10. Character Profile:
a. APPEARANCE – Cerberus (or Ceri, as he prefers to be called) is a scruffy young thing, though he is by no means emaciated. His wild appearance can be attributed to his thin, wispy, white and tan coat, and his coyote-like build – his mom was, after all, a coyote. He prefers his optime form, using the other two only to hunt, and he stands an average six feet tall. He’s a rather lean fellow, with a confident gait and an even more confident grin. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), he’s handsome and he knows it…and he’s not too shy to make sure you know it too. However, it has been said that it’s rather refreshing to see that he always has a smile on his face, especially because it’s genuine 100% of the time; he will absolutely let you know if he’s upset, otherwise. In optime form, his mane sits atop his head in a short but unkempt do, a travesty that always has his fingers running through it. His eyes are ironically mismatched: his left is a pale gold, calm and honey-sweet like his coyote mother, and his right is an orange as fiery and unforgiving as his timber wolf father. As a tribute to his dear brother’s life and a token of luck (whether good or bad always depends on fate), he proudly wears a piece of the rope with which Geoff tried to hang himself loosely tied around his neck, and if you try to touch it…well, you’d best not. This spry young wolf is built for athletics and combat, always using speed and lightness of foot to his advantage. A token of his sparring, in fact, can be found above his right eye in the form of a thick scar stretched across his brow.

b. BIOGRAPHY – Ceri’s mother had a very difficult time becoming pregnant with him, but once he was born, his brother Geoff wasn’t far behind. Venicia Petal Antum raised her luperci-born boys with a kindness that encouraged strong morals, while Teilo Antum toughened them with a stern hand. While Cerberus grew to be the suave trickster of the pair, Geoff remained a quiet and intellectual being from birth. And, being the first son, Cerberus quickly acquired the affections of his father, while Geoff managed to appear only second-best in Teilo’s eyes. None of the Antum’s knew of the distress this would cause Geoff, however, until it was nearly too late.
A typical autumn day carried a threatening breeze across the plains as the Antum family lounged in an abandoned farmhouse claimed as their own since the boys’ birth. Teilo discussed prime hunting grounds with Ceri, while Venicia pursued one of her many mindless hobbies as usual. Geoff, however, was nowhere to be found. Eventually the wary mother suggested they go find the missing Antum and bring him along on their hunt, which inevitably ignited an enraged protest from Teilo. While the couple argued about the seemingly-absent potential of their second son, the first snuck away to find his brother. Cerberus, unlike his father, was very close to Geoff and very protective of him as well. Too often had he fought the useless battle of defending his brother; he could sense something was wrong, and he wasn’t about to waste time shouting at his dad. Upon inspecting the small glen behind their house, he found the poor lad hanging from a tree by an ill-fashioned noose. Neglecting to call the others, Ceri tore his brother down and removed the rope in time to witness his brother’s last breath, the event shattering all allowance of experiencing the same pain again. Not a single eye was dry when Venicia and Teilo finally arrived, and Geoff was buried hastily with a few shaky words in his behalf. Ceri left home that winter with resentment toward his parents in his heart, as well as a hole left from his brother’s absence.

c. PERSONALITY – It took a while for Cerberus to heal from Geoff’s suicide, as it would have for any caring sibling. But eventually he recovered his sharp wit and sickly-sweet charm and moved on with only a callous over his heart. He continued fraternizing with women (and even men if he was desperate enough), and swindled his way through life until he found himself in Nova Scotia. The ever-changing landscape mirrored his unpredictable nature, and he fell in love with the place right away. His need for attention drove him toward pack lands, but his deep-seated insecurities kept him from calling for anyone. His sense of adventure keeps him wandering neutral grounds, but he’s not the sort to stay a loner for long. Though he may appear to be a cocky smart-aleck, Cerberus is a good man deep down, masking his loyalty and compassion with sarcasm and schmooze. He has been known to get on a few canine’s nerves, but he doesn’t mind a quick spat if one ensues, as it tends to help his standing with the women. Generally, though, he gets along just fine with men and can be a good friend if given the chance. He’s a regular Casanova, with a sharp tongue and a heart of gold; though he may like to fool around, his motives are never harmful.

Hi! :O

You don't appear to have formally dropped Antykk yet. If you want to proceed with joining with Cerberus, Antykk will be automatically dropped, detitled, and removed from the ranks, so you can no longer make any posts with him in IC forums. If you still have things to wrap up, it would be best to wait to join as Cerberus until that's taken care of.

Let me know what you want to do!

Welcome to 'Souls!

Congratulations! You've been accepted into the craziest bunch of roleplayers on the vast Internet! We encourage you to keep checking out our information; you can find a wealth of it on the RP Guide. Don't feel pressured to read it all at once -- the guide is a huge resource and is meant to be used as a reference.

If You've Joined the Game As a...
  • ... Loner, do begin considering which of the packs you'd like to join. Survival as a Loner is less realistic -- wolves and other canines are generally social creatures, preferring to live in a pack structure!
  • ... IC pack joiner, you can now begin posting -- you may start your IC pack joining thread whenever you're ready. Make sure you check the pack information to see if the leadership requires anything extra from you!
  • ... OOC pack joiner, the leader still has to respond here before you can start roleplaying -- don't worry, though; if you're rejected from the pack you'll be titled as a Loner, and you're free to pursue other packs or the same one later.
Post-Joining Process
Mandatory:
  • Make an In Character post within five days. Post a thread request to get started, or consider starting or replying to an open thread.
  • Please let us know in the Absentee Thread if you plan to be absent for more than four days.
  • Keep reading! While there's only a minimum of three topics you have to read to join the game, we provide a wealth of information for a reason -- we expect players to read and reference this material often while they roleplay at 'Souls.
Preferred:
  • If you're leaving us, please try to let us know in the Player Updates forum. There is no penalty for leaving; you're free to re-join at any time later.
Still Need a Bit of Help?

Post any questions you may have in the Questions and Help forum. Check the FAQ first, though! The Mentors can assist you with writing, roleplaying, and understanding 'Souls concepts. Failing all else, contact a staff member.

If you need help getting adjusted to your pack, you should talk to your pack leader! They can help you to understand the pack's rank system and how to get a better rank, as well as direct you to plots, potential thread partners, and active members of the pack who may be interested in engaging you.
