Imperia was bored, bored of her life. Bored of not being able to kill free from rules. That was just who she was, someone who never held regards in other's lives, seeing them more like expendable objects, tools for her benefits and those from her family as well. She killed for a living, to feel alive. As far as she was aware no one deserved to be loved, life wasn't for that. Love had always been a fake concept, a ridiculous fantasy others seemed to dive in like idiots. It was disgusting, like testing the worst shit in this life. She would rather roll in feces than allowing that sickness to touch her.

Her tongue rolled free from its deadly prison. Out of those teeth made to tear and bring down prey, both wolves and ungulates alike. The brindle woman walked through the valley, searching for something, for everything that could entertain her. Something to kill and eat.

Oh but how lucky she was? Was that the smell of blood? Of suffering? How delightful. The Mendacium bastard approached, eyes of a predator seeking it's prey. And there a injured bear feasts on a corpse. A wolf. Well, it was time for punishment. The bear wasn't in one piece. It's back leg was tore deep, gashes and bone sprouted. Well, today's dinner would be bear. A grizzly bear.

What was with all of the stupid predators invading Elysium lands? Merrick smelled both the scent of bear and blood on the air and followed it straight away. It was his duty, right? Newly a member of Elysium, but a longtime Mendacium. The oldest Mendacium in the pack, of course. That made him special. His position demanded respect. He liked to make the younger wolves of the pack work while he sat back, but not when it came to killing. No... when it came to killing, he liked to be right in the thick of it.

The bear came into view and Merrick noted just what it was eating. A breeze brought the scent to dark nares and he didn't believe it was a member of the pack, so why were both wolf and bear here? No time to question. Merrick barely saw the woman as he rushed in and latched his teeth into the bears injured leg. The dire bastard whipped his head back and forth, tearing the wound open wider. He could hear the grind of bones as he did so. The bear roared in pain and swung around, swiping out with one big paw, but the brute was no longer there. He was circling the bear, his maw already covered in blood.

"Merrick Mendacium"

Ready to feast on the weak as always, a shadow rushed past her eye sight. A bearish wolf. At first she though it could be Poe. But this one just as big had different colorations. A Mendacium, familiar but nothing would ring bells in her head. Family but she wouldn't remember. Not like that family deserved any of her memory to begin with. They saw her as a burden and now she saw them as such a well. Being here from business nothing beyond that. Fraternal love didn't exit nor it was ever given. Jaws parted in anger from the memory, buy soon tucking it away as it wasn't the time to walk back to that trash.

She rushed to the fun. Doing so but going after the bears front. The bone breaking sound just fed her blood thirst, her hunger for fresh. As the bear distracted with her relative she would use it to approach to the opposite side..jaws completely open to now close down into the bears side of the head. Her spiked collar staving into its fresh. She would trash her head as well. Side to side like a shark. Feeling the fresh tear like paper.

The woman went for the bears face, so Merrick went for the legs. If she was dumb enough to take on the front end, let her do so. She may have recognized him, but he didn't recognize her. There were so many Mendacium's scattered about that there was no way to know all of them. He didn't need to know all of them either. For the most part, Merrick kept to himself. He had a small circle that he dealt with. Everyone else was kept at arms length.

With one leg taken out, the giant marbled brute moved to the opposite hind leg, grabbing the knee between his jaws and thrashing his head back and forth. He could feel the joint pop between his jaws and the bear roared in pain, spinning about to swipe at the man, but Merrick went along with the curling motion, never losing his hold on the knee. Once his paws touched down firmly again, he whipped his head back and forth once more.

"Merrick Mendacium"

Imperia wasnt really attacking without thinking, all she did was taking the bears attention, aiming to give her cousin a wind to attack. But not far from the fun either. Her jaws parted and closed over the bears fresh, didging its attempts to get her off him. But nothing, not even an elephant could take the monochrome wolf out of anything she wanted. As the beast turned to face the other attacker, Imperia went to try to target the spine. The bear was skinnier than a bear would be, not fatty enough in the back. And always seeking to split her victim's weaknesses she would start targeting that part. Biting as hard as she could. aiming to damage it in a way, trashing and letting the blood flow free, staining her coat even more. But she didnt flick, she didnt stop.
