Alix
``flesh me out
Name: Alix
Nicknames:
Pronunciation: Al-icks
Health Statues: Healthy
Alliance: Vigilant
``under the skin
Years: 1 year
Gender: Male
Breed: Ethiopian Wolf
Appearance: Alix is quiet scrawny even for an Ethiopian. He is smaller than average, barely 20 inches at the shoulder, and his thin fur shows just how scrawny and skinny he is. His fur is very thin and almost scruffy looking, no matter how clean he keeps it. His pelt is mostly a reddish brown, but gets lighter further down, leading to a light grey underbelly. The grey continues up his chest in the front, over his neck and and surrounding his facial features, like his eyes and muzzle.
Alix's face is primarily grey. The reddish brown stops after his ears, (his ears being the same colour as his body). His muzzle darkens at some parts, streaked with black, almost as if he stuck his nose into a pile of soot. His eyes are a ice blue, lighter near the pupil and deep blue on the outside. On his legs, the red fades out almost completely, making them a plain brown. His front left paw is light grey as well, matching his chest and underbelly. His tail is very dark in comparison to the rest of him, a dark black.
``inside my mind
Personality: Alix is generally quite happy and it takes something considerable to upset him. He is ever the optimist and typically doesn't mind doing hard work. His bright outlook on life isn't always the best mindset though, considering the world he lives in. Often, Alix is too trusting. He is very loyal to those he has befriended and quick to defend them and stick up for them. However, if you break his trust, it can be very hard to gain it back. He holds a strong grudge and isn't one to forgive and forget. If you hope to regain his friendship, you have to prove that you can be trusted.
Alix is a conversationalist, and can be very persuasive. He is very inquisitive and curious too, which has stuck him in a bad situation more than once before. He has no issues having a conversation with someone he just met, although he is very careful when it comes to keeping secrets. In general, Alix is simply a very open and cheeky wolf, not quite having grown out of his childish stage.
``origins
Parents: Mara (dead), Lore (infected)
Siblings: None.
History: Alix grew up surrounded by family. When he was young, both of his parents were alive and well, so he was constantly aware of how close a family could be. He was close to his mother, who enjoyed his gentle nature. He wasn't very athletic when he was young and didn't enjoy fighting like his father valued, so he wasn't very close to him. Alix enjoyed exploring though, always curious about the woods they lived in. When Alix was about 6 months old, he was off in the woods,and his parents were attacked by an infected wolf. Mara, their mother, was killed, and Lore was too many times and became infected. Alix came back to find his mother dead and his father acting strange. Alix didn't understand what had happened at first, but when he tried to come closer and see what happened, his father turned on him. He ran and only escaped him by hiding somewhere too small for his father to get in. After a while, he slowly ventured out. He couldn't hunt very well and would starved to death, if he hadn't been found by Dakota. Dakota took pity on him and gave Alix some well needed food. He took Alix under his wing,and the two stuck together after that.
Dakota taught Alix everything he knew about hunting and basically surviving. The two consider each other brothers, although not by blood. They stayed on their own and avoided any other wolves, rarely staying in one place for long. When Alix was a year old, he decided he wanted to be with more wolves and be apart of a pack. Dakota warned him of the risk, but Alix insisted. Dakota was still against the idea and said he wouldn't come if Alix chose to find a pack. The two agreed to go their separate ways, but made a pact to come to the others aid if they could. Alix went on his own to find a pack.
Dakota
``flesh me out
Name: Dakota
Nicknames: Kota
Pronunciation: Duh-Koh-Tah
Health Statues: Healthy
Alliance: Loner
``under the skin
Years: 3 years
Gender: Male
Breed: Great Plains Wolf
Appearance: Dakota is a very large wolf, a full 41 inches at the shoulder. He is your average Great Plains wolf, well muscled and built for strength and power. His vastness is only increased by his thick fur. His fur is mostly black, so if you judge from his dark appearance, he does not look like a wolf you want to be in a fight with. His fur is jet black on his upper back, but fades a bit lower down so his paws are more of a grey. He hates the heat because of how thick his fur is, and it attracts the sun because of its dark colouring. His fur has flecks of white and silver in it, giving him an eerie appearance at night, especially when he is moving. The lighter flecks appear to vanish and reappear with his shifting fur.
Dakota's face is streaked with silver, and his muzzle is almost completely silver. His eyes are a deep green, flecked with lighter shades of green. He has a long scar on his right flank form an injury when he was young, and he gets a bit of a limp from it. Kota also has another scar across his chest.
``inside my mind
Personality: Dakota can come across as very dark and bitter. He doesn't enjoy the the company of many, although not many go out of their way to become friends with him anyways because of the impression he tends to give off. He can be a bit of a trickster, and enjoys stirring up trouble for the fun of it. His main reaction to, well, anything is sarcastic and taunting comments. He is arrogant and cocky, thinking very highly of himself. He doesn't scare very easily and hates backing down from a challenge, no matter how big the feat. He is quick to anger and doesn't forgive very well.
On the off chance that he does make a friend, Kota lightens up on a lot of his less desirable qualities considerably. When he was around Alix, he was a lot more calm and easy going, but now that he is on his own again he is more volatile and quick to react negatively. He is very solitary and avoids always avoids other wolves.
``origins
Parents: Luna (dead) and Morrin (unknown, most likely alive.)
Siblings: A sister, Renna (alive, healthy)
History: Dakota's mother died when he was young, leaving Dakota and his sister in the care of his father. Their father started training them young. He was very harsh with them, believing training them cruelly would make them tough and more likely to survive in this world. As much as Dakota tried, he could never please his father, while his sister was his prodigy. He learned quick to defend himself when he was used as bait for his sisters training. It wasn't long before he hated his father and sister. When Kota was almost a year old, his sister was instructed by their father do fatally injure or kill Dakota to complete her training, saying that it is important a wolf can kill another when necessary. Renna barely hesitated, leaving deep wounds across Dakota's chest and right flank. They abandoned him them, leaving him and thinking he would die. Kota forced himself to move to a safer location, and survived for a while on scavenged food, anything he could find. He was left with two scars and a permanent limp. Kota adjusted, using the few things he learned from his father, and survived on his own for a while.
When Dakota was 2, he found Alix, scrawny and weak from lack of food. He took pity on the pup and took him under his wing. The two were like brothers, and Alix's cheerful personality balanced out Dakota's darker one. They were a good team, Kota strong and powerful, Alix small and quick. Eventually, the two split up, Alix leaving to find a pack. Dakota still wasn't very trusting of other wolves, believing Alix to be one of the few who weren't infected or like his family so he decided against going with him. However, he followed Alix for a while, making sure he was safe and found what he was looking for. Dakota was different though on his own though with out Alix to balance him out, and has grown darker again, not the nicest guy. He manages on his own just fine though, enjoying his solitary life.
((Hope you don't mind that I made two characters. I've been in roleplays with multiple characters before, so I can keep them both active.))
