Kale Ward | 27 | Hetero | Werewolves - Neutral | Bar Back @ La Fever | Tyler Hoechlin[/color][/font][/CENTER]
STRENGTHS
▬ Alpha; Not all Werewolves are made through a bite, some are born, and some are born leaders. This wolf was born an Alpha, a natural leader of his kind, and as such is more powerful than your average wolf in a pack. While silver will kill him like the rest, he can survive it for alot longer before he is forced back to being mortal, weak. There is a natural aura of command about him in the presence of other wolves, making it hard for them to ignore his suggestions when he forces the issue. By the power of an Alpha, it is possible for them to force other wolves to change, to kill.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
▬ Charamastic; He's good at talking, something he has had to do alot to save his own skin. Kale could convince an Apple that it's an Orange, given enough time. He's the kind of person that can either see or easily dig up your weaknesses and exploit them heavily to make you see things his way. He has a dominant personality, no is never an answer he will accept.
▬ Fighter; Kale is a fighter, one that never backs down from a challenge. Since he was a boy he has fought tooth and nail for everything he has. Being an orphaned child, his whole world revolved around self preservation, relying on nothing but his own two hands to make things happen for him, rather than waiting for opportunities that won't come.
▬ No Fear; Kale considers himself to be the absolute definition of fear, having never run into anything that has frightened him. With that said, he will not hesitate to fight anything or anyone regardless of size. There is always a sense of confidence about him, that adventurous spirit that compels him to take risks and enjoy them when he does.
▬ Fit; An understatement for him, Kale is your basic definition of sexy abs. He has a powerful athletic build, one that is built from a ton of hard work, on top of alot of fighting. Although he is covered in scarring, it only seems to add to the amazing picture his body already paints.
▬ Tracker; Kale is an excellent tracker, even without his abilities. He's always had a knack for determining where someone will go next, and can even easily determine physical attributes about a person by their imprints. He also has a sharp eye for details, noticing subtle things, like the imprint left behind based on the brand of the shoe, he should have been an P.I. instead of a bar back.
▬ Judge; The strangest trait he possesses, Kale has always been able to determine someones character. After only a short conversation, he knows whether he should avoid you or not, almost as if he has a sixth sense warning about someone. He can't tell for certain, but his intuition has steered him away from demons in some cases, and even saved him from those who hunt the supernatural.
WEAKNESSES
▬ Alone; Though he would never say it aloud, Kale is perhaps one of the lonliest people you will encounter. From growing up on his own in the streets, to living alone, to even being an Alpha without his own pack. He has spent his entire life on his own, with the desire to surround himself with those who understand him. However the fact that his expression makes him seem unapproachable, paired with his controlling attitude, makes that alot harder than it should be.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
▬ Silver & Wolfsbane; These two things, while they won't outright kill him, slow him down alot. If they are not removed from his blood stream or body within sixteen hours, he will die from poisoning. The only way to instantly kill him with silver would be a shot directly to the heart, a feat for a true marksmen.
▬ A Girl; There is this girl that he watches over, protecting her without ever actually showing himself to her. Feeling responsible for not saving the girls parents from a brutal wolf attack when he could have, he feels it is his job to make up for that by looking out for her when he can. This involves chasing off jerks, fixing things for her when she is gone, and randomly taking care of other odds and ends that he can do without ever having to meet face to face.
▬ Anger; There is a darkside to him, brought out by his rage when he cannot control it. Infuriated by being abandoned, by the way that the world treats him, he can be easily enraged if you say the right things. When he is angry nothing in the world matters but your death, making it easy to lead him into traps, things of that nature. If he was protecting someone before that point, they are now on their own.
▬ Love; He has no idea how this works, what it really means. To him love is someone who blindly obeys all your orders, especially when you feel you know best for them. Someone who can be there to watch your back, but won't argue. Growing up in the conditions he did, he has to truly experiance the real thing, so instead he simply prefers silent obediant consent.
▬ Stubborn; No one else's opinion or ideas matter to him. When he has made up his mind, only his word matters. The fact that there is no way to make him budge on his choices makes it hard to tolerate him as well, only brute strength, or a good beating can accomplish this. The problem with that being, he has yet to encounter something that has actually beaten him that badly, though he would find it exciting the day he did.
LIKES
▬ Parkour; Surprisingly, one of his favorite hobbies is parkour. Due to his supernatural strength and agility he is really good at this. Most mornings as a work out, he spends his time free running around the city, and by around the city it is almost quite literal. It's a big plus for him if he can find someone who can partially keep up, at least held to whatever their species potential might be.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
▬ Chance; A game of chance is something that highly appeals to Kale. It is one of the only things that puts him on equal footing with those around him, the only thing he can really even feel a thrill about other than fighting with something stronger than him. He is known to piss away all of his money in casino's, his skills with maintaining a healthy bank account lacking.
▬ High Ground; Almost always will you be able to find Kale haunting something that over looks the city. Anything with a view that puts him above everything else, a place for him to think, is his favorite place. By being above the city it also helps him seperate himself from the sounds, smells, and people around him. While he is not entirely anti-social, it does become overwhelming and tiresome after a while to him.
