PERSONALITY |

[/font]

A sneaky man can get the secret, a sarcastic man can fool the unintelligent. Hedley is a rather secretive fox, keeping secrets to himself and controlling them with ease - however, he is a very sneaky and cunning male. Much like how the humans refer to foxes being sneaky - Hedley lives up to this stereotype - being as sneaky little fox since birth - however not everyone is sneaky enough that they never get caught, and when Hedley is caught he reserves back into a natural safety - his sarcasm. Hedley is a difficult male to understand when he gets into his 'safety net'. He will answer everything asked towards him with a sarcastic tone - or imply that a straight answer is not needed, and waddle away.

But this does not imply that he is a sarcastic, sneaky bastard. Oh no - he is in fact one of the well rounded males, who has a balanced soul - his heart is kind, and he will let anyone in with ease and accept their dark sides before he takes any action in judging them. He seems a little bit shy or reserved when you first greet him, but he slowly opens up just for those few he can call friends. He's loyal to all those who are willing to have his back, and quite a brave male to stand up for his beliefs in peace and calm for the city of Hexasol. However the loyal, kind-hearted and brave male is quite the gentleman too. He has been known to offer a female his meal in hopes that he can prove he's not always that sneaky, cunning, sarcastic bastard.

But sometimes while he can come off as a very friendly and outgoing male, with an intelligent side - he can be that cursing and hateful male. He's got quite the temper that can unleash a rather rude and unpredictable male who will snap his jaws are just about anyone. Which leads one to question if he does have any mental disorders - which in fact he does not. He is just a well rounded male with a few flaws that can be called upon easily. But he's friendly most of the time - or at least tries to be. He can not be blamed for felines or canines who repeatedly ask him questions that egg him on.

One can call him creative. He's got a wicked imagination, that can lead to some outstanding - fictional - stories. Of glorious battles between humans and animals, to stories of the star-cross lovers. He enjoys the youngsters of the tribe and enjoys spilling stories upon their paws even if some of them are twice the size of him. He is always eager to help with the youngsters, even going as far as babysitting them for the parents if they are needed elsewhere - and Hedley does not mind at all. He is quite light on his feet and enjoys playing mindless youngster games such as tag and hide & seek with them. However while he loves youngsters, he rather not have a mini him running around the place.

• likes | Walking. Hedley loves to mindlessly walk around Hexasol. It is an interesting city and he has a lot of desire to explore the home that he has come to love - despite the rivalries. Story Telling. Hedley loves telling stories, fictional or stories with facts - it is always a joy to read to the youngsters and explain history, or fiction to them. Youngsters. They are his pride and joy in the pack - he enjoys playing games with them, keeping their youth and even restoring some of his lost youth.
• dislikes | Pointless War. Of course, if you actually provoke the war, you've brought it upon yourself. But when the town can hold the three groups of animals, why can they not live together in harmony? Pointless war disguises him, he rather die in a battle provoked, not pointless scuffles for territory. Traitors. Loyalty in a Tribe (pack or pride) is important and one would do well to understand that. Hedley has a clear mind set that traitors should be treated as such, and punished heavily. However he is not all cruel. Liars. Liars are a personal dislike he has - but he can not say much on the subject, because he has told his share of lies. He may hate liars - in a sense himself - but he will not acknowledge that sometimes a liar needs to lie in order to remain alive.
• goals | Become a Father. Despite his rather forward personality of not wanting a mini-him running around, he very much would love his own kits. However adopted kits or his own flesh in blood, he already has partially complete. He considers the youngsters he tells stories too his person family.
• fears | Abandonment. He fears abandonment, rejection and being forgotten. He does not want to be forgotten, for he fears he will never be remembered. He does not want to be abandoned in fear of loosing his only home. Rejection is something he could live through but the pain of rejection would leave him in a haunted mood.
• strengths | Creativity. He has a certain creativity that can be called upon a strength, he can entertain a youngster is he tries hard enough, and yet he can creatively think of many aspects of war in his mind, but speaking such is not want he wants. Loyalty. He is loyal, which in it's self is a great aspect to have in a group of felines and canines. He trusts his fellow tribe members to have his pack and he is trusted to back them up. He however shows loyalty as much as he can in everyday life. Hunting. He is a stealthy hunter and uses his small size and fox instinct to catch small enough prey for the tribe - however he does do well with gathering as well.
• weaknesses | Youngsters. He has a weakness for youngsters, they are in fact young and don't know what they are doing or what they have to do. He would rather put his own life in danger then let a youngster die - so swapping him for a youngster of his own tribe being held capture is a must in his book. Old Injuries. Some days his old injuries will act up - like his old sprained ankle; which leaves him unable to really move his leg - waddling as such to keep from being a annoying lazy bum. Injured Canines/Felines. Regardless of your pack, pride or tribe Hedley is quite caring when it comes to the injured - he would protect them if he could and offer shelter, but he doesn't - honestly know - if it's because he's been injured and no ones helped him willingly - or if he just feels like he needs to help.
• mental disorders | None. Hedley has none known mental disorders - but one has been known to accuse him of bi-polar. However he does not have any and is just a moody fox sometimes. He sometimes will play along with felines or canines if they accuse him of disorders - just to see what they will say.

