Morgana

Denahi (Brother)

Arthur (Half-Brother)

Zevahni (Half-Sister)

## Application Sheet

Morgana is a dark-brown she-wolf with amber eyes, the only daughter of Malika and Quidel of Havir, sister to Denahi and half-sister to Arthur and Zevahni. She and Denahi were very young when they were orphaned by the meteor impact that destroyed Havir - they then moved on to live in Vale, before ultimately separately leaving the Domain as young adults. Morgana was created and RP'd by Anhurs.

## Personality

* ***Stubborn, Opinionated, Confident, Brave, Resourceful, Logical, Competitive, Feminine, and Rebellious.*** Morgana came into the world very small and with a poor immune system, and as a result she was sheltered from the rest of the pack from the moment she was born. Her mother, Malika, scarcely allowed anyone to see her pups, quickly becoming fiercely over-protective of Morgana in particular. She's become quite rebellious as a result, always trying to find a way to sneak away from the watchful eyes of her mother, though so far she hasn't been very successful. The restriction has caused some slight resentment in Morgana toward her mother, and a great bit of jealousy toward her older brothers for having so much freedom.
	+ Despite her initial ailments as a pup, Morgana is rather resilient for a pup of her size, and very competitive. She's constantly trying to prove herself to everyone, wanting to come off as strong, not a weak, sickly puppy who needs constant coddling. She despises anyone who looks down on her or pities her, finding it insulting. As far as she's concerned, she can very well take care of herself. She doesn't want anyone's help, and very stubbornly refuses any, even if she really needs it. She has little to no fear of anything, almost to a fault, as she sometimes gets herself into difficult situations.
	+ UPDATE: As she's grown a bit healthier, her brother Arthur has started teaching her the basics of fighting and hunting in hopes to give her a better chance of surviving in a place as harsh as Havir.
	+ UPDATE: Since witnessing the death of her mother and the destruction of her homeland, Morgana's mind has suffered greatly. She feels a great amount of guilt for her resentment toward her mother now that she's gone. Seeing her die did a number on her. Loud noises startle her and she suffers from panic attacks and nightmares. She's grown more reliant on her brothers, Denahi in particular, and is always afraid she might lose them. Her love for her family is all that ties her to Vale, as she feels very out of place and is uncertain of her future within the pack. Despite her trauma, Morgana tries very hard to remain stoic and hides her fear, depression, and loneliness from the others. With age her immune system has improved quite a bit, but she remains at a higher risk for illness. She still refuses to let it stop her and remains ferociously determined not to appear weak. Her temper is short, and she is still rather insecure about her abilities and struggles to prove herself daily. She dislikes pity, and refuses to discuss Havir or her parents.

## Pre-Group History

The only daughter of Malika and her late husband, Quidel. Morgana was significantly smaller than her brother Denahi when they were born, which greatly concerned her mother. Morgana became rather ill shortly after birth due to a poor immune system, and Malika feared her daughter was doomed to die just as Zevahni had. Luckily, Morgana pulled through and became healthy once again, though she remained rather small for a pup, tiny in comparison to her brother. As a result, her mother has grown to be rather over protective of her daughter, scarcely allowing her out of her sight.

## Group History

Morgana was a bright and curious pup, eager to meet young Evander when he came to deliver herbs to Malika, at his father, Silvanus's, behest. Even though she was born small and weak, even Saurugol insisted not to give up hope on her, for Morgana was a fighter. And she was, growing to be a juvenile alongside her brother Denahi...before everything came crashing down.

A meteor struck Havir, sending the pack fleeing, casting the landscape in smoke and fire. Morgana lost her mother that day, for Malika had been with Saurugol at the impact site. She was devastated, but relieved that her brothers had survived. Arthur found her and Denahi, and gathered the three of them together, promising that he would get them to safety.

The three wolves approached a group of survivors: Faust, Ira, Evander, Dahlia, Silvanus, Artemas, Lepotica, and Nadina, as well as her young pups, Renae and Alastor. Arthur asked Nadina if she would take Morgana and Denahi to safety, while he continued to search for survivors, and Nadina readily agreed, realizing that they had no parents anymore.

The group of refugees traveled to Vale, where, after Faust reclaimed his title as the pack's Astir, they settled in as Valerians. It took Morgana a long time to adjust, and while adjusting, she met a wolf named Tollek. At first, his attitude reminded her of her brothers, who she'd managed to get away from for a short time, but when he suggested that he could offer her a way to grow stronger, faster, and smarter, Morgana was intrigued. He told her to meet him at the borders in three days' time.

For two months, they met in secret, with Tollek teaching her hunting and tracking skills. She progressed under his tutelage, though she found it difficult to lie to her brothers. Tollek suggested they end their meetings, but Morgana was determined to keep going. She liked spending time with Tollek, and appreciated the lessons he was giving her. She didn't want to lose him. She *adored* him.

Still, she did spent *some* time in her pack. In Vale, Morgana was occasionally cornered by some of the pack's many pups, including young Zinnia.

Morgana's meetings with Tollek didn't go unnoticed by Tollek's sister, Tsuii. One day, Morgana came looking for Tollek, and found his sister instead, who probed for information on the nature of the pair's relationship. She was quite jealous of her brother's connection to the little she-wolf, and was curious. Morgana was open and honest, though she asked a lot of questions of Tsuii, about her and Tollek's past and their lives as loners, as Tollek rarely spoke about himself. Tsuii lied, of course, but Morgana was satisfied with the answers.

She didn't even confront Tollek about his sister's less-than-welcoming behavior, and instead was just happy to return to hunting with him again. She also brought important news to him on her next visit: a change in leadership. Faust had given up his title as Astir, and had appointed Loki in his stead. Not only that, but her brother Arthur was gone from Vale as well, to search for some Havirian kin. Morgana was ecstatic that she could visit Tollek whenever she wanted, because nobody would notice her absence anymore.

It was here that she admitted to hating Vale, who she decided would never view her as an asset, or anything more than the sickly pup she had been. She wanted to leave, but promised for the time being to continue serving as Tollek's eyes and ears in the pack.

But then, she vanished.

Nobody knows what became of Morgana after this last meeting with Tollek, but she has not been sighted in the Domain since.
