Truthfully she often acts as if she has no magic gift unless some small repair is needed. Patient enough to stand still in the river for hours. Doesn't get along with cubs well. When motionless she only Sends..and her sudden 'striking' motions to grab fish startles even those expecting it. Her sense of humour can lead to a well timed, always unclaimed, prank upon her age mates. Very feminine in mannerism. She enjoys girl-bonding; often to talk about the males.. poking at Preybird… and giggling with those closest to her. It would shock her male friends to see her so and she wants to avoid having to beat them for teasing, gentle or not. And she is vain of her hair. Her two best friends are Greendream and Silhouette: wanting to den with both for different reasons. Even if Greendream says the nickname of chill-fur isn’t bothering Iceglare feels it does. As lovemates or like litter-mates she’d like the herbalist warm. And for Silhouette, Iceglare finds her harsh self-image as an open-wound. Perhaps sharing a den with a friend could at least put a scab on that.   History: Her parents knew she'd have a gift for plants and named her Vine. They would be disappointed in her lack for many years to come. Vine, living in the Now, didn't notice more then worried concern. Her Soulname Search at age 19 was uneventful save that she had vanished so long most of the tribe had thought her dead. All she's say was she lost track of the time. The fact that she spent much of her time observing the fishing humans (she otherwise had no interest in them), experimenting, and coming back only when it began to become too cold, is her own secret. She pestered many elders to further knowledge with the river. And having gotten what she wished she'll never go near the humans again. A joking tribemate mentioned how she wouldn't melt the ice faster by glaring at it that winter. Another teased that it only added to her growing pre-mature silvering hair. For two days she snapped at them, sulking, even as she'd tried to decide on an adultname. Finally she chose Iceglare to show she wasn't truly hurt by the playful teasing. It didn't hurt she was slightly vain about her hair. It was late in life when she finally came into her plant-shaping. If she could casually help by helping repair tree dens, or strengthen the wood for weapons, she will. However she left much of this to Strangleweed and often requires the better plant-shapers help anyway. She had supported Chief Flare’s trickery upon the trolls, just not the method which lacked either good timing or style. And the death and him and others only enforced her thoughts of ‘stillness-then-strike’ such as she uses while fishing. If they ever try to speak with the trolls she feels the scouts should first discover their traps. Disarm them. Then think of opening trade again. Wolf Friend   Name: Riverjaws   Rank: Mid Age: 9   Gender: Female Personality: While she gets along with her bond she doesn't enjoy the boredom of watching when she could be hunting. Often joins the hunters, then rests near her elf-bond (to nap, groom).
