Autumn

Autumn is a Traveling Wolf. [Rules to travelers] [Forum post to request/trade travelers]
Please feel free to breed her

Autumn is the 4th and was the youngest wolf to enter the Perenne pack soon after the Withering. There were no puppsiters in the pack when she joined, but the older wolves tried their best to keep the pup alive. She was too young to understand the damage it caused but could sense the guilt and grief coming from the original pack members.

Once Autumn reached adolescence, she decided her life goal would be becoming the best herbalist in order to prevent another disaster from happening ever again. She informed Sagnant, the leader of the pack, that she would be traveling with Herbert as an apprentice and would come back when she exhausted all the knowledge she could gather. The leader laughed at the idea of preventing the Withering from happening again, but gave her blessing after seeing how determined Autumn was.

Autumn kept her dreams and her home in mind as she traveled. She tried to be brave, especially on those dark nights when she found herself alone. But the days were glorious. She walked until her paws got tired, and her nose was numb from sniffing at every plant she came across. She gathered what she could, thinking some other wolf might be able to help her learn more about them. Lucky for her, she was met one day by a pale, spotted herbalist, who greeted her happily. He knew about traveling wolves; his mother was one of them! A flicker of sadness passed across his cloud-colored face as he thought about how long it had been since he'd seen her, but then he cheered up, bringing Autumn with him to his pack, where he was more than willing to teach her about the plants she'd found, and for the first time since leaving home, Autumn felt safe in the dark.

After saying her farewells to the first herbalist to take her in and teach her she began moving again. Along the way she continued to gather some more plants that she found along the way once again hoping that someone would be able to help her like the last one did. She walked until her paws hurt once again, her nose getting more used to the various scents of the plants. She came close to a territory when she was spotted by a Jacinthe based Lumino eyed she-wolf. Shenta knew about traveling wolves and explained she was out foraging for more herbs before winter came. Autumn was excited as Shenta also said she would teach Autumn more about herbs back at her den. Autumn helped the old herbalist carry her bundle back to the den. She was greeted by the other pack members grew a fancy for one of the packs adolescents. They both turned a year when the snow began to fall and as fate would have it they got together. She found herself with pups, during her stay she stayed with Shenta and was taught about all kinds of different herbs. Gathering up her pups and said her goodbyes thanking Shenta for all the teachings. Shenta supplied her with a small bundle of scattered sticks. "Remember everything I taught you now and good luck on your journey." Autumn nodded and thanked her. "I will and thank you!" As she left she hoped maybe one day to return and see Shenta again although that may not be possible for how old the herbalist was.

The Riparian Woodlands were beautiful, and lush with many wild herbs and flowers as Spring came in full force; leisurely walking along one of the many streams, she breathed in deeply and sighed in content. Soon she came across the scent of an unknown wolf, mixed with freshly picked herbs...she followed that scent and came across a pair of males -one a pretty purple-ish hue with hints of dark blue, and one a speckley light blue! The purple one was the obvious older of the two, and giving instruction to the other about the local herbs! Soon they noticed her and she saw how the old ones eyes were black and white! Introductions came then, and Tsvetan aloud her to tag along on the lesson for the day and come stay at their pack for as long as she wished. His son Renfrew would be taking over as pack Herbalist soon, and was more than happy to have someone along and share information with. Days slowly turned into weeks under Tsvetan's instruction alongside his son, and sometimes this odd female named Nimue would tag along as well -to which she noticed Renfrew gaze longingly at on occasion, and she happily gave him teasing looks and nudges about it. The first day of autumn Renfrew took his place in the pack as lead Herbalist, with Tsvetan stepping down into the calmer roll of Mentor for his final days...and after the pack celebration she felt it was a good a time as any to move on. So she wished them all well, as they did her, and thanked them for their teachings during her stay...even the usually quiet Nimue wished her a fond goodbye, gifting her a cute little crown of Arnica for her journey. ~♥

Autumn had heard stories of The Pack Of Singing Winds. Well, not the pack exactly, but what she was looking for lead him there.

