♕ personality Malia is a wild child — literally. When she was 9 years old, Malia had an argument with her mother, saying, "I wish you were all dead." Turns out that night was the full moon, and she lost control in the car and started transforming; she believes herself responsible for her mother and sister's death in the car accident. Overcome with guilt and grief, she transformed fully into a coyote to avoid dealing with it; for the next 8 years, she lived in solitude as an animal. This has effected her personality tremendously. Firstly, Malia became accustomed to solitude and not having to abide by social conventions; because of this, her return to civilization was rocky. She played by the rules of the animal kingdom — kill or be killed, abandon (or eat) wounded allies, etc. Throughout the 4th season, she slowly began to improve her social skills. She became much more attached to those she would have left for dead, stating "I'm worried about everyone." In the 5th season, Malia really begins to develop empathy for those around her, even people outside her pack. She especially empathizes with the chimeras she fails to save. For the most part, she's difficult to embarrass. She isn't the self-conscious type, and doesn't really care about the opinions of the few people she's loyal to. She's still learning how to balance the coyote and the girl. She still has a ways to go, but her transition actually went very smoothly for someone who lived as a coyote for years. This is because even though she was physically a coyote, Malia was never quite able to shed her humanity. Her den contained belongings that were completely out of place for a coyote, most notably her younger sister's doll, which she developed an attachment to. She may have been running away from her guilt, but she was never fully able to escape who she was. ♕ abilities strengths. SELF HEALING/CURING. ( self-explanatory; she heals faster than humans and is immune to most diseases. however, she is affected by a weaponized "canine distemper" in 4.07. ) HEIGHTENED SENSES. HEIGHTENED AGILITY/STRENGTH. TAKING PAIN.( werewolves and werecoyotes can absorb some of the pain from another living being through touch. However, then they feel the pain themselves, and they can't take all of it. ) SHIFTING. ( when she wants, Malia can grow fangs and claws. her eyes also turn a pale blue. ) weaknesses. WOLFSBANE. LUNAR ECLIPSE. FULL MOON. ( she's powerful during the full moon, but it also controls her somewhat; she's been granted full control of her shift in Eudio, but is still irritable/antsy/etc. ) MOUNTAIN ASH. ( salt is to demons as mountain ash is to werewolves/werecoyotes — they can't cross a barrier of ash. ) MOONSTONE. ( keeps the effects of the moon out of buildings so she can't turn. ) ELECTRICITY.
