Kendra has much better control than her peers; though she once caused a three-day blizzard entirely by accident, those days were long gone by the time Rondell tracked her down and offered to train her. She accepted his offer mostly out of a desire to be the best possible at what she did, which mainly encompasses ice and anything else cold. She has been under his tutelage since the age of seven due to her precocity, and for the most part has gotten along well with his other apprentices, but his current set tends to grate on her, Mayluck especially. Many of them, as well as a few others in the past, first demonstrated the full extent of their power in some explosive act, which makes Kendra feel more than a little inadequate. After all, her power must be weaker if she can rein it in so easily, or so her reasoning goes. (In fact she's merely better at controlling herself in general, but hell if she'll believe that.)
Living and learning in the company of people she perceives as such giants has bred a considerable amount of resentment in Kendra, and she has become much more power-hungry than she was when she first started her apprenticeship. She has withdrawn from her peers for the most part and responds to their concern with anger at their perceived criticism. She listens to Rondell, but only because she knows he can help her reach the full extent of her power. Mayluck has tried to reach out to her without much luck, as she finds the other's exuberance exhausting and irritating, and once even killed her plants with a burst of frost, though this did make Kendra feel a bit guilty. On the other hand, if she doesn't control her jealousy and learn to work with her former friends again, she may soon turn to such acts without remorse. And then even Rondell might not be able to get through to her.
