Ethan

Ethan Silvermoon is the second son of Alpha Raymond Silvermoon alpha of the spirit mountain pack in Nevada. For generations the spirit mountain pack has put their main focus on being the strongest pack in the country. It has become tradition that the alpha rules with an iron fist. Frequent and grueling training sessions were required for all packs members starting at age 5. The training started out easy focusing on defensive and conditioning techniques. The training would steadily become more difficult with each passing year. On top of everything else only behavior that the alpha deemed acceptable was allowed, there was no drama allowed and anyone who made a scene or did anything the alpha saw as embarrassing was punished severely. At times Ethan felt like his father saw life as all business all the time and fun wasn't allowed.

Ethan never agreed with that perspective; he enjoyed playing games and simply being a kid. He played pranks and acted reckless which didn't sit well with his father. Though his father never scolded or punished him directly. He always sent his beta to deal with his son which caused Ethan to feel even less important to his father. This caused Ethan to act out even more making it so his father had to come with more creative punishments.

Being the second son meant that his father never made time for him nor did he make an effort to know anything about Ethan's life and interests. Since Ethan wasn't going to be taking the title so his father saw him as less important.

Even though his father saw him as less than he still wanted him to participate in alpha training. His reasoning was that if Ethan's brother were to be killed or was severely injured in battle Ethan could take over and run things either until his brother healed or his brother's heir came of age. Ethan was basically a stand in should anything happen.

Ethan wasn't having any of it. His father treated him like he was nothing, just a replacement in case he lost his precious first born son. Ethan spent his life rebelling in every way he could think of. He was met with extra training sessions each harsher than the last and all were administered by his father's beta. Ethan saw more of his father's beta than he did his father.. Ethan's father has even gone as far as to throw his own son in the dungeon for days at a time to remove his rebellious nature. It never worked. His father went as far as forbidding Ethan to eat meals with his family, his father hardly wanted to be in the same room as him.

Ethan always managed to hold onto his light-hearted, kind, witty and playful nature and continued to forge his own path far from his father's.

Wanting to punish his son Raymond decided to send his son away to the new moon academy. There he hopes his son would learn discipline and obedience through

exile.
