Palace was the Alpha male of the *Aspenian* pack. Determined, brave and a natural born leader, Palace, alongside his mate, Celene, was the founder of the Aspenians, the pack that would ultimately change Yellowstone's ways.

## Backstory

Palace, the son of two Alphas, was the youngest of a liter of 3 that consisted of his two older sisters, Freya and Helga, and himself. He was born into a small, obscure pack called *"The Cresents"*, that had inhabited the Saddle Creek regions, before the unfortunate death of his father caused a split between the pack.

**Before forming the Aspenians:**

Being the youngest pup and the sole' son of his Alpha parents, Ubba and Octavia, Palace was groomed out to be the successor of his older sister, Freya, whom the pack seemed to regard as a better fit for future alpha due to her warrior-like nature and experience, compared to the younger Palace who was a mere pup at the time. His second oldest sister, Helga, was born blind and spent her days as an Omega, as this was viewed as a weak' quality to possess in a pack where both of your parents were alphas. At an extremely young age, Palace's mother, Octavia's life was taken by humans due to their ravenous hunting acts. For the most part, Palace lived out his younger years, tracing after his father's ways, Ubba, whom led the pack with his heart rather than his head and also training with the older Zetas as well as his sister, who taught him with force. Palace was also much closer to his blind' sister, Helga, as she provided him with spiritual and motivational wisdom than no one in his pack was able to provide him with. Palace would grow up with tales about humans and their ways as his mother's death was caused by them, though this did not stop him from his ambitious and exploring nature, as Palace was rarely ever seen near the densite during his first year of life.

**Forming his first pack, The Saddle Pack:**

After both, his father and sister, Helga, fell ill the same year, The Cresents would eventually begin to split as his heartbroken sister, Freya would pursue a mate and left to form a pack of her own. A young Palace, alongside two to four younger wolves of the remainder of what was once The Crescents would leave off on their own to claim a new territory up north of the Saddle Creek region as larger and much more powerful packs' would begin to claim lands all around them. Palace would then be crowned as the new alpha of his tiny pack, putting his many years of training, learning and education as an alpha's son to test. For months, Palace's pack would be ravaged and constantly found themselves in bitter conflicts with other threatening packs. However, this did not stop Palace from backing down from fights, as his ambitious and cunning nature would help peak him out to be the leader and conqueror that he was born to become, thus earning him respect. Palace's now thriving pack would eventually attract loners of all kinds, including his future mate, Celene, whom he fell madly in love with. He would appoint her as his Delta, though not before long, appoint her as his Alpha Female, as the two became mates and would later become the powerful alphas that they are. Palace's thirst for adventure and exploration would kick in habitually, as he would solo travel to distant lands, often leaving his love, Cel, to rule the pack in his absence. Once Palace returned from one of his adventures in the east, he would make it the pack's main goal to migrate and claim a different territory where food, widespread land and water was plentiful and threats were at a low. Before their journey, they would stumble across a lone male wolf, Reinhardt, who would join the pack as a Beta and a Zeta and become their most trustworthy and strongest packmate and also Palace's best friend and right hand man, making them an unstoppable duo.

**Forming the Aspenians:**

Once eliminating all threats in their way, claiming Aspen and eventually the Bison and Slough regions of the eastlands, the powerful Aspenians pack was formed. Ruling with might, nobility and valiance, the Aspenians would then end up to be one of the most successful and strongest conquering packs in the east, as more wolves would join, strengthening the bond and strength of the Aspenians. Palace and Celene had their first liter of pups, Aleu and Baya, though their daughter, Baya's life was short-lived as she fell to mother nature's grasp too soon. Aleu would be groomed to be Palace and Celene's successor, though things would take a turn as their son turn out to be much more different than they anticipated him to become. Celene and Palace would then have a second liter of pups, King and Eri, whom they regard as a second chance at parenthood, bringing them only but closer to one another.

### Description

Palace is depicted as a dark coated, charcoal and brown creamed massive sire with stunning hazel eyes. Being both brain and brawn, Palace earns the respect of his older packmates and newer packmates with ease as a superior and charismatic leader. He is extremely protective, courageous and brave when it comes to his pack and family's safety and puts them first no matter what cost. He is also usually seen to be quite the comedic, as he would often joke with packmates, especially his close friend, Rein, and lovingly tease his mate, Celene. But most all, Palace is seen to be an ambitious dreamer, constantly hungry for claiming a better and joyful life for himself and the Aspenians.
