Its find you don't have to change my OOC name. I go by Abira :).
Name: Abira
Age: 3 years
Sex: Female
Family: Vadakel (father): Vadakel was a respectable wolf who sometimes boasted a quick temper. He considered his role in life was to work and not play. Like some 50s parents his motto was that ‘children should be heard and not seen’. Although Abira liked her father she looked up to him with a sense of awe and appreciation more than a friend or confidant.
Burona (Mother): Burona was the softer sweeter side of Vadakel. Abira could only remember a two times that she lost her temper with her. Abira’s mother was more supportive of Abira’s feats and dreams. Abira would confide in her mother almost nightly. Despite their closeness Abira didn’t wish to be like her mother when she got older. She leaned more towards her fathers image when emulating a role model.
Meli (brother):Meli was his father’s son, minus any sensibility or kindness. From the moment he jumped from the womb Meli had been making Abira’s life a living hell –or at least trying to. Meli was an anomaly. He was a runt of the litter whom considered himself the top dog. Abira and Meli never got along and probably would have never gotten along even if Abira had stayed.
Covana(sister): Covana was the beautiful wolf out of the litter. Sadly, that was her only saving trait. Covana couldn’t sniff her way out of the den with her eyes open and the lights blaring. As a youngster Covana was always doted upon because her coat and eyes were a rare color. Her dainty figure did much to magnify her beauty. Her lack of brains or will to do anything was a result of the constant compliments. Surprisingly enough Abira was very close to her sister. [might come in later]
Yule (sister): Yule was the largest and oldest out of the litter and the most like Abira in many ways. She was cunning, smart and quick with her tongue. She knew how to put others in their place with the blink of an eye. Although Yule and Abira got along Yule could be cold sometimes –often without realizing it. This strained their relationship occasionally. [might come in later]
Personality: Abira is solitary in nature. Originally she would have been fine in a pack setting but sudden changes in her past has given her a sense of insecurity that she has trouble coping with. Deep down she is confused and this confusion has grown into anger. Knowing that her only key for survival is to live in a pack setting she will attempt to find comfort within another family’s walls.
She only joins a pack for the benefit that it will give her. The first, and most important benefit, is her survival. Her main concern in life is herself. Abira is a good actor and uses this in attempt to gain trust and confidence of her pack mates. Unlike other wolves that are inherently trustworthy she will fabricate trust through her actions and stories. Often times using those around her as pawns to make her self look good.
She will stop at nothing to get what she wants and what she wants is power. Abira will submit, but every choice she makes in a pack will be to benefit herself in the future. She is very intelligent and often attempts to use this intelligence to undermine her leaders. Realizing that her best bet to get where she wants is to get on the good side of the alpha. She is not likely to accept defeat and will fight until the last breath has left her lungs.
Her hard work and unrelenting determination found there way to cause her pain when a hunting accident rendered her useless for a month. Having thought that her leg was fully healed from the accident she lived her life as she once had. It wasn’t until fall came around when a slight throbbing pain emitted from the spot of her injury. From there on whenever the weather became less than satisfactory she felt the reminder of her past mistakes. This has never managed to waver on her determination.
Appearance: Abira is compact and nothing physical about her body stands out. Her fur is one shade of silvery white and does nothing to add to her ordinary appearance. In fact, its length does less by giving her the illusion of having short legs. Although Abira’s height isn’t spectacular she does well with what she has. If put up to the test she could keep up with even the fastest of wolves. However, speed is not her greatest achievement. Abira’s compacted body gives her a lot of strength. Often referred to as ‘The Mule’ by her old pack mates she can put her strength up to the test for long periods of time.
Her height can at times become troublesome. Oftentimes she gets the brunt of downward glance from wolves who feel that since they are taller than her they too are better than her. This has caused a sense of low self-esteem which is part of the root of her solitary nature.
When the weather becomes colder she can feel some pain in her hind left leg from a past injury. The pain is so slight and she has become so used to it that it is barely noticable. Only during the coldest and dampest of days can some hesitation be seen with each step she takes.
History: Abira grew up in the wilds of Alaska in the same pack that she was born in. As a result she knew little of what happened in the world outside her family and had become accustomed to the routine of her own families life. The pack that she grew up in was a decent sized one. The size moved up and down in the course of a year but it’s average was ten wolves. This never made life hard.
When Abira was two years old her appearance to the pack had started to change from a young puppy to a full-fledged adult. Her actions were now monitored more closely and, as far as Abira knew, were smiled upon by her elders. A few deaths had successfully helped her pave her way to become the female beta of the pack. When she was about two and a half years old she was invited on a hunt for the purpose of her own evaluation. This, of course, was not her first hunt but would soon become her most important. This hunt would show the alpha whether or not she was worthy to join him at the top. Abira was already very proud of her own achievements thus far, but her giddiness about this opportunity could not be hidden.
The day of the hunt will haunt Abira until the day she dies. Her mind had been set solely on the task at hand that she had not noticed anything else happening in her environment. She blames it now on tunnel vision – only seeing and hearing what’s straight ahead of you in the time of excitement – but she was abducted by a team of environmental scientists. The beating of their helicopter had paralleled the beating of her excited heart.
Abira was part of a wolf population rebuilding effort. Her, and a series of other wolves from different places and different families, were dropped strategically in refuge areas in hopes of building up the wolf population. Of course she knows nothing of this. All she knows is that she is in a now unfamiliar land and her plans for success have been ruined.
Roleplay Example:

I've been here for far too long
Abira followed the pack’s scent. Her ears swayed from side to side. Her eyes darted left and right, silently memorizing each rock, twig and tree of the landscape. So this was Disconsolate Dominion. Not bad, thought Abira. The pack’s smell was much stronger in this particular area and she came to the conclusion that this was the usual hang out for many of the members. She decided to wait here and see if any other wolves came up to her. Based on the strong smell of the pack in this area her chances of running into any of the members seemed pretty strong to her.
She also sought to find a nice place to go so that she could finally get the rest she so dearly desired. Her limbs suddenly seemed weaker and it felt like she was swaying from side to side. She gazed dreamily into the distance and dropped to the ground. Her drop was quick but she was in control of her body the whole time. It wasn’t long before she fell asleep. Her breathing became long and deep. Her heart rate slowed. It wasn’t long before her dreams started to take over.
Her legs didn’t feel heavy anymore. Her eyes were no longer droopy. The sun beat down on her white fur and warmed her. Her loneliness no longer ached at her heart. In fact, she didn’t feel lonely at all. Running along side her in unison was her family, her old pack. They all stared at her with loving and respecting eyes and she smiled back. The field that they were running through Abira had never seen before –but it felt so familiar. It felt like the land was a entity that she couldn’t help but feel close to. Her woes disappeared with her midday run with her family.
If Abira was in control of her dreams or her life she would have woken up at that point. She would have left her memory of that dream to the wonderful feeling that it gave her. Feel like she wasn’t alone anymore. Sadly, one isn’t in control of those kinds of things. The happiness drained from her as fast as it filled her. The landscaped changed. It became dark, dreary. Thundering clouds churned in the sky and leafless trees screamed in agony, run! They cried mercilessly at her, their screams of forewarning muffled in her ears until they sounded like a distant ringing. Abira turned to run and found herself alone. Her feet were glued to the ground and each step was harder than the previous.
The dream ended as Abira shook awake. Her head shot up and her breathing was heavy and labored. It took her a moment to calm down. It felt like only a few minutes but she had been down and out for a few hours.
I wasn't meant to be alone
