Writing Prompt: Human or Dancer?
03-12-2014, 07:27 PM
We all have amazing wolves here on Alacritis, but I've been curious for some time about how these wolves would act if they were humans and part of Alacritis County in the upper peninsula of Michigan perhaps? This writing prompt is something I've done on another site and would like to bring here because you all are amazing! I would like to announce beforehand that given the creative-content of this thread, please be aware there may be mature themes and inappropriate language present.
I would like to challenge you to expand your views, exercise your writing skills, and think outside the box as the wolf you have always known is offered the chance to become apart of a very real, functioning, human society where actions from the other side of this board could very well influence the outcomes here...
001. Introductions
Alacritis county is made up of a few cities: Valhalla, Elysium, Glaciem, Ludicael, Olympus, Seracia, Tortuga... more seem to spring up by the day. Each of these cities seems to be run by a prominent family despite the democratic orders of the estate. Immigrants and tourists seem to help Alacritis' populace all-year-round, providing them with a means for outside resources and wealth, and it isn't uncommon for anyone to book a hotel room somewhere only to end up in the next city a few days later...
Overall, the county is thriving.
Please note, this is all just for fun; to start out, here is PROMPT #1. Introduce your wolf as a human to us, your readers, by writing something biographical. What is their name? Do they have a full name or any nicknames? What was it like when they were growing up? Do they have children? Where do they live, who do they live with, and what do they do for a living?
Ideas:

?owyn Dominique-Netonya is most like Miranda Otto.
Quote:The main questions are: Who are you, really, and where are you from? But, most importantly, and above all else, how does your character fit in?

Quote:?owyn "Alana" Dominique-Netonya
Alana - Ah-laan-ah - The meaning of the name Alana is harmony, stone, or noble and is derived from the Celtics.
Born nearly 22 years ago, Alana has had quite the troubled life. Her childhood was rough as her parents never wanted a daughter. Attending Sinister Falls Public School led to even worse matters. From a young age, everyone saw her as the trouble maker, the jester almost. Little did they know what was actually going on with her at home with her parents. Her parents were the main form of funding for the school and owners of Sinister Manor. An envious Alana sought to take the place as hers after her parents death. However, they wanted to pour everything into their son and her older brother, Angier. After constant abuse from her parents for outshining her brother as a child led her to running away from her home as a young teen, Alana came to be known as a very young and stupid girl who acted out of pure want rather than necessity. She never completed high school but always sought out a higher education.
A brilliant yet young girl was raised the hard way. Through this she got mixed in with the wrong crowd when she ran away. Orphans who got her into things like alcohol. She was lost and confused but everything seemed to change when a young lad caught her eyes. Birch Netonya. She met him when she was 20 years old and was instantly love struck. Her love for him managed to snap her out of the downward spiral she was headed on and into reality. She married him only 3 months after meeting him and regrets nothing. From a young age she had one love and one love only. Dancing. It was her passion to become a actress in a musical someday and she still strives to make that dream a reality. She also wanted to prove to her parents she was responsible and is trying to get her hands on a manor of her own to look after in order to do so.
Alana is a perfectly caring person to be around. She loves the nature scene and tends to stay out of cities. If she had her way, she would live in the woods where she could fend for herself all day. However, this does not work for her. She is trying to get her high school diploma while managing two jobs and trying to start a family with her husband. She feels like she needs to work her way up in the world and intends on visiting Alacritis Community College and then eventually getting enough credits for a degree in computer science and a minor in French.
My love for you burns eternal baby.
