Name: Senka Meaning: a Serbian and Croatian name meaning “shadow” Gender: Female Age: Young Adult Physical Characteristics: blood-red eyes and a coat the color of shadows. Obtained: Gift from Ash RP Color: default Pack: Polum'ya Vataga (as soon as it’s official) Rank: Kazkar (Storyteller) Status: Wanderer Personality: Exceptionally intelligent, and therefore plagued by a restless mind, Senka is ever-seeking things to satiate her never-ending curiosity. Generally, this takes the form of relentlessly pursuing the stories of every wolf and place she encounters; however, during her journey she has developed a bit of a wicked streak. This wily femme has lost a bit of her natural inclination to avoid conflict and instead enjoys stirring things up for the sake of entertaining herself and seeing how others react. Only making things more frustrating for those she encounters, she is laid back enough that it is nearly impossible to ruffle her feathers, no matter the situation. Aiding Senka in her pursuits is her silver tongue, with which she can talk her way out of almost anything, despite her penchant for calling it like she sees it. To top it all off, this wolf has an unnatural amount of luck. Whatever happens, she always lands on her paws. Beneath the cleverness and amusement, however, lies a more serious side to this wolf. Where her respect is earned, Senka has an exceptionally strong sense of honor and duty. Foremost among these lies her duty as storyteller. She takes this very seriously, both because she loves it like nothing else, and because she would never dishonor Bryanni and her teachings by shirking it. About:Native to a rich territory, Senka is often called upon to defend it. At such times, she is just as fierce as the rest of her pack. Fighting alongside them, she moves like a wraith, striking and disappearing before the enemy knows what hit them. Her main purpose, however, is being the new storyteller of the pack. As such, Senka has just finished memorizing all of the pack lore and thus holds all of their ancient wisdom. A month has passed since she set out on the solitary journey that all storytellers must take. During this journey, she will meet several wolves and packs from distant lands and learn about them. Upon her return, the title of storyteller will be officially bestowed and she will no longer be the apprentice, for she will have earned it by showing that she can survive such a trek. Important People:Draga – As she believes her family to be dead, Senka has not bothered to think about them since she was first adopted by her pack; however, she does, in fact, have a sister at large in the world. Perhaps one day they will meet. Bryanni (deceased) – This old wolf was Senka’s mentor. She taught her everything she knows about the storyteller’s art and gave Senka’s life direction and purpose. Looking for:Senka needs wolves to meet along her journey, anything from a brief meeting to a substantial interaction of several days or weeks (wolf time).

