PERSONALITY |[/font]
Aurora is a fiercely independent female who will not appreciate anyone trying to tell her what to do. She generally avoids packs after the incident that caused her to leave hers forever. Families, too, are something that she no longer wishes to be a part of, and so as she grows, she will become a bit of a temptress, constantly flirting with males (and maybe doing a bit more than that), but making it clear that such males cannot pin her down. To a typical male, she would seem rather attractive – and not just because of her appearance. She is a feisty, stubborn bitch, who always has a smart, impudent or witty comment and comeback for everything; it’s very unusual for her to not have anything to say. She is also feisty in the sense that she always seems to be energetic, challenging whoever she’s with to prove they’re better than her. She’s extremely argumentative and proud, too, at least when it comes to her appearance, intelligence, and skills. However, she doesn’t care – or does her best to convince herself and everyone else – what anybody says about her flirtatious nature, even though it’s only a matter of time before she actually does more than flirting and showing off and is labelled as a slut.
Because she’s so carefree, Aurora doesn’t have extremely high morals – if she could have a motto, or mottos, “eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die” would be one of them. In short, she believes in living her life to the fullest and taking things as they come, enjoying herself, even if others get hurt. Despite this, she could not exactly be called arrogant. Even though she does, admittedly, think rather highly of herself (yes, she is intelligent and rather beautiful), she still values what others have to say; she enjoys gaining knowledge, and being humble and asking questions is often the best way to do so, even if the former is not something that she would resort to often. She is rather inclusive; she’s not one of those females who loves males and despises other females, and in fact, she often likes nothing better than talking (gossiping), and playing with them, though she is sometimes despised by other bitches for her flirtatious, charming way with males, and not uncommonly for her looks.
Aurora is rather confident; speaking to strangers and those of whom she is afraid does not generally faze her. She uses her emotions as tools sometimes, which is her main secret to her charming nature. She won’t admit to herself that how she acts around males is her main protection from them, the only thing that stops them overpowering her. She doesn’t see that the way she acts has the opposite effect. It may be cliché, but she believes that “true love” is not real, it’s only make-believe, but, deep down, she still wants to be loved by a male, but loved as an equal, loves for more than just her beauty. She wishes she didn’t feel this way, because she knows it’s useless wishing for something that will never happen. So, because love is not real to her, and because she doesn’t want a family, she feels that lust is acceptable.

APPEARANCE |[/font]
Aurora is rather average in height for a Siberian Husky, but fairly slender in build. Her light red and white fur makes her rather eye-catching to males, and she knows it. Like any canine of her breed, she has a dense undercoat and a longer top-coat of short, straight guard hairs. She has a prominent ruff around her neck, made up of mostly light red fur. She has a large, triangular-shaped head, her tall, also triangular-shaped ears aligning perfectly with her eyes. Her eyes are a little unusual for a husky, as one is a piercing ice-blue that contrasts sharply with her coat, and the other is a blazing amber. Her face is mostly white, except for a small section at the top of her skull, where light red fur frames her eyes in a lopsided heart shape. Aurora has a perfectly sculpted body; it's almost a work of art. Her legs are not too thin or too thick for her body, and her neck joins her head to her body effortlessly. Her paws are tipped with dangerous-looking black claws. The result of this is that she never walks, but prances and glides across the ground like a ballerina. Her fine tail is bushy, and the overall effect is that she looks just like a slightly slender, strangly-coloured she-wolf.• height | 21 " at withers

HISTORY | [/font]
Aurora and her six siblings were born to two two-year-old Siberian Huskies, Ice, an aptly named brown-eyed, mostly-white dog, and Sapphire, who was the opposite, with a beautiful mostly blue-black coat and deep-blue eyes. Aurora had two sisters and four brothers, both sisters having brown eyes, and two brothers with brown eyes, one with one blue eye and one brown, and one with blue eyes. Aurora was the only female puppy to have one blue eye and one amber.
