Name: Hephaestus Olympus

Gender: Male

Description:

Yumpy 1

Hephaestus' base color is a light brown, darkening into an earthy brown color that starts on his ears and forehead, and spreads down his head and back, bleeding down over his shoulders. His muzzle is much lighter, a pale tan that runs only halfway up before fading into the darker brown. A fiery copper hue runs in bright streaks the top of his hips to take over the color of his tail, tipping also the stiffer fur over his shoulders. This color also stains the front and sides of his ears. Beginning on either side of his muzzle, the fire streaks up, surrounding his eyes and continuing on slightly before fading. A dot of copper hovers over each fiery orange eye as well. Finally, all four of his legs look to have been dipped in molten copper, the color twisting its way up each leg.

Taking after his mother rather than his unknown father, he will grow to be tall and strong at 36 inches tall, and with the muscular body of a born warrior. His voice is surprisingly deep and brassy even for his size, a mellow rumble like the moving of a mountain.

Personality: Steady and steadfast is Hephaestus, the rock upon which all may depend on. Slow to emotion and very deliberate, though not slow-witted, Hephaestus prefers to think things through thoroughly before acting. Part of this comes from his own gentle nature - he worries constantly about hurting others, physically or emotionally, and takes great care to avoid this whenever he can. Slow to emotion though he is, once he finds it it consumes him.

He loves his family deeply, with every fiber of his being and would do anything to protect them. His mother and his siblings - including his adoptive siblings from Raisa - mean everything to him. Little can move him to anger or hasty action, but threatening his family is the fastest way to get this mountain of a wolf to move. Even as a small pup he would be the first to step between one of his siblings and a charging squirrel. And once his temper actually erupts, it is with the fiery fury of a volcano - hot and dangerous, but quick to cool down again.

As a pup he will be concerned about their lack of a proper father, but not for himself - he will worry about the effect on his siblings and his mother and he will, in his own puppyish way, try to step up and be the "man" of their immediate family. Like a mountain, Hephaestus can at times be immovably stubborn, particularly when it comes to the safety of his family. Generally pretty easy-going, once he sets his mind to something it is difficult to get him to change it.

Despite, or maybe because of, his deliberate nature, Hephaestus is an innovator. Intelligent, with a way of looking at every side of a problem that gives him a unique perspective on it, he is a master problem solver though he often hesitates to put forward a solution until he is completely certain of it.

He has a certain amount of anxiety about proving himself to his extended family. Being a child of tragedy, he feels himself to be tainted, crippled by the circumstances of his birth. It influences him to push himself beyond his limits for just a hint of their approval - especially his mother, who he worries for.
