Personality:
Behind -- Rarely anyone sees the storm going on inside of her, her face is usually a mask of impassiveness, except for when she’s painting or running (w/four legs) that anything is really ever shown. It’s actually a type of defense. It’s not that she’s bothered by what other people think, she’s bothered by the fact that she isn’t sure about others. Since That day, she’s always had issues deciding who she can or can’t trust, and experiences have just really made it worse. Of course, that’s not to say, that if she gets the chance to seriously analyze you, and by that I mean, drawing your face or having a seriously in depth conversation, she won’t be your best friend, because she will be.

The -- Once she gets over the initial hesitancy of new people, or not knowing who to trust, things are easier. Conversation flows, she laughs, emotions show to others, though still not to the extent they possible could. However, once she realizes the kind of person you are, and whether or not she’d like to be associated with you, she trusts deeply. It’s just the initial stage that’s rather hard. She’ll always have your back, the strongest bond of trust there is, willing to do just about anything.

Mask – She’s a very caring person, who loves deeply, and hurts deeply. She’d be horrified if anyone whom she cared about would be hurt in anyway, even just the thought of a scratch. She’s never been extremely violent, even when her rare temper does decide to show itself. Viv, well she loves and she hates. A person on her bad side stays on her bad side, unless they prove themselves extremely worthy. She maintains a level head most times, in disasters she doesn’t panic very easily, and is known to be rather brave when she has to be. Most think of her as rather timid, but she’s not really. She's got a feirce determination, and refuses to let anyone tell her what she can and can't do. She's got unwavering loyalty to those she deems worthy, and a steely resolve when threatened.

// General History:

Character History:
Born On January 11th, to a were mother and her human imprint, there small cabin the delivery room. She was the first child of her parents, and the last. Her Birthparents were extremely proud of her, and spoiled her rotten while they could. She had a rather easy early childhood. Played with a few other children nearby, but never was really a friend to any of them. They were too loud for her liking. Even as a small child she drew pictures all the time, and seemed fascinated with the nature around her. Mother had stopped changing, and father wished to break the news to her when she was older.

The “Fire” was a horrible day for her family. Though she now refuses to believe it was still just a fire. There were people there, and guns. But, somehow her parents were killed, though she remained alive. Her neighbors managed to get her away from the scene, and sheltered her in their home for a few nights, but she was a growing girl, but most were after all, only human, so she was shuffled off soon after. The next few months were a haze of social workers, and foster homes. Her meager belonging thrust into a garbage bag, degraded into thinking she was just that. Garbage. Her adopted parents, whom she never realized were her adoptive parents, until she would turn 7, would soon grace her life.

Adolescence was easier. Though she struggled through school, but breezed through all the art classes they allowed her. She managed to escape high school with a diploma, bound for the local college, and their basic programs. Two years after that day, she left with a scrap of paper, saying all her work was justified, and that she had nothing to worry about. Life would be simple after this. Okay, maybe it didn’t really say that, but that’s what she thought.

She high tailed it away from Arizona, and only ever felt comfortable once she'd settled in Washington, the place they'd told her she'd originally been from. A small second floor flat, surrounded on all sides by people who were more than willing to welcome her. Weeks would pass, lady just sitting around still unseure what to d0 with herself when the park opening showed up. It was completely unexpected, but she tried it and loved it, they trained her, and in no time she was a full, certified ranger. Plus, most of the constant partolling gave her plently of things to sketch.

// Roleplay:

Sample here:
‘ Viviana knew something was wrong, this scene was too familiar, and too repetitive, she couldn’t be having this dream again could she? Oh yes, she could. The snow around the small cabin gave it away, the only memories she’s able to recall form that time are of winter. It looks almost picturesque, but she knows what lurks inside. Though this dream has played thousands and thousands of times through her subconscious, she still can help the irrational fear that creeps up her spine. Though she wills herself not to, her body reacts to the dream, and walks slowly toward the door, a pale hand pushing it open with a creak. Though, she knows it’s always what she’ll see, the shrill scream escapes her throat, almost before she lays eyes on the bodies. Bloodied, but burned as well, they lay in front of her, most certainly not just caught in a fire. However, despite the déjà vu she was experiencing the same emotions played out in her mind the same horrific guilt and agony that made her scream.

Comforter and sheet flew back from her figure, as she vaulted forward from her mattress. The dark room looked the same it had last night, when she’d awoken in just the same manner. Feet slid to rest upon the now icy cold wooden floor, leaving her to wince slightly. Figure plodded slowly from her bedroom, to behold the grandfather clock she’d bought at an antique sale. 2:40 a.m. Great. Her form would half fall, half recline onto the couch, eyes moving to focus upon the form of the figures moving across the silent TV screen, muted so as not to wake her neighbors. Her memories seemed fit to glide along the path that her dream had set. ‘

“What do you mean? I’m not your child?” The form she’d clutched so tightly in her grasp, fluttered to the floor, the names printed on it meaningless. “Well Babe” her father --- no Allen started, a guilty look plastered upon his face. They should have told her. Sure, she was seven, and still completely traumatized by the glimpses of things she could barely remember, haunted by nightmares of the scenario, but she should have been told “When we met you, you didn’t speak, and they told us you were a troubled case. We decided you were perfect for us anyway, and adopted you on the spot. Don’t you remember?”

