Alignment: True Neutral

Appearance:
Kina is a creature of elegance and beauty, cloaked in a coat of white as stark as bleached bone. In the areas where her fur is thinnest the faintest hints of soft pink can be seen, peeking from underneath her fur. Her nose is a deeper, earthy pink that is prone to sunburn. If one looks closely they can see the faint koi patches that mark her lineage in warm silvers just a few shades lighter than her coat. Kina's eyes are striking, peering out from her face like new spring flowers peering out above the snow. Some might find her gaze eerie for while her irises are a soft, sugar pink her pupils are a ruby red distinctly reminiscent of blood.

Kina stands at a respectable 42" tall. While not the tallest or the brawniest of warriors she bears a frame that speaks of her strength and speed. She carries herself with a distinct grace and elegance on slender legs and delicate paws.


Personality:

Balanced • Empathetic • Responsible • Honorable • Introverted • Moody • Self-Confident

Kina is something of an emotional mix, often hovering in the gray regions between extremes. Kina is a balanced wolf. She is tempestuous yet calm, warm-hearted yet fierce, and courageous in the face of danger though not reckless. She believes in authority and respects it, but sometimes she is too stubborn to listen to it when she believes she's in the right.

Sociable and good-natured, Kina is a wolf who is eager to makes friends and hates disappointing others. Being empathetic she is sensitive to the emotions of those around her. Intuitively, she is able to see the world through a strangers eyes and sense their perspective. This does not necessarily mean she agrees with someone else's perspective or is sympathetic toward them. She does not necessarily feel pity for each individuals's predicament, particularly if they are a threat to her family, but she can understand what feelings might drive another's actions.

Kina is a responsible wolf and she will take responsibility for her actions whether they are good or bad. Once she takes ownership of a task or action she feels emotionally bound to follow through until the task is completed to the best of her ability. Should she fail to deliver, she automatically starts looking for ways to make it up. Excuses and rationalizations won't do, she needs to find a way to make restitution.

Loyal and protective, Kina is a wolf of honor. She has her own code of ethics and honor and she follows her code to the letter. She also expects others to follow a similar code and can get frustrated when they don't. Kina takes her word seriously and looks out for her fellows. However, she does have a mischievous streak. Kina doesn't believe much in lying, at least not outright, but she will twist her words if she deems it necessary to get what she wants or to have a little fun.

A hard shell masks a soft and turbulent center. Kina does her best to keep her emotions under control and not let others get under her skin, often appearing aloof and anti-social. She can come across as pessimistic and jaded though deep down she is a very caring wolf who will go out of her way to help those she cares for. Often this form of caring is displayed as tough love but those that are closest to her can view her deeply compassionate and sympathetic nature. Over all she comes across as quiet but she radiates with a soft, yet determined energy.

Kina is hard to pin down. Moody and some what high-strung her mood can change at the drop of a hat. Its hard to tell what might set her off or calm her down. As always she attempts to mask these changes but the truth is she is always struggling not to be ruled by her emotions.

Kina is intelligent and self-confident. She trusts in herself above anyone else and has faith in her strengths. She knows that she is able to take risks, able to meet new challenges and able to deliver on her promises. She has confidence not only in her abilities but also in her judgement. She knows she has a unique and distinct perspective of the world. And since no one sees exactly what she sees, she knows that no one can make her decisions for her.
