History: Gzifa was born with a huge litter of many sisters and brothers. Their high numbers was only half of the reason she lacked a closeness with him. Much of her emotional distance from her family was due to her bad habbit of 'exploring'. Try as she might to remember her way, she always ended up getting lost.
Her mother, oldest sister and brother Kisho were easily the closet family members she had, though she sought the approval of her entire family. In her days as an adolescent, she met another 'explorer' named Khima, who she hit it off with right away. The two decided to adventuring the lands together.
Gzifa was torn apart when her mother refused her the right to do so. One of her sisters had taken off not long before, and her mother didn't trust her to come back or take care of herself. Though it hurt Gzifa deeply to do so, she left her pack and her family to travel with Khima.
The two moved across the lands, seeing many sights, for a long while. One day, the duo met Khima's brother, Mati. Mati fell for Gzifa as quickly as she and Khima had become friends, although Gzifa herself was too dense to realize this, and viewed them both more as brothers, anyway.
She did, however, fall in love. This wild dog didn't stay around after finding out there were puppies on the way. Ashamed, Gzifa fled from her two friends as she had her family before, and now bounces from place to place with her five offspring.
Personality: If one wants to get something through Gzifa's thick skull, they should say it bluntly, or chances are she'll take it wrong. She doesn't grasp the concept of 'it's just a saying', and takes everything in a literal sense, which can be frustrating. Despite her many annoyances (others including her poor memory and knack for getting lost, given she actually has somewhere to be), Gzifa often brings out the best in others with her childish ways and many find themselves liking her even if they don't want to.
The recent birth of her five puppies has done little to improve her maturity mentally. She obviously sees her offspring more as new traveling partners than her children, and treats them like it. They are given the freedom that adults would, and Gzifa often leaves them alone for long periods of time to go explore by herself, thinking nothing of it and not seeing any error in this method that would be obvious to anyone else.
Her affinity for solo adventure makes her out to be independant, but she is actually quite the opposite, desperately needing at least one companion she has access to at all times.
Being a single pup in a litter of so many herself, Gzifa has what can almost being described as a paranoia about being clumped into a group or having things assumed about her based on the actions of others. Often this fear leads her to do things to stand out that aren't really nesscary, which leads to more trouble.
