Ash

"My name is Haka-Mesuka."

Ash, grinned a bit as the woman gave her name, he wasn't sure why she still seemed hostile, but it seemed to be at least restrained enough to tolerate his presence a bit longer. The lot of them meandered to the library where almost immeadiatly Mesuka bolted to Yg'ntha the librarian, she asked about a few books, surprisingly all books he had read in the past couple years, all but the one about magic. What was it the she needed those for? When she mentioned the Haka, that was clue he wanted, a cultural study. Ash made his way to yg'ntha as well, after Mesuka went off to interrogate a few other poor readers, hopefully she didn't murder them in her mind like she had him.

"Hey Yg'ntha, I was hoping perhaps..?" He asked somewhat vaguely, a seemingly sly question.

"I k̸n͝oẁ wh҉at҉ you ͢s̨ee͢k̡,̛ ̵t͡h̢o̢u̡ǵh,̷ I do ͡n̢ot̷ qu̸ite̷ ąp̧pr͢ove ͢of ͜this ̀cou͢r̸se of̢ ̸st̶ud͞y͘,̧ ͡át͢ ̵l̛eas̕t͜ ҉n͡o͢t foŗ ҉y̷ou̸r kin͡d.͏" The sound pierced through Ash as always, this being was not one he liked to deal with, but it was the best way to find resources. The being lifted a tentacle and set a book bound in leather, no lettering adorning it. "̸T̨h͡e͞ w̴o̢l̢f slàyers ćode̸x,̧ ͞a͜ ̶hu̴nte͟rs͝ m͞an͝ual ̡t͞o͡ s͏l̵áy̷in̶g w̶eŗewolve͘s̸."̢ Ash put his hand up and tried to hush the being.

"Not so loud." he looked over to where the others were, they seemed out of earshot, "That Haka girl, she seems to dislike me, not in the, not going to sleep with you way, more the, cough during her soaps and she murders you way, and you aren't going to be the only one that disapproves of my study." Ash tucked the book under his jacket as the librarian wrote down his name in it's checkout log. Ash went over to the spot were Mesuka was, "Well Mesuka, not to interrupt, but I have to be going. I hope you find your study well." He gave a nod to the two she was speaking too and turned to leave.

Ash

Ash stood by finishing his own taco as the other lycan picked hers up and completely destroyed the thing in an attempt to eat it in a manner one could only compare to eating an oyster, but with the way she was glaring at him, he had no intention of trying to correct the behavior, regardless, it was none of his business how she ate it.

"You've prepared these well"

The young woman said while still glaring. Ash took a moment to really get a look of his roommates, the skeletal man was surely interesting, like nothing he had ever seen, but it was in fact the girl that stunned him, he recognized the outfit and garb she had, but not perfectly. During the past couple of years in this school all of Ash's time was consumed by researching the other packs, his ultimate goals staying as secretive as possible, however this woman seemed like she was from a Japanese pack, but not one he knew.

Cat got your tongue Ash? Can't decide whether to upset or not? Why don't you just try harder? Krasis chirped as he flew about the room, the bird always seemed to have an agenda, whatever he was doing, Ash had a feeling that only part of it was meant to help him. Obviously you missed something, some note or paper that talked about her pack, and if you missed hers, you missed more. You will fail at this rate. Krasis was right if he missed one who knows how many more he missed.

"With all my moving, I've had no time to study for first classes. I was wondering if... any of you would like to come to the library with me. At the very least, we could go sit in the school court-yard. I think it's a little more sunny outside than when I first arrived."

When the woman said this Ash knew that he needed to get more information, learn what he could, and he could tell that Krasis wanted him to as well, but the demeanor of this woman was venomous, it may be smarter of him to just leave her be at this point and do his own separate research, though she was going to the library. "Well I surely can't refuse such a kind offer now could I?" he said with the unease that anyone might feel as eye lasers burn away their skin, "It just so happens I had been needing to go to the library anyway. I didn't catch either of your names by the way." Ash gave an effort to hide the concern on his face, this other lycan has in one fell swoop made him both feel uncomfortable and remember painful memories, and if he wanted either of those to go away, he had work to do.

Ash

Ash began cooking a few minutes before Mortem arrived and was well into the process at this point, as a boy cooking was a way for him to really take in the world around him, he saw it as a joining force that brought together all the traits of his heritage. He could hear people behind him now but they were off on the other side of the room so he wasn't going to interrupt them at this point however the scent of fish, cilantro and lime would surely be reaching out to them, and surely they would be drawn to it, that is if they can smell. The thought crossed his mind at the last moment as he put final touches on his Baja fish tacos.

Ash turned around and set a platter of tacos on the center island counter that separated the living area from the kitchen, it was then that he finally got a good look at the roommates that had come in and were talking a bit. "Well, sorry to be a hair aloof as you all arrived, but I have lunch prepared if you are hungry. I'm Ash Jens By the way, the pleasures mine." he gave a short bow from behind the counter and picked up a taco from the platter and took a bite, the acidity of the lime mingling with the flavor of the mahi-mahi he had gotten earlier before arriving himself. Ash looked to Mortem, a honest to goodness skeleton, He set his taco down and said with a bit of fluster in his voice, "Hope that me making this didn't presume too much, if you have a....dietary restriction... I can totally work with that, just let me know." The tweeting of the canary around the room almost sounded like laughing and in his head Ash could hear Krasis, So nice of you Martha Stewart.

