[he/him]
aravaipa is not a talker - in fact, he is mute, and communicates any ideas he feels he must share through body language. while he does very much enjoy company, what he enjoys about it is soaking it all in, and friendship to him is displayed simply by sitting by a friend and lending a listening ear. he doesn't particularly like being alone, and when he is he tends to be a bit twitchy and suspicious, as though constantly expecting someone to jump out of the shadows and bite.
he is very curious and enjoys poking his nose where it probably shouldn't be. he makes friends easily and is always willing to accompany them on adventures, whether it's something as simple as serving as the guard to a puppy who wanders from their den, hunting, or scouting through forests and fields. he always brings back trinkets, and the surefire way to know if he considers you a friend is when he delivers you one.
