Appearance:
BUILD. Malaika is, in fact, a tiny keiyou with an extremely light frame and slender build. Her father genes are unmistakeably clear in her build; they have the same thin frame, long legs for her size, and identical slender head. Her body appears too delicate for her size, especially her legs which look like they are close to snapping. Despite taking these genes from her father, her shape does not appear very masculine, however her build does not look very feminine either. Her head is shaped quite sharply, not entirely unlike to a fox's head, with a relatively short muzzle and a couple of ears flopping down her face, giving her an odd yet familiar appearance.
Malaika's face often wears a very open expression, with her large, wide eyes and lips that curl up at the both corners slightly, forming a faint permanent smile. Her wings aren't massive and graceful as her sister, Kyita; Malaika prefers to keep her average-sized wings close to her sides than spreading them open. Compared to her body, they look oversized and heavy, giving her a slightly dishevelled look. The wings are built for agility and gliding, not for strength and stamina. The feathers of the wings are quite long at the edges, especially at the tips, giving both of her wings a rather pointed look.
COAT/COLOURS. Covering her dainty body is a thin and sleek coat with short but coarse fur. This is both advantageous and disadvantageous to this young wolf; although her short fur would prevent Malaika from overheating in the hotter days, her having short fur does not exactly help her in the colder days. The only areas where the fur seems to grow much longer than the rest of her body are around her a typical keiyou's lion-like tail and along her back.
Her coat is mainly orange, a little duller than her father's, but orange nevertheless. This colour spreads all over her coat in the exact same tone, ending just before the paws, at the tail-tip and spinal area. At these areas, the orange colour has darkened into dark brown, almost black, creating a striking contrast between the two colours. The orange colour has paled into almost pure white once it reaches her underbelly, and the white belly streak ends under the tail. On her upper left hind leg, there is a couple of white lines which cross each other twice, creating a shape that is not entirely unlike to a heart.
OTHER. Due to her light build, Malaika appears to move in a feather-light and bouncy way. However, because of her high attentiveness to her surroundings, her pace tend to be slower than most. She speaks in a quiet tone which often goes unnoticed, unless she really has something to say. That's when she would speak in a much sharper tone.

Personality:
QUIET. Malaika does not often have something to say, especially not in front of a large crowd. But if she does speak, it would be in a tiny tone, as she does not like attracting attention. The only wolf she can speak openly with is her sister, Kyita.
CURIOUS. This young keiyou likes learning and discovering new things. Because of her eagerness to learn, she develops this inquisitiveness, but unlike most other puppies, she has a great control over her curiosity. Although she would love to find out new things and listen to what others have to say, she knows when to stop or back off.
CAREFUL. Malaika tries not to get in trouble, adventures, or any awkward situations. It is easy as she is naturally shy and quiet. But if she does get a chance, she would brush it off, especially if it's risky. She is the wolf who likes to watch from the sidelines than to barge into a new situation head first.
THOUGHTFUL. Malaika is a careful and affectionate girl, and she has inherited most of her mother's kind heart. She can not rest until she knows that someone, who previously has got a problem, is fine. Although she likes to let others know that she cares, she does not express this trait openly. She is the type of wolf that only approaches you when she thinks you needs someone.
AFFECTIONATE. Since she is not as brash as some puppies, she tends to be a little more affectionate. Malaika is the type of wolf that would put others before herself, and she thinks that everyone deserves some compassion. Sometimes she wonders if it's easier for her as she can not judge a wolf by his appearance, but this thought does not put her off from being caring.
SENSITIVE. She is careful with what she does and says whenever she thinks it will affect others badly. Malaika's words are usually chosen tactfully and spoken in a gentle quiet voice. Her empathy allows her to feel whatever you are feeling, but sometimes she can not close herself off and gets too sad, because you are sad. This is Malaika's greatest strength and main weakness; she cares about others too much.
TIMID. Quiet and careful, Malaika tends to come off as a timid little wolf most of the time. Being too silent almost all the time, she almost has no chance to encourage her confidence, therefore she feels hesitant whenever faced with new wolf or obstacle.
IMPATIENT. Malaika likes to be on move, or at least to know what she wants to do, the worst thing for her is to wait. She is not the most patient wolf and it certainly shows. Often she would complain or be sulky for a long while until she's slightly satisfied. Though withdrawn at most of the time, she would immediately make herself known whenever she's feeling irritated with waiting.
PERFECTIONIST. Everything she does has to be perfect, or she will consider it as a failure. This is just an irrational habit of hers, which sometimes affects others, especially when it involves them. But otherwise, it is just another flaw of Malaika's.
LACKS INITIATIVE. Malaika does not have any burning desire to lead; she is more than happy to be a follower instead of being a leader, as seen with her and her sister, Kyita. It is obvious that she does not have the gumption to be in charge, and even she knows this. Not just that, Malaika knows deep down that if she is given the chance to lead she would panic and fall apart under pressure. So it is preferable for both her and other wolves if she stays out of the limelight.
