Viola

Anakoni (Brother)

Rajbera and Virago (Sisters)

## Application Sheet

Viola was a brown-furred she-wolf, born and raised in Chandor. She was one of Arcuza and Mechka's children, alongside Anakoni, Virago, and Rajbera. Quiet and withdrawn, she never really formed connections in her pack, and decided to leave, to hover about the area as a hermit, not interacting with other wolves. She was created and RP'd by mongoosefangs.

## Personality

* ***Quiet and Gentle.*** Young Viola is a bit of a wallflower who seems happy to stay in her own little self-contained world. A quiet observer, she's more inclined to watch than to engage in play.
* ***Curious.*** She's constantly studying and categorizing everything from animals, to plants, to her own family. Viola likes to know how things work, and hers is a gentle but persistent curiosity. Why is the sky blue? Why do we live in a pack? Why do my siblings act this way or that way? Few subjects are off-limits to Viola and she may gain something of an undeserved reputation for being macabre or cold as she grows older- this isn't the case, she's just more concerned with facts than feelings. The world is a fascinating place, and lacking actual life experience, she views even dark, scary topics with detached and scientific interest. It may take a while for her to learn that some questions are better left unasked.
* ***Practical and Helpful, if Passive.*** Sometimes she may unintentionally step on toes; her packmates may see her as insensitive or socially clueless. Viola adores her Chandor family, of course, but she's slow to pick up on others' emotional needs. She assumes that they will just come and ask her if they really need something. Viola's not one for grand displays of mushy affection. Rather, she tends to show her love in practical ways, gathering food for her family or helping her siblings with their chores. If you give Viola a task, you can be sure she'll follow through with it- but not always as quickly or as straightforwardly as expected. She can get so wrapped up in analyzing minute details that she misses the forest for the trees and makes things more complicated than they need to be. Viola tries to be dutiful, but she's ultimately a thinker rather than a doer, and her overly passive and abstract nature may put her at odds with her mother's expectations.
* ***Isolated and Uncertain (about herself).*** Viola is a content and happy child, for the most part, but she's blind to her own misgivings and feelings of isolation. Chandor is so big, how could she ever be lonely with so many siblings and packmates around all the time? But it's hard to be the odd one out; increasing awareness of her poor social skills may plague her in the future, particularly when she comes of an age where she starts to notice boys. And while Viola initially accepts the facts of her father's absence and assumes that Mechka will come home one day, the longer she's forced to wait, the harder it becomes for her to rationalize. She may start to wonder if her dad is really as great as the stories claim or if something deeper is going on. The day may come when she no longer wishes to meet him, when it's simply easier to write him off as dead than to face the possibility of heartache and disappointment.

## Pre-Group History

Born to two devoted Bear Totems of the pack, Viola was brought into a loving and large family - wanting for nothing except her absent father, Mechka, who she has only ever heard stories about. In the meantime, she's got a world to discover and no shortage of surrogate aunts and uncles in Chandor to guide her along the way.

## Group History

Viola was quiet and withdrawn her entire life in Chandor. She didn't like to play with her siblings when she was little, preferring to be by herself, and this continued as she aged.

Ultimately, she decided to leave the pack, and instead, hover around the area as a hermit. Thus, she is officially retired from the Domain, though she can still be spotted around the area - a flicker of brown fur, a pair of watchful red-orange eyes. Best to just leave her alone - she's happiest that way.

## Trivia

* Her personality type is INTP.
* She'd probably make a great Elk Totem, except for one thing - she's squeamish about wolf's blood.
