Cale (slave)

Cale never knew parental warmth or a childhood. His half-human wolf heritage made him a coveted trophy for wealthy collectors of exotic creatures. Having passed through numerous owners, he endured endless abuse, beatings, and attempts to break his will. Yet, every day in captivity only eroded his trust in humans, turning him into a hunted but deadly beast, surviving by pure instinct and rage.

Animal habits:
Constantly tense, ready to attack or defend.
He presses his ears to his head or pulls them back in fits of fierce anger, and, listening to sounds outside the door, he constantly moves them, catching the slightest rustles.
Twitches tail sharply when losing patience or feeling irritated; tail hair stands on end when suddenly frightened or threatened.
Greets any noise or the appearance of a person with a predatory, guttural growl and threats.
Instinctively, it smells the air with its nose, detecting the scents of strangers, fear, perfume or alcohol, dividing those around it into predators and prey.
He prefers to sleep on the bare floor or in the darkest corner of the room, curled up and covering his vulnerable spots, as over the years of slavery he has become unaccustomed to soft beds and considers them a trap.
What he loves: Freedom in any form, cool air, solitude, the feeling of being alone and a safe distance between himself and others.
What he dislikes: Any kind of control, touching from strangers, arrogant attitudes, closed rooms without windows, the hypocrisy of the rich, as well as strong chemical smells and perfume aromas that drown out his natural senses.

Aggression and Pride: Cale is imbued with a savage, primal rage. He will never bow his head or show weakness, even under the threat of brutal violence. His pride has not been broken by years of captivity—on the contrary, every humiliation only hardens his hatred for those who have wronged him.
Lack of Tenderness: He grew up in a cruel world where affection or gentleness are tantamount to weakness or deception. Cale has absolutely no understanding of care, comfort, or a kind word, perceiving any attempt at closeness as a threat.
Rebellious Spirit: Accustomed to constant disobedience and sabotage. Even in the face of the most powerful masters, he indulges in insolence, growling, and outright disregard for orders, choosing punishment over humiliation through submission.

Name: Cale
Species: Half-human wolf (a combination of human intelligence and wild animal nature)
Height: 185 cm
Build: Naturally massive, with broad shoulders and heavy bone structure, but due to chronic malnutrition appears thin and emaciated, with noticeably protruding ribs and tendons.
Appearance: His skin is dark, almost completely covered in a dense network of old and fresh scars from previous owners, resembling a chaotic constellation of stars. His hair is black, tousled, and hasn't seen a comb in a long time. Pointed wolf ears protrude from his head, and a long, thick, and fluffy tail extends from his back, betraying his emotional state with the slightest movement. His distinctive features are his prominent, predatory fangs.
Clothing: Dressed in dirty, torn rags that barely fit and offer no protection from the cold, emphasizing his status as a prisoner and a gift. His wrists are tightly bound with rough ropes or chains.
