"We build too many walls, and not enough bridges."
-Issac Newton
"There is always a thin line crossed. It is against our nature to not do so."
N A M E "If I am to give a name it shall be only one. I am Tsunami."
Tsunami is indeed the name of this "masked wolf" as he as often been called. The origin of the name is unknown. It was given by his father who left soon after. Even it is his true name he has no real desire to use it, often going by Mask instead.
N I C K N A M E "You may call me by my true name, but I prefer Mask."
For all his life he has been told that the markings around his eyes resemble a mask in a way. And not feeling he should use his actual name he has begun to go by the name of Mask. He simply prefers it over Tsunami. He was never fond of the fact that his father left soon after so he didn't want the name he chose.
A G E "I am currently at the ripe age of five."
Tsunami is still a young wolf, though of a responsible age no doubt. Of course he has already taken on much wisdom and responsiblity in his life so he seems to be a few years older. Apart from that he is approximately four years and three months.
G E N D E R "I find this question rather odd..."
Judging by both his size and deep voice one might guess this wolf is a male. He has been his whole life and doesn't exactly see it changing anytime soon. In general he is a complete male, from looks to err, body parts.
A L L E G I A N C E "I stand beside Shining Moon."
Tsunami has never been one for the pack life. He has seen far too many foolish alphas in his days. But after his travels he became increasingly tired of the lonely life. He still didn't think he would settle though so he kept going. But upon finding Shining Moon and meeting Dream he figured one more shot couldn't hurt.
R A N K "Simply a lead hunter."
Tsunami has been a natural born hunter his whole life. So upon finding Shining Moon he put his talents to use. And was gratefully given the rank of lead hunter. And he plans to fulfill his duties without hesitation.

H E I G H T Tsunami actually stands about an inch above the middle average height for male wolves. He stands at 31 inches at the shoulder. Even with the measurement he considers himself average.
L E N G T H He is of rather long length for a wolf, measuring about 6.5 feet from nose tip to tail tip. So yes he is a rather long wolf, resting just at the edge of average length.
W E I G H T Despite being on the far side of average in the rest of his measurements he is actually in the middle of weight. He is about 90 pounds in all, including muscle and some fat.
P H Y S I C A L - D E S C R I P T I O N Beginning with a general build, Tsunami has a hunter's build. His legs are long and slender with muscle packed on. In fact it would be no easy task to outrun him, he could run for miles and miles. Of course that's an exxageration, he can only run a little longer then an average wolf. He has a muscular body though there is some fat there and he'll admit that. But don't mistake that little bit for a lot, it isn't much. His paws are of a good size to keep him up on his feet. Along his stomach and chest is plenty of muscle, that can be felt and even seen when he walks. His neck seems to be a little shorter then normal, but this is due to his fur. In fact he has very thick fur which has always fun in his family. But towards his legs it thins out quite a bit, making it look like someone strapped the fur on around his body.
Moving onto the rest of his body will give us a chance to brush up on Tsunami's fur. He has an undercoat of a white and grey mix. The colors blend together well and seem to create a wonderland of fur. There are almost no patches between them, they simply mix together like salt and pepper. His overcoat is a darker grey color. While it gets dark it never gets black. The only black on his entire body is the area inside of his ears and that isn't much to talk about. His overcoat covers nothing but his back, spreading out over it. At the edges it is pretty straight though looks natural. The only place it extends is at his hips, where the color spreads out a little more. The overcoat colors spread up thinly over his neck and onto his head, covering it almost completely. Now for why other wolves often called him "the masked wolf". His face is not completely covered by a dark shade, rather the markings go around his eyes. They curve along the top of his eyes and meet in between them. It also loops around the outside of his eye and goes under then down. The down part goes all the way down his face, fading away towards the under of his jaw. Although around his jaw and muzzle is a light white color instead of a grey. What most wolves tend to see second are his eyes. They are a rich, warming brown. In fact they're almost a dark chestnut color but not quite there.

P E R S O N A L I T Y Wise and Quiet- These are two well known things of Tsunami. Despite his name, which may suggest he be a bit more rampant and bold, he is a rather quiet and well-mannered wolf. Most tend to mistake his quiet sense of life with him not being very smart. Afterall he doesn't talk much, but this is horribly deceitful. He has a lot to say in fact, his mind is pratically bubbling over with things to say. But he doesn't often say them, allowing others to speak. He isn't one to talk without being asked to speak first. It's in his nature to wait for things to come to him instead of rushing for it. So when he does speak it is well thought out and intersting. He is never one to participate in a conversation that makes no sense. He much prefers things that challenge his mind.
Shy- Going along with his quiet nature, Tsunami also tends to be shy. He isn't very forward about starting a conversation. He prefers when another is brave enough to strike one up with him. Being shy also causes him to be slightly flustered around females. Even when close to one he can get fidget and become uncomfortable. This isn't to say he won't talk, he just tends to stumble over his words a tad bit more. Of course once he gets comfortable around them he eases up a bit, even if he does stumble a bit.
