Name: Kit
- Meaning: the offspring of certain animals, such as foxes and beavers
- Pronunciation: kit
Aliases: A couple of wolves have called her Kitty or Kitten, but call her that and she'll rip you in half.
Age: 4 years
Subspecies: Wolfdog; she’s a mutt with all sorts of things going on with her. She's 75% percent wolf (specifically Eurasian, Iberian, and Mexican) and 25% Shiba Inu.
Allegiance: Fire Valley
- Rank: Delta
- Rank Desired: x
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: She's extremely ignorant and unaware of it, but she sometimes finds certain females very interesting.
Condition: Rather rough around the edges and covered in old wounds. Currently actually at a more normal weight for her height, since usually she's pretty obese.
- Height: 24in / 61cm
- Weight: 150lbs / 68kg
- Length: 4ft / 1.2m
Physique: Kit's built like a wild boar: great strength and heft in a small and compact body. She's one stocky beast, incredibly short both in height and in length, but she's immensely heavy, especially for her small height. Her legs are short and stumpy, thick and well-muscled, ending in small, compact paws. Her body is barrel-shaped, with a broad chest and shoulders and seeming to completely lack the defined waist and tuck a wolf should have. She has a short, thick neck, strong jaw muscles, and powerful muscles lining her torso, but she is far from lean. Her figure is soft and pudgy, with a lot of fat around her core. She's definitely overweight, maybe even obese, and has trouble keeping that extra weight off, even though she is very active and leads an athletic lifestyle.
Though she is a mature adult and is certainly filled out like one, Kit has an almost juvenile face, with her short, small muzzle, pudgy face, and small ears. Her head being proportionally large and being so short only contributes to this puppish appearance.
Fur: She's primarily a light tan color with cream undersides. Her coat is very light, save for the dark marks on her back and tail, ear rims, and lines running down her forelegs. There are warm greyish tones on her forehead, back, and tail. The fur between and behind her ears is a richer tan, the same color marking the bridge of her nose and her shoulders and forelegs. Kit has a very thick coat, once fluffy and woolly but now rough and spiked after years of poor health and abysmal grooming. Her fur appears even rougher as it is nearly always bristled and standing on end, making her appear even fatter than she already is.
Eyes: Kit has very round, wide eyes, alert and focused. They almost seem too open. At first glance, her eyes appear mostly bright yellow, with light green hues intermixed, creating a greenish-gold color similar to the skin of a d'anjou pear.
Imperfections: Kit has many scars from all her battles and misadventures, as she tends to heal pretty poorly and nearly any major injury she gets leaves behind a mark, a reminder of her struggle and survival. Her face is heavily scarred, with multiple cutting across her snout and under her jaw. There are three gashes across her left cheek and a small cut above her right eye. Surprisingly, her ears are fully intact, as are both eyes and her nose. Even more scars mark her body, especially her right side. Her right flank bears multiple large gashes from a fierce battle with a grizzly, extending from down by her shoulder, all the way to her back near her hip. Some fur grows over the scars, covering them somewhat, but when she sheds her winter coat, the scars are left bare and clearly visible. Equally distinctive would be the four cuts on her left shoulder, given to her by a cougar. There are other, smaller scars, such as the hidden bitemarks at her scruff, a couple on her hindlegs, and more that are hidden by her fur.
Physical Strengths
» Strong - Kit may not be a classically trained fighter, and she may be small, but she is incredibly strong, with her solid frame, bulky muscles, and bone-crushing bite. She makes a formidable and dangerous opponent, especially with her ferocity and aggression.
» Low Center of Gravity - Being short and stocky, Kit's center of gravity is very low, giving her great stability. Being so stable and low to the ground gives her a great advantage when grappling or charging at an opponent. She is nearly impossible to throw off, especially once she's grounded herself, and she finds it rather easy to upset a taller opponent's balance
» Maneuverability - Kit is quick and light on her paws, pretty surprising considering how fat and heavy she is. Not only is she fast, but she's a small target, making her harder to hit and harder to trap, especially since she is easily able to slip out of most holds.
» Often Underestimated - Being small, most do not expect Kit to be very tough, and being fat, most do not expect Kit to be very athletic either.
