Twig

Twigis a sharn wolf with forest green eyes. He is Phoenix Tribe's herbalist.

Twig spent his puphood in the Basoa pack, grandson of its then-leader Mistborn. He joined the Phoenix Tribe on September 19, 2024. He left as a yearling. He originally intended to pass through the tribe, only serving as a temporary herbalist for shelter and food. He then stayed another moon—and another. He enjoyed the freedom and low commitment of practice in a small pack, and eventually forged a bond with the pack's scouts and leader.

The grey wolf is serious about his medicine! He practices to-the-book, very particular about his measurements and herb quality. Saving lives is his mission at all costs—even when treatment is at the detriment of his packmates. He has only dealth with mild wounds, with his current worst case being Cedar's flank gash after her glacier exploration. If he ever dealt with a mortal wound, he probably wouldn't handle it well.

He is one of the few wolves who can read Clawmark in the Tribe, but chooses to say nothing. Grouse and Jay write profanity and complaints about wolves around the camp, which Twig admittedly finds humerous. He burst out laughing in front of Polar's den when Grouse—identifiable by his rough and smudgy scratches—wrote something to the effect of: "poopy bird fur? Poopy bird attitude? 🤨"

He also has taken a liking towards Sister, who he mentored temporarily as a pup. She was supposed to take his place until he decided to stay. As wolves they enjoy bantering together, and they can often be found talking over chews about plants in the area.

When Lupo—Lupo? The pup with his head and tail on backwards?—became a scout, Twig lost both Rusty and Cedar from sharing the entrance of his Split Sap. Now he had to spend time with this klutz! He tried to keep Lupo as far away from his neatly organized hoard as possible. He noticed the youth's voice had finally taken the edge off itself, which is what he remembered him by. The wolves had meanly nicknamed him Squeaky, but he seems to have grown out of that. Twig found himself missing his friends at first, having bonded with the old scouts.
