Nova

Three Unnamed Siblings (Stillborn NPCs)

Eir, Andi, Vindur, and Sigurd (Half-Brothers)

## Application Sheet

Nova was a small white she-wolf with light brown markings and black-tipped ears. The only surviving daughter of Fitu and Nahimana, alphas of Heylguard, she suffered alongside her pack through the Curse of Pajackok until her father took ill. When Fitu became ill, Nova left the pack, unwilling to watch him die. She never met her half-siblings Vindur, Andi, Eir, and Sigurd. She was created and RP'd by SeleneTheWerewolf.

## Personality

* ***Somber, Lethargic, and Introverted.*** Nova does not act like a normal pup. She is not bouncing with joy or always wanting to play. In fact, she is quite somber and lethargic. Growing up during the Curse of Pacjackok hovering over her pack, and the lack of littermates, meant that she didn't really have reason to play as a youngster. As a result, she's rather quiet and somber.
* ***Dutiful, but Distrustful.*** At most times, she will suppress her melancholy feelings and try to get the adults or older wolves to play. During her puppy-years it is becoming a hard time for the wolves of Heylguard to remain anything but as listless as she looks. She sacrifices her own feelings of weakness to try and cheer any wolf up; friend or not. Despite trying to cheer most wolves up, she doesn't much trust any who aren't her family.
* ***Pacifistic, and Cowardly.*** Being raised by such pacifist of wolves, she hates fighting and is often coward when it comes to confrontation. But, being a wolf she realizes she does need to become stronger to at least defend herself.
* ***Spiritual and Imaginative.*** Spending most of her time alone in the back of her home den it was without a doubt she would begin to talk to herself and create imaginary friends; who she believes are Spirits talking to her to keep her company. Despite being born with a weak body, Nova does not blame the Gods. In fact in only makes her more dutiful in her beliefs. Being born in such a weak body can only mean she will ascend through many trials to become an even stronger wolfess.

## Pre-Group History

Her mother is Nahimana. She was the leader of Dawnguard, a young and inexperienced young alpha. Her father, is Fitu is the leader of Heyl, another young alpha. The two of them met when they were both individual leaders of their own packs. Almost instantly, they felt a sort of connection that only became more and more tangible the more they saw each other. Heyl and Dawnguard soon became allies and after spending some days in Heyl, they began falling deeper in love. Their love was no doubt a sign from the Gods. Bringing two packs together through love. Though it would become a challenge, they became mates and were soon expecting their first litter. Trials of an illness taking over Dawnguard territory brought the two packs together.

When the time came for her to be born, she was the only live pup in her litter. In that moment it became clear the Gods did not see the Alphas' union as a blessing.

## Group History

Nahimana returned from giving birth to the pack, announcing the arrival of Nova and keeping secret the fact that three other pups were born, but deceased. She didn't want her pack to doubt her strength or fear that it was a sign from the gods. Nova was welcomed into the pack.

When the Curse of Pajackok sank its fangs into Heylguard, Nahimana, already weakened by grief over her stillborns and constant worry for her pack, contracted illness and passed away, keeping Nova close until she breathed her last.

She was still quite sickly and with her first spring, she had allergy attacks quite often as a result of all the pollen. Sneezing, watery and itchy eyes, and snotty nose were all too common. All the while, the pack's sickness continued, though it was reaching its end.

Nova decided that she *had* to leave Heylguard. Watching Fitu be sick made her realize that she couldn't watch her Father die like her Mother. She said one last goodbye to her Father and followed the Northern Star, to the Northwest, beyond the Domain. As she follows the star for many days she comes across a strange place. It feels spiritual and magical. Passing through this strange forest of mist, she found something she thought she'd never find. What that is, we do not know, though we hope it was a peaceful, happy ending.

## Trivia

* Nova is most devoted to the Dawnguardian goddess Gaho, and fears the god Pajackok. She was not much for worshipping her father's goddess, Icadorityl.
* Nova officially hates Spring - she has terrible pollen allergies and hates losing her fluffy winter coat.

## Quotes

* "Nova, listen to your heart. Let it guide you, it whispers, so listen closely..." (Nahimana's last words to Nova, *Nahi Exit*)
