PERSONALITY: Quirky, practical joker, laid back, cool, happy-go-lucky, kind, friendly, sociable, tough, funny, intellectual, flirtatious, and outspoken, but he is reserved when it comes to the topic of him being a werewolf. He is also a bit of an underdog and can be a slight pervert.
BIOGRAPHY: Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Wolf�s mother died when he was six. For some unknown reason, he was born a werewolf, thus the reason why his right eye resembles that of a wolf and the reason for his name. He also has the ability to turn into a normal wolf whenever he wants to. His father, Richard, raised him in an urban area and kept him locked in the basement on the nights of a full moon so that his son could transform safely without hurting anyone. Richard�s health began to fail him when Wolf was eight years old, so they moved to a rundown and dangerous crime area of Pittsburgh to be closer to friends. Richard could not keep a good job because if his ailments, so he went to work in an automobile repair shop. Because of their financial situation, Richard worked all day and over half of the night. Wolf barely saw his father at all, but he understood why he had to work so much and he became best friends with an African American boy named Tyrel, who was of the same age.
Wolf and Tyrel found a harpy eagle that had been shot in the wing one day while wandering the street. Wolf took the bird home and nursed him back to health. The bird�s miraculous recovery spurred Wolf to name the bird of prey Merlin. Since Merlin was so used to people and refused to return to the wild, Wolf ended up keeping him as a pet.
Because of his high grades, Wolf completed high school early at the age of fourteen in order to make his father proud of him. Tyrel visited Wolf almost every day after school and they would go to the local junk yard to hang out with their other friends. Unfortunately, Tyrel was killed before Wolf's very eyes as a gun shot victim a year later. In an attempt to fill up the emptiness that he felt from the loss of his friend, Wolf soon joined a gang called �The Pack� and trained Merlin to carry messages back and forth to the Pack members. Six months after joining, he forgot that it was a full moon one night and transformed in front of the gang members. He nearly killed two of them while the rest ran away. Since that incident, he never went back to the Pack and avoided them at all costs.
One day, Wolf�s father received a mysterious letter from Japan and traveled there for a business opportunity. Wolf stayed behind to keep an eye on the house. When Richard returned, he quit his job at the automobile repair shop and spent most of his time locked in his room. Wolf never asked questions, but he did wonder what was going on once his father began paying off the house and installing proper furnishings within a few months.
On the night of his sixteenth birthday, Wolf�s world shattered. He awoke within the night to the sound of a commotion in his father�s bedroom. Wolf burst through the door just in time to see Richard being pinned to the wall by a sword running through his torso. The assassin, the Rogue Prince, showed no emotion as he killed the man right in front of his son. Wolf turned into his wolf form and charged with a snarl, but the Prince avoided his attack easily and left as swiftly and silently as a shadow. Richard died in his son�s arms, and Wolf vowed revenge. He soon found out that his father had an assassin sent after him because he was involved in Japan�s black market, selling rare artifacts and drugs in order to make a living. He was quickly becoming a more and more powerful threat, so one of his top competitors, a Yakuza boss, hired an assassin to take him out. Because Wolf had no other close family members, he traveled south with Merlin once he caught word that an assassin had been making swift work of powerful crime lords and businessmen down there. He lived at a shelter in Florida for months, constantly seeking out the Rogue Prince whenever he caught word of him. Soon, however, word of the Prince vanished. Wolf became discouraged and moved to Virginia.
One July day, he was in the mall when he spotted a group of teenagers that included a guy with long black hair and a scar across his face. Wolf recognized him as the Rogue Prince, but everyone referred to him as Sin. Determined not to be rash, he stalked the group and followed them to their house. He continued to do this for weeks on end before he was eventually discovered when a hyper girl (Kenyamon), screamed out, �PUPPY!!!� When she saw him in his wolf form at the barn and chased him out of hiding. Sin recognized him at once. The two boys got into a fight, but were stopped by Plague as she shot a grenade launcher at them. Once things had calmed down and peace was temporarily restored, Ryoko invited him and his harpy eagle to stay. Wolf decided that since he had no home anyway and that he could take advantage of Sin�s fondness for Ryoko, he might as well. Sin could not have cared less if the werewolf boy stayed or went. Once Wolf had spent a few days with the group, he too became rather fond with them all (except for Sin), and could not bring himself to carry out his plan to use Ryoko to get to Sin. However, even though he lives with Sin, he still wants revenge and is constantly strategizing ways to defeat him and avenge his father.
QUIRKS: He hates Sin with an undying passion. He also hates the fact that he is a werewolf and fears for people�s safety. He is a big flirt, as well. He has the ability to transform into a brown and black wolf whenever he wants. On a full moon, he turns into a monstrous werewolf. When this happens, he is out for blood and cannot control what he does. All who are around him are in danger. Wolf has no close living relatives and constantly hangs around with either Zoe, Ryoko, or Hoofamon. He seems to enjoy pestering Wraith, X, and Tomoyami a lot. The eagle claw necklace that he wears he took from Tyrel when he died. Merlin is almost always perched on his shoulder and he has to wear glasses when he tries reading anything. He is also a bookworm and wants to become a scholar or scientist when he gets older. He is a horror junkie and constantly watches horror movies and reads horror books (the classics such as Frankenstein, Dracula, and others being his favorites). He almost always has his camcorder with him to videotape all of the random happenings at his new home for a self made documentary. The downside to him besides the fact that he is a werewolf? He gets fleas easily and he has a habit of running into things---especially door frames and the sides of school buses. Despite all he has gone through, he is always cheerful.

THOUGHTS: Holy Fudd, Wolf is HILARIOUS!!! I just love him to death! >^w^< My friend, Prue, obsesses over him and Kitt and Mouse think that he's a real hoot. XD Anyway, I wanted to be the first to make a werewolf character and made his ethnic background Native American since (at the time), no one had a character of Native American origin. I wanted to create Wolf's personality cheerful and funny; someone for Hoofamon to get along really well with. Now it seems like the two are almost inseparable! ^_^ 0 Also, not everyone gets all depressed and angry when they lose loved ones, so I made Wolf an example of that.
