AllianceDovett. AbilitiesHEALING - granted by Dovett - Kipawa's primary ability is the ability to heal himself and others. Of course, it's not a simple matter of 'touch and instant heal', it's a far harder procedure. To heal a creature, he must touch it with his nose, close his eyes and will the power from within. He must then allow it to pass from him into the other creature, mend the skin and bone and then return to him. This means that the only way for him to heal another is to take the injury on himself, albeit momentarily. He himself heals far faster than a normal creature, but not fast enough to heal mortal wounds. He can also heal diseases and illnesses, but these are much more complicated. So far in his life he has healed many minor cuts and sniffles, but only a couple of major wounds. The first was his father, when he got bitten by a shark. Kippy healed his father but spent the next few days in agony and the next few weeks recovering. The second was when his brother was poisoned by a sea snake. That was one of the most unpleasant things he had ever experienced.
HAUNTING VOICE - granted by Dovett - Kipawa's secondary ability is the ability to influence the emotions of others with different songs. This is an ability he inherited from his father, stemming from his magnificent singing voice. It's not an immediately obvious or useful ability and Kip doesn't even know it's an ability. He simply knows that when he sings, people tend to be swayed slightly by his voice. He just assumes he's a good singer, like his father was. If he sings a sad song, it can make others cry, if he sings a happy song, it can cheer them up. If he sings a rousing song, it might help on a hunt or in battle, to get the blood pumping so to speak. Maybe when he's much older, the effects might be more noticeable, but until then, he's happy just to sing his little heart out. Appearance If you were to see his front half, Kippy would be a rather unremarkable pale-coloured wolf. Apart from the slight blue sheen to his fur and those bright aqua eyes, his body shape looks very much like a large Gray Wolf. His ears are a little on the small side and his fore paws are webbed, while his fur is slightly oily to ensure that it's as waterproof as possible. However, from the back of his neck and just behind his shoulders, the resemblance to a normal wolf ends dramatically. His pale fur fades into bright aqua, white and black scales, extending into a massive Sailfish tail, complete with pointed tail fins. The characteristic Sailfish sail extends from his neck and down his tail, he's able to raise it and lower it depending on his requirements. Completing his unique 'fishiness', Kippy is able to breathe underwater and he can also 'sense' things in the dark using certain things that run down the side of his tail. His ears can be closed and his eyes have an extra eyelid to protect against the water. Personality The best word to describe Kippy would be 'gentleman'. He's a kind, sweet and charming creature, born in a pack where manners were important and each wolf cared deeply for the rest. He is polite and well-spoken, always with a ready smile and kind compliment. He believes wholeheartedly in love and trust, peace and equality. Upon first meeting he comes across as a gentle, reserved individual, respectful and patient. When better known his more cheerful side comes out, childlike and playful. While not entirely naive, Kip does have a tendency to be a little too trusting and a little too forgiving. He likes to try and see the best in others and believes that everyone deserves a second chance. Perhaps even a third, or fourth, or fifth or so on..... He believes that everyone is innocent till proven guilty and that other wolves shouldn't be judged on the way they look or act. He LIKES the sea, fish, fishing, sunshine, laughter, song, story, puppies, his family and friends, blue skies, the open ocean, waterfalls, sandy beaches and a good race. He DISLIKES desert heat, rocky ground, violence, deadly storms, bad manners, arrogance, making enemies and war. And of course, he has little faith in Koss, his least favourite Immortal. Ancestry Kipawa was born in the East, in a small family unit. Reyjak, father, Bottlenose Dolphin, Dovett, born in the East. Irindia, mother, Osprey, Mortuus, born in the West. Taulin, sister, Turtle, Dovett. Nrlin, brother, Bottlenose Dolphin, Dovett. History There's really not that much to tell about Kipawa's history. He was born in a litter of three to his parents, Reyjak and Irindia. They weren't part of a pack, preferring each other's company to that of any others. Kip and his siblings grew up in a warm environment, cherished and well-taught, learning and exploring. They couldn't have asked for a better puphood, there was little stress and less violence, his family filled a niche that meant they avoided having to compete with most other packs. Thus, life was good. When he was old enough, Kipawa left his family as a dispersal, succumbing to an overwhelming itch to explore the land outside his home. Most of his time was spent swimming the seas, he came on land only to sleep and bathe in the sun. While he didn't come across many others, those he did come across were generally welcoming and warm, the creatures of the seas weren't so interested in following Koss's destructive ways. He's learnt a lot in his travels and he hopes to see his family one day soon, but until then, he's happy just to roam around and meet others. Misc. Info OOC NameMorfie.
