Zenith Sunstrike ✦

Third leader of the Chinquapin Pack
Daughter of leader Magnolia Sunstrike, sister of head pupsitter Lirio Sunstrike

Inherited the pack only a few months after her first birthday. Unsure of herself and embittered by her unwanted role, she let her uncles and aunts make most decisions as long as she could. When pushed, Zenith grew to be a distant but dependable leader.

Liked to get into scraps and brawls with other wildlife, like her mother did - how she avoided heavier scarring is anyone's guess.

Despite her somber temperament, Zenith was more tolerant of stranger wolves than her mother was, leading to much new blood being introduced to the pack.

Zenith found companionship in Aster Petalwhirl, a shy and quiet wolf who worked as a pupsitter and mentor. The two liked to decorate each other's fur with flowers in the spring and summer. Though Zenith's work was always far clumsier than Aster's, Aster wore her crumpled flowers with pride.

Uninterested in having pups of her own, Zenith chose her nephew Menon Scalewing as her heir for his strength and careful sensibility.

Zenith passed away in the spring, surrounded by freshly-picked flowers.
