Name: Niall Collins Gender: Male Age: 45 Rank: Alpha Male Spouse: Trade: Horse Breeder; Draft
Upright Appearance:
Niall is extremely tall, standing six feet seven and a half inches barefoot and weighs around 225 pounds though it is clearly all muscle. He is broad shouldered and has tattoos in various places across his body.
Canine Appearance:
In his lupine form Niall is on the higher end of the scale, his body ripples with muscle much like his human form. He stands just shy of being 50" tall at his shoulder and is around 8 and a half feet long, probably just a bit over that. He weighs in at around 210 pounds. His coat is thick and black with a touch of white mixed in along his underside, his eyes are a luminous gold.
Personality: Niall is loyal to a fault at times, he can definitely be a lover but is by far a fighter. He is rather stubborn but is open to listening to other peoples opinion. There is nothing he enjoys more than a good discussion about a pertinent topic. Niall is a gentle man at times but it is easy to see the beast that lurks within. Do not let his gentleness fool you for he does not shy from violence.
History: Niall was born to Keenan and Emelia Collins who ruled the pack before Niall. They were the perfect match, a so called 'Destined Pair'. Niall was the second born to the pair, the Second Heir of the Blue Ridge pack. His great, great grandparents before them started the pack, bringing over what remained of their pack after the hysteria in Europe, England to be exact. Niall's elder sister by two minutes, Aspen, was deemed Heir of the pack. Growing up with a twin sister was not something for the faint of heart. Both he and his sister were trained expediently to control their instincts and fight like they would be challenged the next day for their position. He was trained so if something were to happen to his sister he would also be prepared to take her place. Unfortunately, just after they turned 16 Aspen contracted ICED and died within just a few months, rather than the years it generally takes. Even though he was at risk for contracting the disease as he was directly related to her he refused to leave her side as her growth rate slowed and then stopped in mere months. Due to the slowed cell activity when she caught a cold it quickly turned into pneumonia and killed his twin and The Heir to the Blue Ridge Pack. It is without question that Niall is immune to ICED as his continued exposure would have killed him if he was able to contract the disease. When he was 35 his father Keenan stepped down as Alpha and retired with his wife to enjoy the remainder of their lives, he was 136 then. Just short of ten years after their retirement Niall's parents were killed by Hunters as they strolled through the woods in their upright forms. They were the beginning of a spree Niall was almost helpless to stop. For each hunter the pack tracked down and killed it seemed two more appeared and Niall was faced with a choice; remain and possibly die or eat his pride and flee for the mountains. He chose to flee.
Elize is not super tall as some of the other females in the pack are, she stands a mere five foot six with a lean and slender build. She is nearly all muscle and every bit of her body is cut and defined as if she worked out constantly. She weighs about 150 pounds in her upright form.
Canine Appearance:
Elize stands about 37" at the shoulder and is just a little over 7 feet long from her nose to the tip of her tail. She weighs right about 145 pounds.
Personality: Elize is rather outspoken sometimes but it comes from a well recognized source, her history. She is proud of her sheep and loves them nearly as much as she loves her pack. She can often be found lounging in her wolf form guarding her sheep, not much will get near them with her scent permeating their fleece. She raised both fleece and meat sheep and several varieties. She also processes their wool into usable products and dyes them with natural dyes for clothes to be made from them. She loves her profession and she can get rather excited about it. One simply should not ask Elize about her sheep and get a simple short answer, she will talk your leg off about them. Despite this Elize has little interest in anything else or anyone else the majority of the time.
History: Elize was born to Michael and Terra Vanzant, the alpha pair to a small pack in the south of France. Her pack was small only about 45 wolves strong as there is simply too much civilization there for a large pack like can occur in the Americas. As the heir of the pack Elize was treated like a princess though she wasn't exactly fond of it or the training and prestige associated with the title. She was happy with her life and at least okay with being the heir by the time she was 16. However, shortly after her 17th birthday things came crashing horribly down for Elize, she barely escaped with her life. A team of old school lycan hunters discovered them, someone in the pack had been caught and had ratted the rest of the pack out. No one but Elize survived and that was because the pack protected her until their last breaths. They escorted her to a ship with money and some goods and turned to face their attackers to prevent them from stopping the ship. When she reached the East Coast it took her nearly a year to find a pack that would take her. The Blue Ridge pack accepted her and she integrated herself carefully into the mix, adopting her parents old profession of raising sheep. Extra?: N/A
@Suzy Blue Yes there is plenty of room. Just make sure you both give the description of the Lycans in this roleplay a good read through. Thanks for coming in!
The roleplay will be moderately paced, I will try and post roughly every other day. I have three other dedicated players to the roleplay already that will be in. There are lots of ranks and trades open currently. If there isn't a character name by it then it is open.
Basic plot: The pack experienced a massive loss of life due to hunters in their previous home. They made the decision to move to a new location so there wouldn't be anymore lives lost. The pack purchased an out of business, bank repossessed, Bed & Breakfast that came with about a 1,000 acres and backs up to the Big Horn Mountain Range and National Park. There is electricity and running water on the property. We will begin after things have been fixed up and the pack is opening the business for the first time. There will be humans present that will be NPC that everyone can interact with. I will be introducing plot pushes through my characters and NPCs to keep the roleplay going.
Everyone is welcome just make sure you have time and can post about every other day. If you have any questions please ask, assume nothing because I probably have an answer for you.
Everyone can play these characters freely as needed within the IC.
