Skot

Pronunciation: SKOTT (rhymes with hot, shot)

Lifemate of Pike and Krim
Lovemate of Shenshen
Father of Cheipar and Sust

Skot is Go-Back attitude personified. Irreverent and a fearless fighter, his biggest fear is to be left out of a good tussle. Skot truly lives in the moment, perhaps more so than even the Wolfriders.

He and his fellow Go-Back Krim joined the Wolfriders and headed south after the Elf-Troll War for the Palace of the High Ones. Over the years, his bond with Krim and the Wolfrider Pike deepened, and the three of them became lifemates. Together, they gave birth to a male cub named Cheipar (who, sadly, did not survive infancy) and later to another son, Sust.

Skot considered Wolfrider elders such as Strongbow and Moonshade to be near-High Ones. He didn’t always fully understand or live by the Wolfriders’ Way (and often got himself in trouble for it) but like all Go-Backs he respected his elders. During the battle with the human warlord Grohmul Djun, Skot went on a dangerous mission to save Clearbrook and Treestump from a pack of Winnowill’s magically-mutated peace hounds. Holding the monsters off while the elders escaped, Skot slew the peace hound pack leader, but was himself killed in the collapse of a blazing drawbridge.

While the Wolfriders mourned him, Skot considered the demise of physical body to be his crowning achievement. He now resides in the Palace in spirit form, occasionally emerging from the collective spirit pool to rabble rouse and play pranks on the living elves of the Palace.
