Sanctuary Pack Wolves: Rathlow and Harvests Honey
Born in the ninth Autumn of The Sanctuary Pack
Mothers: Radun, Chews On Chicory
Rathlow
Personality: More like her reserved parents than her sweeter sister, Rathlow is cool-headed and tough. Or-- she tries to be. Rathlow seems to want her packmates to take her seriously, but she's a bit clumsy and awkward, and no one really takes her blustering to heart.
Naming Conventions: Environment. Pups in Radun's birth pack were named after an element of the place they were born, and given common-use nicknames derived from these. These nicknames follow shared conventions, passed down along matrilineal lines. Radun’s family share the “Ra” in their nickname. (Low Heather-> Rathlow)
Harvests Honey
Personality: An exceptionally sweet and loyal young wolf, Honey is, for the most part, very laid-back. She's content to let others act while she watches, and likes to sit and watch the world go by.
However, when pressed into action, she is single-minded in pursuit of her goals, and will dedicate herself to them with a ruthless determination-- and the same sweet, unruffled demeanor as always.
Naming Conventions: Wolves in Chicory’s birth pack were named for traits they have or feats they accomplish as they pass into adulthood, often involving a play on words or double-meaning.
She named Honey for her golden colouration, her sweet nature, and her willingness to undergo any hardship in pursuit of what she wants; like an animal enduring bee stings in order to get to a hive's honey.
She earns this name at her Rite ceremony, for her valor during the events of year ten. Prior to this, her packmates call her 'speckle' for her spotted coat, and this lingers as a term of endearment for years after.
