Haley was a slave and form of entertainment to poachers who captured her as a cub. She escaped and found her way to the Thedas pride who welcomed the adolescent. She proved herself a worthy and incredibly strong member of the pride and quickly rose to the top. Despite this, she shows many physical and mental scars from her time imprisoned, but she doesn't share much of her history with her pride members.
She takes any chance to kill humans which has earned her a sinister reputation among their villages. One night, after attacking a village and making off with several villagers, she was tranquilized and while asleep had a radio collar placed on her. Now she is plagued with following humans at every turn. Her pride has attempted to take the collar off, but the humans have attached it well. So now she's almost constantly having to chase away the humans who follow her.
4/8/18: Haley is grief-stricken when she finds out about Grheene's death. She was out looking for humans to kill when he died and she didn't get the chance to say her goodbyes. Humans were the reason her life was in a spiral, to begin with, and now Grheene's death has further pushed her onto the unstable path with her hatred of humans. The pride almost never sees her now as she's always out looking for more victims.
4/16/18: Carswell III's death had little effect one Haley. She rarely talked or interacted with the elderly lioness and had little reason to. She didn't know Carswell III but she still attended her ascension.
4/25/18: While Haley wasn't happy that Queen Fantasia was dead, she was relieved. The queen never understood her hateful passion for humans and often tried to disrupt Haley from her human hunts. The two never really saw eye to eye on any matter, especially with Haley's rude attitude. Neither gave the other respect they were due and so verbal spats were commonplace between them. If she had the option, Haley wouldn't have even attended her ascension. But because that would be borderline treasonous, she went, though she didn't grieve like her pride members. Even at the ascension, she could see everyone beginning to turn against each other. They all wanted to be Trevelyan's queen. Haley couldn't care less about going after the title herself, but she did hope whoever became queen would be a lioness who didn't mind her human hunting hobbies.
4/27/18: Haley did not see Trevelyan's proposal to Ozarka coming, mostly because she had been out hunting all the time and partly due to her not caring. However, she is happy for both of them and hopes their marriage can stop all the squabbling and fighting. She also doubts Ozarka has anything negative to say about her hunting sport.
4/29/18: You see (A)Haley strutting around, chest held high. As you walk up, she tells you that this pride is the greatest pride in the lands! Well now, damn straight!
11/2/2020: Haley retires from hunting at the age of 14 years old.
