Name: Mercy
Age: 3 years
Gender: Female
Breed: Maned wolf
Physical Description :
Mercy's ancestry ranges back to the maned wolves of South America, and just like these wild counterparts she shares their same structure and appearance. She stands at an impressive 88 cm at her shoulders, leaning toward the taller side of the scale for her kind. Despite her very tall stature, she is quite lean, even more so due to needing to adjust to life on her own and without the zoo to rely on for meals. Her body, in a nutshell, is long, lean, and lanky. Her legs resemble stilts, appearing twiggy and very thin, but despite their awkwardly long appearance she is capable of moving upon them quite gracefully. Her features are drawn into a definite point at her nose, though appear soft and round along their other angles. Her ears are tall and rounded, almost oval in shape, and are very sensitive to sound.
Her coloration is reminiscent of a fox. Her spindly legs are black in color, her forepaws appearing as if they are covered in tall black stockings while her hind paws are merely dark up to the ankle. Her base coat color is a ruddy red, almost orange, and is shaggy in appearance. Most of her tail is white, the red-orange fading out practically inches from the base. A ridge of black fur rests along her shoulders and up the back of her neck, much more noticeable when she draws her hackles up in defense. Her muzzle is black, though the underside of her neck and part of her chin are white, as well as the insides of her ears. Her eyes are a russet color, a red shade of brown that appears black in shadow and an almost bloody red in bright light.
Personality Description :
Mercy is the personification of the virtue "forgiveness." Because of this, her main characteristic is her endlessly long fuse that never seems to erupt into anger. Little slights as well as minor misunderstandings merely roll off of her shoulders and drift away without any word from her, and the most she is likely to exert due to an unkind or unwanted remark is a deep, soothing breath. Even once the offense is committed, she is quick to forgive and forget, possessing nothing in her nature that inclines her toward holding grudges and being always willing to let bygones be bygones. Never one for a fight and always willing to step into one to calm the tempers if she can, she can be a very peaceable character, longing to share her views with the world to ensure a safe, peaceful haven for each and every creature to live in.
That is not to say she has no reaction whatsoever to anger aside from turning the other cheek. It saddens her greatly that so many should choose to give in to the urge to fight and bicker and see so much fault in others when they could very easily dismiss their differences and live comfortably amongst each other. Even every now and again she finds herself passing some kind of judgment, still a mortal beneath her affinity toward her particular virtue, but careful consideration of herself and the other canine typically earn her a more understanding view. She longs to see the conflicts and battles of the present ended completely and the banners under which each pack fights for set aside. It is a heavy, steep task, but she has yet to lose faith in those she shares this earth with.
As for herself and her counterparts, her feelings are mixed. She greatly enjoys the company of the other virtues, sharing the same sort of belief system that each of them possesses. She understands them more readily and more easily than she does any other canines she has met, and though typically quiet and rather solitary she will actively seek out their company if it suits her to be around others. The sins are a different story. Their beliefs go so strongly against her own that she typically avoids them, unable to alter their set ways and finding that leaving them to their devices is the easiest method for her to get through their raucous ways. Her counterpart, the personification of "wrath," is an entirely different story. She longs to somehow help him through his troubles, let him see that it is possible to set aside the anger and irritation that so plagues him, but nothing so far has worked. He is her greatest challenge, and the affection that has grown for him only strengthens her resolve to try and balance his short fused temper with her unwavering patience.
History Description :
To be determined by Dino at a later date (possibly). May have something to do with a zoo.
