To others:
A brute of a wolf above all else, absolutely a good fighter by the look of her, but perhaps not the brightest individual that can be found. Definitely an asset for a smaller group of wolves as one of the heavy hitters.
To the Group:
A female not to be tested, Acantha's temper and tendency use her teeth to drive home a point has cultivated a rather intimidating image. She is a blunt, honest creature who shows no interest for the subtle manipulation of the hierachy, preferring to be straightforward rather than dancing around a topic. A surprisingly clever wolf whose ferocity often hides her intelligence. An exellent fighter who can match stronger wolves in a direct confrontation and hold her own against others, she is a loyal asset in battle.

Thoughts On The Pack:
As one of the wolves who had first joined The Southern Winds, Acantha has a slight bit more context to the situation. The Everfree wolves are her enemy and their pack stands as a symbol of that, they were the ones who decided that her Commander not be their Lord. It is a cruel decision to build a wolf's hopes and dreams up to just snatch it away from beneath their nose, a decision and an action that she finds distasteful. She does not like them in the least.
Appearance:

There is a rather intimidating characteristic to this creature that is primarily centered upon her size, standing at a height of 33 inches at the shoulder and weighing in at an impressive 130 pounds, Acantha is unusually large for a female and of a rather muscular build that is typically sighted in the males of the species. being broad in the chest and shoulder with a powerful neck and possessing hardened ropes of muscle hidden beneath her thick coat, it is plain to see that even though she lacks the sheer size and bulk of males that are larger and stronger than she, she is a formidable sight.
Acantha's coat is a striking one that is distinctive among a crowd of common greys and dark near-blacks and tawny browns, an untainted white that seeks to rival freshly fallen snow in its brightness, a rather wintry coloration that this female carries within the densely packed fur. Her pelt is one that is rather reflective of the light in the environment, the manner in which it occasionally displays a warmer hue or a cooler one that is not typically seen of her.
The she-wolf's eyes are darker than what is usually displayed by most other wolves, a deep amber hue with orange infused into the brownish color, creating a shade that occasionally appears to flash an ominious red when the sunlight is caught just right. It is an intense color that she bears, one that fits in well with the brightness of the fur surrounding the eyes that hold an underlying ferocity within.
The manner in which Acantha moves showcases the strength of her form, the ripple of muscle beneath fur and the measured way that she steps, as if every movement has been considered for a brief moment. It is a deliberate way of moving, one in which she typically raises her head high in confidence and steps with a careful paw despite her size, and it is rare to see the clumsy motions of panic or the mincing gait of uncertainty enter her strides. The distinctive grace of a warrior is bestowed upon her movements, a certain fluidity that speaks to a violent energy tightly bundled and just waiting to be released in a sudden leap forth towards or in a surprisingly quick twist to meet an opponent face to face.

Personality:
This female has a rather prickly temperment, as sharp as the needle-pointed thorns from a rose and twice as biting, she seems to have no softened edges to her personality and that makes her a unpleasant creature to be around if those around her do not make an effort to understand her. It is perhaps her irritability that hones the natural astringency into something different, for she is not a passive female and is rather quick to show her fangs when presented with an insult or slight, having a fiercer temperment than what some would possess. Quicker to anger and eager to engage in battle, it is as if fire is lodged in the marrow of her bones and the seething heat of it runs in her blood.
Forgiveness is a trait that this creature was not blessed with, she does not forget wrongs easily and she will remember them for as long as she lives, it is a fool who approaches her for mercy when she had been made an enemy of in times past, for it will not be found. When she is roused to anger due to the actions of another, it is a dangerous sight to behold. It is a rare experience for Acantha to actually forgive another for a crime committed against her, there are many factors that play into chance of being forgiven and into being scorned, and typically most end up on the second end of the spectrum or being determined to be in a more neutral place. Nonetheless, she is a rather nasty enemy when another has given her a reason to remember them for it, she morphs from that distinctive sharpness into something more ruthless when she has been provoked.
One of the more positive traits to this female is her ability of perception, she is an intelligent creature despite what others may think, and is quite observant. While perhaps not the most vigiliant of creatures, not much gets past her when she is keeping a sharp eye and keen ear out for approaching trouble, and she maintains that alertness more often than what is necessarily warranted.
Acantha does not have any fondness for the intricacies of political backstabbing, she is of a more honestly blunt character and it shows with her manner of acting, and her already short tolerance for unpractical things frays even more when another soul tries to dance around a topic instead of just spitting it out. She is a rather honest female, and has no interest in sugarcoating her words and opinions, she believes in the raw truth despite how it may negatively affect others, though she has learned by now when to keep some of her thoughts to herself until a more prudent time.
This female is a loyal creature, once she decides to commit to something or someone, then she is in it all the way. It may take a bit for her to truly decide whether she wants to involve herself in a situation, to pledge herself to a leader, but once she does, then she is one of the most faithless wolves that can be found under the sun. She wholly embraces those who have persisted in making her their friend, and she would love her family absolutely and do anything for them, she is not a female who does things half-way, and it is apparent in her manner of friendship and of loyalty.

It's 5:57 AM here, nighty night time for me
Did you know there used to be a subspecies of gray wolf that had darker fur? The extinct Florida Black Wolf.
I legitimately have several chickens, I'm not just saying that for the word. They're nice.