Meaning: “avenging murder,” one of the Greek Furies
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Physical Characteristics: Pure black coat and emerald green eyes. The mask and red markings are war paint and cannot be inherited.
Obtained: Acropolis RP Contest
RP Color: red
Pack: Acropolis
Rank: Beta (and leader of the painted wolves)
Status: Stationary, for now
Personality:
Tisiphone might be a bit snarly, but she rarely bites (her pack mates, at least; enemies are another matter entirely). In fact, she is incredibly loyal and would do anything and everything in her power to protect her pack mates and keep them from experiencing the same suffering that she has. She used to be very patient and affectionate; however, she’s grown a bit distant and her temper is now rather unpredictable. Still, the only reason that Tisiphone is so touchy is because she’s in pain. She is angry and miserable over the murder of her mate. Even as she searches for a good home for her companions, she searches for her mate's killer. She is beginning to wonder if she will ever find either one.
About:
Tisipnone's first mate, Cith, was murdered, causing her to take to a life of wandering in pursuit of revenge, but somewhere along the way, she picked up a little band of wolves that she feels responsible for, a group that grew into a piecemeal family. Somehow, her priorities shifted and the most important thing to her became protecting her wolves, a task that she takes deadly seriously. The trauma over losing Cith has transformed her protective instincts into a borderline obsession, to the point that any threat must be dealt with swiftly and without compromise. Now, she has taken her painted wolves to the Acropolis pack, where she hopes that they can finally make a peaceful life.
Important People:
 ~Mate~
Hephaestus - Even before she set eyes on him, Tisiphone was drawn to the alpha of her new pack. With him, she has given life and love a second chance. Perhaps this time, fate will smile on her.
Cith (deceased) – They grew up together, and then they fell in love. Cith was Tisiphone’s first mate. Although they never had any pups, she loved him dearly before he was taken from her. His death caused her heart to break, to the point that she was not certain she would ever be able to love again.
~Offspring~
Megaera – Tisiphone's firstborn female, she is destined to carry on the line.
Nike – The youngest and smallest of Tisiphone's pups.
Andromeda – The calmest and most stubborn of her pups, An is a dreamer.
Zeus – Her firstborn son, Zeus resembles his father greatly both physically and in his temperament.
Abraxas – For better or worse, this son of hers has her temper and a penchant for mischief.
~Parents~
Unknown (deceased)
~Siblings~
Alecto (deceased) – As the only surviving members of their family, Tisiphone and Alecto were very close. Her death cost Tis dearly.
~Other~
Heyoka – One of the painted band, this young female lies somewhere between an annoying younger sister and a worry-inducing daughter in Tisiphone’s heart.
Captain – Another member of the painted band, this beta balances Tisiphone’s temper with his cool head and impeccable manners.
Zanza-jin – The final member of the painted band, this wolf takes great delight in flirting with Tisiphone and, though she will never, ever admit it, she appreciates his advances as they tend to cheer her up, even if she will never return his feelings.
Looking for:
Open to RPs, but Tisiphone spends most of her time within Acropolis territory.

Name: Youko
Meaning: a Japanese name combining the elements of "sun, sunlight" and "child"
Gender: Female
Age: Young Adult
Physical Characteristics: medium, moss-green coat with paler green underbelly and stripes on her lower legs. Her eyes are bright blue.
Obtained: Prize from a dice game
RP Color: #5f9c25
Pack: None
Rank: Gamma
Status: Wanderer
Personality:
Youko is a sweet girl, lady-like, and a little shy. Eager to please, she does not like yelling and hates for people to be angry with her. As a result, she can sometimes be a bit of a pushover, and though she does not like to feel used, she does like to be helpful. It would probably not be too difficult to manipulate her, if you could first win her over to your cause. However, one must use caution when playing with her, for she can be extremely dangerous, in more ways than one. First off, she happens to be a trained assassin, so she is perfectly capable of carrying out her threats. Secondly, if she thinks it is the right thing to do, or that it would please someone she looks up to or cares about, Youko would have absolutely no qualms about killing someone, no matter how slight the provocation. That is to say, she could as easily kill a wolf who murdered someone’s sister as a wolf who offended someone’s pride. Her morals are funny that way.
About:
Youko had a rather unusual childhood. Whatever became of her parents, she was raised by her uncle, who happened to be an assassin. In order to please him, she trained under him, honing her skills and perfecting the violent arts that he taught her. She became quite skilled. Of course, her motivation was pretty high. He was the only family that she had left and she could not bear the thought of failing him, though there was the added incentive that he was liable to kill her if she proved to be more of a burden than an asset.
Presently, Youko is wandering Telk, searching for someone to help or someone to please. She does not know if she wants to join a pack, or if she wants to wander forever, lost in the wind. She is directionless.
Important People:
Uncle – his name is unknown, but Youko’s uncle took her in after her parents disappeared and trained her to become an assassin like himself. He remains Youko’s most important person to this day.
Looking for:
I think it would be a lot of fun to find a companion for Youko: either someone who can expertly manipulate her and use her as their personal weapon or someone who tries to look after her and make her morals a little less ambiguous.

