Rabbit

Rabbit was a member of New Caledonia, ranked as a Peer.
He was born on New Caledonia's territory and raised there by absentee parents who abandoned him soon after his first shift. Rabbit learned to fend for himself early on, the hound-dog in him making him an excellent tracker. One day he awoke to strangers living in the lands that had lain mostly vacant for so long. After attempting to steal from the King Iomair, Rabbit was chased off by the City Watch to fend for himself -- but after surviving a lonely winter, he decided that perhaps his life would be easier if he joined the pack.
Rabbit is a good-hearted boy beneath his dour mood, if bashful about his namesake: his overly-large ears. He had a knack for horses and contributes to the pack through various menial tasks and labor. He was often found in the Rhovanion, or tracking game in the woods.
In January 2022, during the A Tear in the Tapestry Plot, Rabbit sacrificed himself during a catapult attack in order to save the love of his life, Pippa Resnor.

Overview |
Rabbit's defining features are his long hound ears. He has bi-colored eyes -- one blue and one brown. He has heavy jowls that flap when he runs and make his smile particularly endearing. His hair is a messy mop of brindled fur that sometimes hangs into his eyes.

Personality |
Traits |
Rabbit can be a tough nut to crack. He is mistrusting of those who show kindness to him and is afraid of being abandoned by those he lets in close. New Caledonia has offered him a fresh start and he is eager to prove himself while battling insecurities that often make him second guess his work. The way to the hound's heart is often through food or mutual interests -- and Rabbit shows his true colors when speaking about the animals in the Realm. He has an affinity for the animals in the Rhovanion, and takes great pride in knowing each of the animals' personalities and names. |
