Personality description:
Garret is loyal... If you had to put it down to one word. Running from an old life that haunts himto this day. Garret clings to any srcap of human interaction he can maintain for more than a month. Becoming fiercly loyal and protective of it.
Garret is strong, having dominant status from the age of 22. He was to take over running the pack from his father until a pack war shattered those dreams. Garret was 23 when it happened. He had a girlfirend and daughter all of his own. When this was all ripped away from him. Garret started to keep on the move, trying to forget the life he use to have.
At the moment, this nomadic mentality is slowly fading as Garret has a job at the Horseman. Slowly, but surely. Garret's starting to get the confidence that he use to have wen he was in the pack. And maybe soon, he'll go looking a pack to join.

History:
Garret O'Riley is a 26 year old werewolf that was born and raised in Wisconsin and is of Irish decent. He stands about 6'5, Blonde and has the body shape that is of a man who cares about his physique but not with a "Im-to-good' attitude. He usually is seen in clothes that are respectable but still flexible for movement and shifting. His father was the Ulric of a pack thats territories covered most of Wisconsin.
Garret was born into pack life, His mother and Father wanted a child. But due to the restrictions that the Lycanthropic virus, the Ulfric made arrangements for a surrigate mother to bare their child. When Garret was born he and he was ready to be take home. He was taken back to the pack. It was age 18 that Garret became apart of the pack in the true sence of the word, on a full moon his father infected him. His first shift was surrounded by the rest of the pack, welcoming him in. He was trained by his father to be strong and fast, His mother taught him how to control his shifts. This was all to teach Garret how to be the best Wolf he could be to protect his pack and himself.. At the age of 22 Garret was considered a dominant of the younger wolves in the pack. His strong will made Garret hard to hold back when he was determinded to do something, . Garret was on of the strongest wolves in the pack. He and his group of firends would regularly play dominance games. Garret established himself as one of the dominant younger wolves. But never challenge the older woves. Garret loved learning how to control his shifts. He favoured his hybrid form over his animal form. In hybrid form the wolf stood 9ft from head to toe.
When Garret was 23 there was a civil war which resulted in the loss of a all most all of the Pack, only he and his friend Gregory survived. As a result, Garret was marked as a outcast in Wisconsin, however this is not the case. He has been going from state to state, trying to find a place to call his own.
Garret was trained to fight formally, whether it be with swords or with his hands. Garret had become quite compitant with his fighting skills. How ever if Garret is in the heat of a fight, he usually drops formal training and fight with the primal anger most lycans are capable of.
Garret is not a person who suffers fools gladly. Stupidity is something that he severly dislikes and will usually tell the person to leave. Although he does seem hard at times. Garret is actaully quite likeable and loyal. He takes anything he is given with gratitude and humilty. He is always thankfull for any kind of acceptance and will do as much as he can to keep that acceptance.
Writing Sample:
Garret ran through the forest in his hybrid form. It was a new city and he'd been on a plane for nearly 3and a half hours on a plane. He needed to get use to the terrain of this new place if he was going to live here. And living here brought new considerations. Where was he going to live, who was he going to talk to about getting into the local wolf pack. What was he going to do for the time being? And whay the hell did he get himself into this in the first place.
Garret jumped up as tree, climbing to top as to city below him. Get an idea of his new home. The answer to his why question was answered almost immediatly, this city was beautiful... And that fresh sea air was heavenly. Garret looked at the city. The city lights were something to be admired. He listened to the bustling traffic and soft sound of the crashing waves faintly beyond. "mmm, I can see why i wanted to come here again." He thoguht to himself.
Garret jumped down and continued running. The next question to answer was who was he going to ask about getting into the local wolf pack. Garret stoped when he found a small clearing with a reasonably sized watering hole in the center. He walked over quietly and began to drink from the slightly salty water. He sat down, leaving his paws still in the water as he looked up at the stary sky. In the morning he'd ask around. Even if it ment he'd have to go to the Master of the Vampires to find out.
And the rest:
Anything else? Not yet, but watch this space.

DENIED
We had this conversation all ready. Not to mention that it would be very interesting to know how he killed his own father at 17 having little to no experience.

Ok firstly. He didn't kill his father. I don't know where your getting that from. he Gained alpha because he was trained by his father and the other alphas of the pack to be strong because of whos son he was. His father was killed by leopards. And i forgot to edit out the born wolf part from the other forum, that was an honoust mistake and not me say "I dont care what jason and i talked about im going to do it anyway." . So don't denie him straight out please.

Okay it is easier to put this all in here as a post than over msn, as you can reference back to it. The app. is better, but there are some things that I want you to look over again. Some of them are purely for readability, but it is something we value on the board and so it would be appreciated.
- Your sentences are very short, exhibit poor grammar at times and in some cases (mainly your sample post) you repeat yourself and in so doing loose the coherence of what you are trying to say. This makes it hard for people to both read and post back to, as they could misunderstand something due to an error. I would like to see the app. have more flow and readability. It is the chance to let the world know the workings of your character, to get the inside view to decide if he is somebody they want to know, make the best of it.
- Whilst I like that you have produced a valid reason for him to be raised with an Ulfric and Lupa as his parents, I do doubt that he would be infected purely because his parents wanted another wolf to train when they could of taken one of the pre-existing dominants of the Pack rather than make their son endure that. Whist it is not impossible it is more of a way to keep within the 'norm' for the board (similar to our request that you reduce Issac to a more fitting age).
- I would like a total rewrite of your writing sample. It does not fit geographically and is hard to follow coherently without having to think about what you were trying to say.
Let me know when you have taken care of these points as well as you know, and I will re-read it. Until then I am sorry but if I keep helping you with the character then he shall cease to be yours and be more of mine.
