On this page... (hide)
Siskin Amarok is the son of Zyndea Amarok'Kido and Logan Cormier, born into the off-board trade community Old Ironsides alongside siblings Telorin Cormier? and Maple Parhelion?. An adventurous and bold child, it was only a matter of time before the allure of faraway places compelled him to explore the lands and cultures outside of his birthplace. Months of correspondence and planning between his parents and uncle finally culminated in Iska journeying to New Caledonia. In Percival's desire to ensure Siskin's safety during the height of The Winter of Discontent, he was relocated to a safe place just outside of New Caledonia. Feeling brave and invincible, Iska disobeyed his uncle's instructions to stay put and attempted to come to the Realm's aid during the burning of Haven. During an altercation with an Omniscient, Siskin was [M] fatally stabbed and succumbed to his injuries on the battleground. His body was later returned to Old Ironsides where he was [M] laid to rest during a water burial ceremony. |

Summary | |
Despite his coat markings, wire-haired fur, and small stature, Siskin has a build and features that harken back to his wolf heritage. His ears are fully upright and coated in thick, coarse fur that transitions to wiry and wild throughout the rest of his body. He possesses short, but scruffy, eyebrows and a modest mustache and beard at the end of a long, blunt. muzzle. Quite small for his species, it is likely that Siskin will take after his maternal grandmother's diminutive size and probably will not get much taller. Despite this, he has a frame that suggests he is likely to fill in quite well as he matures, though he looks slender and somewhat wiry at present. | |
Iska has a creeping tan color pattern hidden behind roaning and mottled markings that give him a distinctive, doggish appearance. He owes his snow nose to his paternal ancestors and his eye color is reminiscent of his late maternal grandmother.

Interaction |

Summarize: Stubborn, curious, adventurous, excitable, reckless, honest, talkative. |
An obvious explorer from an early age, Siskin rarely stays in one place or sits still for very long before he's off on his next adventure. He is deeply curious about everything, from the Luperci around him to the greater world outside, and finds particular enjoyment in learning about different customs, cultures, and religions. Immensely stubborn, once Iska resolves to do something he will see it through regardless of the obstacles in his way. Although always well-intentioned, this can cause rifts in his relationships and has gotten him into trouble a lot in his young age. |
