History
Flicker used to be the dog of a person working at a testing station where they tested all sorts of tihngs.. one day they tested out a bomb or something like that anyway and she got too close, the explosion was what caused her to go deaf. And after that her human decided that he just couldn't take care of her because he couldn't get her to come or anything because she couldn't hear him. He sent her to the pound where he told them to just put her down but she managed to escape from there and run off.
Appearance
Flicker is a white color with a few cream colored patches on her coat, her ears are covered in light brown spots, giving her quite an interesting appearance. Her eyes are a brown color that matches that of the brown spots as well. She is quite a fit dog, and built in quite a lean way that gives her good agility even if she's not as fast as a greyhound would be, though she is still pretty fast. After all, her breed are meant for hunting. She's a great hunter despite her disability.
Character
Flicker is quite an interesting character, because she is deaf she can also not talk.. because of not being able to hear what she's saying. She has several ways to communicate what she wants to say tough, making her expression usually quite comical at times because of her over expressiveness. She falls for dogs easily, and then she can become quite the lovesick puppy, following them around and just generally wanting them to approve of her all the time.. She's incapable of deceiving the one she falls for as well so there's no question that she will be loyal. She's also one of those dogs that seeks someone to lead the way for her, she'd more a follower and when she's left to lead herself she tends to become overwhelmed. She can panic too quite often, though not overly so and she calms down quickly. She's a very very intelligent dog though, and very inquisitive as well. She loves to learn new things and she has many opinions which she can't share with others, which really is a pity because they are some very good opinions and ideas.
