Rook

From WikiFur, the furry encyclopedia.

Rook (Wade Willems-Kramer, to those outside the furry fandom) is an anthropomorphic North American River Otter, writer, aspiring musician and radio personality, approximately twenty-two years of age who is currently residing in Chicago, Illinois. Born on the 2nd of May, 1984 in Viroqua, Wisconsin, Rook has spent the majority of his life between the rolling hills of rural southwestern Wisconsin. Soft spoken and something of a hick, he is nevertheless well read and able to engage a multitude of personalities.

[edit] History

Rook was originally an otter castaway, created for the purpose of roleplaying on the now defunct Fort Ruddler, a Proboard-powered RP website based in the Redwall universe of Brian Jacques’ creation. Given the last name Scarbin, Rook was a perilous and fearless sailor, his most striking and defining features being the myriad lash scars that crissed and crossed a majority of his body.

When all activities at Fort Ruddler stopped, Rook Scarbin was removed from the roster there and subsequently adapted for the furry fandom, his personality and interests reforming to more closely resemble those of his creator.

[edit] Interests

Rook’s tastes are wide and varied. His truest passions revolve around extreme forms of music, the most prominent being the realm of heavy metal. Skipping from genre defining highpoint to genre defining highpoint, he attends concerts regularly, spends entirely too much money on his musical obsession and is, for all accounts and purposes, a metal geek. Other interests include radio programming from yesteryear, fiction and fantasy novels, and occasionally politics
