Theme song:
- This guy will be renamed Mc Denzel. He looks like a tough guy with that tattoo, so i want him to have the name of a gentleman. You know, with a suit, a top hat, a walking cane, maybe even a monocule... He will never look like that, but I just think it's a funny combination.
No idea how I came up with it. I looked at him, and that name popped up. I name a lot of characters that way ^^
Nickname:
- Since not everyone wants to call him Mc Denzel some started to call him Ash. It's not sure why they do that. Some said it was because of the snoring sound he makes when he's asleep...
Gender:
- Mc Denzel is a male.
Species and/or specific breed:
- His breed is unknown, his species is a canine. He probably has wolf blood in his vains, and maybe even hyena.
Sexual orientation:
- He is straight, but doesn't mind others being bi or gay. As long as they don't bother him with it...
Theme song:
- John Farnham - You're the Voice
I choose this song for him because of his complicated personality and life story. He often felt alone and ignored in the past, this song is what kept nhim on his feet untill others learned to accept him.

Personality
- Mc Denzel is a daydreamer. Sometimes he doesn't even realize what is real and what isn't. He thinks he has done some pretty big things, like going to Mars, saving others from a fire, winning a motorcicle race... But obviously none of it is true. But he doesn't know he is not telling the truth: to him it is true. He doesn't have a split personality, he doesn't hallucinate... No one knows why he thinks it's all true.
But he doesn't always lie. In fact, there are days he doesn't lie at all. It seems like if he has a negative mood (sad, angry, scared, shy) it happens more than when he's in a positive mood (inventive, happy, playfull).
Mc Denzel doesn't like being the center of attention. He loves to talk and tell stories, but he's also afraid he'd tell things that didn't really happen. He wants to say he's honest, but he knows he isn't. That makes him sad, actually. He wants to be normal, but the stories and lies make him feel like he's diffrent. It sometimes make him feel uncomfortable.
His friends understand he can't help it, they don't really seem to blame him. In fact, they enjoy listening to his stories. Sometimes they try to stimulate him to tell more stories. He's an impressive story teller.
Most of the times he's happy, but everyone has moments when they are not. That also counts for mc Denzel. Sometimes he feels depressed.
He can wake up from having a nightmare. Once that happens he is grumpy and sad for the rest of the day. If he is, better let him be, don't get into his way. He'll come to you when he wants to have someone around.
Mc Denzel isn't very patient. When he has to wait for a while he will become a little restless: moving his head a lot, hopping from one leg to antoher, stepping left and right a lot. He needs something to do, even when he is just enjoying the sun. He hates boardgames, since you have to wait for other's turns and think a lot with some of the boardgames.
But he likes Twister. He's not very good at it, but he likes it. He's not a sore loser, having fun is much more inportant to him than winning. If you ever play with him: don't let him win. Let him work hard to win, let him deserve it. If you just let him win he'll get angry. He wants a fair game or no game at all.
Mc Denzel is social. He needs others around him, but sometimes he talks too much, which drives others crazy sometimes. Just tell him to calm down if he does, he is understanding enough not to get angry for it. In fact, it makes him happy if you tell him to calm down. It shows him you care enough to stick around with him.
He knows he is not the easiest one to hang out with and he tries to keep it in mind, but sometimes he needs a little help.
History
- Mc Denzel was born in a forest, close to a mountain. He had 2 brothers and 1 sister. Having 1 sister meant his parent used to spoil her a lot and leave the boys to hang out wih eachother. Often Mc Denzel felt a little jealous. He often got fights with his sister for that, and his parents always agreed with his sister.
He got so sick and tired of it that he left. He ran away from home, being only 9 dog years old. He walked through the forest for a few weeks, eating fish to survive. Not the best diet, but good enough to stay alive. He went higher and higher in the mountain.
Untill he was too tired to move on. He dropped himself on the ground, giving up on everything. He wasn't ready to survive on his own, he needed meat and no fish. He needed the help of others.
Just when he was about to close his eyes for a deep sleep - expecting never to wake up again - a female wolf found him. She went over to him, washing him and lying down next to him to keep him warm. He looked up at her with a thankfull look, then passed out.
She carried him home; a cave where she lived with her own children. She was the mother of 2 male pups and 2 females. They seemed worried about him, but she made sure they didn't get to close to him.
The mother wolf gave him some fresh meat, since she just caught a deer less than an hour ago. Mc Denzel thankfully ate it, then drank some fresh water. For the first time in his young life he felt happy and accepted.
One of the 2 girls, Sheila, was having a crush on him. They flirted with eachother for a while, untill they told eachother their true feelings. Mc Denzel was a strong adult canine now. They decided to move out of her mother's cave, going their own way together.
They found their own cave and soon she was pregnant. Mc Denzel was worried, would he be a good father? He was worried to make the same mistake as his own parents: spoil 1 pup and ignore the others. But Sheila was sure he wouldn't.
Untill a dark day arrived in Mc Denzel's life. His beloved Sheilah got sick. He had no idea what was going on, and there was no one around to ask for help. A few hours later she passed away...
Mc Denzel was very depressed. He never knew his children, he only had a few short years with Sheila... He was very depressed.
Somehow he told himself stories to keep his mind off his loss. Maybe that is why he can't decide what is real and what isn't. His stories became a part of him. Without his stories he feels like an empty body without a soul.
He remembered Sheila loved tribal artworks. So he decided to get himself a tattoo. A tattoo to honor Sheila, to let her still be close to him wherever he would go.
Luckily Ice Storm found him while she was exploring the mountains. She brought him back to her home, accepting him the way he had become. She knew he didn't always tell the truth. But did it matter? She had someone to talk to, someone who told her the best stories she ever heard! They became true best friends.
Maybe something more will grow between them than just a close friendship? Only time will tell...
