## Application Sheet

Soraya was a terracotta-red she-wolf with a light underbelly and light green eyes. She was the firstborn daughter of Anshar and Majavis of Xassa, born at the height of the Hive Wars alongside brothers Arash, Alkor, and Soheil. Her story is just beginning. Soraya was created and RP'd by 4everhound.

## Personality

* ***Proud**.* Soraya is the child of two of Xassa's highest ranking wolves, and the niece of its Cyrus–and she could not be prouder of that fact. With her head held high, she fully embraces the rich and extensive culture of her pack, a staunch supporter of all of Xassa's beliefs and values.
* ***Adventurous.*** What pup doesn't appreciate a little wonder and mischief now and again? Nothing's better than a full day of good old-fashioned fun and games, and Soraya's strong sense of adventure is constantly pushing her to new heights.
* ***Generous.*** There is something quite noble in giving to those who do not have. Soraya believes it is her duty and the duty of every Xassan to spread the wealth of their knowledge and resources to the less fortunate wolves of the Domain. It is both their right and their responsibility, and even as a pup with minimal influence, she would never turn down a soul in need of help.
* ***Decisive**.* Sora's self-confidence means she rarely ever doubts herself, which has as many rewards as it does consequences. She is someone who likes having things her way, and it may take time for her to warm up to perspectives outside of her own and that of her pack.
* ***Forthright**.* Not one to mince words, Sora is as open and honest as any pup can be. She values truth above all else, so anyone who asks her opinion is sure to get one, though it might not be what they expect to hear.
* ***Vain**.* Ultimately, Soraya might be a little *too* proud of herself. She comes from two long lines of great and influential leaders, and as firstborn stands to one day inherit the title of Cyrus, and because of that believes she too is destined for greatness. Her family's accomplishments (none of which are her own) inflate her ego and give her misplaced confidence in her own abilities.
* ***Imprudent.*** For all her lofty goals, Soraya is fairly short-sighted and doesn't consider the long term effects her words and actions have. Despite the dangers of the unknown world, she still believes that standing on the side of Good (the Xassans) means everything will always work out okay. (Spoiler: It doesn't.)
* ***Domineering**.* Sora is familiar with generosity, but not compromise. *She* wants to decide what games to play, which places to go, even what food to eat that day. Thinking she knows best out of all her siblings, she only grudgingly yields when ordered by her parents, or else sulks and sits out of activities entirely.

## Pre-Group History

Majavis and Anshar didn't have what could be considered a conventional relationship. They were both part of an exchange between the warring packs of Oxus and Xassa, their marriage born from obligation rather than romantic love. Despite that, the two grew closer as friends and appreciated one another's company, even more so during the turmoil Xassa faced. Regardless of how they came together, it was clear that they needed each other.

## Group History

Soraya was born during an uncertain time, one far different from that of her parents. Even so, the eager red pup was ready to take on the great big world, from the moment she opened her eyes and took her first tottering steps.

## Trivia

* Until her uncle, Cyrus Nineveh, bears pups of his own, Soraya is next in line to inherit the title of Cyrus.
