Description: Zrani has large wings that are both sturdy and strong and allow him to fly and gain momentum really fast, when they are folded they give the illusion that tree branches are growing from his sides do to their color and designs.
Duke is very fast while flying and very nimble although not too much on the ground he maintains his speed and strength. His body is very light thanks to his mixed blood but at the same time he is not very resilient and much to his own displeasure he lacks the natural endurance of his Avira heritage. Zrani“s teeth and jaw are strong enough to hold pry while flying even if his fangs and claws are below average. His fur is golden brown with patches of burgundy, yellow and vivid green located on his paws, tail and neck. The feathers of his large wings go from white to yellow with red endings on the inside and completely brown on the outside. Duke“s eyes are a silvery white color matching the flowing markings on his fur. There are several plantlike formations protruding from his body. Forming leaves on the outside arc of his wings, climbing plants or lianas intertwining with his long tail and a white flower on the end of his braided beard

Personality: He is a social wolf giving of an air of stoicism with a personality that is defined by a strong need to prove himself, a imperative curiosity and a deep anger with specific triggers. He appeases all this by trying to emulate the intellectual and calm demeanor of the clan he grew up in.
He is an artist like his father and has a natural appreciation for life in all its forms, which sometimes translates in a pacifist mindset that he hates, forcing himself to be active and participate in solving conflicts. Zrani has a great sense of empathy and cares for the health of those around him
Abilities: His Avira connection to the sky is not as strong as a full blood would be but thanks to his intense practice and the strength in his wings he still is able to produce wind blasts that impact with enough force to knock some wolves around. This more so with the momentum he can achieve when flying, using this impulse, especially when he reaches his maximum velocity, enhances his Air skills. Duke is an avid healer with a self taught grasp on the healing properties of plants, this combined with his ability to mildly control the lianas entwined on his tail denotes a more developed Aven pack set of skills.
Concentrating on a clear mind and using great amounts of energy he can use his own breath to heal non fatal wounds with a varied success.
Equipment: He carries a pouch usually with herbs and medicinal plants, books, something to draw or paint and also his Okinawan kusarigama, a gift from Rovy, which he uses spar with him.

likes: finding new and interesting places to explore, challenging himself, pretending to be wise, helping others especially with their health and drawing painting
Dislikes: Has a fear of storms especially while flying, unnecessary death, feeling weak or useless, people who doesn“t take action when they can, drinking
History: Throughout his early life Duke and those around him had always made him , unintentionally or not, feel conflicted, inadequate and worse weak, his rare breed half Avira half Aven made him stand out in the Avira pack but according to Zrani, for all the wrong reasons, although his big sturdy wings developed early enough, no matter all the training and practice he put himself through, his connection to the sky and its wind currents was lackluster. Even living in the floating mountains, sometimes he didn“t feel as free as the other members of the pack, the raging winds and powerful cyclones always scared and intimidated him. In stark contrast to this his connection to nature, his healing abilities and even his appearance showed his Aven blood, a part of himself, that triggered a great anger inside of him since it brought thoughts of his mother, a powerful healer that apparently without a reason abandoned him and his twin brother to the care of their father, an Avira sentinel who struggled to raise the twins but ultimately, was unable to protect them during a conflict between the Borak pack and his, leaving Zrani seriously wounded and both his father and brother dead.
His coming to adulthood saw him growing more and more curious about the state of Nigerius and what may lay below the endless sky of Era. His temperament slowly changed developing a faƧade emulating the passive intellectual attitude of his pack but inside he blamed for not been able to save his family. Turning this guilt into a determination to prove himself and giving him a short fuse in regards to independency and weakness but this determination also landed him on a more social route adopting his father job in the pack and becoming a sentinel himself. Was working on this job that he spotted, during a rogue mercenary attack, a young Strigoi female observing the fight with a river of blood circling around her.
In the middle of this mercenary attack Zrani save the life of a Hemlock male named Kroviye and after this one returning the favor in a similar fashion they started forming a friendship. Almost half a year later would place them traveling through the vast and hostile Nigerius. Doing odd job, mercenary work and helping when their help was accepted.
Tl;dr: Zrani is an emphatic, calm halfbreed wolf with some anger issues, who lost his family and now is traveling with a friend to see the world and maybe help...
