Appearance: Raefer’s build could be described as the type associated with athletics, steam lined and muscular though not over muscled; this is due to his training as a swordsman (see history). His black hair is usually gelled up into a “messed up” style and he can be found wearing casual clothes most of the time, though does on occasion wear a long coat to conceal weapons when he carries them.

Personality: Raefer believes in many values, honesty, trust and honour. Through what he has learnt, he regards honour as being very important and will uphold his own at all times. He is quite patient, not quick to anger and is willing to help anyone, especially the vulnerable and those who are not as strong as himself. His sense of humour is occasionally dry and can be sarcastic. Cannot stand rude or arrogant people.

History: He was born and grew up in New York, the son of two cops who made sure their son got a good education, which he did. But throughout all this, he never really knew what to do with himself, only that he didn’t want to do what his parents did.

At thirteen his mother died, leaving his father to continue to raise him. When he left school, he still didn’t have any idea on what to do with him. He went from job to job, still drifting and this led to frequent arguments with his father.

When he was twenty, his father was shot on duty while trying to restrain a lycanthrope who was out of control; when the lycanthrope tried to attack his father, the other officer took a shot at it but unfortunately hit the cop. He died at the scene.

Scared of the very idea of lycanthrophy, Raefer went to the local hospital for the inoculation but was caught by a bad batch and was turned into the very thing he feared.

However after a few years for getting his head around it, he was able to accept who he had become and even got himself a mate, a female from the local NY pack who he then joined. After running with them for a while Raefer took the decision to move on Nothing had happened to make him leave, he just wanted to see the world.

He decided to go to Japan, the land of the rising sun, to become trained in martial arts as he had always liked the idea and thought he would be able to make something of himself if he had some skill.

He joined a pack there and was trained by them, not only in martial arts but in the art of sword fighting too. When the time came that the pack felt he was skilled enough to move on, he left Japan and travelled the world, helping fellow lycanthropes under the guise of a travelling musician.

He has now ended up in NO on his travels to help the needy.

Strengths: Can partially shift and calm the beast of others. He can heal quicker than most lycanthropes. Is highly proficient in the martial art of Kenjutsu (fighting with Katanas and other bladed weapons such as Sai) and also well trained in Taijutsu (Unarmed combat)

Weaknesses: Has a deep dislike of guns due to the fact his father was killed with one and because he believes their use to be dishonourable.Will frequently leap to the defence of others with little regard for his own safety.

Quirks: Has a borderline obsession with cleaning his weapons, sharpening and polishing them whenever he gets the chance. Is highly opinionated on the subject of music, likes rock music but hates genres such as dance. Is very possessive over his guitar and doesn’t like people touching it. Likes to drink malt whisky but only the high quality brands and is completely anti smoking.

Other: his wolf is like a husky, black and white with dark grey on the top of its head. He drives an Aston Martin DB9 V12, a rather extravagant recent purchase when he took a fancy to it at a motor show.
