Character[]
Background[]
Based on her accent, Silvi hails from "Rotland" or Scotland. She joined Monster High a few months after it opened. The whereabouts of her parents and the rest of her family have yet to be disclosed.
Personality[]
Music is Silvi's main hobby, and she is good at singing and playing the guitar. She's a down-to-earth kind of person who dislikes petty arguments that draw the focus from whatever the goal, although she is not immune to getting involved herself.
Appearance[]
Silvi is a grey werewolf with extra fur accumulated around her ears and on her arms. Her eyes are bright blue, matching the shades of blue of her hair. Her hair is long and tied in a high ponytail. Her fashion colors of choice are blue and purple. After her makeover in Electrified, she has rainbow-streaked crimped hair, a rainbow wolf-print dress, pink shoes with a matching bracelet, collar, and hair tie, and pink lightning earrings.
Relationships[]
Family[]
Like most werewolves, Silvi comes from a large family. It is known that she has "a whole litter of siblings" she helped raise.
Friends[]
The first friend Silvi made at Monster High is Woolee, for whom she did the nails. Woolee was so elated with the result she locked the werewolf into a bear hug. The second person Silvi made connections with is Venus McFlytrap, with whom she later joined Deuce Gorgon, Raythe, Bonesy, Skelly, and Woolee in starting a band named Howling Thunder and Frightening featuring Raythe and Deuce and the Rolling Bones and Woolee. Despite some disagreements on the name of the band and the kind of music they would be playing, the group found common ground and had a good run with their first performance playing "Electrified".

Silvi has no pet and has no desire for one, seeing as she's finally free from care responsibilities towards her younger siblings.

Notes[]
- "Silvi Timberwolf" is a double pun. On the one hand, "silvi" derives from "silver" and mixes with "timber wolf", another term for "gray wolf", to emphasize her grey fur. On the other hand, "silvi" derives from "silva", the Latin term for "woods", which fits with the "timber" in "timber wolf".
- Silvi's character concept might have roots in Generation 1. There's a section in Batsy Claro's Brand-Boo Students diary that speaks of an "old gentle monster of a werewolf with bright blue eyes and almost completely white fur" who has great-grandchildren at Monster High. This might be a reference to the Wolfs and the white fur can be due to age, but the blue eyes while the Wolfs all have yellow-to-orange eyes is not as easily explained. Notably, the description is a match to Silvi.
- Her voice actress, Katy Townsend, is also Scottish.
