Annabelle, the Magic Wonder Dog!
Annabelle (a.k.a. Annie)
"Annabelle, the Magic Wonder Dog" is the stage name of the famous performing dog of the Unsurpassed Artists of Theatre Magique.
Annabelle, usually called "Annie" by her owner and the other members of the Unsurpassed Artists, is a Delivery Dog that was found lost and injured during the travels of the theater troupe. Diaanen Elorialir Alea'athem heard Annie whimpering pitifully as she lay by the side of the road, bleeding and with broken bones. With her Elvirim empathy and knowledge of medicine, she was able to stop the bleeding from Annie's wounds and nurse her back to health.
Delivery Dogs normally wear a tight-fitting backpack that doesn't interfere with their movement in which they carry the letters and small parcels that they are delivering, but Annie's was missing. It seemed certain that someone did not want whatever Annie was delivering to reach its destination, and so had attacked her and stolen her backpack. Given how determined that Delivery Dogs are to make their delivery, whoever had attacked her had probably suffered some serious bite wounds of their own.
At first Annie, like other Delivery Dogs, was wary of Diaanen and the other member of the troupe, but with Diaanen's natural empathy and connection with animals, Annie soon warmed up to her and then the others. Naturally intelligent with a friendly temperament, Annie won the hearts of the troupe. Everyone loved her. Annie also befriended Xobeng, Diaanen's little pet fox, and the two often played together after Annie had recovered enough.
It took many weeks for Annie's injuries to fully heal, but during that time, no one came looking for her. The Artists of Theatre Magique had to move on to the next stop on their itinerary, and none of them could bear to leave her behind, and so Annabelle became a member of the troupe, with Donatello Genovesi's blessing. Already well-trained as a Delivery Dog, members of the troupe soon discovered that Annie learned new commands quickly and was eager to do so. Knowing that people love animal acts, one of the members of the troupe, a young woman that especially loved Annie, Valeriana Cugini, asked Donatello and Diaanen if she could work with Annie to develop an act. Knowing that Valeriana loved Annie and vice versa, they agreed. Soon after, Valeriana were dancing together and doing magic tricks. Valeriana taught Annie to count (and she actually could count reliably up to ten or so) and the names of dozens of objects. Crowds loved Annie and Valeriana, and soon they were billed as one of the top acts of the Unsurpassed Artists of Theatre Magique, drawing crowds and applause wherever they performed.
