Background

• Born in the lower tiers of Crescent Vale, Mordecai never knew luxury, only labor. He was one of seven orphaned boys who survived the Undervein together, scavenging and building their own refuge beneath the city. They carved power grids from abandoned subway lines, developed their own skills, and smuggled supplies past scent check barricades. Earned the nickname “Grumpy” for his blunt temper and refusal to believe in false hope. Yet beneath the irritation lies fierce loyalty.

Notes

• the pack is referred to as “The Seven”
• when with a partner that has a uterus, when impregnation occurs, a hormone is released that enhances fertility and coaxes more eggs to release. when with a partner without a uterus, when impregnation occurs a temporary uterus forms because of the hormones dispersed with the semen. this uterus operates as usual for the baby (babies) to grow and when time of delivery arrives it must be carried out through c-section. after delivery the temporary uterus will dissolve and leave the body through natural ways
• goes into a rut every six months, during which he is overwhelmed by the urge to breed
