PERSONALITY |[/font]
Many do not get along with the female due to her attitude; she walks and talks like she runs the place. Her language is filled with sarcasm and crude comments - need honesty? Look no further; Verin is blunt to the extreme. Whatever crosses her mind, she never thinks twice before saying it. Her words strikes up a lot of uproar within packs and rivals and tends to get her in trouble. She sticks up for what she believes in and those she likes. Verin seems like she walks around without a soul, the only time she shows life is when she mocks and laughs at the wrongs or stupidity of others'. There's hardly a time where she jokes to brighten other canine's days. She hurts others because it fills the emptiness in her soul. Deep down, buried beneath the pain, anger, and fear lies a sweet belle. The sweet girl her mother was trying to make her honestly does not exist in this day and age. When rivals are near, she will be friendly and able to work with her allies but when they aren't here, she has to cause drama with those who are suppose to be her acquaintances.• likes | Sarcasm, play fighting, challenging others and/or taking challenges, competition.

HISTORY | [/font]
At a very young age, Verin experienced a hard life - nothing would get easier from that point on. She was alone since she was a pup; after giving birth in the woods, Celeste was cleaning and nursing her pups. Due to the drought, the grass was dead and dry and the heat was overbearing - soon, the grass caught on fire and began to spread quickly. Celeste grabbed one of the pups, which happened to be Verin and ran her to safety. She ran back into the woods to grab another pup but by the time the second pup reached safety, it was too late. The others were burned alive. Celeste ran out of the woods, to find the second pup dead as well - the smoke killed him. Verin was the only one ok, so Celeste grabbed that pup and ran her to safety. She began to raise the little girl, teaching her how to hunt and how to speak lady-like... she needed to be a well behaved lady in modern society.
Several months passed by and Verin became a skilled huntress. Celeste and Verin worked together to take down large prey from time to time. Celeste went out one day to look for something smaller, a little snack for herself when she was mauled by a lioness. Verin heard the cries of her mother and bolted toward the sound. She found the lioness attacking her mother and immediately, Verin lunged at the lioness, grabbing and tearing her ear off. The lioness threw Verin off and killed Celeste. Verin put up a fight, getting many scars and injuries but not long after, the lioness gave up and bolted. Verin ran to her mother's side, obviously too late to save her... blood rushed from both canines but one still had life while the other lay cold and limp. From that day on, Verin knew to there was no one else for her here... everyone was an enemy and that's how you had to live life.

SAMPLE | [/font]
It was morning and the female found herself waking on a cold, hard rock upon her birth home; Anevay territory. The call of her father startled her for a split second but she soon gathered herself. Today was like every other day, boring and long. Her excitement was when she left to see her second family in Kachina territory; Hiamovi and Cha'tima had taken good care of her since she was a pup and she couldn't think about leaving them ever. Every day, Indi would leave her home and go visit with them. She considered herself a Kachina pack member as a scout, not an Anevay pack member. Many would see her as a traitor if they ever knew about her leave like this. Sitting up, she stretched her legs and yawned before going to the pack meeting; morning ritual.
We will go hunt again today but for the rest of you, you must stay here and tend to our home. Clean up twigs, stones, anything that may harm future pups or elders and get rid of dangers. Find any cubs from mountain lions and slay them, we shan't have any dangers here. Zuni's voice was full of pride, greed, and danger. She would never be able to get rid of the sight of her parents brutally killing innocent dogs. Their screams, cries, yelps, everything was still vivid and there. She began to hear whispers and gossips of the other Anevay pack members, they murmured and mumbled, thinking she couldn't hear. But she could hear everything. Yes, she's Ziracuni and Una's first daughter. The only survivor too, I hear she's been trespassing into Enola and Kachina territory. She turned her head to the side, listening to the two bitches gossip. Oh, is that so? Her parents allow of that? Is she a traitor or is she our scout? the smaller timber wolf spoke; Indira could feel their eyes burning the back of her head. I'm not quite sure, but from what I hear, she's a traitor. Her lips peeled revealing her sharp, white teeth and she quickly turned around and charged at them, snapping her jaws in her face. I am not a traitor! You keep your fucking mouth shut or I'll shut it for you. Zuni's attention snapped at the three and he quickly moved in. What the hell is going on here? he spoke in harsh tones. Indi glared at the two bitches and the two females looked up at him wide eyed. Nothing... she hissed before walking away.
Zuni's 'brow' rose and he soon followed Indi. Are you alright? What did they say? What made you snap? This was the first time Indira heard her father ask her questions with concern. She stopped and sighed heavily, Nothing. I'm going for a run. With that, Indi took off at a fast paced run, keeping alert of her surroundings. She ran along the Anevay territory before quickly changing directions and headed for Chatan Mountain which was located in The Wild. She knew she couldn't go straight for Kachina territory because others might be on a look-out for her and her parents might send guards to chase after her. She did this a million times, she would always take alternate routes to get to her final destination if it wasn't Anevay territory. She ran and ran until she felt weak and stopped at the mountain. Panting heavily, she licked her muzzle and sat down. She stayed there for a good twenty minutes or so before getting up to walk again. She rolled in some mud to get rid of her scent and to hide it a little in case of trackers and soon went off to Kachina territory.
At the top of Talutah Canyon stood the muddy female. She looked down the canyon before jogging down it swiftly. It was easy for her, she could do this with her eyes shut, really. She knew where every tree, every boulder, every pebble was and she knew exactly where to go to be in a 'safe zone'. Up ahead she could see her surrogate mother Cha'tima and a smile arose on Indi's face. Mom! she called out sweetly, ever since that day she ran to the Kachina's she's called Tima mom, mama, or mommy. Indi would dare not to call Una mother because it felt wrong and she didn't see Una as her actual mother. Sorry I was late... her voice was filled with exhausted and worry. Some girls back at Anevay were gossiping. I think the pack members are starting to grasp the thought of me coming here. They're beginning to call me a traitor! her heart began racing and she could feel a large lump in her throat. I'm scared, mom. I don't know what to do! If they find out, I'll be dead! Her exhaustion and emotions took over and the female soon began sobbing.
