Why do you want this character? :
This charrie is so perfect. Her lines, her colouring.. ugh, just all of it. I can't sum up how much I want this character, it's like my dream thrown all into one character. p.e.r.f.e.c.t.i.o.n. I really want it also because I think I can come up with a good background for her. She;ll be thoroughly looked after and adored.
Where will you use it, and what will you use it for?:
It will not be taken off cs, apart from being shown on my charrie website. I will make a story up around her, which will also be posted on my website. I may even end up roleplaying with her.

Name: Lark. It's the name of a dark coloured quick flying bird. I thought it suited her elegant disposition.
Gender: Lark's a fae/female.
Age: 3 years old. I think she looks in her teen years.
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Breed: Wolf, maybe with canine influence.
Personality:

I'm introverted. I'm not shy, but I'm not very good at talking, so I just prefer to stay quiet. I don't get angry easily. I hardly ever argue with others. I do get sad easily. I have been going through depression since childhood. I hardly share my feelings with others. It's rare to see me get excited, or show happiness, because showing those kind of emotions makes me feel embarrassed.
I would say that I'm smart, and that I'm very logical. I'm not gullible or naive. I often get told that I'm smart, though, so maybe I overestimate my intelligence and get bigheaded sometimes.
I admit that I'm vain at times. My appearance matters a lot to me. I like to look good, because it makes me feel good.
I would say that I'm nice. I don't find the misfortunes of others to be funny. I feel very uncomfortable when I see others laughing at somebody, even if that person did something stupid or cruel. I also don't like saying things that make people feel uncomfortable. If I think I hurt somebody's feelings, I quickly become embarrassed.
I don't talk stupid stuff about people, but my reasonings for this are for selfish reasons. The reason why I don't talk about people badly, isn't because I care about their feelings, but because I care about my own reputation and don't want to be known as a backstabber. Usually, when I want to talk about somebody behind their back, it's because they've been mean to me.
I like things that most people don't care about. Like art museums. And biographies.
I also like more popular things, like cartoons and video games. I'm a well-rounded type of wolf, definitely.

History:

I was born and had a good life living with my parents and brother. I had some good friends and some not so good friends. I was bullied when I got into high school, still as the youngest of the family, and I hated it. Then my baby sister was born, and that totally mucked up my life! My parents couldn't cope with the extra pressure. They yelled a lot, and have arguments all the time. My little sister doesn't care, and she never gets the blame for anything. My family gets more mucked up everyday as not my aunt has decided not to live with my uncle and everything's just stupid right now.

Everyday I go through mental and psychological stress no matter how much I try to fight it. I always feel like everyone's out to get me. Years and years of put downs, criticism and people's negative opinions of me have completely shattered my confidence to the point where I don't feel normal anymore. I get so anxious in public because i'm scared to death that people think I don't look or act normal. Life is mentally and Psychologically hard for me. I've been told negative things about myself so many times and it's turned me into a scared person who feels humiliated all the time. I know that what other people think shouldn't affect me but the things they say replay in my mind again and again. Not worrying about what other people think is much easier said than done.

That's why I live alone, now. I have no contact with anyone from my past life. They're long forgotten about. I have my few close friends, but other than that, I'm simply Lark. I've learnt to live in my own company.

Theme Song: Lady Gaga - Bad Romance.
Quote from Lark:
'Fighting is hard, but everyday is a new one and you have to keep punching back at life.'
Likes, dislikes:
Likes food, her closest friends, simple things. Dislikes her family and criticism as well as negative opinions.
Extras: (optional)andalana

Character information

Name:

Roscoe

Gender:

Male

Personality:

Roscoe is a very friendly dog who loves to be around his friends. He doesn't like to be alone very often. He prefers the daytime over the nighttime. Roscoe loves to spend his time outside more than anything but occasionally he enjoys being lazy indoors. He loves to dance to music although he's not very good at it. He is always getting into mischief and loves to go on adventures! He is very creative and sweet. Roscoe has a kind, gentle heart, and lends a helping paw whenever he can. He is very trustworthy and loved by many.

History:

Roscoe was born to two intelligent fighting dogs. His mother and father were very strict and hot-tempered. They were very kind unless angered though. Roscoe' parents taught him fighting techniques and many other things. His sister was not of his mother, but had the same father as him. His brother was from the latest litter of pups and was the only one to survive. His sister and brother did not like him very much and therefore he learned to find comfort in himself, which he did not like very much. They were all very pampered pups until one day his parents kicked him out to fend for himself. They rarely checked on him, but he enjoyed being out of their company now that he had made new friends.

