Cypress
Gender: Male
Age: 2 years
Breed: Saluki
Pack: Fawnstalker
Rank: Preyfinder
Personality:
Cypress is very rule-centric with just a touch of snobbery. He does not like making decisions, prefering to use the laws as a way to take fault out of his paws. Sitting behind a wall of rules also let's him use them as a backup if things go bad. Even though he is into following the abstract book to the letter, he's also young and makes a lot of mistakes. When he makes mistakes that break the rules, he immediately apologizes and does what he can to fix it.

Because of this, Cypress is very much into pack mentality. (Will talk more about this as I ease into the rp.)
Though he has always been thankful for the community of the pack, the loss of his parents at an age much too young for a pup to be alone has caused him to grow fiercely attached to his packmates and in particular those who are his friends. Close friends can do no wrong - but Cypress will only bend so far before ditching them if they're causing trouble.
Appearance: Tall, sturdy looking brown and white saluki mix. (See photo.) Wastes no time dropping into a more submissive position when necessary, but usually stands with his head held high. Alert posture and eyes, wakes for the enjoyment of another day and appreciates what he has. (See image)
Limited Traits: None
History: Was born into Fawnstalker. Both parents died when Cypress was a puppy, so he does his best to just stay out of trouble. Because he's always been part of a pack, the concept of being a stray is very foreign to him, and he has little interest in their workings. He's as sheltered from outside situations, at least as one can be in Fawnstalker: his worries lie in the threats and dangers of the forest, not the poisons and other remnants of mankind.
Visual Reference: (He is currently without collar.)
RP Example:
"Rose? Rose! You must be awake," a woman's voice called from the other end, shaking with enthusiasm and peppered with a slight accent she couldn't seem to lose. There was a squeak of the door handle as the woman peered inside, unable to help but see if her child was conscious for the occasion. Rose pretended to sleep as best as she could. Even from her bed she could feel the struggle her mother was experiencing - whether it was better to wake her daughter or to paw at the letter further, an opportunity to hold a small piece of magic just a little longer.
After what felt like hours, the door shut. Her mother had chosen to let Rose sleep, and was now likely reading the invitation and included list of paraphernalia as if it were her own. Rose, meanwhile, had decided that the most comfortable position was to bury her head under her pillow. Waking early to prevent her mother from immediately seeing the letter had been her intention, and she had failed to secure it. Instead of buying both herself and her sister a few hours to prepare for the incoming renewed magic-obsession, she had sentenced them both to a relentless barrage of mindless conversation.
