Personality: Arrogant, kind, very brave, and soft-hearted. He tends to be very trusting and puts his faith in others. He is easy to manipulate, very optimistic, and always happy. Shep is very high-energy and quite the dreamer, as well as very ambitious. He is very social and lets everything roll off the shoulder if he needs to. Shep is very creative – there’s nothing in his mind much better than a good story, and he always thinks abstractly. Shep always says that while reality’s a lovely place, he wouldn’t want to live there.

Creativity – Shepard can use his mind to get out of any situation.

Innocent – Shepard’s innocence may be endearing, but it also makes him very susceptible to manipulation.
History:
Born on the streets and raised of them, too. Shep was always on his own, and very independent. He didn’t take long to run into Rev, who was making an attempt to snag Shep’s food. Shepard didn’t exactly want to give away what might be the only meal he got in a few days. They fought shortly before Shep had impressed Rev with his defense, and she let off.
After that, the pair decided to start traveling together. They clashed quite often, but always they stayed together.
At one point, though, that changed.
Rev and Shep found the junkyard. By then, Scamp and Angel had met and Scamp was hanging around the gang. Shep had known from the beginning what Scamp and Angel would become, but he was smitten with Angel for a long time. He hid it for his own good, for Scamp’s good, for Angel’s own good. He still loved her for quite some time, and this made it impossible for him to settle in.
 Rev settled in quickly, but Shep was always pretty skeptical of them – especially Buster. Whilst Rev got along fine with him, play wrestling and bantering. They were much closer in personality than Shep and Rev, but eventually, things went bad.
Not long before the incident between Tramp and Buster, Buster went after Rev’s affections, which she gruffly neglected him, and he turned violently on her. Shep managed to help her fight Buster off, and the two stayed in the far East corner of the Junkyard until the junkyard dogs disbanded. They then decided to take the East corner of the junkyard for themselves, as well as whoever decided to join them.
From then on, Shep and Rev separately made rounds in the streets in case they came across others – dogs and cats both – who might want to join them. Things went on in peace for them, as they continued to look for recruits for their own junkyard gang.
