Lunasa - the late august flame

[[Lychalis]]

Name: Lunasa
Origin/Meaning: Gaelic. Means ‘August’
Pronunciation: Loon – ah - sah
Alias: Luna

Gender: Male
Age: 4 years

Clan: Pyrrhos
Position: Hunter

Element: Fire
Skills: Strong and a deadly capable fighter, fast and agile, observant. His elemental capabilities cause fires to randomly start when he feels threatened or frightened - they will normally start close to the focus of his fear, but not always. Essentially, it's a defence mechanism. Also, when he is angry the area around him heats up. Sometimes to the point of ignition if his anger is extreme.

Species: Mexican Grey
Appearance: Lunasa has long fur with a pale underside. On top, it is a warm reddish-grey colour that darkens to the point of burnt copper running along his spine. The reddish colour goes down his face and along the top of his snout, before returning to the pale colour that goes from his jaw and down his neck.

He is fairly strong built, with dark amber eyes that possess an strong, sometimes watchful gaze.

Quote: An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.
Sanity: Sane
Personality: Lunasa is quiet, and a watchful creature. He doesn't easily loose his temper, but when a little irked he can be fairly intimidating. In this state, he chooses to silently and unblinkingly stare at the person he is annoyed at for a long time. A patient wolf, he likes to bide his time - but can think quickly and act likewise when the situation calls for it.
He doesn't think much of revenge, and this view stayed the same when his previous mate - Kiri - was killed.

In relation to his quiet nature, Lunasa doesn't reveal much about himself or his feelings, rarely finding need to. Although sarcastic and hard shelled, he can be quite compassionate and even kind when he wants to.

History: Lunasa slipped free of his mother’s womb in the forests of Lupine Paiusul, his father was a scout of the Pyrrhos clan. When Lunasa was old enough to leave his mother, Deatach noticed his skill in hunting, his swiftness of foot – and asked one of the Hunters to help fine-tune his skills if they could. Lunasa’s skill increased, and a few months after he was about 2 years old, he joined the ranks of the hunters.

After Lunasa reached 3 years of age, Lunasa met his mate – and at the time, the love of his life – a black wolf named Kiri. Her name meant Mist, and oh – did it suit her. She was like a ghost at the darkness of the night, and could vanish almost without a trace. It made sense that she would be a scout as well. During the day, she was his shadow. She was there to comfort and console when Lunasa lost his father – who was killed when he got cornered by a Bear. Although he lost the fight, he fought well – and almost took the great beast with him.

But then a short way before he reached 4 years of age, he lost Kiri as well – who was killed by a lone wolf one night. The reason was unknown; perhaps her killer was an outcast of the Anatu clan. Although he was deeply saddened by her death, Lunasa didn’t seek out the wolf. He had never thought much of revenge. He did once say though, if he and the wolf crossed paths once more, he would fight the creature – but not to give himself closure, or to avenge Kiri. It would be merely a chance to put himself in her place, although some of the anger that arose from her death would most certainly fuel the duel.
