World of Wolves - Part Two

Miki Locklear

Name: Miki Locklear

Nicknames: Mi, Mik

Age: 24

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Queer/Fluid

Species: Werewolf

Looks:

(Faceclaim: Willow Allen - @willow.allen on Insta)
She's 5'9.5 (take away that half inch at your own risk)

Personality: Miki is a calming presence, upon first assumption. She looks serene, calming, and gentle. Is she? Well, she has the ability to be. Does she enact that ability? Not as often as she likely should. She is a very kind person, but calming she is not. Energetic and inquisitive, she is a bit of an oddball in comparison to her reserved, reclusive pack. She has questions and wonders and an adventurous spirit. She adores her pack, but she is also curious about the Mainlanders, as her pack calls those in the 'main' United States. She wants to know what their packs are like, what makes them different, and wants to know if she can learn from them, and if they can learn from her. She is also an incredibly caring individual, especially of children. She loves children, and she is like a big child herself at times, knowing how to play with them and keep them entertained, but also knowing when to be a 'mother-like' figure and possibly discipline. She is a storyteller in her pack, someone favored by the ancestors. She leads the stories around the fires (or sometimes another storyteller does, there are currently four in the pack), and she is deeply animated and enthralling. When she is storytelling, everyone grows quiet to listen, even the most rambunctious children, and the crankiest of elders. But deep down, she feels she has an unsettled spirit. Her pack is her home, but the world is calling to her. She is often chastised, told to stop her foolish thoughts, and stay home where she belongs. She is, in addition to storyteller, one of the pack hunters and scouts. She has a role in her pack. They don't want to lose her, and she doesn't want to disappoint them.

Likes: her pack, children, stories, storytelling, the world (even though she is clueless about it), nature, the wild

Dislikes: her unsettled spirit, discontent in her soul and life, failing, disappointing her pack, disappointing her ancestors

Powers: Shifting into a wolf (looks above); heightened durability, strength, speed, senses, and reflexes while in human form.

Backstory: Miki grew up as the granddaughter of a former Malamute leader, one considered to be among the best leaders of Malamute pack history. Living in that shadow, in a way, people had great expectations for Miki, especially when she displayed the storyteller magic at such a young age - she was 13 when she was officially granted the role. However, by the time she was 15, people started accepting that her wandering spirit was not a phase, but was in fact a part of Miki. She really did want to explore the world. This caused some scoffs and disappointment among her pack, which broke Miki's heart. Doing her best to remain faithful to them, she does her best to tamp down on that spirit of hers, despite the unrest it causes her soul. One day, she wants to explore, but she fears if she leaves, she will never be able to find her pack again. She has had a few run-ins with the Four Claws werebear group (created by the lovely Saytrn03), though she never means any disrespect, even befriending a werebear in the Second Claw. She truly just wants to know about the world, but she, like the rest of her pack, is so far removed she is very far behind in the ways of life. Never having seen a phone - landline or otherwise - in her entire life, she would surely either freak out or be utterly enraptured by the world beyond her borders.

Other: She is of Inuit descent, her father being a werewolf of full-blooded Inuit status, and her mother being half-Inuit. She also holds Inuit tribal membership, and interacting with them is the closest she has ever gotten to the real world, but interactions are often far removed from society. Miki interacts with them more than her other pack and tribal mates. The last person to interact with them so much was her grandfather.
California fascinates her, as does Arizona and Texas, and the mountain regions of the country
She has three little siblings - a brother who is 19 (Yuka Locklear), a sister who is is 9, and a brother who is 3
She has green eyes
The faceclaims for Miki and Yuka are brother and sister in real life
