TODD.
1 year - male - canine - red fox - loner - N/A
Personality:
Todd is just slightly arrogant. Normally he's just a little more prideful than most, and completely immodest, but in a certain frame of mind, he'll look down on everyone, ignoring them if he's ordered around - which he would do anyway. It doesn't help that he is a rather handsome little fox, too, and he does have some areas in which he could be described as an expert. If he's done you a favour, particularly if it's something you could never do yourself, he'll never let you forget it.
The young fox is rather selfish, despite - or maybe because of - his upbringing. He looks out for himself before seeking to help anyone else. That's not to say that he won't share food or shelter if he has more than enough for himself, but if there's only enough for him, it's all his. He won't really rescue someone from an awkward situation, or even a life-threatening one, unless there's something in it for him, and if he's not at risk. The very rare exception to this is if he's come to care about someone so much he'll put their welfare before his own, but it would take a pretty special creature to make him do that.
Having said this, Todd doesn't really care what others think of him. If they think he's selfish, fine. If they think he's arrogant, well, that's fine too. It takes a lot of persistence make Todd genuinely angry or ashamed - you have to insult something like his skills as a thief or a spy to get any reaction of that kind. He's pretty insensitive, and of course, that doesn't help him to be kinder toward others. Once again, he'll be kind if it suits him, if he's feeling kind, and if he wants something from someone - but usually he's blunt and sarcastic, shrugging and indicating that whatever is wrong, it's not his problem.
The young fox's sarcasm and often unpleasant sense of humour doesn't make him all that popular, either. His sarcasm is sometimes so subtle those who don't know him well or at all may think he means what he says - and at other times, it's so blatant and infuriating that whoever it's directed towards will have a hard time not losing their temper with him. He loves to see this, to watch his words affect others in such away. It's greatly amusing, to his mind.
Despite all his shortcomings, Todd is not always that unpleasant to others - especially if they're young, female canines of a a medium to small size. (He'll flirt with larger ones too, but not as "seriously"). Flattery is something he's already becoming quite adept at; he knows how to make a lady feel good, while not actually drooling all over the ground or actually meaning all flattering, flirtatious things he says. He likes to play around, and is rarely seriously interested in a female - unless she shows herself to be as charismatic as he perceives himself to be.
And finally, the young fox does have skills that nobody can deny - he's a proficient thief, revelling in the thrill of stealing something without being caught. Of course, being chased is fun too; he loves this as much as watching his clueless victim search for what they think they've simply mislaid. Paw-in-paw with this is the art of spying; he knows how to camouflage himself, how to keep absolutely silent for a long period of time. And who to tell his juicy piece of information to without it getting back to the person he got it from. He loves being devious, loves making others look stupid, and having them run after him.
He is sly, and rather clever, but does sometimes jump into things without thinking. He is also extremely practical and logical, but again, partly due to his youthfully reckless nature, Todd will, just at times, go ahead and do he wants to without sparing a moment to consider the possible consequences. He's not someone you can trust; he's a regular oath and deal-breaker.
Really, Todd just lives for the fun of it all, for in his mind, there's no point to life if you're not feeling alive and having fun. And for him that means causing as much mischief as possible.

History:
Todd was born in the Puzzlewood forest, the only kit of the famous Enrique's younger sister and another red fox. His life as a youngster was fairly happy and normal; he grew up, his parents teaching him everything he needed to know in order to survive on his own. This included what his parents knew about the packs of Hexasol.
One day, when he was about six months old, a dog-fox who was several years older than his parents came to visit. He only stayed with them for about five days, but in that time, the "disappeared" fox taught his nephew all he knew of Hexasol, before vanishing back to wherever he had been. This, perhaps, was part of the reason for how Todd grew to be a rather proud, rather boastful young fox, who despite this attitude was rather proficient as a spy and thief, stirring up trouble when his parents were not looking.
At ten months old, he left home, determined to make a name for himself as his uncle before him had done.
-Nephew to Enrique
