## Application Sheet

Annabelle was a dark gray and gold she-wolf with vivid green eyes. She was born in Vektren, to parents Stallion and Raven, alongside three siblings: Jay, Colt, and Pegasus. Annabelle did not remain in her birth pack for very long, choosing to leave as her family left, one by one. She has not been seen in the Domain since. Annabelle was designed by KinaRain and Spicerooni, and created and RP'd by LESter66.

Her half-siblings were Spiral (NPC), Sparrow (NPC), Sylus, Sava, Bloom, Estella, Caspian, or Nemesis.

## Personality

* ***Dominant and Verbally Aggressive.*** Annabelle inherited the classic inferiority complex of the runt: a wolf with a very dominant personality, but no muscle to back it up, she is verbally abusive and constantly argues with anyone she decides has it coming, or maybe is just looking at her wrong) trying to prove to herself and others that she’s not weak.
* ***Cowardly*.** As long as she knows they won't fight back, and if she's angry enough, Annabelle would occasionally physically attack others. But she would never do so if she didn't think she could win; she's afraid of a real fight.
* ***Awkward and Standoffish*.** She doesn't really know how respond to love from her family or others, so she basically just gets angry at any show of affection. She doesn’t hate her family, but she doesn’t understand them. She’s plagued by a certainty that she is somehow *different* from them- especially her mother.
* ***Discontented and Searching*.** While unpleasant, Annabelle isn't evil. She harbors a deep resentment toward wolves who are content with their lives because she herself feels so inexplicably unsatisfied with hers, though she doesn’t recognize this resentment for what it is and thinks she just prefers the company of herself.
* ***Arrogant*.** Annabelle lives in the certainty that she is smarter and just overall better than most other wolves. This manifests itself in her conversations, where she will often make snide and condescending remarks.
* ***Creepy.*** She's not really aware of this, but other wolves have a tendency to find her creepy, as she often paces back and forth if she is having trouble keeping her cool, muttering to herself. Also, she will often glare at people for no apparent reason and then just walk away if confronted, and sometimes will even follow packmates around.
* ***Quietly Violent and a Grudge Holder.*** She identifies a little more with her father, at least a part of whose innate need for violence she has inherited. As she grows, she will begin to fight less as she develops a pride in her ability to control herself- she will decide that no one will ever know how quick to anger she is, and while her expression and tone may give her away somewhat, she will usually never be anything but “polite.” From a very young age, she fantasizes about doing violence against her packmates in retaliation for their “wrongdoings,” but on the outside she will keep her cool.
* ***Religious*.** From a young age, she quickly developed strong religious inclinations. Vektren's dark religion became a "release" for her violent side, and this is something she relishes in.  She will grow to be the kind of wolf that wishes she could force the religion on non-believers, and sometimes she will try.   While she does believe in the existence of the Vektreni gods, as a young adult Annabelle is more about the "religion" of Vektren than the "spirituality." She performs the rituals out of deep habit, need, and fear, not out of true *respect* for the gods.

## Pre-Group History

Annabelle was born the runt of Stallion and Raven’s litter into the pack of Vektren.

## Group History

Annabelle was quite a bully to her more soft-spoken brother, Jay. She told him to play with her, and he tried, but she didn't play very nice, biting him harder than he cared for. She instead chose to bother grown wolves in Vektren.

One 'victim' of her nosiness was Ruffian. Ruffian wanted to investigate the carcass of a dead raven, which had been soaking in the rain, and Annabelle thought it was *super* gross, but wanted to learn more about both how and why he was studying it. He answered her questions, but really wanted her to leave him to his work. However, she wanted to see him dissect it, and he begrudgingly allowed her to do so.

During a thunderstorm one day, Annabelle decided to leave the den, and wandered far from the Nest, making her way to the border. Near the border was an Arynian Ranger, named Lazarus. Lazarus approached her kindly, and when she observed that his markings looked like wings, he told her he could fly. She didn't believe him, thinking he thought her stupid, and the two went to an overcropping over water, to jump and play and catch the air, as though they really *were* flying. However, when she was done playing, Annabelle warned Lazarus that her pack would skin Laz alive if they caught him, and they parted ways.

Annabelle enjoyed tracking wolves as they left the Nest, to see what they were doing. She followed the Viper, Janus, as he went on a 'secret mission' (to get breakfast). He told her to go home, and she got caught in quicksand, and Janus had to rescue her. For once in her life, she was stunned into quiet, apologetic submission.

As she aged, she worked to learn the skills of a Vektren wolf, training with Daithi. She tried to figure out what the best task would be for her to take, especially as her only remaining sibling, Jay, had taken on the task of an Enforcer. He suggested she become a Shade, and she thought maybe a Cleric...but she asked Jay if he really believed he belonged in Vektren.

This was the first time she voiced doubts about her place in the pack. She brushed it off, initially, joking that she'd just pick a task and get it over with, but in the end, Annabelle chose to leave.

## Trivia

* Annabelle doesn't like the water, just like her father Stallion!