HISTORY | [/font]

Let's start from the very beginning. Back to a time where Hedley wasn't even alive, back to his parent's time on this planet. It's not a known fact, but Hedley is actually Hedley II. So let's start with a bit of a parental background. I will explain Hedley I first.

Hedley was a wild-born red fox who's mother was run over by a car - six and a half years ago. The woman who ran the Hedley I's mother over brought the small fox into her house to raise - clearly not thinking about the fact that she could be charged - just simply helping the helpless fox grow. Hedley I looked exactly like his only living son - and despite growing up in a home with humans - he kept that wild adventure-seeking side. However when the humans were wiped out of the town he fled through the opened window and vanished without a trace into the night. Hedley I would emerge two years later, more mature and with a young vixen with him. This leads us to Gwen's upbringing.

Gwen was a forest-born fox who grew up wild and at the tender age of six months, Gwen took her independence and fled from her family. She however stumbled across Hedley I and in fact when they first met her name had been Fern - but because of her dislike for the name - and Hedley's idea that Gwen would be better suited - she changed her name willingly. Gwen helped Hedley I adept to the life of a wild fox and when they stumbled back onto the city of Hexasol Gwen was heavily pregnant with her and Hedley's kits and alas - stumbled upon the Iris Pride. Gwen fled and Hedley passed away as she fled. She gave birth to three kits - two stillborns but the last was born breathing and she named him Hedley after his late father.

Hedley was born in April Third, a nice spring day. However Hedley II (we will just call him Hedley from here on out) was a bit of a rascal. He and his mother joined the Lewis Tribe not long after Hedley grew to be seven months. Gwen - much to Hedley's displeasure, left the tribe one day and never returned - leaving Hedley to live with the tribe. As a young male fox, he would run about the tribe exploring things and sticking his nose where he shouldn't. He was eventually hurt because of his curious nature - which led to trash cans landing and spraining his hind leg when he was a year old.

At a year and a half he was able to walk normally again and do as he pleased - but his pride was hurt and he became a bit of a sarcastic male. He used sarcasm to cope and after another half year and he was playing with the youngsters - enjoying their youth compared to his two years. That was when he began to tell stories, his first was about a Princess of the Canines who fell in love with the Prince of the Felines and they strived to be together - like the animal version of Romeo and Juliet. He was excited by the excitement of some of the youngsters. As he aged he decided to play games with them and even went as far as to play physical games that wore him out faster then it would others. Now he is three years old and still rolling.

• season born | Spring.
• place of birth | Hexasol.
• family | Hedley's name sake was his father, a red fox himself who at a young age had lost his own mother and was adopted by a human for his young age. When the humans died out, Hedley's father broke free from the house and fled the dying humans. Hedley's father soon meet Hedley's mother Gwen who gave birth to Hedley three years later new the Lewis Tribe. Hedley had two sisters who were stillborns.
• memorable events | Story Telling. He remembers the first time he ever told a story to the youngsters, it was fun, and entertaining to watch a few youngsters.
