Bio: Loa was born in the the city of zydeco (Sonic's equivalent of New Orleans.) her original name was Kyla. Even though she suffered from mild dwarfism she was a smart inquisitive young girl who loved to read, learn, and play. She was well loved by most people who knew her and was very helpful for her age. But one day, around her sixth birthday she fell very ill, and grew worse as the days went by. When there was no hope left and she was nearing death her parents went to one last resort; They went out into the swamps to meet the local voodoo priest Orany. He said he could heal her, and that he would, but for a price, he saw much potential in her, Kyla would need to move in with him and become his apprentice, she would forget her everything that had happened to her before this, and would never see her parents as that again. Having no choice they agreed to his demands and gave up their child, leaving her in the strange swamp man.

When she awoke she had no idea who she was or where she came from, Orany gave her the new name Loa, for it has been the spirits who saved her life, and began to train her as a Mambo. He was like a father and a mentor to her. A rival of Orany, a bocor named Prier and his evil spirit partner Glass wing attacked unexpectedly. Orany told Loa to run as he held off the Crows attacks. Loa did not want to run, but did as she was told. She still dose not know Priers motives for attacking. When Orany fell Loa took up his mantel, she is being hunted by the crow so she wonders looking for a way to defeat Prier before he finds and kills her too.
