Full Name: Anikotsu
Nickname(s): Ani
Age: 2-3ish
Gender: Female
Rank: Warrior (Spying, sometimes pup-sitting)
Species: Dog
Breed: Border Collie
Personality: Ani is a little absent-minded, but a friendly spirit. She's morally ambiguous, falling neither to angelic good nor demonic bloodlust, though she'll sometimes come off a little dark-sided or crude from being a mercenary's pet. Knowledgeable in battle tactics, since starting a new life she tries to avoid conflict unless directly confronted with it. She loves pups, though is hesitant to have any of her own since she loved one of her older male comrades, Koen.
History: Ani was one of the many pets of a human-mercenary, alongside her seven Aniki. Being one of the smaller of the group, her speed and size were used in her training as a spy and retrieval dog. Rarely was she ordered to attack, unless it was a last resort, but she has, in the past, killed other dogs and even one or two humans. But after one particular job, her old owner was poisoned and she and her Aniki were crated up and set to be shipped to a faraway land. On the way to the docks, her crate fell out and over a small cliff into a river. She escaped, and has been wandering while looking for her Aniki ever since - though she's seen no signs of them, she still hopes that they escaped... somehow.
Roleplay Sample: There was water all around, rushing past her body and through the mesh of the crate. Her tiny prison rolled in the current, end over end, the wood had splintering every time it hit the riverbed. She had no way to breathe, her world was getting dark and cold...
Crack! The dull sound was a glimmer of hope in the clutches of death. The crate split-open, and Anikotsu tumbled out into the water freely, skidding in the rocks and slimy dirt before making a beeline for the surface. She broke through, swimming madly to shore while gasping for breath. The border collie lay with her back end in the water, panting, tired. She was alone.