She'd heard a gorgeous howl echoing through the forest, and had responded with her own howl. She traveled through the forest in search of the wolf she had howled with. Autumn finally found the wolf; a gorgeous golden wolf who introduced herself as saoirse. Saoirse brought her back to the Pack Of Singing Winds.

Autumn was enchanted by the female, and they soon grew close while they were together. The would spend hours together just talking about anything, really. But Autumns time with the pack soon came to an end as winter fell, and she had to leave.

Before she went, however, Saoirse used all the love she had for Autumn to make it so that where ever she walked, plants would spring, so that she would never forget the pack and her time there.

Lore: Autumn didn't really have much to do as she arrived from the pack of Singing Wind's to Revenge. She didn't really know what she was doing here. She wasn't one to take Revenge. Autumn wandered about, just enough to eat and stay occupied for a bit on her journey.Whisper, the lead wolf, admitted that they haven't had a traveler in a while. Autumn found herself sleeping outside, with the other traveler Aileen. With nothing to do, Aileen and Autumn found themselves collecting Sticks and Bones together, both uncomfortable despite the welcome and care they offered. The wolves of Revenge were bent on getting revenge on those who hurt them. They both hurried through their stay as quickly as they dared. Autumn only wanted bones to keep, not wasting time with stick's.

lore: Alieen had taken the lead of finding a new pact to stay with, while Autumn trailed closely behind. both wolves still had a passion for the various sticks, stones and bones among their walks- keeping whatever they liked most to their new home. while walking along the empty plain of the grasslands, Alieen had found a sent of a carcass; while the smell wasn't entirely fresh it wasn't old either. Alieen hurried towards the source with passion while Autumn followed with much more caution for the ravens that followed around them were not familiar. Both wolves found the source of the smell, and it was an old elk carcass! both wolves quickly taken advantage of the opportunity to chow down regardless of the risk it may bring. Alieen even found a big meaty bone to savor on.

after sharing the meal, the two wolves went to sleep, resting under the warmth of the summer sun.
but not for too long. Alieen and Autumn were startled awake when a kindness of ravens circled high above them, cawing and squawking various sorts of melodies. Then came the thumping, the only kind of rumble that follows a stampede- and just like that an entire herd of deer's came charging out of the nearby forest, bleating and snorting while a small group of wolves follow behind. Alieen and Autumn watch from the side lines while the other wolves attempt to take down one of the weaker deer's that had to be left behind. of course, the deer put up a heavy fight by knocking a reddish- brown wolf to the dirt and darted into the direction of Alieen and Autumn. both wolves, instead of getting out of the way to avoid injury charged head on, causing the deer to stumbling back, slip and fall. the hunting party howled in join and eagerly asked Alieen and Autumn to come back to their pack and have a feast with them.
they agreed.

After she had left the previous pack Autumn spent time studying the local fauna as she traveled. She had not been paying attention when she quite litteraly stumbled into another wolf. Could she even call the thing before her a wolf? It turned to her, massive dark form looming over and blank expressionless eyes staring down at her through its bonset mask. Her body froze instinctively making herself smaller and she watched the feathery black figure lift its head to peer past her. Autumn half expected to see another terrifying creature but instead she was greeted by the sight of a rather handsome wolf.
"Don't mind my apprentice, he may look scarry but he's mostly harmless." The handsome wolf said striding over. Autumn turned back to look at the so called apprentice who was now looking away almost sheepishly. Huh. The two, or rather the eldest, introduced themselves as Charon and Susanoo. They were friendly and invited Autumn to stay with their pack for a while, they even introduced her to the packs herbalist, Leto. She learned a great many things and came to understand the "blessing" that had befallen the pack.

Autumn smelled something delicious wafting through the trees but couldn't pinpoint what it was. Pushing past the bushes, she finds a pregnant wolf coordinating with a strange fox-like creature. There are mounds of food to the side of them.

After conversing, Autumn establishes the wolf, Giselle, is selling meat with her partner, Eden. Travelling wasn't much of a profiting business, so Autumn didn't have the funds to buy their wares. Eden and Giselle shared a knowing look and gave her a carcass for free.