Physical Weaknesses
» Weak Immune System - Kit was a rather sickly pup and even as an adult, it's very easy for her to fall ill. She's incredibly susceptible to colds and finds that when she's sick, it ravages her system pretty badly.
» Poor Reach - At her height, Kit doesn't have much reach in a fight. There isn't much she can do to an adversary from a distance, except for evade. She has to get in very close to do damage and that in of itself is a risk.
» Perceived as an Easy Target - No one is really intimidated by this runt, especially when damn near everybody towers over her. She is often looked down on and is not afforded much respect at the outset. Throughout her life, she has been picked on and targeted. She's found herself in far more fights than she likely would have if she were larger, or at least average.
Personality Type: Seems to be fairly introverted with a strong dislike for wolves and almost no patience for them.
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
MBTI: TBD
Enneagram: TBD
Western Zodiac: Aries
Overview: Kit's a quiet wolf who allows her actions to speak for her. Her words are rare and selective, often she might only speak to certain wolves she is close to, and even then she says little. Wolves she is unfamiliar with get nothing. She prefers to keep to herself for the most part. Other wolves get on her nerves and they talk too much. Sometimes they say irritating things, other times they say too much that it's hard for her to keep track of it, and other times she just doesn't understand what they're going on about. The worst part is that they expect her to say something back, but she never does.
She's usually fairly sullen and is very irritable and bad-tempered. She's quick to anger, and the smallest, most minute things can provoke her. She's aggressive and extremely violent when angered. It's gotten her in a lot of trouble in the past and she's been in a lot of fights that could have easily been prevented. But she has to stand up for herself somehow, and fighting is the best way she knows. After a good beating, most wolves back off and know not to mess with her. It's the reason she's managed to survive so long, despite being born so weak and pushed around by others almost her whole life.
Kit wants very much to be respected, but if the closest thing she can get is fear, then she will take it by force.
She's unpredictable and highly mercurial, her mood changing in the blink of an eye. One moment, she's snarling and frothing at the mouth, but the next, once she's released that energy, she's calm and peaceable. Kit doesn't hold grudges too much (if a wolf irritates her, she still won't like them and will be wary around them, but if it's been settled, she's unlikely to start a conflict unless they get on her nerves again), and she usually feels like once she's taught the other wolf a lesson, it's over with, but if there's still unfinished business, she can be very vengeful.
Kit is a brave and adventurous wolf, who knows no fear. Perhaps a wolf so small could use a bit more healthy fear to remind her of her own limitations, so she knows to choose her battles, but at the same time, her fearlessness allows her to step up to new challenges, to venture into the unknown, to seek new opportunities, and jump in to defend the few wolves she cares for from threats. She's a protector by nature, primarily of herself and her food, but of her friends and family too, and she won't allow anything to touch them on her watch.
She's loyal to her family and anyone she may consider a friend (though she's never exactly had a friend before), but doesn't tend to feel such an allegiance to packs. Part of it may be that she's never found a pack that suited her, where its members treated her well, where she actually liked it there. The other part of it may be that Kit is simply not interested in the vague idea of "companionship" that comes with a pack, but she likes the security and almost-guaranteed meals.
Besides banishment, difficulty getting along with others, and not having any members in her previous packs that mattered to her, her lack of commitment to her pack is a big part of why she has been a rogue for so long. And Kit enjoys wandering, not having to answer to anyone, and not being tied down, but it's a hard life and she sometimes thinks about trying the pack life again.
Kit is selfish and thinks little of others and their needs (their feelings are even less of a concern), or the needs of a collective group. Her primary concern is herself, and making sure that she is comfortable, satisfied, and has everything she needs. Perhaps one could even call her a little bit thoughtless in how she will do things that suit her without any consideration to how it affects everyone else. She's admittedly pretty careless, fickle, and irresponsible.
Mental Strengths
» Spirited - Kit has an unbreakable spirit and unstoppable willpower. She is determined and ferocious, with a great deal of energy and enthusiasm. She is extreme and fierce!
» Bravery - Kit has no fear! Nothing frightens her. Perhaps it makes her reckless and stupid, since she has no concept of her own limits, but her spirited nature and confidence suits her well. A little danger (or a lot of danger) won’t deter her.
