Author: Kaw
Subject: Jath, Taksha... I have failed you...

Name~ Kaw
Age~ mature adult (in his 80s)
Gender~ male
Breed~ red
Appearance~ A tall red at 5' even at the muscular shoulder, Kaw is well-muscled but not as barrel-stocky as most of his breed, tending towards an almost white-ish build with his long legs. With lackluster, ragged fur of a blackened red hue and various broken copper claws, this red is obviously just healing from a massive battle -- another tell-tale is the jagged remains of his tailblade, nothing but the root remaining to very slowly regrow. Fresh scars streak noticeably all across his torso and limbs, though none touch his head or neck... making his milky left eye all the more startling in contrast to his jungle-green right one. The wound is emphasized by a lack of a left eyelid to cover the blinded eye. Despite this, his senses are incredibly keen.
Personality~ Despite all he's been through, Kaw hasn't changed a bit. Still militaristic, harsh-voiced, and strict, this is one red you don't want to mess with, physically OR mentally. Highly intelligent and surprisingly perceptive for his breed, Kaw has unparalleled bravery and, despite his age, is something of a dare-devil. He loves a good fight, mostly because he can kick just about any Korat's tail all the way to the Crodbva mountains (half a continent south of this pack ~_^). Despite his rough exterior, Kaw really is a good soul within... you just gotta dig past all the battle scars to find it. ^_^;; Though he's a bit forceful and vengeful currently with a healthy appetite for bloodshed, due to his history...

History~ Kaw was not always called Kaw... nor did he always look like he just got mauled by an angry Minmon. Until about a year ago, he was a very handsome, unscarred red named Shucho who was pack leader to around fifty Korats. Strict but fair, his pack was one of the most prosperous Korat-only packs on Handak (the other main continent of Lavana; Shula's pack is on Penyns) for years upon years. Though he didn't dabble in energy-use, as back then it was pretty much unknown (Wureshi is about ten years younger than Kaw, and thus Shucho had no need of training to combat the black then), Shucho was considered a Koratian master at thirty and specialized in overcoming physical limitations of endurance, agility, speed, and most importantly -- strength. He also trained his entire pack as a matter of 'growing up' to be exceptional warriors, and also to hone their senses to incredible keenness. (If you're wondering... this used to be Atumi's pack, until the black was about five and had an encounter with Wureshi. Read here. Shucho's training is why Atumi's senses are what they are now.) Life was good... until a certain black killer traced one of his greatest enemies to this pack. Wureshi has fought Atumi many times, most ending in a draw, and neither black able to kill the other. In annoyance with this, Wureshi slaughtered Shucho's entire pack... by himself... without any grand energy blasts or anything like that. It was melee. Shucho was the last left standing after the two-day battle, having lost longclaws, various teeth, his tailblade, and with broken bones/gaping wounds galore... Wureshi began to go in for the kill but despite the black's incredible strength, he had never really tested his endurance... Shucho had. Two days' fighting after that, Wureshi had not killed his opponent, and had actually begun to lose the battle. Before Shucho could press the advantage, Wureshi summoned a Portal and left in an effort to preserve his own skin. Shucho was barely able to heal the massive wounds plaguing his body, and as a way to remember the battle, he changed his name to Kaw... meaning Pain in a Handak Koratian dialect. As soon as he was able to move, he buried his pack and set out to find the reason for the slaughter... Atumi.
