Faust's being radiates with assurance, but it is not without an edge of mystery. He is a quiet wolf, preferring to observe situations thoroughly before choosing his words with great care. As a natural diplomat, he was blessed with a silver-tongue. Using his intuition, he is able to appeal to his peers successfully, knowing well how to approach every situation. Faust projects what he feels Vale deserves in a leader, concealing his inner-most tribulations and concerns.

Such techniques are executed in politics, but in his personal life Faust is very much an introvert, finding sanctuary in the quiet moments. Often times he can feel distant, though he is not antisocial. He enjoys spending time with like-minded individuals, giving and taking and sharing knowledge. Those who do not know him well may mistake his quiet, self-reliance for arrogance, but he is merely a serious and contemplative character. His earnest and somber nature make him difficult to get to know, but are perhaps two of his biggest strengths when it comes to shaping his leadership. Faust is a charismatic wolf, and enjoys banter among his pack. He can be quite endearing and entertaining when he is caught in the right mood. He is especially patient and playful with pups.

Though he was once known for possessing a fiery irritability, Faust has learned how to harness this power, using it only in benefit of the pack. He is naturally even-tempered and will rarely give into his sentiments. He remains rational, leading with reason and tact over emotion. The harsh nature of Pack Vale means that Faust must wield his own strength to keep order. He will not hesitate to resort to violence when he feels fit. He leads Vale in very much the same way, viewing physical dominance as a fact of wolf nature. Toward his foes, Faust is an incredibly defensive and powerful adversary, though he is no longer as strong as he was in his youth. His hip pain keeps him grounded, but he works to hide this weakness from the pack.

Faust is defined by his tendency to move strategically through life. He does not consider failure to be an option, and believes that there is always a way to achieve one's goals. He does not rely solely on others to get what he wants, he knows his own strengths and uses them to succeed. This notion has served him well as an Alpha, as his determination echoes the fighter's spirit that thrives within all Valerians. Such ambition can be exhausting and intimidating, as Faust will constantly push the pack toward a greater unknown. In his eyes, there is never an end. He scorns those with limited drive who squander their time and energy.
In his morals he is like a boulder; completely unmovable. He holds himself to a staunch moral code and expects others to do the same. His honestly is not without fault, however. His sharp tongue and equally harsh words has landed him in trouble on more than one occasion during his lifetime. He speaks and acts at times without any filter, saying what needs to be said without any thought of the sensitive nature of those around him. He sees no point in lying to protect the feelings o this peers, and will often say what he feels is right without thinking what effect his words will have.
But this does not mean that he lacks empathy. He can be overprotective to a fault, however, often sheltering his mate and pups. He will not tolerate anyone treating his kin unfairly. Faust is genuinely plagued by others’ suffering, though the usurpation of his throne has turned him into more of a skeptic, focused on providing for his own. He no longer concerns himself with affairs outside of Vale, believing the pack. Instead, he is devoted entirely to the benefit of the Valerian wolves. In this way, Faust strives to maintain the livelihood of the pack.
[Pre-Group History]

Faust was born and raised in Havir, birthed by the Priest, his mother, and the Alpha, his father. The union between his parents was viewed as blessed, and Faust being the only survivor of his litter was considered a gift from the Gods. Growing up, Faust bore the weight of this, knowing he was chosen by the Gods to provide for the pack. The pressure from his parents led him to a youth of accelerated learning and worship. He was always thankful of the Gods for his superior infancy. He was devoted to his parents and they to him, until his father passed away of old age when Faust was quite young. His older half-brother, Saurugol, took his place as the next alpha. Hera, believing that Faust should have been the alpha if he were only born sooner, grew hard on the juvenile, pressing him to fulfill his divine duties and prove his worth to Havir.

Loosing his father and disappointing his mother plunged Faust into a dark period of his life during his most crucial coming-of-age years. He acted out aggressively and avoided his pack-mates, living in seclusion. He grew up learning to hunt and defend for himself without the reliance of the pack. His belief in the Gods faltered. It took him almost a year of lamenting for Faust's life to return to what was the new normalcy. He vowed to keep those important to him close, but from that point on refrained from forming tight bonds in fear they would eventually be broken, as his was with his father. His relationship with his mother grew stronger as they supported one another, but still strained under Hera's expactations for how Faust lived his life. Faust became very protective over her and viewed others who entered their life with a critical eye. He lamented those who resented her for her actions toward him, believing only he needed to tolerate it. Though she placed great pressure on him he knew in the end only he alone had control over his future. His bonds with Saurugol and Silvanus too, fortified over the years, as he turned to them for guidance. Faust began training for a guardian position in the pack, to protect Havir from outside dangers.

Now as time has passed, Faust has begun to question the existence of the Gods. He cannot tell any of his packmates his beliefs, not even the wolf with whom he is closest, his mother, for even she may cast him out of Havir. The pack’s decree is absolute, and Faust ponders if he has a place among these wolves anymore.