Meaning: a Welsh name meaning “enthusiasm.” It has been borne by many Welsh rulers.
Gender: Male
Age: Pup
Physical Characteristics: pale fur with brown-grey markings on face, back, and his left foreleg. His eyes are yellow.
Obtained: Gift from She-Ra
RP Color: #332112
Pack: YMCA
Rank: Pup
Status: Stationary
Personality:
Occasionally, a wolf is born possessing what seems like all the wisdom of the ages, as though their soul has existed for so long and has been through so much that not even rebirth can create a clean slate and erase all of that accumulated experience. Rhys is one such wolf. Because of this, he can be pretty quiet, though he is not shy. He simply has nothing to say, much of the time. After all, there is wisdom in silence, too. He prefers to listen and learn; only speaking up when he has a question or some useful insight to add. Of course, some of those insights can be awfully perceptive to be coming from a pup and he has not yet learned to be circumspect.
Nonetheless, Rhys still has an innocent heart: a pure heart as yet untainted by the evils of the world. So, perhaps the best word to describe him is “ageless.” However, only those closest to him might ever even notice his innocence, due, once more, to his reticence.
About:
In some ways, Rhys is privileged. After all, his parents are the alphas. That must surely have some perks, right? One would think so. However, he is a bit of an outsider. His quiet manner and uncanny wisdom disturb some of the pack members, even in a pack as accepting as YMCA. After all, he is only a pup and what gives a pup the right to have eyes that seem to pierce straight into the very depths of your soul. Perhaps this will change as he gets older. Such insight might be more acceptable in an adult and Rhys might learn how to better interact with others so as not to startle them.
Regardless, he is more comfortable around the adults who accept him than he is around his littermates, given the differences in their personalities. Since pups are often overlooked and sometimes even forgotten, if they can avoid attracting attention, Rhys also finds that he can learn a lot by simply being quiet and listening. He finds this to be most useful in furthering his self-imposed education, which he prefers to pursue more often than he prefers to play. You can learn so many interesting things when the adults forget you are there.
Important People:
~Mate~
None
~Offspring~
None
~Parents~
Chivosi [x] – his mother and alpha
Galahad [x] – his father and alpha
~Siblings~
Loxley [x], Allegra [x], Bedivere [x], and Terrene [x]
Looking for:
Rhys could use some interaction with his family and the other pack members. Perhaps some who find him creepy. Perhaps others who have enough to talk about for the both of them. Perhaps one or two who can get him to loosen up a little – after all, despite his peculiarities, Rhys is still a puppy. However, what I would really love is for one of his littermates (or maybe another pup), if any of them are shy or insecure, to tag along behind him. I think he’d make a great big brother. Alternately, it would be interesting to see someone bright and sunny trying to get him to open up more.

Meaning: a Greek name ultimately meaning “bear”
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Physical Characteristics: grey and brown coat with bright blue smear-like markings on top. He has vibrant blue eyes and wears a brown cloak of the Shadowclan.
Obtained: Brotherhood RP Contest
RP Color: blue
Pack: The Shadowclan
Rank: Warmaster (gamma)
Status: Stationary
Personality:
Arkadios is a practical wolf. While he acknowledges the importance and existence of large events and catastrophe, he also knows that life goes on. The pack still needs to be fed, the lands still need to be protected, and the ranks still need to be filled. Dio is the type of wolf who looks at the bigger picture, plans for the future, and makes certain that the things necessary for survival get done.
He is also watchful. While his quiet ways might make it seem like he is distant or aloof, he is actually paying close attention to the goings-on of the pack, taking note of those who are loyal…and those who might cause trouble in the future and need to be dealt with. On his own, he can be rather patient and forgiving; however, when matters of the pack are involved, Arkadios is no-nonsense. The Shadowclan is a pack full of willful males: it needs firm handling and Dio will not hesitate to deal with problems appropriately.
When it comes to his alpha, Dio is completely loyal. While he might view some power-hungry wolves (like Rummy) with suspicion or disdain, he holds Danel in high esteem. As a result, Dio also values the Brotherhood and tries his best to keep it as safe and whole as he can manage. He has a certain possessive affection for the pack and would hate to see anything happen to it.
About:
For quite some time, Arkadios lived his life as a loner. His views were a bit too unique for most wolves to stomach, so he was not welcome among any of the packs he had come across. Of course, he had no interest in those packs, either. After all, what good would it do to live with what might become your next meal? So, while he was curious about the pack life, he was content to remain alone. Until he met Danel. This strong, red wolf not only shared Dio’s views; he lived by them and he welcomed Arkadios as his brother. From that moment on, Arkadios has been unwaveringly loyal to Danel, the only God-Alpha that he will ever acknowledge.
Even after Danel disappeared on whatever mysterious journey took him from the Brotherhood, Dio’s loyalty has not been swayed. Instead, he has faith in Danel and keeps an eye on the pack while he waits patiently for his God-Alpha to return. While the pack is being overwhelmed by the storm of chaos and confusion that has descended upon them, Arkadios is like a calm port. His confidence and practicality serve to steady his unsettled brothers.
Beyond his faith in Danel and loyalty to the pack, Dio's already impressive combat abilities have only been further honed during his time as a warrior of the Shadowclan and he uses those skills to protect the pack from all threats, be they from outside or within.
Important People:
Danel – the only wolf that Arkadios has ever acknowledged as his superior and the only wolf that he has ever thought worthy or capable of being God-Alpha. Danel holds Arkadios’s unwavering loyalty...and obedience.
Looking For:
Arkadios could use some interaction with the pack. Whatever you want to throw at him.

