⊰ A Chilly Winter ⊱ ⊰ Wolf Pack ⊱ Forms & Discussion

[skippy.]

◤['The gray wolf is a slender, powerfully built animal with a large, deeply descending rib cage and a sloping back. Its abdomen is pulled in, and its neck heavily muscled. Its limbs are long and robust, with comparatively small paws.The front paws have five toes each, while the back paws have four. The forelimbs are seemingly pressed into the chest, with the elbows pointed inward, and the feet outward, thus allowing both fore and hind limbs on the same side to swing in the same line. The wolf's legs are moderately longer than those of other canids. This enables the animal to move swiftly, and allows it to overcome the deep snow that covers most of its geographical range. Females tend to have narrower muzzles and foreheads, thinner necks, slightly shorter legs and less massive shoulders than males.']
There are only two ways to be part of a pack. Wolves are born into it, or wolves join after separating from their old pack. Wolves live in packs, in which they hunt,protect, fight and care with each other . Some packs have been around for generations, and some for barely a year. Each wolf in a pack is essential to the rest, even though not all wolves realize this. When a new wolf joins a pack they must first move them self to their surrounding wolves, and then work their way up the chain. Thankfully in this pack all wolves started out as new member to the group, so they all have a idea of what its like.More than often you hear about packs that fail and crumble, and rare do you find the tale of a pack that does the opposite, a pack that is prospering and accepting.◢

{ Tempest is what most people consider to be strong-willed and hot headed. Her persistently is definitely one of the first things you'll notice about her and she isn't afraid to show who she really is at first glance. Though her personality could cause her to seem harsh and temperamental if you get to know her you would be able to see the softer side. Believed or not she loves to play and have fun, even in the moments that it seems she has the world on her shoulders. One of her favorite things to do is play in the water and wrestle, and also to hang out and sleep also. It was a very split world in her head. She hates ants and extreme heat, and when those are around are the times the worst comes out in her. But over all she is fun, you just have to find it in her.
• ᴀᴘᴘᴇᴀʀᴀɴᴄᴇ
{ Tempest is a smaller wolf than usual for females. She isn’t thin in a lengthy type way, but more of just a small way, as you would see in a younger wolf than she. Her body is proportionate to a normal sized wolf, she is just a tad bit smaller which makes it easier for her to slip around obstacles and makes her lighter on her feet. She has forest green eyes, with flecks of gold and grey near the iris and at the edge of her eye. The main color of her pelt could be called tan, though it it is really a mix-match scenario of many different colors. Different parts of her body have splotches of dark and light brown, black, a red color and also a more gold color than her under pelt. Her paws are darker than her main color, and one of her ears is also a very dark brown while the other is lighter. The tip of her tail is white and black, and under her neck is also a whitish tan color. Tempest has what is called a 'splayed paw' on her front right paw, which basically means her toes and pad and farther apart by only a little, causing it to look like she is putting all her weight on it even when she is barely on it. The bottom of her pad has a strange pattern due to this, which is easily seen in mud, for which this reason she tends to stay away from it.

{ Despite her personality she doesn't talk unless spoken too, except for her brother who she bickers with. She is also very self-conscious of her paw, because she doesn't want to be looked down upon as 'weaker'. Due to this she constantly pushes to try as hard as she can to excel in her rank.

{ Foalan is very much different than his sister. He enjoys living life for what it is and watching how the days progress without altering them. His calm nature makes him easy to get along with, and a very good ‘talking buddy’ if you wish, because he doesn’t interrupt often. Few people have ever seen Foalan lose his calm, and when he does it is not a pretty sight. He doesn’t scream or rant or rage, but he has a calm demeanor to himself even then, and it seems as if you push him far enough that was only the ‘calm before the storm.’ Though kind natured he torments his sister by attempting to push her to be friendlier and get more active socially.
• ᴀᴘᴘᴇᴀʀᴀɴᴄᴇ
{ Foalan is a relatively normal sized wolf. He is proportionate and average, and has enough muscle to be able to do his job. His muscles aren’t enough to make him ‘bulky’ so he looks the same size and weight as most males. Foalan’s pelt has a under base of white, and that is what he could normally be considered, though his back is greyish, brown on top and his ears are darker. None of the siblings have the exact same colors, which makes it hard to tell they are all related, especially Tempest and himself. Foalan has golden colored eyes that are darker in the center and get lighter and dark brown nose that looks as if he pushed it into the mud one too many times.

name:; Agape
age:; 3
gender:; male
traits:; It's not good to let Agape's large size to get the better of you, despite his husky large build and intimidating looks, he's a sweet guy. He rarely fights anyone. Agape's personality fits the meaning of his name quite nicely, it means love in Greek. There not much else to him, while he can be aggressive and protective, you don't see that side much unless he is provoked. Some may also think he is the mean type when looking at his mother, she's a little colder than him and takes a lot of work to calm down. So really between the two, Agape is more of the one you want to hang out with and get to know, that is unless you're up for a challenge.
looks:; Agape is a rather large sized wolf, probably two sizes shy of being a dire wolf. He is more muscular than lengthy. He's designed for fighting mostly. His pelt is a pure white and his eyes are amber.

