Fur Colour: With a base of dark brown, Bevolio has dark grey socks which extend from his toes to his elbow, fading there into the brown. His eyes are also lined with grey, and he has a grey muzzle. A strip of dusky blue heading from his ears on either side, trails down the sides of his neck, under his arms, across his sides, and under his back legs, to where they meet and colour the underside of his tail blue. His stomach and chest, where under the blue line, are also grey.

Fur Style: Thick and rather spiky over his form.

Tattoos/Distinguishing Features: Benvolio's back is rather scarred from his life on the streets, and his wrists and arms also show signs of early abuse.

Build: With a naturally strong build, Benvolio has been blessed with large arms and thighs for all his work, and though not entirely toned, still has a bulky physique.

Speed: Not very fast at all. Benvolio was much fleeter as a teenager, but as his strength grew his speed diminished, and he now finds himself somewhat lacking in that area -though this doesn't both him in the least.

Strength: Rather strong though not incredibly so, Benvolio has more than enough strength to get him through daily life, and pick a few fights of his own.

Jewellery: He is not likely to wear much in the way of jewellery besides his single wedding band and a simple necklace here and there.

Outfit/Weapons: Typically laid-back, Benvolio would generally wear loose jeans and t-shirts. He's not fussy about what he weares, and is not in the least style-conscious. He's not the type to go shirtless, though he will do in the summer if it gets too hot, or if he's doing some hard labour. Benvolio has no specific weapons.

Information: Benvolio was born in Italy to a rather dysfunctional family -his biological father was a drug dealer, his mother somewhat loose, and the man that should have been his father (the husband to his mother), was in jail for committing armed burglary. Needless to say, it didn't take Benvolio to learn the darker side of romantic Italia, becoming addicted to Heroin at the tender age of 14. Soon, things were incredibly worse, his was father released from jail -only to serve him severe beatings nightly, mother dying from an overdose, and paternal father disappearing off the face of the planet. Benvolio ran away, understandably, and without any money whatsoever, found himself in a cold alley, going cold-turkey and sweating out the drugs he was so fond of. Common sense kicked in at the age of sixteen, and Benvolio was soon rather adept at stealing what he needed to survive. He had new friends, a place to live, and was essentially a complete 180 turn. Soon, though, he met a Feral who would change his life forever -Ceres, a Feline. She was an Italian native like himself, and indeed a Feral, but definitely not the type her well-bred parents would encourage her to court. He was the product of a hard life on the streets, and she was a pampered product of the upper-classes. Though his hard exterior was almost impenetrable, she weaselled her own way into his heart easily. Falling in love almost instantly, Benvolio and Ceres caused havoc wherever they went, in Human and Feral worlds alike. They were complete opposites, refined and rugged at the same time. It wasn’t long before her parents found out –and absolutely forbid them to be together. Not only did he have no status in ‘their’ world, but he was a Lycan, of all things. According to most, Lycan and Feline did not mix. Pressure on both sides, the pair ran away for good, trying to rid themselves of all who would try to pry them apart. Travelling across Europe to Canada, the pair lived there for two years –before the birth of their son Regan caused them to rethink their wayward ways. Ceres, a young mother now at only 19, needed a stable environment for her son. They lived in Canada for a few more years, before they heard of a new clan in Colorado who were willing to take in Ferals, no matter their status or loyalties. Upon meeting with the Alpha of the clan, who, by chance, happened to be in the area at the time, they decided to make the shift, and were soon members of the newly reborn Ngati Mate. Ceres fell pregnant once again at the age of 25, and Regan was soon joined by his brother, Jagger.
