Appearance:
Lorelei is a distinctive looking wolf. She has a vibrant, gold coat that is tinged with a hint of red. Her legs are pure white when perfectly clean as is the bottom and sides of her muzzle, the area around her eyes, her stomach and her throat. Her sides, tail tip, and neck are a muddy gray-brown color, which fades her rich top-coat color with her pure underbelly color. Her forehead, ears, and top of her tail are brown, much darker than the rest of her fur.
She has gray eyes that have a small hint of gold to them. Her ears are slightly on the larger side and when she stands, she has a rangy look about her. She has a narrow and feminine face and long legs. Her chest is deep and her body, able to withstand long travel easily. Lorelei has a plush coat, thick and soft. She has soft features overall and even a soft, kind voice. Her movements are slightly clumsy, and she can be a klutz at times. Lorelei has a musical laugh and a lovely howl. She stands about 21 inches and weighs around fifty pounds. From nose to end, she’s fifty three inches. Overall, she seems a gentle and feminine wolf. She often carries a tote around for collecting her herbs, holding it either around her neck, with the bag on one shoulder; or in her jaws when she needs to move quickly through someplace.
Skills:
- Herb Knowledge – She understands the herbs, remedies, and even can dabble a little into human medicines, but what holds her back from going into the Epsilon rank is her nervousness under pressure and around other wolves.
- Dedicated to Her Duty – Lorelei has an impressive work ethic. She will unyieldingly find the right herbs for her patients whether the weather is nice or terrible. Her heart is always in the right place, even if her brain isn’t.
- Singing Voice – Lorelei has a sweet singing voice, perfect for lullabies for sweet little pups. She is also able to harmonize beautifully with others.
Personality:
Lorelei is a shy wolf. She doesn’t enjoy being the center of attention. She’d rather sit in the sidelines and do her own work. Her favorite aspect of her work is the herb gathering. She enjoys how quiet it is in most herb gathering areas and the seclusion marks a happy change from the bustle of the main pack areas. She does love identifying the different plants and has a keen eye for differences, probably due to the fact that she has a habit of seeing details, but missing out on the whole picture.
Something about Lore is her lack of common sense. She is clueless when it comes to relationship and usually comes across as a witless and nervous wreck toward others. She more than makes up for it by being incredibly honest—almost to the point of being unable to lie and unable to detect lies. In other words, she’s completely gullible and easily taken advantage of. She’s also very kind.
A rather stingy aspect about her is that she hates to deviate from that which makes her comfortable. Despite the fact that she’s gullible, you can’t get her to do anything that she wouldn’t normally do. She’s rather stubborn about it and may even put up a little tantrum like a puppy. Also like a puppy, Lore can only see the magic in the world despite how desolate and ravaged the world is. She was raised a very sheltered life and it shows.
History:
Lorelei is a complete mutt when it comes to her bloodline. Her mother was a Crescent Moon Wolf, her father was a Gibbous, but closer to Half since he had resulted from a breeding between Gibbous and Crescent wolf himself. In an age where it’s common to lose most of your litter, Lore represents one of the few cubs that made it in her large litter of six. Four of the cubs died, leaving only herself and her brother. They were raised lovingly. Their mother was incredibly strict—some would argue that she was a tad crazy. She kept her pups under strict rule and a watchful eye, treating them as cubs for as long as was socially acceptable. And then, she pretty much tossed them out of the den to live on their own. Both adapted marginally well and found their places in the pack.
Lorelei worked to become an Apothecary. She was a highly successful individual, but was limited in how effective she was—basically, she just wilts under pressure and would rather not have family and friends be close by when she works and would rather all the wolves be silent while she works. Usually, she works and explains everything she’s doing aloud. This was from a habit that she had to explain what she was doing to the Apothecary that she apprenticed under since sometimes she took her own path in healing—using methods she considered vastly improved over her master’s. The other packwolves know that, by skill alone, she deserves the Epsilon rank, but they are uncertain if the promotion would stress her out or not since she seems quite happy in her modest rank.
Lore has had a few wolves turn their eyes upon her over the couple years she’s been alive due to the fact that she is a beautiful wolf. However, she’s either been blind to their affections or she was clueless in how to reciprocate them and has not had a serious relationship yet. She knows that she’s slowly moving out of the prime of her life and is afraid that she will never have a family and will die alone.
