Stone, as he is named, has a bit of an extended personality. Well in truth he has four, but three of them are just in his head. They’re voices, they’re his friends, they’re his pack, and his family. Stone suffers from schizophrenia, as well as the occasional hallucination and even split personality disorder sometimes when one of his voices is being particularly opinionated. He’s never been one to view himself as burdened, cursed, or inferior. He really doesn’t even realize that he is insane. His hallucinations are always of the embodiments of his voices, Granite, Shale, and Talc. Stone does sometimes hate the wolves inside his head, and he’ll even result to banging his own head against a rock to try to get rid of them in the worst cases. Of course at other times he doesn’t know what he would do if he was alone in his head, it would be so empty and quiet. It’s never once occurred to him that the wolves he hears aren’t real, that he’s created them in his own brain for some reason; after all, Stone doesn’t know he’s insane. Not to say that he doesn’t get told he’s insane, but he doesn’t believe it. His only constant companions in his life have been Granite, Shale, and Talc and he could never dismiss them as imaginings. They are so much more.

Stone is a bit of a jumpy wolf. He acts odd, with strange habits that make it easy enough to tell he’s not quite right from a ways off. He will talk to himself quite often, literally, not just to the voices in his head, of course he talks out loud to them as well, and at times they speak out loud through him. Stone also for some reason loves to eat sand and dry dirt, whenever he happens upon a sandy river bank or a dry deserty stretch of land he’ll stop for a bite to eat. Strangest of all, Stone doesn’t even know there’s anything wrong with that. He is actually quite obsessed with all sorts of dry, crunchy things, like old sun-bleached bones that haven’t had a touch of flesh on them for years and crisp easily between his teeth. He’ll also enjoy a bit of wood if the twigs act the same way. That’s not to say he doesn’t eat real things as well, but he prefers to scavenge off of the remains of other predators.

Aside from his eating habits Stone is very awkward in social situations. He doesn’t have a stutter, but sometimes he will stutter anyways, not for fun, but more because he thinks it is what others expect from him. He also trembles, and is prone to acting submissive even to low-ranking wolves. It’s not because he thinks he has to, he’s not afraid of any wolf, he just thinks it’s easier to act that way than to try to give his opinions. Stone likes to hang around the edges whenever he’s around other wolves. Sometimes he’ll ask to join a pack and if they say he can he’ll just leave the next morning, looking for something more interesting. And if a pack doesn’t let him join then he’ll trail around the outskirts of their territory until they force him to leave. Stone is rebellious in his own ways, even if he acts submissive up close.

Granite represents Stone’s harsher side. No part of Stone is evil, he’s really a quite good natured wolf, but under Granite’s influence he can be a bit more forceful. Granite is more daring than Stone could ever be and also more willing to inflict pain on anything, even just prey animals. Granite isn’t as considerate to others as Stone and is more into self preservation. Stone gets mad at him more than the other two voices he hears. He’s the one that conflicts the most with Stone’s personality.

Shale is an exaggeration of Stone’s submissive and cowardly nature. Shale crumbles under pressure and can’t stand to be the cause of anything. He usually convinces Stone out of risks and out of doing anything dangerous. Shale is probably the most similar to Stone, but unlike Stone Shale has only the preservation of himself and Stone at heart. After all, something dangerous could kill Stone, or injure him.

Talc is the kindest part of Stone. He is selfless, although fairly submissive. He tries to help out others and is the one that Stone most often changes into. Whenever there’s something injured, even if it’s not a wolf, Talc will immediately try to help it, even when it’s obvious that it doesn’t want help.

Whenever Stone changes personality it’s always into one of the voices in his head. When that happens he becomes a voice in their head with the other two.

Nothing about Stone makes him look very spectacular. He does have kind of mangy-looking fur and his ribs kind of stick out but that’s not so odd to see in a lone wolf. He has rather classic colorings for a gray wolf, being mostly tan with shades and tints of colors from tan to dark brown to black. Like with most gray wolves Stone has lighter fur lower down on his body, his back blanketed in darker gray hues. His generally tone of fur would be tan, with very little true black or brown in it. Stone’s eyes are dark brown.

Stone is very thin and not particularly strong. His teeth are in a rather poor condition, since he sometimes bites into rocks with his odd habits, or hard bones. He has long legs but he isn’t that fast, as he doesn’t have muscles worth much from his self abuse and lack of a drive to hunt. His pelt is full of scars, especially when he freaks out other, meaner, wolves with his odd mannerisms it’s not uncommon for him to be attacked and driven off. And of course there’s the fact that he is prone to clawing at his face and banging his head on rocks when Shale, Basalt, and Granite drive him crazier than he already is. Stone will even at times stumble when he’s walking such is the extent of his malnourishment.

Stone can’t be found doing anything usually. Many wolves can generally be found happy, or looking cross, or looking sad, but not Stone. His actions vary widely from day to day, and even hour to hour. He does like to smile, and so tries to a lot, but usually other things get in his way. Sometimes he’ll walk around looking pissed off for long periods of time if one of his voices has angered him. Other times he’ll be walking around with his head down, eyes half closed, depression and defeat radiating off of him in waves. His body language is never constant, especially on the rare occasions where he changes personalities with one of the voices.
