DotW|Edythe Application

Name: Edythe
Meaning: Spoil of war
Age: Adult

Gender: Female

Height: 34"
Weight: 100lbs

Build: Tall and toned like her father, with small paws and a long thick tail as well as long legs; her fur is wiry, but Edythe is constantly grooming it to keep it silky looking and soft. Her profile is heavily marked by a dent in her muzzle near the slope of her skull, giving her a mature air and a prominent ending to her almost gnarly features.
Health: Due to heavy inbreeding within the Highbloods in Highvalley, the female carries a condition known as having a low pain threshold, meaning her nerve endings are very sensitive to any external stimuli, expressing most of them as pain.
Voice: [link]  Powerful, metzo-sopranno tonality with a slight raspy undertone; she is loud and appears to be extremely secure with her words. (For a softer example of her voice, for example when not mad or motivating, look here:www.youtube.com/watch?v=6u3_Er…))
Theme song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=afZ6pD…
Mannerisms: The she-wolf usually carries a gentle and warm smile on her muzzle, with equally soft looking eyes. She doesn't use her face for expression often, usually relying on her voice and the rest of her body. She carries herself with elegance, soft in her steps and movement, as if she were gliding; nobody would dare doubt she belongs to Highblood.

Scent: Fresh and cold, like peppermint and snow.

Territory: Fellfang (Previously Highvalley, now disbanded)
Family: Aragon (Mate), Rune (father), Eadric (Half-uncle), Rodwen (Half-cousin), HALF HIGHVALLEY TO BE ADDED

Rank: Brandr Witchdoctor

Insecure: Considering the high importance of beauty and pedigree within her pack, Edythe has always been doubtful of her own physique; unlike the ideal of feminine beauty, her fur is somewhat wiry and her muzzle isn't as delicate as her fellow family members'. From the beginning, the female has been insecure regarding lots of her physical aspects. The questions regarding her lack of a mate this late into her life only pushes her own uncertainty further; she doesn't want betrothal, but the reason as to why others enjoy sticking their noses in her and Rune's business pokes at her insecurity.

Diplomatic: The she-wolf has a natural talent with words and emotion reading, making it easy for her to carry out a conversation with an objective in an efficient manner, keeping her voice even and her head cool. Edythe can converse and discuss while making sure nobody gets hurt; unless what she wishes is precisely that.

Cynical: 'believing that people are motivated by self-interest; distrustful of human sincerity or integrity.' She doubts everyone's intentions, and as a direct cause she rarely shows others her vulnerabilities, ignoring her own troubles amongst people in fear of getting hurt by the egotistic nature that hunts all wolves, carrying herself with fake security and trust. Furthermore, Edythe doesn't really believe something like 'true love' might exist, not in the romantic way at least; which gives her a tremendously pessimistic view on others and takes away any sort of hope of finding someone she will be able to fully trust and devote herself to.

Intellectual: One of the things the female likes the most is thinking; a fascinating hobby and a worthy activity of a lady, Brynn has always enjoyed learning. This particular characteristic is certainly one of the things that drove Edythe into being a Meister, having the possibility to teach and acquire knowledge on her pack; her interest in information and thought has allowed the she-wolf to develop a very high level of intelligence, capable of quick learning and effective applying of skills and knowledge.

Distant/Reserved: Probably because of her low view on morality, Edythe will much rather swallow down her troubles before voicing them to others; she considers vulnerabilities can be used as weapons against you, and therefor she rarely speaks about herself. Furthermore, she gives off that uptight image, with her attitude and strength.

Motherly/Protective: Perhaps because she knows going through labour would be too much to bare with her condition, and therefor she won't be able to have puppies without excruciating pain, or due to her empathic nature, Edythe is tremendously protective of those in pain or suffering, specially if they are young wolves. Soft-spoken and welcoming to youngsters regardless of their status, the female has a completely different face, genuine and caring, when surrounded by the vulnerable and innocent

Brave: Whenever the she-wolf does have something she wants to voice and make clear, she will not doubt to do so, even sometimes recurring to her oponent/listener's emotional wounds or past as a weapon to convince. Also, if danger strikes, Edythe will easily throw her neck in the middle, in order to protect those she cares for. Her courage is unwavering, never scared of voicing her opinion on an issue, since those she does not consider a vulnerability.

