She was given her name before she actually became an otaku which her mom felt was ironic (Awide= Anime + Woodoo). Also had an unhealthy obsession with anthro bunnies, so, she made a spell to become a were-rabbit.
She loves it, also, yes, she's a witch doctor so be careful around her.
Be even more careful if she's in anthro form, she gains a large amount of leg strength, agility and her libido becomes "aggressive" towards people she likes. Or if you're lucky, you're her friend and she's not in heat, she becomes a heck of a lot cuddlier.

Awide sounds like "A-Wii-Dey" when you say her name and not "A-wide".
