Character Type German Shepherd
Alliance - Philantrophy (Canine Alliance)
Picture -
Appearance - Inherits most of his characteristics from his father, only his age is the difference. He is a small runt who has been entitled to carry on the leadership of Philantrophy. He is small, with mostly black, in which he inherited from his father. He is chubby, as it comes with most pups his age, and is well built for his age. He has solid brown eyes, and perfectly formed teeth. Ready for his first tests at becoming a master.
Personality - Heartbroken at the death of his father, Tinuke will resume his final mission, given in the breath of Fireborns last words, "Raise my son, make him into a hero..." -For this, Tinuke will always hold Vernon closely to him, never letting him run out of sight, or into harms way. Tinuke' is very dear to Vernon, and almost accepts him as his father, just as Tinuke accepted Fireborn as his father.
Vernon is advanturous, and will cause trouble to the pack when he occasionally goes on his little "energy spurts" -he sees Ripper's pack as his new home, and his teachers, gaining education from all of them. He will usually be at Tinuke's side, immitating him in everything he does, and often calls Tinuke a hero, which always causes Tinuke to flinch in disbelief, as Tinuke feels the complete opposite, always reponding - "I'm no hero... never was, never will be... I'm just a middle aged dog hired to do some wet work..." - True meaning will become apparent when the roleplay developes.
When sleep, he will usually curl up against Tinuke like a welp would against his mother, and follows the husky everywhere. The two are inseperable.
History - His father is Master Fireborn, a well reknown canine and local hero to the humans, his father was a retired military police dog, of whom sacrificed his left eye in a riot when a gunshot broke the silence, pulling his master out of the way, the bullet passed through the upper portion of his skull, and ruined a perfectly good eye. Seeing this as a difficency in the military, he was retired, giving the Congressional Medal of Honor for his sacrifice, and was adopted by an elderly widow. His father found it difficult to adjust to the Pet-life, and there for, ran out on his own, and soon became a hero when he killed a mountain lion that was closing in on the town with his own fangs. This is what earned him the title as a guardian, and thus, the pound placed an ignore-call on him, and he was entitied with local hero.
Three years later, living in an abandoned prison, he raised dogs who had no influence on the wild -into honored dogs, who would eventually venture out into the world and find, or form packs of their own, having gaining his instruction.
But, his internal clock was ticking, and he gradually became slower, not being able to keep up with the others, muscles stiff from age, and bones wearing away from arthritis, He found love with a dog by the name of Meryl, and from there, they concieved and had a litter. However, despite the efforts of the dogs, Meryl fell ill due to an infection, and soon, passed away, most of the litter itself, too, contracted this infection, and too, passed away. They said that the infection had spread to her milk bladder numerous weeks later, and Vernon was the only one that had been weaned, and thus, the others died.
Vernon had a bond with his father that could go far from that of a father-son relationship. and the presence of his son made Fireborn feel young again. However, when Fireborn was killed by a traitor in the group, Vernon, despite his young age, knew what death was, and knew that he would never again see his father, and thus, the event has left him broken.
He now sees Tinuke as his step-father, and has bonded with him more than anyone ever could. Sleeping at his side, following him in his footsteps, and sharing his food with him. The two are inseperable, and Tinuke will be sure not to let anything harm the pup, heeding the order giving to him by the Supreme Master's dying breath.
Roleplay Example -
The pup was aimlessly chewing on a bone toy that Ripper had given to him, carelessly ignoring the words being told to him by Tinuke, his new-found father who sat less than a foot away from him.
Are you listening to a single thing I'm telling you?! Tinuke glanced down at the pup, who gazed up at him with wide and boring eyes.
Can we play now!? Vernon asked as he knealed down on his fronts, hind in the air as he wagged his tail, Tinuke turning to Ripper with a sideways glance, eyes narrowed down on him.
You gotta be kidding me...
