Character Personality: Snare is a quiet laid back person. She keeps back away from others because she doesn't even know who herself is. She can't remember anything at all from her birth, up to her fifteenth birthday. She assumes that is the day she met ship wreck, and was found by a perverted human. Though in wolf form at the time, he did various things to her, and even more when he learned she could turn to a human. She was forced back into herself, and for months was an empty shell. Finally she snapped after one episode that had been worse than usual. She snuck up on the man at night, and transformed into a wolf. He heard and started to talk to her. She walked up to him, and snapped his neck with her claws, it was the first time she had tasted human flesh... and she liked it. She loves human meat, but will only eat human that are killed, she won't kill any directly. She is nice, kind, and gentle, but also fierce, secretive, hidden, and cold to the bone, not physically, but emotionoly. Snare does not talk much, and it takes her a long time, if ever to warm up to others. After what was done to her, and that she can remember nothing of where she came from, she stays within herself, and trusts no one. Some may no her for years, but no know what she truly thinks like. She doesn't make friends much, she just hides in herself. Confused, lost, and frightened in this strange world.

Character History: Snare was born in a far of land, some say it was destroyed during a storm which she was the only survivor. Taken on a boat by her parents and friends, they fled the land, but were hit by a storm so feirce, none of its magnitude had been seen in years. A massive tsunami struck the edge of her ship and shattered the vessel into pieces. She swam desperately, trying to find her friends and family. Lightning struck nearby, and the wooden remains were set ablaze. She heard the howl of her dear little sister and brother and swam to their aid, but at that time, an explosion whipped through the air. A bolt of lightning struck right where she swam. What she remembered from that was a blast, an explosion, and darkness. The next thing she remembered was sand, bird screeches in the air, and fresh cold air. Confused, she tried to stand up, but fell over, she had no strength, and worst of all, she had no idea where she was. She knew it wasn't her homeland, actually, she didn't even know who she was or where she came from.
Snare shook her head, "Where am I... who am I." she said frightened. She ran around and howled, it was the only thing she knew to do. She looked around and saw someone, a human walk towards her.
"Ah... look what we have here, a lovely wolf." he said.
"Who are you?" she demanded, "Do you know who I am? Why am I here. Answer me!" she demanded, shaking. She couldn't remember anything, just an explosion and then her face brushing against all that sand.
The man walked up to here, a greedy disgusting look to his face, "Oh, my name is not important little wolf. Or don't worry, I'd love to help you."
Snare didn't know why, but that man gave her the creeps. She shook slightly, but walked over to him when suddenly he grabbed her, "You will come with me won't you wolf? What's your name?"
"I don't know... what do you want with me, did you bring me here?"
The man only smirked, "Why little wolf as for your name, I don't know, only you know that. Now, come with me, that is why you are here." he said with a greedy smile.
Snare backed up, she didn't like the look in his eye. She growled but said confued, "I'll come with you... will you... will you give me a name? I don't no mine."
The man patter her back slightly which made her walked confused, the way he patted her back... "You can be called Meryea then, such a pretty name don't you think?"
"Sure..." Snare said confused. She kept asking the man where she was and where she came from, but as soon as they returned to his house, things turn to the worse. He grabbed her and chained her up. He did several horrible things to her when she slept, and some when she was asleep. She started to shake and snap at him, but he put a muzzle on her and continued his evil ways. Finally, she broke her chains, but in an odd way, she turned into a human. She didn't know how, but she tapped into some strange magic, which she assumes came from her home land. Snare sttod up, the chains to small for a human. She tried to run from the house, but tripped, the two legs were too hard for her, she would have to learn to walk on two legs. She managed to transform back, but the human, a man named Thor walked down and saw her transform. He dragged her upstairs, and whipped her until she turned back into a human. Several times she tried to end her life, but failed each time. She was so shrunk into herself, she didn't even try to figure out her past, and didn't even bother anymore fighting against Thor. She was so shrunk back into herself, she stopped talking for months, even to herself.
One day it was so bad, that is lasted for hours, and she eventually cried herself to sleep. She needed to get out of this cruel world, even if it meant murder. She shook violently in the night and woke up with only one word in her mind. Murder. Snare walked up to where Thor slept, he thought she was too lost and lonely, and afraid to do anything. But he did not see the murder in her eyes. She walked over to him and waited patiently for him to wake up. He always went down to her and three in the morning.
"Ah, my little lovely, what are you doing up." he said in a nasty voice. Without saying anything, Snare snapped, she lunged at him and forced him to the ground, and with one violent motion, snapped his neck in her jaws. She felt the hot blood run down her through and tongue. She lapped it up, she hadn't ate in weeks, and the adrenalin rush wasted her reserves of energy even more. She only had one meal choice, Thor. She begun to eat the human until only a skeleton, intestines, and fecal matter remained. With that, she ran out of the building, one thing unknown to her, it was not Thor she killed, but his wife. Snare heard Thor talking, but in her thrist for revenge, killed the wrong person. Thor fled for his life, and was never seen again. He did call guards, but Snare was long gone.

