Lupine 29? Unnecessary but much appreciated gift for waiting on stuff in 2012 of Lupines! A taciturn loner by nature, Aspen was a peripheral member of the Green Forest Pack... he returned home from one of his long-ranging forages and was devastated by it's destruction and the loss of the pack he didn't realize he needed. Struck mute, he retreated into the mountains and avoided all contact with other lupines for the longest time, to avoid having to feel the pain of loss again. Later joined the Misty Mountain Pack when he was found by ??? (another Green Forest Pack original) and is now a fierce, protector of the pack. He's still mute and tends to be a little antisocial, though how that's possible when he refuses to let his packmates out of sight is rather a mystery!
