nickname/s;; jethrow
age;; twenty-three
sexuality;; heterosexual
race;; human
affiliation;; enjoys wolves and wants to become one.
Likes;;

• jethrow tends to be a very lone wolf - metaphorically, of course. she doesn't have many friends and never really has, but that's what happens when you grow up in a small town where everyone hates you and judges you based on your family's reputation. she likes her space, and because of her separation from society, she's actually very outgoing when she meets people.
  
• she's a troublemaker, and always has been. when you live in a small town as a human, you have to find your own things to do. she's always on the hunt for something to get her adrenaline pumping. it's why she does sports and is very in shape. she's got a bit of a record behind her but she gets off pretty easy because she's a pretty girl and her parents have a decent influence on the town.
  
• as blunt and rough as she can be with humans, she's a very gentle person towards animals. they're always fond of her - she's not quite sure why. animals rarely bite her or do anything mean to her. she's a true wild thing and has always been at one with nature. because of it, she tends to love animals more than people at lot of the time.
  
• despite her complete desire to be independent, jethrow likes to be around others, but not in big crowds. she enjoys being one on one with some guy who's willing to listen to her silly stories. she's a hopeless romantic and always wants some guy to sweep her off her feet and be as romantic as possible, even though she kind of finds it cheesey.
  
• the idea of being able to run out on your own to the call of the wild has always fascinated jethrow. there's a desire to become something so instinctual and animalistic that it drives her to hang around werewolves and unfortunately interrogate them or try and win them over. her tactics vary.
  

Dislikes;;

• for some strange reason, jethrow's never comfortable in big crowds. being around so many people talking at once gives her a headache if she doesn't have one thing to focus on. having multiple people talking to her is rather frustrating, as well, but she can still multitask pretty well. as long as she has someone to grip her attention in a big crowd, she can be calm.
  
• despite being a seemingly fragile little thing, she's pretty feisty. her feistiness can get pretty nasty, though, so she likes to put on a smile and pretend she's not getting angry. getting angry is the last thing on her to-do list unless you really deserve it.
  
• when she's busy smiling and acting like she doesn't have a care in the world, jethrow is usually underestimated. it drives her crazy. she's doubted intellectually, physically, mentally, the whole nine yards. there's nothing she hates more than people who assume because she's a pretty face that she doesn't have anything else going for her.
  
• she doesn't deal with attitude well, and it can usually drive jethrow to sever ties with people because they cause too much drama with their attitudes. but don't get her wrong, she'll gladly tell you what she thinks with a bit of attitude ( so what, she's a hypcrite! ) and then laugh in your face, but when others do it, it tends to grate on her nerves. she doesn't like the constant machismo a lot of men try to play off, as well, and it's possibly the biggest turn off.
  
• you can tell jethrow anything to her face and she'll swallow it. not easily, but she will. but the second you lie to her, you enrage a monster that usually can't be calmed. jethrow doesn't forgive and forget, no, she gets even for you lying to her face.
  

Fears;;

• to only be in her twenties and in such dangerous territory leaves her to fear dying so young. it's possibly one of the driving factors in her life.
  
• she may be overly independent and keep to herself sometimes, but there's that voice in the back of her head that tells her it's going to bite her in the ass one day. she prays for a prince charming, maybe even a lone wolf who can sweep her off her feet and into the sunset.
  

Goals;;

• to run with the wolves would possibly be her biggest dream. to leave her old life behind and start anew. she's sure itll happen eventually, but so far, no takers.
  
• it's always been her dream, ever since she was little, to find true love. a little cheesey, don't you think? that's why she's often scared to admit it.
  

Anything else;;

• jethrow can fire any gun you put in her hands. she's an ex-hunter and she's very skilled with any sort of weaponry. she's good with bows, guns, traps, snares, et cetera. unfrotunately, when she actually caught her first werewolf, she wimped out of killing it and set her free.
  
• she's an artist - and painting tends to be her best trade. she can be found with a sketchbook some places, but because people so often ask her to show them what she's drawing, she's stopped going out in public with it.
  

You should know that you're just a temporary fix
This isn't a routine with you it don't mean that much to me

appearance;; jethrow is what she considers average. her red hair is usually straight or curled, sometimes pulled up if she's feeling adventurous. her eyes, a peculiar color that shines a brilliant gold in the light, are usually full of life and curiosity, always seeing things aesthetically and truthfully. her smile is usually bright and perfectly white, but it's all that meticulous bleaching she's been doing to be what society thinks is beautiful. her body is usually adorned in the latest fashion, generally mini skirts or dresses and sometimes he occasional blue jeans with a cute top. on her feet are usually heels or something just as fashionable. when she's out and about, she's usually got tennis shoes on or something she can move easily in.

personality;; jethrow is a wild spirit who's never really been able to be tamed. she's always been separate from people yet so close at the same time. she's sociable but doesn't reveal a good deal of herself and never wears her emotions on her sleeve. everything's hidden behind a veil and only the lucky ones can move the veil. when she's with society, she seems overly nice. she smiles at everyone and enjoys their company, sometimes while secretly wishing she was out in the forest admiring the wildlife.

by herself, she can be equally as charming. she finds herself funny and admirable, but she usually sticks to herself and doesn't willingly go out to meet new people. her family's laid out a reputation that she's still associated with and that angers her, so the avoid the anger that a good deal of people push onto her, she goes out and practices her marksmanship by herself and stares at the moon and listens to the wolves howl.