▬ Dog; Kale can been seen absolutely everywhere except work with this animal, a large husky/wolf dog that seems to follow him around faithfully. He treats this animal like it is another human being, the only one that means anything to him. At times he can be seen talking to it as if he expects it to understand him, yet there is some sort of sparkle in it's eyes that almost indicates that it does understand his more complex commands for some reason.
▬ Fighting; As said above, Kale is a fighter, but he doesn't only do it because he has to. He enjoys it when he encounters a chance for him to show off his skills, to pull out the claws. There aren't many reasons that make him do this lately, however when he does get to stretch his legs a bit, he does so with pride and happiness. He especially enjoys proving his dominance over and to other Werewolves in whatever new territory he enters.
DISLIKES
▬ Chatterbug; People who talk alot tend to rub him the wrong way, generally speaking. He is a guy of few words, even if he is good at talking when it matters. To him, usually, he sees it as if you're talking you're not thinking and most people tend to have that problem as they spew nonsense like air out of the lips. This mostly applies to women, the ones that tend to be airheaded and talk nonstop.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
▬ Demons; Over the years he has encountered several of these, often trying to stand in his way for some reason or another. He also hates the fact that they kill for little more than fun, even if they stand to gain nothing by hurting those around them except amusement. While he is in no way a good guy, he can't stand to see something so wasteful stand as one of the more dominante forms of life to inherit this world as of late.
▬ Vampires; He doesn't hesitate to show his "undying love" for these creatures by punching their face in as he sees them. He has an unexplainable dislike for them, the way they drain others blood, seduce them to their deaths. For some reason he was just conditioned to hate them, even the ones who seem to be trying to just do what he is doing; get by with the hand they were dealt.
▬ Baggage; Those people who tend to wear their emotions on their sleeves or expect him to care about their problems. These people he dislikes highly, as everyone has their own stuff to go through. He acts cold and distant to people most of the time, often pushing away when they burden him with things of this nature. He doesn't have the time of day for those who aren't like him or those who aren't like family to him.
▬ Cowardice and Indecision; People who can't make up their mind or are afraid to pursue what they want set him off. His philosophy in life is simple; if you want it, take it. Those who sit back on their butt and do nothing about what they want drive him insane. A close second are the people who cannot make up their minds, who want one thing one day and something entirely different the next. Indecision gets people killed, and it reminds him of his previous mistakes in life.
HISTORY
When he was born, he was abandonded, at least that was what he was lead to believe. The night he was born his parents were being chased down by hunters, his father being a wolf with very little control over himself. By the time they got the baby out and could manage to try and be quiet the father took a silver bullet to the brain. They would have taken the child too, if the mother hadn't thrown herself over it to protect it. They couldn't bring themselves to finish her off, so in turn, they let the child stay with her with the promise that they would be back for it when it was older.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
Terrified for the childs saftey, she did the only thing she could do, she gave him up. Put into the system at a young age, Kale quickly became a problem for every home he went to. He was a natural born leader, one who expected others to listen to him, to do what he wanted, even from a young age. After bouncing around from home to home, he decided that no one was ever going to let him have his own way, take him seriously like he felt they should. Ay the age of ten years old he fled his current home, taking to living on the streets like an urchin.
By the time he hit puberty he would understand what he was, the change, how the anger brought it about when he least expected. On his first full moon he would shift and kill two people. However there were others caught in the crossfire, others who did not die. In time these three wolves; Jules, Alex, and Vince all became his wolf pack. For the first time in his life he felt that he had some sort of home, somewhere he belonged. The four of them were invincible together, or so he thought as he lead them around the city doing whatever he pleased.
That was when they would finally catch up with him, the hunters. When they did, they were already dead set on doing one thing; killing. They started with Alex and Vince, two of his toughest soldiers. They wounded him slowly by working their way towards him, through his heart. They saved her for last, Jules, slowly killing her with liquified silver so that he had to watch her die from a far, he wasn't strong enough at the time to take them all, not with the numbers they came in. There was one thing about him they realized, one crucial detail that made him come after him in such numbers, come after him so hard.. he was an alpha.
Managing to give them the slip once more, Kale travelled across the country, going west until he hit the coast. It took him so long to make his way here, hiding, trying to make sure that he was untraceable. By the time he was twenty seven he was sure that he had lost their trail, that he could finally settle back down and have some sense of normalcy. However he was very alone in this world now, the pain of his friends deaths still ringing in his mind. His little journey however had changed him, turned him into a leader, and even took him off the reckless path that he had been set on as a teenager.
Trying his best to blend in in L.A, Kale has taken to doing jobs that make him forgettable to others. At the same time he has been searching for someone to reach out, to create a new pack. However at the same time, he knew somewhere deep down that he didn't deserve to have such a thing. And so the real story begins with this lonely anti-hero, fresh from the east coast with a new lease on life, trying to start over but making the same mistakes everytime he gets a chance to do so.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Hopefully he'll be able to shake things up with the Werewolf community. I made him an alpha specifically for the fact that there is one in the city already, Kale trying to form a new pack in the city at the same time could cause some tension and spark some fun plotting. With the confused wolves running around, I figured he would be able to come in and easily confuse them, trying to sway them to his side.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
