Drystan was born on the night of an eclispe, and hence was rumored to have strange powers. H was the only one in his litter, as his sisters were stillborn.
A week after his birth, the pack split up due to a strange bear attack blamed on him. His mother lost her life, father disappeared, and the rest of the pack, his older siblings, never returned to the den. He also lost eyesight in his left eye because of a cub who had tried it's best to fight but had been killed by his father who was protecting him. He wandered alone for about a year, hoping to reform his great family, but has been unsuccesful so far.
My new RP character, who is currently looking for a roleplay to join.
Forgot the pupil in his right eye on headshot, but I'm not in the mood to fix it.
Rushed coloring, and the timers still wrong. Ate dinner.
Well, his name means, and I quote:
DRYSTAN: Welsh Arthurian legend name of a Knight of the Round Table best remembered as the lover of Esyllt (French: Tristan and Iseult). But the earliest texts hint at a character who was far more than just a lover; he was a master of deception and had the ability to shape-shift, a definite attribute of a trickster. In the Cymric Trioedd, Esyllt is his uncle's wife; with the help of the swineherd, Drystan arranges for a secret tryst with her, but Arthur shows up unexpectedly wanting to steal some of his uncle's swine, and Drystan somehow outwits the Forever King.
The name has been associated with Latin tristis "sad," referring to the tragic fate of the young "lover." It has been linked with Pictish drust of unknown meaning, and Celtic drest, "riot, tumult." The latter comes closest to fitting his true character; compare with Old English þríst/þríste: "bold, daring, rash, audacious," and even "shameless."
