Waterborn, aka Gretchen ten Huisen, is a Predator King member of the Cold River Hunters pack in Chicago, Illinois.
Overview[]
Gretchen ten Huisen was born en route to the United States from the Netherlands, aboard a ship in the Atlantic; when she later underwent her First Change, her werewolf name was a logical one. Gretchen has a seeming affinity for water; she's in tune with spirits of the water, especially those near the shores of Lake Michigan. The young woman also likes just being in and around water, no matter how brackish or how clean. Even more than the other werewolves in her pack, she's tense and ill at ease around the human herd, so she avoids dealings with humans she's not permitted to kill. Gretchen is a creature of primal instincts and killing force, an attack animal that is leashed only by her alpha's word. She's devoted to her pack, especially Luc, and they make sure her basic needs are met.
Gretchen has an extremely athletic build; she's of average height with blondish red hair and blue eyes. Her skin is fair and has the occasional freckle. Although not huge, she has a large personality and a commanding presence. Unless forced to appear in public, she shuns clothes (often preferring wolf form to keep warm) or wears a buffalo robe that she stole some years back.