Kind-Hearted- All in all Tsunami tends to be a kind-hearted wolf, even if he can be a very serious wolf at times. He thinks all wolves should be treated the same as long as they mean well. Such as an obnoxious or vain wolf are the only ones he he tends to be a little colder to. But towards others is a wolf who has no problem with helping with any situation. There's almost never a time that he wouldn't help. He's almost never mad and generally has a smile on his face and a helping hand to lend. But don't take advantage of him, once he feels that someone has done that he'll stop. He'll simply tell you no, he doesn't have a problem with it.
Unforgiving- Tsunami has been wronged his whole life and never once has he let go of a grudge. For reasons his own he has never been able to find a reason to forgive a single wolf. Wrong him in a way that is enough to anger him and he'll never forget it. He just doesn't see why a wolf can get a second chance when they mess up the first one. As he often says, if they're worth a second chance they wouldn't need one. He'll live his life by it. Although that is what he believes, don't expect him to simply shove down your throat. He keeps silent about it, just as he does with anger. He doesn't really talk about, let's it build up inside really.
H I S T O R Y Tsunami was born to a rather peaceful pack. All around them everything seemed to be calm, there was no war between the packs around. For some reason they all got along, despite the large differences in land size between them. There was a total of three and Tsunami was born to the pack that was considered the wiser of them. They were the pack who often spent days in silence to observe the things around them, which was why the packs knew when certain animals passed and when things would become rough. This is where Tsunami learned to be a quiet wolf, learning to be wise later on. He was born to simple hunters of the pack, but the two were good. His mother by the name of Flutter and his father by the name of Maximus. No wolf knew whether he would turn out like the shy but wise Flutter, or the bold and brazen Maximus. Of course he turned out like his mother, adding in his own traits. Through pup years he was forced to be a companion to the next alpha in line, a wolf the same age as himself. But this alpha was a vain one, a wolf who looked out only for himself. Often times during the day Micro, the young alpha, could be found dragging Tsunami off with him or teasing Tsunami about his father. His father had left just a day after Tsunami was born, no one was sure why and no one knew where he went. But went he did and he was never seen again. Tsunami put up with it for two years though, which was the time when Micro took over as alpha. Of course Tsunami respected him, yet still never forgave him.
Once Micro took over he decided he wasn't satisfied with the land and rudely tossed a war into effect. Tsunami feared for the pack and was never shy about voicing these fears towards the wolves of the pack. But Micro seemed to be the only one who didn't listen. He was too obnoxious to realize he was hurting the pack. In a quick decision a few wolves of the pack, including Tsunami and his mother, decided to leave. And so they did, getting as far away within a night as they could, ending Micro's reign over a large pack. Tsunami would later learn of Micro's packs defeat and the murder of both the beta and Micro. But after the pack had split they all went separate ways, each having a different idea. A few decided to head towards the mountains but Tsunami, or Mask by this time, decided going a different way. It was around this time he began to build up his wisdom.
As Tsunami traveled he experinced many different things, including several attacks by packs. But he mostly forgot the details of them, except for a single one. It must have been a year into his traveling that he came across the Redwood Pack. Their name came from the tall redwood forest they lived in, that much had been obvious to him. And while he tried to remain quiet and sneak through the pack knew their territory all too well. He was attacked in a corner of the territory and taken back to their alphas. It was there that he met the prime example of an alpha. In the pack there was a long standing tradition of the first born alpha pup being mated to whoever they thought suitable. That wolf would take over as alpha along with their mate. In that case the eldest pup was a female named Nala. The wolf was around Tsunami's age and so she became the one to help him with the ways of the pack. The immediately thought that he would join-as he soon would. Tsunami and Nala quickly began to like each other, but Nala's parents did not find Tsunami suitable, due to the fact that he was an outsider. Everytime the two brought it up Nala's parents quickly shut it down. Finally they were fed up with it and planned to do away with Tsunami for good, whether they chased him away forever or killed him. Later that day Nala spread the news to Tsunami and he simply shook his head. He informed her he wouldn't be staying anyways, that a pack life was not for him. That alphas were a waste of time. The two broke into an argument but it was shut down when other wolves from the pack stepped in. With his words said Tsunami left, now having been moving around for a year and a half.
Leaving he didn't look back and went on with his life. It was a few months later when he found this pack, and after meeting Dream he decided that maybe he could give pack life another chance.

"If our eyes can see everything, why can't they see the lies?"
N A M E "You may call me Temple."
The name of this strange orange wolf is Temple. Named after nothing special. Of course she finds it a very strange name and would rather ssomething a little more... fitting to her personality.
N I C K N A M E "Nothing but Temple."
