Rank: n/a
Physical:
Height: 32"
Weight: 70lbs
Appearance:
His only visible fur is white and is around his face and paws. The rest of his body is covered in long prairie grasses that range from yellow and brown to light and dark shades of greens. This is unusual for a kukkien, whose plants usually grow only on the mane, but there is a reason for this... He is quite a large wolf, with large ears to match. His eyes are a pale, almost sickly, pink. His nose is also pink. He has long white teeth and long sharp claws, making him look a bit more menacing than he actually is. He keeps his head and tail low to the ground a he walks and lays completely flat as he sleeps. The blades of grass on his back are quite luminescent and glow a rich emerald when in direct sunlight. The plants are also very thin and move freely in the wind (with, of course, the occasional tangle.)

-Naive (He trusts peers too easily and is always giving others the benefit of the doubt.)
-Shy (He really wants to be outgoing, but his lack of social experience holds him back.)
Personality:
He is very intelligent yet quite naive, with little common sense. He is a very trusting wolf. He is a little skittish to approach newcomers- that's the price of being shy. However, he is very determined to be the best, to succeed, and to do the right thing. He has a strong conscious and cannot stand for unjust behavior when he sees it. Because of his shyness, he's never been much of a leader, but he'd like to be. He spends next to all of time alone, but he doesn't mind it too much. He is very self-sufficient and responsible. He takes pride in almost everything he does and always gives his best effort. He is also very compassionate and empathetic. He often feels pity for those who are weak or elderly. He also spends a lot of his free time observing his surroundings and the few-and-far-between passersby, so he is very intuitive to his surroundings and to fellow wolves' emotions and personalities.
History:
From birth he was very different from the average pup. His parents hadn't expected a pale, white bundle when they got him. They'd expected a normal little Kukkien- like any other parents. But Kesume was born with Albinism. Out here in the wild that wasn't just undesirable; it was dangerous. How could he hunt like a true Kukkien with his blindingly reflective coat? They thought up a solution: gather grass seeds and plant them all over his pale body. They covered his fur in it, from a young age, and it grew. His parents tried to keep it tidy, but it grew so long that it was useless to keep trying sometimes. It fixed the problem, but made it a little hard for him to get around. He has since learned to move around with it, and has become quite strong from carrying around all the layers of waxy grass. He's been traveling mostly on his own, but wants to find other wolves like him. He's willing to befriend pretty much any wolf that is willing to spend some time with him instead of running off in fear. More than anything he wants be accepted, and since his parents left has been scouting for other outcast wolves.
