[SBLOCK=Background]Aiyana was born into the Shriikirri-Ouah tribe and was taught about horsemanship from an early age, though the wise ones determined that she had a stronger link to the nature than most of her tribesmen. Through her youth she learned both the way of the hunter and the way of the mystics, forming a bond with the nature itself, gaining understanding and insight into mysteries that others may never even imagine.
She befriended an injured wild stallion and nursed it back to health, and during the process she and the horse formed a powerful bond and in doing so the totem spirit found Aiyana worthy and granted her it's gift. The stallion she named Sowingwa.
She recently left her tribe behind after finding out her father was arranging a marriage to one of the chief's sons. But Aiyana felt no interest, believing Hotuakhaa to be one of the best hunters, capable of wrestling and subduing a bear bare-handed, yet at the same time he was also as dumb as a rock.[/SBLOCK]
Would Saktouk's heritage / education through his mother qualify him for the Shriikirri-Quah Totem Spirit feat? In that case, I'd swap out Improved Initiative, of course, since a +8 initiative seems like overkill to me (and I've been debating swapping it for Toughness in any case).
