Decimus 1975
⊳ Personality: In Depth
Decimus is a Felvarg that most would say to avoid. The perfect recipe for a manipulative, backstabbing jerk, the giant male has ten times as many enemies than friends, if you would even consider them his friends. He doesn't have much care for anyone other than himself, and he knows exactly how to get what he wants. Some would say his muzzle is trapped in a constant snarl, and its true that he has major rbf. If asked for help he would reply with a loud "f- off" and be on his way. He's snappy and rather uncivil with his word-choice most of the time, though he can and will be the perfect prince, with perfected grammar and charming words, when needed.
The dire is built like a fortress, with strong rippling muscles, tall legs, and razor-sharp fangs that can rip off a limb. His strength is paired with a wide skill-set that is helpful in nearly any situation, though his typical achievement of goals or wishes is by deceit, lies, and manipulation. Additionally he is incredibly resourceful. Decimus always seems to know when, where, and from who he can recieve help or goods. If his aspirations are unobtainable by means of using others, he's surprisingly very hardworking- if he wants it badly enough, nothing will stop him from reaching his goals. He's perfectly capable, too, which pairs well with his diligent nature.
Decimus can and will play around in others' drama. He enjoys tension that fights and secrets between others can create, and he'll watch from the sidelines in glee after sending the fragile mountain of feelings toppling down. Whether its from spreading rumors or obtaining secrets that aren't his to share, he'll be sure the other side hears of his anonymous shenanigans and watch the story unfold.
At the end of the day, though packed full of flaws and negative character traits that send most Felvarg's running, he's learning. One would never describe him as empathetic or caring, but when it comes to the one Felvarg who managed to capture his attention and the family they have together, he holds them with a certain tenderness to his heart.

⊳ Capable | Decimus was raised in a family where if you are unable to get things done, you are unworthy of your rank. Rigorous demands were to be met under Arcay's eyes, else Decimus would face a step down the ladder of hierarchy within his father's pack. His ambitions were always to remove his father from power and obtain the throne for himself- be it through a peaceful transfer from a king to a prince, or through more violent ways. These ambitions trained Decimus to stay on his toes at all times, allowing him from a young age to efficiently achieve what ever needs to be done to reach his goals.
⊳ Harkworking | Working hand and hand with his wide range of capabilities, Decimus is not afraid to do what needs to be done, no matter the effort it will cost. Dedication is no stranger to this Felvarg, and he is willing to go above and beyond, should he deem the awards great enough. Given a task he will complete it if he finds it benefits him, despite the strain or stress it may cause.
⊳ Resourceful | His knowledge on just about everything seems to be never-ending. Decimus knows where things can be found, what they are used for, how to collect them, you name it. Its as if he has an acquaintance in each corner of anywhere, someone he knows he can trust to retrieve what ever it is he's after. He's one of those "I know a guy" Felvargs, and would absolutely thrive in any situation should he find himself stranded with nothing but the teeth in his jaws.
⊳ Skillfull | Decimus is not only capable of performing tasks, he's good at it too. There isn't much that this Felvarg isn't good at, and his wide range of skills most definitely comes in handy. From tracking to fishing to his social skills (despite them being deceptive most of the time), this large male has them all, and he is not afraid to flaunt them either.
⊳ Strong | For a Felvarg his size, there is no question that under his thick fur, there is a set of muscles that one could assume is stronger than the average dire wolf. From long, thick legs perfect for running, climbing, you name it, to the powerful clench of his jaws that can pull around most things, Decimus is no doubt powerful, muscular, fit and athletically built. He isn't afraid to display this strength either, and will use force to get his way if it comes down to it.
⊳ Uncooperative | While entirely able to do just about any sort of task that is asked of him, getting Decimus to actually agree to said task is easier said than done. He is typically unwilling to participate in any scheme unless he finds use for it himself- asking for favors won't get you anywhere with this stubborn male. If he finds that he does not care for your motivations himself, you can count him out of your plans.
⊳ Hostile | Perhaps the trait that strangers are the most familiar with when the thought of Decimus comes to mind. While yes, it is within his abilities to be "nice", kind even, if the situation calls for it, it is a rare side of him to see. Most likely you will encounter his aggressive nature, the one that is unafraid to lash out and harm others. Unfriendly, he is not afraid to be rude to people. It is typical to find him with his ears slightly angled back or even pinned if he's in a really bad mood, and he will not hesitate to snarl or bare his fangs, even at the slightest inconveniences.
⊳ Cunning | While his capabilities are one of his better traits, and his abilities to obtain exactly what he wants are typically quite in his favor, Decimus isn't one to exert extra energy if he can help it. He would much rather use his smarts and twist his words, manipulating others to bend to his will. Whether its through empty promises, building up the confidence of others only to tear it down once he is through with them, or using his charms to get in the good graces of them with no intent on sticking around, he will use his cunning nature over and over should it save him the work.
⊳ Selfish | He doesn't care. That's literally it. If you aren't him, Decimus doesn't care for you. He will walk over you without a moment's notice if you are standing in his way. He would sacrifice anything, truthfully, should he predict it gives him the up and up- although he wouldn't really call it a sacrifice, seeing as he doesn't care. Helpful he is not unless it benefits himself, and if you just so happen to also benefit from it, then count yourself lucky.
⊳ Meddlesome | Decimus finds great joy in stirring up trouble. Watching things go awry is one of his favorite past times, even if he has to be the one to cause such chaos himself. Sneaking in rumors to others, sleuthing around behind the scenes to disrupt things perfectly in place, such as a rope keeping a boat close to the shore, you name it- Decimus takes far too much glee in causing trouble for others that could very well be disastrous for them.
