Personality

General: Timid is, as her name implies, a rather shy and uncertain creature. Ones first impression of her usually includes her quiet demeanor. It some cases, that is all one sees of her.

As with any luperci, though, there is much more to her. She is shy with those she does not know well, and speaks very little. However, she is obedient and will fall to a task with determination. She is not very skilled but makes up for that with industriousness. She is loyal to pack and friends alike.

With friends, Timid is a different creature entirely; much more talkative and outgoing. She is very touchy and affectionate. It can be said that she cares more for her friends than she does for herself; she will do all that she can for them without tending to her own needs. She is a good listener and secret-keeper, so anyone can confide in her. She will remain optimistic for their sake, no matter her personal outlook.

Inwardly, she is a troubled soul. She has an extremely low self esteem, magnifying all her faults in her mind. She has depression, which she can usually push though in the presence of friends, but it still remains and will show at unexpected times. She is pessimistic and even sarcastic, though she’ll hide her bitterness in inappropriate situations. She is skittish around larger luperci, especially males. Because of her lack of skills and experience, she is very dependent on others, even excessively clingy at times. Above all else, she wants to be wanted; her greatest fear is that her fears are valid.

History

Past: Born in America to a single half-jackal mother, Timid had a normal life for the first few months. She had one brother and one sister from the same litter, Peace and Mercy. Growing up, she was a very loud child and lacked in the common sense department, often blurting out random tidbits of information that were either inappropriate or meaningless. She was teased by those wolves that traveled near the family, but ultimately she was a shameless creature. Her mother nurtured her, and her brother Merce played with her constantly. Peace, on the other hand, was a bit more distant to the famly.

When she was older, the relationships with her family were tested. The mother was tired of raising the children alone, and she became slightly short with them. She never revealed who the father of the cubs were, simply stating that they wouldn't miss him if they knew him. Merce remained close to Timid all this time, constantly encouraging her and adventuring with her. He was her anchor during the troubling months.

It was Peace who was the problem. The young female was already extremely independent and world-savvy, having snuck off numerous times to explore. She used her optime form more often than the others did and occasionally came home drunk. She harassed Timid constantly, telling her runty sister that she was pathetic, worthless. She didn't outright say these things most of the time, but she still implied it. "You're an idiot," Peace might say. "That's a stupid thing to like. I can't believe you'd do that." Her praise was caustic and her attitude terrible.

Timid was fed up by the abuse and decided, once she reached fifteen months, to leave home. Peace mocked her decision, saying that she wouldn't last a day, but Merce was supportive and helped her on her way. Timid wished that her brother could come with her, but he stayed at home, taking care of their mother. Peace likely left home shortly after, as independent as she was. At any rate, Timid was now alone.

'Souls: Timid was accepted into the Phoenix Valley pack.

/*Just some general notes: You can use this to keep track of your Word of the Day or game points, too. It counts them automatically for you, then. 8D An example of this can be found in Sie's postlog (http://www.soulsrpg.com/ipb/index ... st&p=95421). Please feel free to quote the post and lift that example, though I swear there's nothing different about that code than the code provided here! Also, remember, if you use the basic DIV shell in multiple posts, you only need to include the CSS once! That's it! And then you can control all of your archives with one CSS, if you please! If not, and you want multiple different layouts for each character and you plan to customise each one, *PLEASE* remember to change your class names from .char to your character's name or another unique identification, otherwise your CSSes will overlap and it will be bad.*/
.char-archive {width:95%; margin:0 auto; font-family:'times new roman', times, serif; font-size:14px;}
/* Main DIV control. This controls your base text. If you want a background or border, you can add them here. You can combine this with my pure css table tutorial, sort of, and set a background image with padding to make it pretty, if you want. Big Grin*/
.char-archive li {padding:2px 0px; margin:0px; list-style-type: decimal-leading-zero; font-weight:bold;}
/*This controls the list items and gives them 2px padding on the top and bottom, 0px padding to the left and right, and a leading zero on the list numbers. It also makes the font weight of the numbers bold.*/
.char-archive li em {font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:12px; letter-spacing:-.1px; line-height:16px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; }
/*This is so that we can use a different text/font weight/color/etc for our numbers, and have our actual list item content text differ from the numbers. COOL RITE? */
.char-archive ol { list-style-position:inside; padding:0px; margin:0px; }
/* This sets the position of the numbers inside; you can also have them display outside, if you like, which will push all of the text over to the right and separate out the numbers to the left slightly. I wouldn't mess with the padding or margin unless you want to add spacing around your archive list.*/
.char-archive p {text-indent:25px; margin:0px; padding:0px; }
/*Gives your paragraphs a text indent. I generally only would wrap the thread description with a paragraph tag. If you want to give your thread description a little padding or margin or something, you can adjust those values.*/

Please remember to mark your mature threads in their titles, the first post with the provided warnings, (http://www.soulsrpg.com/ipb/index ... t&p=107437), and in profiles, archives, and post logs. Anywhere you can give people a heads up about a mature thread is good.*/
.char-archive li a {text-transform:lowercase;}
/*Controls the links used in your list items. If you want all of them to display upper or lowercase, I would recommend setting it via CSS rather than manually typing it in capitalized or all lowercase, because it is far, far easier to go back and change things later if you use CSS to set such things. Smile I typed all of the thread titles in my character archives as properly capitalized and just set the links to display as lowercase. Remember, the fact that the a tag is declared after the li tag means that only links within your list items will change; any links outside of this (e.g., where the Wiki Profile / Detailed Profile links are) are not affected.*/
.char-post {font-size:15px; color:#8C0404;}
/*If you want to use the little symbols, this controls their color and size. I like for the symbols to stick out from the rest of the text, hence the color. They also don't look very good at smaller sizes, that is why they are set for 15px. Feel free to experiment, of course. :3*/
.char-archive .separator { font-family:'times new roman', times, serif; font-size:17px; text-transform:uppercase; border-bottom:1px dotted #000000; font-weight:bold; text-align:right; padding-right:10%;}
/*This is the separator control. Font variables and so forth. A note for the separators, you have to place them WITHIN a list item tag (li) in order for them to function properly for every instance except the first one, which is placed outside of the first ordered list tag (ol). An example of this has been done for you--please remember this, otherwise the separators are liable to break something somehow and you will have to rescue your codez and it will not be fun. */

/*Makes your character notes float to the right. You can change this to left, just remember to set char-post float to right too.*/
.char-list {clear:both; padding-top:10px;}
/*This makes your list clear the title and character notes divs. Don't touch this.;P You can change the padding so that there is a different amount between the thread list and your upper two divs; beyond that leave this part alone.*/
