1.  Appearance

Though Wy'Lamina is a mutt, her strongest traits are those of a timber wolf and red Siberian husky. Her fur is a light reddish hue with a cream underbelly; it is very thick, with a wiry outer coat and plush undercoat suitable for frigid temperatures. She has brown eyes, pink nose and pawpads, and light gray claws.

In her Lupus form, she is of an average height for a wolf, standing at 26 inches at the shoulder. However, Ly'Wamina spends the majority of her time in her larger Secui form, preferring its strength and speed over her other two forms.

When she does take her Optime form, her stance tends to be crouched and feral. She wears no clothing nor adornments.

2.  Personality

Ly'Wamina has a desperate need to be recognized and accepted by her superiors; she is approval-seeking and demands a lot of attention. She is insecure and carries many self-doubts close to her heart. It frightens her to recognize her own shortcomings, and therefore she does her best to push them out of her mind and instead seeks reassurance from outside sources.

However, Ly'Wamina is most terrified of others seeing her as weak, and therefore puts up a front to hide her true feelings. Most of the time, she acts very vain, bold, and self-confident-- but it is only an act. She will pretend not to put any effort into her actions, but will secretly work very hard to make her accomplishments apparent so that others might take note of it and compliment her.

Unfortunately, the combination of her true feelings and the act she puts on makes for volatile moods. Ly'Wamina is easily frustrated, and in fact her temper seems to constantly be boiling just under the surface. She easily snaps at others (both figuratively and literally) when she feels that she is not being treated fairly. For that reason, she can be difficult to get along with.

3.  History

Ly'Wamina was born in a pack in the north. Her parents were the alphas of the pack, but she was the least-recognized pup out of her siblings. Her prowess in hunting came late, as did her shapeshifting abilities. As a result, Ly'Wamina found herself constantly trying and failing to keep up with her siblings and parents' expectations. Despite her best efforts, Ly'Wamina always found herself second-best and under-appreciated, which fueled her frustrations and her rage.

When she was about a year old, Ly'Wamina decided that she'd had enough of being the disappointment in the pack, and dispersed. Striking out on her own was terrifying, but she built up a false bravado; her pride prevented her from returning home, and so her only option was to continue forward.

She grew well enough on her own; her hunger forced her to improve her hunting skills, and experience was a better teacher than her pack had been. While Ly'Wamina is still a reluctant shapeshifter, she is able to recognize the usefulness of each of her three forms and knows how to utilize them in a pinch.

4.  Relations

Ly'Wamina's old pack-- consisting of her parents, two elder siblings, and three littermates-- are still alive, but she has left them behind.
