Appearance:
Naomi is 5'6" and weights 127 pounds. She has long brown hair that she usually keeps tied back in a bun, though, more often than not there are some stray clumps of hair that stick out. She keeps a few strands of hair loose on each side of her neck, and she makes sure to keep her bangs short enough so that they don't get in her eyes. Her eyes are a light, smokey grey eyes. Her eyes seem to pierce anyone, and anything, that she looked at.
Naomi looks, not only very thin, and lithe, but delicate, and extremely feminine. She is actually very strong, and fast, despite her delicate appearance. Naomi always wears black gloves that have the fingers cut off, and strong leather boots. Her shirts are normally dark colors, with spaghetti straps, and a mesh section that makes up the color of the shirt. She will usually wear shorts, but will sometimes wear pants. Her shorts are light, strong leather, and all her shorts and pants fit her loosely.
Personality:
Naomi is a little stand-offish with just about everyone. Though, for those extreme few that get to know her, she is a very kind, and loving soul with a wild side. She has no problem with blood, and some people think she's a little strange for that fact, but she just believes that one has to have a strong stomach, and have to know how to disassociate themselves when one hunts, and kills for a living.
Naomi is a very proud nineteen turn old, and has no shortage of confidence. Which means she believes she can do anything. One of her favorite sayings is, "A person can do anything they set their mind to." a saying she was taught by her father. She loves all animals, but has no problem being firm with them when it is needed. She is a very patient person when it comes to teaching people about what she does, as long as they don't get on her nerves that is.
Naomi does have a temper though, and can be very violent when provoked. Though, she has learned how to control her temper, at least, mostly. She can still be a force to be reckoned with when upset. She is very persistent, and will practically never give up. though, if one method doesn't work, she backs off, and tries to find another way that will. Some have called her cold, and calculating, others have said that she is evil and cunning.
Naomi can be these things at times, but that's just her nature. After all, a person has to learn how to think on their feet when their part of a family of hunters. She can actually be a very sweet, fun-loving girl who just needs someone strong enough to dig deep enough to put up with her until they break through. She is especially sweet when it comes to canines. After all, she was raised with them, and seems to have a special connection with the ones her family breeds.

Rank:
Wher Candidate
History:
Naomi's family have been hunters for generations upon generations. The same with her mother, only they were traders. The two of them had met when Naomi's father had went to sell some pelts that he had hunted himself. Some say that love at first site isn't real, but it was for these too. Her parents had been together for two turns when Talyake got pregnant with Naomi.
Naomi's father will be the first one to tell you that he had been hoping for a boy, but now he tells everyone that he wouldn't trade his daughter for all the sons in the world. Naomi's first babysitter was a large canine that would never let the young child out of her site, and even let Naomi take naps with her own pups. That's when her father realized that she was a natural born hunter.
Naomi's mother had always wanted her to become a trader, but she had never found any enjoyment in that. She was more happy whenever her father would take her with him, whenever he went hunting. She had a natural talent for the craft, and for working with the canines her father bred to help him hunt. So, when Naomi was seven years old, she was given permission to have the pick-of-the-litter.
Naomi looked over every litter their dogs had, and it wasn't until she was fourteen years old that she finally found the pup that she wanted. She called that pup Ayame, the reason for this is that her mother had bred with a wild canine, and Ayame actually had a very wild streak when she was a pup. The two of them had a bond almost immediately when Naomi picked up the young pup for the first time, and looked into her light blue eyes.
Naomi and Ayame have pretty much been inseparable since the day Ayame was old enough to leave her mother, and start training. The young canine had the same knack for hunting that her owner did, and the two of them had have many successful hunts in their short four turns together. Though, they mainly hunted small game, they have been learning to hunt larger animals, and have already caught a few medium sized, wild felines.
Naomi as allowed to pick another pup. Yet that wasn't until her father believed that she had trained Ayame well enough. She didn't have very many problems finding another pup to join her and Ayame. She picked another little female, and decided to name this one Akela. It didn't take Akela long to learn her place in the pack with Naomi and Ayame, but when she did, she also proved herself to be a very valuable asset during a hunt. She wasn't as quiet as Ayame, but she did prove to be more of a fierce hunter.
Naomi, her family, and their canines had stopped at Trelis to do some trading when a green rider had searched her out. She hadn't wanted to stay and become a candidate, but her parents had convinced her to stay, the deal breaker was that her parents, and the search rider, had said that she could keep Ayame with her, even if she impressed. Seeing as she didn't have to be separated from her best friend, she decided to stay, and is now waiting for her chance, on the sands.

