| My Werecard |
| Human Name: Dakota Were Name: Rune Fox Phenotype: I'm a polywere, and as such, my phenotypes are red fox, timber wolf, and possibly snow leopard, though I will need to soul-search more to come to a conclusion Shifting Ability: Mental shifts occur nearly everyday for me, and sense shifts are a commonality as well, since I have a strong sense of hearing and smell. Aural shifts occur every so often, and sometimes I'll have dream shifts, but I don't experience those very often. Home Territory: a nice sized house nestled on the outskirts of a farming village Physical Description, Human: 6'1", 195 lb., blackish brown hair that hangs a couple inches past my shoulders, athletic and muscular build, handsome, pale skin Physical Description, Were: As a fox, I appear just as a normal red fox with a white-tipped tail with black-tipped ears and legs, whereas as a wolf, I have a black fur-coat with piercing goldish eyes. Human Career: high school student, but I hope to become an engineer after I complete college Hobbies/Interests: In my free time, I'm often found playing piano or immersing myself in some other form of the arts like drawing. Being an artistic person, the arts are practically my life support, and whether it be music, poetry, or some other medium, I find the greatest beauty in self-expression. Whenever I'm not pursuing any artistic endeavors, I'm often improving my knowledge through study of machinery or some other serious topic like religion. Other things I enjoy are video games, martial arts, anime, and hanging out with friends.

But sometimes I'll meet some magnificent individuals who amaze me, so there are some decent humans out there. Personal Therianthropy: Ever since I was a child, animals had fascinated me with their beauty and quiet intelligence. When I was still but a toddler, I often mimicked the behavior of cats and dogs, and had animal-like tendencies such as curling up when I slept or growling when I grew angry. My parents and family just assumed I would "outgrow" my animal-like tendencies, but how wrong were they. I often scared the living daylights out of other children with my behavior, and so much of my childhood was a lonely experience. Growing up was difficult for me as I was often alone, and my only companions were my brothers and animals. I spent hours playing with my cats and dogs, and I felt as if I had some deep, spiritual connection with them. It was as if I could understand them better than I could people, and my family often noted that it seemed I could understand what the animals wanted and read their body language perfectly. This was all still occuring at a young, tender age, but I felt like I had been this way for centuries. Displaying remarkable intelligence at a young age, I was often regarded as a prodigy and I was held in high esteem by my peers, despite my hesitance to warm up to them. As a result, I often felt burdened by all the expectations held by my family and school, and I simply wished to run free in the wilderness, unburdened by human problems. My teenage years were even harder on my ego than my childhood, and I felt confused, unsure of what or who I was. To make up for this uncertainity, I began immersing myself in studies of religious thought and occult sciences. I soon established a discipleship under the god Anubis, whom I felt was my spiritual father, and as time passed, I learned more about myself. But despite my newly found religious beliefs and knowledge, I still felt like something was missing. Inside there was a void that wasn't filled until I ran across a site on therianthropy when I was 14 years old. At first I was skeptical about it, but the more I read and researched, the more it made sense. It seemed to explain so much, and I felt like I truly found that missing part of me. Afterawhile, I wasn't quite sure of what phenotype I fell under, and after some research and soul-searching, I felt I was a tiger. But of course, I was wrong, and after about a year, I entered a deep study of my personality and spirit. For as long as I can remember, I've always had a fascination with wolves and foxes, but for some odd reason or another, I never realized the possibilty that they could be my missing phenotypes. Afer soul-searching, I came to the conclusion that I had indeed found my phenotypes, and so I comfortably settled with my newly found sense-of-self. Nowadays, I shift nearly everyday, and I'm still learning more and more about myself. A distinct thought rests in the back of my mind, and that is the possibilty a third phenotype may exist. I have had dreams of being a snow leopard and they feel quite real and vivid, but I don't quite know what to make of them. Snow leopards have long been an animal I also felt close to, and much of my behavior seems similar to theirs. If I would possess such a phenotype, then it would explain very much, but I still don't know how to regard such a thing. Maybe I am or maybe I'm not, but who knows, the universe is full of endless possibilites. :) -Dakota September 19, 2004 |
