overall appearance • Ri is a large wolf with a pelt of grays and white underbelly. She has thick fur that keeps her warm in the cold, and practically cooks her in the heat. She has a few scars, some slashes on her left cheek, on the side of her neck, and down her right flank. In addition, her left ear is a little torn. Her eyes are a quite literal piercing yellow, that seem to convey a lot of what emotion she shows. Seeing as how large she is, she can be accurately described as stocky in terms of her build.

fears • ri fears that she is a monster that will only hurt those she loves. she fears losing her loved ones to any source. she fears that she will lose it and kill her loved ones and their blood will be on her paws

overall personality • Ri, by nature, is rather suspicious of others. She does not trust easily and believes all strangers are going to be people with ill intentions, and that she cannot assume anything. She believes the world is cruel and the people who live in it are often times no better, and that she is a part of why the world is so twisted. She is constantly searching others' words and body language for signs that will reveal their personality, motivations, and what they might possibly do, she often speculates about her observations in her own mind. It's of little surprise that she is a rather reserved individual who does not enjoy sharing personal secrets or personal ills, as getting her to admit that she is hurt or upset to others is worse than pulling teeth.

overall history • Ri Adane was born in a litter of five, with her littermates Iaika, Sierelle, Rynselle, and Adjari. Her parents had a preexisting older litter that was one year older than them, though only two of the original four pups had survived: Kiris and Jisari. Kitari had succumbed to disease, and Aeryn was killed in a hunting accident. Though, Jisari left their family a short time before Ri and her littermates were born, and no one knows where she went. So, Kiris remained as the sole older sibling model for his new younger siblings. Ri was born just before a harsh winter and Sierelle succumbed to the cold and froze to death. Rynselle wandered off and was never found. Just like the older brother they never knew, Iaika and Adjari both died to severe illness, leaving Ri as the sole survivor of her litter. This caused her parents to become rather fixated upon her survival, and constantly fussed over her and doted upon her... At the expense of her brother. They often forgot about Kiris, and Kiris was often abandoned to hunt alone, and attempt to teach himself about the ways of the world, given that his parents had completely lost interest in him. The only thing they seemed to ask of him now was that he watch over Ri when they could not. Kiris became bitter and resentful, though he didn't hate Ri. Mostly because Ri didn't care much about their parents and put Kiris on a pedestal, and adored and idolized him. She thought he was amazing and gave all the love she had to him. She aspired to be like him, and to make him proud one day. It helped soothe Kiris' hurt over being more or less abandoned by his parents. Though, their relationship was poisoned from the beginning, as no matter how Kiris was hurt and Ri was fine, their parents always flocked to her. Kiris had a tendency to not treat Ri well, despite his love for her. He put down her accomplishments under the guise of preventing arrogance. He taught her to conceal her problems and to be more reserved, under the assumption that it was unkind to make others worry. A great deal of Ri's personality was shaped under Kiris' "lessons." Though, Kiris would not be able to monopolize Ri's attention forever. Ri made friends with others her age that lived in the area, and she began to spend a little less time with Kiris in an effort to make friends. Her personality proved to be a little strong for some, however she managed to win two friends in the form of a dog named Ren and a hawk named Issai. They became friends, and Ri honestly hoped that the good times could last forever. It did not. Ri and Kiris came home one day to find their parents missing. Kiris forced Ri to help him search for them, and they did find them. With their throats torn out, presumably killed. They hadn't been there, so they couldn't know what had done this. Kiris had continued to force Ri to help him try and investigate, but it was in vain. They were still in the dark of little else than the fact that their parents were dead. Filled with rage, Kiris moved to try and mutilate the corpses, trying to vent all the frustrations he was unable to properly voice while his parents had been alive. Ri tried to stop him, and found herself locked in battle with Kiris. By this time, Ri was significantly older and bigger and able to fight against Kiris on equal ground more or less. Regardless, she did have to be more clever than Kiris to protect herself. She did not want to fight, Kiris seemed like he was fighting with the intent to kill. Ri wasn't sure exactly what happened, but she found herself the one who lived. Kiris lay at her paws, having died from blood loss. Ri suddenly had to live with the fact that she hadn't been there to save her parents, and she had quite literally killed her own brother. Ri washed in a nearby river and never spoke of the incident again. She didn't breathe a word, and everyone who knew of her family assumed the same thing that killed her parents murdered her brother as well. Ri didn't know how to speak up otherwise. Except... Someone did recognize there was a lie. Issai suspected and confronted Ri. The confrontation escalated and Ri found herself in the terrible position of having blinded her friend. He stormed off blind, and then never talked to Ri again. She correctly assumed he hated her. Ri remained friends with Ren for a time.... It was awkward and Ren drifted away. A friend's parents offered for Ri to stay with them, worried as to Ri's mental state. Ri didn't have the heart to fight much. She stayed with them. But then those two kind souls who took her in after repeated tragedies, they died defending her, their adoptive son, and their newborn biological son. Ri was having serious problems her own sense of self-worth which had been dangerously low to start with, and was plummeting with every loss of a loved one. She tried to help her friend to raise the child of the ones she'd almost come to think of as a secondary set of parents, before she lost heart. She left without warning one day and never returned. She hasn't been much of the same since she left home.
