Look up. You see the sun? It shines for all of us, even when the clouds block it out, it keeps shining. Isn't that something?
Name: "My father named me Trekkar after my mother died of disease. My name used to be Toby, but because of how far I liked to travel and trek across the land, he renamed me Trekkar, so I could start fresh as my family was disbanding. I was barely one at the time."
Nickname: Trek. He normally goes by this, rather than Trekkar.
Gender: Male
Rank/pack: Loner
Relationship/crush: None. He doesn't know if he plans on it, either.
Age: He has managed to survive for four years, turning four around a month ago.
Eye Color: Brown, like mud or chocolate.
Fur: Medium and slightly rough. Not very soft, and often pretty messed up and scruffy.
Weight and height: He weighs around 85-90 pounds, and his shoulder stand at around 30 inches tall- average height and weight.
Type of body (build): Skinny, but firm. He's basically muscles and bones, no fat on his body, because of how little he eats. His muscles stand out a bit against his small frame, but are hidden by his fur and are only obvious when he is soaked.
Distinguishing marks: The fur on his left front leg is shorter than normal, for scars cover the surface of the leg when he was caught in a hunter's trap when he was younger- it mostly just grazed him, rather that trapping him though.
Speed to travel: Fast. He loves to run, roll around, and race. Going fast is something he's good at, and loves to experience.
Food: His favorite food somehow manages to be grass. Not as a food though- he just loves the taste of it, but doesn't eat it, for he doesn't like to throw up what little food he managed to eat.
Activity: Wrestling and running around like a pup, the good old days.
Hobbies: Currently, his goal is to climb a tree. He wants to see what the squirrels see, and possibly catch a few. Though, he hasn't had much luck- obviously. On rainy days you'll find him prancing through the grass for hours on end, because he loves the way it feels like he is swimming in the grass, because of all the water. Though you might want to make him stop after a while- he doesn't notice how cold he gets very easily.
Trek is brave, loyal, and loves to take a challenge, as long as it's a friendly competition. He has a soft heart, and it's incredibly hard to get him to not like you. He trusts immediately, though sometimes he shouldn't, and it's hard for you to break that trust. He's all around very caring, and want everyone to see the world for it's beauty and fun, like he sees it. When with others, he can get more playful because of all the energy emitted from large groups, but alone he tends t shell up, and think a lot more than usual, and acts the same when only with one other- very thoughtful and quiet, often blurting things out quietly than don't make sense or seem random unless he explains them.
Habits: He has good and bad, like everyone else. For the good, he stays active to keep his muscles strong, he likes to count things and make lists, as well as keep the area around him organized and as clean as he can. As for the bad, there's quite a few. When nervous, he sometimes chews on his foot, occasionally drawing blood when nervous enough. He tend to beat himself up a lot more than he should, and cares for for the safety of others than himself. He also works himself too hard, but is trying to fix that.
Greatest Strength: He speed. He's fast on his feet, coordinated, and slippery to catch. Catch him, and you better hold on, for his feet will keep running until they can't reach the ground.
Greatest Weakness: His trust. He trusts others way too quickly. He expects others to tel the truth, because, why would they lie? He'll trust someone with his live, not noticing that they couldn't care less.
Soft spot: The hungry. He'd give his own flesh just to feed another, though he knows that's not fair to himself. It hurts him deeply to see anyone starving, for his sister starved herself to death because she didn't learn to hunt, and was too afraid to get hurt like their mother.
Biggest Vulnerability: Once again, his trust. He doesn't noticed that someone is lying or attempting to hurt him until it's already happened. He always expects the best from others, and is shocked when someone attacks him for no reason. He will assume you tell the truth, and will always tell the truth himself- this isn't good because sometimes it's better to lie than to tell the truth.
First Memory: The earliest memory he can recall is getting outside the den when his parents were both hunting. His mother should have stayed, but the incredible lack of food pulled her outside the den to help the father, so that they could feed Trek and his sister, Lillian.
History: Trek's father, Torin, and his mother, Faea, were both loners who found each other when others did not want them. They shared similar passions and interests, as well as physical traits, and ended up having a litter together. There were two pups, Lillian and Trekkar- though he was called Tony at the time. They were born late, and the parents ran into trouble trying to get food so Faea could provide milk for the pups. One day Lillian became ill, for she worked herself too hard and ate expired meat, and Torin began taking on raising the pups faster than normal. The male and female pup worked long hours, though they didn't understand much of their teaching. A month later, the pups now almost 4 months, Lillian was injured trying to take down a sick deer by herself. This caused her to be paralyzed, and to pass away. This frightened Lillian, who then refused to learn to hunt, causing her death by starvation. Torin and Tony, soon renamed Trekkar, stuck together until Trek was a little over a year old. Torin, getting older, began to drag Trek back a little, making him slower and more of a target for predators. Out of love, Torin asked trek to continue on, though he had to force Trek to leave his side. From then on, Trek has roamed in the thick forests that are on the east edge of the river, staying down stream from where he knew a pack's territory started.
Trek is an independent and optimistic canine. He's nearly always smiling, and doesn't really mind being alone, or with others. As long as he has room to run, he's happy. He is very respectful, and always ranks others above himself, sometimes acting like an omega.
Extremely skilled at: Running. It takes a lot to make him trip, and he loves to sprint as fast as he can.
Extremely unskilled at: Hunting large prey. He can kill rabbits, mice, and birds easily, but has never managed to catch a deer.
Darkest secret: He believe he killed his father by leaving him behind.
Does anyone know? No. He lives in the present, and doesn't dwell on the past often enough for others to ask about it.
Most at ease when: He is in an open field. The ability to see everything around him calms him down, for it lets him know nothing is near him but the grass at his paws.
Most ill at ease when: Underground. It makes him feel trapped.
How are they perceived by strangers: Most tend to see him as more of a puppy. Playful, active, and easily entertained. He's not normally seen as a threat, especially when he's rolling on his back in the sun.
Friends: He's met a few other wolves along the way, but he doesn't like to stay in one place for too long.
How do they react in a crisis: He speaks slowly, thinking over everything he says. He knows words can mean a lot more than he thinks. He tries to stay calm, but tends to pace, and dart around to keep himself out of harm's way
Kind of problems they usually run into: Territorial pack members, aggressive loners, and he has managed to run into two cougars.
How they react to new problems: Dumbfounded, basically. He is easily confused, and will ask a lot of questions- as many as he can think of. He likes to understand what's going on.
