Here are my lame descriptions of the characters, complete with constantly overlapping traits and listed in order of creation. Their personalities aren't complete, and if they ever are, it's likely some traits will be removed because it's a little repetitive at times.
Vera
A rather rebellious girl. She has trouble taking orders and prefers to be alone. She often hunts by herself, which she knows is dangerous. She's also really stubborn, so getting her to take you along for the ride is difficult. She gets very angry if you follow her somewhere, even if you save her life. She's known to hold grudges, even if they're from ages ago.
[Needs some work, but I'm sure it gets the point across.]
Conrad
This boy has more scars than birthdays. He always wants to lead the charge, or anything, really, and his somewhat-reckless behavior often results in injuries. However, he doesn't let said injuries get to him much, and will keep fighting even if he's on the ground, bleeding and crippled. He enjoys the companionship of other Wildlings, but has quite a temper.
Archie
A collector of anything interesting to him, this boy is known for hoarding plants and meat, even if others need them. While he doesn't really mean any harm, he doesn't like to give others what he finds, as he believes that it belongs to him, and is completely baffled if somebody gives him a gift. Since the other Wildlings are often annoyed by his hoarding behavior, he's not very social. While mostly quiet and peaceful, he can become quite aggressive if anyone messes with his hoard, and if he notices something missing, he'll go around frantically asking if anyone's seen or taken it.
Zephyr
This boy is as curious and playful as a kitten. He gets excited over the smallest things as long as they're new or interesting to him. He's easily flustered and surprised. He's also very loyal to his friends and likes to help them. He has a rather cheerful and jolly personality, but he can be a bit childish at times. If he's worried about someone, he often acts before he thinks.
[Ask Conrad, he knows.]
Eva
This sweet girl has quite a friendly disposition. She views all the Wildlings as friends, unless one of them changes her mind. She can get very lonely if she's alone too long, so she loves sleeping next to someone, even if he's not a very close friend. [If you were wondering, the Wildlings in the group all sleep in the same place, and it's common for friends to sleep next to each other, both to share body heat and because frenneth. Plus, it's reassuring. If something tries to kill you while you sleep in the middle of the night, you know you can hopefully rely on your pal to stop it.] She often drags other Wildlings into games, even if he doesn't want to play. But by the end of it, they're usually both in a good mood. While she's quite a joy to be around, she often refuses to hunt because she doesn't like to kill animals.
[haha mary sue doesn't wanna hunt but eats the food the hunters get and can lift anybody's mood smh my Zephyr]
Leo
The youngest member of the group, this little lad is determined to be just as strong as his fellow Wildlings. He wants to train almost constantly, and is known to push himself a bit too hard at times. He doesn't think before he acts much, and believes he can fight off anything. He's not good at staying put, and is known to follow hunting parties and Wildlings he likes. If he wants to do something, he'll do it, and nobody can change his mind. However, he can be very kind at times, and is strongly attached to his friends, seeing them as brothers.
[This dumb kid is one of my favorites honestly. He small.]
? [Currently nameless. I need to name him.]
The stealthiest of the Wildlings, this young man is a valuable hunter because he's good at sneaking up on and surprising prey. And despite being normally quiet and watchful, he has a mischievous streak and loves to surprise his fellow Wildlings. He also likes to stay hidden for his own protection, and because he can figure out what's going on all over camp without being noticed.
Rex
This boy's climbing skills are unmatched among the Wildlings, as is his repuation. He usually takes 'playful' a little too far, pushing others into rough-and-tumble play and accidentally hurting his playmates. And if he hurts a Wildling or such and he struggles, he just acts more rough. Whenever anyone confronts him about his behavior, he's always confused, as he doesn't believe he's doing anything wrong, just playing. ["You broke my arm!" "I was only playing!"] Another one of his favorite games is to swipe something belonging to another Wildling and flee. It's rare for anyone to catch up with him, which saddens him because there's no challenge. His playfulness aside, he has trouble sitting still, and it's common to see him twitching and stretching if he's not moving around. Climbing is not only his best skill, but a hobby of his. He'll climb trees, rocks, and if they were nearby, likely mountains.

Now that the Wildlings have been named, I shall tell you a boring story I made up one night about them.
Basically, Conrad and Zephyr are good friends and consider each other brothers. Worth mentioning because it's bloody adorable. Or maybe that's just me. Anyway, Zephyr really looks up to Conrad, and Conrad appreciates having a 'little brother' around because he's lonely. True, all the Wildlings are technically lonely because their parents are dead, but his loneliness is more important because I say so. So everything's going fine. But then Conrad gets real fed up with Archie's antics. He believes Archie is a selfish brat for hoarding food and all (I mean he doesn't even eat all of it and some of it goes bad), and they get into a fight. It's real funny to imagine Conrad just knocking him over with one blow, but moving on. This isn't the last fight they get into, though. At some point, a bit of food goes missing from Archie's hoard, and he freaks out when he notices Conrad with it. This time, he's the one being aggressive first. But then there's a bigger fight later on, right in public when a lot of the Wildlings are around. Conrad confronts Archie again, and he seems to have the intention to attack him. As I said, he has a temper. This actually kinda scares Archie, because Conrad's tougher than he looks, but he stands his ground. But before Conrad can land a blow, Zephyr comes out of nowhere and barrels into him. Poor Conrad's too stunned and confused to know how to react, so he just watches and attempts to get up as Zephyr tries to comfort Archie as if they're best buds. The next thing he knows, his little brother Zephyr's spending all his time with his new friend, Archie, and none with him. Archie is very happy that Zephyr 'saved' him, and actually shares some of his food. Zephyr is Archie's first friend, so of course he opens the food vault. So while things are going great for Zephyr and Archie, not so much for Conrad. He's completely confused as to why Zephyr abandoned him when they were so close. After all, he didn't do anything wrong. It's not like Zephyr was buddies with Archie before, and the brat had it coming. As you can expect, Conrad is sad. Sad Conrad.
And that's about all I had.
