Challenged for Ludicael (Ulrike)
02-24-2013, 08:50 PM
The wolf's muzzle touched lightly into the dirt as Rakshra sniffed. She was alone, searching along a vacant plain for a chance at a meal - something hard to come by lately. The entire area seemed to be evacuated of any other life, excluding the occasional scurrying rat. She needed to find food soon, already having gone several days without a significant meal and little to no sign of any pack of her kind.
Rakshra hadn't had very good luck with getting into the one pack she had seen lately; Glaciem. The alpha didn't seem to fond of her personality, which he had pointed out her traits were two-sided. She had obviously been told before by many travelers she had come to paths with. Though, she didn't mind being disliked by many. She was also loved by many.
As she continued to walk, her stiff muscles underneath showing through her skinny underfed self, she had heard sounds coming from a few miles ahead. The Battlefield. She had heard about challenges going on to claim the territory 'Ludicael' as their own. Rakshra started to walk in that direction, which soon turned into a canter and then a run. For once, her body didn't ache completely. She had actually gotten some rest over the past couple days, and she felt a lot more rested.
Rakshra skidded to a halt before the challenge going on. She knew challenges were still opened and her heart almost leaped out of her chest. A pack, where she was the leader. That's a life she would actually enjoy. She sat down and watched the opponents, picking up tricks and moves as they went on. When she had the chance, Rakshra would challenge the winner and hope for the best results. Rakshra wouldn't risk her life for this, but she would put all the effort she had in her into this.
{Lurking within the shadows... Dangerous and intelligent... Beautiful and brave... And Rakshra is her name...}
