Rhodri

Rhodri had a complicated start to his life. as a pup, he was very close to another set of pups in his pack. Two she-pup's slightly older than him who his mother would watch over often. Fluorite and Quartz were his his best friends, his world. Then his happy little world was shattered when their pack was raided by three others. One moment she was playing happily with the two cubs closest to him under his mothers watchful gaze, and the next he was being stollen. Carried away by wolves he didn't know after watching his mothers throat be ripped out, his best friends snatched and being carried the opposite direction.

It was days before he was able to find some way to escape. They made the mistake of setting him down where he was able to dart into a crevasse in the mountain caves. Unable to reach him, they eventually gave up and left him for dead. A pup without a pack wouldn't last long on its own. When they were gone, he left his hiding spot and made his way aimlessly down the mountains.

Half starved, he scented a mouse nest somewhere close. Trying to catch the mice, he didn't notice the fox den he'd gotten just a little too close to. The fox, seeing Rhodri as both a threat and an easy meal, went on the attack. He had dodged a few of its well aimed bites, but it eventually pinned him. Right when he thought this was the end, the fox was gone. There was a yelp and a crack. When Rhodri opened his eyes, he found a she-wolf standing over him. She was trying to make sure he was okay, suggesting they try to find his pack. Having no other hope of surviving, he agreed and stuck close to her.

The two became inseparable. He learned her name was Feige, that she was a Pregnant runaway looking for a better home for the pup's she was carrying. Innocently, he offered his home to her. It was the least he could do, she had saved his life. It was weeks before they found his home, or what was left of it. No one was there, no living wolf to speak of. Once again, he was hopelessly lost in the world. Feige curled around him, comforting him. At least now he wasn't alone. They decided to move on from here, taking care of eachother and searching for somewhere safe that they could call home. That was when they wandered into the alpha of The Crimson Order.

Rue had found Feige and Rhodri together at the eastern border of Crimson Order Territory. Rue didn't have the heart to turn them away, so she lead them back to the pack, offering Feige a space in her own birthing den where she and faarax could easily help her through the first stages of motherhood. Rhodri was offered space with the other adolescents, but he declined. These wolves had been kind to them, but he wasn't yet sure if they could be trusted. He opted to stay just outside the den Rue and Farrax were sharing with Feige, wanting to make sure the she-wolf he knew he could trust was well cared for.

With some convincing, He did eventually become at ease with the other members of the pack. He did still stay close to Feige, especially after she had her pups. He got to help name them, and with his help they became Aren, Adina, and Auils. He stayed close, helping with the pups as much as they would let him. Weeks later, their new pack made contact with another pack. in the migrating pack, two faces were familiar. Fluorite and Quartz. Their reunion was bitter sweet. He wanted to be with them, but he didnt want to leave his friend Feige and her pup's. Eventually, with Feige's encouragement and the two alpha's agreements to let him go back and forth between their packs. He wouldn't have to choose between the wolves he cared for.