Oh, I apologize, then. XD Your name hasn't been updated on the first page, so I thought that Dragoncloud was someone different.

Why do you want this character?
I realy like the design. All the spots and the stripes make her look so cute! I fell for her <3
Where will you use it, and what will you use it for?
I might come up with a story for all my dog/wolf characters, where this little cutie will of course play a part in it. Maybe she will be the mate for one of my characters. I actually thought of one of those three, since Im planing on make her a stray dog too.


Character information
Name:
Keriann (Kerry for short)
Why did I choose this name:
I was searching for something short, but nice. Just like my three brothers are called Sammy, Mike and Vito. The name should not be to complicated. On one of my naming sites I found the irish name Kerry or Keriann, what means dark haired. I thought it would fit and Kerry sounds really cute to me.
Gender:
female
Species:
Dog (a mix)

Personality:
First to say, Keriann is a rather calm character. She will never be the one keeping a conversation going, since she doesnt talk lots. Actually she even hates it, when others keep talking lots, without saying anything. This makes smalltalk a rather hard thing for her. When she wants to say something, she will always directly say it. She doesn't understand the ritual of talking about the weather first. Very sensitive characters might take things she said personally, since she does not always know how to frame the sentences in a soothing way.
Kerry is a little shy, what makes it harder for her to find new friends. This is another reason why she isnt talking that much. If its not really important, she wont say it. Having a pack to live with is important though. Even though she is shy, she will try to find others to form a pack. Its not that she couldn't survive alone, but having others aroung her means a little more safety to her. Of course she would do everything for her pack. Never be the one waiting for the others to bring food or protect her. She would fight in the first row if needed, but she can also see when fighting is useless, and will lead to nothing but pain.
Keriann enjoyes life as a stray dog. It means freedom to her and independence. Humans only make her think of chains, small homes, and little territory. And of course behavior. She doesnt want to always do what her owner would want her to do. She doesnt like it at all when someone doesnt ask for something but rather gives orders. Its not that she wouldnt accept any other dog to be the leader of her pack, but she will not accept one that doesnt take advice from the other pack members. One that only gives orders and takes all the food for himself. If she would get in a pack lead by somebody like this, she would first of all try to convince her pack that he is the wrong leader. That they should choose another one. And if they dont listen to her, she would try to leave. I know, it isnt always that easy, but lets just hope she will find a friendly pack.
Even as we know now, she prefers being part of a group, she needs some time to be alone too. In a city its of course hard to find a place to be alone. Even harder to find a silent place. She really likes to live in a city though. There are so many things to explore, so many ways to get food, and this amazing things, small children sometimes drop in summer (she means ice cream). And when she wants to be alone, there are always some dark alleyways that no one likes to enter. She is not afraid to meet strange creatures there. She just enjoys the loneliness. If she ever met starngers there? Well, if she does, she just turnes around and runs. Thats the advantage of a big city. You can just run to a big street and hide between those lots of people.

Likes, dislikes:
+ cloudy, misty days
+ silence
+ ice cream
- hot temperatures
- lots of talking without saying anything
- chains

