Alaric Ivanov was born in Casa di Cavalieri to parents Veri Secanti and Rurik Ivanov. He was born alongside a stillborn sister, given the name Naema so she would not be a nameless grave.

PLOT OPPORTUNITY!

OOC ASSUMPTIONS!

  • Family stuff always welcome!

Casa di Cavalieri members may assume and reference the following without discussion/asking:

  • Helping around the Wolfe-Denahlii camp, hanging out with his milk-siblings, carrying out various chores, splayed out on his belly in front of a fire, any fire, with his sketch book of parchment paper and colors, sketching any multitude of things that might have caught his eye throughout the day.

1.  Appearance

1.1  Basics

Essentials

  • Species: Alaric is mostly wolf, with an infinitesimal amount of dog and maybe coyote in his blood from his mother, but his scent and build declares him as a wolf.
  • Fur: Alaric's fur is soft and thick, almost plush, which thins out in the peak of summer for a smoother coat that allows him to stay cool.
    • Optime Hair: Alaric's Optime hair he keeps short, and it curls in handsome waves around his head.
  • Facial Features: Alaric's face is all wolf, though his snout is just ever so slightly narrower than average due to his mother's more dainty Indian wolf heritage
  • Build and Size: Alaric is lean and tall just like his father, and also in part to his training under Honrin when apprenticed to him.
    • Lupus: Alaric is fast, nimble, about average size for a wolf his age in this form.
    • Secui: Alaric doesn't change all that drastically, only gains some inches and some bulk in this form.
    • Optime: Alaric is tall, leanly strong and handsomely attractive, prefers this form for the use of his hands for his colors.
  • Humanization: Alaric's humanization is about as deep as it can get for a wolf, without fully losing his roots. When extremely excited, happy, or distressed, he'll revert to more wolfish vocals or movements, but otherwise, he behaves in a humanistic manner. Except for clothes, he doesn't particularly care for those but doesn't mind them if needed for an event or gathering. Ever since the death of his father, he can be seen wearing the necklace that Rurik wore almost constantly.

Jewelry and Accessories

  • While pawing through his father's things following his death, Alaric found the old necklace Rurik had received from his own mother. Though his father hadn't worn it admittedly for a few moons, he still felt an immediate attachment to the pendant and claimed it as his own. He never goes anywhere without it now.

Clothing

  • He has a few articles here and there, even a couple full outfits, but Alaric is rather indifferent to whether he goes around in clothes or his natural fur.

Forms


140 lbs (64 kg)
27 in (69 cm)

Lupus

197 lbs (90 kg)
40 in (102 cm)

Secui

Alaric will only use this form for hunting big game, as he dislikes how aggressive it appears and doesn't want to scare any potential pups in the pack.

6ft 9in (81 in / 206 cm)

Optime (Preferred)

maybe describe how often they use the form and don't forget to change their form preference

Interaction

  • Speech: Alaric picked up some speech patterns from both his mother, father, and Mentor, Honrin, and he can slip into any of these styles as smoothly as he can shift between forms.
  • Scent: Alaric smells of Veri, her herbs, Damon, the Wolfe-Denahlii family, horses, the materials he uses to make the colors for his sketching.
  • Quirks, Gestures, Etc.: When really excited or happy, he'll either start talking and gesturing with his hands or dissolve into happy/excited wolfish whines or yips.
  • General Posture and Body Language: Alaric is open, energetic, happy to be around anyone, neutral when it comes to a dominant or submissive stance, though he's more inclined to be submissive.

Images

2.  Personality

Suggestions would be hyper-active, eager to please, bouncy and full of energy, friendly to everyone and very willing to learn and be his best. Recently his father died, so he will more than likely have a damper on his usual self.

2.1  Ideals

Traits

Happy go-lucky, eager to please, stubborn

  • Outlook: Optimistic mostly, though he might have his down moments
  • Sociability: Extroverted, he's happy to be social with anyone willing to put up with his hyper, bouncy self
  • Expression: Mostly submissive?
  • Alignment: Alignment?

Motivations

  • Make everyone happy
  • Do his hardest

Fears

  • Death: Losing his father made him realize fear of losing his family to something he can't fight or defend from.