Meaning: an Old English name meaning “noble snake”
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Physical Characteristics: grey and brown, her coat is based off of a garter snake. Her eyes are yellow.
Obtained: Courtly Calumny RP Contest
RP Color: darkseagreen
Pack: None
Rank: Gamma
Status: Wanderer
Personality:
Ethelinda is a curious mixture of optimism and realism. She has had a hard and lonely life, and she recognizes and appreciates harsh realities, but she does not let such things defeat her. Just because disaster followers her around like a lonely pup does not mean that her entire life has to be tragedy. She knows that there is more out there and waits patiently for it to find her. The wheel will turn eventually. Ethelinda also has a strong belief in fate. She believes that everything happens for a reason and nothing is really mere coincidence. Beyond that, she is a fairly grounded individual. Having spent her whole life being persecuted, it takes a lot to offend her these days. However, if she ever found something good in her life, something worth protecting, she would do so unto death, for it might break her to lose it. In addition to her finely-honed skills in tracking and stealth, Ethelinda has a very keen and clever mind, all of which have combined into making her very capable of flourishing on her own. Of course, they could also make her a fine addition to any pack.
About:
Known as the “stitch-mouthed witch,” the snake whose sole purpose was to poison the lives of others, Ethelinda has lived her life surrounded by disaster. It follows her wherever she goes, creating all manner of chaos and destruction. Due to this, her family drove her out of her birth pack and, because the rumors of her curse spread far and wide, no other pack would take her in. For a while, Ethie felt lonely. She did not really know what to do with herself, but as the months went by, she grew to appreciate her solitary life. Her skills in tracking and stealth became superb, to the point that not even a rabbit poised for flight would hear her approach. Best of all, with no one else around, her disasters never hurt anyone. After all, she was always exempt from harm whenever they came. She had even begun to have a perverse appreciation for them. They made life interesting.
However, her peaceful existence was not to last. Pale two-leggers soon invaded the land that she had claimed for her own. They killed the forest and chased all of the game away. This time, Ethelinda wanted disaster to strike. This time, she wished for it and she did not have to wait long. One night, the two-leggers’ pet fire got out of control and consumed them…and a great deal of the forest, as well. As usual, Ethelinda escaped unharmed, but others had not. One of these was a young pup, barely alive, though many of his wounds had not been caused by her fire, but rather, his caretakers. Regardless, after Ethie found the pup and nursed him back to health, she adopted him as her own. Perhaps her luck was turning around at last, for her to have found such a blessing.
One other important change happened after that fire: Ethelinda began to question the disasters that followed in her wake. Perhaps they were not disasters at all. Perhaps they were punishments well deserved. After all, the humans had certainly deserved it. Rather than a harbinger of doom, perhaps she was an instrument of justice…
Important People:
Chibiterasu – Ethelinda found this pup after one of her disasters and nursed him back to health. She thinks of him as her own son.
Looking for:
First, she needs to get set up with her traveling group, which is headed for Order of the Rose territory. After that, she could use some interaction with the pup, her group, and some of the Order. After all, I’m sure she’ll have some pretty interesting reactions when war comes a-calling to those lands.

