APPEARANCE


(c) flabs-tm

Adonis, at first glance, is a mighty wolf. Not only in substantial size, but with the nobility which he carries himself with. Built for speed and endurance rather than brute power, Adonis’ sturdy frame is supported by strong and elongated legs; thick with sinewy muscle. Beneath a coat of raven splashed with a dull stone gray, is a strong wolf.His face is angular and masculine, cheek fluff flowing from his face in soft and plush trestles similar to the fur along his body. Adonis has three notable scars, the smallest being the small nick in his left ear. There is a crooked scar that runs across the width of his maw, and over his right leg runs two diagonal gashes.Adonis sports an intimidating and powerful figure, a tall and lanky brute coiled by honed muscle; an aged and skillful brethren hailing from his faraway homelands. His paws are wide and feathered with heavy fur, sitting underneath strong legs which support a body of power; his entire frame cut from the most expensive part of the mountain.Adonis' fur is thick and feathery around his neck and face, forming somewhat of a mane so to speak; cutting into a thin v down his barrel chest. His fur is dark, a deep raven or onyx in the sunlight, however it is parted and embroidered with a deep, copper red tinging at his backside and face.

Adonis holds a deep, driven devotion for the ones he gives his allegiances too, despite the weak support of his pup hood, and would go to great lengths to protect those under his wing. As a Warrior should, he behaves himself; and despite being known for his molten hot temper, the brute rarely allows it to flare, having trained himself into being perceived as a cool, calm, and collected individual, despite what others who’ve felt his anger may believe. Stoical, his guard is never let down, perhaps a result of the up-bringing he lived; unable to go without glancing over his shoulder, and the wolf seems to notice every movement in the forest. Whether that be the twitch of a branch as a bird takes off in flight, the skittish appearance of a young hare, or the tell tale signs of an unwanted intruder. It’s been seen, when training others in the past, Adonis forces others to go until he is satisfied with their work. He challenged the youth of new to reach their potential. Adonis himself, when taking on a task, will fully pour all of himself and his energy into it until it is completed.Adonis is affectionate, loyal, and protective to those who catch his eye. He will do whatever he can to please the dame he’s sweet on. Though affectionate to those he knows well enough, Adonis does not tend to stick around during pack meetings, absorbing the important things and leaving before dismissed. Along with this, it is extremely difficult for others to get to know him if they aren’t in close relation through blood. The brute happens to be extremely controlling and will take over any situation that calls for his presence and help, with the exception of not stepping on the toes of his superiors. Adonis is prone to furious outbursts when something is astray or someone has stepped out of line, exposing a dangerous and temperamental side of the wolf.When launched into his maddening fury, it is nearly impossible to calm the wolf down; he’ll behave irrationally, making horrible decisions and lashing out on others, even those he holds closest. Naturally, given his disposition, Adonis is hostile and unfriendly towards strangers. He is surely the last wolf that one would want to encounter on their lonely ventures, for he’s highly confrontational and quick to the attack.Adonis, all in all, is deeply troubled and haunted. His past is one that he never speaks of, and with a vulnerable soul, the wolf would rather lock up his emotions and hide behind a wall than confide in another.

HISTORY IN FLAMES

A son cut from charcoal and ash. The Raven’s Mercenary; raised within Noctalia, born from pureblood dire wolves, and hailing from a mighty lineage spanning back several generations. The Crownore family holds a significant reputation within the ranks of Noctalia, known for their strong wolves, loyal bonds, and voices as cold as the winter moons. As rumor tells it, the densely feathered ravens and crows that lurk the Noctalia territories favor the wolves born from this clan of dark-furred wolves. Once every few generations, a wild raven would choose one of the Crownore young as its master; and the selected pup will not only have a companion for life, but take on the pedestal as head of their clan.Adonis Crownore was born to Anastasious Crownore and Nicolette Crownore, two influential wolves within the Noctalia homeland. As the youngest son of Warchief Nicolette, high expectations were naturally placed onto the dark shoulders of the broody young pup. Most didn’t understand Adonis; not even his own siblings--he was plague on the Crownore family, and his older siblings looked at him with scorn, judging the deep sheen of copper and red that cursed his otherwise dark pelt. There was suspicion that a raven would choose a pup from this litter; but whom it chose, no one had expected.Adonis had been alone, but not truly; his mother watched him from afar, granting her young son supervision as he played atop the crop of rocky cliffs the Crownore clan called home. His littermates were tucked away within their warm shelter, snoozing away the bleak day. Adonis had found fun in pawing at pebbles and watching them skid down the steep, rocky slope whenever the black, feathered fiend appeared. A bratty thing, she was. Landing atop his back, the pup had reared backwards in shock whenever her talons tickled his skin, and fell; shoulder blades crashing into the snowy cliff. Adonis hadn’t gotten view of the smile that warmed Nicolette’s face, or the way her eyes brightened with excitement; instead, he only watched in terror as the raven landed atop his belly. Picking her way towards his chest, the raven perched herself atop him, and gazed into his eyes with her beady ones; head tilting to the side.Adonis had named her Ivori.Naturally, the youngest became a figure of envy amongst his siblings. His older siblings were green with disgust upon learning who the raven, Ivori, had chosen. Adonis, though young, was no fool; he saw the way they looked at them, he heard the way they whispered about him. At 8 months old, one wouldn’t expect to be so hated by their own family. But it was the normal that Adonis became accustomed to, and so instead of living as an outcast, he embraced it. The hate they had for him? He devoured it, it fueled him, and the wolf strove to amass his true potential.Adonis chose the path of a Warrior. With large paws to fill, Adonis wasted no time in molding himself in the image of his mother; a perfect cut stone, one of lethality and power. With time and age, it’s what he became. As a young wolf, Adonis had never been a fan of Barzilai. When the wolf betrayed his own blood and caused the slaughter of innocents, his hate for the wolf became a constant. Adonis grew up to fill the roles of one of Noctalia’s justices, maintaining law and order with an iron paw. Steady and methodical in his methods, it’s known to not cross the Raven’s Mercenary.Justice of Noctalia, Patriarch of Clan Crownore.
