"Yeah, you keep rolling your eyes at me. Hopefully they get stuck looking into the back of your head so you can check to see if there’s a brain up there…"

- Calli Latrans

Calli Latrans is 2015-introduced and all-around character. The daughter of a coyote trickster: cheeky, cunning, sassy and spunky. Always observing and making trouble for those around her. She craves excitement and adventure in her life the way those gluttons Gus and Helga Crumb crave sweets. A wild one who throws caution to the wind, that crazy coyote... Identifies as a Royal out of respect for her legacy.

Portrayers
Bekka Prewitt (Kitty Cheshire) is the only voice that is fitting to Calli. There would be some modification in the voice acting. The pitch would be slightly deeper with a more smarmy dialect.

Laura Bailey (Ashlynn Ella) would have voiced Calli's mother. If you think this is odd refer to the voice acting she did for Skyrim The Elder Scrolls. Her voice work for Serana is exactly how Calli's mother would sound. Same personality too.

Personality
A girl of dueling personality and moral ambiguity. Calli doesn’t try to hide who she is but her intentions are enigmatic. Her viewpoint is in shades of grey though she does not have her virtues set about and can shift from being beneficial to those around her or toxic, entirely dependent on how the given situation benefits her. There is natural kindness to Calli but her predisposed mean streak dominates over such a trait and for most she comes off as a bully with a calloused attitude who is dangerous to be around.

Calli embraces being a social miscreant and enjoys the finer points of misconduct opting to indulge herself in debaucheries outside school perimeters as a favorite pastime. Calli is pretty childish but carries herself as an adult given the nature of her upbringing that enforced her to grow up fast.

She is on high on arrogance and developed a superiority complex stemming from her powerful ancestry. She is confident in her abilities as a trickster and views the masses of Ever After as nothing more than toys for her to play with. She preys upon many with ease usually choosing to do so psychologically with a tongue as sharp as her wit. Her favorite flavor of dupes however are bullies or those trying to seem "bigger and badder" than her. She will go after them sadistically with wild antagonism that gets out of control. Giving into competitive nature she's not above dealing physical harm to these special cases as they need to be taught a lesson on whose "the biggest and baddest" all around. Her adept use of magic coupled with her inborn talents as a fighter, Calli has made it known that of all the fairytale tricksters she is the last anyone would ever want to run into. Enemies she has made are not even deemed as such but rather petty nuisances as they are easily put in their place without Calli really having to do much of anything to beat them.

A skilled manipulator Calli has talked herself out of expulsion. Twice. By feeding off of the headmasters pride filled disposition of "following one's destiny" she has fooled the headmaster into thinking she just takes to her role as the next coyote trickster seriously even though her pranks have been a total danger to many. So much so that the faculty decided not to wait for Calli to push her luck a third time and Baba Yaga specially crafted a cursed collar for Calli to wear that keeps her and her potent coyote magic under strict restriction. Her complacency has lead her to get a bad reputation with the teachers for being so disrespectful. Fierce and fearless she is one who does not like being told what to do.

Calli is feral, experiencing emotions in their extremities never expressed outwardly rather concealed under an estranged stoicism as they are too unstable to even fully form. Instead this manifests into her being bit of a wanderer who seeks adventure and has lead her to live bit of a vagabond lifestyle. A seasoned adventurer Calli is cunningly adaptive, deducting analysis with supreme accuracy and walks out of even the most treacherous scenarios unscathed. It almost seems as if Calli holds some sort of death wish with the coniderable amount of trouble she likes to get into when not causing it. Her favorite dancing partner is the devil and she is his lapdog.

While decently sociable she doesn't care a whole lot about interactions deeming most too boring to even try to talk to. She'd much rather observe the populace than deal with them. Her unruly and snide behavior make it difficult for Calli to develop relationships but once they have formed Calli is very good about maintaining them because of the unbending loyalty she harbors. The friends Calli has made know her as someone who is cheeky, playful, flirtatious even and full of fun ideas. Those who are especially close know the capacity Calli has to be compassionate even.

Is indeed a Royal for her own personal drive and pride but still supports the Rebel cause. Calli has respect for those who do not blindly follow pre-written fates like sheep and is a firm believer in personal freedom.

She does find the whole Royal/Rebel war to be quite funny and often enjoys the conflict...well enjoys conflict as a whole. Calli will purposefully start said conflicts but never directly participates in them. She'd much rather watch the fireworks fly while she snickers in the shadows. She views a lot of things as jokes and her sense of humor tends to be twisted.

