Paladin 'Knight' Ancora

As Exodus ducked backward, Paladin grinned and angled his body to twist, coming front paws first to the ground already half turned to face his brother, swinging his front end around to face Xodus as his hind paws landed, neatly settling into his defenses as he went, paws settling equidistant beneath his shoulders and hips. His head and tail fell level with his spine, hackles bristling along his spine in mock severity as he let his ears fall back to his scruff as his brother bounced forward, making what had been five feet into three feet between them.

He winked at his brother’s comments, chuckling, “I’m a Cleric! We train in both fighting and healing, so it’s always good to keep my skills sharp. Can’t let the Legionaries have all the fun, can we? Welcome home!”

His elbows and hocks bent slightly to lower his center of gravity and loosen his joints for movement, claws flexing and digging into the soil for traction as he sought to lunge forward with a laugh and close the short distance of three feet between himself and his brother, hoping to catch Exodus still bowed.

His weight shifted to his hind legs as he brought his front legs forward in a pounce, aiming to bring both front paws down between Exodus’s shoulder blades and pin him to the ground. Simultaneously, he ducked his head down, chin tucking naturally to cover his throat as his jaws opened and snaked down, aiming to grab his brother by the scruff of his back, just behind the shoulders, hoping for a firm grip.

Instinctively, his tail flicked to tuck between his hind legs. Didn’t need to smother Xodus with a full view of that area.
