Fortunately, the friends he did make, he made for life and would also support them, even if they chose not to follow the wisest paths. However, after his capture, Greenthorn found himself breaking under the pressure and, in order to protect his elven self, reverted to his more lupine instincts. Now he's more wolf than elf, aggressive and wild, and has developed the tendency of escaping into his head, dreaming of his lifemate and the cub he never got to see, when things get too tough.   History: Greenthorn was the second cub born to his parents Longdusk and Redberry. He was an easy cub to raise, though he had trouble with socializing with the rest of the tribe. When his little sister was born, Greenthorn was quite proud of her, especially when it was learned that she was a plantshaper. The first true friend he made outside of his family was Wolfears hundreds of years after his birth. Though Wolfears was much younger than him, Greenthorn was happy to let Wolfears lead all of their hunts, supporting him with his archery. He tended to feed his friend's ego by acknowledging his superior skills, but didn't see it as a bad thing; just because he acknowledged that Wolfears was better, didn't mean that he himself wasn't a good hunter. Greenthorn lived through the loss of both parents and his elder sister Bloodivy, but that only drew him closer to the sister he had left; it was that bond with Strangleweed that helped him get through losing Wolfears when he disappeared. It was after Wolfears went missing that Greenhorn befriended Whisperleaf, whom he Recognized years later. Greenthorn was happy in his Recognition and agreed to lifemate with Whisperleaf without hesitation. For the length of the pregnancy, Greenthorn looked after Whisperleaf, but a year after they'd Recognized, Greenthorn was captured by trolls while he'd gone out to find some meat for his lifemate. Greenthorn was stunned to find Wolfears alive, but his joy over rediscovering his friend was overwhelmed by the realization that the trolls were going to be keeping them indefinitely. Initially, Greenthorn made several crazy attempts to escape and get back to his lifemate who was expecting his cub despite the warnings of his friend. The resulting punishment wounded Greenthorn so badly that, to keep from giving in completely to despair, he allowed his wolfsblood to gain greater control of him. As such, he became like a wild animal, snarling and biting at any non-elf who dared to come too close, and often receiving more punishment because of it. But that didn't keep the once calm elf from continuing to fight against his suppressors. On good days, Greenthorn can manage remember his lifemate and his own soulname; dreaming of Whisperleaf and their cub is the only thing that keeps him from becoming fully lost in his wolfsblood. He rarely speaks---communicating mostly in wolf body language---and doesn't send at all unless someone sends to him. Even then his answers are always as short as possible. In his more rational moments, Greenthorn fears losing himself completely to his wolfsblood and, in the dark, hoplessness of the troll caverns, it's always a possibility.