Ayame

Eye - ah - May

4 Turns
Type:
Canine
Size:
Medium/Large (Husky/Wolf/Caravan Hound/Norwegian Elkhound/Saluki)
Personality:
Ayame is a very loyal canine, and will never leave Naomi's side. She will die trying to protect every single member of her pack, especially Naomi. She is quiet, especially when she's hunting. She has almost perfected the skill of being unheard when she's tracking. She is a very vicious canine when upset, and even though she may look extremely delicate, she has enough strength to take down a fully mature, wild, feline. Yet, she is very sweet, and gentle with just about everyone, even strangers.
Ayame is very intelligent, and very well trained. She knows, and will respond to just about any command given to her. Though, she does have a tendency to ignore those that aren't part of her pack. She is very patient, especially with young pups, or younger humans. She has a "soft mouth", as in, she can pick up a small animal in her mouth without biting into it, and damaging it. She can even be quite the flirt when it benefits her, or her owner.
Appearance:
Ayame will sometimes wear a soft, leather collar with her name stitched into it with bold, bright, colorful thread. She really only ever wears the collar for either decoration, or when her and Naomi are around people who have..."issues" with canines off leash. She is on the small side of the large canines, and on the large size of medium canines. She has very soft, silky, rich fur, that is white, with some brown.
Ayame has a brown spot on her face that looks like a brown mask that covers the top of her nose. She has very light, blue eyes, and has a brown spot that looks like a jacket on her back, and the top of her tail is brown, and so is her rump. She is very delicate, and feminine looking, but despite all of that, she is a very strong female. Her tail is very thick, and so is the fur around her neck, and chest. Her ears are small, and delicate, and give her a rabbit type look.

Name:
Akela
Pronunciation:
Ah - Key - La
Age:
3 Turns
Type:
Canine
Size:
Medium (Wolf/Norwegian Elkhound/Samoyed/Border Collie)
Personality:
Akela is a very stubborn female. Even though she'll listen to Naomi and Ayame, she pretty much ignore everyone else. She is very loyal, and actually really sweet. You just have to get past that tough exterior of hers. Unfortunately for most, this medium sized female is very protective, and has an attack first, ask questions later kind of personality. Though, she does behave herself, for the most part, when Naomi is around to keep her in line.
Akela is first, and foremost a hunter. The only things this female will let get in the way of a hunt, is Naomi and Ayame. The only reason she even listens to the older wolf, is because she has been put in her place many times. Just like her older canine companion, she is very sweet, and gentle with pups of all kinds. She is a very proud canine, but she isn't vain in the slightest. She is actually quite the opposite, and would rather roll around in the dirt, than take a bath.
Appearance:
Akela is a medium sized, female canine. Her tail, legs, and underside are mostly white. Her face, and back are mostly black. She has white spots above both of her eyes, and has a white stripe down the center of her nose. The front of her ears are also white. the bottom half of her chest is white, where as the top of her chest, and most of her neck are black.
Akela has very silky fur, no matter what she gets into, it is always silky soft. She keeps herself surprisingly clean, it doesn't really take much to keep her clean either. She normally has a very unpleasant look on her face, and usually holds herself with great pride, especially after a successful hunt. Her tail naturally has a curl to it, though, it only has a slight curl to it. She is very petite, and feminine looking, but she has enough strength to fight almost all of the males she meets, and wins.

Name:
Sarabi
Pronunciation:
Sah - Ra - Be
Age:
9 Months
Type:
Canine
Size:
Medium-Large
Personality:
Cool, calm, collected in most situations, proud and loving, doesn't like to bend for anyone, though she does so in stern, not physical, rebellion, courageous, does not show fear.
Appearance:
At first glance, this girl doesn't seem to be too feminine. With a heavy build, not to mention the fact she is the largest pup in the littler, one would assume she was actually male, if not for the pink ribbon around her neck. Though she will retain her heavy build through her life, she will grow into a graceful and obviously female canine. Even at her young age she moves with a grace and dignity that is beyond her years. She will be better at group hunting and tracking than at solo work.