History:
It was a cloudy day, when a light brown female dog layed down in a small forest next to a rather big city. She knew, that her baby was about to be comming. She also knew, that she couldn't give it a better life than she had. Always close to starving, when nobody has compassion with a poor dog. No warm place to sleep at night. No food. No safety. A few raindrops started to fall when she finally gave birth to a little girl.
She somehow looked a bit like her father. He was such a proud, well cared for dog. And what a pitty he couldn't see his daughter right now. He would have loved her. As much, as her mother loved her. But he wasnt a stray dog like those two. He was living with humans. The mother didn't even know, where he lived. One day she would try to find him. One day they would all be together. But first she had to care for her daughter. For Keriann.
This was how Kerry was born. She grew up wwith her loving mum. Learned everything she needed to know from her, and loved her life. It wasnt like her mother always said. She wasnt always hungry, she found plenty to eat. It also wasnt always could at night. There were empty boxes to sleep in, or big open houses, with lots of stuff inside, where she could hide and play. Her mum always told her about the great life her father has. Living in a house with humans who loved him. Kerry only knew humans who got mad, when they saw her. How could those two legd creatures love a dog? When she saw those poor individuals owend by humans, on their leashes, she was always glad to be a free dog.
One day her mum decided to search for her dad. "We will be a happy family again.", she always said. Kerry couldn't belive this. First of all, she had never seen her father. Not that kind of a careing one, huh? Second, it ment humans. And she really didnt like humans. But well, her mum wanted to find him, and Kerry didn't want to hurt her. So they left their territory, and took a long walk through this big city. It took them weeks full of shouting humans, grumpy dogs and agressive cats to find a district with small houses (Kerry just knew those big buildings that almost touch the sky) that even had small gardens.
Dogs were sometimes kept outside in the garden. Had their own very small house and a chain that held them back. Other dogs were carried around in bags and head pink ribbons around their necks. Again Kerry was glad to be a stray dog. She would never want to wear a ribbon or a chain. Her mum either didn't care for all that, or even liked the imagination of wearing something. Suddenly she even started to wag her tail.
"Mum?", Keriann asked, "what makes you so happy right now?"
"Dont you smell it?", her mum smiled at her. Kerry took a deep breath. Yes, there was a smell she knew somehow. She never really smelled it before, but she still knew it. And that should be a reason to be happy? She rather thought it was strange and scary.
"This is the smell of your father!"
"So we finally found him?", Kerry asked.
"Yes, he has to be arround here."
Both of them continued their walk. They came to a nice yellow house where a huge, strong dog looked at them happily.
"Finally you came to me!", he said, "is this my daughter?"
Kerrys mother nodded her head. Then the two of them started to talk lots about the past. Sometimes Kerry was asked a few things. She was supposed to be as happy as her mother, but she wasnt. When the humans of this dog came back, she even hided. They where strangely nice. Her mother waged her tail to greet them. How could she? But the humans laughed and stroked her head. Kerry didn't understand all of this. It was not what she was used to. Humans were angry creatures. Why would her mum want to be friendly with them? And why didnt they shout at her? They even opend the garden door and let her in.
When her mum called Kerry to get out of her hideout, she refused to. "Mum, I will never enter a humans home. I dont want to make you leave aswell, but I cant stay here. Im old enough now, to go my own way. Dad, take good care of her!", those were the last words she said, before she ran away. Her mum wanted to follow her, but the male held her back. "It was her choice," he said, "and she is right. She is old enough to go her own way." Kerry was crying. Nobody told her, how hard the day would be, when she left her mum. She knew that it had to come, but she missed her right away.
The next few days she always returned to her fathers house. Sometimes she had the chance to talk to her parentes. They spoke about the whole thing again, and made their peace with Kerrys desicion. She promised them to visit them sometimes and not go to far away for the moment. But she wanted to start her own new life now. First of all with finding a pack to live with.
Thats when she encounters the three brothers Sammy, Mike and Vito.

Extras:
Meeting Sammy, Mike and Vito:
Vito: Hey! What are you doing here?
Kerry: Im just searching for a pack I could live with.
Vito: (taking a closer look at her) Why should we accept you as a part of our pack? You seem to be kind of useless... Look at you! We would always have to take care of you, protect you from others and feed you through. We cant need someone like you!
Kerry: (verry subdued) Im not that weak...
Mike: Hey Vito! Dont you always be so grumpy! She needs our help, and we shouldn't refuse to help her.
Vito: We already have to care for Sammy. I dont want to spend less attention on him, because of her.
Mike: I think you need a girl Vito! Sammy is old enough to care for himself. He is not as weak as you think. Sure, we have to protect him sometimes, but maybe she can help us a little. (to Kerry) Ignore that wary old dog. We will be happy to have you around.
Vito: Im only a little older than you are, so dont you dare calling me an old dog again. (to Sammy) What do you think, should we accept her in our pack?
Sammy: Yes, why not. She seems to be quite nice.
Kerry: Thank you.
Sammy: (blushing) Nothing to speak of.
Vito: Okay then... Since you are all against me, welcome to our pack little girl...
Mike: (smiling at Kerry) Yes, welcome to our pack. Whats your name by the way?
Kerry: Oh sorry... My name is Keriann, but you can call me Kerry.
Mike: Nothing to excuse! Im happy to have you around Kerry!
Sammy: (verry quietly) Me too.
Kerry: Thanks. I promise to not cause any trouble!
Vito: *sigh*
