Appearance

Personality

---

A sleepy-seeming wolf that always tries to stay out of the way. Tense and neurotic, he never seems to let his guard down no matter how heavy his eyes feel. The paranoia is strong with this one. He tends to vilify everything around him, including himself. Arguably high on the sociopathic spectrum, this docile-seeming wolf uses and steals from those around him. There's a methodology to his madness, an awareness and empathy that surly are the fault to what he has become. An intelligent monster that never misses a beat. Whatever benefits him he wants. In a way you could even describe him as a kleptomaniac. If someone has a shiny rock, then he wants that shiny rock because he believes they will throw it at his head and kill him. This means he is often on the 'kill them/react before they kill me' boat with strangers and new situations. In general it means he's likely to jump to conclusions. But to balance this out he tends to try to think of every possible outcome and is always prepared in general. Ironically he himself is his biggest enemy and often he sets himself up for failure while trying to control/pacify everyone else around him. Due to all the quick thinking he does, his speech seems to be quite quick and cluttered too. Seems to be shy and a bit of downer when communicating.

History

Achille was an extremely sensitive pup. He felt too much, he thought too much. He trusted without doubt. And so it shocked him, devastated him when he was first lied and trick to. It was a simple deceit. He asked a pup if they wanted to play but they said they were busy at their. Achille soon saw them in the field playing with a different pup. So simple, yet it hurt in a way Achille could not describe. It scared him in a way he could not describe either. Now he didn't go full unhinged just from that but it created the voice in his head, always mouthing "what if?" whenever he was told something. Gave him the gift to doubt.

Socializing can be a complicated nature, and Achille found himself starting to not get along with the other pups around the half year point of his life. He was scrawnier than the others, more timid, and usually just hung around, wanting to be with others but not needing the words that so many did. He was not superficial, and that made him an outcast. He became a victim of bullying and heckling. All day every day. And day by the day it would grow only crueler. He had to grow smart, predict their movements, behaviors, everything, so that he could avoid or turn their attempts around and at themselves instead. If he made one of them a scapegoat for the others to bully then he was safe. This mentality carried itself with him as he continued to grow. To make others a scapegoat, to use them as stepping stones for his own sake.

As the years went by he adapted for the sake of power and security. But every time he went up a rank or did good, the happy feeling would fade. It was not enough. Something bad would come soon. And when something didn't, he looked for trouble himself, something to confirm his feelings even if it meant he needed to inflict the pain onto himself. It is no wonder he fell from grace. He had a plan to poison the whole pack, to take them down with him with some poisonous herbs he planned to put in the next feast. But being his own worst enemy, he panicked one morning as a wolf got near his den and ate the herbs to die instantly before the wolf got near him. Fearing they wanted to kill him, he set up a subterfuge of his own demise, not being able to imagine the torture they wanted to put him through. Ironically it was one of his former bullies dropping by to apologize for all the torment he caused Achille.

Now Achille has woken up in the world of Canis.
