Description

:new: Nike was loooooooog overdue for a revamped app, and I figured I might as well bite the bullet and move her over to Damasca. </3 So many changes. It kills be to draw her not goofy and happy, but she's going through some THINGS. I always wanted her to grow up and develop a little more of her dad's pointy/flowy features. :P

NavNikeChib by Ramala
Chibi by Naviira

Name:
Nike ("Victory" in Greek, also the name of the Greek goddess of victory)
Age: Young Adult
Gender: Female
Height:  Adult height 34"
Weight: Adult weight 100lb
Build:  As a pup she is scrappy, tomboyish and androgynous with unruly fur with cowlicks in awkward places. She'll experience an awkward, gawky juvenile period with far too much leg for her body, but will eventually smooth out into more silky, smooth, adult body that takes after her parents.

Territory: Damasca
Family:
  • Parents: Rodwen (Father), Fia (Mother, deceased)
  • Siblings: Klaus (Brother), Vladimir (Brother), Sveta (Sister), Ava (Sister)
  • Extended Family: WIP
Rank: Omega

Former Beta Seeker (Captain) Of Highvalley

Personality:

Positive:
Optimistic|Understanding|Earnest|Diligent|Innocent
Negative: Prissy|Closed-Off|Naive|Entitled|Self-Critical

Androgynous: I hesitate to use the word "tomboy" because she doesn't go out of her way to act like a boy, nor does she look like one. Nike is naturally scrappy, and rough-and-tumble, and though she grows up to be a quite feminine-looking lady, doesn't like to be constrained by the expectations lain on her my the circumstances of her birth, or her gender.
Weight on Her Shoulders: Nike feels like she has a lot to prove. She is the youngest of her siblings, and the daughter of Highvalley's king. She feels like she needs to live up to her family's reputation, and needs to earn her father's attention. She loves Rodwen dearly, and worships the ground he walks on, which makes his naturally distant personality hard for her to swallow. She worries that she's not made of "the right stuff" to live up to her situation, but does her hardest to prove herself wrong.
Naturally Goofy: Nike tries very hard to appear like her dignified, graceful father and siblings, and has achieved some success as she's gotten older. However, at her core, she is still an awkward, goofy, pup-like soul that tends to come pouring out the second a hole is poked in her royal facade.
Diligent: Nike has the tendency to overdo everything she does. Ask her to catch a rabbit? She'll bring you back a deer. Ask her to study herbs? She'll try to become a master healer. While she underestimates her own abilities, her overcompensation often proves to others that she's far more competent than she thinks.
Conflicted: She was raised from an early age to see a clear distinction between Highbloods and Lowbloods, along with all that entails. As a pup, she hadn't really wrapped her head around it, but as she's gotten older, she has picked up that she's expected to share the views of her fellow Highbloods. Because of her sheltered upbringing, she's largely only associated with Highbloods and does have a bit of an "us vs. them" mentality- but she emotionally struggles with the concept. Why are we so different, after all? She's naturally curious about Lowbloods, outsiders, and those that Highvalley society looks down upon, but has as of right now kept herself mostly out of conflict's way.
Little Princess: While she doesn't like to lord her social standing over others, or to put on airs, she does live a pretty charmed life in Highvalley. Her perception of reality may not be the same as those who really need to live it every day. She is generally even-keeled, but can be thrown for a total loop if someone tells her something that doesn't fit what she thinks ought to be the case. She doesn't like to be challenged, and absolutely hates for her niavete to be called out, which may result in an explosion- though she'll mull the matter over for days and apologize if she realizes she was in the wrong.
Stubborn: Nike does what Nike wants. She has a very strong will, and the only one that can override it is Rodwen.
Modest-Minded: Nike does not think very highly of herself in the way that she does not tend to put herself on a pedestal over others. Though she's taught from a very early age to think otherwise, Nike can't shake the fact that all wolves are just wolves- the difference between Highblood and Lowblood means very little to her as a pup. BUT. This is actively trained out of her as she grows, but she struggles with this natural inclination.
Closed-Off: Life amongst Highbloods can be cut-throat, and as such- she doesn't let herself become vulnerable very often. She protects her soft little inside with a Highblood shell that she thinks Rodwen wants.
Beauty-Seeker: Perhaps a result of her awareness of her own albinistic defect, Nike has a gift for seeing beauty in inperfection. She's drawn to the wildflower with a crumpled petal over the perfect rose, and is the same way about wolves. She's sensitive about the little things in life, and finds beauty everywhere.
Understanding: While at first blush Nike can be guarded and naive, she thinks and feels deeply and will try to understand from another's perspective, even if she doesn't get along. She is intellectually honest, admits when she's wrong, and sensitive to others... though maybe not right away.

Pre-Group History:

She was born to Rodwen and Fia, the alpha pair of Highvalley. She was the only surviving pup of her litter, a birth which unfortunately proved to be fatal for her mother, Fia.  While she's too young to really understand what happened, she feels the absence of her mother and has an idealized vision of her in her mind. She's grown up in a fairly bubble-like existence amongst Highvalley Highbloods, and strives to earn and be worthy of her father's affection, and to prove herself as a worthy member of the family. As the youngest of her siblings, she was born after Klaus had fled the pack, so she never knew him and wonders about him often.
