Obviously the Alpha wolf will be shared with the strongest dakarai aka The king. The further away from the royal bloodline you are the weaker the wolf spirit and magic. Most commoners second half of the spirit is dormant. If in dire need, the wolf half of the personality shall become more dominant and is often bloodthirsty and irratic

6. Dakarai means wolf when translated.

Now for the character details:
Dakarai
Shiah Dakarai princess and youngest child. There are a few pictures in my gallery for basic guidelines of what she looks like. Look for the Royal Portriate Image in my gallery for picture of her and her brothers.
Mirar Mirar is the current leader of the Dakarai and eldest child. He is tall and very broody with a bad temper.
Blaise is Mirars Identical twin and younger brother. Middle child. He is Mirars support and often trades places with him when he gets over loaded.
Mikala She is Shiahs best friend and loyal servent. Very loyal to the Dakarai and Despises the Shar. was kind enough to do an art trade with me and has done an amazing job designing her! There is a picture in my Journal or in her gallery.
Zadian Loyal soldier and friend of Shiahs he was recruited from the stables and given a chance at Shiahs request. Is currently Shiahs crush. There are no pictures or designs of him so do what ever you like!!
Sharr
Aidan He is the right hand man of Lumani and a street runner. He is very strong and very powerful. He can Maur on command and is very loyal to Lumani. Naimah was his partner and lover, after she caught him cheating she left and is now with Lumani. There is a picture of Aidan and Naimah in my gallery for reference and also shows the feelings between them still. It is called Trepidion
Naimah Naimah was fouund on the streets by Aidan when she was younger after he had a vision of her. She was his partner and is now with Lumani. She has a very small ability to Maur but cant do it on command.
Lumani He is very crule and somewhat insane in his desire to capture the Dakarai Princess and unleash Lyis. Lumani is currently attempting to take over the throne in the unstable country and he believes that by taking a dakarai princess as his queen he will be able to take over Dakarai as well. There are one picture in my galllery of Shiah and him called Dreaming of you - rough
LaKiana Is of the current noble family of the Shar and feels that Naimah unworthy of Lumanis attentions and thinks of her as a commoner. She isnt afraid to belittle her and is attempting to steal Lumani to reuinte the shar kingdome. She is a new character we are adding and doesnt have any current designs although she is beautiful.
(This is just a few bits of the story line. It would take forever to expain it all. It is much more complicated then this when you add some of the unique magic elements we have added to this.)
Here is the Prophecy: "When Dakarai blood stains the stones of Serei, the earth shall shift and return the sword of Tamarri. At the second birth of the new moon, Dakarai white shall fall to black. Then shall Lyis be found and Dakarai crumble to nothing."

The butter legion- a socialist movement/mass colab project I started, to trigger artistic change and evolution in Da artists (mainly my watchers), to make them more active and dedicated on DA. Now 170 people strong and growing... A "dangerous cult"? a "new religion"? "artistic version of fight club" or "communist movement"? You decide!
Hello there! This news article is the result of a thumb share thread I posted few days ago on the dA forum along with pictures from my favorites. I hope you enjoy them.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant.