» Lives in the Present - She's focused on the here and now, not really worried about the future or dwelling on the past. She just sees what's right there in front of her. Maybe she doesn't have the best planning or introspection skills, but this way, she has a lot less to stress over.
Mental Weaknesses
» Selective Mutism - Kit doesn't talk. There’s nothing wrong with her vocal cords. She can growl just fine, for example. Technically, she could speak, but she prefers not to, relying instead on her actions and body language. There’s just something different about her psychologically that makes her so quiet.
» Anger Issues - She has the worst temper in the universe. Something’s always got her riled up. Usually small things too, like somebody looked at her sideways and now she’s in a real murdery mood. Because of her temper, she’s prone to getting into fights, and that’s why she’s so scratched up all the time. Good thing she doesn’t seem to really hold grudges, unless there’s still unfinished business… in which case, you better watch out…
» Stubborn - If Kit wants to do something, you can’t stop her and there’s no point in even trying. She’s incredibly single-minded to the point where it’s absolutely unbelievable. No wonder she’s had so many near-death experiences.
» Unintelligent - She’s not very smart and sometimes it seems like she just doesn’t think. Technically, she does think, just not in a particularly intelligent way. She always takes things on a surface level, doesn’t think her actions through, and is pretty self-centered. It’s sometimes difficult for others to make total sense of her thought process.
Likes
» Eating is her favorite thing to do, and she will eat anything she can, whenever she can, but she has a particular fondness for bear meat. It's no surprise she's fat.
» Kit is less aggressive and wary around females—this doesn't say much, as she's still aggressive with them, but not as quick to attack, especially if she finds them "interesting."
» Kit likes exploring and finding all sorts of interesting things out in the wild. Besides committing some crime almost every time she tried to join a pack, her wanderlust is a large part of why she has been a rogue for so long.
» Kit is very playful with wolves she likes and is especially fond of wrestling. She plays rough and is extremely competitive and tends to be a very sore loser.
» Chaos
» Playing in mud[/ul]
Dislikes
» Kit does not share food.
» She hates being told what to do. No one is the boss of her, and you'd do well to remember that.
» She always hated being called Kitty. It was a common nickname for her, by her siblings, especially Cas, but also others who had no respect for her and would never take her seriously. Mostly, she associates the name with Cas, and she'd rather forget he ever existed.
» She hates to stay still. Kit is fairly fidgety and constantly needs to be moving.
» Kit doesn't like storms very much. Mostly the thunder and lightning. It's not that she's scared, but the noise is nerve-wracking.
» Cold weather
» Flirting, mainly if it's a male. She doesn't even seem to notice when a female flirts with her.
» Things she doesn't understand[/ul]
Fears: Kit isn't afraid of NOTHING! If you insinuate she's ever afraid, she'll disembowel you and strangle you with your guts. However, the sound of thunder tends to unnerve her and she often finds herself feeling a bit wary around deep water...
Insecurites: Her height, mostly. Kit often wishes she was taller and wasn't born the runt of an already small litter, then maybe she'd get some goddamn respect.
Quirks: Licks her lips when nervous. When she's frustrated, she'll huff or sigh through her nose.
(★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆ is average)
Physical
Strength | ★★★★★★★★★★ | Amazing strength in such a small package and she knows how to use it. Watch out for her boar-like charges.
Constitution | ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Really bad. Gets sick so easily and it's always such a dramatic affair.
Stamina | ★★★★★★☆☆☆☆ | A little above average
Speed | ★★★★★★★★☆☆ | Kit is insanely fast for being so small and fat with such short legs. It's really something else seeing her barrel her way across a field.
Agility | ★★★★★★★★☆☆ | Kit is great at evading attacks and closing in on an opponent. She has swift footwork and her short height helps her maneuver. However, she lacks the flexibility and jumping ability a wolf with superior agility would have.
Balance| ★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆ | Average
Mental
Stability | ★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Wild, unstable, unpredictable, and highly impulsive. Acts on whims and there's no telling what she will do next.
Charisma | ★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Lacking in social presence and grace. Rarely speaks and when she does, she cannot really command the attention of those around her, let alone the respect and recognition.
