| Alpha: Carter "Burner" Black- He's always had to be "the tough guy." There was never room for weakness when he was growing up. His father taught him to be strong, even if his techniques were a bit brutal. He was born in New York, and has lived here his whole life. From the beginning, he didn't have much. A falling down hut his mother had the blindness to call a "house." A few scrapes of bread and meat once a day was all he got to eat. Sometimes they had some vegetables, and on rare, lucky occasions they had fruit as well. He was the oldest of 5 siblings; the rest are dead now. Most of them died when they were young, from malnutrition or disease. He and his brother, two years younger, were the only two who made it past age 10. His mother died from pneumonia when he was 12. His father was killed two months later by a gang leader who his father owed money to, shot twice in the front of the head. There were three of them left then: him, Caleb, and his 7 year old sister Sadie. He was left to care for his younger siblings on his own. Good thing his father had beat some tenacity and backbone into him. There was no time to be grieving, no room for tentativeness. He did everything he could for Caleb and Sadie, even though it meant almost getting caught stealing a number of times. It didn't matter, though. In the end, Sadie became ill and died a few weeks later. He never even knew what she had. So it was just him and Caleb, and though his brother cried the day she'd died, Carter had nothing left in his heart to feel remorse. All emotions had been forced out of him by his father: fear, grief, sadness. Everything but anger. He can still experience anger quite well. Just when things didn't seem like they could get much worse, everything went terribly wrong. Carter was trying to sell some drugs he'd snatched from a local pharmacy, but Caleb showed up and things went downhill. Next thing they knew, they were caught in the middle of a gang fight. Only later would they learn it had been gangs of werewolves and vampires. It's kind of obvious when you turn into one. For a long time Carter had though nothing could come between him and his brother; that was until he turned into a werewolf, and Caleb became a vampire. Natural enemies. Caleb didn't want to fight, but Carter felt the unexplainable anger boiling in his blood from the start. There was a fight, and eventually Caleb ran off, never to be seen again by his brother. Carter never smiles, never laughs, never jokes. When he does, it shows a very dark sense of humor. He's cynical, distrusting, and hot-tempered. He pretends like he cares about nothing and no one. But his pack is like his family. He feels a need to make up his failure with his real family, and so he would sacrifce himself for any member of his pack. The reason for his nickname, "Burner," becomes evident if you ever see him without a shirt on. He has nasty burn scars all over his back from a time when he rescued a pack member from a burning building. Had he been human, he probably woulnd't have survived. He always wears a gold chain with a cross on it, for reasons unknown to anyone else but him. It's not a sign of his religion; he gave up faith long ago. It's more of a reminder of what his brother became, and also a way of mocking vampires. "Haha, I'm better than you because I can wear a cross." He's 19 years old, and also has a scar on his left wrist that he usually makes an effort to hide. The scar, though he would never, ever tell anyone, is from a long time ago, when his brother and him cut their own wrists and made a blood oath. "We'll always be together." What happens if you break an oath like that? Nothing good. (RPed by Crystalfrost)  |

| Pack Members: Heavenly Breslin- Heavenly is big on the strange hair colors. At 17 years old this girl has been through more hair color changes than anyone she knows. She's a very skilled lycan with some past experiance with weaponry. She knows what she's doing when it comes to being what she is. She is one of the survivors of Nikolai Morganstern's experimentation. She changed her name after the shift though, she still keeps her stele and uses runes as often as possible. She wears long fingerless gloves to hide the runes placed all over her forearms, she doesn't want any speculation from her fellow pack members. In fact none of them know how she came to be who she is, only that she doesn't prefer to talk about it. She's very closed lipped when it comes to her injection. When she's not busy she's hiding in her room listening to loud music, thinking of ways she wished things could've turned out. Despite being part shadowhunter she can be victimized by Silver much like a lycan. (RPed by Moonlightnightmare)  |

Adriel Kay- The older brother of Deven Kay, this 18 year old boy is practically his opposite. Adriel is bitter, anti-social, and hates being acknowledged by other people. He'd rather stand in the shadows and say nothing at all. He got turned into a werewolf two years ago, and no one in his family knows about it. His parents and him grew apart many years before, and Deven and him haven't spoken in some time. It's not really by personal choice. It just kind of... happened. Adriel doesn't speak much, and when he does it's usually not very cheery. (RPed by Crystalfrost)  |
