Other memories/events that still affect her and why: When she first met Pachamama because they became friends for life
Past failures she would be embarrassed to have people know about and why: When she was a pup, Abby accidently lit her tent on fire. I think that's pretty self explanatory.
Biggest role model: Oliver
Why: Oliver is the leader of the warriors and taught her how to fight
Biggest disillusions from childhood: Arabica only ever had one disillusion. Arabica heard a lot about this wonderful fire starter. When she finally tried it, it didn't work as well as she thought and she threw it in her tent. That is also how she started that fire.
Backstory: When Abby was a 6 months old, her parents died in a freak storm. She ran out of her destroyed house and climbed the mountains for refuge. She stumbled upon the secret tribe, working together to fend off the storm's destruction. She slept in a little snow burrow she had made. At night she climbed out and huddled near fire. Oliver found her shivering there. He brought her to the leader, Zeplin, and his mate, Jenda. They were the parents of Pachamama. They were the same age and were raised together by Jenda. Pach and Abby were instant friends, and still are.
