• Description

  Name: Amirr Ashfall
  
  Sex: Male
  
  Age: 17
  
  Hair Color/Style: The color of his hair is most like that of milk chocolate with a dark auburn tinge to it; not enough to make him appear a redhead, but enough to give his mane a dark red sheen like smouldering embers when viewed in the right light. He wears it pulled back into a ponytail the majority of the time to keep it out of the way, with the hair on the sides of his head put into thin braids in a line from his temple to the back of his ear. These braids frequently are decorated with the use of feathers, bright beads, or other shiny trinkets that pass his fancy. When not pulled back, his gently-wavy hair reaches about to the midpoint of his shoulder blades.
  
  Eye Color: Amirr has sharp, dark emerald eyes that stand out from his otherwise muted brown color palette.
  
  Skin Tone/Pattern: His skin is the color of fresh-brewed coffee that has been mixed with milk until it is a warm caramel brown. He has a smattering of spots across his back, shoulders, and hips, varying in size with the largest being no bigger than a dime. These spots are a few shades darker than the rest of his skin but not remarkably different in hue; although they are easily distinguishable up close, from a distance they are less noticeable. Because of the differing sizes of his freckles his ears and tails are a darker shade of mocha than the rest of his skin.
  
  Other Physical Details: Amirr is average sized for a male, with no remarkably distinguishing features aside from an oversized pair of ears by which he is easily embarrassed. Due to his profession as a hunter, he tends to wear a lot of animal skins, preferring to wear clothing that has a lot of pockets and straps to hold the various hunting weapons, tools, and other items that he frequently uses.
  
  Occupation: Amirr was raised as a hunter, specializing in larger game when the occasion calls for it, but since the largest demand is for smaller prey he is quite adept at catching the hares, rodents, fish, and other animals more popularly favored by his people. However, skilled he may be at hunting, he has made it plain to his close friends and family that the job bores him and he daydreams about being put on patrol. Like his Alpha before him, Amirr enjoys the solitude of the harsh rugged peaks. Any time a volunteer is needed for guard duty he happily throws his figurative hat in the ring for consideration, although his inexperience and lack of mental focus is often a detriment to his ability to perform the job well.
  
  Skills: Hunting, fishing, skinning, storytelling
  
  Personality: Amirr is an ambitious but awkward young man who has aspirations to follow in the footsteps of his much-admired Alpha. He daydreams constantly about what it would be like to repel dozens of frostmauls to protect his homeland and be lauded as the hero of his people. He desperately wants to bond with a Kyrka and one day become Alpha like Laylar, but he is all too aware of his insecurity and social akwardness; two traits that would not lend themselves well to someone in a leadership position. He enjoys solitude, both because of his slight social anxiety and because it gives him time to let his imagination run wild through daydreaming.
  
  Apart from his awkward social flaws, Amirr is a genuine, affectionate, and intelligent young man who learns quickly but suffers from a short attention span.
  
  Pets: Amirr has one pet, a female Tenki by the name of Squiggle. She is average sized for her species, with bright turquoise green scales splattered with darker green specks along her back and spine. Amirr has not had her long, as he discovered her one day when he was out hunting and came across the remains of a trampled Tenki nest; the work of an Alkaw, most likely. Her egg was the sole survivor of the carnage, so Amirr quickly picked it up and tucked it inside an inner pocket of his loose-fitting vest to keep its precious cargo warm. Within a couple of days the egg hatched and Amirr suddenly found himself occupied with the busy task of keeping such a young, tiny creature fed around the clock. However, as time passed and she learned how to hunt on her own, things calmed down and the two really began to bond. At present she is about a month old and is the apple of Amirr's eye. He takes her everywhere he goes and she happily rides either on his shoulder or in a specially-made pouch he always keeps slung across his chest.
