Pups

## The Pups

The **Pup Family** (better known as **the Pups**) are a family of magically powerful canines who rule over the kingdom of EverRealm. They reside in a colossal castle known as the Pup Palace which is located in Chillrock, the capital of EverRealm.

For centuries, the Pups have used their abilities to help, protect and strengthen the balance of EverRealm and the universe. The family is currently under the authority of Robert and Giselle, the current matriarch and patriarch of the Pups.

## Background

When the planet was created by the Gods of Mount Olympus, EverRealm was set in prehistoric time. Before a monarchy was established, the planet was led by Dhark, the first Pup ancestor who protected his people from the unknown dangers that lurked within the kingdom. Although Dhark was beloved by his people, he felt lonely and wanted someone to share his life with. One day, while searching for food, Dhark heard the sound of a woman in distress. He went to inspect it and discovered a female cave dog who was battling an insect-like creature. Dhark lended a helping hand by scaring the monster away.

Dhark was then introduced to Floran, whom he was enchanted by her beauty. She explains to Dhark that she was searching for the elementals, a team of deities who keep the natural elements (Earth, Air, Fire, Water) in order. She had a dream last night about the planet's future being nothing but chaos. Floran feels that the elementals can help prevent that from happening. Since it is his responsibility to protect EverRealm, Dhark offered to tag along with Floran which she happily agreed.

Floran's tracking and Dhark's fighting skills allowed the cave dogs to find the spirits' hideout, a volcano. The council gives the cave dogs a vision about EverRealm's future. The vision shows that if the planet is imbued with magic, the citizens won't survive another year. Dhark didn't know what to do but knew that he has to inform his people of the news. Floran offered to stand by a nervous Dhark's side, having been inspired by his bravery.

Dhark and Floran return to the central point of the planet with the elementals by their side. He explains the vision to the citizens and promises to do everything in his power to protect his subjects. Dhark's words "You won't have to worry about facing danger alone, we'll be there for each other as a family." These words summoned the Greek Gods. Zeus was touched by Dhark's determination and decided to not only reward him with a rocky version of the Pup Palace but a magical atmosphere for the EverRealmians to live in. The magical atmosphere graced the people with various powers to protect and benefit themselves. Dhark was blessed with construction control and Floran was given dream precognition.

Having grown close to each other, Dhark and Floran married and started a family of two. From there, Dhark decided to bless his descendants with magic when they all turn eight years old. Four more rulers took the throne as EverRealm's sovereign when it was time for Dhark and Floran to ascend to the Spirit Realm.

Since the birth of Toog and Igla, every child born into the Pup family was blessed with magic by the gods. Adopted children or children from a member's previous marriage would still be blessed with magic because Dhark believed that love and unity is what makes the family strong, not blood.

### Blessing Ceremony

Pup children are gifted with magic on their eighth birthday, an age where the child understands the responsibilities of having magic and that it must used for the benefit of others and not for selfish reasons. A large celebration is held in the capital and royalties from all over the planet are invited to celebrate the occasion. The party will go on for hours until 9 PM. Before that time, the child is baptized by Blackmane, the bishop. Zeus and his family would arrive and the reigning monarch would give a speech. The child comes down to the throne room when Zeus calls the child's name. The child will then promise to use their power for good and not evil. Zeus would then ask the child what they want to use their power for. The answer would either to help protect the kingdom or to make their family proud.

Zeus would then place his hand on the child's head, blessing the child with magic. The child would discover their new ability by performing a spell. With their new power, the Pup can expand their room so they can practice their power in peace. It is also family tradition for the Pup to take a picture in front of the throne room with their parents standing proudly on the right and with Zeus and Hera on the left side. The photo is later displayed in the grand hall categorized as a family tree.

## Appearances

### The Enchanted Pup

In the present day, the family was what Adam described as broken. Blacktail and Dalila were deceased, Sebastian left the palace and Robert and his family left the kingdom. Bloodmoon, Luna, Burnskin, Blackmane, Adam, Karen, Timmy, Ace, Runt, Abigail and Martin were the only Pup family members who remained in the palace. With Wolfgang as the new king, he had authority over the Pups and his authority over them prohibited them from acting against him. Adam and Burnskin were one of the members who hated Wolfgang and his unjust law over the planet. Since magic was forbidden in the palace, Adam and his siblings snuck out of the palace where they would practice magic in the Windy Holm, a cave for exiled EverRealmians to practice magic without fear of persecution. Unknown to the family, Wolfgang was plotting to abdicate the throne and take over Mount Olympus. Conquering Mt. Olympus as its new king would instill himself as the ruler of the universe. It would also grant him control over the forces of nature on all the planets, including EverRealm. His first act was ruler of the universe would be to drain all the magic from EverRealm, which would result in the EverRealmians becoming powerless and the planet's eventual destruction as the magic is what keeps planet alive.

On the thirteenth year of Wolfgang's rule, Hansel and his siblings are brought to EverRealm to uncover secrets about the family's ancestry. Wolfgang is the first one to notice Hansel's arrival and recognizes the Snow Dog as his nephew, whom he thought he killed years ago. Fearing that Hansel could be a threat to his plan, he consults his precognition potions to see what will happen if Hansel stays in the kingdom. If Hansel continues to dig deeper into the family's history, his plan will not only fail but he will destroyed. To prevent this, Wolfgang makes it his mission to have Hansel killed. Meanwhile, Hansel befriended the Oceanmanes, unaware they're his cousins. They offer to tag along with Hansel on his journey to find the elementals who hold the truth to EverRealm's history. The gang starts their adventure the following day and has to avoid capture from Wolfgang when the Twin Paw leader, Jordan defects to Hansel's side after the Enchanted Pup saves him from certain death. Wolfgang eventually catches up to the Pups and throws Hansel off the cliff to his demise and takes the Oceanmanes back to the palace to be imprisoned.

Hansel survived the fall thanks to Buzzy and Bradley, Harrison's son and the trio continues their mission to find the elementals. They arrive at the Gold Volcano and meet the elementals where one of them is Bradley's long-lost mother. The council reveals to Hansel that Wolfgang is responsible for Blacktail and Dalila's deaths and his familial connection between Wolfgang and the Oceanmanes. Because of Wolfgang's violent nature, Sebastian (who ran away after Wolfgang blamed him for his parents' murder), Robert and his family ran away to avoid suffering his wrath. Giselle, who was terrified for her children's lives, she used her magic to alter their memories so they wouldn't develop the curiosity to go back to EverRealm. Now knowing the truth about everything, Hansel recruits the council to fight against Wolfgang and save the universe. Through the combined forces of the Pups' magic, Wolfgang and his demonic army is defeated and the universe is saved. With Wolfgang gone for good, Robert and Giselle return home where they reunite with the Pups. Hansel becomes the new king of EverRealm and his first act of king is abolishing the anti-magic law, thus allowing the people of EverRealm to use magic now and forever. Thanks to Hansel, the family is brought back together and are happier and closer than they were before.

In the beginning of the film, it comes time for Ralph's blessing and the family prepares the castle for the event. Kirby is the only member who is apprehensive about the event since it's the first blessing ceremony since Wolfgang's defeat. Fortunately, the ceremony is successful and Ralph is blessed with magic. During Hansel's journey through the village kingdom, Woolsville, he later discovers that his new friend, Brodi is his cousin as he's the son of his father's long lost brother, Eddie.