Name; Timber
Age; 4 years
Gender; Male
Rank: Beta?
Desired Rank: Alpha
Sexuality: Straight

Eyes; Green
Pelt; dull brown gray with various white and black markings
Build; broad shoulders and a muscular form

K I N
Kin; unknown/ open
Crush; Open
Mate; Open
Pups; None

Character Timber, despite his often intimidating appearance, is a gentle spirit. He is lively and well mannered but never refuses the opportunity to fight. He is intelligent and well versed which comes with moons of experience and enables him to carry on conversations with ease. He's a friend to all for the most part and willingly puts the needs of others before himself. He is always front and center, and is valuable in battles. He is quick to trust but not blindly so, though don't toy with this wolf as his sweet and friendly ways are merely just a fraction of who he is. If one is to turn their back on him, or betray him or even a loved one you'd better watch your back for moons to come as this wolf rarely forgives and never forgets. All debts must be paid and he is as ruthless as them come if he or one he cares for has been wronged. The heartache and struggles of the pack have made this a wolf lion-hearted and extremely protective. Timber at some point would
likely make a devoted mate and protective father

Name; Valor
Age; 3 years
Gender; female
Rank: Scout

T H E O U T S I D E

Pelt; White with a brown tinge and various gray, black and brown marking scattered across her pelt

K I N
Kin; unknown/ open
Crush; Aidan.
She very much so admires his strength and outspoken personality though Valor doubts her chances of ever being with him and constantly tries to push away her feelings for him.
Mate; Open
Pups; None

Character Valor is an ambitious wolf in the purest of ways. She's a sweet individual who shows the upmost tolerance and patience within the pack, often being the ears to distraught pack-mates. She takes it upon herself to handle the small social matters and she's quite the sociable female. With that in mind tho she's highly intelligent and quick-minded. She is extremely hard to manipulate and has an innate ability to see through someones lies, her cautious and suspicious ways proven useful in times of judgement but she's a diplomatic individual who believes justice should be fair and well executed.
She isn't quick to trust others and she's a force to be reckoned with during a spar, fight, or even during battle and her long legs make her quite the runner. She doesn't go down easy and her skill in combat is both well known and well earned. Though should you find yourself within her trust you'll get to bear witness to a gentle and loving spirit. She makes the most loyal of friends and one day will prove to be a loving mate and possibly even mother to pups but finds herself scared of commitment and of being hurt.

mark for a Male scout

[haru ;]

full name ; ; aidan
name meaning ; ; aidan was born small. but his mother saw the spirit in him and hence named him thus, meaning "little fire"
aliases ; ; none
gender ; ; male
age ; ; 4 years old
ranking ; ; scout
scent ; ; a mixture of musky forest scents, the faintest tinge of metallic petrichor
voice ; ; low and purposeful, very rich and full sounding
physical description ; ; a tall and muscular wolf

- aidan is startlingly tall, with relatively broad shoulders and a strong frame
- his thick pelt is a sea of colours — black and tan and brown and yellow, of which the yellow is most prominent on his legs and the black and brown on his back.
- dark, intelligent eyes like onyx stones
- perfectly triangular ears atop his skull.
- when he was born, many had thought aidan would turn out small, but he underwent an almost shocking growth when he was an adolescent.
- aidan is by no means the largest wolf, but his form tends to radiate presence.

personality ; ; aidan had always been the most outspoken one of his litter. he frequently rebelled against the rules, and had proven himself crafty enough to slip out of the sticky consequences that would ensue. this particular aspect is now more subdued when he is older as he has a position and job to fulfill, but aidan still possesses that sharp tongue and wit, as well as a head full of cunning ideas. of the litter, he would be the ringleader in their games. his mother was often at her wit's end when it came to him, but as he grew older, this streak of rebellious and fire was shown to be more than simply insolence. aidan just decided he had another way of doing things and wasn't afraid to try it out. he has learnt to take heed in the appropriate circumstances and reign in this apparent sense of impulsiveness, but this immense courage and alertness has proven him worthy of a true scout to protect the pack. with that, aidan always feels an undeniable need to protect his loved ones and when this is threatened, could very possibly turn brutal.

fears ; ; aidan fears being completely, utterly alone. while he is a rather independent wolf, all his life he has been emotionally attached to many wolves — his family, his pack — and the thought of losing them all seems devastating to him.

