History: Ghost's history really began even before he was conceived. In truth, it began when the humans were still present in Anikira ten years ago at which point his grandparents were alive.
It was the spring of 1998 when Greywind and Nymeria were born on the island Tas'alea where most of the other extinct breeds of wolves lived. The two of them were from separate litters from the same pack that went by the name of Drogon. Nymeria was one of the daughters of two of the hunters of the pack and Greywind was the son of two of the warriors of the pack. The two grew up together and became fast friends. By the time they were one, they were starting to fall for each other and had made plans to mate the following year.
One day during the summer of 2000, the couple was wondering outside the pack's lands and they ended up being at the wrong place at the wrong time. As the last of the remaining humans were preparing to leave the lands of Anikira, they spotted the two wolves and proceeded to try and capture them. Even though Greywind and Nymeria put up a good fight, the humans ended up winning in the end.
Once the two wolves were captured, they were loaded onto a small ship. The voyage took a couple of days but they eventually arrived at a port right on the coast of Africa. From there, they traveled to their final destination in a vehicle. Upon arrival into what was their new home, the two wolves noticed that they were being brought to a secluded area in the middle of nowhere. In the center of the area was a large pit and currently two other wolves were fighting against each other in the pit.
After Greywind and Nymeria were unloaded from the vehicle, they were brought inside a small building which was lined with numerous kennels on each side. As soon as the door opened, they could hear the cries and snarls coming from the kennels in all different directions. The two wolves were then transferred from their cage into a kennel that was just big enough to fit the two of them. Once they were locked securely inside their kennel, the people left the building, finally allowing Greywind and Nymeria to get a grasp on what all had happened. They had been taken by these humans and brought to what looked like to be brawling grounds where wolves were made to fight other wolves against their will, just like the two the say upon arriving to the area. From that day on Greywind and Nymeria’s life changed forever.
The next day one of the humans came and put a shackle looking thing around Nymeria’s neck and dragged him out of their kennel with the chain that was attached to it. Greywind was taken to start his training and Nymeria thought that that would be the every saw him for he was going to be relocated to a building that was specifically for the fighting wolves and this ended up being the couple’s life for the next two years.
In 2002, the two love birds were allowed to saw each other again. Greywind had proven to be a true fighter and the human decided that is was time for him to mate with Nymeria. When they were introduced, Nymeria almost didn’t recognize Greywind anymore for he was covered with scars and on top of that, his whole demeanor had changed for he was now an aggressive being. Greywind was no longer the brute that Nymeria had fallen in love with and she wanted nothing to do with him, but Greywind raped her. After he finished his job, he was taken back to the other building, leaving Nymeria emotionally broken.
A couple months later, the humans realized that Nymeria wasn’t gaining any weight, so they had their personal vet come and look at her. To the human’s dismay, Nymeria had failed to conceive so they decided they would try again the following spring. Nymeria was taken back to her kennel where she was to stay until the following spring.
After another failed attempt in the spring of 2003, the spring of 2004 was Nymeria’s last chance to produce offspring. Thankfully for the humans, Nymeria was able to conceive and gave birth to a liter of four a little over sixty days later. The litter consisted of an even two boys and two girls. The boys were named Aerys and Renly and the females were named Summer and Shae. Sadly, all the pups died a couple weeks after birth except for Aerys.
For the first six months of Aerys’s life, he stayed with his mother so that she could nurse him and take care of his vulnerable self. But by the time he was six months of age, he was weaned from his mother and was able to survive without her , so he was taken to the building that all the brutes resided in and was put in a small kennel where he was to spend the whole day for each day until he was old enough to begin his training.
In 2005 not too long after Aerys had turned one year of age, he was deemed ready to begin his training. He spent a great portion of each day sparring off with other males of his age. It wasn’t anything like the fighting the adults did, but it was the beginning stages of his training and after a little progression, he was reunited with his father so that he could train Aerys.
Aerys was finally ready to fight in the pit in the fall of 2006. He was now two years old and had matured into a nicely built male. Despite his well-defined body from his early training, he was still weaker compared to the other males he had trained with. He was quite the embarrassment and got laughed at by the other males. One day he was sparred against his father, and his father kicked his ass and then went on to tell Aerys how disappointed he was in him. That encounter with his father made him realize that he needed to train harder because he wanted to be strong like his father so that he wouldn’t disappoint him.
Aerys’s progress was slow and it wasn’t until 2008 that he had proven himself a worthy fighter. Sadly, Greywind didn’t get to see this since he died in 2007 as a result of injuries from one of his fights getting as did Nymeria from old age. But now that Aerys was deemed a worthy fighter and was now able to mate with a selected female, it didn’t happen since there was an abnormal shortage of wolves during that time.
Finally during the winter of 2011, Aerys was able to meet with a female that the humans had selected that was named Sansa. Just a couple weeks after the mating took place, Aerys died suddenly from what was thought to be from an infection, almost like what had killed his father. And inn the spring of 2012 is when Ghost came to be. Along with Ghost, Sansa had given birth to three puppies which included one girl and two boys. The girl was named Melisandre and the boys were named Ghost and Loras.
It was now the year 2013 and this year marked Ghost and his sibling’s first birthday, and it also marked the beginning of Ghost and his brother’s training just like their uncles had done. His brother was excited about the training, but Ghost on the other hand was not. His mother had told them stories of what she had heard about how the fighting turned the brutes into viscous monsters, but Ghost was the only one to believe her and he wanted nothing to do with it. However, blank told him that he must go along with it or he would get killed. Blank also made him promise that he would remember who he was so that he wouldn’t turn hostile like his dad had been. So for the next year, Ghost and his brother were trained to be fighters.
The summer of 2014 was when the brawling area met its demise. Ghost and his siblings were now two years old and one day the brawling area got shut down after local officials had got wind of it. All the people that worked the place were then arrested and taken to prison. The wolves on the other hand were taken in groups to be relocated elsewhere. With all the chaos going on, Ghost got separated from his brother and was put on a small ship that was bound for Europe with a random group of wolves. The voyage was supposed to take several days but on the first day of the voyage, tragedy stroke when the ship hit a bad storm. The small ship was no match for the monstrous waves and it overturned, throwing all the passengers in the ship into the water. Ghost started to swim back towards the direction that he thought the ship had come from, but instead he ended up on the lands of his grandparent’s birthplace, Anikira.
Personality: Dire wolves are known to be hostile individuals in general. However, Ghost isn't like most Dire wolves and is instead relatively even tempered. Even though he is even tempered, he is rather socially awkward when he encounters other wolves. This is caused by his over exposure to little social interactions with others for most of his life. His social awkwardness causes him to be an introverted individual. However, his introverted nature will more than likely change once he has had a decent exposure to social interactions with other wolves. With that being said, that will allow him to be able to come out of his shell some, though he will never be able to fully come out of his shell.
It will take some time before be is able to befriend an individual but when he does, he pledges his loyalty to them. When he is around the ones that he has befriended, he will be more outgoing since he will feel at ease when around them.
When it comes to those that he holds dear to his heart, he is very protective over them. He tries his very best to ensure that no harm comes to them, but when harm does come to one of his loved ones, he will not rest until he takes care of whatever or whoever caused them harm.
Other than when someone causes harm to one of his loved ones, the only other way he is provoked is when he encounters a hostile wolf. In such a situation, he turns into the hostile wolf his was trained to be.
