Lowry Lykoi
Lowry was a member of Cercatori d'Arte; he was both high-ranking in the Stage ranks and a member of the mysterious Trader's Guild.
He was born in a pack ruled by his father, Kerberos Lykoi, and driven out as a yearling. Not wanting to follow his Lykoi family legacy, he avoided Inferni and joined Casa di Cavalieri, only to decide the pack was not for him and joining d'Arte instead. In the summer of 2013, he infiltrated AniWaya as a spy for the Trader's Guild.
In February 2014, Lowry was killed by Judas Poer de Aika XIII, who strung up his body on Cercatori d'Arte's border tree in a macabre display.

1. Appearance
Lowry is a scrawny coyote hybrid with straw-colored fur. He has ginger accents and yellow eyes. His hair is usually spiked with beeswax, and he often wears an overlarge belt with a sheath for his knife.
1.1 Build and Species
Lowry is a skinny, scrawny runt. He is very small and looks malnourished most of the time, his ribs usually easily felt if one runs their hands along his sides. His hip bones, too, jut out -- especially in his bipedal form, which is short by really any standards.
His physical characteristics do little to suggest that he's a hybrid. Instead, he has the standard coyote build: small, big-eared, and bushy-tailed. His muzzle, however, does not seem to taper as much as the average coyote's; his entire head is less angular and might even seem wolfish, if his two giant ears didn't perch on top of it.
1.2 Coloration
Lowry has Straw (#D4B886) fur with a Stark White (#EBDDC8) underside, including washing up his legs and around his Golden Sand (#F2D971) eyes. The Lykoi red is a soft, subtle Twine (#C07C51) on his ears, muzzle stripe, and splashed across his back. A slightly darker Potters Clay (#925938) is also mottled into the colors of his back, streaked with Milbrook (#574731), which also tips his tail.

2. Personality
In a word, Lowry is fidgety. He can never keep still, his train of thought jumps from place to place, and he generally seems flighty and hyperactive when spoken to. He is friendly and well-meant, however, and often passionate in his pursuit of good -- even if his thought on "law" and black-and-white has slackened. He can be petty and silly or jealous, but most of the time he treats others warmly and can be very chivalrous to those in need.
The young male is affected by two mental disorders, however -- depression and generalized anxiety. His anxiety is prominent in his nervous mannerisms and his general jumpiness, but it runs deep in his greater thoughts. His imagination, which is normally a positive trait, gets out of hand here. He's always expecting the worst and stressing over it, or otherwise blowing things out of proportion. His depression, meanwhile, is less obvious -- but self-deprecating thoughts run constantly through his mind, and while during his "normal" periods he has them under control, at times everything crashes down on him and overwhelms him.
Lowry is a canine who very much wants to be the hero of his own story, but his self-doubts hold him back from that.

6. History
6.1 Pre-'Souls
Lowry and his siblings were born in the deep snows of November, but the family was protected in the warmth of the den, and all the pups were raised with loving care for as long as things went smoothly. Kerberos Lykoi and Valla never let the puppies out of their sight, and as they grew older, they tried to instill a deep fear of the unknown within them. Instead of blindly accepting the danger, however, Lowry became fascinated with the stories, from the start wanting to jump out and do battle with the evils of the world instead of fear it.
The family was part of a band of coyote hybrids, which Kerberos, lead. But in the first few months of their lives, the hierarchy began to shift, and Valla took control even more so than their father. This shift caused a rift between mother and father, and though both loved their children unconditionally, they began trying to turn their children against each other.
Eventually, it ended with the children fighting each other, and then eventually, the parents turning on each other, ending in the death of Valla. Seeing the children and as nothing more than a nuisance, the rest of the clan drove them off, and they scattered to the four winds. With his rank defunct and hierarchy taken, Kerberos left, his place unknown to the siblings.
Lowry was glad to tackle the great unknown and simply get away from his parents' violence, and so he roamed as far and fast as he could to seek a new home for himself.
6.2 2012
- November: Lowry reaches Nova Scotia. His first stop is Inferni, but is put off by the skulls and the apparent violence Inferni often sees, and so he decides that the clan is not for him. He also reunites with his sister, Elody Lykoi, but decides to travel alone until he catches wind of a great pack called Casa di Cavalieri. He soon joins.
- December: Lowry finds it hard to adjust to the great pack. He spends most of his time with Wayne McCoy (despite claiming to dislike the man) and forms a bond with his colt, Bark. Wayne tries to convince him to get more involved with the pack, but Lowry is afraid of ridicule as he meets his comrades. He starts to get antsy and distant.

6.3 2013
- January:
- There is an incident outside of Casa di Cavalieri; a bear kills a girl, while Lowry freezes up. Lowry cannot cope with what happened, and tells Wayne that he isn't good enough for the pack. Wayne gently supports him in his desire to leave, and gifts him the colt, Bark.
- Lowry spends some time as a loner, wandering Seabreeze Brink, before joining Cercatori d'Arte.
- Lowry is assaulted by Machidael Lykoi after being charmed by him; Wayne saves him.
- February: Lowry falls into a state of depression after his assault, and spends a lot of time alone. He eventually begins to cheer up though he remains melancholy for many weeks.
- March: Lowry is cheered by news that Cercatori d'Arte is opening up its borders. He socializes with his pack mates and some outsiders, and also visits AniWaya to play in a stickball game.
- April: Nothing of note happens.
- May: Lowry is attacked for information by Wraith Creed, and has a small emotional breakdown about how he's worthless and not cut out for anything. He focuses on doing things around Cercatori d'Arte instead, even if his restless wanderings bring him away from the pack on occasion.
- June: During the pack's Festival of Colors, Lowry decides to approach leader Skye Collins for information on the Trader's Guild -- an organization within d'Arte that isn't as innocuous as it seems. He is given the task of infiltrating AniWaya and discovering their secrets, if any.
- July: After a lot of anxious preparation, Lowry joins AniWaya as Fiver the coyote. He learns a lot of the Tribe's language and culture, and stays longer than expected after accidentally unearthing a body in Tribe lands! He also finds a piglet, Hen Wen, who becomes his companion.
- August: Before Lowry can decide to go back to Cercatori d'Arte, he falls ill with a strange disease.
- September: Lowry leaves AniWaya, weak from illness and in a deep depression. He attempts suicide, but is rescued by a strange young loner named Penny?, who makes him go back to Cercatori d'Arte. He makes his report to Skye and tries to integrate himself back into pack life.
