Light survivors of the Dark Cities
These are the survivors of the dark cities that are now part of the "Ghost pup" pack. They are the survivors of the Light specie among the cities that were brutally slaughtered by the Shadow and Hero Clans. Kane his pack counts 12 Light wolves.
Well known for being Healers, Merchants and Peace makers, these wolves were among the most gentle groups of wolves among the Dark Cities. Just like the Hero clans they too had a fascination to become merchants as they focused mostly on trading special herbs which could only grow by their care and light energy. Herbs known for healing and adrenaline boosts. Other than that they were often called over for treating injured wolves due to the special ability they have that releases a special aura from their paws. As the attacks took place, they suddenly had to deal with extremely aggressive light wolves and Shadow wolves. The light wolves of the Hero clans protected the shadow wolves from the Shadow clans, as they worked together to take down these packs of light wolves. Most pups have experienced slave camp as not to many were lucky enough to get away. Upon being freed there was a mix and huge change of personalities. As some maintained their natural calm temper and behavior, some became the complete opposite to the point of being obsessed with torture. Within Kane his pack they heal other wolves, those that chose to become healers, and other than that they are the reason vegetation can live down the sanctuary. As plants and trees were all planted there, it was with the care of the plant wolves and light wolves that these plants could grow. They maintain this care every single day to ensure their presence can allow these plants to live without ever needing the real sun. They are extremely accepting towards any specie within Kane his pack, as they too had to feel what both the electric and shadow survivors had to feel. As some individuals would either be afraid or judge them based on their specie. Luckily this is still the minority. Because of this the light wolves grew closer to the Electric and Shadow specie. Even if light and Shadow are opposites many of them respect Kaitou, as he protected the group leader of the light wolves from an attack that could have been fatal.
Within the slave camps a mix of merchant, peace makers and healer survivors remains. Known to be gentle by past, some remained true to it, others changed drastically. But one thing is clear, the 5 survivors are really close to one another no matter if some of their traits aren't always appreciated within the small group. They have a deep understanding equal to that of the Shadow and Electric survivors, knowing what it feels like to be judged for their species. They too vow to never let a species control their judgement. With this they are very accepting even if others aren't accepting to them. They are mostly found socializing with the Shadow survivors. The guards tend to pick on the light wolves though, being one of the main reasons so many of them died. Often used for experimenting, many are left with deep trauma's. They remain a close group, with few individuals more aggressive and few passive.
Valon OriosRaised in the Dark Cities among Healers, Merchants, and Peacemakers, there was barely any room for violence in his childhood. He grew up admiring his father who saved him from a wolf bird when he was a puppy. He wanted to be just like his father. Because of this, he helped wherever he could in the pack until he finally received official training for the ranks within his pack. He was completely unprepared for the Shadow Clan attack, and he and his siblings were quickly captured. At the Slave Camps,he tried to use his peace making skills to calm down a situation, only to quickly learn that peace was not an option in the Slave Camps. He kept trying to make peace in order to protect the other pups. Only after receiving his facial scar, resulting blindness in his right eye, did he finally stop. He began to lose confidence in himself and his abilities to do anything useful. Eventually receiving a thorn ear for protecting his siblings. As they separated him from his family, he had given up on everything. When rescued, he realized some of the light survivors were much younger than him. He sympathized with them and eventually was chosen as a group leader. He didn't feel suited for the task due to his own motivation being rather low. But during a routine mission his life was in danger, it was then that Kaitou protected him and saved his life. Ever since that moment he admired him, even when Kaitou was so much younger. He assumed if such a young wolf could still have hope, then there is no way he wouldn't.

Indela RedBorn to a healer family. Her small demeanor meant she wasn't suited for hunting or combat, and so, her parents expected her to follow in their footsteps and become a healer. They began to teach her when she turned ten and she came to enjoy the work she did with her parents. Indela was thirteen when her pack was attacked. She was out running an errand for her parents and was alerted by the howls and screams coming from the direction of her pack. She raced home only to witness a massacre. In the blur of battle, with the stench of blood in the air, it was difficult for the young wolf to spot her parents. Desperate to find them, she raced into the heart of the battle, able to dodge nimbly through the tide of fighting wolves. But, the number of bodies on the ground kept growing, and it became more dangerous for her to remain as the Hero and Shadow Clans picked off her pack. Indela became targeted and was quickly captured by a Shadow wolf. She was brought to the slave camps where it became clear that wolves did not last long. She watched her friends being tortured and beaten, some even killed under the harsh conditions. Indela was forced to adopt an aggressive nature, breeding a desire for revenge in her heart. When she was rescued by the Ghost pups, she joined in the torture of the Shadow clan wolves. However, she also acts as a healer, remembering what her parents taught her in the past. She was given the rank as a group commander.

