Temperament: Ookami is known primarily as a friendly, outgoing, sugar loving idiot; he sometimes scares people away by being too friendly. He’ll be the first to admit that he isn’t the brightest guy, except for that time with the glitter, but no one talks about that these days. He’s really more comfortable stepping back into a supporting role than taking responsibility for a job, but that doesn’t mean he can’t take charge or that he won’t step in when he knows something’s wrong.
He’s quick to decided whether or not he likes something or someone and becomes easily attached. Ookami has his own way of doing things using roundabout off the wall methods to complete the simplest tasks often working on several things at once. He gets bored easily so he's always looking to pick up new hobbies. He talks himself in circles somehow ending up completely off topic before finding it again. He's a people person often going out of his way to help others and he can usually pick up on someone's feelings and find out what's really bothering them; though he doesn't always know the best way to go about helping them.
Ookami seems to have both extremely high and extremely low self-esteem, he doesn't have a problem talking to people but he has a habit of being overly critical of his own skills. Often times he'll get complemented on his skill at a certain task that he feels he hasn't done an adequate job at. He’s well aware that he has room for improvement and continues to practice.
He can be serious when he wants to but he tends to use the philosophy that “life’s to short not to have fun with it ”
Although Ookami has mellowed out some in his old age, well old for someone with the profession of risking one's life, he still enjoys the pixy stix of friendship and comadary; and he's still somewhat paranoid about the conspiracy of laughing gas following him around.
Background: Ookami grew up in the hidden village of the Land of Ice where three clans hold power and a somewhat unique system of leadership is in place. Each of the three clans selects it's best ninja to lead them similar to the way a Kage is appointed in other villages. Together the three clan heads form a council and vote on matters concerning the village as a whole.
Marriages are encouraged between members of different clans every few generations to keep the ties between them strong, though the children will only learn their skills from one parent to keep the clans separated as clans. Ookami was the product of such a marriage: The Ice clan specializing in taijutsu and other close-range combat, and the Frost Clan excelling in assassination skills. Kami took after his mother in technique while his sister learned assassination techniques from their father; technically belonging to different clans despite being blood siblings, a fact that is sometimes difficult to comprehend to those outside of their home village. In fact, it's mostly unknown as Ookami generally forgets that saying: "We're brother and sister, our parents were from different clans," has a different meaning to those with different customs who might assume that one parent married into the other's clan or that perhaps the children are each members of both clans. Other than that his family history isn't that unusual...unless you count a happy healthy family as strange.
Ookami left his village a few months after graduating the academy to see the world going back only recently to take his home chunin exams...though looking back...maybe he should have reached the journeyman ninja level before going on a journey? Whatever way he did it Ookami became a traveling ninja visiting various villages in the past three years before settling down for a short-turned-ongoing stay here in the village hidden in the Hell Fire.
