OLD DESIGN. New design is below.
No collar or ID tattoo, but feh. Also, marking ref only. Her official ref is coming.
Personality-
Fel’s motivation is, first and foremost, in her stomach (Hence the paunch). She loves her food, and will very rarely let anything get in her way as far as it’s concerned. She is light-hearted and fun-loving, although will normally hold a grudge for the majority of her life. She has a very hard time trying to forgive others for wronging her, but at the same time she will never forget a kindness done to her.
She adores children of any species, and would be a very good mother. She also loves most humans, and not just because they’re the ones with the can openers (Although that is one of her reasons, though she would never admit it). However, she is somewhat lacking in the common sense department, relying mostly on her sense of logic, thus sometimes putting herself and others in danger. She also has exceedingly poor eyesight (Were she human she would be declared legally blind), so her nose’s power has increased to compensate (Although her eyesight is still a handicap). She recognises others mostly by scent or voice, and has an incredible memory for these things.
She is often nervous around new people, especially ones larger than herself. This is partly due to the scar on her chest (She has the habit of comparing larger dogs to bears - her poor eyesight s part of the reason for this). Despite this, Fel is fearless when on the hunt, and will dive in head first to tackle a bear or other large predator (This is partly due to a grudge against bears). The side of her chest with the scar is very sensitive to touch, and most touches there cause pain. Sometimes this can make running difficult, as the constant motion of her chest can be painful. Nevertheless, she enjoys running, and will usually only stop doing so if the pain is just too much. Her powers of endurance are exceptional, yet her speed is nothing to be proud of. In the water she isn’t much faster, but again her stamina is her saving grace (As is her love of swimming).
Strengths: Excellent sense of smell (Even for a dog), excellent memory, fierce loyalty, exceptional endurance.
Weaknesses: Incredibly poor eyesight, gluttony, sensitive chest, occasional pain from running, nervous around unknown larger dogs, difficulty in forgiving, slow-moving.
History-
Fel was the result of an accidental breeding between to Swedish bear dogs, hence her name, which means ‘Mistake’. She lived in Stockholm for the first six months of her life, and then was flown over to the States to begin her training as a bear dog. She spent most of her early years trying to rack down Inteus, to no avail. She now has her sights on the great mountain lion, and is not going to let anything stop her.
