Invincible Species Characters

Here's a guide to the characters. (BTW, when you say, 'who's Lakewood growing up with?', just wait.)

Cobra 'Kobra Kat'
Motto: 'Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the best fighter of them all?' Cobra is.
Cobra is BASICALLY the protagonist of the whole series, so he get's the most chapters through his eyes. He's a quarter Irish setter, quarter rottweiler, since his dad is an Irish setter/rottweiler mix, and half German Shepherd, his mother being a purebred. He is a four-year-old dog, making him 35 in dog years. He grew up with different dogs, not at all related to him:
Terra: Purebred Border Collie
Riley: Samoyed-malamute mix
Shark: Purebred Norwegian Elkhound
Asher: Purebred Aussie (Australian Shepherd)
Donovan: Purebred Italian Greyhound
Holmes: Karelian Bear Dog/Slovak rough-haired pointer
These dogs basically became his brothers. Cobra is a very rough, stone-hearted war/attack dog that can switch his sympathy, empathy, and emotions off and on at will. He has tons of attack-destroy experience, and many memories of human chaos he has never seen. He has the ability to look into the past before he was born, but is always wrong about the future. Yes, he does die VERY, VERY, VERY late in the series, and it makes a huge impact on the plot. NOT telling. He was bred by human ancestors to be the perfect attack dog, but escaped the horrible 'once-ling' breeding mill. That's all, folks! (:

~~~~~~
Riley 'Little Butterfly'
Motto: 'Why can't we just talk?'
Riley is the peacemaker of the group. He was previously a fighter, but his claws got broken, so he got them removed, and his teeth are blunt. He's a mix between a Samoyed and a Malamute, but acts, talks, and looks so much like a Samoyed, he is considered by everyone to be just a purebred Samoyed. He grew up with Cobra, Terra, Shark, Asher, Donovan, and Holmes. His greatest friend is Cobra, and dubbed him the title 'Kobra Kat', to tease him about the war. Cobra on several occasions has attacked him because of this. Riley falls in love with Eli's aunt, Dawn, who happens to be three days younger than him. 
~~~~~~~
Asher 'Medical Man'
Motto: 'Whaddya need?'
Asher is the medicine man of the group, along with being the oldest, at ten years old. (65 in dog years. o_O, right?) He has three pups, Eli, the youngest at three years, Ivan, the twin (four years) to Landon. Later in the story he is revealed to have a lost child, London, a young puppy who is an excellent fighter. Asher is one of the only three characters who lives to the end of the story, the others being Riley and Eli. 
~~~~~~
Eli 'Insane. Purely. Insane.'
Motto: 'Kill 'em.'
Eli, son of Asher, is probably the weirdest character. He has a great name, three fifths family (mom dead), beauty, etc. But he is mentally insane.
~~~~~~~~
That's all the main characters!

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter 
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
 by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they 
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may 
 be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my 
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?
