that she had.
An Awakened doctor at the hospital knew immediately what had happened to Jasmine, and he was prepared to have to cover up her transformation. When it didn't occur, he decided to watch her until she was strong enough to leave. Eventually she was transferred to a medical facility in Polaris Pass, where her needs could be better managed.
She has slowly regained a significant chunk of her memories, and in the meantime is coping with having to confront her own internal biases.
She's living in Polaris Pass now, working as a tour guide and playing up her 'former monster hunter' status for the tourists. She's still coming to grips with the person she wants to be, but has made strides in trying to make amends for her past wrongs.

Growing up with her family in West Virginia, Gwen's life was fairly idyllic. She went on hunting trips with her father, did crafts with her mother, and hung out a lot in the woods with her friends Eric and Anna. Life was great, until it wasn't. A fight, over what she can't remember. Maybe it was her being attracted to girls. Maybe it was something to do with her being a werewolf. The details aren't that important. She got kicked out. Unsure of where to go or what to do, she had a fortunate encounter with a goddess. A real honest to God... god.
Theialia was fantastic, helping transplant Gwen to Polaris Pass, a place she could be herself in and live a life that she might have thought impossible before. She's happy, even if there's a nagging feeling that something is just a little bit off.
