I hang on every breath you take...
You dont need me...

Hylvetica's little heart raced as she pushed her short brown legs faster and faster. She spotted a small groupd of dogs gathered near the water and sped up more. She turned to see if the human was still chasing her. It was. She let out a soft yelp and turned her head back to look at the dogs, running samck-dab into a Doberman. She fell back onto her haunches, her eyes worried and darting between Killer and the human in pursuit of her. She lifted a paw to cover her eyes in embarassment. "Sorry mister." she said, moving her paw a bit to look at him.

Like I need
you.

⇒Killer⇐
Use me as you will, pull my strings just for a thrill.
I know I'll be okay even though my skies are turning grey.

Killer felt the puppy ran into his back leg and his eyes darted down. "Sorry? Sorry for what?" Killer followed her gaze up to a Human charging after her and something.. strange happened to Killer. To anyone that could see what he was thinking, would see many pictures of himself as a puppy and the awful treatment he'd received from Humans. He saw that scar on his tongue, he scar across his mind, the reasons behind his crazed tail chases and Killer gained his sanity for a few seconds. Long enough, that is to step over and in front of the puppy. He snarled with a serious viciousness, that left his left attempt at anger in the dust. His frame was tall and filled to the brim with anger as he watched this Human grow closer. He made sure his posture was perfect and his ears were pressed to his skull. When Killer was fully looked over, he looked rather.. scary.

The Human saw this and grew a little frightened. Sure enough, he was trained in the way of animals, but dealing with three fully grown dogs just for one puppy? Yea, go ahead and get your face torn off. So, taking up his wit, he turned tail and ran away from the group. Killer then turned, his snarl and anger gone as he looked at the puppy. He grinned happily, his tongue lolling from his mouth, "What about you? Do you know about the sand-eater?"

Hylvetica breathed an enormous sigh of relief as the human ran. She looked back at its retreat, then looked at Killer. "sorry for runnin into you." she replied, standing back up. She shook her fur loose and sniffled a bit. Her head tilted to the side in an adorable manner. "Sandeater?" she asked, glancing at the gently rolling waves behind Killer, "You mean the water?" she glanced around the beach nervously before looking from Cookie to Sasha, then back to Killer.

Like I need

{ I think I might get rid of Izoku and make a new character. Is that alright guys? I need to start over. }

[Teacup-old]

{Yup. I don't think even a wolf could reach 50 inches at the shoulder...}

[ossa di cervo]

((Anything is fine with me. I would make a little dachshund but everyone's all involved with someone else already. xD ..Unless someone isn't? Well, better stated: Is anyone's character alone?))

[Shiko Hayashi]

{Yup. I don't think even a wolf could reach 50 inches at the shoulder...}

{ Umm...... Not sure where that came from. Is that from Izoku's form? He's not all wolf. He's also slightly larger than a normal wolf because of his other species. Plus, I went from ear tip to paw pad. }

[Teacup-old]

[Zmija- Cookie probably wouldn't mind if it meant she could have a little partner with the brains she doesn't have. xD
Wolf-chan - I'm just saying. Either way, I personally wouldn't mind if you made a different character.}

||| Doli |||

...Tell Me What'cha Think You're Lookin' At...

Doli watched the two begin to chat and growled quietly; obviously, they weren't going to leave, and she didn't want to be stranded on the rocks. Standing, she kept her eyes on the pair, staying silent as she picked her way across the rocks. Jumping, she landed quietly on the sand, glancing back at the pair of dogs. "Good ridance," She muttered, and she padded away.

Doli was typically safe on the beach: she was groomed well enough, and she had a collar, so people simply believed she was someone's dog running around off-leash. She peered around and noticed no dogs watching, then she looked to the water. It beckoned to her, the sun reflecting off its ruffled waves. She began to run toward the water's edge, stomach close to the ground as she stretched out in large strides. As she hit the water, she slowed and began to swim, knowing there was a sandbar out a bit further. Toes just touching the soft sand, she hop-paddled forward, head above the water as she smiled wildly. There was only one thing she loved more than herself: the beach.

...So I Think I'm Queen Elizabeth...

