Colour: Fledge is predominantly a crisp white. His only distinctive markings are the piebald markings on his face, a sort of 'broken' mask. His markings can be best described as a 'crooked S' over his right eye, a smudge in the inner-corner of his left eye and a smudge below. These markings are, for the most part, dark grey-chocolate (a very slight 'cast' of brown). His right ear is coloured, and his left eye is outlined in dark grey that expands over his cheek and curves up his forehead to encompass his left ear. There is a little tan colour found both above and below his right eye and below his left eye (between the darker smudge and the eye). The inner fur of his ears is a tannish-grey, and his ears themselves are a deep grey, almost black at the tips.

Body Type: Fledge is fairly well-proportioned but appears to be quite thick in build due to his fur, but also due to his broad chest and shorter back. He is a wolf born to thrive in harsh mountainous conditions and it shows - he is neither tall or long looking but instead, he is built compact. His eyes are large and alert but his ears are broad and perhaps appear a little shorter than the average wolf's. Overall, he gives off the impression of a compact, burly wolf capable of buckling down in a snowstorm or outpacing a storm. His endurance is his strong point, whereas his speed is average at best.
Fur Type: Fledge has a thick double-coat of plush, pillowy fur all over. It is soft, dense and although long, it lacks any wispiness. His tail, especially, is long and thick, able to keep him warm in even the fiercest of snowstorms. In summer, he blows his coat dramatically, leaving surprisingly shorter coat behind.

Personality: Fledge is a bit of an old soul. Having heard many stories, 'last words' and so forth, he's developed a compassionate, but quiet, nature. He is a wolf who chooses his words carefully, avoids strife, enjoys connecting others with one another and believes in 'forgiving life for its atrocities.' Fledge tries to keep his eye on the big picture, trying not to become caught up in the small details of daily life.

History: Fledge is from a small pack that dwells in the far north, renown for their semi-nomadic lifestyle through a vast mountain range. Whereas they hold a loose territory, other permanent packs live within that range as well. Fledge's family group travels often, integrating briefly with those packs before continuing on their own, maintaining the borders between. In a sense, they are the custodians of the mountain range, reporting between packs and keeping a close eye on prey migration, weather events and so forth. For that, they are renown for their endurance too.

His mother's name is Nest, and his father's name is Merle. Though Fledge was the only child in his litter, he has a sister, Swift, and a brother, Pintail. They traveled with two other family groups, but maintained a pack no larger than 12 wolves. That, in fact, is the reason Fledge has traveled so far. His sister, Swift, had been expecting a litter. Both Fledge, Pintail and another two young wolves from the other families had chosen to travel in response to the news. Each chose a point of the compass and went on their way, as many had before them.

Having been four years old when he had left his home, Fledge has had quite a life outside of his home. He has traveled gradually further south, ocassionally traveling with other nomadic packs or operating as a courier of sorts, delivering messages and tales to and from family members and packs alike. During that time, Fledge had a mate for a brief period of time, spending only a year with her before she grew sick and passed away. Her name had been Freesia, and she had been several years older than Fledge. Her death had been peaceful, and Fledge had promised to continue on his journey.

It has been almost a year since Freesia passed, and Fledge has continued his couriering and traveling in the meantime. Having heard the tales of Moladion, he's grown curious enough about the place to pay it a visit. Additionally, he has a message to pass on to a wolf in Moladion, a wolf said to live in the mountains. Fledge, of course, cannot deny an opportunity to revisit somewhere akin to his original home.
