Age: 22
Character: Hige
Series: Wolf's Rain
Character Age: Appears about 19

Canon: Wolf's Rain is a pre-apocalyptic series with a twist: in an ailing world wrought with political strife and a climate crisis, humanity's last hope for salvation rests in the legend of Paradise, a realm which, with the aid of the Flower Maiden, only wolves can find. Unbeknownst to the world that believes wolves are long extinct, wolves take on the appearance of humans in order to survive in human societies. Four such wolves discover the Flower Maiden and begin their journey in search of Paradise, eluding persecutors, braving treacherous conditions and fighting crazed noblemen along the way.

Hige is an easy-going and slightly heavy-set beta wolf who follows along more out of intrigue than of belief in Paradise. Street-wise and rather opportunistic, he places worldly pleasures and tangible concerns above moral principles, always making sure to fill his stomach and take the time to chase a few skirts when he can (even though he often fails to impress). When packmates are in danger, however, his carefree attitude gives way to fierce loyalty and courage, and his acute sense of smell has more than once helped the pack out of a pinch.

Sample post:

Stray off the beaten path, Kiba said. Run the hidden pine trails of the forest, and if I walk the footsteps of a stranger I'll learn things I never knew. Well I sure learned a lot today! Like not to chase after the white bunnies because in this part of the world, bunny bites you. And not to take the cakes lying next those mean-looking trees, because food doesn't just sit there harmlessly waiting for you to stumble across it in a forest full of man-eating woodland creatures. Man if I knew this place would turn out to be like the Forest of Death I would've stayed on the main path with that girl. At least she was cute.

What? It's a trap? Are you talking about the pretty girl in the red parka? Because I know about that already. Thanks fish-face-- oh I'm sorry, Admiral Fish-face, but you might wanna work on warning people in advance. It's more helpful that way. Y'see, I already got a tip-off from the toucans that the path she pointed me down was full of rickrolls, and though I'm not sure what exactly a rickroll is, I can tell it's something bad from the way they exchanged disgusted looks. Though now I'm not sure if that's worse than getting lost in these woods. Huh? What do you mean, it's not that kind of trap? What other kind is there? She's the trap? Okay now you're just not making any sense.

Look, it's a campsite! Sure it's a bit cold right now for a summer camp, but it seems pretty lively. You've got some old, sick-looking guys over there playing football, and a couple of kids splashing around in the lake with Nessie. Huh, never knew Nessie was a squid. But where's the barbecue? All I can smell so far is old mustard and... is that formaldehyde? Let's see, we've also got paint thinner, sulfur, curdled milk... and someone had too much beans and cheese for breakfast. Aauugh.

Alright, I wasn't expecting fine dining, but c'mon. I'd even take the arm that fell off of that guy, if only it wasn't like a decade past the expiration date. Four-week rule, tops. Wait, what is that next to him... a leg of lamb? He must've dropped it on the way to the grill! Haha I knew this place would be worth my while! Don't mind if I help myse-- whoa, hey! What the hell is this?! Hey, let me out! ...A note? "Thank you for signing up. You're a bit late to the party, but you're free to stay for the next round. Until then, the furries will keep you company." What does all this mean? Did they get Kiba and the other guys too? Dammit, I gotta get us outta here!

...Yes, admiral, it's a trap. I can see that. Now will you help me out of this cage? I'm getting a bad feeling about the gorillas coming this way.