Judgemental: Due to her self-sufficent and self-exigent nature, Edythe expects everyone to push themselves into being the best person they can be and meet all of the high standards she has set for herself; this has lead the she-wolf to judge easily, forgetting everyone has a different way of solving problems and facing them.

Conformist: Edythe knows what she wants very clearly, and her values follow one straight line; but if another wolf possessing a higher rank, or an equal orders something, the female will comply, even against her will; used to pain and angst, the she-wolf can now grow accustomed to sadness or anger, eventually growing numb and getting through with whatever she has been ordered, swallowing down suffering like water. Something must bother Edythe tremendously for her to actually voice a negative opinion or complain about it. 

Loud: The female has a naturally strong voice and loud demeanour, and she speaks with a very powerful volume constantly, even having a hard time with whispering; it never gets loud enough for it to be actually painful or uncomfortable to hear, but she can come off as slightly supercilious.

Independent: She doesn't need anyone's help, or so Edythe likes to tell herself; making use of her ability with words and intellectual power, she will do everything on her own unless help is absolutely necessary. Extremely self-sufficent, everything she needs she can get for herself.

Artificial: Edythe wears a constant mask designed with a smile, pretending to be secure with herself and comfortable with her decisions, effectively hiding her physical insecurities and doubts.

Pre-Group History: 
Upon Rune and Alora's mating, Edythe came into the world beside her brother Hadwyn; both parents loved their children dearly, and from an early age they both received Highvalley's doctrine through their father's careful and kind teachings. Slowly, as she grew up, Edythe began to notice the lack of affection her parents had towards eachother; their discussions were always present in her childhood, first subtle and almost whispered, to later become heated and violent encounters as time went by. The pup's image of love and what it was, got heavily deformed by the couple's relationship. The bitter idea that true love is impossible surfaced within her at an early age, meaning Edythe skipped the phase of cheesy crushes and dreaming of marriage; for her, betrothal and marrying for love were almost the same thing.

During her puppyhood, the female started to discover her health condition. First, whilst playing with Hadwyn, puppy teeth and innocent fighting, a controlled bite by the male was received with a loud whine and a whimper; thinking it was simply a onetime reaction, the family allowed it to pass. It wouldn't be until her early juvenile years, that Edythe would begin to notice something was off; the gentle friction between her stomach and the ground whenever she would stand up from a laying position, caused a sharp sting on her skin. But no other wolves seemed affected by said sensation. Later on, Rune would give her self defence lessons, and during one of them, Edythe accidentally snapped her teeth around the air in an attempt to bite into her father's tail.
The pain in her jaw was absolutely excruciating.
That couldn't be normal.
Mortified and confused by her reaction, Rune was quick to usher his daughter towards the healer's den, only to further confirm there was nothing visibly wrong with her.
But now both Edythe and her father knew pain was a delicate thing when treating with her.

The female grew up healthy despite her low pain thresh hold, showing an immediate interest in intellectual activities, particularly around the task of being a Meister. As a young adult, while Edythe learnt within her pack and developed a strong personality, Hadwyn had joined her father in the task of Keeper. Battles raged on for Highvalley, and the she-wolf would spend them with the other females and the males who where not involved in fighting. She was well aware of the fact Eadric, who seemed to be a relative of hers, was taking many risks, which had driven the pack into conflict in the first place.
During one particular raid, while Edythe was rushed away to safety, Alora was tragically lost; grief striked both of her children, but Hadwyn had a duty to fulfill, meaning she was left alone to mourn while her remaining family members continued in battle. The following days grew cold and unwelcoming for Edythe, who couldn't find solace anywhere, not even within her thoughts. A few encounters later, presumably against Highvalley, Hadwyn lost his life to the enemy; both her brother and mother were now dead, leaving Edythe with only one wolf to call family.
Rune.
Despite the fact the she-wolf was never involved in the emotional conflict between Eadric and Rune, she still found herself unscathed by the King's death, actually feeling hopeful the next High King would bring prudence back to Highvalley, and with it peace. Rodwen seemed to be a clever individual, and Edythe was quick to deposit her faith in him.
