My first ever character, Raid. <3 Had him for over 12 years, but never made him into an anthro character.


He's a part time body guard, normally hired by the mob to keep persons of interest alive. In his free time, he crafts custom weapons, specializing in blades/concealed weapons, though occasionally moving to gun work.

Name: Raid
Age: 44
Gender: male
Species: wolf
Eye Color: navy
Height: 6'0"
Occupation: body guard/weaponsmith, specializing in bladed


Personality:
Raid is a quiet storm—stoic, composed, and seemingly unshakable. He speaks with purpose, preferring silence over wasted words, but when he does speak, his words carry weight. He is deeply loyal once trust is earned, and he holds personal honor in high regard. Underneath his intimidating exterior lies a subtle sense of humor and a strong protective instinct.

Though rough-edged, Raid is incredibly perceptive. He reads people quickly and adjusts accordingly—an asset in both battle and social tension. He has little tolerance for arrogance, recklessness, or needless cruelty. His work requires a moral code, and while not soft, he avoids unnecessary violence.

Likes:
Forging and customizing blades (each one is personal, often engraved or marked)
The smell of gun oil and fresh leather
Early mornings, when the world is still and cool
Strategy games or chess—he enjoys thinking three steps ahead
Old jazz or lo-fi music while working in his forge
Quiet companionship—he's not a loner by nature, just selective


Dislikes:
Being micromanaged or ordered around without respect
Fragile weapons or showpieces that value aesthetics over function
Crowded, noisy places—too many variables
Betrayal (personal or professional—it cuts deep)
Cold forges and idle hands; he needs to stay busy




really helped me bring him to life, and I can't thank them enough! He turned out better than I could imagine. Seriously, he is just perfect.

Raid is mine,
