Physically and emotionally an old man, Thorn isn't the easiest to approach. While he's an excellent pack leader, his interpersonal skills could use some work. He has a habit of driving away all his mates with his blunt attitude and general uncaring nature. His emotions are at a constant level of low riding annoyance. It's neigh impossible to get on his good side. You can be on his okay side, though.
He's a leader because he was told wolves of his type are meant to lead, not because he necessarily wants to. Everything that happens after that is up to the whims of the forest.
