## Application Sheet

Icicle was a gray-and-white-furred she-wolf with golden yellow eyes. She was born in the midst of the Hive Wars, to Kaen and Polarstag of Chandor, alongside three siblings: Sleet, Elderberry, and Lunelle. After the wars ended, and her mother was fatally wounded, Icicle decided to leave Chandor, and the Domain, alongside her half-brother Nikola, and hasn't returned since. She was created and RP'd by toboe5tails.

Her half siblings were Nikola, Padavina, Kaito, Chise, Ice (NPC), River (NPC), and Snowfall (NPC).

## Personality

* ***Bold.*** When it comes to trouble, Icicle always endeavors to be the first one to shove her big fat nose in it. She's an adventurer at heart, with a strong desire to explore (and ultimately conquer) her surroundings. She jumps at the chance to take the lead in any game or activity, and refuses to back down from a challenge, no matter how impossible. This quality extends to her attitude as well; Icicle isn't afraid to speak her mind and talk back to anyone, wolves with power or authority over her included.
* ***Rambunctious.*** Icicle is something of a bottomless pit of sheer energy. She loves to play, running around having fun from dawn till dusk, or whenever she happens to fall over spent on the ground. If she cant get her siblings to play with her, she'll just find someone else, pinballing around until she either finds a willing participant or just gets frustrated enough to not care if they're willing. It's preferable if you WANT to play with her, but she's just as happy to bite your tail or chew on your ears even if you aren't.
* ***Confident.*** Icicle is confident almost to a fault, hovering around the fine line that separates confidence from egotism. She's utterly unconcerned with being wrong, or mistaken, or the possibility she might fail at something; if she sets her mind to it, Icicle is utterly assured she can do anything until reality proves otherwise. Even her failures are little more than a temporary roadblock for Icicle, if she's knocked down she'll get right back up as many times as it takes.
* ***Witty***. While hardly a comedian, Icicle is drawn to a biting, sarcastic sort of humor. She takes a lot of joy in coming up with snappy comebacks and sarcastic remarks, usually more as an in-joke with her siblings and friends rather than out of any kind of genuine dislike for anyone. That said, it's still not very nice to the party on the receiving end, and she'll begrudgingly apologize if called out on it. Oh did I mention puns? She loves puns. The worst the pun the better.
* ***Competitive***. Icicle's got a strong competitive streak; she's determined to be the best at any and everything she does. If you tell her she's not, she sees that as all the more reason for her to try even harder. She never backs down from a challenge and is easily goaded by dares or insinuations she's a coward. Just as much as she won't back down from a challenge, Icicle loves to challenge others to compete as well, sometimes even making innocuous things into a competition and declaring herself the winner without telling anyone it was even a contest.
* ***Ambitious.*** Above all else, Icicle is determined to make it big in life. She aims to rise through the ranks and achieve great things, and her ultimate dream is to become the Alaka'i herself. While she's not calling for Nadia's untimely deposition by any means, she's also not at all subtle about her ambitions to see herself in Nadia's place one day. She can't be alpha forever after all, SOMEONE is gonna have to be Alaka'i after her, and Icicle is certain that she will be that wolf.
* ***Stubborn***. Icicle is both unstoppable force and immovable object at the same time. She's not one to admit defeat easily in any circumstance, and even if she does it will be in a begrudging way where she still doesn't really think she'd done anything wrong. She's staunch in her convictions, and convincing her otherwise is an arduous task for anyone except maybe her parents and littermates. She cares at least a little about what they think, but anyone else is gonna have a very VERY hard time.
* ***Mischievous***. If there's one thing Icicle loves more than bad puns, it's PRANKS! She loves pulling pranks and practical jokes on her packmates, like kicking up dirt in their face or splashing them with mud or tripping them into swamp muck. Chandorians beware, if you find yourself on Icicle's bad side, you may be the next target for the prankmaster.

## Pre-Group History

Kaen and Polarstag's first meeting was unorthodox for certain, but being slapped in the face by a fish didn't stop the pair from becoming fast friends. Spending years becoming close, Kaen and Polar had a lot in common, both having tragically lost their mates in the past. But in spite of their past hardships, they came to realize their feelings for each other, and officially became mates soon after. The two of them were in no rush, but one night the topic of pups came up in casual conversation, and they came to realize that they were ready to start a family.

Icicle and her three siblings were born on the tail end of the spring season, doted on and loved by their parents. However, not all of their blood relations were happy with their birth, and unbeknownst to all outside of Chandor danger lurked on the horizon...

## Group History

Because so many wolves in the pack were busy with their duties, and the Owl Totems often free to teach lessons to the youngsters and babysit, Icicle and her siblings often fell under the care of Naiteru Kiri, Mirakel, and Mila. They had a lot of fun! Icicle wanted to learn more from her older half-brother, Nikola, about combat. She wanted to prove herself worth his attention, but honestly, Nikola wanted nothing to do with his mother's children. She continued to pester him, however, which made him dislike her even more.

Icicle enjoyed time with her parents though - her father loved to tell the kids stories, and Icicle was also delighted when Polarstag and Kaen took her out of the camp on their first explorations! She and her siblings grew fast, and by autumn, they were approaching young adulthood.

At the Autumnfest celebration, Icicle and Lunelle played tag, having an absolutely wonderful time romping through the leaves! Her youthful innocence would be tested, however, when the Hive encroached on the Domain. Icicle wasn't involved in the fighting, but her family were, and Polarstag in particular had been seriously injured.

They'd all been driven from Chandor's territory at one point, and took refuge with Aryn after a difficult battle. When the battle was won, Icicle went with a party of her packmates to check if the Hive were gone from Chandor's lands before the rest of the pack returned. Aside from herself were more experienced wolves like Jura, Naiteru Kiri, and Logos, as well as Ataw and Rowan.

They didn't find any Hive wolves left in the territory. Chandor moved home for a time, but not too long. Instead, they received word from the pack Mhor, who had found where the Hive Queen was located, and were summoning all of the packs to join them in battle. And so, they set off.

Icicle didn't sustain any major injuries in the final battle. In fact, she came out relatively unscathed, unlike her mother Kaen.

Kaen was tended to for weeks by the Elk Totems, but eventually, they and Polarstag reached a grim conclusion: she was dying. She had sustained a serious wound that became infected, and nothing they could do was helping her recover. Eventually, the pair called their children to them and told them the news.

Icicle and her siblings were devastated by the news. She watched as Nikola decided to leave the pack, rather than watch his mother's death. He wanted to find his siblings, reunite them, apologize for his behavior in the past. And so, he set off.

Not alone, though.

Icicle chased after him, and demanded to come along. Nikola didn't protest.

And so, the duo departed the Domain, and have never been seen since.

## Trivia

* For most of her life, Nikola refused to acknowledge Icicle and her littermates as his siblings.
