If there was something known as 'thrift store chic', Juniper would be the perfect example of that. All of the weretiger's clothes are secondhand, consisting of faded oversized band t-shirts, flannel, and holey jeans. A more flattering term would be 'grunge', although she doesn't go out of her way to look dirty. Just as though she's swimming in fabric.
The girl herself is skinny, but not undernourished. As a result of her beanpole-esque figure, she looks taller than she really is. She keeps her curly hair short in a pixie cut, as she doesn't have the time or patience to manage it.
The best way to describe Juniper is 'intense'. After a lifetime of struggle, she does not do things by half-measures, but feels the powerful drive to excel. She has screwed up enough to shed any sense of perfectionism, and as such, she simply expects the people around her to keep up.
She is energetic, always in motion, from doing things from with her hands, to testing her balance on the nearest obstacle. She is whip smart for her age, even if she can't always articulate herself. Her emotions run deep and strong, but she is not able to share them.
Juniper transforms into a bipedal Siberian tiger. She looks distinctly juvenile, with untidy fur and puppy paws. Like her human form, she is skinny and coltish, but that is only relative to other shifters. She is still eight feet at the shoulder and strapped with muscle and destructive fury.
Big brother figure, friend, one-way Concordance (For now). June and Max met early in 2021 after she dropped her shoe in a storm drain. He's become a pivotal part of turning her life around and she would do anything for his ma.
Ekho is responsible for Juniper's first kiss under the mistletoe during the Winter Festival in 2021. After the fey tried to steal from the weretiger, things turned sour.
Roommate, friend. Billy is pretty much Her Wizard, at least as far as she's concerned. She thinks he's an idiot about magic, but the important part is that they're there for each other when shit hits the fan.
Their first meeting wasn't the most auspicious when Juniper tried to spook the Inquisitor by shifting in the office. Despite that, Theo gave her the benefit of the doubt and did something new: believed in her. She considers him a friend but regards him as a father figure.
Juniper is familiar with the Codes of Conduct, the Exchange, and most forms of magic.
- Born in Richmond, VA. Only child. At the age of four, Juniper was diagnosed with terminal illness.
- Parents tried absolutely everything, but her outlook was never good. Trips to the hospital consumed her life, but she still developed into a happy child, gaining the mental strength to withstand the battery of tests, procedures, and pain that accompanied her illness.
- Unfortunately, her condition only worsened and her parents turned to more esoteric means. At some point, they connected with a man who claimed to be able to enchant Juniper with the power of a tiger and heal her. At this point, they were desperate and the claim, as insane as it was, warranted a 'why the hell not'.
- It turned out the man was a kind old weretiger. After proving his power to Juniper's parents, they explained the situation to her. To their relief, the little girl agreed, even if she didn't fully understand.
- During the next full moon, Juniper transformed into a monstrous tiger cub and from then on, the kind old tiger did what he could to mentor her.
- Her illness and frailty disappeared overnight and her family was overjoyed. Due to both afflictions, she never really had the chance to be a normal kid, but at least she was healthy now. Healthy, unbelievably strong, and on a hair-trigger.
- Despite her mentor's best efforts, as a child she could not quite control her shifts, or keep her mind during them, and disaster struck.
- One day, Mr. and Mrs. Gray disappeared. Juniper never found out what happened to her parents. Not long after, the Exchange appeared and took the old weretiger away. She hasn't seen him since.
- Since then, she's been in the Exchange's system, a young orphaned supernatural. She learned a lot about her abilities and even developed new ones, but never managed to develop control.
- There were a lot of blackouts. A lot of incidents. Unwilling to take any more chances, the Exchange Tongue-Tyers took over. Juniper was enchanted with 'words of power'. Speak these secret words and no matter her form, she will fall unconscious. The spell appears as a crown of white-blue runes around her head and only Exchange agents know it.
- Things only got worse as she grew up. As a teen, she became angry and emotional, resentful of the Exchange, despite the way they tried to foster and help her.
- Eventually, she stopped trying to gain control and just allowed the animal brain to take over. There were more incidents and the Exchange branded her as a juvenile hazard.
- Now she is in Easthaven on a kind of 'parole'. She was a child before, so she received leniency, but now as an adult, her lack of control has led the Exchange to look at other methods of containment, things she would much rather avoid. She lives at Lethe House and attends community college in the Lower Fens. She's still trying to find a direction in life, while learning how to channel her incredible power.
