Mutt
1 year - male - canine - kai ken mix - loner - travels with Spadix
Personality: Mutt is truly a hotheaded teenager. He knows no danger and will rush into a battle without a single thought that he might lose. He is kept his check mostly by his friend Spadix. Mutt looks up to Spadix as his mentor and as a father figure, a replacement for the parents he never got to know. Mutt likes to talk before he thinks of what he's saying and as a result, much of what he says comes off as rude or offensive. However after many fights with other dogs and cats, Mutt has started to learn when it's best to keep his mouth shut. He is fiercely protective of his mentor and if anything comes near Spadix, Mutt will not hesitate to rip them apart. He is much the same with prey, whatever Mutt catches remains his until he is finished with his meal, anyone brave enough to try to steal from the cocky teenager won't escape without a few scars. Though protective and rude, Mutt has learned from his mentor that usually it's best to not pick fights unless you have something to gain from it.
Appearance: Mutt's coat is a beautiful dark red brindle, in the dark he appears all black but when the light hits his coat the red under the brindle really shines through. The only breaks of his brindle color are white on the bridge of his nose, on all four of his paws, and a small patch on his chest. His build is thick and stocky, packed with muscle. After many fights, his coat has some battle scars and a few tears in his ears.
History: Mutt was born in the abandoned city from two mixed breed parents, his father being descended from a beautiful brindle kai ken that was passed down to him, and two of his pups. Mutt had two siblings, a male and a female. His parents cared for their pups dearly but it was inevitable that soon they would have to leave. The fighting between the local dogs, cats, and wild animals had become so fierce that it was a serious threat to the newborn pups. With full intentions of picking Mutt up later, his mother and father each held a pup and traveled far away to somewhere safer. When they returned, their last pup had disappeared. The two new parents searched nearby to find their son but nothing turned up. His mother went home to care for the two pups they had left at the new den while his father continued to search the city. Days passed and neither the mother's pup or mate returned to her. She mourned for the loss of half of her family. What she and her missing mate did not know was that their pup was actually safe and sound. A traveling dingo had taken the pup in, thinking it had lost its parents and instead of eating a helpless pup like most predators would, he did not want such a young pup to fall victim to the cold. The dingo was named Spadix, and he tried his best to raise the pup. Mutt never knew his real name, he only knew the nickname "mutt" that Spadix called him by and grew up believing it was his real name. As Mutt got older he learned the ways of hunting and defending food and shelter. He had earned his keep with Spadix.
Season born: autumn
RP Sample: Mutt crawled low to the ground, and slow enough that his steps made no sound at all. Drool ran down his jowls as he imagined eating his next meal. But it was not time to eat yet, his prey was still alive, a large rabbit chewing on some leaves stood unaware by a tree. Mutt had become an adept hunter and his skills fed both him and his friend. Mutt made the mistake of daydreaming and stepped on a small branch making a quiet cracking sound, but enough to alert the rabbit. Mutt flattened himself on the ground and stood completely still, his brindle fur making adequate camouflage in the dark forest. The rabbit did not seem to notice him and went back to eating its meal. Mutt silently thanked the universe for letting the rabbit ignore him and went back to crawling closer to his prey. When he finally decided he was close enough he held his breath for a moment and then charged at the rabbit. It jumped and stared to try running but Mutt was too fast for it. Mutt nearly ran into a tree but turned sharply enough and got his fangs dug into the rabbit's leg. It screamed and bit at Mutt's nose but the pain didn't seem to bother him. Mutt released for only a moment, his lips curled up in a snarl and but down again on the rabbit's back. It screamed again but was cut short as a spray of blood splashed onto Mutt's face. Satisfied with his successful hunt, Mutt released the rabbit, its body falling limp on the ground. Mutt shook a little and licked the blood from his lips. His tail wagged and he turned around and barked at a tree. From behind the tree came his friend, Spadix who was smiling just as much. Mutt wagged his tail more at the praising smile. He was growing fast, and becoming a better hunter with each kill.