[haru ;]

full name ; ; mhairi
name meaning ; ; mhairi could mean many things. "wished-for child". "rebellion". "bitter". in a way they all make sense to her
aliases ; ; ria, fleet
gender ; ; female
age ; ; 4 years old
ranking ; ; delta
scent ; ; lavender, with a rich base of tea leaves
voice ; ; a sound that wolves will describe as someone who could sing. a soprano with a slight vibrato, soothing, and always sounding steadfast.
physical description ; ; a fast and lithe wolf

- mhairi is petite but sturdy. she packs a lot of power into her seemingly slender frame.
- with long, lean legs, she is the ideal wolf to lead a hunt. swift with quick reflexes.
- mhairi has a silky pelt that never seems to rest on one colour alone. it is of marble, with soft wings of tan behind her ears. an off-white tone with hints of dove grey on her neck.
- she has a pair of brilliant golden-amber eyes that used to scare some of her litter mates.

personality ; ; mhairi's mother wished for a daughter. she received two daughters and three sons. since young, mhairi had always a sort of rivalry with her sister kardia, constantly striving to be recognised as the more talented one. there were times when she resented her sister for trying to best her in every aspect. this has made mhairi rather competitive and instilled within her a strong sense of doing her best. she was rather individualistic and used to only focus on improving herself, but after kardia fell severely sick for a period of time, the shock forced mhairi to seriously consider her loved ones. she has now become very empathetic, though the independent instinct still hasn't faded from her. in this sense, she and her brother aidan are the most similar. while aidan is the driving force, she is carefully pulling strings behind the operation. she finds it more difficult to trust than her aidan and most of the time would rather be alone, but mhairi is a caring friend and would potentially become a devoted mother. she doesn't shirk responsibility and has always been seen as trustworthy and reliable. however, she isn't very tolerant of many things, and often comes across as stiff, as aidan likes to remind her ever so frequently. the same uncanny observance and wit runs in the family.

fears ; ; mhairi's fear is simple — losing. whether she loses out in sharing a kill or fails to prove herself, she hates the bitter taste of disappointment. some say she puts too much pressure on herself to do well for fear of letting others down.
theme song ; ; run by bangtan sonyeondan

"make me run more. let my feet rip apart with wounds.
at least i can smile when i see you.
i run run run,
it's okay to fall.
i'm alright, even if i can't have you."

Orabelle
Female
Caretaker
2 1/2 years old
Bisexual

|scent;; morning dew||


- empathetic and friendly, Orabelle fits her role perfectly. She’s always had a knack for helping others. Her small frame didn’t allow for much skill in hunting, and while her long legs provided her with quick movement, she just couldn’t stomach the thought of fighting. She has a great memory and is always seeking for more knowledge. Her quick wit and patience make her good at problem solving. However, she is very emotional. She tends to let her heart override her brain and it can get her in trouble. It’s hard for her to lose the wolves she can’t help, and she tends to blame herself.

+likes;; |Nighttime- she’s always been drawn to the small, twinkling stars only visible on the clearest of nights. She loves the dim light of the moon.|•|Rain on a sunny day. While some see it as bad luck, she finds this phenomenon beautiful.|•|Learning. Knowledge is like food to her.|

-dislikes;; |Winter. Snowstorms and cold days put her in a bad mood. Blizzards limit visibility and winter is overall just one huge convenience. Herbs and medicines are out of season and colds are more prominent- making her job a lot riskier and more difficult.|•|Confrontation. Orabelle has never been a fan of arguing or fighting. She’s good with words, but in physical altercations she’s at a major disadvantage and would rather just avoid the situation.|

[Echos]

Jax
Male
Omega
4 1/2 years old.
Bisexual

|scent;; He carries the slight scent of burnt oak.|
- On the run from his previous pack, Jax stumbled upon this group of wolves. He was delta in his old pack, and adjusting to the role of omega is hard on him. He has no authority, no say in anything, and it tears him up. He doesn’t like being told what to do. But he can’t make it on his own and must deal with the struggle. While he takes orders {not without some disdain}, he still holds a sort of resentment for those above him. He can be snappy and doesn’t get along with others very well. For this reason, it’s difficult for Jax to be close to other wolves, even if he’s been around them for quite some time now.

+likes;; |Being left alone. If no one talks to him, then no one’s giving him orders. He’s not lazy by any means, it’s just the fact that he himself didn’t make the decision to hunt, patrol, etc.|•|Himself. Enough said. He’s a bit arrogant definitely, his pride is the only thing left of him.|•|Outside of camp. Running through trees gives him a sense of freedom that he can’t normally observe.|

-dislikes;; |As stated before, Jax hates authority. The only opinion he necessarily cares about is that of the Alpha- which is the only voice he took orders from when he was delta. Everyone else he sees as beneath him.|•| Teamwork. Yes, he can decide when things need more than one wolf to work out. However, Jax is very independent and feels the need to do whatever he can on his own. He sees asking for help as weak. |
