(I'll build on this more as she develops as i post more)
Name: Lex
Appearance: As a pup, she's an auburn fluffball. But as she grows out of her puppy fur, she develops a sleek golden brown coat, but on closer inspection the nice sheen is marred by dapples of black fur. Her eyes are a deep green and her right ear is a little tattered. She has a slender build and long legs.
Personality: Lex has a habit of self-sabotage. she'll make a friend and then do something spiteful to hurt them. she can be quite sarcastic and airy-fairy, rather selfish and two-faced, which means she can be rather disloyal at times. She can also be quite sweet and funny when she feels like it.
History: Kicked out of her previous pack for kicking up rivalries and being classed as disloyal and having no honour, and the adults firmly believing that she was possessed by a malignant evil spirit for her ways. Her siblings cursed her and called her Lex The Hex, for ruining the peace and serenity that once was, Lex found herself wandering and ended up in the lands of Transylvania.
Her old pack was full of superstition and strange beliefs, and some things seen as normal to Lex are a complete oddity to most other vargs. she brings with her odd beliefs and odd sayings, and will only lie down to sleep in a spot if she circles it three times clockwise, and then three times anti-clockwise, to rid it of bad spirits. etc.
In Lex's old pack, scavenging was looked upon with disdain and disgust, so kerls were viewed as evil and malicious creatures, probably possessed by some evil spirit, for why else would they have been turned out of their packs? This mistrust had not rubbed off too much on Lex though, though she dislikes being a Kerl.
Hunting was viewed as an honour, and before each hunt a ritual was undertaken to bless the hunters with good luck, although Lex was never privy to the ceremony.
Night-ghasts she believed to be as real as the ground beneath her feet, and if she wasn't in a safe den at night to sleep, and found herself up and about, she would have to twitch her left ear three times, and then her right ear three times every so often, to stop the night-ghasts from invading her mind through her ears.. vigorously twitching her ears dislodged any ghasts that may have been crawling in.
Night-ghasts, the young pup believed, were spirits of the night, who dwelt in darkness and shadow, and in a varg’s sleep they would invade and give terrible nightmares and consume their souls. The way to stop this, was to turn thrice clockwise, and then three times anticlockwise in a circle in a spot that a varg would be sleeping in, to make that spot safe from the evil spirits. although Sunlight made them disintergrate and die.
