Eldest Son of Ferventi
Although not a god himself, and not his father's heir either, many depictions of Ferventi as Ferventi the Father feature Odii as an infant or child being carried by him or riding on his back, and are commonly seen on or around Father's Day.
Physical Description
Odii appears as a fit, strong man with long, ashy blond hair. He often wears paint similar to that of his father in red and black around his eyes, and will wear furs and hides over his body as clothing, with a
Needlecoat Mantle as a coak. As one of Ferventi's sons, he can use his boon to transform into a large, white wolf, most often for travel.
His hair is kept slightly past his shoulders and often loose, only tying it up when about to participate in an active battle. Odii often has a bit of patchy scruff that he refuses to shave until it becomes long and unsightly. Odii's eyes when at night or in the dark are often reflective. Under his left eye is a large gnarled scar around his eye socket he got in his teens during a battle from, as he puts it, 'catching an arrow with his face'.
He has a scar under his left eye that he has had since he was young.
Odii can call upon Ferventi's boon at any time, transforming himself in the image of his father's divine form.
Odii is skilled in strategy and the mechanics of war, with a deep understanding of the Land of Gods under his arsenal. Although he prefers to fight relying on his own strength and using Ferventi's boon, he will often use a spear, lance, or bow and arrow if pressured or riding a wolf.
Mental characteristics
"What's a gender" / Doesn't care
Odii is a leader of the
Pack of Ferventi over all, overseeing their operations and often in charge when it comes to battles and relocating. He acts as a general and advisor to his father.
Odii is considered one of the most respected of Ferventi's children when it comes to childrearing, being a constant presence in protecting, raising, and educating his younger siblings and own children. He is the most famous son of Ferventi to date, and the oldest that is still living today. He is highly respected even among the gods and one of the few people who is not a god's heir allowed to attend meetings of the gods, occasionally doing so in Ferventi's place or as a representative of the
Pack of Ferventi alongside his half brother,
Amos Vulapin.
He is incredibly skilled in battle strategy and tactics, spending much of his time acting as one of Ferventi's generals. He's assisted in numerous skirmishes and fights between gods, and not at all afraid to take on the divine head on, despite being mortal himself.
Odii deeply despises those who harm women and children, and would never do so himself.
He also refuses to take on a partner until he finds a love as deep as his father had for Cryce, but will rather instead have many short flings and one time sexual encounters.
Personality Characteristics
Odii has an incredibly skewed view of love and relationships, idolizing perfection and believing that any relationship with troubles is doomed. He worships his ideals of a perfect almost fairy tale like love that never fades, and such, cannot come to terms with loving another takes work to do. His relationships often are short, only lasting a few months to a few years at the most before he breaks up with his partner.
As proud of his heritage as he is, Odii dislikes Father's Day and the common depiction of him as a child alongside his father. He resents almost any image of himself as a child as a result.
Odii is incredibly patient with children and has raised more of his younger siblings than perhaps anyone else in the pack aside from his mother,
Chezira. His knowledge of childcare and childrearing is vast, as is his patience for them.
Odii has an incredibly idealized view of love and romance, having grown up on the legends and myths of his father and his most famous mate, Cryce. He refuses to take on a long term romantic or even sexual partner until he finds someone he believes is to him as Cryce was to Ferventi, which has over the years made him distant in showing or receiving affection, unable to accept that a relationship doesn't take pure love alone but work and effort, and most importantly, time to develop. He still, even well into his adulthood, is a strong believer in instant, easy, 'true' love.
Those who have attempted to romance him often remark he can be quite cold and quick to break a relationship off before it even truly blooms. Odii has at times become quite frustrated when a relationship doesn't appear to be going as he expected either, even if it is going well, and has no patience for working through disagreements with his potential partner(s), and instead is quick to break up with them. He also does not give second chances easily when it comes to romance and affection, and at the rare moments he does, can become even more frustrated than he was initially.
His lifestyle with the pack often leads to getting into situations where he's often quite filthy, usually with the remnants of battle or scavenging for resources and food. His clothing is generally quite worn and well used, covered in repairs, scuffs, and marks.
Social
Odii is incredibly proud of his heritage, and puts great reverence on his father and at times will seek to impress him, hoping to be named Ferventi's heir. He cares deeply for all members of his family, and often has raised his younger siblings as part of his duty to his family, in the mindset that it is proper for him to do so.
Although raised apart from
Amos Vulapin, the pair of half brothers are best friends and inseparable.
Odii is brash and loud, oozing confidence and pride.
History
Amos and Odii did not grow up together, instead meeting in their pre teens when Amos left the care of his mother, Hikaru, to live among the Pack of Ferventi. The pair became fast friends upon realizing they were half brothers, and have been inseparable since.
History
Odii is the eldest still living son of Chezira, and among her youngest children.

Towards Ferventi, God of Wolves

Younger Brother (Important)
Towards Wolfmother Akinra
History
Akinra is one of Odii's older sisters, and she in part, raised him alongside her parents. They have always maintained a close relationship throughout their lives, with Odii being a constant presence in the lives of her children and assisting in raising and protecting them as if they were his own.
Nicknames & Petnames
Odii is often heard referring to her as 'Aki', a cutesy nickname from their childhood.
History
Odii and Ryoten have met on occasion, similar in age compared to Ferventi's other sons, but are not close. They do regard one another as family, but rarely spend time together outside of yearly family gatherings or festivals in honor of their father.
Since Ryoten has brought his children into the fold of the pack, however, Odii has grown to spend more time with his half brother and often dotes on his new nephew and niece, Orion and Myrena.
Commonalities & Shared Interests
Odii was one of Ryoten's many benefactors in adopting Orion.
History
Though they have only met a few times, it has been enough for Orion to idolize his uncle, of whom he has grown up hearing stories about. Whenever the pack meets, they are excited to see one another and share stories. Odii is the one who first said that Orion would make a fantastic navigator from his knowledge of the stars, heavily influencing him in his later years.
History
Aurora and Odii have met on occasion, but are not known to maintain close contact. This however, has changed following the death of their sister, Akinra, as Odii and Aurora are deep in mourning and have become much closer.
