Personality:
[Psychotic] [Aggressive] [Relentless] [Cruel] [Ruthless] [Dark humored] [Possessive] [Child-minded] [Forgetful] [Loyal] [Creepy] [Insecure] [Protective] [Confused]
Psychotic & creepy: Apparition can often be found muttering to herself, claiming to see things that aren't there. She has difficulty telling the difference between what's real and what's fantasy due to her schizophrenia, and many dogs find this particularly eerie.
Aggressive & relentless: Apparition isn't a particularly aggressive dog, but occasionally the infection takes over and she becomes a ruthless killing machine. She will even attack dogs even after their dead if she feels threatened by them (her schizophrenia sometimes makes her think that the dog is alive and poses a major threat) and then proceed to eat their mangled bodies.
Ruthless & cruel: When the infection takes over as mentioned above, Apparition will kill anything in her path. No protest can stop her, and she often gets very damaged during these attacks (although, she can't tell because she can't feel pain) and looks like a total mess.
Dark humored: Apparition has a dark sense of humor, meaning that she finds the topics of death and murder intriguing and maybe even funny at times. Because of this, she finds Ghost particularly amusing.
Possessive: If Apparition has something or someone she likes, she does not enjoy letting it go and will protect it at all costs. She does not like others having access to her things and can often be seen lashing out at nothing in scenarios where she believes that someone is taking her belongings.
Child-minded: Despite the way she acts otherwise, Apparition has a kind of rough understanding of the world. She doesn't see things as bad, and this grants her a kind of innocence.
Forgetful: Apparition has grown to have a somewhat bad memory, finding herself incapable of recalling back memories at a time. The cause of this is the infection, which has riddled her mind.
Loyal: Apparition is a very loyal canine - she will stick by anyone as long as she sees them as a friend rather than foe. Her loyalty is also a part of her possessiveness where she refuses to give her belongings up. When her infected bouts of rage appear, the only dogs she won't attack are the ones she is deathly loyal to.
Creepy: Apparition's schizophrenia has granted her a status of eerie by those of whom she has met because of her schizophrenia. She can be often be seen and heard rambling on about something non-existant and is always claiming that her sister Lois is still alive because she can see her, but it is in fact a hallucination. She sometimes hears voices which, when mentioned, can normally creep other wastelanders out.
Insecure: Apparition is a rather insecure canine, mostly because of the infection. She's constantly glancing around, checking behind her back and sniffing the air. She sometimes feels threatened by what seems like nothing because her mind is a mess, both because of her schizophrenia and the infection.
Protective: This can be towards both her belongings and her friends (which she considers her belongings anyways). She doesn't allow people to damage or hurt her belongings, and if they try to make off with them Apparition will ensure a swift death if possible.
Confused: Since she's constantly seeing illusions and delusions along with hearing voices, Apparition is quite often in a state of confusion. She finds it difficult to tell the difference between real and what's fantasy, and likes to play a sort of 'game' with those she trusts, saying something she thinks is real and then saying 'real or not real'. "Lois is standing next to me... Real or not real?" "Real."

Strengths

Size: Due to her almost colossal size, Apparition is a very sturdy and durable canine.
Strength: Apparition is very well-muscled and powerful.
Cruel mind: Apparition's cruel mind means that she doesn't have trouble killing when necessary.

Weaknesses

Child-minded: Because of her being child-minded, Apparition often misunderstands certain concepts and ideas. She sometimes doesn't see the issue in doing something until it's too late.
Speed: Since her large body wasn't build for speed, Apparition is quite slow.
Intelligence: Apparition isn't such an intelligent one, and often makes mistakes. Because of this, she is normally very willing to take orders from other dogs.

History

Apparition was born to a small colony of wastelanders in a secluded spot away from the other inhabitants of the wastelands. Her people were different to others in a way, but they were survivors. They were all part of the same family, and this is quite literal as each member of their small society believed that breeding outside of their family would increase their chances of catching the infection, leadnig them to inbreed constantly. Apparition and her siblings was a result of this inbreeding.
So there it was, Apparition was born on one unimportant day much like any other. Most of her siblings were small and weak, but very few, perhaps one or two, were much stronger than the others. Before Apparition had even turned one, her two runt siblings were killed by her mother and other, larger siblings for food. While fighting the two smaller pups, Apparition got bitten on her thigh and to this day the same injury refuses to heal.
Around this time, Apparition, her two other living and her mother were all showing signs of the infection. Of course, Apparition didn't understand what the infection was, let alone what it could do, so why should she care? Only when her mother tried to convince her oldest and largest sibling to kill his two younger siblings, which included Apparition, did she realise what it could really do. Luckily for Apparition, her brother refused. Unfortunately for her brother, he was left with two grin-like scars on his cheeks from where their mother had attacked him for refusing to kill Apparition and her other kin.
That same night, their mother abandoned the three. Her older brother left, also, but Apparition thought that it was unlikely that he left out of malice. She decided to leave, also, and travelled for years until she finally settled down. She was offered a spot as raider, and she could hardly refuse. Years later, when the packs split, Apparition was promoted to chief raider and has ever since been serving under her Queen, Ghost.
