The Black-Water

At the bottom of the pecking order, the Black-Waters have experienced a life of hardship and isolation. Having to share their land with the Marsh-Hunts, they are often left with little room to expand and less room to hunt. These mixed wolves have been struggling to get their voices heard since their creation. A shunned and hated group the Black-Waters have only existed for a few generations, though the origin story varies according to who tells it.

In truth, the first outcast wolf’s name was forgotten, yet alone why he was banished. All that is remembered is that he was tossed to the wilds and sent to live in the marshlands. It was only a matter of time before other wolves were sent to live with him, and over time they bred. This new collection of wolves was given a name and accepted as a clan not long after, but their place was set in stone - they were outcasts and mixed, the other clans would never welcome them.

Being a blend of the other clans, most Black-Waters are very well balanced and tend to have some of the better traits of the wolves that made them up with the common traits that allow them to survive in the murky swamp they call home.

Appearance
There is no set height or body build for the Black-Water. They tend to vary as they are all different levels of mixed, and so they range from the smallest to the tallest of heights. They come in all sizes and all widths, and none are thought to be odd or out of place among them.

A strange occurrence only found in the Black-Waters is a particular patterning in their fur where it can be merle. There is no real limit on the possibilities for their fur colors and it does strongly depend on what the wolf is mixed with. Not all of these marsh-bound Lukars have water repellent fur, but a large chunk of them do.

The last odd but not uncommon feature of these Lukars is heterochromia. This usually results in one eye being the color of whatever the prominent mix is and the other one be the next most present wolf type. The only color that their eyes can not be is red, as that is not present in any of the other Lukar eye colors.
