Character Name: Charlotte Lucas

Date & Place of Birth: 3 January 1982, Ashland, Kentucky

Character Type: Lukoi

Character Occupation & Skills: Tough girl, jack of trades. Char can not only put you out with a roundhouse kick, she can also grill a damn fine steak, change your oil and instruct you on the fine art of dumpster diving. She's never been one to settle into any particular occupation or skill set for long. Currently Char works as part of the Katrina clean-up crew while acting as a short order cook for the pack more often than not.

Abilities: Charlotte is graced with the typical infection benefits; enhanced senses, strength, speed and the ability to heal most major injuries. It isn't all cake, though; Char has got to be four-legged and furry once a month, though oddly, this doesn't bother her much as the allergy to silver. Yep, this tomboy had only one concession to anything resembling female vanity and that was a fondness for silver chains and rings. She's probably better off that no one in the pack is aware of her pre-lukoi affection for jewelry. It would totally ruin her image.

While she isn't an alpha werewolf by any means, Char has an unusually easy time shifting. This is likely due to the fact she doesn't fight the beast, she embraces it. She's got enough control to shift her hands into claws, but that's the limit, and lately even that's been slipping. Char is just a little too eager to go full wolf, and as a result her half-form doesn't arrive at the party too often.

Where Charlotte really excels is her sense of smell. She's the pack scavenger, and there isn't a human, animal or missing sock that she hasn't been able to find. Charlotte could easily put a bloodhound to shame. As a result, she's awfully good at reading people and is the first person to recognize a liar. There is also something to be said about her speed; being small, she doesn't pack the biggest punch, but she's quick enough to have you bleeding before you've even realized she's touched you.

Appearance: A tiny dynamo at five foot even, Charlotte has got the presence of someone twice that size. She's got the appearance of a pretty girl, with long, dark hair and big brown eyes. It can be terribly easy to dismiss her as harmless. Hell, Char would be downright beautiful if she bothered to wear something other than the ratty jeans and wife beaters she's become overly fond of. Attempts to get Char in anything even resembling a dress have ended bloody on more than one occasion. The girliest Char ever gets is the occasional braided ponytail and the extra effort she makes once a week to get the dirt out from under her nails.

As a wolf, Char has got the appearance of a stocky, square wolf hybrid and tends to look clumsy when compared to her lean and slightly thinner packmates. Her coat is brindled and consists mostly of dark browns with a sprinkling of grays and blacks and her eyes bleed over to amber during the change. Having spent a little too much time in wolf form has given way to certain animal characteristics remaining when Char shifts back to human. Her nails are thicker, curved and while blunt retain a sharp enough point and her canines are elongated. Lately it's been noted that Char's ears seem to be a little longer and a bit pointed. She's been making Vulcan jokes in a lame attempt to cover it up.

Personality & History: Charlotte is the original tough girl, all scraped knees, bloody noses and a-smiling all the while. She'll punch your lights out and promptly offer you a beer after, and she'll be the first one to call you an idiot and the last one to leave your side. There is little enough known about her past and Charlotte prefers to keep it that way. She isn't trying to be mysterious, but the cigar burns along her arms suggest that it's something she'd rather forget. No one knows exactly when Charlotte started running as a wolf and rather it's like she's always been one.

She's been friends with Raul the moment he joined the Legendbreakers pack and she was the first one to stand by his side when he opted to leave. Charlotte's loud, a little bossy and at times she tends to be the pack bully. Still, she's infinitely good-natured and if she's being a little too stubborn she won't take it personal if you smack her across the nose. There's only one sore subject with Charlotte and that's the matter of her height. She tends to suffer from the typical Napoleon complex with hilarious results (though no one has yet to say this to her face).

Despite her frequent bullying and borderline cruel bluntness, Char is very charismatic. While she is most assuredly lacking in tact (and at times, manners), Char is the person you want at the party. She isn't afraid to make an ass out of herself, and more importantly she isn't scared to laugh herself sick. Char's laughter is loud, from the heart and generally infectious. Ultimately, it's her proverbial scarred-over, thick skin that make people want to stick close, because Char radiates the bad ass vibe that says she's been there and done that. Which is why she's become the unofficial leader of the pack's "Teen Girl Squad", because part of everyone wants to be tough and Charlotte's got that in spades.

Strong as she is, Charlotte's biggest flaw is that she's been running. It was easy to accept her beast, to run with it and let everything else go. Being a lycanthrope gave way to a physical change, something she can deal with, something she can accept. Anything that can be touched with her hands isn't a threat, and unfortunately memories can't. Things wouldn't be so terrible if they ended with the scars on her body, but then there is the stuff in her head, the things she can't touch and are constantly running slow motion across her eyes. The only way to deal with that is not to be human for awhile, and it's unfortunate that Charlotte has a choice in the matter.