Biases

  • Packs: Alaric's only experience with other packs were at a Leadership Summit hosted by his home, but he didn't see much difference between all of them and Casa; they each had their own family to love and protect.
  • Species: Alaric hasn't really been exposed to other species of canine, so he doesn't have any thoughts on them. His brother Rumpa and sister Mercy smell a bit different, sure, but he doesn't really care; they're family, as is the rest of his pack.
  • Non-Luperci: He's never met a non-Luperci, so probably wouldn't understand that there's someone who can't shift and gain hands.
  • Gender: Alaric has grown up surrounded by various different types of men and women. It was impressed upon him that both were the same, with similar strengths and weaknesses, and both should be treated equally with respect.
  • Color: Everyone is pretty or handsome!
  • Sexuality: Alaric's brother is openly gay, and his parents were heterosexual, so he's well aware of what his options can be. Honestly, though, he doesn't really care, either way, he's just glad they're happy!
  • Age: Older wolves are awesome and wise, and pups are adorable potatoes that he wants to protect.

Sexuality

Alaric hasn't really felt a crush attraction to anyone in the pack just yet, and he's fine with that, but he knows he doesn't care whether it's male or female. To use a human term, Alaric would more than likely be pansexual, loving the personality of someone rather than what might be attached to them. He also might be willing to love more than one individual equally as a polyamorous partnership. When he does find that one (or two), he will more than likely fall head over heels for them.

Interests

  • Likes: Mostly up for player descretion, but he has been ICly introduced to art by his mentor and enjoys it immensely
  • Dislikes: A list of single or few-worded dislikes

Substances

He's had some sips of wine and spirits but he doesn't particularly care for it. He hasn't been exposed to anything else as of yet.

Spirituality

Alaric believes in the Knight family deity of Fenris, whom most of Casa di Cavalieri follow or give thanks to. With the death of his father, he clings to the knowledge, the hope, that his father is up in the sky and free of pain or sorrow, looking down on them in happiness. He also believes in the arctic Aurora Borealis that Jace follows, though he doesn't know very much about it, just that it's another way for wolves to go to the sky.

3.  Relationships

3.2  Relations

Key Relations

  • Veri Secanti This is Alaric's mom. He loves her to the moon and back, he would do anything for her. She's been his rock, his cheerleader, his comforting embrace and his calming voice. She's his best friend and the single light in the darkness after the death of his father, and he loves her with a renewed vigor, fearful of losing her too.
  • Rurik Ivanov This is Alaric's dad. He loved him to the moon and back, and always looked up to him, proud to be an Ivanov and live up to the stories he'd heard about his father. When the news of Rurik's death came, it felt like all the warmth in the world had been snuffed out, and all he has left is the light of his mama, which he clings to with a grieving ferocity.
  • Mercy Nightshade Introduced to the female twin at an extremely young age, Alaric knows she's not his real sibling but he's known her as nothing else, so he loves her as though they are blood-related. He knows she can be moody and distant sometimes, but is secure in the knowledge that within her heart she does care, even if she doesn't like to express it.
  • Rumpa Nightshade Introduced to the male twin at an extremely young age, Alaric knows he's not his real sibling but he's known him as nothing else, so he loves him as though they are blood-related. They aren't as close as Alaric and Mercy, but he still knows the male to hold some hidden away sibling affection for him.
  • Nora Knight Although not as close milk-siblings as Nora might be to Nayavota, Alaric grew up fairly closely with the Lune's youngest litter and would most likely view them as family or very close friends.
  • Cedric Stryder Although not as close milk-siblings as Cedric might be to Nayavota, Alaric grew up fairly closely with the Lune's youngest litter and would most likely view them as family or very close friends.
  • Nayavota Denahlii Although not as close milk-siblings as Nayavota might be to the Lune's youngest, Alaric grew up fairly closely with the Denahlii girl, as well as seeing her quite regularly due to his mentor being Naya's older brother Honrin, and so would most likely view them as family or very close friends.
  • Honrin Wolfe-Denahlii Already relatively close with this male due to constantly visiting his milk-siblings, since being made the Wolfe-Denahlii's apprentice he's only grown to look up to Honrin all the more.
  • Lorenzo Knight Despite being a ghost, Alaric feels very close to his 'Sun Man' friend, having learned some fighting tactics from the colossal male alongside his Mentor's teachings, but he's was also one of the first few who could actually see Enzo, the other being Jace's youngest daughter and Alaric's extended family, Nayavota.
  • Jace Wolfe Jace is Alaric's second mother, she raised him just as much as Veri did, and he happily calls her 'Mahnama' in Svinka whenever he visits, literally meaning Second Mother in her native tongue.
