Nestling

Born in a family of bandits, Led by her father  Shearwater a soldier that retired that go in his own way  and her mother scoria , and the group mostly consists of familiars that deserted from war as well.  robbing and  attacking anyone could be  an enemy kingdom or   the one they were born, they were  mostly wanted in all places so they  had to   be in move  most of the time, just 1 week after scoria had laid her eggs she got ambushed by few gryphus and killed in the spot, leaving shearwater  to lead by himself the group, the 3 eggs were now taken care by her aunt echium.

Then the  3 babies hatched  Crocus, aster and mandi than at this time we're just tiny beans of pink completely blind,deaf and defenseless, they would be   supervised and taken care by all  family of the group , her first 3 months would be just  seeing how all her family moved non stop seeking the less conflicted and desolated places of the continent avoiding any enemy soldiers or guards even of their own kingdom   to be able to set up in peace but food was scarce  and  as criminal they couldn't just buy food in the villages or capital so they deeply depend on  foraging and hunting by themselves or stealing high amounts of food of other people  and  mandi and siblings most of the time fight to get the most part of food,  would improve a bit when the family would find a secret place  enough to farm little amounts of food  to survive, but they had to be careful and stealthy if raiding   a place the enemy could track them to their secret  basement and  ruin all their home.

As she got older and her senses started to develop she became more playful and aware of her surroundings, playing with her  brother Aster but her dad always told her that she would never go far away from home.

Fledgling

School wasn't an option right now, so most basic things like foraging,hunting and farming and even flying were teach by her familiars as well learned  very early how to craft and handle tools as well  teaching them the usual opportunistic and thievish mentality of the family, and when the bandits had to go  hunt or  raid some place, the little ones were left in care with her auntie echium, the little Mandi  was so foolish of the world out there and only knew barely by the things that said her dad  and how dangerous the world it's  far from the territory, still she was intrigued and  curious of what things you could find  away from this place, when she was bored always take the opportunity to craft things with her creativity up with sticks, leaves and rocks  and carve through wood and bones to make toys, it was poorly made but she loved to play with them along her brother aster, imagining themselves   exploring the world while finding amazing treasures and fighting monsters.

Until one day, mandi and aster heard some strange cries coming from the  plains near home and in some distraction of aunt they went towards the sound just to find a unknown avus never before seen for them, it was a kid like them but bright green and long arms and legs, and decided to play with them near the place, later on their parent would show and bring him back not before thanking the 2 kids  to find his lost child, this would be her first interaction with another avus more than her family, she would be surprised to see the kid in there the other day in company of their parent and both excited the 3 kids would play  in here all mornings when dad and fam were gone, and auntie  fell asleep like always, and that until 1 week later when conflict would start going close to home and dad would catch them with the stranger kid, the family of bandits had to start travel in search of  a new place again and now the 2 kids were grounded now a bit sad and scared of dad infuriated face.

At her 8 months  she and her brothers would  finally see new places and food was getting scarce once again, by the coming months , traveling was  the usual and  her only world was  her family and the enemies out there, improving her crafting skills at  her 11 months she would become already fairly skillful on crafting weapons  and tools with things she found and copper tools that her family stole  and smith, one of the best of the group for her age her dad comparing to the  dexterousness of her deceased mother

Subadult

The young mandi along her brother would join the fam  with the work and her incredible ability in crafting and   aster's muscle we're already pretty useful, but that wouldn't be for too long when that  day happened and the  family got ambushed by a group of  plains guards trying to steal valorous jewelry being only her and aster the only that managed to escape  as they were  the ones that most far away were, it was didn't kill them of course  but they would go to prison yes or yes and they're already known for their things so they wouldn't leaving  for a while, she was mad  and she was clearly determined to make a plan so  her family could escape but it was risky and their only option was to  go, the 2  young lings would meet a uncle "Scilla" that wasn't  a criminal like the rest  and was  just a chef in the capital of the rainforest kingdom, they would bring them to live with them as well start bringing  Mandi and aster  to school.

And school was  boring, teaching things she already knew  by memory in exception quite few things and history, but there's was  one  good thing in going in there, was the  view of a familiar face that they hadn't seen for a long time,  it was  them the lemur guy that they played as  a kids, and they quickly recognized  mandi and aster, and become friends rapidly and these 3 well.... would become a circus in a school, Annoying classmates and teachers, stealing food and things from them etc etc it was not until they got called out that they had stop or else get kicked of school, kids and parents would start   to  dislike them and her problems would only  get bigger when she graduated.

Adult

The 3 would become partners in crime and criminals not so long after they graduated, the war was over, so was fairly easier to travel and they were known for stealing, scamming,attacking, and lying  mandi and friend's reputation was only for the worse and any tool,jewel,weapon,food or valorous in general was in their target everyone dislike them and  they had to move constantly like those days to avoid being caught  she was intelligent and creative, and well... their friends were just  bunch of himbos and some of the plans always end up in failure almost getting caught  notorious times only in  the first year.
