Zephyr

Name: Zephyr
  [b]Gender:[/b]* Male
  [b]Rank:[/b]*alpha/protector
  [b]Species:[/b]* Northern Rocky Mountains wolf

  [b]Personality:[/b]*Zephyr has always been a happy-go-lucky and goofy wolf, loving to play even as he got older and grew up. Even so, he was an extremely intelligent and well-built wolf. He'd always been the leader type, and was known for being courageous. Even though he'd never really had a father figure around, he was a very respectful, loyal, and gentlemanly wolf. He's very protective and fatherly, something that comes in good use when you're an alpha. Zephyr is also very optimistic, always trying to cheer others up as well as appreciating the small things. He keeps himself in good balance, both physically and mentally.

  [b]Appearance:[/b]* Zephyr has long, muscular legs, and a well-built but also lean frame. His fur is soft and messy; a beautiful crow black. Snowy white fur covered his belly and chest, under his tail, all four paws, muzzle, and both ears, as well as striped horizontally across his spine and colored his facial markings. His eyes were a stark, neon, grassy color, shining brightly with keen intelligence and pride. You can tell hes a kind wolf just by looking at him, since he's almost always smiling and has a bounce in his step. However, dont take his kindness for weakness, he also stands tall as a brave alpha.

  [b]History:[/b]* Zephyr's mother, Twilight, was forced into mating by a wolf named Chaser. So Zephyr simply says he doesn't have a father. Twilight raised him well on her own, and he absolutely loved his life. Right from the beginning, he'd been a fighter; he was the only pup of his litter to survive the harsh Winter. He grew up to be a loyal, strong, intelligent protector of the Shadowfax pack. When his mother got sick, the young wolf devoted his time to trying to make her better. When the betas and alphas decided to retire, Zephyr was named the new alpha of the Shadowfax pack, and was absolutely thrilled. His mother had never been so proud of him, but only a week or so later, the she-wolf died. Zephyr was heartbroken, but even more so to realize that he had few friends thanks to having given Twilight all his time. He often spent time with Syon, the former alpha and his sort of mentor. A few Springs after he'd become alpha, there was a great flood of the territory. Zephyr had to move those who survived into a low mountain cave, but a cougar pair picked them off one by one. He could do nothing to stop his pack from being picked apart and eventually those who were left disbanded. At first, Syon and a few others traveled with Zephyr; Including his mate Rinda and their pups. But either sickness, injury, or old age claimed them. The young alpha, his spirit shattered and heart broken, wandered around for a while before the loneliness drove him towards the closest pack to wherever he was.

  [b]Weaknesses:[/b]* Zephyr tends to follow his heart and let his emotions rule him at times, and that isnt always a good thing. He's quick to trust, and that too can be bad sometimes.
  [b]Strengths:[/b]* Zephyr has been through a lot in his life, so he's a very strong-willed, resilient wolf. Having been an alpha, he had to be wise and patient.
