'''Appearance:''' Moonchild takes on his human true form only on the most rare of occasions anymore. He changes his form to suit the occasion and has no preference between male and female forms. His current favorite human form is as that of a female wood aspected dragon-blood barbarian from the east. He uses his all black great wolf form with regularity, though. Lately he has begun to use the forms of a blood ape, the first form he took with the Green Sunchild knack and even more recently, a buck-ogre due to Luna's Hidden Face. He is at least 150 years old according to, Tloctl Spirit Render, his Lunar mentor.

==History==

The Lunar now known as Thrice-Born Moonchild With No Name (Moonchild) has no memory of the first part of his life. His memories were his Sacrifice to be initiated into Sorcery. He even gave up his name. He does remember his Second Breath, though. He can recall with clarity how he was being chased by wolves. How he decided that he would not die running. How Luna, the Bloody Huntress came to him and gave him the strength to fight on. How he became the hunter and the wolves the hunted. He did not need to kill all of them, just the leader. To this day, Moonchild remembers vividly his first kill as his finest kill, his first Heart's Blood as the most fulfilling.

For the next 30 years or so, Moonchild hunted prey and searched out lost lore for himself and the Silver Pact. He has been on several expeditions to rescue Unblooded and take down Chimera. He has been instrumental in teaching many novice Lunars how to hunt and survive.

For his initiation into the Celestial Circle of Sorcery, Moonchild assumed he would just give a similar sacrifice  as the first time. The Sorcery had different plans though. He arrogantly offered whatever was required and he was furious at what it took. His freedom. Since that day, Moonchild has had dreams and visions the return of a companion from another time who he was subservient to. He has fought the supernatural pull to go to this person. He has recently been called upon to go to Nexus and retrieve an Unblooded Lunar or take care of the Chimera that he has become. At first, Moonchild did not think too much of it, but after communicating with Salamander, an ally and sometime partner who keeps a residence in Nexus, he new that fate had played its hand and his time was up. He now travels quickly to perform his duty and to fulfill his destiny. But he doesn't like it.

==Personality==
Moonchild is a hard-case, he doesn't like anyone or anything. If you gain his respect, though, you will have a loyal and true ally. He believes that the best way to overcome an enemy is to know your enemy by taking on their form.
