+1 Very Dutiful Werewolf

Hey guys!

This intro post is coming a good deal late because I was afk being a dirty hippy at a several day long music festival! c: I'm Snow, and I'm bringing in this fella, Tal Kennard. Long story short, he's a werewolf who was sent down by a northwestern English pack to act as an armsman for a local Seelie fae in need of additional muscle/protection.

I'd LOVE some CR! In fact, I've even got some great thoughts--

SEELIE
Could you be the fae lord/lady he was pledged to? Currently the spot's rather handwaved as an NPC, but I'd love to see a PC to fill it! He'd also be VERY ADAMANT about guarding any and all Seelie fae about their daily lives, and could (at your discretion) easily simply be called upon to pop up where needed to help your character out of a bind!

WEREWOLVES
His own pack was very big on accepting their curse, and he greatly disdains werewolves who don't! So his relationship with other werewolves is likely to be strained, perhaps even antagonistic! He's not very tactful, and calls it like he sees it. That said, he's likely to tuck tail around alpha types! He's a natural follower.

VAMPIRES
He's got a hair trigger switch. You a vamp? If he can scent you, he's coming for you. Fuck the police!

WITCHES
He may seek out a witch to help him manage his curse from time to time, especially now that there's no giant wilderness area to run off to! But... he's been raised half in the fae world, and to those who have had a traditional upbringing, he's likely to rub off as Quite Odd.

OTHER
Lay it on me! I love good ideas! He'd fight hunters, naturally, pick fights like any half-civilised lads (he rather looks a bit like a scruffy thug), and just generally be odd at you. Get past his guard mode and he can rub off rather like a happy kid brother. Try to teach him about upworlder human things! Have a mate to do some drugs with! Or someone to pick a fight with! You name it, we can work it out~

The big question I have for you (which may have been answered in your app but it is 7:15am and I am on mobile so I didn't check oops) is how Tal treats humans? Mainly, does he kill/maim/eat them for no reason/werewolf reasons? FAOLAN WOULD HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THIS. If not, or possibly even if so, they both do not like vamps and are hunter/were opposite sides so they could have some beautiful negative and positive at the same time complicated cr together WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS

HONOR AND DUTY as you know Faolan understands these concepts very well. In this the pair of them are perhaps somewhat alike? Faolan himself has a pretty substantial kill count, so he doesn't really have room to judge. If Tal had REASON for his kills, then Faolan can begrudgingly accept that.

HONESTLY I JUST REALLY LOOK FORWARD TO THE PAIR OF THEM INTERACTING there are so many different directions their CR could take, it would be exciting to find out where it would go :')a
