[edit] General

[edit] Appearance

Huck is lithe and scruffy, pretty much, with unbrushed dark brown hair and green eyes, and stands at five foot eight or nine. She wears old hand-me-down clothing and ripped-up jeans, usually a couple sizes too big for her so she doesn't have to worry about finding new clothing every year. The clothing tends to be functional – tanktops, t-shirts, overly large jackets, loose jeans – and is usually dirty. She's usually kind of dirty as well, and thin as a result of not eating enough (given that she can't afford it – she can certainly pack it away when she's got it). And generally unkempt. And generally looks like the little hooligan she is.

[edit] Personality

Huck is snappish, domineering, and more than a little bossy. She's grown up taking care of her packmates (whoever that may be at the time, though the pack she's got now she's had for awhile), making sure that they're fed and clothed and don't get into too much trouble, like being shot or doing too many drugs or getting caught by the police for stealing. And like locking themselves up when the full moon comes. That sort of thing. So she's kind of adopted the 'I know better, listen to me' attitude with most people she runs across, even some adults, despite her age.

She's scrappy, too, and doesn't hesitate to throw a punch when the situation dictates it (and even sometimes when it doesn't). She's never had any formal training in fighting, but can hold her own just fine, especially with a knife tucked on her person somewhere. She's a little less sure about guns, though she knows how to use them, simply because they're loud and that sends off her 'flee!' wolf reflex.

Under the scrappy, bossy exterior is a lonely little girl who deeply cares about her brother and pack. She's pretty funloving when she doesn't have to worry about things, but she had a tendency to fret over things even when there's nothing she can do about them. She's also a daredevil and a regular little monkey, and doesn't think twice about wandering into places she really shouldn't be just to have a look around (and probably encourage her friends to come with her).

[edit] History

Huck grew up in the slums of Chicago, daughter to a single mom who didn't really know what to do with kids. She had one brother, three years younger than her; her father ran off after he was born, and her mother's way of dealing with this was to blame Huck and her brother, Billy, for it. Huck tolerated it, escaping to the streets more often than not (school had long become something they didn't argue about anymore) and forming a close friendship with a few other werewolves and some shapeshifters, which she soon took charge of and who became her Pack. The only reasons she ever went home were to sleep, see what was in the fridge, and take care of Billy.

This changed ever so slightly when her mother put her head through a wall and Huck left for good, taking Billy and a few of her closer Packmates (who were willing to go and had nothing to lose) with her into inner Chicago. Which promptly started to explode with weird Rift activity. So she and her Pack have been running around taking advantage of the relative anarchy and have currently found a small haven in the owners of a tiny restaurant/bar, who let the kids have their spare back room (and do their best to keep them out of trouble) in exchange for small jobs around the kitchen and a promise to attend school enough to appease the social workers into not coming around (which is really what Huck likes as well – the less people know she's not living with her parent, the better – though really, she'd rather not be at school at all).
