Personality:

Aros is a very gentle soul, and despite his rough past, does everything he can to look on the bright side of things. His father was verbally abusive to him, causing Aros to be timid and overly submissive when others raise their voice at him or scold him, and it can cause him to either run or get frustrated which turns into aggression. Over the years he’s worked on not being so hurt by others words and to stand up for himself, but still struggles with it sometimes, especially when others are angry at him.  All Aros wants to do is please others, whether that is his Jarl, Viscountess, or his pack mates. On the flip side of this gentle, rather submissive behavior, Aros can seemingly flip a switch when it comes to tasks he is given. He is extremely driven and will drive himself into the ground if it means finishing a task he is given. He works with extreme strategical skills and will think of every option possible in a situation if you ask him too. Aros will hide for hours in a bush, days even if it means being able to take down enough prey to feed his pack. He does not care for fighting though, and if put in the situation will try to talk his way out of it, or if needed, do what he can to end the fight, whether with another Akiulfr or his prey.

Likes :: Companionship, colder weather, swimming, climbing
Dislikes :: Being yelled at, being alone, fighting, extremely hot days
Strengths :: Strategic, logical, kind and gentle hearted and determined
Weaknesses: Submissive, anxious, unsure of himself at times and withdrawn

History:

A lot of Aros’ puphood is made of stories at he chooses and wants to forget. In some senses, Aros was a mistake, a pup that his father never wanted his mother to birth. He was the second pup of two that his mother gave birth to, though his sister died not long after she was born. Supposedly his father, Ake, had decided that no matter what pups were born, they would be killed at birth, but because his mother, Kaarina only birthed two pups and lost one, she became almost aggressively protective over Aros, and somehow convinced Ake to leave him alone and let him live. But sometimes, Aros wished that his mother wouldn’t have protected him. While Aros’ family was more or less a part of the tribe, Ake chose to keep to the outskirts, partaking in things that were required to be a part of the tribe, such as hunts or council meetings, but aside from that, Ake kept himself and his family away from everyone else. Aros had few friends, occasionally getting to play with some of the other pups when his father was out doing tasks or hunting, but when he was back, he kept Aros and his mother away from the others.

His father despised him, either ignoring him or yelling at him when he got to close or tried to speak to him. Kaarina did all she could to protect her little child, keeping him away from Ake if at all possible, but Ake was possessive over Kaarina, and so they were almost always together. Aros grew up in fear of his father, and often tried to run off on his own at a young age, just so he didn’t have to be around his father. But despite his rough father-son relationship, his mother was the most loving and pure thing in Aros’ life. Late at night when Ake was asleep, Kaarina would take Aros on walks, always down to the river’s edge where they would sit and talk, or just star gaze. This was where Kaarina told him the story of his birth, and how he got his name. Aros meant “from the river’s mouth”, and was chosen as his name by her because he was born here, by the river. Those were always the moments he loved the most, being alone with his mother, listening to the rushing water and gazing at the stars.

Once Aros was almost two years old, he had felt that he had grown enough and no longer needed to live under the watchful eye of his mother, and he knew for a fact he could no longer stand to be under his father’s disgusted shadow. And so with a tearful goodbye, he left his mother, refusing to even tell his father he was leaving, for he knew that the brute would be overjoyed to not have to deal with his unwanted son. Since then, Aros has been learning how to be independent, as well as how to rid himself of the horrible nightmares of his past. Aros still lives within the tribes territory, on occasion catching a whiff of his parents or even a passing glance if the tribe is gathered together, but for the most part, he lives completely on his own, hoping he can move on from the only relationship he knew, with his parents, and move on with his life.
