Personal Life:

Masaya is the oldest child of her family. Her parents and younger sister are currently residing at their home village hidden somewhere deep in the lush green forests of Ashenvale. She enjoys shape-shifting into various animal forms to enjoy the beauty of nature. A personal sport of the Nightelf is to jump into bodies of water to explore the depths in sealion form. She often spends many hours swimming within the ocean that food becomes an afterthought.

History:
============

Masaya hails from the village of Kaldras. A small, hidden village in the forest of Ashenvale. She grew up happily not knowing of the constant struggle for land and nature that was being waged between the Silverwing Sentinels and the Warsong Outriders. As she grew amongst her peers the druidic arts were slowly instilled into the young Night elf and her friends by the high druid of the village. What seemed to be natural schooling was in reality a subtle teaching of the art of warfare. Full knowledge to prevent the deforestation and necessary skills were honed to rid the Outriders of Ashenvale were by then made known at her coming of age. She was feral.

Yet, Masaya's true calling came when she stumbled across a battle that took place between Ashenvale and the Barrens. A Dwarven Paladin bravely fought off scores of the Horde whilst protecting a child Night Elf that had wandered off too far from Ashenvale. The culture shock of seeing someone other than her own kind was tossed aside as she leaped into bear form to help. However, the wounds and exhaustion inflicted began to take their toil. The feral forms of bear and cat were doing nothing to stop the pain. The child was wounded and the Paladin far even more so for he was pure protection and had taken the full brunt of all the vicious attacks. His body was bloodied, and bruised yet he bravely fought on. Masaya had never seen such unselfish concern borne from one not of Nightelf heritage. It was then that she fervently prayed to Elune that she had the power to heal her friends. To ignore all physical power and to put aside all the feral parts that were taught to her as a child to fully embrace the healing arts of grace that was restoration.

Elune answered her plea.

It was then as she shifted into tree form for the first time to cast the spell of Tranquility that Masaya felt she had found her true purpose. The battle was quickly turned and the Horde was defeated. The resto-druid smiled warmly at the brave Dwarf named Lightbeard as she took the wailing child into her arms. This was her role now. She would help save Ashenvale in a different way. Not by sheer violence but by healing grace and support.