( a good deal of her personality can be summed up from all information above. )

family;;
michael jethrow ( father ) | alive; a very brutal man who has had zero toleration for lycanthropy and anything that evolves from it. he stays in the house most days and is very loving to family and comrades. he'd a cripple, though, cursed to be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life after a hunting trip went wrong.
margaret 'maggie' jethrow ( mother ) | alive; usually stuck at home with michael and taking care of him to the day he dies, maggie has always been a very devoted wife and mother. elizabeth gets a good deal of her looks from her, and they're very alike in personality as well. when they were younger, maggie and michael would hunt together, and when elizabeth was a child, she'd tag along.
benjamin jethrow ( older brother ) | missing; elizabeth's overprotective older brother, the one who she looked up to in her life. he was an excellent hunter, but ever since a hunting trip gone wrong ( previous to michael's incident, but related. see history below ) he's only shown himself to the family once before disappearing into the night.

history;;

childhood | elizabeth marie jethrow is born to michael and margaret jethrow. michael and maggie are out too often to take care of the baby. benny, ten years old at the time, willingly looks after elizabeth. he protects her with his life. the two are close and elizabeth often mimics benny in what he does. she grows up strong and fast. when she's six, she first learns how to fire a gun. every year she moves to a bigger caliber. but she's still young, so she stays at home. when the family goes out on a hunt, she stays at home and cooks for herself, and when she's bored, she learns to fire crossbows and compound bows - whatever they have in the house. she's a well-rounded hunter by the time she's twelve.

adolescence | being a hunter and going to school is difficult. but benny always told elizabeth to stay in school, so she does. she often follows some of the kids around school and watches them, looking for what her father says makes a werewolf. keen hearing, keen seeing, noticing things that others wouldn't. her own senses are heightened. she's the reason a lot of children's families die. but she doesn't feel bad because she's been raised to believe that killing werewolves is a good thing.

she doesn't make a lot of friends in school, but that's okay. she's got her brother and her family and she's out too much to really have time to socialize, anyway. she barely got home at night to finish her homework and keep up with her good grades. she's called out of class often for days at a time to go on hunting trips. she's the sniper of the family - always hidden away with a fifty caliber to watch over the family. she's usually the one who saves lives, and it makes her feel a lot better than her grades at school do. but she still keeps up the good grades and the good hunting. somehow.

when she's eighteen they go out for a special hunt. they're looking to kill a pack's alpha and scatter the whole place so the wolves are weaker by themselves. they're easier to pick off that way. elizabeth knows. everyone does. when they go into the pack grounds benny goes first because he's the strongest and michael is getting a little too old for hunting. they hear howling everywhere and when benny gives the 'all clear' sign, the sound is choked and filled with gunshots and violence. they have to leave - the situation has been compromised. elizabeth doesn't know what's going on but she follows her parents with her rifle in hand, watching their backs like she always does. except benny's not with them.

it's been a month and they haven't tried again. they've been waiting for benny to come back. but when he doesn't come back in a month, they assume he's dead, and they have to try again for benny's sake. they're more careful this time, but not careful enough. one manages to catch michael by surprise - but when jethrow helps, she watches through her rifle's scope as the wolf doesn't use his teeth. it's strange, but jethrow makes the shot and only hits the wolf in the leg. this one is hers. this is for benny. she has to kill it with her own hands. she runs down and when she gets there, michael and maggie have made a run for it while the wolf lies on its side, biting at its leg in an attempt to pull the bullet out, it seems. elizabeth raises her knife to the wolf's throat, but an almost human sound comes out before it shifts back to her long lost brother. she can't do it, but he begs her to. he doesn't want this, he never has, but she can't do it. she runs and runs and doesn't come back to finish her job.

after a year she's finally reconciled with herself. she goes back to where she was the night she found benny and she watches them. watches how human they are, and how they go about life the same way she has. they're not demons, they're just cursed to live a different life style that doesn't even harm anyone. she watches them try to control each other, to stay covert just so they can stay alive. it's painful to watch, but she does.

and then she skips town and leaves her parents behind to the most wolf-populated place she can think of - converse. she comes here and she waits because she wants to be like them. there's nothing wrong with them and she wants to prove it - to herself and to everyone else