For the next few months she wandered the land. Evading guards that were told to hunt down a wolf that could turn into a human. She stayed hidden from the world, refusing to meet others after what Thor had done. She feared others, not to mention Thor's wife did nothing to help her, and Thor's friends did the same to Snare then he did. Snare officially named herself Snare one day when hunting a deer. She heard humans talking about a wolf that kept stealing their deer, and to set up traps. She knew they were talking about her. She knew that they would kill her if they saw her, so she set a trap. She turned into a human, stole some clothes and put them on. She managed to learn to walk and went to the humans. They started to flirt with her, but she would have nothing with it. She told them to follow her, and when they got drunk, she set her trap. She pretended to get friendly with her and told them she'd be their friend if they would go get some meat for her. Stupidly, they stumbled into their own snares they had set for her. She heard them spring up, and it was like music to her hears as those humans screamed. She turned into a wolf, gathered her clothes into a bag and walked over to the humans.
"Revenge is sweet." she said.
"You can talk... who are you. Don't hurt us please!" they screamed.
"Too late humans. You sick vile swine will die just like he did." Snare walked up to them, and was ready to kill them, when a giant trap sprang from the ground. The two humans were crushed, but a giant metal snare went around her. She remembers it well, its power, its strength, its coldness, yes, that would be her name, Snare, for Snares trapped, strong, powerful, and cold. Just like she, strong, cold, and trapped inside herself, and knew almost nothing about even herself.
She fought to break free, which she finally did, with help by a dark elf. The dark elf stared down at her but he did nothing at first until he said.
"Wolf, I can sense you distress. I know what has happened to you."
"No you don't! You don't know anything! I don't even know you!" Snare snapped.
The man grinned evil and said to her, "You can guard your througs well, I can break them though. I have trained in the art of taking over minds, I can read yours as easily as any others. Though I doubt another could break into your mind, I will help to fortify your defenses."
"How can I trust you. What is your name!" Snare demanded.
The dark elf walked towards her and said in the ancient language, "I will not harm you like he has." Then he said, "My name... is Crimson. You can trust me, because I am in need for someone with your skill. You see, I am at war, I need your help young wolf. You may not know, but I can tell a hidden powers lies deep within you."
"If I help you... will you... will you help me have revenge?" she asked quietly.
Crimson smirked, "Of course. Snare, I must go once I'm done with your lesson. There are villains out who wish for my death. Be careful, for you are right, this is an evil, land. Full of evil, they are against me, for they do not wish to surrender their corruption."
"Really? I thought... I thought everyone was like Thor."
"Oh no Snare, they aren't. My followers and I are not. We will to bring peace to this land. And to the lands beyond." Crimson said.
Snare looked at Crimson, though he said it in the ordinary language, she was sure he told the truth, "I believe you."
"Good."
For weeks Snare and Crimson had lessons in mind defense. Though she did not grow close to him, she knew somehow he was in the right. She wanted to help him. But one day, they training camp was attacked by several dragons, and a few humans. The ravaged the camp, the green dragon called Equinox said Crimson had attacked their friends and slaughtered countless innocence, but Snare knew better. She knew Crimson would never do that. After the attack, Crimson went into a rage for revenge. Snare could understand his anger. Oddly, she was growing close to the dark elf.
"Snare, Snare, Snare, this will end up well don't you think?" he asked her one day while she was in human form and standing over a lake. Unknown to her, he had breached her mind, and was reading her thoughts and slightly forced her to believe him more, but did not take control of her. If he tried, she would know who he truly was and would hate him.
"I do as well Crimson." she smiled at him. She felt something odd happen, a feeling she never had before. She did not see Crimson's evil smirk.
"Snare, I want to make you a promise. I will be with you for the rest of your life, we are of the same cause. You will serve me, and I will not allow any harm to come one you. I know what your past is, even before you met ship wreck. If you join me, I will tell you." If Crimson could ever show sympathy, it was then, but it wasn't. He disguised his words. He knew her inner strength, and he did not care for Snare. He just wanted to use her, have a servant that would one day be more powerful than he was.
She smiled at him a deep smile, though secluded, she was coming out to him. Then, that cursed green dragon flew towards them. As she begun to say the words in the ancient language, a bolt of lightning struck right in the middle from the dragon, and an arrow flew down. She was blasted into the lake, and when she came up, Crimson was gone. She wept, but a surge of hated ran through her. She thought Crimson was dead, and a new wave of hated ran through her, she would kill that dragon and human archer. She swore it, though not in the Ancient Language.

Weapons: Teeth, claws, and her sword in human form. Crimson made it for her, for she is now usually in her human form when she met him, but when he vanished after the attack, she went back mostly to her wolf form. She keeps her human clothes and sword in a bag tied to her back in wolf form.

Likes: Nature, seclusion, and hidden areas. She likes to be away from people.

Dislikes: People, Equinox, anyone who comes up to her, and those she can't trust, which is all.

Animal Companions: None

Character's Physical Description: In wolf form

Human form, a middle height beutiful woman. She has long black hair and deep brown eyes. She is slender, and her hair is wavy. Though her face looks calm, its usually full of mistrust, hatred, and oddly longing for friends, though she bitterly denies it. Snare's teeth in human form are oddly sharp, and she refuses to eat fruit and vegetables, even in human form. Her clothes in human form are nothing special, she stole them from Thor's house when she escaped him.

Dreams for the Future: To find Crimson, kill Equinox, and find about her past.
