History: Nero was born to two Siberian Husky parents. He lived a pretty good life with them and enjoyed playing with his siblings. At eight weeks, he was adopted and taken to live in Nome. However, he was abandoned shortly after, and thus had to fend for himself. He was picked up by a ragtag group of strays who often manipulated other dogs and even people to get what they wanted, and they often resorted to violence. Not knowing any better, Nero picked up on their gruesome ways, turning him into the evil violent dog that everyone started to know him as.

    When he reached adulthood, he became the gang leader, but wanted to have more of a purpose in life. When he heard that a race was being held to place two new dogs on Nome’s mail team, Nero jumped at the chance and enlisted himself in the race. However, he unfortunately lost the race, which he found especially irritating because the team had taken in the first and second place winners, and he got third. However, he was convinced that he had gotten second rather than Tungsten, the real second place winner, as they were practically neck and neck. However, Nero still wasn’t placed on the team, and swore from that day on that the members of Nome’s mail team were his mortal enemies. He even went so far as to beating up Kodi in an alleyway and injuring him badly, preventing him from running for a couple of weeks.

    Eventually, Nero met a girl named Hyler whose owner had just moved to Nome. Hyler wasn’t super interested in Nero, but she was rather gullible, and so Nero manipulated her into being his mate. Nero often used Hyler to help him bring the mail team down. They eventually had puppies, and all of them turned out to be as vindictive as their parents, except for Skye, who ended up mating with Tungsten’s son Luken.

Relation to Balto: Enemies with the dogs on the mail team
