Name: Seran
Gender: Female
Age: 600 Years old
Breed: Soul Wolf
Job: Spirit GuardianJob Description: As a soul Guardian, it is her job to guide and lead souls until they chose to depart from this world. She has friends and even a mother to help her with this, however it is her Job alone to figure out which souls will go where and when they will go.
Markings:
Iallacha Fairy (Fairy Laces): The lace-like markings on her leg represent her roghnaithe cosán (chosen path), however as her true path lead the other way, they will darken and dim. Should she chose an chonair an dorchadais (the path of darkness), they will fade to nothing.
Iarrthóirí Soul (soul seekers): The dots on her forehead glow when a soul is near and this helps her choose wether to guide the soul or to let it drift to the Flaitheas seo chugainn (next realm).
Personality-
She is one that you can become friends with, and despite some wolves' opinion, she is one of the friendliest ones in the pack. This does not mean, however, that she is a pushover. If you try to force her to do something, you will be met with tooth and nail. However. deep down she is a softy that is the perfect nanny for pups. She is fiercely protective, and no harm will come to her charges.
"Laonna agus teaghlaigh a thagann sa chéad" is a saying she lives by most of her life, its literal meaning is "Pups and family come first." In her irish heritage, there is another saying however, "Is féidir le Love mairfidh gach triail, agus ní féidir ach ngrá leat a dhéanamh i gcrích go fírinneach." or "Love can endure all trials, and only love can make you truly complete." She believes in this saying, and lets it guide her in her life.
She believes in the powers of the moon, and legends of old magic, and sometimes, wishes she could use them. Sometimes she thinks she sees the fey but she is not sure. She does have some ties to the old magic through her family, but she does not understand how to use that magic, and cannot harness it.
She has been betrayed once before and though she has a light side, she also has a darker side. The beast within her that yearns to be free, and if shes is near death the darker side may come out. Despite this, she always sees the light side of things, and will allways try her best.
She dislikes humans and is glad her pack is not located on the edge of the untouched land like most. She does not want to face one and if one does wander into their pack-lands, which almost never happens, they quickly wander out again. She always tries to be her own person, however, and does not to be told of how she should be.
She always tries to be respectful even if the person who is trying to gain that respect does not deserve it. She is fair to all howeverer and tries her best in all endeavorers. She is trustworthy and that is perhaps one of her most defining characteristics. She can be a bit awkward and even a little shy at first but then she will become more open.
She loves everything that is alive because her job has her surrounded by death, and she struggles to hold onto life. She was a normal wolf at one time and her death had been hard on her.
She found herself enamored with the young small fox spirit, Inari, and decided to become like a mother figure to her, though they were not related by species. She cares greatly for the little fox, and it is when she is in danger that Seran is most likely to fight.
Likes:
Ara is her best friend in the pack, and she loves her very much and would do anything for her. Ara is a true friend, and would stand by her through thick and thin. These two are usually inseparable, and where you find Ara, you can usually find Seran. Ara has always called Seran 'cara maith " or a good friend.
The old magic is a big liking for her because she truly wants to understand it yet she cannot. She has the ability to control it, if she could harness that power, yet, that eludes her. She can see the fey however and this brings her great joy and sometimes great sorrow as well.
The moon has always been a source of happiness for her, and often it has guided her in many of her endeavores. She calls it, 'shining draíochta', or shining magic, and in fact believes this is where most magic comes from.
Life is important to her because she is alway surrounded by death.
Dislikes:
Humans are the main thing that she dislikes, and she tends to try to stay away from them. Luckily for her, the pack is in the center of the untouched lands, and not many humans come there. If they do, they sometimes quickly wander out again.
She really dislikes her position as a guardian, but this is the fate that the shaman of her pack bestowed upon her. The reason she dislikes it so much is because it could possibly put her in direct contact with humans, although, that is very unlikely. The only thing she does like about being a guardian is that it lets her be in contact with others, and possibly make more friends.
Her inability to harness her powers is one of the things she most dislikes. She does not like it because it means that she had to become a guardian instead of a shaman like she origanallly wanted. She can see the fey, but she cannot harness the power within them.
Song:
Citizen Soldiers- I thought this song perfectly, showed her role in the world, and with her job. She is a soldier of a different kind, a kind of guardian.