No, of course I don’t remember, I can only remember faces, and glimpses even of the happier times or anything remotely solid until just before my fifth birthday, and even then when it was clear I didn’t know, they refused to tell me. “Of course you were very young then baby. Viv? Are you alright?!” Mo---Maureen asked, an edge of panic rising into her tone she must have noticed the trembling, how could she even think Viviana was alright? Her life, excepted for the most horrific part, was a complete and utter lie. They led her along like this for 3 years. “What’s my name?” Guyer couldn’t be her last name could it? She wasn’t born to these people after all, they were liars. “Sweetheart, Your name is Viviana Guyer” Maureen’s tone was quiet, on the edge of tears.

Viviana managed to gather the strength to stare up at them, the mask of no emotion settling into place. “My Real Name.” Allen, who’d lapsed into silence as she had chosen to ignore his earlier question. “You were born Viviana Marie Locais” Icy blue gaze blinked twice, it seemed like the name finally fit her now, after all she’d never looked like either of them, and there had been clues, she was just blind to them. “Locais. That’s my last name, not Guyer” Maureen was crying now, sobbing was more like it, her head cradled in her hands, Allen was torn, between comforting his wife, or the trembling child in front of him. Viviana turned, and the form she’d dropped was trampled beneath her bare feet as she fled to her room. Titled “My Family Tree” It was never finished.


Viviana sighed, and shifted, her attention having wavered from the show, what had caused her to think of that day? That day when she, so horribly angry and hurt, after telling them she was no longer a Guyer screamed at them to change her name back, and return her to the shelter, where people cared enough not to lie to her. Of course, that was after the fright had passed, and the sadness, finally mourning for the blurring memories of the people who were actually her family. Obviously she had no others, and Maureen and Allen were soon forgiven, though her name was returned to its original state.

STOP IT VIV! She chided herself, such thinking only made her thoughts eventually return to that of the nightmare, and the memories, and she wasn’t in the mood for dream analysis again. Eyes flicked toward the clock, 3:20. The TV had long since changed shows, some late night cartoon now rolled across the screen. She stared at it; letting the flashes and rhythms lull her, hopefully back into a dreamless sleep, for a short time at least. ‘

Alright, though I am impressed with your rp sample, I cannot help but feel that there has to be some changes made to this application before we can accept it.

The first thing noticed comes from your description, comparing her wolf form to that of an Ethiopian wolf may not be the wisest thing, considering her nationality does not seem like one that’d carry the genotype for a species that is commonly associated with the jackals (which are always of African or Middle Eastern descent). And also might I advise that you remove the term “almost black” considering how rare the black and white pelts are in werewolves.

The second thing we noticed is the history. Though I am a believer in tragic pasts to some extent, I cannot help but feel that the drama was over done, having her parents murdered, her house burned down and being abused by others in an unsanitary orphanage. I’d suggest touching this up a bit.

I've changed things a bit.

Though, at the moment without changing the part about her time in the foster homes, because it's molded the character, you know?

It's been changed, so as to be not as much of a trial on her, but I'm unsure If I really want to erase it totally...

Is that alright?

Honestly I cannot say I am liking the history, because it still seems to me too unreal and too overly dramatic for most rp boards and definately would not fit in with Kelly's pack. Though I will let you keep it if you fix up the character a bit. Given how traumatic the events would be, she wouldn’t be as timid or docile as you made her seem. She’d probably be more aggressive and strong after all, wolves are survivors, they aren’t weak creatures and considering that shifting and emotions go hand in hand I think it’d be fitting if she had a stronger personality.

And on the subject of the pack, I'd say that she'd better fit in with Apollo's or the Southwestern Packs with that history.

Anyway make the changes as you see fit and let us know when you’re done

    I do have to agree with Rene on this one. If she was originally from Washington, She would have been cared for as Kelly has been Alpha since he was 16 years old. He would have found her and brought her back. As for her personality? Being a survivor she would be a lot stronger and would have that survival instinct. And as we are trying to get people to stray away from the horrid, abusive past... I can understand why Rene is a little leery of accepting this application. At this moment, this character will not fit with Kelly's pack. She would do better if you keep this history and personality with Malachai, or Apollo as they are the two fatherly type Alpha's.

    But as you wish to probably keep the character with the past and History she has, you need to let us know which of the two suggested pack's you would like her to be in. I will speak tot he two people who play the Alpha's and ask them where she would fit. But the final approval of this application goes to Rene.

    We are not trying to be harsh here, we just have had an influx of characters with such similar histories that we are a little turned off by it. We would for once like to have a character with a pretty normal background and history. That does not stop what you wanted with this character. For her not to have grown up among wolves. That is easy enough to explain. They did not know, if you consider her adopted, and no one came to find her. As she might have grown up somewhere, where there was no Pack like Canada, Alaska or even the deep south. We are here to help in any way shape or form with this character which is why we offer up our suggestions. Please feel free to either PM me or Rene, and we would love to help.
