Appearance:
She is quite a good sized creature, being a Baroque Beast, and hits in at four. She only reaches this when she is absolutely standing up straight, which is how she always stands due to her personality. She couldn’t stand to lower those broad shoulders for a moment and thus she keeps a very rigid posture. This leads to her back always being very straight and revealing a long and very bony spin. In fact this spin is so thick because these bones on her back are covered with the exoskeleton so known for the Baroque Beasts. Though rare on females she has been from her nose following the line over her head, down her back, and down the two beautiful tails that erupt from her back.

She is covered in an odd shade of black, leaning towards a darker grey. This fur is very thick and almost more like the fur of an arctic fox then a wolf, which leads the rest of her appearance. Covered in that thick coat her fur is only interrupted by bits of a bony exoskeleton, changing the color scheme of her ever so much with an off white color. These can be found not just down her spine but in eyebrow like formations and finally small clusters over each paw area. These alterations are joined only by a thick darker black mane that can be found streaming from her back and splitting into two distinct tails, often moving of their own accord.

She has a very thin face, slime and shaped very much like a diamond. Thick fur is pulled to either end of her face which gives it a very sharp and rigid appearance. This can only be helped by that set of bony eyebrows framing thin and very almond shaped eyes of the lightest yellow hue. This same very thin and almost stream line effect is achieved through the look of her thin eyes as well as the very thin and short ears. These ears are not so much small as they are often lowered down so that they nearly touch the back of her head, also a very lanky item of her body. The final bit of her face if finally a set of small teeth peeking lightly from a pulled back upper lip on a very thin jaw.

Personality:
Though self esteem can be the first thing you notice about a person do you always see past it. Now with a complex creature like must understand that it isn’t vanity she displays. The constant grooming and a cocky nature—especially about her appearance—can be taken all the wrong ways. In truth she appears this way only based upon the comments people make. Thus if she gets a slue of nice compliments she is more likely to prance about in such a manner that you would think she was the most narcissistic being in the making. However the second that a venom laced comment is sent spiraling her way she is bound to begin a series of doubts. These may include, but are not at all limited to, ”Am I that ugly?” This need for not only compliments but affection in general can lead to quite a dependant nature.

A shallow glance her way might tell you that Dinah isn’t as dependant as she has just been made out to be. With that you would be correct. Though she does need creatures, her want of them is as inconsistent as the moon. Sometimes she will yearn for nothing more then to go out with a large group and almost disappear into a comfort zone of playful insults and well thought out pranks. At other times she will have a grudge against the world and thus not want to see anyone in it, including herself. This can lead one to think that she is quite moody and such assumptions would, for the most part, be correct.

However her occasional moods can take more of a violent turn. She likes to think her sense of self control is unrivaled and on matters of beauty and what she believes it takes to get there; she would have every right to believe in herself. Her anger can take many forms, not all necessarily easy to pick out. Most of the time she shows a minor irritation, snapping at the first person to say the wrong thing. However she has been known to occasionally show a progression in her anger issues when competition arises. Though the woman hates competition, Dinah will almost never back down from any sort of fight. Now a fight to her is not always a fight to another. She is known to create the rivalries amongst her peers in her mind alone, not ever allowing them to ever know the secret race she holds between them.

Compulsive emotions are a large part of the way Dinah acts. Though she does well to try and keep these emotions at a constant apathy her self conscious is really the battle ground unseen by her peers. This can make it seem curious to why she might act a certain way. For instant when uncomfortable she tends to make a comment to spark the conversation. However these are not usually very appropriate or necessarily kind. She has been very known to remark about someone’s bad appearance at all the wrong times. However once she finds out her wrong she can be very hard on herself and will often resort to the very thing that makes her feel at home, her lies.

Indeed Dinah’s story telling is a large portion of her personality. Most to all know absolutely nothing about Dinah’s history due to a nature to not only flat out lie but make things the most fantastical she possible can. Though often caught in these lies as a pup she has grown to be quite the little deceptioness and keeps very close track of her lies as to repeat them at a later time. Dinah as well as being a might competitor and liar also partakes in often using manipulation. In all truth it is more a sense of determination that leads this canine on. She simply wants what she wants and whenever she decides she wants it. Thus she doesn’t care much for stepping on the toes and crushing the fingers of anyone who stands in her way. She will use a person for a small amount of time, for anything from free meals to compliments. This sort of manipulation is often against the opposite sex. In fact she rarely keeps a female friend for very long, due to her highly jealous nature.

A nature born leader she enjoys when people fall into line either at her side or at her feet. Seeing as she can easily whip a group of people into shape she is more often then not chosen as the leader. Though she can be quite the one to provoke others she also knows how to snap others into line. This is not only out of her ability to lead but her eagerness to succeed. This need shows through in her constant search for more knowledge. If she does not know something she must look upon it soon or else become subordinate to someone else, a fear more then anything else.

Biography:
Dinah is a younger creature, much younger then many Baroque Beasts that seem to be running around these days. Because of this she has always been the scorn of the Baroque Beasts, a very old race. She is the younger of a two pup litter, though that is not much of a consequence in her case. She was raised solitarily by her female mother due to the fact that her father merely was around to pass on the genes of the Baroque Beasts, a mere night of lust if you please. She was raised quite simply with her brother and early life was nothing more then her mother and the walls of their small cavern home.

There was nothing really to report of the small creature’s life with her mother. The fae was not the kindest woman but loved her children well enough to take care of them, no matter how iron the hand might have been. It was only quite a few years into the twin’s growth that the tragedy struck. There isn’t much to tell of the story. One morning their mother left and the next night she never returned. Dinah nor her brother, Jez, ever found out what happened to her mother but it soon forced them from their shelter. The two did well working together, able to catch small prey and other smaller meats they could survive off of. This did not at all leave the two destitute but instead just brought them extremely close together.

They lived this way for many years, fighting for and at each other’s side. The two grew extremely close and with this emotions grew. Now you must understand in the world of creatures ones kin can easily produce a proper child. Thus the two made perfect mates and neither could be happier. Dinah never bore a child by her brother as they were simply too young to actually take place in the act of mating. The only reason the two didn’t mate was a heart ripping experience in their adolescence. This small event is what you could say drove Dinah’s small tendencies of jealousy off the edge.

Jez was unsatisfied by their little house-like relationship. He was unhappy by the comforting and supportive Dinah, though facing a bit of low self esteem, and instead sought comfort elsewhere. Wolves are not supposed to mate for life, especially amongst the Baroque Beasts, it simply is just not in their nature. Thus he sought another female, much to his mate’s blissful belief in his lies. This situation proceeded through the years as he took on many more smaller events of lovers occurred and yet the trusting Dinah never believed the rumors for a second. That was until she caught him with a pretty little being. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Her fury was Hellish as she used a very untrained ability to control electricity to literally rip her brother and his lover apart. Their limbs were found miles from the actual bodies and her position even further. She fled the land, scarred very lightly from the betrayal and deeply from the first act of shameless killing she had preformed. Since then she was never quite right, though by no means unable to survive because of a few wild hairs. No instead she travels, unsure of how to precede after this large blow to her way of thinking.
