Species: Sapient Lycanth
Birthplace: Lycanthia, Amargosa
Red is a senior sapient lycanth from the isolated continent of Lycanthia on Amargosa. Distinguished by his reddish-brown fur and gruff demeanor, he serves as a mentor and occasional protector to Ellie Nardino following the Liberation of Amargosa. Red was one of the key lycanths who accepted Ellie into his pack during the occupation, ultimately helping to shape her leadership of the Northern Resistance. He has a strained relationship with his daughter Blackie, who initially resented Ellie. Despite cultural and biological differences, Red consistently advocates for Ellie’s inclusion among his people, viewing her as “a lycanth in a monkey body.”
Red is noted for his blunt speech, straightforward loyalty, and willingness to challenge the divisions between humans, Gelt, and lycanths. He remains one of Ellie’s anchors as she navigates adulthood after the occupation.
