Personality Description: Vixen has a natural thirst for adventure. She'll often wander off into the forest and find trouble to get into just to keep her entertained. People are often concerned she will blow their cover, and her natural want to fight isn't very welcome in her tribe. Due to this, she's sort of an outcast. Still, she makes an excellent leader. She has secret dreams to lead the tribe, though she doubts that would happen due to her reputation. She resents this and often finds herself angry at the tribe, even though she really loves it.
Vixen is incredibly stubborn. She often hides her feelings that could be considered weak and denies feeling them at all. She's definitely a tough nut to crack, and she'll stand her ground until the last second. Though she has a secret longing to be loved and nurtured, she doesn't let this show because of her need to be seen as strong and older than she really is.
She's basically always screwing up. She really hates when she does, and does her best to fix it as soon as possible, but she's just a problem magnet. Whether this is just due to her being young or if its a personality trait is unknown to anyone. She's dearly hoping to grow out of it. She hates being viewed the way she is and looked down on by the other tribe members.
Vixen holds a secret yearning to be with another tribe that does more fighting. Though she knows this is an impossible feat, and she IS loyal to her tribe, it comes from her drive to be in the heat of battle. She knows that this is where her true power would shine and she would most likely thrive in a tribe like that. So, really, she mostly hopes for her tribe to go into battle. Though it is a terrible wish, and she feels guilty for it, it is a dream.
So, really, she doesn't know how to deal with her feelings.
Biographical History: Her parents are dead. As cheesy as it sounds, it happens, especially when you're a tribe of animals living out in a forest village. Her parents, ironically, were huge pacifists. They hated fighting. So one day when they were ambushed by their companion animal's natural predator, they tried to fight back but just didn't quite cut it. They tried to flee only to find the rest of the animal's pack waiting for them around the bend. They were murdered, but Vixen was residing safely in the village as a little baby. She never really got to meet them, or at least not when she was old enough to remember. The pack raised her, and maybe it was because of her resentment towards her parent's deaths that she turned out so differently. Deep down, she doesn't want what happened to her parents to happen to her. She describes them as weak and often acts as if she distastes them, when the case is really the opposite inside of her.
She grew up training to fight by herself. She'd often sneak up on animals and watch them. Still, she didn't know what her animal was yet, so fighting like an animal as a human was kind of lame to her. She was really hoping she'd get some kind of giant warrior animal, like a bear or a tiger, and was disappointed when she had a fox. Over the year, though, her bond for her companion has grown immensely and she wouldn't change it. Now, when she's stressed out or simply bored, she sneaks into the forests and trains.

Brief Appearance Description:
Human: Vixen is muscular, but not enough that you can see her muscles. She has curves, and almost looks slightly chubby, but she's really just fit and strong. She has tan skin from always being in the sun. She wears tattered, layered clothing, including a one sleeved tunic that exposes her belly and a skirt. She wears leg warmers made out of the same material and is constantly barefoot. Around her left leg she wears a parcel where she carries random bits and bobs that she might need. She's usually covered in dirt.
Fox: Her fox companion is abnormally large for a fox, more the size of a small wolf. She's muscular while still being sleek looking, and is covered in fluffy, raggedy-looking orange fur the same color as her hair in human form. White hair covered some of her face, muzzle, and underbelly. Darker fur can be seen on the tips of her ears and tail. She doesn't have the markings she has as a human in her fox form.
