## Application Sheet

She had four siblings: Vladimir (who she was closest to), Ava, Klaus, and Nike, as well as two half-sisters (Lapis and Naava).

## Personality

* ***Calm, Cold, and Intelligent.*** Sveta has been privileged since her birth. Having been raised by royalty, she was taught from a very young age how to properly carry and present herself. She has a tight lid on her emotions, and thinks with a level head. Having been through an array of emotional turmoil, she has become very stoic in appearance. Mastering her composure, she manages to handle most conflicts with a cool and steady temperament, rarely displaying fits of extreme emotion. She wishes to do her family honor by keeping her strong and controlled reputation intact. Sveta prides herself on having a quick-wit and sharp mind. Intelligence and prowess are important to her, and she takes great care in her task as a Meister, devoting a lot of time and attention into her studies. Sveta truly believes that intellect is more advantageous than brute strength. Excelling in a learning environment, she is an information sponge. Facts and skills are her forte and she spends a vast majority of her time performing her duties and widening her knowledge base. She enjoys a good intellectual challenge.
* ***Observant.*** Her senses are her most worshipped trait. Sveta knows that importance of keeping your wits about you. Her eyes and ears are extremely sensitive, and she is easily overwhelmed in an over-stimulating environment. Pale irises make bright light difficult for her, and she naturally prefers the cover of darkness. With a nose specialized in tracking herbs and other medicines, she is a master tracker, knowing her territory back to front. She has an excellent sense of direction and rarely gets disorientated or lost.
* ***Blunt and Critical, but Guarded.*** Living in a society that discourages emotional conduct, Sveta has learned to keep her personal thoughts close to her chest. In the light of heavy loss, she has been forced to put up walls, becoming quite detached and impersonal. Her overly serious appearance makes her very unapproachable and intimidating at the best of times. Relationships are no longer a priority for her, and she rarely spends time among the pack. Feel little, hurt less. Not one to sugarcoat, Sveta is known to speak her mind and confront situations head on. She will voice her opinions openly, caring little for the harm or offense it may cause. She would much prefer to speak the truth than stay silent in order to spare someone's feelings. Her distaste for lowbloods and strangers is apparent, and she does little to hide her disdain, often addressing them in a brash and condescending manor. She has little if no patience for ignorance and judges quickly. Making up her mind instantaneously, it's all about first impressions with this she-wolf.
* ***Prideful and Dedicated.*** Appearance is of the utmost importance to Sveta. She was always taught that first impressions mean everything, and therefore holds herself with pride and grace. She takes great care in maintaining her physical appearance, taking time to ensure she looks presentable. She believes that ones appearance is a good indicator of their general dedication and commitment. She is easily disgusted by lack of discipline and unruliness. Family is everything to Sveta, and she would die for them in a heartbeat. Her kin are one of the few things that Sveta openly cares for. She shares are particularity strong bond with her brother and cousins, and relies on them more heavily than she dares let on. Loyalty to her pack and her family is vital, as she knows that without them, she wouldn't be. She expects respect and dignity to be shown towards her kin at all and loves them fiercely. Although difficult to connect with, once you have gained Sveta's trust she will be devoted to you eternally and unconditionally.
* ***Volatile.*** Known for her sharp tongue and icy temperament, Sveta is not a wolf to catch in a bad mood. Withholding a lot of resentment and bitterness, she is a highly strung individual balancing on a very thin wire. Having to reign in her internal emotions constantly burdens her, and it takes very little to wake her internal fire. Rather unstable, she handles emotional conversations or criticisms poorly. Sveta is very quick to judge. Naturally, she views wolves that are of a lower rank as less than herself and her family. Having been raised to believe that Highbloods are superior in every aspect, she naturally regards herself as nothing less. Such an attitude makes her abrupt and rude when in the company of strangers or lowbloods. It would take a lot to impress her and even more to earn her respect and trust. Often considered ruthless and cruel, she isn't afraid to voice her distaste. Never will you see or hear Sveta talk about her feelings or emotions. She is extremely private and guarded, and finds it impossible to share her deepest thoughts, even with her close friends and family. She is incredibly withdrawn. She finds liberty in escaping, and is rarely seen around camp. Despite her outward confidence, she is very insecure about her physical attributes and fears being judged for her resemblance to Eadric.

## Pre-Group History

Born of the King and Queen of Highvalley, Sveta was the eldest daughter out of a litter of four. It consisted of her elder brothers, Klaus and Vladimir and her younger sister Ava. The family was reasonably close knit in their younger years, loving one another immensely. Sveta was lively, well mannered and curious in demeanor. She found great joy in her cousin's and siblings company and thought good of the world. However, it was clear from the start that the eldest son Klaus, who was heir to the throne, had a deep restlessness that affected his concentration and training. Rodwen was known to be tough on his children, shaping them into Royals from the moment they were born, but unfortunately for Klaus, he and his father never seemed to see eye to eye. Sveta watched her brother and father wrestle with training, and tension's began to escalate quickly. Not wishing to get involved, Sveta removed herself from them, and devoted most of her young life interacting with her cousins and Vladimir, growing especially close to Gwyn, Klaus's betrothed, and Vera.

But the hostility between Klaus and her father continued to grow and fester as the days flew past, and finally, her brother snapped. He left the pack without a trace...that was the last Sveta ever heard of him. The whole family was shaken by the sudden betrayal, her mother especially. Pregnant with her second litter, Fia deteriorated quickly after Klaus's disappearance, falling terribly ill. The sickness gripped her frail body, and unfortunately, she lost the battle during birth, delivering the only surviving pup, Nike. Sveta was shaken terribly, breaking down only to Edythe. Her mother being her rock and escaped inward to cope with her grief. Unfortunately this mechanism destroyed her childhood optimism and friendships.

As she aged, so did her bitterness. Sveta began to loathe her sister's soft acceptance, and fought with her regularly. She felt scrutinized by her family due to her resemblance to Klaus and Eadric. She is constantly trying to do her father proud, but has secretly accepted that he will never see past her dark pelt. Isolating herself, Sveta delved into her studies, working diligently and gaining as much knowledge as she could. As a result, she has become a brilliant Meister, mastering the medicines and lore of the pack. She prides herself in her work, and often looses herself in her task. In her emotional absence, Sveta has put up walls and barriers to defend herself. As a result, the pack views her as unapproachable and cold, appropriately naming her the "The Icewolf" She has become unpopular among the lowbloods and avoided by most Highbloods, aside from her immediate family.

## Group History

Sveta often traveled alone around Highvalley, collecting herbs and observing the natural world around her. Because of this, she sometimes arrived close to the borders, and met loners who came too near. One wolf she stopped at the border was Samwell; she asked him what he could offer the pack, and decided he was worthy of meeting her father, the High King. Sam was relieved - and Sveta was quite brisk escorting him to Highvalley!
