Appearance: Anthropomorphic wolf, mostly black with a white underbelly, toes, and fingers (though the pads of both are black). Hands and feet are paw-like, and she keeps her nails trimmed when not expecting to need to use them, especially the ones on her bowstring hand (right). Tail is more curly than usual for a wolf, and ends in a grey tip. Light brown eyes are highlighted by patches of white above them. One eye is typically painted with a red circle surrounded by alternating green and blue arrowheads. A thick mohawk between her ears drapes over one ear, bangs just barely kept from covering an eye with the occasional flick of the head. The mohawk continues down the back of her head into a long, thick braid, tied at the end by a red ribbon. The backs of her arms are usually painted with a red zigzag line, generally paired with the eye paint. Height: 5 foot 5 inches.

Note: The above reference image is for fur markings reference. She wears clothes, generally natural colors that blend into the forest well. Her standard outfit is a tunic with breeches or leggings, generally with a cloak that can double as a blanket, and vambraces to protect her arms while shooting. She does not wear shoes, however, preferring to feel the ground under her feet.

Personality: Zelda is generally serious and fierce. She is a fighter, but needs good reason to fight - she doesn't just pick fights or join a fight if it's not for a cause she sees as justifiable.
Abilities: While she has no magical abilities, Zelda is a very accomplished tracker, hunter, and archer. Her heightened senses of sight, smell, and hearing hearken back to the wolf blood in her, and assist her in the hunt, whether it is for prey or an enemy. In hand-to-hand combat, she uses her powerful jaws and canines to bite, along with using her natural strength to kick, punch, and pin her enemy. Her bowstring hand usually has the least sharp claws, as she keeps them trimmed to avoid breaking the string often. Because of this, she also carries a knife, which she will use as needed, if the fight requires it. |
