Larus Moon-In-Water

•Beastfolk canine monk•
•Admittedly still low-level•
•Raised in the wilds•
•One of the last of his kind•
•(How does one do this 'living in civilization' thing, again...?)•


...but, sadly, most of Larus' story isn't even his own so much as the aftershocks of generations past. Granted, that may be par for the course for Shifters- Gods only know where that lycanthropic blood in their veins comes from- but in his case, it's a little bit... different.

There exists a monastic sect called The Salaka Temple, a clade of Shifters unified in their quest to quell their bestial natures through meditation and self-mastery. But ages ago, some forgotten heresy or difference in ideology saw a group of practitioners splintered off in- depending on who you ask- either exile or an act of defiance. Without a temple to call their own anymore, they wandered the wilds as a vague nomadic confederacy, continuing all at once temperance and embracement of their feral essence. In those times, they saw no need for allies, let alone the confines of a Temple and its-- as they themselves saw it-- unflinching, self-fearing methods.

But generations later, their defiance has caught up to them. Their numbers dwindled with each year; now, Larus is not only one of scant few remaining practitioners of the schism group's teachings, he's also the last son of a dwindling species, with he and his mother being the only two Tweed Wolf Shifters left in the world. And thus begins his adventure, with one weighty burden in the back of his mind: Knowing that he's the last hope to ensure that his kind and his craft does not vanish from the face of the earth-- or, if nothing else, to prove to himself that the teachings passed down to him were worth the price they all paid for it.

So if he seems like he's trying a bit too hard to impress, well, just know what's behind it all.