Name: Lucian
Meaning: a Romanian name derived from the Latin lux, meaning “light”
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Physical Characteristics: his coat is dark, grey-brown, lighter on the bottom. He has dark rings around his eyes and a mottled band around his left forepaw. His eyes are grey.
Obtained: Gift from She-Ra
RP Color: #523726 #38312c
Pack: Antianeira
Rank: ???
Status: Stationary
Personality:
Lucian is a good little slave, inasmuch as he can manage. He has strong protective instincts and wants little more than to protect the females of the pack, though he is only a lowly male. Perhaps this comes from watching his mother’s weakened condition as he grows up, or perhaps it is simply a part of his being. Regardless, he will do as he is bid by the females, though he might not be quite as obedient to the males. He was not born to be a follower, but he does his part as best as he can. After all, this is the way the world works and he wants to achieve his goals. If he must obey in order to protect, he will. He has the potential to become unflinchingly loyal.
About:
Growing up as a slave, he has never considered a different life for himself. If he knew of the outside world, perhaps things would be different, but as it stands, Lucian is content with his lot. He is the son of the princess, the future Queen, and brother to one who will likely be the next princess. He is of the royal line. His prospects are not so bad. Perhaps he will even become a Favored, someday. But, beyond the fact that his female relations are the ones most important to protect, he does not really pay much attention to his bloodline. He is not arrogant, but neither is he particularly submissive to other males. If he had belonged to another pack, he would have become a great leader. In his home, he seeks only to protect those closest to him, even if, as warriors, they might not strictly need it.

Meaning: a Croatian and Serbian name meaning “precious”
Gender: Female
Age: Young Adult
Physical Characteristics: bright blue eyes and a snow-flecked, grey coat. She also has pale facial stripes across her muzzle and over her eyes.
Obtained: a generous re-home from The_Thread_Reaper
RP Color: teal
Pack: None
Rank: Gamma
Status: Wanderer
Personality:
Unlike her sister, who seems incapable of having her feathers ruffled, Draga has a perfectly healthy range of emotions…which is a polite way of saying that she has a great deal of pride as both a wolf, and as a female. She dislikes being talked down to or being spoken to as an ignorant female and has little patience for condescending or close-minded wolves. Any of those things are a sure way to anger her; however, her temper rarely runs hot. Like the snow on her coat and the ice from her childhood, Draga turns cold and disdainful when she is in a mood.
Of course, there is more to this female than pride and anger, and even her pride is not so very overbearing. It is a quiet thing, coming closer to dignity unless it is stepped on. Generally speaking, Draga is a collected and competent individual. Her intelligence is above-average and, although she may seem distant and be difficult to get along with at times, she has a good heart and strong morals. She is also courteous to any wolf she might cross paths with; however, her respect has to be earned, and precious few have been deemed worthy of the privilege.
Beyond that, this female keeps several dreams close to her heart. The first and most obvious is her desire to find her sister again. It would mean the world to her, if she could know for certain that her only remaining family was safe. Her second, more whimsical desire is to find her one and only – her very own true love – for she believes in soul mates and hopes to find her own some day. Who knows what other secrets might lie in her heart.
About:
When she and her sister were but pups with only a few of months under their paws, disaster struck. Draga cannot remember how it happened, whether it was an accident or an attack, whether it was unforgiving Mother Nature or malicious wolves. What she remembers is the cold. The feeling of suffocation. Waking up beneath the snow and having to dig herself out. When she finally reached the surface, she found her parents, half-buried themselves and no longer among the living. Beyond that, she saw only a never-ending expanse of white, a pristine layer of snow covering the land, and no trace whatsoever of her sister.
She made her way down the mountain, stumbling, half-frozen and starved, only to be found and taken in by a wandering wolf. They never grew close, but neither was their relationship hostile. The wanderer treated Draga well enough and taught her what she needed to know to survive. When Draga was old enough to make her own way in the world, they parted cordially, knowing that they were unlikely to see each other again.
The young wolf had a purpose in life. She had never found her sister, and she was possessed of some inexplicable, undeniable knowing: somewhere in the vast world, her sister was still alive…and Draga was determined to find her.

