In Character

Name: Dagger/Siren Afanasiy

Fur Color: Black with tints of mahogany
Species: Timber wolf
Alignment: Neutral

Power: Omen of Death; Gift of Illusions; Shape-Shifting

Power Description:

Dagger has the capability to see and/or communicate with spirits. Dagger can sense spirits, and has other abilities focused with other worlds. She sometimes has to control outrageous spirits that can escape onto the lands from another plane, which she may speak of as a warning to those who join her packlands, being that the spirits are naturally attracted to her ability, which is unnatural for a Neutral wolf. Maybe these are the secrets that her strange eyes hide--the secrets of a past forgotten and the paranormal life beyond.
The Illusions power she holds is simple enough; the ability to create images that aren't really there. Dagger uses this to mask things, or even camouflage herself; making her a master in stealth. Dagger uses this ability freely but wisely.
Dagger's shape-shifting is a most useful tool. She is able to change her shape with skill, into a variety of animals. Her favorite in particular is a bird.

Personality:

Dagger's persona is deserving of her nickname. She is somewhat cold and unfeeling at first glance, and her words are often unintentionally sharp. Her neutral persona might label her as somewhat of a mystery, or it might also make her a prime alpha for the Neutral lands of Jyxali. Dagger tends to be a little bit strict with things sometimes, perhaps this is a result of her naturally untrusting personality.

Dagger analyzes situations and takes action to the best of her judgment. Dagger has earned respect from her peers by her leaderlike mindset and neutrality in dire situations. Although, her positions and actions may not make her seem the most compassionate or welcoming figure, it keeps her position as Alpha in check. She does not show her soft or weak side much; only the ones she has complete trust in can witness it. Dagger can be kind or joking, but mostly tends to keep to herself. Dagger also has a very unique and pretty accent that might be French--or Russian--or something indescribable.



Appearance:

Dagger's body is fit for agility and stealth. The black female has long legs and body; she is quite tall and lithe in figure. Dagger is quick and strong, but rather favors speed. Dagger's body has surprising catlike tendons and balance, giving her excellent stealth and physicality that are probably greatest strengths overall. She may be pronounced perfect, but this is untrue. Whilst her body is fond for endurance, she is not the strongest wolf. Rather, she tries to make up for it with a strategic mindset and quick body.

As for her pelt, a mix of onyx and ebony blacks with a mahogany tint makes up most of her fur. The texture of her fur is feathery and about medium in length, and her tail is long as well, which benefits her balance most. Her eyes, though, white as the moon and sharp as her name, contrast deeply. Dagger's eyes might be the biggest defining feature, and they can be wonderfully expressive of her emotions. Besides her regular wolf body, Dagger has a set of very long, elegant translucent-looking wings that appear to be ghosts themselves. They are around the same color as her fur, dark, but maybe just a shade lighter.



History:

Dagger was born to Scera, a mother who was nearly as neutral as her. Dagger's birth name was Siren, and her brother's Bloodwind. In fact, her nickname came from him, when Scera called her sharp as a blade. At first, the name was Daggermouth and Blood used it to tease her, but as they grew and matured, Dagger became a regular name used by everyone she knew, and so she adopted it as a full-time alias.

Life in her pack was constant war and battle with other wolves, so she had to learn to adapt in the feuding environment, which was the start of her composed and quick-thinking nature that was partly adopted from her wise mother. Times were tough, but she and her brother adjusted quickly. Their mother was constant protection and wisdom for the two youths, until they grew old enough to fend for themselves. Bloodwind and Dagger were a sort of team growing up, and they were hardly ever seperated.

With Dagger's age came change, and with change, her relationship with her brother becan to loosen. They both went different ways with different skills and interests. Their mother's care for the both of them was forgotten with another litter of pups. Bloodwind became a hunter for the pack, and Dagger took to subordination, scouting, hunting, pupsitting, among other things. Dagger, although, had a curious and free nature that called her to leave the pack.

Siren, her name that was nearly forgotten now, stumbled upon the lands that would become her domain at the ripe age of two and a half. She was young, strong, and had many advantages that other females her age did not. This is what led her to claim the unclaimed lands. Dagger has been Alpha on her packlands--the Neutral lands, or Jyxali as we call it--long enough to know every nook, cranny, creature and threat it has to offer.