Leonidus RomanusBorn to two healer wolves, he was their first litter of four pups, and his parents had a second litter with three pups five years later. Throughout his years living in the dark cities, he became fascinated with fighting as a sport and would practice it for fun. But he mainly practiced healing and became a prodigy to his parents. When the attacks took place. His parents sacrificed themselves to save their pups, but their efforts were in vain because all of Leons siblings were killed or abducted to the slave camps. He only managed to escape because of his interest in fighting and his special symbol move. He felt helpless that he couldn't help his siblings, but regrouped with other dark city survivors. As he began his new life with the other dark city survivors, he began training with the shadow wolves on fighting so he could prepare himself to find his siblings from the slave camps. One of his first raids was led by Seth, who rescued Micaiha. Leon thought she was pretty at first, but didn't think much of her beyond that at the time. As Micaiha began healing from her slave camp experience, Leon became charmed by her gentle, loving personality as well as her willingness to help others. He eventually fell in love with her and became a sort of bodyguard for Micaiha at times. Within the next few raids Leon participated in, he managed to find and rescue his sisters, which overjoyed him. Ever since then he's been very overprotective of both of them.

Allura RomanusAllura was born in a litter of three, five years after her parent's first litter. She was quite small, and considered a bit of a runt. None the less, she was very cute and loved following around her older siblings, trying to eagerly learn from them. When the Shadow clans and the Hero clan's attacked her pack, she was one of the pups used as bait. She together with her sister Michiko got captured. During her time in the slave camps, she was considered too weak to work for her captors and instead was used as a toy to torture and play with. She lost her eye during one of those sessions, and later, her ear got so torn that it would remain floppy like it was when she was a pup. Allura lived every day in fear, only having her sister as comfort, until she was rescued by the Ghost pups. And to her delight, her older brother, Leonidus was with them. If it wasn't for him still being alive, she wouldn't have remained the spirited young female she had always been, before the attacks on her pack. Ever since she lost her eye and had her ear almost ripped off, she has been blind and partially deaf on her right side. Due to this unfortunate situation which makes hunting or fighting rather dangerous, she focused on healing instead. She is somewhat possessive over her brother, in a cute way.

Michiko RomanusMichiko was born in a litter of three, five years after her parent's first litter. She was very playful but not to keen on making friends. One day, she and her older sister left home as she was teaching her how to collect water using moss from a nearby stream. As they headed home, they could hear something went terribly wrong. As screams and cries could be heard. Her sister hid her, telling her to wait untill she is back. But she was terrified, and her whimpering gave her away as a Shadow wolf pushed his head into the bush she hid in. Running away in fear she noticed light wolves and quickly mistook them for wolves of her own pack. Trying to seek comfort one of them quickly picked her up as she realized to late they weren't here to help her. As she soon saw her sister was captured too. At the slave camp she tried to please the guards by telling jokes, it usually didn't work, but they never scared her either. Aside from her sister no wolf could easily approach her as she was quite a snippy wolf. As they were rescued, she too could reunite with her older brother. But unlike Allura, she isn't so needy of him. Quite often she prefers to be on her own. She became a lead hunter, and trained to become a deadly fighter.

Ritoru GayakuRitoru was born to talented healers who participated in trading goods in the merchant department. Ritoru was the smallest of his litter, smaller than even the average pup. Because of this, he was babied more than his siblings and was kept close. the smallest causes would cause his parents to stand right over him. He hated it, as his siblings made fun of him. From this, he grew bitter of his parents, even if they meant good by it. He hated being treated like a helpless pup. Shock ran through his pack when the Shadow and Hero Clans attacked them, Ritoru being 11 at the time. In exchange for his life, his parents gave up their lives, leaving Ritoru torn. They protected him to their last breath, and all this time he complained about their presence. Crying for their comfort, he and his siblings were taken to the Slave Camps. Ritoru immediately hated it, questioning if any of this was actually happening. He fought back against his oppressors in rage and grief, but to no avail. When rescued and part of the Ghost pups, he hungered for vengeance against the Shadow Clans. At the pack, he's known for growing being very responsible for his pack mates because of the undying loyalty his parents showed for him, as well as his sarcastic and bitter attitude. Compared to most adult males, he is rather small, being around the height of an adult female, causing him to be confused as a teenager quite a lot, as some tease him about it.

