Biography
Axolotl was a scrappy little six month old cub when he dispersed with his older sister Ixchel, and littermate Cipactli from their natal pack and joined Riptide Corten’s ranks in October 2014. He nearly drowned en route to Vargas Island but was rescued by Tarnish, the alpha female Kirynnae’s littermate. When Riptide was gravely injured the following summer, Tarnish rose to leadership as the pack’s beta male. Riptide’s son Undertow challenged Tarnish for the alpha rank and lost. Shortly afterward, Undertow left to find and bring Crosscurrent home.
When Crosscurrent returned in early July 2015, Tarnish challenged him immediately. The older male was weakened from the injuries he’d sustained during his fight with Undertow and wanted to assert his dominance while Crosscurrent was still travel-weary. When Crosscurrent won, Tarnish left Vargas Island along with Riptide’s younger sister and several young wolves who bore no blood relation to Corten’s descendants. He staked his own claim on the neighboring Meares Island.
Ixchel, Cipactli and Axolotl were among the band who followed Tarnish, and though they initially feared a rift would grow between them and their erstwhile pack brothers and sisters, the Vargas Island and Meares Island Cortens remained close allies.