The only name this small wolf goes by is Temple. She despises nicknames and has never allowed anyone to call her anything but Temple. Try as you wish but the outcome may not be pretty.
A G E "I'm young."
Temple was born on the coldest night of the winter about three years ago. It was said that the winds howled louder and the snow fell harder. She is only about two years and three months.
G E N D E R "Imbecile..."
Temple is a proud female wolf. In fact she considers herself more a male due to her personality. Of course it varies from time to time. But still she is a female wolf and will get very offeneded if asked otherwise.
A L L E G I A N C E "Hmph."
Even though Temple is in the Shining Moon pack she considers herself only a visitor for now. She has never exactly fit in with the others. Due to this she has always considered herself somewhat of a loner until she can get what she wishes to have.
R A N K "The lowest of the low."
Due to her parents both being omegas before her time in the pack, she has been given the rank of omega. Of course this doesn't sit with the wolf well at all, she would much rather a position of power. Something she pratically craves.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - T H E C H E A T I N G W O L F- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
H E I G H T Temple is average height, standing at about 28 inches at the shoulder. Though the height is just fine for her.
L E N G T H Temple isn't a very long wolf at all. From the tip of her nose to the tip of her tail she is only about 5 feet long.
W E I G H T Temple is a very thin wolf, not starved looking but she doesn't have any muscle. Only adding to her small, sneaky stature she is only about 60 pounds, a very light wolf in all.
P H Y S I C A L - D E S C R I P T I O N At first glance glance Temple looks to be a very innocent wolf with big doe eyes. Though with one look at her wicked grin it all changes. You will see into the twisted being that is Temple. She is a very sneaky wolf and her measurements only add on to this figure. In general she does have a very thin, almost starved looking figure. Although this is just in her gene pool and does not mean she is underweight. She isn't a very tall wolf and is only about 28 inches. So no she isn't the tallest and in fact is a tad on the short side. Her short length also adds to her devious nature. It makes her a very tricky wolf seeing as though she can easily slip in and out of tight spaces. She has no hunter's build and she has not fighter's build. If anything it would be more like a small spy or an evil looking monster. But don't underestimate her, she does have some fighting skill and tends to go with an ambush attack. She'll use her small stature to weave in and out of the situation, catching you when you least expect it.
Going onto Temple's fur colors may bring a slightly shocking expression to some's face. Her fur color is a very light brown, or orange as most tend to call it. Indeed it does look like that color, even with her several patches of coloring. Around her neck and upper body she has several areas of grey. Including two spots on the right side of her face that seem to clash together. She also has a few "stripes" of darker greys on her right side in the same area as the lighter grey. Her jaw is a lighter tannish color that spreads up to around her eyes. At the top of her eyes is a light grey that passes over each one. Her fur is somewhat thick around her whole body including where it makes her legs look slightly thicker. The most shocking part of her body is her eyes. They are a striking bright orange color that stand our horribly.

P E R S O N A L I T Y Conceited- Yes Temple tends to be a very conceited wolf. She is almost always only aware of herself. It isn't that she doesn't like others, it's that most others tend to find her rude statements a very unappealing thing. Which is why she learned to care more about herself then others. Not too mention no one is ever able to hold her interst longer then a few minutes. All in all she can be a very hard wolf too please.
Rude- No one is exactly sure when this trait started. Some believe it was always there, hidden beneath a devious smile. Others think it suddenly appeared one day, completely out of the blue. But either way it is now there. And while she doesn't randomly blurt something rude, she tends to be silent when someone talks to her, giving you a blank expression. She also tends to slip in little comments that are nowhere near polite. Indeed a very bad trait for her, but she uses it to her advantage. Her rude nature is also accompanied by many sarcastic comments.
Hard-headed- This is a very challenging thing to get past with Temple. She has her beliefs thoroughly thought out and cannot be moved from them. There is almost never a time when someone can tell her something that will actually get through to her. She just simply does not like being told what to do, even if she deals with it everyday. Not much has ever gotten through to her and no one is sure why. She could never learn a lesson for thoughts that it would work out the second time. Which, unfortunately, not much ever has for her.
Brave- Although most don't expect this from such a thin wolf, Temple can be a very brave wolf. She isn't afraid to jump into the middle of a battle and throw her best paw forward. But she isn't one to try and prove herself, she figures most already know it-they don't. She has never really had to work for something in her life therefore she has never bothered to try. She was an omega, it didn't matter how much she tried, she could never seem to break that barrier. She also seems to have a lust for power but doesn't exactly try to work towards that.
H I S T O R Y Temple was born into the pack to two omegas. But they both left soon after due to unknown reasons. So Temple was raised by whoever bothered to care for a moment, which was a select few wolves. So she learned to look after herself over time. Not much has happened in the span of her lifetime and she doesn't expect anything intersting will ever happen.
