Avantika was exactly sure what she was doing as she raced towards a stranger's battle cry beside her pack. She'd joined the raid party feeling sure of that decision. She'd been told quite clearly that the fight would only be practice. So just like a normal spar she'd do with the pups, just... Different people. That was what she'd expected. There had also been the not-insignificant pull of pride that her pack had considered her good enough to participate. But it was easy to be certain when the ramifications of a decision were far off. Now it was showtime. She forced herself to focus on the present. The slap of her paws on the earth, the puff of her breath. Reminding herself, over and over, that she was in the world and she wouldn't be able to sink into the ground or blow away like a dandelion fluff even if she wanted to. She was here. She was fighting. Kaata flew above her. They'd already decided that the little hawk would stay in the air and use her bird's eye view (literally) to tell about anything happening that she would not be able to see in the heat of battle. Ulric, Artorias, and Rudy had already flung themselves into fights by the time she arrived. She spotted a dark wolf with fiery markings (Lament) who didn't seem to be fighting anyone yet. While he was very tall, he didn't have too much meat on his bones, and he wore less armor than some of the Ashen wolves. Was that a good sign, or was she just trying to make herself feel better about her decision? She didn't know. But regardless she charged forward towards him, growling like she knew exactly what she was doing. She couldn't show her fear. That wouldn't help her here. Once she reached him, she would attempt to grab his right foreleg, just above the bracer. She wouldn't draw blood unless he moved very quickly and recklessly, but she had to have a hold. She would pull, hard, with most of her strength on the leg, trying to get the man off balance.

Avantika is prone to panic attacks. Keep in mind when roleplaying with her.
Her companions, a female sharp-shinned hawk named Kaata and a black-thighed falconet named Kit can be assumed to always be close by unless otherwise stated.
