- Phoenix - 10-28-2007 [html]NAME: Phoenix PRONUNCIATION: Fee' nix GENDER: Male AGE: 3 years BIRTHDATE: December 17, 2004 BIRTHPLACE: Somewhere in Canada SPECIES: 100% wolf SUBSPECIES: 50% Canis lupus fuscus (Cascade Mountains wolf), 50% Canis lupus arctos (Arctic wolf) WEREWOLF: Yes WEREWOLF TYPE: Shifter from birth MOTHER: Cecilia [missing, presumed dead] FATHER: Anubis [missing, presumed dead] SIBLINGS: Chicago [M, deceased], Arthur[M, deceased], Pharaoh[M, deceased], Isis [F, deceased] OFFSPRING: Sun Phoenix[F, adopted], Moon Sky Phoenix[M, adopted], Ember Phoenix[F], Icarus Phoenix[M], Kansas Sadira[M], Firefly Sadira[F], Dierdre Rhiannon[F, adopted] PAST LOCATIONS/PACKS/RANKS: Storm: Subordinate, Lehrling, Wahrer, Jager, (briefly) Lehrer, Gamma, Beta PAST MATES: None CURRENT PACK: Storm CURRENT RANK: Alpha CURRENT MATE: Iskata Sadira FUR COLOR: Dark brown; coffee-colored FUR PATTERN: Coarse and mono-colored hair. His mane stays long and does not retract when he shifts back into his wolf form, so he has to keep it in a foot-long braid to keep it out of his face. EYE COLOR: Emerald green at the edges blending into a lighter green inside TATTOOS: Left shoulder: Storm's insignia PIERCINGS: None SCARS: While Phoenix has many small scars underneath his coat, prominent ones include a small one above his left eyebrow, rather sizable one across his right shoulder, one across his collarbone on his left shoulder, and one on his left arm running from his elbow down to his wrist HEIGHT: 3'6" (8'7" in werewolf form) LENGTH: 6' WEIGHT: 165 lb. (410 lb. In werewolf form) PHYSIQUE: Well-built and very muscular PERSONALITY: Phoenix holds a deep sense of responsibility, first to his family, then to his pack, and then to anyone else he considers a friend and doesn’t fall into the first two categories. All he ever really wants is a peaceful life raising his family. He isn’t easy to anger, but when he sees someone he cares about threatened he becomes ruthless and dangerous until they are safe again. A reluctant alpha, Phoenix attempts to maintain a façade of professionalism and self-assurance, for fear of showing weakness as a leader. Underneath his somber exterior, he has a sociable, polite and gentle nature, which is becoming more and more prominent as he grows surer of himself. He is much smarter than he gives himself credit for. Phoenix also is a telepath, although he is fearful of his abilities and extremely careful in his use of it, unwilling to violate anyone's privacy. TELEPATHY: At all times Phoenix is at least aware of the sentient minds around him. He can sense others nearby as a sort of “luminescence” and sometimes even pick up on emotions. However, he must concentrate on someone in order to connect minds with them, and he can only do it with one mind at a time. With enough focus he can even “transmit” a message into another’s mind, though he cannot hear a reply or someone else’s thoughts without connecting. Once connected, his telepathy primarily consists of data exchange: he can sense thoughts or view memories, or send thoughts and memories of his own to the other. With enough concentration he can even unlock suppressed memories, though such effort usually exhausts him. It takes less effort to work with another psychic, though the same limitations usually apply. Some days his perceptiveness can “flare” and he loses control; his mind connects to anyone within range. On these days he attempts to isolate himself until he regains control. These days come less frequently now that he has had more chance to develop and understand his ability, but they still happen. BIOGRAPHY (The Story so Far): THEME SONG: “Carry On Wayward Son” by Kansas SOUL GRADE: Good-Evil LIKES: family; his pack; helping others; swimming DISLIKES: solitude; Inferni (doesn’t trust them); being telepathic; Aerosmith (oops that one's mine) Images By Nyx.

[/html] - Phoenix - 10-28-2007 Word of the Day Points: Total points: 15 1. persiflage- It was no persiflage to tell a child looking for her father that her goal was now most likely unattainable. 2. amity- Already he had blown any chance of amity between himself and Dierdre’s so-called grandmother, the alpha of Jaded Shadows. 3. benefaction- His benefaction to her had not been entirely altruistic. 4. ebullient- When the border-call came Phoenix was instantly on his feet and running quickly to the source, ebullient. 5. arcanum- In those few moments he had learned more about Skoll than he had from hours of conversation; and, paradoxically, he also learned why Skoll 's past was arcanum. 6. lacuna- Perhaps it was not his place to ask but he chose to look into the lacuna of Skoll’s mental armor while it was still open before him. 7. supplicate- Winter was a harsh mistress, one you could not supplicate for mercy. 8. nonagenarian- Phoenix still wasn’t sure when he would get used to it, himself. Perhaps if he lived to be a nonagenarian, but that was physically impossible. 9. upbraid- But Phoenix decided to pick his battles and opted not to upbraid him for such a response. 10. upbraid- Turning to his overzealous daughter he gave her a strange look and said “Hold on, gimme a chance to accept her first,” but opted not to upbraid her further than that. 11. stoic- He tried to act stoic, nonchalant, forcing his gave to wander the lands around them as if the last thing on his mind was the answer he waited for. 12. permeate- He allowed the golden moment to permeate every fiber of his still adrenaline-concentrated body. 13. lubricious- He couldn’t tell if she was making an idle compliment or hinting at something more lubricious. 14. abominate- He did not abominate the wolf, but since he had tried to kill his friend Phoenix couldn’t feel an ounce of remorse for him either. 15. nettlesome- He would worry about the nettlesome details later. |