Name: Finch
Meaning: she was named for the little songbirds common to the area.
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Physical Characteristics: dark red coat with white points and underbelly. She also has pale tan-orange markings on her face, back, and paws. Her eyes are gold.
Obtained: Re-home from Moth
RP Color: firebrick
Pack: None
Rank: Shaman
Status: Wanders in her forest
Personality:
A pacifist by nature, Finch’s early and prolonged exposure to the violence and cruelty of humans started a downward spiral that ended in a shattered mind. Her thoughts are often scattered, and she tries to keep everything simple. If she did anything more, she fears she would lose what little touch with sanity she has left. So, she guards her peaceful existence religiously and lives in the moment, hoping for her tragic life to take a fairy-tale turn and for everything to be perfect.
About:
Captured at an early age by humans and used in dog fighting rings, Finch and her siblings had a harsh and bloody start to their lives. Seeing wolves and dogs fighting each other to the death, and being forced to participate in such lethal games was more than she could take. Under the stress of it all, she discovered something precious: she could speak to the trees…and they spoke back. Sheer desperation aided by her newfound ability allowed her to escape the humans before any of her siblings managed to. However, by the time she escaped, she had already lost her sanity.
She wandered for a time before settling into a forest that called to her particularly strongly. Now, she claims that forest as home, trying to keep peace in her little realm and healing any who need it. Finch loves her siblings dearly and hopes that one day, they will return to her and they can all live together again.

Name: Kera
Meaning: a kera is a large, 2-2.5 ton block of metal which began as iron ore and, after undergoing the smelting process, has taken on carbon from pine charcoal to become steel. Less than half of the kera, the tamahagane, is then used by master sword smiths to forge katanas.
Gender: Female
Age: Young Adult
Physical Characteristics: dark grey with black, tan, and white markings. She has Celtic knots on some of her legs. Her eyes are blue.
Obtained: Re-home from Jungle
RP Color: slategrey
Pack: Reign of Terror
Rank: gamma?
Status: ???
Personality:
Unlike her childish mother, Kera is not so very boisterous. Rather, she prefers to be quiet about what she can and cannot do. A bit of a stoic, she is nonetheless quite dangerous when the situation calls for it. Cool and lethal as a katana, she believes that enemies are better off dead than merely injured. They cause less trouble that way.
Regardless, the social dances of pack politics hold little interest for her. Instead, she thinks of herself as a weapon to be wielded. If she can find the right master, she would fight for him loyally, dirtying her paws so that he could keep his clean.
About:
Despite growing up in so vicious a pack as RoT, Kera never had any trouble surviving, even thriving. Certainly, her mother was never any help, and her she had little to do with her father. Primarily self-taught, she watched the fights of the more skilled warriors, practiced on any who annoyed or offended her. Thus, she grew strong.
Now, she exists in a kind of limbo, drifting through life without any purpose, neither troubled nor thriving. This life is well enough, but she would prefer to have meaning in it. So, she searches for one worthy of commanding her skills.
Important People:

None
~Offspring~

~Parents~
Freki – Father
Aitou – She is…a bit of a brat, to be perfectly honest, and Kera does not get along with her very well. If anything, Kera takes after her maternal grandmother, Kirai, though they have never met.
~Siblings~
Kaikon – Brother (owned by Nikui)
Torquil – Brother (owned by Roxy)
~Other~
None
Looking for:
Though she could use just about any kind of interaction within the pack, or with outsiders, what Kera really wants is a master worthy of her loyalty.

