well, I'm posting this image from the comic here to move those images that are stretching the pages. This serves as a slight character bio, so here goes! (I will have far more detailed ones later of course)
Tonius(now known as Tony)before he became a full alp, he spent nine years living with his mother. He actually died when he was born(how an alp comes to be, most often) but his mother dug him back up, and found him to be...."alive"*cough* aaanyway, he was raised in a priveleged home. The boy did appear to be odd, but they just passed it off as being "sickly" and when they went out, he had to bring the cane so people would avoid questioning his appearance.(he's just impaired...don't stare!)
When he finally got the hat, it was obvious that he was a little more than just odd, and little Tonius was run out of the small German town where he was raised by "concerned" family members.He stowed away on a boat, and that's how he ended up in Charby's hometown. yup.
Myna and Xavier: victims of the witch hunters,(twins were unfairly maligned back in the days) these two
don't remember their actual names, and they were renamed slightly by the one who raised them(he knew their names)
Menu: he was an orphan found wandering the streets when he was taken in by some very neglectful guardians at an orphanage, and at the age of ten was scratched(almost gutted too) by a werewolf. being the type of wolf it was and he now is, he ages very slowly and never returns to human form. Hence, being the "perpetual werewolf"!
Phineas: a merman (boy), a creature that is half mammal, half fish(he's got a little frog in him too!)the males of the species are usually grotesque and dragon-like, while the females (mer"maids" hehe)are delicate and beautiful, often using their looks to tempt drown sailors. Phineas gets teased for not being ugly enough!
Zerlocke: after witnessing the brutal mutilation of his best childhood friend,(and the subsequent burial where his claims that she was still alive went unheeded)a mentally scarred Zerlocke spent the rest of his life muted around people (especially his drunkard father)and worked as a farmhand for his father's farm, doing almost all of the hard labor while his father knocked back the moonshine and criticized him.After an encounter with what he thought was an "angel" hiding in the barn, Zerlocke's life was changed indeed.
Viki:she's just here to make you feel bad cuz she's dead!
no, just kidding. Victoria was raised by her father after her mother ran off on them.Mr. Calandra had always wanted a son, so he raised her like one, he taught her that being helpless would get her nowhere, so he trained her with firearms and enrolled her into many different self-defense classes throughout her life.Though she was trained to be very aware of her surroundings, her over-confident attitude and tendency to rush into situations headlong is what lead to her downfall.
Blaine:He was a very bright and happy child,before he witnessed both of his parents being murdered by a vampire.
After inheriting his family's fortune(his parents were the only surviving members) Blaine ran away from his foster home and set off to establish a anti-demon campaign, first by hiring local gang members(all he had to do was pay them and they would believe any crazy kid's ideas!) and then at the age of 11 he began to hunt them himself, striking deals with some very important city officials for payment for the"extermination of local demonic vermin"(they were very aware of such activities, many of them having witnessed such demons firsthand and they gladly paid him) the organization he later founded remains secret to the public and even the police, and recruiting is usually done by word of mouth rather than advertisement.
Victor: as a bright and atheletic child, Vic was seen as a very promising asset to the anti-demon association, and was personally invited to join by Blaine himself when Vic was nine.
But Vic had seen a lot of demons before he joined, because they sensed his potential threat and Vic spent much of his childhood avoiding the darkness.He spent the his teenage years in denial, but when he finally decided to join he found that he was made for the job. and like our dear departed Viki after him, his pride went to his head and a small but vicious werewolf scratched out his eye.