This is the best picture I can find. It's the closest to the description that I gave you.
Display Colour- color=#004040
Name- Ryokō
Pronounced- rE-O-ko
Alias- Ryo
Pronounced- rE-O
Gender- Male.
Age- 4yo
Birth date- January 1st, 12:00pm
Species- Dog.
Breed- German Shepherd Wolfdog Hybrid
Purebred- No
Height- 34 inches
Weight- 98lbs
Build- Ryo is rather large in size, due to his wolf heritage. His paws are also rather large, due to malnourishment when he was a pup. His tail is slightly slimmer than a wolf's, but bulkier than a german shepherds. His ears are slightly larger than a normal dog's and his body is a bit skinnier, or slimmer due to his german shepherd heritage.
Coat- His coat is soft, with a thin layer of course hair covering a softer fur. His fur length is about 4 cm in length, thickening as it reaches the third outer layer, which as said before, is slightly courser than the two lower layers. He has dark gray fur that blends into a light beige around his face. His muzzle is half the dark gray that has two patches of a soft red on each side of his nose. The other half of his muzzle is the same light beige as his belly, which stops at the base of his tail. His legs are the same light beige in the back, but an even darker gray on the front, becoming a slightly rosy red at his toes. His back has a ruff, or his crest, of reddish orange that blends into the dark gray of his belt and reappears at the middle of his tail, which turns into black as it reaches the tip, giving it an appearance that looks as if he dipped it in ink. His eyes brows are an even lighter beige that borders on white with a hint of red to it. Going from his cornea are two small black lines that connect to the edges of his nose. Their faint, and hardly visible. He has two darker patches of grey on his shoulders and hips.
Head- His muzzle is long, but slightly blunt at the tip of his mouth and nose. It's slender, but slightly thicker than a normal shepherd's muzzle. His ears are up and have a light white tan fur inside them.
Eyes- His eyes are a quick fire silver with slivers of gold in his iris. Their wolf-like in all appearance.
Scars- He has a few scars across his throat that criss cross back and forth, like a wire netting. All four paws have small scars up to his ankles.
Speed- Above Average.
Stamina- High.
Strength- Average.
Fighting- Average.
Strengths- Ryo's size is an advantage in certain areas, such as fighting. His thicker hair allows him greater warmth. His thick paw pads allow him to travel for intense periods of time. He also has an infinite patient and a swift mind that can easily work under pressure. You could say that he has almost unearthly deduction skills.
Weaknesses- Although he has great stamina, his fighting skills are not as good as a normal dog and sometimes hinders him in a fight. His voice is also raspier when speaking, due to the injury to his throat. He has to be careful in fights as well, because the scars on his throat make it easier to cut at it. They provide softer flesh.
Personality- Ryo is quiet and indifferent. He could care less about the people around him. he only bothers to get involved with them when they do something that directly threatens his survival. He's territorial and can get aggressive if he's threatened or if the person, dog, threatening him doesn't get the message the first time. Despite his cold out appearance, Ryo's mind is rather complex.
It works slightly faster than the average rate, giving him amazing deductive skills. Not to mention that he's skilled at survival. He's not afraid to kill if that means surviving. It's hard to befriend him, as he's learned to trust only himself. If you do manage to as well, his personality shifts slightly. He's a bit more kind than he appeared and he he's extremely loyal. He might not know the word's give up, but if it means saving a life, he'll go quietly.
He's in no way brave or courageous, but he understands most and doesn't offer sympathy and comfort, knowing their lies. He'll tell the truth bluntly and offer nothing else. But sometimes, that's for the best.
Fears- Ryo is not particularly fearful of much, but he is wary of many things. He is wary of packs, always skirting around them or dodging back and forth to steal from their kills. He does have a deep seated fear though of drowning. Water itself doesn't fear him, but death by water does. Raised on the a few wolf belief's, he believes that if you die beneath the water, your soul will never find the sky.
Family- His father was a German Shepherd and his mother was a wolf, making his dominant gene wolf. He was born with a twin brother who looks exactly like him, minus the scars. Their parents died though when a particular nasty year occurred where food was even harder to find. He and his twin brother survive because of their strong noses and excellent hearing, but his brother was struck with a strange disease that caused him to bleed internally in his lungs. He died shortly after he and Ryo turned 2.
History- Ryo was born at midnight on the first day of the year to a wolf mother and a german shepherd father. His twin brother followed only 2 minutes after him. They stayed with their mother for 6 weeks before roaming farther away from them. One day, when Ryo had turned 12 weeks when he was caught in a human's fence. It was made of barbed wire and tangled around his paws and ankles, scarring them badly. When his mother and father arrived, his twin brother having fetched them, his father sacrificed his tongue to gnaw the wiring off his son's paws. When he was free, his mother carried him, despite his weight and size. It took only a few more weeks before he was finally able to walk again, with only minor pain. The small family traveled together for over a year before their parents died from starvation. Left alone in the world, the two 1 year olds set off into the world, traveling and surviving. When Ryo was nearing the date of his birth though, his twin began to cough. At first, it was only small coughs. But finally, he began to cough up blood. A year later, shortly after Ryo turned 2, his twin brother died, drowning internally from his own blood. Left alone once more, Ryo set off again, silently mourning the loss of his closest friend and brother. When Ryo turned 3, he got into a nasty fight with a few other stray dogs. they cornered him and managed to slash open his throat. Before they could kill him though, Ryo retreated into the night, desperate. He nearly died from the loss of blood, lack of water, and the lack of food. But with a strong will, Ryo managed to survive on smaller mammals and what little water he could find. His wounds healed, though messily, and he was left with the scars on his throat. He gained no satisfaction in them, but in the thought that he had managed to kill the one that had done them. He never saw the other two again. He continued to travel, this time hunting slightly bigger food and whatever happened to stumble across his path. Be it rat or dog. He was 3 1/2 when he killed and ate his first human. It had been weak and on the brink of death, so he had gained an easy meal. Hidden among the rooftops, he devoured his meal. It was only a few months later that he turned 4. He continues to travel, wandering around with no goal and no immediate direction.
