Namely one of my guys who left the White Fang on not so friendly terms, if I were to go full-scale fanfic I'd have it be Adam who cut the guy's arm off and left him for dead.

But since I probably won't, meh.

Anyways, the old master returns. Not my best work but I am a bit rusty.

Core Info 1) Basic Info Name: Talon Halász Birth name: Adal Wolf CNR Explanation: Adalwolf is an Old German name meaning Noble Wolf; abandoned birth name after becoming a Huntsman. Species: Human Age: 26 Gender: Male Emblem: Four howling wolves heads forming a cross Handedness: Right Nicknames: Pup (Brenner Silversmith) Occupation: Huntsman, Drifter 2) Appearance: Aura Color: Dull red Height: 6’5” Weight: 290lbs Eyes: reddish-brown Skin Color: naturally pale, vaguely tanned. Face Shape: (skip for now this part is hard) Hair: chestnut brown, windswept; has seemingly permanent stubble Physical Traits: Symbol tattoo on right shoulder along with five sets of initials: The initials BS and TH are in tact, while the initials BW, AW, and SR have been crossed out Physique: Talon is noticeably muscular Outfit: Talon wears leather pants and vest worn over a white cutoff t-shirt, with a yellow bandana with the Mistral emblem tied around his forehead. On top of his standard clothing are multiple armored hard-points made primarily of ballistic polymer materials. When activated, they expand to cover his arms, legs, and torso in armor resembling modern motorcycle safety gear including a full-head helmet. Accessories: Gadgets: Fenrir; a custom Touring-style motorcyle (modelled after a 1992 Honda Gold Wing); custom paint job depicts heavy wolf pack imagery, has an integrated grenade launcher and auto-loader for his weapon, both pulling from the same ammo reserve built into the rear storage deck. 3) Characteristics: Background: Mistral, the largest kingdom on Remnant; its sheer size makes it a dangerous place at times, as the government struggles to maintain the safety of their furthest villages. Poor CCT reception even in the best of times in those outer regions opened up a business opportunity the 16 year old Adal Wolf couldn’t resist; having some degree of savings from being paid to work the family farm he bought an old junker touring motorcycle, fixing it up and starting his own courier service. Now making a tidy profit off his investment, Lone Wolf National Couriers was born.

Though the name was an exaggeration it reflected his true desire, to build a network of such couriers across the outer territories. The dream was a means to an end, as in his youthful foolishness, he had impregnated his girlfriend Sunny Rome. He wanted to provide for her and their unborn child to the best of his ability and move them deeper into the kingdom where it was safer.

On the way home from one especially long (and well paying) job to travel to Mistral city, he received the news that his village had fallen under attack. He posted an emergency mission at the nearest mission board and started his way back home to try and assist.

Adal arrived too late, the village was gone; along with his parents and, more importantly, the love of his life. The Huntsman arrived shortly thereafter, an older man named Brenner. He offered his condolences to Adal Wolf when he saw a young man nearly broken, having suffered a similar trauma, Brenner offered Adal a new goal; a new path to carry on. He soon after acquired his tattoo; bearing the initials of those who died; Sunny Rome, Buck Wolf, and Adol Wof.

With the death of Adal came Talon, who became Brenner’s apprentice and began his training as a Huntsman. Talon followed along with the old man tracking downs nests of grimm and taking the odd mission to pay for gas and safe lodgings. He remained with his mentor for many years, learning all the skills of a Huntsman and, slowly, healing his emotional scars, and acquiring his Huntsman’s license. They still ride together, near a decade after that day; sparing others the fate both of their families had suffered.

Personality: Adal Wolf was a kind-hearted, devoted, and hard-working young man, he deeply loved his friends and family and worked hard to help connect the world around him.

As Talon, he is somewhat jaded, though he maintains the core of his personality. He is hesitant to trust or allow people into his life, but works tirelessly to protect them. Those he does come to trust are like family, viewing Brenner in particular as a father. He has, over the years, acquired friends amongst other like-minded Huntsmen; those whose aim is to shield humanity rather than to acquire power and wealth.

He shares Brenner’s taste for the drink and can often be found in village taverns when off the clock. Misc Traits: Talon is something of a tinkerer, being a particularly skilled bike mechanic. He tends to speak in a very technical manner in casual conversation. Likes: Motorcyles, riding motorcycles, fighting Grimm Dislikes: Unnecessarily cruel, violent, and greedy people. 4) Trivia Notable Relationships: Sunny Rome: girlfriend and future fiance, was pregnant with their child when she died at age 16. Buck Rome: unborn son, immortalized with Talon’s tattoo Brenner Silversmith: partner, mentor, and surrogate father. They have been riding and fighting together since the day Adal Wolf was replaced by Talon Halasz. Skills: Engineering (motorcycles and weapon-making), Motorbike riding (travel and combat) Allusion: Tallahassee from Zombieland Notes: The most direct reference to his allusion is his unborn son, who shares his name with Tallahassee’s son from the film (also deceased). I attempted to hit the same approximate backstory notes without being a direct clone.