Ice and Sapphire had been born at least six months after the humans had died out, both to parents who had belonged to human breeders. At one and a half years old, they had come across each other while traveling, and almost immediately decided to band together and go north, to one of the places where their ancestors had pulled humans along in the snow. Shortly after they arrived at their destination in the late winter, it became evident that Sapphire was pregnant, and Ice was overjoyed. By the time their children were born, it was the beginning of spring.
So their puppies grew slowly, opening their eyes, talking their first steps. Like their parents, Ice and Sapphire named their children after things that could be found in nature, and thus Aurora was named after the beautiful Northern Lights, the Aurora Borealis. Both their parents had told them of it when they had been pups. One of the other females, who was mostly white like her father, they named Snowflake. Fir was a male named after the strange trees that grew in the north and did not lose their leaves during autumn. Eskimo loved digging holes and hiding in them, and both his parent could imagine him doing it in the snow.
All the puppies noticed that Ice was certainly the most dominant of the pair, and he was the one who dictated how their children were to be brought up. He saw to it that all the puppies were respectful of their parents; he also taught them that males were more superior, and should be treated as such. Consequently, Aurora’s four brothers were allowed to eat of any prey caught after their parents, but before their sisters, even if it was Aurora, Snowflake, or Harebell who caught and killed the meal.
As they grew, Aurora and Harebell, being more assertive than their sister Snowflake, decided that they did not like how they were being treated. Snowflake accepted the order of things because she was more like her mother in that she was rather submissive, being grateful for the protection that a large family mainly comprised of males provided.
Things reached a head when the puppies where just over seven months old, in the middle of their first autumn. Aurora and Harebell caught a deer, a fine, large doe, and dragged it back to the others. It was their first kill of such a size. They allowed their parents to eat first, as the etiquette of their little pack dictated, but when Fir, Eskimo, and their other two brothers stepped forward to eat next, the two young females barred their passage to the kill. Eskimo, being of a gentler nature than his brothers, was merely confused, but Fir and the other two became enraged. They might have attempted to kill their sisters if Ice had not intervened. “Harebell, Aurora, stop this right now and step away from the kill.”
But Aurora was not to be deterred. “It was our kill, father, and they have no right to steal it from us. I know I am questioning your authority, but it’s unfair, and I won’t stand for it.”
Everyone, even Harebell, gaped at her for disrespecting the leader of their ‘pack’ so. In a barely controlled growl that was almost a snarl of rage, Ice told her, “Either put up with it, or leave. Males are dominant in this world, no matter what you may think or wish. Stop acting like a newborn.”
With a growl of her own, Aurora darted forward and ripped a huge mouthful of meat from the doe’s carcass. Gobbling it down, she ripped another huge chunk of meat and devoured it in the same fashion. When she spoke, her voice was as cold as her ice-blue eyes. “I will go then. But never, never again will I be ruled by anyone, let alone a male.” Turning, she loped away, never once looking back, not even when ice called after her in a warning howl, “You are no longer part of our pack, our family. If we see you again within a mile of here, we will kill you.”
So Aurora left everything she had ever known. She ran, and ran, and ran, until she was so exhausted that she had to stop and rest. The next few weeks were spent in this fashion. Every day or so she would hunt, and often caught nothing larger than a rabbit. Finally she came to what had once been human civilization, a huge city. Hexasol.
She soon learned about the three groups: the Tempest Pack, the Iris Pride, and the Lexis Tribe. Since she had never seen a feline, she was intrigued. She met one soon enough: a snow leopard, hiding in what else but snow. He attempted to kill her and, having often play-fought with her siblings and sometimes chased and fought with intruding canines to keep them off her family’s territory, gave as good as she got, and managed to fend him off. Seeing that she was strong enough to at least match him, he threw a blow that left her spread-eagled on the ground, and sauntered off. From that day on, she decided that she did not like felines. Not in the least.
By the time she was nine months old, Aurora had established herself as a loner in Hexasol. She had found that she enjoyed flirting with males, and, even better, she was good at it.
