Ardyn nodded slowly at his brother’s agreement, adding, ”Indeed. It’s always good to add new life to the pack. Be it newborns or newcomers. Aoife’s gone a lot. You know her, always on the chase for inspiration for new songs.”
His ears flicked forward with interest as Coran detailed a little of his travels, and grinned, remarking, “I’ll have to call one soon, then.”
To Coran’s assurance, he chuckled, nodding, “I’d think you would know better than to cause a ruckus with other packs.”
Laughter rewarded his teasing questions, and his long-haired tail swayed in amusement as Coran joked back. If any of that was true, he’d had more experience than himself, that was for certain. “If ever a lady or gentleman catches your eye and your heart, I’d love to meet them. Give them the talkin’ to about treating my little brother right.”
The tip of his tongue poked out in a teasing flick, eyes twinkling, before he joined the sigh. “It’s good to have you home again. I love our sisters dearly, but I missed having you around.”

Ardyn at first glance is as black as can be imagined with a raven sheen.
Closer inspection proves that he shimmers in fire tones in every hair on his hide right down to his lashes.
More obviously, he glows like a bed of coals and flames with every movement and brush of fur. His tail is usually wagging, so blazes like a torch.
His adult teeth are in and his saber canines have grown to their full length (see profile). His mane and tail hair have grown to full length, as well as being lightweight and easily buffeted by breezes.
A look at his front paws will give the impression of hands, with his dew claw dropped low and lengthened into a functioning thumb, and his toes elongated into fingers. He has retractable, solid black cat-like claws on every paw.
Ardyn has developed a glowing mast of intricate markings in fire and ice colors over his face, symmetrical over the last seasons of Year 17 (see profile for details). During hunts or raids/sieges, he will smudge them out with black soot to cover the glow, otherwise, they are bright enough to note at first direct glance at his face. Not all his artwork currently portrays the mask markings.
He is also often bedecked in beads, small bells, feathers in blues, ribbons and braids thanks to the Ooze Event of Halloween 2021, and the Coathanger item that he got. The accessories generally are seen most in his mane and tail hair. He removes the brighter items and bells for hunts or battle.
