Essentials

• Species: Creek is unquestionably coyote. While he is not a purebred due to hybridization in his family tree, he is unaware of this fact and his appearance owns the prime example of a coyote individual.
• Fur: Short and coarse, oftentimes unkempt due to his lack of attention for presentation. It is thick and capable of growing a suitable winter coat, though the shedding is horrendous in the spring.
  • Optime Hair: Unstylized; his mane extends down his neck and back, simply giving his scruff more fluff and plush than in his other forms. Often it spikes up.
• Facial Features: Large coyote ears frame a narrow face that holds sharp features. His eyes are striking blue.
• Build and Size: Owning to the nature of coyotes, Creek lacks any sort of bulk that wolves have. He is long-legged and narrow-shouldered, compact and well-portioned for his species. Despite his lack of muscle, his body is sturdy and hardened from survival in the wilds. His Optime form follows the same formula and he can be described as "elfish."
• Humanization: Very low—does not adorn himself with clothing or accessories, feeling that they are restrictive, and opts out of using any kind of tool. His posture is distinctly feral and hunched in Optime form.

Interaction

• Speech: Deep and masculine with the lack of a distinctive accent. Mild-mannered and lax, not likely to make loud expressions.
• Scent: Ash, smoke, wet earth, concrete, dust.
• Quirks, Gestures, Etc.: Expressive, fidgety ears and tail.
• General Posture and Body Language: Creek is very receptive of others and bases his body language to reflect the mood; he always seems alert and somewhat flighty even when he is relaxed. He resorts on feral postures to communicate with others at times, such as tucking his tail and lowering himself in submission when faced with an aggressive individual he cannot challenge. Generally he holds himself with quiet confidence in neutral situations.

Summary

Upon first impression, Creek is a simple male. If they are able to get beyond his skittishness (he distrusts unfamiliars and will run at the first sign of trouble), one would find that he is straightforward and mild-mannered unless he has reason to be wary. He has no desire to cause disturbances in others and will try to find cooperation within others rather than conflict; although undoubtedly feral he is reasonable, civil, and pragmatic. Despite his caution Creek finds enjoyment in social interactions—but can handle them awkwardly from lack of experience with others.

In the stereotypical coyote fashion, Creek is opportunistic. He is willing to scavenge for food, bow to enemies, lower himself—all in the name of survival. He is willing to abandon others if it came down between his life or their's and would not needlessly risk his well-being.

That being said, he isn't heartless—if he's able to help others without any threat to his health, he will. He sees survival as the ultimate goal for all canines and would not fault others for doing the same to him.
