Faolan

'''Faolan is a handson wolf. I wkant to marryyy him'''

Faolan is a silver/gray male wolf, with bright green eyes, one splayed paw with a spiral marking on it.

Lone Wolf:
Faolan is born to a silver she-wolf named, Morag. It is unknown who his siblings are, though Morag discribes them as tawny colored like their father, who too, is unknown. He is born as a malcadh, the ancient wolf word for "Cursed one" A few hours pass, and Shabaan appears. She is known as the Obea. Obeas take the malcadhs to be abandoned, to die. Though, other wise healthy, Faolan is to die. Shibaan places Faolan on a melting river-bed.

The ice melts, and makes Faolan open his eyes and ears. He struggles to grip the ice, because of his splayed paw. At that moment, a grizzly appears on the bank full of grief. Her cub was killed by cougars, when she looked to see if the river would flood. As she pleads with Great Ursus, the bear star, she asks that her life be ripped from her, and the river swallow her. Just at that moment, Faolan washes up onto shore, clinging to the grizzly. The grizzly tries to shake Foalan off, then she picks him up. The sun rose, and shined into Faolan's eyes. She thinks, 'I seek death, and it seeks life'. She thinks it's a sign from Great Ursus. She names the pup, Faolan. Fao' meaning river/wolf and Lan' meaning gift. She brings him back to her den, where he lives, and drinks her milk.

Faolan hears the heart beat of the grizzly. He names her Thunderheart, for her thunder like heart. Faolan grows up like a bear, learning their ways. When Faolan tries to dig for bulbs, he uses his other paw. Thunderheart tells him to use the splayed one. Faolan keeps on whining, saying no over & over again. Thunderheart corrects him, by slapping his face. Faolan does what he is told, with out speaking a word. Later on, Thunderheart kills a salmon, and drops it near Faolan. Faolan lays on his stomach, not touching the fish. Thunderheart takes a bite of the tail and gives the rest to Faolan. He eats it up, acting like a true wolf. The two pass a mother and her two cubs. The cubs laugh at Faolan, making the mother nervous. Faolan stands up for him-self, and scares the bears away, as if an invisable pack is surronding him.

Morag appears again, this time having a new litter of pups with an unknown male in the MacDonegal Clan. She travels out of the den to walk a bit. There, she scents Faolan, over-joyed, knowing her pup made it. She knew he had to made it, because, his spirt never reached the Great Lupus.

Faolan follows Thunderheart to the winter den. Noting, that a water-fall was nearby. The two-some find the winter den, and settle down. Thunderheart tells Faolan that she'll sleep, sleep for a long time. Faolan asks her about the Outermost. She replies, 'It's not for your kind", leaving Faolan shocked. She gives Faolan permission to hunt for him-self. After a while of hunting, less than a moon-cycle, Faolan decides to hunt. At that time, Thunderheart awakens. She goes to look for Faolan, not knowing he just left. She gets hit by a boulder and is killed.

Faolan comes back to the den to find Thunderheart gone. He thinks that she abandonded him. He goes to the outer most, thinking that Thunderheart went to hunt. He comes across the scent of a cougar. He follows it and kills the cougar. Then, two wolves appear, asking for food. Faolan throws a piece of meat into the air and attacks the wolves. One of the wolves kills the other and brings it back to the forest. Faolan is horrorfied when he hears the wolf eating his dead companion.

After some traviling, Faolan enters The Cave Before Time. There, he learns the history of the wolf packs, & Fengo. He sees art, moving and breathing. There, he sees his spiral mark on every wall.He stays at the cave for some long time, the returning to the Beyond. The McAngus chieftain found his pawmarks, which had a splayed paw. They thought he had the foaming mouth disease, that is very deadly and contagious. He warned the other clans and they hunt him down. They went to the Sark for her fire to kill Faolan. Faolan finds the skull of his Second Milk Giver's bones. He took Thunderheart's paw bone and carved the story of their only summer together. He then meets Gwyneth, a roguesmith, and she encouraged Faolan to pack to the McDuncans and he would be welcomed as a Gnaw Wolf. When he saw how the Gnaw Wolves were treated, he was a bit hesitant. The burgis of wolves came with the fire ready to kill him. He then jumped the wall of fire and the chieftain came to offer him the position of Gnaw Wolf.

Shadow Wolf
Faolan gets into the McDuncan clan. He is introduced to Heep a " Model" Gnaw Wolf. When the pack prepares to run a burgis, he meets Mharie, a she-wolf. When they hunt down the prey, Faolan was disapointted that Gnaw Wolves can't participate in a burgis. He sneaks out and ruins the whole burgis. He was put on trial and Duncan McDuncan told him about the Gaddnernaw games for the Ring of Sacred Volcanoes. He sees a Malcadh on the bridge abandoned by the obea. He goes to see the Sark and sees the mother of the Malcadh. He then goes on his trail of shame for breaking the clan rules and he meets Whistler, another Gnaw Wolf. T=
