Slim but fit(military build)
Born in Maine (new England, anywhere there is fine) no accent, fully American, white European decent.
Heritage-From England/Europe

White(England/Europe) , blue eyes, black hair, somewhat spiky hair, 2 tuffs on the top of his hair “look like dog ears”(only for stylistic purposes, he’s not a dog or werewolf)

History: The Hound family comes from a long line of dog handlers and breeders. It is said that they bred and sold the best and smartest breeds in all of Europe and the in the early United states. Their dogs are and were famously bred for their uses of fighting and finding supernatural creatures, having been used all over Europe and the early US to hunt down monsters of all kinds. Caleb was the middle child of the current family, having one older and one younger brother. His parents raised them well having both a loving mother and father in addition to many maids and servants of the estate. Cabel seeing that one of his brothers was continuing the family’s legacy of breeding dogs decided to enlist into the military and hopefully become their top dog handler, having gotten himself into the west point military academy. Upon the annule family reunion and gathering he found himself picking up the families sire dog(the main dog) from the groomers when tragedy struck. A explosion of unknowing origin had killed his family and left him the last of his lineage. He wallowed in his now empty childhood estate alone with nothing but the family dogs for his company. He was lost on what to do and how to save his family’s name and lineage, until he heard about the ritual in new York…..
Lore: Caleb hound found himself to be the last of his lineage after the mysterious and sudden death of his parents and brothers. Their sudden death happen so fast and so quickly, a family gathering gone wrong. He was only spared do to him picking up the family dogs form one of the families groomers. Caleb wanting answers and looking for direction has come to new York on the scent of what he thinks could be the answer. He finds himself fighting for the patrons to get his answers. His loyal dog with him all the way though.
Goals: He wants a few things, answers on who or what killed his family. He wants to know how to continue and save his lineage(example: finding a wife), how to save his families legacy of breeding and training dogs, etc.
His Dog: Names: rex, knox. Rook, atlas, Gideon, silas, vesper. (vesper is my fav)
Gun: rifle of some sort. Winchester, long rifle, Remington, carbine, something like that or a shotgun of some sort

Abilities
- “Maul” your dog bites in a area in front of you dealing damage and slowing them.
- Teirs:1. Cooldown 2. damage 3. Apply heavy bleed
- “Spot” spot a enemy, you and your dog do extra damage to that character
- Tiers:1.cooldown 2. Allies now do extra damage as well 3. Spot all enemies in FOV
- (if any abilities are to be reworked it think it should be this one)
- “Sic’em” sic your dog on a enemy, the enemy is, slowed, and has stamina, either disabled or removed. The dog is attached to that enemy, and can either be shot off or heavy meleed off. If shot or hit off the dog runs and “disappears” thus going on cooldown.
- Teirs: 1.cooldown 2. Range + disable all movement abilities 3. Get ghost dog(not player controllable)
- Ult “Release the hounds” the player blows a whistle(the dog howls, you can ult while controlling the dog too) and a pack of hounds appear and start searching for enemies. 3 dogs at base, 6 at T3. Apon finding a enemy the dogs attack them much like the number 3 ability(same scaling) however in addition to this, they have their position revealed on map and are fully silenced, dealing spirit damage to them.
- Teirs: 1.cooldown and dog health 2.get 3 ghost dogs(now 6 total, 3normal 3ghost)
- 3 ghost dogs are unable to be stopped(including that of “sic’em”)
- If you hold 3 down you can take direct control of your dog, like talon bird or calico cat. Like talons bird ult, your character(the human) is still in the same spot and able to be hurt
- “Maul” same as above, same tiers
- “Pounce” do a small leap in a direction(like silvers but should not be the same)
- Teirs: 1. Cooldown 2. Distance. 3.on hit cooldown
- “Dash” get a small speed boost
- Teirs: 1.cooldown 2.speed enhance 3. Take less damage
- ULT “release the hounds” same as above but if player is controlling the dog, the ultimate procs from the dogs position and not the humans.
- Context
- This character is a control character and anti-movement character, aimed at map control and enemy targeting.
- Ghost dogs
- These are a ability level upgrade and part of the ult. These ghost dogs are not able to be meleed off or shot away. In addition to this, they are able to target flaying heroes or heroes in the air, flying or jumping, on a building etc
- Ability 2 “spot” I feel is the weakest out of all of these and most in need of a rework.
- Dog breed, up to you
- German shepherd(all around the best looking IMO, first choice), Belgian maliois, Irish wolfhound(historical, second choice)
- Interactions
- I think him(his family) and venator (or more of the Vatican) would have some history working together.
- His family historically helped the friends of humanity. I think vindicta would not like him, even though they would have never met
- The Baxter society, could have historically used his family’s dogs
- Drifter in his past likely would be used to killing his family’s dogs having been hunted for a long time
- Fun voice lines
- Seven: Federal agents are after me
- Houndmaster: who the fuck starts a conversation like that we just met!
- Vindicta near kill: ill get you, and your little dog too!
- Ill leave all balancing and any changes to abilities to you! Hope you enjoyed!
