[&]List Of Personality: Despite his age, Badger is youthful, bright-eyed and curious elf. He can be noisy and laugh a lot and heartily, but of course only when it is allowed and appropriate. He is protective of his loved ones, not necessarily very wise, but aiming there and trying his best to learn more every day. On the more negative side, he can forget the rest of the world, when the work consumes him. Badger can also be very stubborn, hot-headed and even rowdy, whenever he feels he is not listened to or agreed with. Sometimes he gets too excited and talks with his fists first.

[&]History: Badger was born into another splinter tribe, that lived quite far away from the known Wolfriders. His birthtribe lived in a large forest of evergreen pines and spruces. During Badger's lifetime, the elves of the evergreen had to move out their homes, because of spreading human habitats. Eventually, the elves had to fight for their living space, it happened two times during Badger's lifetime, and even that was two too many.

Badger’s childhood was pretty uneventful. He did not have quite the same lean bodybuild as his agemates, so he often got a little bit of teasing about it, that is, until he won every one of his age mates in wrestling. After that, he was pretty much appreciated as a strong friend and a good ally in mock-hunting, treasure-hunts and in the games of young elves.

He learned to be very smart and crafty what it came to weapons, as his father Hail tried to teach him all he knew about the weapons and materials available. Badger’s mother, however, was not glad to have such a son so different to her. Badger’s mother was more of a poetic kind, story-teller and softer female, so a brawly son with bruises and cuts was not to her liking. Nightlily also was not too much of a motherly type to tend the wounds.

Badger grew up to become a strong warrior, but not entirely smart. His life has given him a lot of scars on his muscular body, cuts, burns and a little bit of mauled ear. Luckily, this has not affected his mind, which lives sharply in the Now.

When Badger had already reached full adulthood, gaining more and more years under his belt enough to grow the first tufts of facefur, his father Hail went missing. It was wintertime and even if the warrior wanted to go to find his father, he was stopped, for the tribe did not want him to die in the coldness. He left during the season of new green, even if he knew Hail was already gone for now.

During this expedition, he bumped into Wolfdancer's splintering tribe and accompanied them for a little while, since they were going to same direction. However, the little while grew longer, and longer and longer, until Badger forgot he had ever been on a quest of his own.

Adjusting to a new tribe was easy, in the end. He found a lot of new playmates, but was mostly interested in Mistblossom, who was a tough nut to crack. Keen courting at the time of Mindlurker's rampage got the two elves together, even if they had to spend some time apart because of disagreements. When they finally reconciled after Mindlurker incident, the deal was sweetened with Recognition and promise of new life.

Soon after, Badger was appointed to become the new chief of the wolfriders. With new duties, the future seems bright.

[&]Body: Fair skin, lots of scars.
[&]Build/height: Stocky, muscular, strong, in all ways non-lithe. Height is slightly above average.
[&]Hair: Short-ish, swept back, black with light silvery stripes, already growing some sideburns.
[&]Eyes: Golden, deep yellow.
[&]Picture: N/A

[&]Bonded animal: Bondless at the moment -- GW is dead.

Great White, a somewhat large, light-coated male, in the middle of the pack's ranking.

Before Great White, there was Swiftwind, who got trapped and killed in the forest fire. Swiftwind was a loyal friend, strong wolf, even if he was the smallest one of the litter, when he was a cub.

Before Swiftwind, Badger had had an elder wolf companion, Mudnose, who faced the natural death. Mudnose was a little cowardly wolf, very low in the rank. Badger bonded with the wolf at the late state of the wolf's life, so he did not manage to share much time with the wolf, before the age took its toll on Mudnose.
