Rukami (Gulo Stantes) are a newly discovered species of bipedal mammals. Though they resemble wolves, they are actually more closely related to the mustelid family, which includes wolverines, otters, and badgers to name a few. Through natural selection, these rare animals evolved to incredible sizes and developed sentient brains along with opposable thumbs.

Second Rukami as a GA, proud of this one

Username: Annie Leonhardt
Rukami Name: Hato Terra
Gender: Male
How did it get it's scars?: This mysterious Rukami received his scars though necessary punishment and torture due to non-believers that did not believe in his teachings. He has gone many years with them and they have never bothered them. If anything, they show how truly strong he actually is.
History: On the edge of time and space between heaven and hell, above the domain of life and to the right of death itself sat a large white Rukami. She did not speak, she did not move, she did not even blink. This fae only sat on the edge of existence her eyes, orbs holding the galaxies themselves, trained on nothing. This remarkable, statue-like 'kami was none other than Drasna, the creator of the Rukami Universe. Said goddess was known around the living and feared around the dead, her beautiful appearance no mask to her true, radiating power. However...what had Drasna so...stiff? Was it something she foresaw? Or was it something she saw from the present? Oh yes...The white fae had seen something alright. She's seen the birth of her blood.

You may be wondering why this may be a problem or why her "blood" even exists if she is the highest deity? Well the reason it is so worrisome and existent is because it was for the Prophecy. That a son made up of her own ancient blood would be born to help restore the faith and beliefs in his one true mother and save the entire TC race, inevitably. Of course neither he nor his mortal parents were made aware or will even know until, when he is grown, the Blind Prophet Articles recites it to them himself.

Drasna was proud of her son already, knowing that he would not fail the same way as she new all about the future. She even knew his name to be. Hato Terra. A wonderful name, so thought the goddess on high.

Once years had passed from the faithful day of the Chosen One's birth, Hato had turned the proper age to live on his own. He so bid his goodbyes to his "mother" and "sire" respectfully as he should and there, once he turned, he met face to face with a old silver furred Rukami. Startled, Hato jumped slightly, not out of fright, but out of surprise. "Yes...Hello Articles. What brings you here, old tom?" He jokes slightly, but tone low and nonthreatening to be respectful.
The old tom blinked, his silver blue eyes clouded and unseeing. "I come here to speak of your destiny as your true mother's wish."
"True mother?" The younger tom replies in question. "But my true mother is right here."
Articles only flicked an ear. "Wrong," He says wisely, lifting his head as if addressing Drasna and the entire word itself. "[i]I, Articles, gaze upon the young 'kami brute to recite him the old words of wisdom passed down through every Prophet before I to give him the Word and the Truth for the sake of the 'kami race and for his destiny."

For a moment there was a pause in silence, each cat other than the Prophet shocked. What was going on? Before Hato could even question, Articles went on.
"You, Hato Terra, are the blood of the High Goddess, Drasna, and have been chosen to speak the truth of her word, cleanse the non-believers, and become her in flesh. You are to travel the expense of this Earth and tell everyone the news and preach of her word when her word has been long forgotten." Says he. "You cannot escape the destiny you have been chosen and it is now on you to restore the faith of humanity in Drasna and the faith of Drasna in humanity."

For a moment, Hato did not speak again, however clear it was Articles had stopped talking. "You mean..."

"You must, young one. It is fate's will."

At first he did not know what to think but...he knew what must be done. Taking a deep breath, Hato stood taller and raised his tail and nodded. "I will not try and flee this task. Let my true mother in Heaven above's will be done and that my physical parents pray for my safe keeping. I will head off now and begin to preach as I am destined to."

And so Hato did.
He was known as the Wandering Preacher and the Son of Drasna.
Fabled to be still living, hundreds of years after. However this stays exactly as it is worded, years wise..

This is Angoura, the last living water/ice bending Rukami. Her story begins in the life of Hato not long ago, you could say. Once when traveling, Hato himself had come to a forest, called to go there and cleanse the ailing souls in these parts upon a spiritual push. Of course, Hato followed the whim of his far-away mom and searched high and low for a Rukami that is said to be in these parts. For three days and three nights he searched but nothing he found to no avail. Therefore, Hato took a rest simply to say, at the river. There he found a blue Rukami sitting near the water's edge and staring down. At first Hato was thrilled to have found her, but then he could sense why he needed to in the first place. She was craving salvation, but had no idea who to go to. Hato walked forward and had known her, knowing her name to be Angoura, knowing she was one of her kind, knowing she was younger than most left with her responsibilities. She looked up at him, stiffening up slightly as she realized his presence was near now. "Is this your land?" She asks in a defeated tone.

"All is my mother's land," Hato had said. "But she gave it away for the life of all others."

Of course Angoura had heard of the Traveling Prophet, but she never believed she'd meet him as so many others had. It was as if he was sent to help her, so she thought.

In reality, she was right. Through countless talks, and a season of learning, Angoura began to follow him on his journeys as a disciple to Hato.

Might I just say, that story was quite beautiful. Your writing is incredible and really had me into it, also I fell in love with the adorable extras (art). Please take good care of Hato!

Thank you to all other contestants, this was quite a tough decision

You may call them scars but he calls them markings. These so called markings or "scars" as you call them were the way he was initiated into being a official Rukami. He had to travel out into the woods and kill a legendary beast by the name of Hordorix. It is a three tailed feline that is about... 7'2 in height and has a long slick frame. It is not a normal feline though, the reason he has all of his scars is because this feline has long sharp claws and saber fangs. It has fire tails and fire breath. So yes, this is how he got his "scars."

(Heh, hope you liked the short story)

How He Got His Scars: He was struck by lightning. And not just by chance, Jagged Peak is convinced it was because he was cursed to be struck; and by none other than Fluttering Bird.
