Goga
Name: Gogarty, but everyone who talks to him calls him 'Goga'. It means 'banished one' in Gaelic.
"Benji" by Raul's gang.
Age: 3-4 (3rd gen)
Gender: male
Breed: 1/4 Norwegian Elk-hound; 3/4 arctic wolf
Parents: Unknown
Mate or Crush: Goga is incredibly shy around females...he is a bit too jittery to pay much attention to them. (cept for Ronnie, of course)
Children (if any): none
Personality: Skittish and twitchy. Ever since the dogs of Nome first saw the beat up hound slink about the town they were abrasive and slightly disgusted with his appearance. He was avoided entirely, even by the kindest of dogs...and to Goga's relief, no humans bugged him either. Despite the way others treat him, he is very compassionate towards other creatures. He would go out of his way to help someone(but only if there wasn't an audience to watch him). Most think he is a shady character because of his un-sociability and of the way he is hardly ever seen during the day(he primarily only emerges at night). Goga is secretly starved for attention, but he is to embarrassed and ashamed of his appearance to put himself out and make friends. Needless to say, his self-esteem is at rock bottom.
Likes: keeping to himself and sparing himself the agony of being made fun of; helping others; walking through the forests; howling(like his wolf side demands)
Dislikes: getting hit, burned, or pain in any form; the fishing shack; dogs who avoid him; himself
Hates: his appearance(scars)
Fears: pain; humans; being alone
History:
His parents and his siblings all lived in the wild. When he was a pup, Goga was trapped by forest rangers and sold to a man who already owned a few other dogs. Goga was very nervous and frightened, but was comforted by the fact that he owned other dogs. All too soon, the man's abusive side was revealed. He received a multitude of painful scars, and the other dogs weren't too well of either. One day, Neydan(WickedInnocence), Avila(Kolt) and Shailene(Kolt), other dogs owned by the cruel tyrant, were busted out by Avila (who escaped earlier) and Rihito(Kolt).
They went their separate ways, Goga taking refuge in a small town a few miles away. To his dismay, he was basically banished from the dog's civilization because of the way he looked. He found a fishing shack on the edge of town, and has secretly been living there.
After a while, he ventured back and was accepted by a reg-tag gang of misfits. He fits in well among the battle-scarred dogs, though he still gets queer look now and then. After staying in town for a while, he evenytually noticed a pretty house-dog, (Ronnie) one who never vetured outside. he became curious in the shy female, and felt he could relate to her if he could only meet her.
Later on her found shelter in a street gang which wasn't fazed by his many scars. Though Goga, or "Benji" after he was humorously re-named by the gang, is still painfully reserved and shy, he does finally feel some comfort at being accepted.
