Siblings: Oz (brother), Priest (Sister)
Appearance:
Marionette is a red wolf in breed and adhears to the usual slim, small stature. His legs are long and lanky but he seems to walk as if something is constantley pulling him along though obviously nothing is. His fur is a rich red hue that travels all the way along his body to the very tip of his thin tail. The tail itself might be long but it is not as bushy as a grey or arctic wolf, instead a fair amount of the fur lies flat, except underneathe where it hangs more. Around his muzzle, the fur it white and turns to black around his velvetine nose. There is a patch of white on the front of his chest as well as a small ridge of fur. the light colouring here rusn under his belly as well as down the insides of both of his rear legs though it does not run along the underside of his tail. His paws are small and defined, quiet on the ground as he moves. He carries himself as though he is never in a position of power. Never does he raise his head or tail and never does he try and puff himself up. He is always subtle in his movements and can stand as still as a stone for as long as he likes and quite often, he does like to do this. His fangs are long and sharp, having seen much use in his years and he often bites his own jowels, usually when eating or speaking. His eyes are a soft brown colour with flecks of a much darker black/brown near his pupils. His eyes are long and you can see the whites around the iris almost all of the time.
Personality:
Marionette is a follower and always has been. He does whatever he is asked, without question, if it is issued by a high ranking individual. Anyone of the same rank or lower, however, can go stuff themselves as far as he is concerned. Infact, Marionette takes great glee in ignoring others completley or answering their questions or requests with his own questions and requests. He likes to bend things round to his advantage but, he he finds himself being reprimanded by someone above him in the hierachy, he will get extremley guilty, even to the point of punishing himself physically depending on occasion. He beleives everyone has a purpose in life and everything is already laid out ahead of every wolf. He can get crazily superstitious and if people start talking about demons and ghosts and such he can be sentinto complete fear and shock. This is usually not a very good thing because such a perverse reaction to simple words can elad to him panicking so much he runs away. Blindly and usually into something like a tree or river. He will, however, brave such things if asked it of him by someone he either respects greatly or is his in-command wolf (or who he is currentley viewing as his in-command wolf as there is always or usually someone.)
History:
Marionette was beaten into submission by his supiriors form the moment he was born. He was born to two subordinates in his pack that had not asked the permission of the Alpha's to breed. Thankfully, the pack frowned upon killing pups due to the fault of the parents. The punishment, however, in some ways could ahve been seen as worse. Bth parents were demoted to the lowly Omega rank and the pups were considered even lower then this. If the three that survived put even a whisker out of line, they were physically beaten and, in some cases, verbally abused. The words didn't worry Marionette too much, it was mostly the violence that cuased him the most distress. By the time he was a year old, he'd already suffered from a broken leg (which has healed full, thankfully) simply for speaking out of turn as well as multiple bruises when the Alphas saw him as being out of line.
This kinda of upbringing bit into his personality and he grew up a quiet individual, only listening to the etaching of his parents and eventually ignoring all other stories and lores. He'd only listen to commands form the other wolves and would never converse with them, not even to ask for something. He'd always do it himself and this gave him an independant, if subserviant nature.
Eventually, the lowly pups, or two year old adults as they now were, were cast out form the pack. At least the beatings stopped, Marionette reasoned with his siblings. His older brother, Oz, left Marionette and his sister, priest, alone in the wilderness, having immediatley decided he didn't need them. The remaining pair never saw Oz again, nor heard about where he ended up after he left them together on that cold night. Marionette and Priest wandered for a long time, straying form place to place without finding anywhere permenant to stay.
Eventually, the siblings found a pack. This apck let them stay for a good indefinatley and they were sweet in nature. Priest found love in that pack, and Marionette felt good for her. He eventually left there as well, not feeling at home, and never uttered a word of it to his sister. As far as he knew, he'd be an uncle but would never know his neices and nephews.
And Marionette continues to wander, into the lands of Soul of the Wild.
Well.. I'm desperate to post him and I got Emily to see if she'd accept it and she said yes so I'm gonna be really bad and move it to accepted *guilt*
