Personality: Arrogant, but very caring to those of his pack that he respects. To cares less for others outside of the pack, even family members. Is a smart aleck,is known to fight back if he thinks he is right, which is basically most of the time. He has some smarts, is very cunning and mischevious. When not helping others he enjoys making their lives a bit hectic..
.Likes: The land that they were brought to, even though plenty of the pack does not see the joy that he does. He also loves the sea breeze that comes in between the moutain tops and one day wishes to go seek out the ocean. Is very, very protective and close to the pack that he was born in, even though his mother wasn't the best to raise a pup. He also enjoys spending time with his father's friends Nuk and Sumac, even if Nuk is always hungry and sorta ferocious, and Sumac is a block head. And even though most of the others in the pack dislikes the one called niju, after an encounter and arguement with him, he came to actually like the other wolf....
Dislikes: Has a great dislike for some of the things that his mother has done, he himself having gotten in plenty of arguements with her in his adolescence of how she leads the pack along with his father. He also resents her for an act that she commited, but not many know of it. Whenever Aleu would make a wrong decision in the pack, he would be the scape goat of some of the younger wolf's anger, thus causing him to have a grudge.
Summary: Alaiack was born two years after the pack left the mainland of Alaska on the ice, during this time things were peaceful. He lived a decent pup-hood, though most of the care came from his father because his mother was busy running the pack, which wasn't much since Yak himself wasn't much of the father type. So he had to learn things on his own, which helped him in the long run and made him become an independant young canine.
He was a subject to bullying though because of his mother's inexperience with the new land and decisions,thus caused him to shift away from his own age group and he tended to stick around more of the older wolves where he learned all of the customs and traditions of the ancient culture of their heritage. He took to the information, learning the balance of the pack ranks and gathering a great understanding and respect for the way that things were.
As a yearling he made the mistake of leaving from the pack, and traveling towards the ocean, of which, during this time, the ice was still around, thus giving him access to the mainland. He traveled across, wanting to see the old home of their pack as the older wolves had told of it. After traveling for a long while, of which was a few hours, he finally come upon the rocky shore of Alaska. Due to the great care that the elders had told of the landscape, he knew where every mark, nook, and cranny was. He explored the old, yet new world only to find himself face to face with an old, gnarly tree, upon further inspection, he came to find a warm, soft, grey body laying against the tree. It was to his amazement, that it was another wolf.... the very wolf that had lead the pack years ago, Nava. Months would go by from this day of which the young, novice would be taught under the old leader himself until the day came to be that the old wolf's life finally gave out, and it was right after this event, in his grief and mourning that Alaick finally encountered the one who was left behind, Niju. Having heard the negative views upon him, he took out his anger upon the older wolf, only to be easily reprimanded and defeated, though he was the son of Aleu, Niju was near to the point of killing him, but life had changed him, the tough times of not having a pack and seeing himself in the younger half-breed caused his mind to change. Instead, like nava, he too gave favor to the younger one and kept him under his guidance.
From Nava, Alaiack had learnt power of the mind and spirit.... from Niju, he learnt power of the body and force of will. The times were tough though, the lack of caribou greatly caused life to be tough, but nature was his teacher and guide along with his two canide mentors. The two traveled around, even to a point of crossing the border of Nome, of which he had spotted a canine from afar that he thought looked familar to him, his view was blocked though by what appeared to be a red and cream female dog, along with a goose and two polar bears. Niju pushed him on as they made their way. A year had passed, once again the ice flows had returned, even though he had offered sanctuary to Niju, the wolf denied it. Seeing there was no way of changing his mind, he left him, traveling back to the home that he had known.
Times had changed though, he was not met with a welcoming hello. During the year of being gone, disease had struck the pack causing many, his mother included, to pass on. Many of the wolves that he had come to know and love had been exhiled from the pack by the new leader, a wolf that had come up from no where with a band of other wolves right when the disease started. It was to this that Alaiack was found and brought forth to the Alpha. Immediatley he was scorned and spatted at. Calls and jeers being yelled at him as now all that was left of the pack was followers of the male wolf and the younger gerneration of the old pack. The alpha made the decision of to exhile him like with rest, but not before leaving him with a reminder. Alaiack was left to the mercy of the alpha's top fighters, beaten and torn, try as he did he could not fight off against the many. He was left on the outskirts of a neighboring pack's border. When the patrol came by, they saw nothing but the patchy spots of blood from where heh had lain, paw prints heading deep towards the inland. He wasn't heard from for a long, but he would have his revenge, his story was far from over, his legacy was yet to be achieved.
Relation to balto: Son of Aleu and Yak, met niju and nava, and is the grandsom to balto.
