Background:
Hoch grew up in the city to parents who ran a local bakery. During the last uprising, mobs penetrated into their neighborhood and starting looting and burning buildings. She and her family were lucky, as the clothier next door was pillaged and burned, but their home and shop were left unscathed. All through the harrowing night, Hoch could only wish that there was someone to come and protect them.
When Hoch heard of the formation of watch-guards, she knew she had to be part of the team. She told her parents, who while not thrilled that their young daughter was going to be putting herself in harm's way, understood her drive and determination. With their blessing, off she went to train.
During the grueling months of basic training, one thing became very clear to her superiors. While she was very talented and knowledgeable about the city and got along well with the merchants and regular people, she was not use to having a partner. Time and again she would leave her assigned partner behind, or get ahead of them and try to finish the assigned test on her own. In her own words, "They just slow me down!". Beyond this problem, she was a model cadet and graduated at the top of her class.
Her first postings turned out to be somewhat disastrous. Continuing to disdain her partners, Hoch soon gained the reputation of a bad partner. It has gotten to the point that her superiors are thinking of moving her to a permanent station at one of the gates. One of the commanders had the idea of starting a division using animals to assist the watch-guards, and that maybe if she was unable to have a human partner, then maybe an animal companion might be the way to go.