Resolve | ★★★★★★★★★★ | For all the things Kit lacks, she makes up for in sheer willpower and drive.
Intelligence | ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | She is not that smart... Kit was never really the most knowledgeable about anything, nor does she pick up on new things especially fast, nor does she really seek to learn.
Perception | ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Kit is typically dense and unaware of things other than what is obvious and clearly visible right in front of her. She misses details easily.
Wits | ★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆ | Thinks fast enough, but painfully lacking in intuition and is not really that clever.

Combat | ★★★★★★★★★★ | An aggressive and fierce fighter, learned everything she knows through direct experience when out on the field since no one ever really trained her.
Hunting | ★★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Nothing special and regularly fails to catch anything, even squirrels and mice.
Swimming | ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Kit doesn't like deep water for reasons, so she prefers to not swim, but she dos have some idea of how to do it.
Healing | ★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Doesn't even know plants can be used for medicinal purposes.
Stealth | ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Sneaking is dumb and pointless. She doesn't have the patience. She'd much rather just charge in, boldly displaying her ferocity!
Strategy | ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ | Not a very strategic thinker, at all, and doesn't really plan anything ahead of time. She just jumps in and does. Not really the best way to do things, but it seems like it's working well enough for her. She's not dead, so...

Theme Songs:
She was born long ago in a pack that lie in the shadow of a great mountain touched by spirits. Though she was the child of two chiefs, and by all accounts her childhood should have been carefree and easy, she and her siblings weren't born at the best time. Though she was barely a month and a half old, she can still remember her mother being bitten by another wolf. Kit isn't sure who he was and she can't remember what he looked like, but she vividly remembers the first time she smelled blood. Kit never had the chance to exact her revenge however, for the wolf disappeared and never came back.
In fact, nearly everyone disappeared and never came back. The pack she was born in fell apart just months after her birth. Her parents stuck together, but it wasn't long before her mother disappeared too. Kit couldn't accept it at first— she was very close to her mother and clung to her like burs on fur. But Kit eventually moved on. Her father raised her and her siblings from there and things were well, even with Siberia being gone. It was hard for Aero to hunt on his own without anyone to watch the pups, but they managed to get by.
However, things changed when Kit and her siblings were 7 months old. Aero brought the pups down into the valley to teach them to hunt, and a terrible storm arrived and flooded the valley. Mara, Hershey, and Twix all drowned, leaving just Kit, Skits, and Cas. Aero was devastated to have lost half of his children at once, but he was grateful that the other half lived.
Nothing else terrible happened after that. Kit, Skits, and Cas spend the rest of their youth without any more losses. Aero taught them everything they would need to know to survive, and when they were adults, the kids left him. Kit and Cas stuck together, while Skits went his own separate way.
Kit and Cas wandered together for a year. They had stumbled upon a pack and Cas wanted to join. Kit joined with him, though she had several issues in the pack and would get into fights often. Usually, they weren't that bad, just a couple of snaps here and there, but nothing too serious. But one day, one wolf, a wolf who had been picking on her for months, pushed her too far. Kit snapped. She mauled this wolf, and would have killed him too, if it weren't for Cas stepping in.
Kit was too riled up to stop, so she attacked Cas. The two siblings fought violently, until Kit's jaws clamped around Cas's neck and he hung limp between her teeth. She dropped the body, and took a step back, her breathing slowing down and the fog in her mind dissipating. Her legs began shaking when she realized what happened, who she had just killed. She looked over to the side, two of the pack's warriors stood not too far from her. The wolf she mauled was panting.
"She's the one," he struggled to say before collapsing in the dirt. The warriors charged for her. Kit lunged toward them and fought back, but the fight was lost before it even begun. Though Kit was strong, she couldn't beat two big, strong wolves alone. She managed to wound them, but she wasn't without her own injuries. She had no choice but to escape, so she ran. She ran as far as she could despite her exhaustion and her wounded leg.
Now a packless rogue, with not even Cas at her side, Kit wandered. She raided territories for food, she killed and ate anything she could get her claws on, and she fought often. She fought wolves, bears, cougars, anything that would challenge her. And she killed them. She killed many more wolves after that. She bore many battle scars, symbols of her victories, and she kept wandering.
