Profile of Ephemeral

Ephy's pelt is black overall with a ginger collar about his neck and ginger dancing down his sides. His eyes are a rich and intense amber in color that always seems to dance with a sheen of intense curiosity in them. He is tall and slim with no extra weight clinging to him. Despite this he is not sickly but remains healthy with a hefty appetite, his body simply doesn't pack on weight. And like his weight, he seems unable to pack on much muscle mass either. His fur is also thin which gives him an even leaner appearance, almost to the point of making him look malnourished. The ginger fur that makes up his collar, as well as other parts of his body, is a few inches longer than the black pelt that makes up the majority of his body.

Ephy is the sort to have never met a stranger in his short life. He seems to have the innate ability to make friends wherever he goes. He enjoys having a good time and just enjoying life. He is loyal to those whom he has made a connection with and will do whatever he can to help them out. He is always down to go on an adventure and often acts on a whim. He is one to lead with his heart rather than with his mind. He lets his passions take him where they might. He always seems to be full of energy and rarely tires. He is a dark boy with a heart of gold, an innocent he has yet to learn not to give his trust away so easily. Also, having been raised alone, he doesn't have the most sophisticated social abilities. Basic notions of conversation are usually lost on him, as well as the names to a number of the most trivial things.

Whom his father was Ephemeral couldn't even begin to say. The guy had never been present in his life and his mother never spoke of him. In fact his mother often got testy when he started to ask questions. So it was just his mother and himself growing up. He had no siblings and very few interactions with other wolves. His mother didn't seem to trust anyone, a trait which didn't rub off on Ephy. The boy had been sheltered by his mother whom doted upon him.

It was the loss of his mother that set him out on his own. He didn't have a pack to call his own and had no one to rely on but himself. It wasn't a complete tragedy since he knew how to survive, at least physically. It was more that he had lost his one and only companion. Illness had taken his mother, something she had been fighting with for months, and hadn't been entirely unexpected. Ephy did what he could to help her but they both knew it was all for naught.

His mother encouraged him to seek out others, not wanting her only child to be all alone in the world. He made a promise that he would but he would not leave her side while she was still around. It was only after her passing that he thought to try and find a new companion.
