Nisus

Nisus from the Pack of The Gray Ghost

Nisus is the second-born son of Gentilis and Griseice's first litter. He has always been calm and thoughtful, and he wouldn't hurt a fly, his nature however clashes with his sister Albida's, whose destiny is to lead the pack; while Nisus never truly found his path: he dreamed of becoming an herbalist, ended up as an hunter and cared for pups, but nothing felt right. He had always been a curious wolf, he wanted to see what was beyond the limits of the seemingly endless pine forest his father choose as their home many moons before; so one day he decides to leave for a journey to learn about all packs and their customs, collecting stories, looking foward to coming back to his home one day and to share the memories and lessons learnt on the way.

Lore: Nisus stumbled across a large open area of long grass. He breathed in deeply, wondering where he would end up travelling to next. He startled as a couple of pups collided into him. An earthy green male wolf Adalard came loping after the pups. "Apologies, for those two pups, they're being tried to be taught manners." A fond smile crept up on his muzzle. "I am the alpha of this pack, you're welcome to stay awhile." He dashed off after the mischievous pups.

Lore: Nisus trotted up to the lone tree he could see in the middle of the plains. With a small grunt of effort, he jumped on the lowest branch and quickly made his way up to the highest branches. There, he settled down and slowly took in the view. In the distance, he could see the sun setting, casting it's orange hot glow on the wind-swept grass. He could smell the approaching scent of thunder and humidity, indicating that it would rain soon, maybe in less than minutes. He watched the birds fly close to the ground, trying to catch insects, under the lasts rays of the sun. His gaze went all the way to the other side of the plains, where he could see tall Mountains, very far-away. There, he frowned, spotting movement. Nisus squinted. After a few seconds, his eyes lit up with recognition. Hunting Wolves! The group was running after an enormous cow, wearing it down, exhausting it. Nisus scooted closer to the trunk, settling to watch the hunt. The wolf was full intending to stay out of the local Pack's way, content to do nothing else but watch.

However, fate seemed to disagree.

Nisus smiled softly, remembering the memories and the thrill of chasing with other Packs during his Travels. As the Hunting Party's prey ran under the tree Nisus was perched in, however, the smile turned into a concerned and alert frown as one of the wolves' paw caught on a rock formation and made him trip. Badly. The wolf landed on his face, crushing his own paws with all his body weight on the very sharp and dangerous looking rocks. Concerned, the other Hunters stopped chasing the prey and ran back to the fallen wolf to try and help him.
Just as the two other wolves went past Nisus's tree, the cow looked back and saw the fallen wolf and the inattention of the two others. Enraged and vengeful, the cow made a sharp turn and ran back where it came from, charging head down at the trio of wolves who were all blissfully unaware of the upending doom that was fast approaching.
Not losing a second, Nisus got up to his feet, jumping down the branches, circling around the trunk to gain motion and force. Just as the cow barreled in front of the tree and the trio looked back, frozen, Nisus jumped out of the tree, jaw closing and clenching on the cow's throat, bodily slamming into it's charging form. The sudden weight and force slamming into it's head made the cow stumble to the right and fall, sliding all the way to the terrified trio, stopping just at their right, only inches away from them.
This one bite wasn't enough to kill the cow, so Nisus locked his jaw in place and yanked back, tearing out a whole chunk of meat from the cow's throat. Blood leaking from the wound, disorientated by the sudden attack to it's head followed by a very close encounter with the ground, the large prey unsteadily got up, but Nisus jumped back and clawed at it's stomach, leaving deep gashes into the flesh. The cow weakly charged at him, and he ducked to the right before jumping back at the cow and closing his jaws around it's throat once again. Doing the same move twice, Nisus teared the beast's throat, yanking his head back so hard all the blood and bits of flesh flew in the air and caught on his fur. He stepped in front of the trio, facing the cow, and growled menacingly. From his mouth, blood and spit leaked, dripping onto the blood stained grass of the improvised arena. The teared piece of flesh was still between Nisus's clenched teeth, oozing blood and further painting the ground, forming a sizable puddle of the deep crimson liquid. His white fur, now covered in blood, formed little peaks, behaving almost like it was drenched in water. Orange eyes blazing in protective fury, his growl intensified, almost casting a glow on the blood that covered his muzzle. In the night, as the sun had set during the fight, his overall appearance seemed closer to what Fae looked like in tales than any regular wolves ever would.
Even the cow seemed to hesitate. Not for long though, as the blood loss and severe wounds made themselves know, it attempted to move and get away. But it's feet seemed to fail it and it started to fall. Nisus helped in that regard, as he dashed to the animal and crushed it's vertebra between his jaws. He kept his grip on the animal for a bit after it stopped moving and resisting. The blood from the animal pooled on the rocky ground, nearing the still frozen trio. The puddle that the fallen wolf's wound had created, joined the slowly advancing pool of blood from the dead cow.

Only then did Nisus loosen his jaws. Expression relaxed, face and body coated with slowly drying blood, he smile, teeth glinting red with blood, and spoke:

"Hi."

It really shouldn't have come as a surprise when the wounded wolf fell unconscious.

Later, at the Pack's Home, Nisus would gain the nick-name Surprise Blood Bath, which sounds like a mouthful, but was unhelpfully shortened by Brume, the Moonlight Lull Pack's Leader, to S2B.

When he would walk away from the Pack, Moons later, he would do so with fond memories of new acquired friends, a nick-name and the benediction of the Moon.

If when he passed in front of the lone tree, Nisus ('S2B' 'Shush') stopped and saw a deep gash in the trunk, he smile, then no one was there to talk about it, was there.