Hobbies
When Calli allows herself to settle down she reads. A lot. About anything and everything to feed her unending curiosity about the world around her. Her favorite kind of books being the ones that teach her something. She self-educates herself on a variety of topics but is passionate about ones that interest her the most. Calli is of high intelligence, surprisingly cultured as well but denies these qualities about her. School bores her for the reason she feels she is too smart for her grade having already learned a lot about the subjects she is studying. She never studies still managing to maintain good grades with the vast amount of knowledge she has.

Calli loves to play games all sorts of games (vidoegames, card games, board games, mind games...) really but her love for them is stilted due to her being a sore loser. She will become violently vindictive upon a loss.

She is an avid guitar player (acoustic) and loves to sing. Enjoys it even more when her coyote brethren join in and howl with her music. Calli has a trademark guitar which is with her almost constantly, adorned with eagle feathers. Calli also plays the flute in Musice-ic class. Her Thronecoming gift was a hand crafted wooden flute from her mother. She plays this instrument frequently as well. She likes music quite a lot and her tastes are fairy broad on genres.

Adventuring and wandering is top on the list of things she loves. Calli hates staying in one place for too long and may even get depressed by it. She is rarely ever in school grounds and spends a vast majority of her life finding new and exciting places, creatures and many other things. It is important to Calli to lead an active lifestyle for boredom will result in her breaking stuff, chewing on furniture and deliberately start fights amongst other students, pitting them against each other or destroying them herself for the sake of having some simulation.

Calli makes a personal investment causing chaos around the world of Ever After for the sake of making her role well known. Her mischief making is not limited to just the high school. She is constantly on the move, leaving in her wake populations confused and angry by her devious antics.

Sports
Calli is of course extremely athletic and much stronger than she looks. She is captain of the Lacrosse team at Ever After High.

She also participates on the volleyball team and is a force to be reckoned with as the team’s libero (defensive position who keeps the ball in play).

Appearance
Calli stands at the meager height of 5'2, slim and very sinuous. Her hands are adorned with sharp claws. She has medium length light brown hair that is semi-wavy. Her hair contains a streak of white on her bangs and some streaks predominant on the right side of her head. She is tan with slanted chartreuse eyes that shine like stars entering the atmosphere. Calli's clothing choices reflect on her demeanor as a "punk". Ripped jeans coupled with scuffy boots and plain sneakers. When the occasion arises Calli has no qualms with gussying herself up.

Her usual outfit is a fur lined blue short vest over a long yellow shirt with orange paw prints on the front, faded gray skinny jeans with rips in them and brown mid-top belted boots.

The cursed collar is her shame and constant reminder to all of her delinquency so Calli ops to wear a burgundy bandana to hide it. The collar itself is crafted of thick troll hide leather with three enchanted chains encircling it. One copper, one silver, one gold. The collar will come off when Calli graduates from Ever After High.

An adorably impudent but deceptive outward appearance.

Fairy Tale - Native American Legends
"Coyote stories are usually humorous in nature, and many of them contain what today is considered 'adult humor.' Other Plains Coyote legends are cautionary tales about the consequences of bad behavior and the dangers of interacting with irresponsible people. Although Coyote usually either narrowly avoids death or returns to life after being killed, the mortals around him are not always so lucky"

How the Story Goes:
The Coyote is iconic in Native American culture and is largely influential. This powerful spirit can be seen in different lights from vies that change from each Native American tribes' legends.

Coyote is a figure who would be classed as a deauteragonist character. The animal can be seen as a cultural hero or a metaphor for bad behavior or is simply there to be humorous. The Coyote is even prominent in creation myths and aids the gods on creating the stars and first humans. There are tribal legends that even portray the Coyote as a god as well as a powerful animal totem, a paradoxical one at that.

How does Calli come Into It:
Calli's bloodline has her traced back to Southwest Native Americans but her story is not restricted to those folklores. The legends of the Southwest tribes have her destiny going every which way on multiple paths. But for Calli's moral ambidexterity it's perfect.

Quirks

 * Howls when she laughs too hard
 * Does/says shocking things just to enjoy the reactions.
 * Hardly ever has a genuine smile, is always just smirking with an undertone of menace
 * Calli's coyote ears seem to be always twitching, picking up on even the slightest noise. Like if someone farts in class she'll know exactly who it is.
 * Becomes anxious and cranky if she sits still for too long.
 * Is a class clown.
 * Always seems to forget to clean the blood off after a hunt.... many think she is secretly a serial killer (Blondie Lockes).
