Lucied
Pronunciation: LOO-seed

Age 7
Gender Male
Species Marmo Wolf

Physical Description

    Lucied is a tall and powerful Marmo wolf. His sub-species evolved to be hardy, stronger, and larger than Lodoss wolves in order to protect themselves from larger predators. He has a thick, slate gray coat and gold eyes.

Personality

    Noble, loyal and protective of his family (Mia). Since traveling with Mia, he’s come to trust humans more in general, but he trusts his instincts above all when it comes to people. However, he rarely enters cities and towns, and when Mia stays in one, he usually waits outside city limits and fends for himself. Though he is beta to Mia, he still retains his wolven nobility. He will not accept hand-outs of food and will only hunt for himself. He has a soft spot for women of any race, and will allow them to pet him, but if an unfamiliar human man tries to touch him, he will growl and bite. Mia will familiarize any human male friends of hers with Lucied if they travel together for a long period of time.

History

    Lucied was born on Marmo, part of a hardy pack of wolves. When Lucied was nine months old, a group of human poachers found his pack and killed off its members to sell their pelts. Lucied’s mother was killed, as well as his litter mates. He and a sister escaped, but only for a short time. Within a few hours they were found by the poachers and his sister was killed in front of him. Nearby, an elf heard the commotion and came to their den to find the pack slain and the human poachers after the lone wolf pup. As a hunter prepared to bring his club down on Lucied’s head, the dark elf, Felor, came in and killed the poacher. As an elf, Felor was disgusted with the human’s disregard for life, and since his own family was killed by humans, he despised the race even more. Felor dispatched the humans quickly and turned to the wolf pup. Somewhat distrusting at first, Lucied tried to run, but when he sensed Felor’s elven nature, he accepted him.

    Felor took the orphan home and cared for him, naming him Lucied. Both elf and wolf shared a similar history and understood each other well. After a couple years with just Felor, a new person joined their tiny “pack” Mia, another elf, became Felor’s mate. Lucied accepted her as his alpha female, while Felor was his alpha male. After they met Mia, the left Marmo and traveled to Lodoss to seek adventure.

    Lucied became more acquainted with humans as the pair worked as mercenaries, but he never trusted them. At least not males. Female humans were a different story, however, and Lucied loved when they showed him affection. Only six months on the road with Mia and Felor, and their relationship grew tense. His alpha pair fought and separated, and his loyalty was torn. He was not torn for long though, Felor was killed in battle shortly afterwards, and though Lucied mourned his death, he attached himself to Mia.

    For the last five years, he has been Mia’s constant companion.
