Background History: Wulf has lived his whole life in the town with his mother, Mary. He used to go to school- but dropped out several years ago. This means that he is slightly older then Bear and Cockroach, because when he goes back to school, he is still in there grade- but is isn't very obvious. He runs a small gang- but its dubious how much he runs them, because you never see him with them before he deserts them- but in actuality, Wulf has never put much thought or effort into freindships- until the posse. I suppose he was never ready for it before- he is rather unresponsible. He's a tough guy- much like Bear in that he runs about on the bad side of life- hanging out in a bar poolhouse and snubbing his nose at morals, etc. However, he has theories to back up all his rebelous notions. He has a large streak of Bear's fist approach in him- but he is also a philosipher- he loves to talk, rationalize, and work things about to his advantage.
Clothes: Wulf is a ruffian- he is not a school boy, either- so he has more grungy clothes. He has the same style of pants- but they are coarse and brown, and are more dirty. His shoes are scruffed, his shirts are plain like Bears- but ill fitting and looking as if carelessly slopped on. His father is rumpled, black, and looks mop-like.
Role in Posse: Cockroach could never have been a leader if he tried- Bear could have quite capably, but since Wulf can be nothing but a leader, he is quite content to stay on the side. Yes, Wulf is the leader.
Suitable Actor: Wulf is the hardest to cast. He is the main character of the play- and a very particular one in my mind. A good way to approach him is to take Bear and make him more laid back- more expressive- but still keep that grim approach to life. Wulf can put his way of life into words where Bear cannot. That is the basic reason he is the lead.
