 -Personality-
In a nutshell Delphinus is a fair mix of his parents, on the surface the lad seems to be alot more like his father; Stoic, soft spoken and keeps words to a minumum but like his mother he is unapologetic and hard headed, but extremely passionate. Especially with his main interest; Water of any type or body. There's very little to keep the cub from diving in head first, it's been joked around he may even be part fish but only his family is allowed to do that, otherwise he'll get fussy.

Like his father, he has a hard time expressing himself but comes off alot more brash than Mihail, and with his bluntness, he can be quite rude at times. It doesn't help that he's stubborn.Deep down though, he is a sweetheart and has his own way a going about showing that he cares. You'll just need to be paitent with him.


Stoic and Soft Spoken
Even at a glance you know which parent he inherited this trait from. Except Delphinus takes it up a notch from his father's pokerface and usually looks disgusted more often than not. It's rare to see the little cub smile but when he does it with his family, who he loves dearly. Especially his mama. Besides swimming, other main interest, hanging out with his family is something Del geiunely enjoys.


Unapologetic
Being stubborn, when Delphinus makes up his mind about something, there's little to change that. And he's completely abrasive about it and only digs his heels deeper if you try arguing with him.

Blunt
Plainly put, when Delphinus actually opens his mouth to speak it's straight from his mind with no filter, and 9 in 10 times rude. So it's hard for him to make friends, and keep friends at that. 

Fussy
If he's in distress you probably know it. Usually from his wrinkled brow and death glare, not that it does much intimadating as he's just a wee little cub with big baby eyes. But he's not above groaning, and passive aggressive sighs when he's uncomfortable. If you're lucky a very short snappy remark.

Passionate
Although appearing lazy at a glance, it's only when it's of something of his interest he'll muster the motivation to make an effort towards it, and when he puts the work into something, Delphinus puts the work into something. The issue is he has a very fined number of interests...One could even say; a one track mind.

History

The entire story prior to Delphinus' birth is an interesting one, but we'd be here a while if the story of Rowan and Mihail's love is retold in full, so to keep it brief... 

Delphinus was born alongside his littermate and fraternal twin, Misthios after a long, strenuous labor that lasted for hours on end for Rowan. But in the end, their family grew by two and he was named by his mother after her mate's appreciation of water. Little did she realize how fitting this name really was. Delphinus grew up a quiet child, withdrawn and with an unusual attachment to water. 

Although he loved both his parents, he was very much a mama's boy in the end. He adored his mother Rowan. Her strength, her mind, her cuddles. Which made it especially hard when he lost her. At incredibly tender age and horrific way at that...The last time he saw his mother was drenched in her own blood. There was no stopping her bleeding-and she died with her sons in her arms. That memory haunted him the longest.

From that night on Delphinus developed a strong hemophobia. And for a while he couldn't even swim in warm water without being reminded of the blood of his mother seeping into his pelt. Yet another blow was dealt to the young jaguar mix when his crush; Tyriel, moved far away from Massilia. Leaving behind a lonely Delphinus, it didn't help his older siblings Inky and Vinci moved out too. 

Ontop of that, Del feels a disconnect to the hunt-Warden program, despite his grand heritage. Something he can't get away from cats reminding him of...
