Crypton is a quiet, gentle soul. He keeps to himself most of the time, rarely socializing with anyone
unless they force him to. Unfortunately, very few RPWs want to socialize with him. Most seem
to find his appearance intimidating, especially those huge fangs that protrude from his mouth. Due
to those fangs, he talks with a very obvious lisp. This is the one reason that he refuses to speak
unless spoken to. He finds it embarrassing, and he hates it.
When he does talk, he is a very honest RPW. He will always tell you exactly what he is thinking,
whether you like it or not. Sometimes he does offend people, and he immediately apologizes,
but it doesn't stop him from being just as honest the next time someone asks him for an
opinion.
Crypton works well under pressure. He is able to keep a level head even when the situation is
dire. He also has an almost infinite level of patience, and it is very hard to upset him. He would
make a great teacher, but at this point in his life he is unwilling to take an apprentice.
His is extremely artistic, and no two pieces of his glass work are the same. In fact, he has a
hard time replicating pieces. His work is often highly praised by critics, and some of his
pieces have sold for thousands of dollars. Very rarely does he struggle to make enough
money to feed himself.
When he needs to be, he is very secretive. Nothing anyone does can make him reveal
anything that he wants nobody to know. Other RPWs often confide in him when they
have something they don't want anyone to know.
You do not want to disturb this RPW when he is working, as that is the only time you will
truly see him get angry. Once enraged, it is impossible to calm him down. The only way
to get him to stop is to leave, and then he calms himself down. He usually does this by
creating art work, and some of his best pieces are created when he is upset.

ʜɪsᴛoʀʏ //
Crypton was born in the era of Dire Wolves, all those millenia ago. Of course, nobody knows this;
it is one of the many secrets he keeps from people. At that time, magic was prevalent throughout
the land, both good and evil. Crypton was no exception. From a young age, it was clear that
he showed talent as a fire mage. He could cast fires with a wave of his paw, and put them
out just as fast. This fire magic would be both his saving grace, and his demise.
As a teen, Crypton was reckless and full of the bravery of youth. With his fire at his side, the
young RPW felt unstoppable. He had become known as something of a nuisance in his village,
but he took full advantage of being an outcast. There was no-one to keep an eye on him, and
no one to keep him out of trouble. It was the perfect storm.
As he grew older, his fire became both more powerful and more dangerous. It was rumoured
that he was the cause of many forest fires, although none of this was ever proved (and he
never admitted anything). When he was 17 years old, a sudden forest fire suddenly sprang
up in the forest around his own village. This one was beyond Crypton's control, and he
realized it immediately. It was spreading quickly and threatened to burn the village down
if nobody stepped in. Crypton ran back to the village. He had to warn them, had to get
them to leave. At first they didn't listen, but when they felt the heat of the flames, they
panicked. They tried to flee the village, but in the chaos they became trapped.
It was at this point that Crypton stood before the flames. He realized the destruction
he had caused and the danger he had brought upon all of these wolves. His regret was
so strong that tears flowed down his cheeks. He took a step towards the flames.
The light of the flames was reflected in his eyes, and he could feel his hair starting
to singe. But he did not back down. With a wave of his paw, he parted the flames of
the forest fire and stepped inside. He was engulfed, and the pain threatened to
bring him to his knees, but he knew he had to stop this. Summoning all of his strength,
he cast a spell to drive back the flames. There was a bright flash, brighter than any light
he had ever witnessed, and then suddenly, there was nothing.

-----

When Crypton awoke, he did not recognize the scents around him. Confused, he opened
his eyes. All was black. Carefully, he reached out with one paw and felt around in front of
him. He felt rock all around him. He waved his paw, igniting a flame. He pushed the flame
into the rock, and felt it begin to melt. Increasing the heat of the flame, he was able to melt
a hole in the rock that was large enough for him to fit through.
He stepped out of the rock, brushing dirt and debris from his shoulders. He looked around, but
recognized nothing. He took a few steps before he looked back at the rock he had been encased
in. It was black, and reminded him of the black glass that was found inside volcanoes. He guessed
that he must have been encased in there when he stopped the fire. Odd.
The forest he had been in was mostly gone. Whether it had been burnt down or cut down, he could
not be sure. He padded through it, taking in all of the sights. There was an awful smell in the air,
like the burning of tar (he would later discover that this came from cars. He loathes the smell to
this day, and cycles everywhere.) He walked towards it, and found himself surrounded by strange
buildings and wolves.
He wondered where he should head, and eventually found himself inside a store. It was filled
with decorative pieces of glass, mostly animals. He studied each piece for a long time, until
he felt someone behind him.
"Impressed, are you?"
Crypton turned around, startled by the voice. He found himself unable to speak, so simply
nodded. The strange wolf glanced down at Crypton's fangs, then met his gaze again.
"You're an odd one, aren't you?" he asked, but Crypton did not reply. The strange wolf
smiled. "Come with me."
He led Crypton to the back of the store. There were shelves of books there, more than Crypton
could count. The wolf picked one off of a shelf, opened it, flicked through some of the pages,
then showed it to Crypton. He had one finger placed on a picture that was drawn. Looking at
it, Crypton could tell that the wolves drawn there were Dire Wolves like him. For the first
time, he spoke.
"In a book? But...why?" he asked. The other wolf shook his head.
"It has been thirty thousand years since the last Dire Wolf was seen." he stated simply.

-----

"Turn it more, turn it more. There you go." Crypton struggled with the pole, trying desperately
to keep the glass in a circular shape. His mentor Mikael was stood behind him, guiding him
through the process of molding glass. In Crypton's eyes, it was not going well.
He pulled the vase out of the furnace, and Mikael must have seen the disappointed look on his
face. He gave Crypton a reassuring smile.
"Don't worry, you're getting better. Maybe you'll be better than me some day."

Crypton's occupation (and first love) is glass blowing. It is his main source of income, but is also
something that he thoroughly enjoys. When he is molding his glass, he falls into a trance-like
state, and no-one must disturb him during this time.
He specializes in decorative pieces, such as vases or animals. His prices can be high, but they
are always worth the amount of work he puts into them. He also does custom pieces. They can
get quite pricey, however, as he charges by the hour.
Very rarely, he will do pieces for charities or fund-raisers. These he usually auctions off, and
they can fetch a pretty penny. At one charity auction, he raised $10,000 with a single piece;
a glass horse.
For the right price, he does shows and demonstrations. He doesn't speak much, and just lets
his movements and the glass do the talking. These demonstrations are very successful, and
he has inspired many RPWs to take part in this difficult art.

Crypton's biggest secret is his abilities as a fire mage. He has learned to control it now,
so that it will never harm anyone again. However, he very rarely uses it, even in his work. Only
when a furnace refuses to light does he wave his paw to summon a flame.
In the past, it would flare up when he was upset. His eyes would glow with rage, and his paws
would glow with flame. He was a formidable sight, and scared a few wolves out of his
workshop. He's not proud of that.

Glass blowing can be dangerous work, everyone knows that. When he first started working with glass
arts, Crypton didn't feel that he needed to wear any kind of safety equipment, a decision that
would bite him in the butt years later.
He was making a vase for a friend, turning it round in the furnace to get the shape and size,
when all of a sudden it exploded. Glass shards and bright light filled the air, and because he
wasn't wearing any protective eye wear, Crypton was temporarily blinded. He covered his
face with one arm and jumped backwards, but by then it was too late. He suffered
irreparable damage to his left eye, causing him to need to wear glasses when he works
or reads.