Ash

Ash stopped walking as he approached the academy again, this was a stupendous sight and he was happy to be back, all of his efforts and his learning are leading him to this year, he could feel it. Krasis poked his head from underneath the collar of Ash's sky blue silken shirt, and with a few tweets Ash was brought out from his reverie and back into the present, "Sorry about that Kas, I completely lost myself there a moment, can't help but think that this could be the last year before it all changes for me." He smiled warmly yet also a bit begrudgingly with the dire task that he spoke of now again sitting in the forefront of his mind. "Tell me again, who am I bunked with this year?" He spoke aloud as the small yellow canary fluttered about his head.

The tweeting was just done as a request by Ash, he loved the sound of bird songs, a trait he shared with his mother, but in his mind he was being given the rundown of the two companions he would have in his bunk, a lycan woman, and... a skeleton. As the canary gave the information and led Ash through the dorm rooms he couldn't help but ask, "Now, hold a moment, skeleton? I have heard of a lot of things but I won't lie, I don't know if I can say that the northern pack has any info on that." Ash mused on the ideas of his roommates, what they will look like, where they have been, what they have done, the stories others tell are almost as good as doing it if the one telling it really enjoyed it.

As Ash approached his dorm room and walked in, he immediately noticed the kitchen and he could already feel his stomach growl. Ash quickly moved to the bedroom that was assigned to him and walked in to find it quite cozy, he knew that magic had to be used to set the room up but he was grateful for the effort, it had hickory paneling which Ash ran his fingers over and let the scent of fine wood fill his nostrils, he looked to his bed and saw satin sheets as he requested, however he just heaved his bag to the bed and pulled it open, and out poured pans, and pots, and other various utensils. Krasis began to chirp and Ash could feel the birds displeasure, "Come on Kas, a wolf has to eat." he opened a small bag in his luggage, it was a cold storage bag, he pulled out a sizable amount of raw ingredients and headed back to the kitchen.

I want in on the thoughts I suppose.

My Hider

Ivy Riverstone:
"I get the feeling that it may take more than some turkish delight to warm this ice queen, never hurt though, they are good."

Varos Sulan:
"I have to say, I have heard a bit of your kind, I think the whole gold thing is odd but you know the first time I reeeeallly felt satin, was probably like you on gold yeah."

Ethra:
"Look I don't mean to sound rude or crass but, what do you eat?"

Haka-Mesuka:
"Well, color me impressed and a bit ashamed, I thought I had a strong running knowledge of the other packs, yet here you stand fresh from the woods. At least you can understand what mean when it comes to food and music. Right?"

Katarina Elza:
"Look you seem really great, but I am not letting you anywhere near my vintage scotch, sorry."

Raven Magnus:
"You are just a bundle sunshine aren't you? Things won't be dull around you, or at least, that's what I hope."

Mortem:
"Morty, let me ask you something, I understand you have no tongue or stomach, but to be fair no brain or heart either, so can you taste or not?"

Griffin:
"Now, this is a man that understands how to take a moment for himself and enjoy it."

Om:
"I appreciate the complement, but I don't think I can afford to feed you." *Eyes Om up and down*

Lola Dague:
"For some reason, you seem like you are looking at me a bit too hard, what do you see?"
Leonard Brand:
"You are in for a treat little buddy."

Gender: Male
Age: 25
Species: Lycanthrope

Appearance: Human

My Hider

Wolf

My Hider

In-Depth Appearance: in his human form, Ash stands six feet tall with medium length brown hair, he is of a moderate build. Ash has a faint scar that runs under his left eye, seemingly from a claw of some sort, his voice has a deeper tone and he speaks as though he is suppressing an accent.
His wolf form shares his scar on the eye, and is also of a quite moderate build, his fur is a dark and muddy brown with a light fawn underside and undercoat.
Brief Personality: Ash is a very happy person, he loves the life he has and has never once regretted being what he is. He has a love for taking everyday for everything it is worth, even if it means getting into some trouble to have the most fun. One of the biggest traits however is a love of cooking, with his enhanced senses he has found it to be an extremely pleasurable experience.

Ash is a middle ranked wolf in his pack, a skilled hunter and a skilled fighter, despite a lack of interest in the latter, his parents have decided that he needed to be given a little more instruction on how to lead. Ash has aspirations of glory hidden below his laissez faire attitude towards it, he sees himself as an alpha, and he has gone along with this idea of schooling only to further that goal. This is his greatest weakness however, his desire to rise up from his standing in his pack doesn't stop there, he has aspirations of consolidating more pack under him, he feels that he can, this can lead to outbursts when he is mocked over standing or if he feels that his goals are being impeded. Though when the time is right, he will not let anything stop him on his path to the top, for he takes his whole family with him.
More in-depth history:

My Hider

In Ash's past, he lived with his parents and older sister, as part of the north american pack, led by Germande St.Claire, this was no problem, his family was respected and they were liked by all, but that began to change as Ash's sister began to hang around a group of stray wolves, packless wanderers, and they began to fill her mind with anti-pack sentiment. Ash did all he could to convince her to stay, to ignore the strays and stick with the pack, while she tried to push him away from them. When the day came that Ash found the letter that his sister, Mina had left the pack to associate with the strays, he lost his temper, he went to Germande and begged him to help, to bring her back. Germande gave him a speech about the traditions of the pack and the laws against dealing with the strays, "If they leave the pack, the pack owes them nothing, they made their choice." these words are what he left him with, and only a few days later, Mina's body was found. Germande had her cremated, yet did not allow any of Ash's family see her beforehand, all those involved merely giving them sorrowful looks and telling them that what they saw they would never wish on a family.
To Ash this was nothing more than a failure in leadership, an old man, set in old ways, unable to see the injustices around them. This moment was when Ash chose his path, he chose that his life would be led to fix the injustice within this lycan world, first by taking the northern pack, then taking his vengeance on the strays, then stretching his reach to any pack that would destroy themselves under the guise of law, and tradition, but all of that required one thing first, the death of Germande St.Claire