Name: Ainelaith
Meaning: from the Gaelic words áine “radiance” and flaith “princess, lady”
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Physical Characteristics: primarily white with blue, dragon-like arm markings along her back, inherited from her father. Her eyes are blue.
Obtained: Re-home from Jungle
RP Color: steelblue
Pack: Draug Faroth
Rank: Royal family
Status: Stationary, but enjoys wandering
Personality:
Ainelaith is the independent sort. She believes in doing things for herself and hates relying on others. This femme also enjoys running off on her own, exploring the world and learning about any- and everything that she can. To top it all off, she is the type who lets her curiosity get the better of her, though she prefers to act like she knows everything that she needs to know and she would sooner bite her own tongue than say anything that made it sound like she needed help. However, because of these traits, Aine has a tendency to get into more trouble than she can handle, especially at her young age.
About:
Born royalty, Ainelaith ought to have been pampered and protected, or so most would believe. Instead, she is mostly left on her own to do as she pleases. Certainly, she receives no special treatment. However, her aunt Aduial has taken it upon herself to attempt to instill ladylike qualities in this wild child. The result is a mutually antagonistic relationship between the two as they test their willpower against each other. Of course, this is done in the most civil of manners. They are, after all, still family.

Name: Belladonna
Meaning: She is named for the poisonous plant atropa belladonna, all parts of which can be fatal.
Gender: Female
Age: Teen
Physical Characteristics: bright, medium to dark green coat with plum markings on face, tail, and paws. Her eyes are golden.
Obtained: Gift from fenshae
RP Color: purple
Pack: Antianeira
Rank: Pup
Status: Stationary
Personality:
Having inherited much of her father’s intellect, Belladonna has a tendency to look down on those she considers to be inferior…which consists of most of the population. In fact, she is almost disdainful of them, finding their concerns to be petty and their affairs to be selfish. However, unlike Rorret, she does not have any trouble interacting with the general populace. Rather, she tends to shun them on purpose, easily growing bored of their insignificant squabbles and idiotic ambitions. This is not to say that she will not talk to others. They would simply have to be wary of her sharp tongue and lazy dismissal.
Belladonna is certain that there is a higher purpose in the world, something fundamentally more than what her pack currently has to offer. She simply has to find it. Thus, she searches for that indescribable something that would make life worth her while.
About:
Born of the forbidden union between an Antianeiran warrior and a Shadowclan thief, Belladonna’s very right to exist is questionable. However, her mother kept the secret well, so Bella and her sisters are able to live a fairly normal life in the pack, though their unknown father is still the cause of some scandal.
Perhaps such circumstances would cause other wolves to be a little insecure, but they do not seem to have affected Bella at all. Instead, she is not the least concerned with what the rest of the pack thinks. No. In her arrogance, she ignores them in favor of puzzling out something worthy of her time and focus. Because of that, there are precious few wolves that she would willingly spend time with. She may or may not consider them friends, but at least they hold enough intelligence to keep up with her.
As for the warrior nature of the pack, Belladonna has little trouble learning the techniques that make a wolf excel at the violent arts. So, she does not need to spend very much time honing her skills. In fact, there are only three reasons she practices. First, the warrior arts are expected of the pack and being seen practicing them saves her the trouble of annoying, repetitious arguments with older females…and allows them to overlook her other habits. Second, while the skills are simple enough to master, it is still necessary to practice in order to build up her strength. Third, she takes a certain amount of pleasure in the act of finding the most effective and efficient methods of defeating an opponent. The warrior arts are not so terrible a way to pass the time until she can find her higher purpose.

~Mate~

~Offspring~

Azalea – Bella’s mother, who has a false sense of rightfulness to everything in the pack.
Rorret – Bella’s father, though she does not know it, since the mating was illegitimate.

