Shiko

(For lore, look below the book. This is where her decision across various events will go, above the book. Obviously, none of it is true, but. It's the lore I had in mind when making her after doing an...Honestly unnecessary amount of research on things.)

📖

Shiko was a Nobaby that managed to avoid being deleted long enough to grow up and start developing her markings and eye color. She still has access to some of her old glitchy powers, but she won't use them if she can help it. She has not yet told Takal, her mate, her past. She doesn't know how he'll react, and honestly? She doesn't want to find out. She's not entirely sure why her face turned black and white as she grew, but it did. She's not complaining, though. She hopes her abilities can't pass to her pups. That would be...Awkward...She gets cold easily, since she wasn't meant to exist, but continues to exist anyway. She's a fairly neutral wolf, and not overly picky with what she eats, though she has a fondness for eggs. She's...Not the best hunter, but she likes her eggs. They're tasty. She'll even eat the shells, so there's no wasting any of it. Her powers tend to lash out when she's terrified, which is both a blessing and a curse, since she is aware she's in a game, and does not want to draw the attention of the devs. She doesn't truly trust any wolf, since she can't tell if they're a dev in disguise or not. She avoids large gatherings when she can, and prefers to scout the territory on her own. She has a few hidden groves where she's feels safest, but she never fully relaxes, even there. Not even Tala is aware that she's a full-grown Nobaby, and she intents to keep it that way. She doesn't want to be deleted, so she doesn't tell anyone what she really is. Shiko doesn't know why her face changed, but could it be a side effect of her glitchy nature stabilizing? Maybe it's a remnant of her unfinished coding, or perhaps an early sign that she's still changing in ways she doesn't understand. She doesn't know, and she's not sure she wants too. She avoids looking at her own reflection if she can, since it feels...Wrong. She doesn't know what it is about her reflection, but it unnerves her, and she doesn't like it. Her hidden groves are places that shouldn't exist that weren't erased, forgotten. Other wolves avoid them instinctively, and she takes advantage of this to hide. She occasionally wakes up from dreams where she was erased, and she hates it. She also occasionally wakes up with gaps in her memory, and she's paranoid enough that she always thinks a dev found her and just hasn't finishing erasing her yet. She usually remembers what happened during the gap later on, though, which calms her down.
