Tris

[Kit]

Character Number: 5

Name: Tris

Age: 2 years (14 wolf years)

Gender: male

Species: Natural Wolf

Breed: gray wolf

Personality: Tris has grown very calm since his accident. He was once a very feisty young creature, eager for adventure and desperate for a challenge, but now he has calmed down considerably. He still has a strong curiosity and an equally strong sense of justice. One thing that takes away from his now peaceful nature is his distrust and total dislike for human kind. In the presence of a human, he becomes distant, more aggressive, and more distrusting.

Appearance: Tris is a young male with simple gravel colored fur. His chest and under tail are a soft cream/off white color. His body is relatively unscathed, due to his young age and now peaceful nature. His lower jaw matches his chest and his eyes are a very pale light blue.

History: Tris was born into a litter of two. He had a younger sister named Ki. The two of them did everything together, and loved to venture out to explore despite their worried mother's protests. One day the duo came upon something they had never seen before.... a campfire. Ki wanted to go home, but Tris was more daring and eager to check out this new thing. The young pups went to investigate the strange flames, only to come across their master - a hunter. The human attacked the two young wolves, who in turn bit and clawed furiously in an attempt to save their own lives...but two pups against a hunter was no challenge. Tris watched as the hunter grabbed a strange shining tube from beside a sideways log and bash his sister in the head with the triangular bottom of the tube. Tris saw the blood pour from his sister's head and saw the light leave her eyes. He was about to suffer the same fate when his mother came to the rescue. She urged Tris to the woods, where at first he did as he was told, but he couldn't leave his mother behind. He returned to the fight, jumping to attack the hunter with his mother only to be thrown down into the fire. The embers bit into his fur, and scratched at his eyes. His yelps tore into the night as his mother grabbed him from the flames and raced into the woods. Once a safe distance from the human monster, his mother collapsed on the ground. "Mom? Mother? " came the small cry of the young pup as he stuffed his nose into his mother's warm scent. "I didn't .... Ki, she's...." He cried. "There there Tris. You must be strong." cooed his mom as she gave him a lick. The pup stayed with his mother that night, curled up close to her sticky wet side. When he awoke, his mother was cold and he laid in a puddle of her blood. He did not see his mother's bullet wound.....he did not see at all. The embers from the fire permanently injured him..... Tris was blind.
Ever since that terrible day, Tris has lost his sense of adventure and no longer seeks a challenge... how can he with no sight? he has heard rumors of paradise, and wonders if his mother and sister are there waiting for him.... but he knows not how to get there.
