Growing up without a defined mother figure, Temnota's family swelled to include most of Casa di Cavalieri, without which, he cannot imagine life as he knows it. Almost everyone is either a Sister, Brother, Cousin or Grandparent.
Following the disastrous failure of his First Blood ceremony Temnota's self confidence has taken a crushing blow, and some of his happy-go-lucky nature has been broken.
Casa di Cavalieri members may reference seeing Character doing the following:
Derping about the Fort, chatting at anyone who will listen
'Helping' as best he can
1. Appearance
1.1 Essentials
Basics
Primarily a coal black, with a few white markings, Tem is a very plain colored man.
Without much frivolity or airs, Temnota comes across as a very simple male, he is disinclined to wear jewellery or other forms of decoration, and indeed very rarely wears any form of clothing.
In optime, his hair is long and usually messy, occasionally 'decorated' with leaves, pine needles or other natural detritus.
Temnota has yet to grow into his adult self, thus currently still has a somewhat black and white child-like view of the world. An excitable boy for the most part, Temnota is capable of extreme amounts of empathy for others, especially concerning personal pains. Raised amongst folk who value honorable actions and modesty, Temnota is unlikely to express vain ideals or call attentions to himself.
Generalized anxiety finds him eschewing the lime-light in exchange for a position amongst the backstage crew.
A shining example of those described as the backbone of their communities, Temnota will put everything he has into bettering the lives of those around himself, and considers it an honor to be permitted into such roles that might allow him to perform these duties.
Honest to the bone, Temnota has never in his life told a lie or fudged the truth, and cannot see himself ever doing so. He will never lie to better his own position, or escape a deserved punishment. Those role models that he views with utmost respect have shaped his mettle heavily, molding the clay of his personality to become a reflection of Cavalieri ideals.
Given his excitable nature, occasionally his large desire to help can end up setting him at odds with those he attempts to assist, he gets in his own way in these personal pursuits.

Weakness: Brief description of a characteristic shortcoming (e.g. bad at scouting, language barrier, zealot, frail).
Darkness Hushhowl is his father. Temnota loves and admires his namesake dearly, and in spite of Darkness' obvious flaws and faults there is nothing that his father can do that will shatter Temota's adoring view. Tem greatly wishes to live up to the legacy that his father has created, and in turn make the older man proud of him. There is nothing Temnota won't do to help his father, and carries his name onwards with great honor.
Hartt Attaya is his mother. Although never getting to meet the daring woman, Temnota has heard enough stories of her martial prowess and inner strength that he greatly wishes to emulate her, even to the point of attempting to learn to fight with sword, a weapon he is inherently unable to understand and use effectively. During times of hardship or inner pain, Temnota will whisper to the stars in hopes that she's listening and offer him comfort and courage.
Dusk, Dawn, Night and Day are his elder sisters. Their presence in his life has been almost constant. He loves them immensely and treasures the time he gets to spend with them. When Day and Dawn left to visit the Outpost, Tem's little world grew dimmer. With Dawn's return, some of his happiness has returned too.
Jace Wolfe is his бабушка. This aging woman is a veritable fountain of knowledge and wise advice as well as the foundation for Temnota's religious beliefs. She and her mate, Temo, are Temnota's stand in grandparents -- and he greatly respects their experience and expertise.
Pushok Hushhowl is his litter brother. Temnota and Pushok are as similar as chalk and cheese, but they are one and the same. With his pale brother by his side, Temnota can take on any challenge and overcome any obstacle set in his path. An antithesis to his compassionate, empathetic nature, Pushok is less in touch with his emotions and prone to ignoring the fallout of negative experiences. Yin and Yang, they reflect each halves of the whole, and without his brother, Temnota would be adrift in an ocean of sorrow.
Teagan Stryder is the daughter of the leader. For Temnota, Teagan represents everything it means to be a knight of Casa. He excessively strives to live up to her expectations, and prove himself worthy of her praise. From the time he was a young boy, he has looked at her as an older Sister, accepting her criticisms and corrections fluidly and changing himself to fit the mold set by her ideals. It breaks his heart that her chosen weapon is one he lacks competence with, and vows to himself to make up for this failing in some other way. Ultimately, she has had a great deal of effect upon his world view and hopes to one day stand at her side as a martial equal. | Her son is looked upon as a younger brother, and Temnota feels a desperate pull to watch over and teach the young boy as Teagan has done for himself.
Veri Secanti is his mentor. This gracious woman represents a great deal of personal turmoil as well as blatant idolization in Temnota's life. As of yet unknown to him, Veri was the one to free Temnota and his brother from his dying mother's body, ultimately causing Hartt's premature death. Veri's guilt from this is an obvious expression to Temnota, who has ascribed her pain to actions performed by himself and seeks vehemently to rectify this wrong he has 'committed' with gifts and unending love. One day Temnota hopes that he will fix the damaged caused and earn her complete affection.
Notable Relations
Casa Di Cavalieri. Any member of this pack is almost automatically catapulted into Temnota's good books and he will strive to assist his pack mates in whatever way he can.
Borya Hushhowl is his younger nephew. Borya was damaged in utero and as a result has a crippled arm/shoulder. Because of this, Temnota is extremely protective over the young boy, and if anyone makes fun of Borya's disability within his earshot, Temnota WILL fight them.
Orion Knight and Starlight Hushhowl are his niece and nephew that are more akin to sister and brother. Born just a month or so after Temnota and Pushok, all four children grew up practically on top of each other. Temnota is fond of his /siblings./
Nayavota Denahlii is his бабушки daughter. Nayavota is a lovely woman that Temnota adores spending time with. She always has interesting theories and explanations for the world around them. Equally, her two sons are the most adorable beans, and Tem loves being an 'uncle' to her children. His puppy crush on her has yet to fade but is slowly developing into a more adult relationship, one disinclined to be romantic.
Cedric Stryder is the leader's youngest son. Just like with Teagan, Temnota looks up to Cedric as an example of Cavalieri behaviors and ideals. Temnota has worked with Cedric on the use of swords and shields, and whilst Temnota ultimately gives up the sword as his weapon, he appreciates the lessons and the time Cedric spent working with him.
Maja is a magic talking bird that Temnota became acquainted with whilst chasing chickens. Maja is the first creature Temnota heard speak High Speech other than luperci, subsequently he has attributed special and mystical status to her, and will follow most, if not all, directions she gives to him.