Lana HikaruAs a pup, she was very eager to listen to her parents and learn as much as she could. Lana was pretty young when the Hero Clans attacked her pack, she didn't know what was happening until she was told to run by her parents, in which case she did. Unlike other pups, she was the only few that escaped the clutches of the slave camps, witnessing her friends and siblings being, rather violently, taken by the shadow wolves and, more violent, light wolves. Being on her own with a few other lucky wolves, she was still trying to process what just happened. When they came across other survivors, all of them headed towards the sanctuary known by the Dark Cities alone. There she met up with the other survivors and Kane. When Kane began to free the slaves, Lana did anything she could to help them, many where injured but she was able to manage with the help of other wolves, never judging them or blaming them for what had happened. They where all in this together. She focused on being a healer as this was something the pack greatly needed above all. When conflicts come up, she tends to try and bring back the peace which caused her to become a peace maker as well.

Veris HirayosVeris was raised by a merchant and a healer, and was taught from an early age the importance of showing kindness over all, to never believe one side or the other, but first to listen to both sides. That all changed the day his pack was attacked, and he was dragged to the slave camps with his siblings. The slavers forced him, among others, to heal any slaves that wear nearly tortured to death, so that those who begged for death would never get it. It hurt him to see the pain the pups went through, especially the younger ones. When he finally stood up to the torturers, he himself was nearly killed.The day the Ghost Pups freed the slaves was like a dream that he dared not believe. They were saved. They were free. He vowed to aid the Ghost Pups in destroying the camps, and ensuring that the Shadow Clans could never inflict such horrors upon any living being again. In the pack he focuses on bringing peace, so many young wolves are bound to come with conflicts, so he tries to calm down the young ones if needed. He keeps ab eye on all.

Sayake SonraIn her early year Sayake was a very cheerful and energetic pup. She enjoyed collecting things and would occasionally return home with stones, pieces of bones and more. She looked up at her parents as both of them were skilled hunters. Whenever she would spot an insect, she would hunt it as if it was real prey. But when the attacks of the Shadow clans took place, everything quickly changed for her. Being captured and becoming a slave, shut her down mentally. The harsh treatment made her so terrified, that she obeyed without any fuss. In result she become depressed and lost all trace of her cheerful side. One day though, she managed to get away.

Chrisan ThemuChrisan was born in a litter of only 2. He and his sister Echina were extremely close to one another. As their parents would always call them the twins. But their interests were quite different. Chrisan was extremely eager to learn hunting, having seen his parents hunt on a distance made him feel truly amazed of them. He would often nag to try it too, but his parents would refuse as he was way to little. Chrisan then practiced on becoming faster. His specie isn't really known for being the fastest, but he believed with training he could be faster than the average light wolf. When the attacks took place he was playing with his sister. He attempted to flee and run, but quickly was grabbed as his tiny paws could only get him so far. In the slave camp Chrisan behaved very calm and urged his sister to do the same. He noticed the guards took more pleasure out of wolves showing weakness or aggression. Being neutral and ignoring insults the guards usually didn't bother harming him. As a rescue took place, both him and his sister got free. As he was out, he could finally do his first hunt. Ever since he focused on hunting to provide for the pack. He deeply care of his sister too, and will always give her his food if there is little food to be found.

Echina ThemuEchina was born in a litter of only 2. She and her brother Chrisan were extremely close to one another. As their parents would always call them the twins. But their interests were quite different. Echina early on was focused on learning to become a healer. But her interests went further than that, she wanted to learn how to make meals energizing, or herbs having extremely useful effects to aid. As they got captured, Echina did get in favor of the guards. As one got hurt she managed to convince him she could heal it. Although most of her friends weren't to keen on that, she insisted not all were bad. The wolf she helped turned out to be quite friendly, as he would explain he had to follow orders. Even if most of her friends found this a bad excuse, she decided to go through with healing anyways. In the end this guard would always be near her, as if he was making sure no other guards would pick on her. She ended up befriending a wolf named Hanaka who had the same mindset. As she got freed, she focused on healing wolves of the Ghost Pups, and other than that she also focuses on herbs with lasting effects. She does try to believe not every wolf working for the Shadow Clans is bad, but she has learned many sadly are. She and Hanaka became best of friends.

