Isaac Melendez

History

Isaac Melendez didn't have the happiest childhood growing up. Life in a bad neighborhood, mother run off to find a better life, father drinking his way to an early grave, it was no surprise when he signed on with the local gang. It wasn't just the outlet for his anger that attracted Isaac though. His fellow members felt more like family than the drunkard he called father. Their hideouts were more like home then the house he lived in. Out on the streets, working with his friends, he felt alive.

Isaac rose swiftly through the ranks, quickly earning the nickname "Steel Gaze" for his grey eyes and unshakable determination. The fact that he was built tougher than most other young men and had a rather imposing personality meant that he was able to do plenty for his gang even without needing to resort to actual violence. Often times rivals were just plain scared of him. The same could be said of his allies sometimes.

Life took a drastic change one night. Isaac and his crew went down to an abandoned warehouse for negotiation with another gang. Turns out the negotiations were the type that involved bullets. Isaac and his team were off guard, their over-confidence soon to be their downfall...

Isaac blacked out and found himself huddled in an alley the next morning covered in dried blood, his clothes shredded. It wasn't long before a pair of Iron Masters found him, having followed the trail from the warehouse right to him. Isaac's first change had been a bloody one, like for most Rahu. Everyone in the warehouse that night had died by his claws...Even his own former gang allies

His new tribe mates helped Isaac come to terms with what he was, showed him he had a higher purpose to fulfill now. After learning all he could from them, Isaac left his old town and headed for Sacramento looking to lay down roots and find a new pack to run with...One that he prays won't meet the same bloody fate as his first one.

Appearance

In his human form Isaac stands a little over 6 feet tall and looks like an average street tough of Latin American heritage. He's well-muscled and his piercing grey eyes give him an intimidating look. He has a few gang tattoos visible on his arms.

In his werewolf form, Isaac easily tops 8 feet with shaggy, charcoal black fur. His hands are streaked with red and his back has streaks of red and yellow (his old gang colors). While Iron Masters dying their fur is nothing new, no one is positive just what he's using to get such lasting color.
