Alpha Howl - a deep soul wrenching howl that instinctively draws all lycans withing hearing distance (4-5 miles) to him.
Alpha control - allows Desten to control other ranks of lycans, even allows him to control the shift of some.
Weapon of choice: Family sword “Venom” - enhances power of the moon. Seems to have an entity of it's own.
Personality: Being a part of the First Family blood line he is well mannered, but can be hot tempered if provoked in the right way. He is strong willed, kind hearted, but can be very hard headed at times and his emotions will sometimes get the better of him. He always puts the pack’s needs over his own and even though he is Alpha he still likes the company of all the other wolves. To him they are all family and he would die to protect each and every one of them.

History: First born son of Desten Argos Darkwood Jr. and Rachel Elizebeth Darkwood, Desten was the prodigy child, he learned how to control his lycan form by the age of 10, could manipulate the element of fire by the age of 13, and proved to be the top of his generation, proving that he was indeed his father’s son. Somehow even though his was the son of the Alpha, Desten always seemed to find his way into some sort of trouble and never failing to drag his cousin Lucius with him. He loved playing and joking around while his father would deal with his uncles and all the problems of the family. He would every now and then stop to listen to the words of his father and gaze at the blade that was strapped to his side, hoping that one day he would get to be the Alpha, the one calling the shots and getting to protect everyone. If only he knew the price it would come at.
The night of his 21st birthday Desten, Jack, their cousin and a few of his friends went out on the town to celebrate his becoming a true man of the pack and a victory that he had won against some of their blood enemies the vampires. When he returned home the sight he came into could only be described by him as his worst nightmare come true. His father and mother had both been murdered in the bed room where they slept. No one knew what or who had caused this but the air was thick with the smell of vampire and human. Rage and pain filled Desten’s heart and all he could think about was finding out who did this and making them pay. The next day after the funeral Desten took an oath on his father’s grave that he would protect his brother, lead the pack as his father had taught him and swore to find his killer and make him pay. With those promises Desten became the youngest Alpha in history.
That day happened 35 years ago, now with his little brother and Lucius at his right side and his father’s sword on his left, Desten has become one of the most well know lycans to ever exist. He will find out what happened to cause his parents deaths…if it takes till the end of time to do so.
