Despite her massive stature, she is actually fairly slender and in-shape. Her pelt, which had once been an unusual smokey gray, has matured and darkened into purely jet-black. She is solid in this color, able to blend in with the shadows and keep herself hidden at night. Her eyes, however, glow a brilliant peridot green. Since she is a Fighter, she wears many scars that she considers prizes for her battles, whether they resulted in triumph or defeat. She has a scar over her left eye that took her sight and left that eye with a milky film over the pupil and caused a bit of discharge to form in the tear duct. Occasionally one might see patches of fur that are longer in some places, due to foes ripping her fur out in intense fights. Zari is missing some whiskers and the ones she kept are bent out of shape, her muzzle littered with scars of all sorts. Her Alternate form, however, is significantly different in color, size, and shape. Zari has the power to Shape-Shift into what is called a White Bellied Sea Eagle. In this form, her wingspan is around 65 - 70cm. Her upper feathers and talons are a deep gray, while her head, neck, and under feathers are creamy white. She has a sharp, hooked beak that is around the same color as her talons, and she is missing a few feathers in the middle of her tail, leaving a gap between the two tips. As with her original form, Zari's Alternate has the same colored eyes with many of the same scars on her beak, with the scar still over her sightless left eye. If another happens to see Zari in her Alternate form -- which is highly possible, as she loves to shift -- they would know who it was. Word Count 342 AND YET IT ISN'T A SIN TO KILL THOSE YOU LOVE Power Type Appearance -- Shape-Shifting Power Branch "Transform into another animal" -- White Bellied Sea Eagle Personality Although she looks very menacing, Zari is actually a pacifist to a certain extent, and usually only fights if she feels her packmates are in danger. A strong believer in justice, Zari likes to be the one to settle things between others, being very talented in not getting involved herself. She also lives by a rule; treat others as you would like to be treated. This makes her a pretty decent listener, and she adores giving advice. She's a loyal wolf, and she always tries to keep her promises. That's what she puts off, at least. Inside her head, however, is a completely different story. She doesn't expect much out of her packmates, but she expects the impossible from herself. Because of this, she's always disappointed, and she's extremely hard on herself if she doesn't do things the way she had initially planned. She never likes to be alone, because when she is, she thinks. One would think this would be a good thing, but when Zari is alone, she thinks extreme "what-if"s, causing her to get a little freaked out and disappear for a night into a secret hiding place. She might not seem like it, but she's a very angry being. She can be very vengeful, despite everyone's view of her being a pacifist. Nobody knows this about Zari, though, because she's so good at playing pretend. Her past is a secret, and she's very defensive when someone asks her about it.

She was the youngest, last-born pup in her parents' second litter, so she couldn't stop the tension from rising within the small pack. She regrets being the runt of both the litters, and she blames herself for her siblings' deaths. Secret Ambitions Zari has always wanted to secretly get back at Fumo, her biological father, for the abuse and hurt he brought into the family. She's always wanted to kill him for turning her brother into a monster, and she secretly yearns to be a higher position in the pack. She would settle for Beta female, but she would just like to be able to have a pack to call her own one day. History Name Meanings - Asiya = Nurse - Fumo = Sword - Gasira = Brave - Kamili = Perfect - Ila = Birth mark, blemish - Safi = Pure - Zari = Beautiful Asiya was betrothed to Fumo before she had been born; Fumo's father, the Alpha of her old pack, wanted the Beta female. But since she had a mate and he had one also, he decided that the first born female pup of Asiya's mother's litter would be mate to the Alpha's sun, who had just reached the yearling age a few months before her birth. So as Fumo and Asiya grew, he claimed her as a mate against her will. After the death of his father, Fumo took his rightful place as the leader of his pack, killing his mother so she didn't over-rule him. One by one, the original pack wolves slipped off to form their own packs, as Fumo was a bloodthirsty Alpha who was drunk with power. Asiya was forced to stay, of course, because every time she tried to sneak away, Fumo always found her, and he kept an eye on her regularly. Soon Asiya was pregnant with their first litter of two. Both of them were girls, and they were named Gasira and Ila. As the two pups grew to be yearlings, Asiya found herself pregnant with her second litter. This time, she whelped three pups; two males and a female -- who was known as the runt of the litter. Fumo inspected the pups, completely discarding the female later known as Zari. He looked over the two males, and as he did, the older of the two put his tail between his legs and backed away, whimpering. The younger stood, eyes unable to open, and stiffed at his father's paws before attacking them. Amused by this, Fumo decided to name this pup Kamili. This was the only pup he named, dismissing the others as useless and unable to be "true wolves." The older, timid male was called Safi, as his heart was always pure. As the pups grew, Fumo and Kamili always trained together, leaving the rest of the "pack" to fend for themselves. One day after they had reached a little under two years, Safi and Zari were playing just outside of the den when Kamili appeared from the trees. He motioned for Safi to come with him, so Zari was not too far behind. But Kamili snarled, snapped at her muzzle with his scissor-like jaws, and told her to go back to the den. Startled, and a little intimidated by her older brother's size, Zari scampered back to the den with no further questions. Two sunrises passed, and the trio were nowhere to be seen. Starting to get worried, Zari searched for them. Unable to find her father, she started to search for her brother. Finally, she found him at dusk, laying on a rock and snoozing soundly. Poking him awake, Zari asked where Safi had been. Kamili got immediately offended, and growled at her that it was none of her business. Deciding to continue her search another time, Zari ventured deeper into the woods, looking for a sign. Sure enough, she found the tip of what appeared to be a wolf's ear. Sniffing at it, Zari concluded with dismay that Safi must have been murdered. As she went back to the den, she found that she had been gone for over three days. When she returned, she found the bodies of her mother and her sisters. Kamili and Fumo were nowhere to be seen. Zari knew that they were looking for her, so she fled. She would never return.
