Fur Color-
Gale's coat is the usual mix for a timber wolf; it is a perfected mixture of tans, whites, blacks, and many different shades of browns. Even a stripe of ginger is present on the top most part of his muzzle. His lower chest and underbelly are white, like the first snow fall of the season as is the very tip of his long, almost fluffy tail.
Coat-
In the summer and fall, Gale's coat is shorter but still rather downlike. As for the winter, his fur grows extremely long and takes on an almost shaggy appearance. Come the shedding season, this wolf's coat becomes a ragged mess of loose hair.
Eye Color-
Both eyes are a pale green that contains flecks of gold within different parts of the iris.
Markings/Scars-
There is a visible scar on the base of his back. Gale acquired it while talking to a "companion" of his.

This wolf has the most vicious temper. Even the slightest thing can anger him and send him into a savage rage that quells at different rates every time. Gale is often known as a wild one thanks to his untamable nature. It is believed that he became this cold, mean wolf due to the extermination of most of his family. Truly, Gale can be the most fiery wolf that some may ever meet. His tongue is sharper and faster than his fangs and it is hard for him to become submissive to those he deems unworthy. The only way to weave a way into his small world is to do something that even puts him to shame. Sometimes telling him off will make him respect a wolf since not many even dare to try.

Even with his sharp tongue, Gale prefers to be quiet. Only a few of his words are expressed from his speech. The rest which is a huge portion, is represented by his body language. His green eyes also tend to say things that he won't. When it comes to members of the opposite sex, he is a charmer with words and actions. It is not uncommon for him to break hearts since he is afraid of getting too close and of his own heart becoming broken. He lives by the rule that "the one who cares less holds the most power". In the eyes of the majority of females, he is the project that they just have to fix. Maybe believe that he will change if they get close enough to break down his barriers and learn everything. Whether this is true or not, no one knows. Not even Gale.

Truly, he is headstrong to take on anyone. There is no one that he would not back down from or fight. When it comes to being challenged, Gale accepts immediately. He always keeps to his own traditions when it comes to little scuffles or full blown battles. Never will he be the first to strike for he sees it as dishonourable. Killing a wolf is something he would never dream of doing unless it was absolutely essential and he had no other choice. Is really the most honourable and courageous wolf that some will ever meet. He has good intentions most of the time but just has the worst ways of achieving his goals.

On rare times, Gale can be as docile as a puppy. This happens because there are times when he comes to terms with the death of his family but this illusion is easily erased by something being said wrong or him snapping back to reality. When he is in this state, he sometimes will reveal bits and pieces of his life before he joined the Banishing Winds. If they can get all of the information he has hidden deep in his heart, it may be that they can change him from a wild, angry wolf to one who is kinder and less fierce.

After all of his shields and walls are broken down, he becomes vulnerable. When there is nothing to hide only one will be able to see that Gale truly is a nice wolf when he wants to be but only towards the ones who are closest. Even those who are close to him should be wary, he will still snap. To outsiders, he regains his cold demeanor. It is very hard to get him to become his hidden self since it is buried so deep within himself that even he isn't aware that it still exists.

According to Gale, he harbours a beast in his soul. It is a burden to him that causes him to lash out with a record setting ferociousness. It only comes out when fire runs hot through his veins and he sees red. While at first he'll try to control it, he will eventually just let it have its free roam over his emotions because he grows bored of holding it back. When the monster has taken control of his mind, it destroys all rational thought and he will attack though his tradition of never striking first remains in effect. To get another to attack before he does, he will taunt them on things that he knows will bother them. In this state, it is best to leave him alone and let him quiet down on his own.

Despite the darkness that had seemed to encompassed Gale, he is still very loyal and protective of all those he meets. He holds all those that he protects at a careful distance in order to protect himself and them. Even when wolves don't realize it, his gaze is on them, watching and allowing him to be ready to leap to their defence should trouble arise.




The history of Gale is a work in progress.