Amaryllis – sister
Zarathustra – The brother that Bella is unlikely to ever meet, as he has been taken to the Shadowclan.
~Other~
None
Looking for:
Some interaction with her family, and with those of Antianeira whom she might consider to be intelligent.

Name: Megaera
Meaning: “grudging” or “the jealous one,” a Greek Fury.
Gender: Female
Age: Pup
Physical Characteristics: primarily rusty orange, she has black points and a mask, as well as three red stripes on her muzzle. Her eyes are emerald.
Obtained: February 2012 breeding
RP Color: chocolate
Pack: Acropolis
Rank: Pup
Status: Stationary
Personality:
A little bit self-centered, Megaera has her share of flaws. She can be jealous; she can be petty; she can be fickle; and most importantly of all, she really knows how to hold a grudge. If something makes her angry enough or offends her pride strongly enough, she is liable to hold onto a grudge until her dying breath. Do not be lulled into a false sense of security if she does not take her revenge right away. She does not forget and she rarely forgives. It might take some times, but she is patient. She always pays back what is owed, with interest.
However, it would be unfair to say that this female is wholly unpleasant. In fact, Megaera is usually a pretty amiable individual. Her sense of duty is something that she cannot deny and she lives by a strict set of rules that she crafted as a combination of her mother’s teachings and her own thoughts on the matter. She is also pretty insistent that courtesies are observed. Over all of this, she wears a veil of capriciousness that she only bends for her more moral codes in spite of herself.
About:
Descendant of the alphas, Megaera holds a special place in her mother’s line. As the oldest daughter of the oldest daughter, she is the keeper of the line. This means that family, both future and present, are her responsibility. It probably means other things, too, but Meg is too young to care very much about it, yet, so she does not really know. Regardless, this has little bearing on her everyday life. Instead, she lives a life much like other pups, playing with her siblings and pestering the older pack members.
Despite the fact that some of her mother’s sense of responsibility has – fortunately – passed on to her, Meg tends to be pretty reluctant about the whole thing. She might help a sibling or do her duty, but she will act very put-upon about it. She might get better as she gets older, but would not be advisable to bet on it.

Name: Andromeda
Meaning: a Greek name meaning “to think of a man.” It is also borne by a mythological Greek princess, a constellation, and a galaxy.
Gender: Female
Age: Pup
Physical Characteristics: primarily white with black markings on paws and tail and a black mask, as well as red zigzag on her tail. Her eyes are golden.
Obtained: February 2012 breeding
RP Color: mediumvioletred
Pack: Acropolis
Rank: Pup
Status: Stationary
Personality:
A little artsy and a little rebellious, Andromeda is nonetheless fairly laidback. She tries not to let anything get her down and especially enjoys seeking out the beauty and wonder in life. It is mystery that she loves, for what is life without it? Sometimes she seeks to solve the mysteries, and sometimes she is content to leave them be, as suits her sense of wonder. Of course, with her love of beauty and wonder, it is only natural that she is very much a romantic at heart. It does not matter if it is the romance between two lovers, or the romance of a lifestyle, or the bittersweet tang of a tragedy. Andromeda adores it all.
Dreamer she may be, but this is no silly little girl. She has uncommon clarity of perception and her open mind lets her notice things that others might overlook or disregard. This female can also be uncommonly stubborn. When she sets her mind to something, she will quite calmly and resolutely refuse to change her mind, no matter the attempts at persuasion.
About:
Growing up in such a large and remote pack, Andromeda has little experience with any real strife and she is quite content to keep it that way. She has embraced the peace and contentment that permeates the pack and enjoys living in the clouds – literally and figuratively. The way she sees it, the pack and territory is so large that even if she gets bored, there is always something else to do or somewhere else to explore or someone else to visit. Maybe if she really felt like it, she could go exploring someday. She might not be a fighter, but she can still take care of herself if the need arises. Her parents made sure of that. Of course, she might never leave the pack. Maybe someone would come to her, instead.