Serkan DaraSerkan's parents were well known peace makers, he was proud of that and even wanted to become one. Although Serkan never ended up in a slave camp...he did expirience the attacks extremely close. As they started, his mother threw him in a tree within the pack, knowing most wolves aren't exactly looking for others in the trees. As he sat there he was ordered to stay quiet. As the attacks went on he saw wolves being killed, ripped apart and even pups being brutally slaughtered. As his parents desperately protected the area of the tree, they too got cornered. Serkan had to see how the wolves slowely killed them, as they seemed to take pleasure out of it. As hours past, he was left alone in the tree seeing all the dead bodies for hours. As he went down trying to seek comfort from his mother's dead body, it was then that hate was boiling inside. He eventually left and later on became part of the Ghost Pups. Serkan is known as one of the most violent wolves within the pack, as he's nicknamed as "blood eye". He gets along perfectly with Kaitou, as he is often seen around public torture sessions. He enjoys to see his enemies crawl and beg for their lives. As he stated before, he can never forgive the Shadow and Hero Clans. If Serkan gets extremely angry, it seems only Kaitou can snap him out of it.

Raia HelyaialRaia was a very energetic and aggressive pup. Her family being known for their kindness and as great healers, had their paws full with her. Her family would refer to her as a winged fireball due to all the energy she had. She was quite solitary due to her bold nature and loud attitude. Spending most time alone as it concerned her parents. When the attacks took place, her parents lacked any sort of skill in self defense, causing them to die very quickly as she witnessed it. After that loss her attitude changed, she felt a craving for company and care. She talked to everyone or tried to, as she only found herself having friendship with the electric, light and shadow wolves. Her loud attitude got her into trouble however as a guard gave her a deep slash on her shoulder resulting into a scar. Her dreams remain though, she wants to get free, train and become stronger. Her spirit it what keeps her going.

Yarkiy LumiereYarkiy was always watching her siblings, making sure they wouldn't get themselves into trouble, taking a rather responsible role. Her parents were both healers and peace makers, wanting to follow in their footprints she attempted to befriend every individual within the pack. When the Shadow clans attacked she saw her siblings being taken from her, them being from a younger litter made her worry like no tomorrow. In a rush she attempted to attack the guard, who sadly could easily stop her resulting in the damage on her head and ear. Within the slave camp, not finding any of her siblings she realized their most likely fate. Because of this, she grew to become aggressive and not to pleasant. Despite that she still takes the role of a peace maker trying to avoid fights among the slaves. This has resulted in her taking a beating from fellow slaves, but luckily plenty of wolves have her back. She has a special ability that can calm down wolves and put them asleep.

Elios AkanisBorn into a large family full of healers and peacemakers led by his grandfather Abelos, it was expected from him to follow in their footprints despite the fact that wolves by law of the Dark cities are to make their own choice on that matter. Elios however lacked all interest that his family practiced. When meeting a retired assassin he befriended the wolf which resulted in this wolf training him for these skills. When his grandfather found out, he refused to speak to him. Elios was shocked and deeply hurt at this sudden cold treatment, but it only made him all the more determined to complete his training. When the attacks took place, he panicked wanting to go to his family but instead found himself running away in fear only to be captured. Elios was subjected to a lot of beatings within the slave camps due to his snarky attitude towards the guards, and the trouble he occasionally causes. The beatings are not as harsh recently, and he's been advised by his fellow Light slaves to keep his mouth shut before something worse happens to him. Elios displays great confidence towards them, in an effort to hide his own insecurities. With a big smirk, he assures them every time that he'll be able to get away with it next time.

Because of what has happened to him, he struggles speaking clearly and therefore stutters a lot when he speaks.

Light survivors - Gallery
The survivors of the Ghost pups were originally going to be designed by myself as the creator, but then I changed my mind realizing it would be more fun to involve the supporters of AzureHowl. Because of this many of the survivors will be fan designs by the supporters of AzureHowl.
