TIKAL
Gender; Female
Species; Wolf
Age; Two years
Sexual Orientation; Aromantic asexual
Original Design by; Me
Personality;
Tikal is kind and caring to almost every wolf. While she can sometimes be intimidated by bigger wolves, she tries to not let it show and treats them respectfully. She tries hard not to judge another wolf, but at times she simply cannot help it. She tries not to let her judgement affect the way she treats another wolf, and as such she is usually eager to meet someone new and learn about them.
Being very open about her opinions, sometimes Tikal doesn't realize if she has offended someone. She is quick to apologize if she does, unless she feels strongly about it. If someone challenges her beliefs Tikal can quickly become angered, but she tries to hide her anger even though she is terrible at it. Seeing Tikal frustrated can be a rather amusing sight, for defending herself and containing her emotions at the same time is very difficult for her.
Tikal hates to be ignored, and she will even raise her voice to get another's attention. In addition, Tikal will also become frustrated if she feels useless or even if she feels she has been abandoned. In attempts to prove herself, she has very often bitten off more than she can chew. Being ignored in the past has made Tikal eager to prove she is useful, and as such she does not take criticism well at all. In that sense, she can very well be considered unreasonable, whereas she has stated in the past that she dislikes unreasonable wolves.
Tikal could care less about talking about herself, she much prefers listening to others. As a pup she loved hearing stories from her mother, so she enjoys hearing stories from strangers as well. Though she likes to listen, Tikal often asks many questions that may annoy an impatient wolf. That being said, she enjoys the company of a patient, well-mannered wolf with many stories to tell. Unfortunately, those wolves can often be hard to come by.
Being such a patient wolf most of the time, Tikal enjoys being around pups and young wolves. She also likes responsibility, but doesn't like to feel pressured or rushed. She also finds herself easily trusting other wolves, which can prove to be either a strength or a weakness depending on the situation. Either way, she is loyal to her friends and would do almost anything for them.
Background;
Tikal was born as the only female in her litter. Her two brothers soon proved to be much bigger and stronger than she was. She was often teased for being smaller, which in turn made her feel useless. Tikal then began to try and prove herself, helping out with any small task an older wolf would trust her with, which wasn't much at such a young age. While her brothers wrestled and played, Tikal spent much time with her mother, asking to hear stories of her days before she joined the pack, or stories of how she met her father. Soon Tikal's mother would run out of stories to tell, and Tikal went on asking the elders for their interesting tales.
As time went on and Tikal grew older, she still found that she was not as capable and useful as her brothers. This angered her, and without thinking she made an attempt to prove that she would be useful to the pack. She waited for her chance, and then wandered away from the pack toward an elk herd. Once finding a young elk slightly separated from the pack, she attempted to take it down, which only resulted in a nasty kick from its hind leg. Tikal was very lucky to escape without a serious injury, but her failure confirmed her worst fear; she was useless to her pack. Tikal was always the one to hide her emotions, and never let anything bother her. And although she had cried before, small tears that quickly faded away, this was the first time that Tikal had wept. It wasn't until a fellow pack member had heard her that she finally returned to the pack, tear stains running down her beautiful white fur.
Tikal doubted herself after that day, but it was her mother that assured her that she didn't have to be a good hunter to be useful. Tikal wasn't so sure, but she agreed she wouldn't jump to doing anything reckless ever again. As Tikal grew older, she found herself acting as an excellent peacekeeper, and her two reckless brothers were great to practice with. She could be very persuasive, and even found herself able to get the most rambunctious pups to settle down for their naps, if she would hum a little tune to them.
Likes; Snow, pups and young wolves, patience and understanding, humming to herself when alone, being near trusted wolves
Dislikes; Rash thinking, fighting, unreasonable wolves, being teased or made fun of, feeling useless or unimportant
Strengths; Persuasive talker, kind and caring, likable to many
Weaknesses; Naive, easily trusting, has a tendency to bite off more than she can chew, young pups and innocence
