MENELAUS
"When the lights go up and the game is on,
Are you ready for me? 'Cause I'm ready for you."
Are you ready for me? 'Cause I'm ready for you."
this is me in the flesh,
NAME: Menelaus
NICKNAME(S): None
PRONUNCIATION: Men-uh-lay-us
POSITION: Free-roamer
taste the sky,
AGE: 3 years
GENDER: Male
BREED: Italian Wolf
HEIGHT: 30 inches
APPEARANCE:
Menelaus' whole body is covered in medium long length fur, the coloring a mixture of browns. On his lower legs, the rear section of his thighs, and his abdomen, the fur is a dark gray. His body is well built, light but muscled. His head and muzzle are slender and thin, yet well defined. His nose is black, and his teeth are a pearly white, his ears medium sized and erect. His eyes are a deep golden color, and his tail is both thick and long, held low. His gait is easy and quick, his head usually held high as if he is looking down on others. He struggles greatly with lowering his head into submission, or altering his gait into a more fearful pose, often refusing to do so. Although he is not as large as some other breeds, he is not too thin, his muscles well defined and his weight right where it should be.
thoughts that make me go insane,
PERSONALITY:
Menelaus has always been, from the very start, a feisty and "typical" brute. He is not one to shy away from a fight, and he is quite the flirt, having no shame in flexing and showing off around females. He is a stubborn, hardheaded animal, refusing to be swayed once his mind is set on something. Despite his brutish personality, he is a quick thinker and very intelligent, finding riddles and rhymes to be quite enjoyable. He has a temper, much like every other wolf, although his is very easily aroused. If you push him far enough, he will fly into fits of rage that are difficult for him to snap out of. He has no shame in doing whatever it takes to get what he wants, as he is very ambitious and determined. Despite his temper, Menelaus is passive aggressive. He will find sly ways to seek revenge, often taking his time in doing so. He sees himself as a fighter, a warrior, and he refuses to let anyone get in his way.
all over my shoulder,
FATHER: Xuthus
MOTHER: Thetis
SIBLINGS:Unnamed, Dia
HISTORY:
Xuthus and Thetis ruled their own small pack when they decided to try for offspring. Their first attempt was successful, and Thetis gave birth to three small pups - two males and one female. Unfortunately, one of the pups was stillborn, leaving only Menelaus and his sister, Dia. Regardless of the stillborn, Xuthus was extremely pleased to have a son. As the pups grew, he spent much of his time with Menelaus, teaching him to hunt and various other pack behaviors. Dia was often shunned, left to be taught things by her mother. When the pups reached a year of age, Menelaus was a flashy, brutish male while his sister was quiet and reserved. Feeling quite bad for her daughter, Thetis pulled Menelaus aside one day and requested that he leave the pack without a word to his father or sister so that Dia would have an oppurtunity to bloom. Despite their differences, Menelaus always had cared for Dia, so hesitantly, he agreed to be the one to leave, fearing that if Dia left, she would be killed or taken as a slave. Knowing that he himself was strong enough to last on his own, he slipped away one night without a word to either Dia or Xuthus, vowing to get as far away from Dia as possible simply to give her a chance.
