Okay. It seems stupid, yes. But hear me out! It could be fun if you think about it!
ALSO, PLEASE NOTE, I live in Texas, snow and sledding are foreign to me basically, even if we do get the occasional snow and ice. So please feel free to sprinkle info on me!

In the dangers of snowy Alaska, there are towns, small ones, where humans and dogs live. But, some dogs are quick, and run through the dangers for mail, even just races!

Still sound stupid? Well, what if I said you didn't have to roleplay a sled dog? You can be the leader of a team! You don't have to though- You could be a fan of races! You could even make the sleds that the sled dogs run with!

Rules!
-Hate the character, not the person
-All Lioden rules apply!
-Be nice, please do not start fights.
-If you wanna start your own team, go ahead!
-You can do recreational sledding, hide lead chihuahua in your character sheet to prove you read rules, you don't have to race or deliver the mail!
-Don't make your dog a freaking lead Chihuahua I will call you out on this
-Oh my god no godmodding
-Please source your image if you use one!
-It isn't required but you can use a tag if you have more then one character!
If you break the rules. You get two chances, a temporary outing, and then a ban from roleplaying in this roleplay.

Info-
Looky! A sled dog FAQ where I got most of my info!
http://www.srlee.net/FAQs/sleddog_FAQ.html

What breed for a sled team?!
A bigger dog with enough height to get through the snow, and over 35 pounds! So no miniature poodles!

How many dogs in a team?
2 or more! Though, you can use one, but it's not preferred for races and mail!

Now! There are base teams if you don't wanna make your own team or be in other sled teams!

Ah, okay! :3 May I reserve a wheel dog for the mail team? Wheel dogs on a sled team are basically the bulk. They are right in front of the sled, so they carry most of the weight and are usually (kinda have to be) the strongest and largest.

Kye
JCco8dz.png?1
"Now I've got thicker skin. I'm a warrior, I'm stronger than I've ever been and my armor is made of steel, you can't get in. I'm a warrior and you can never hurt me."

GENDER
Masculine

AGE
3 years, 2 months

BREED
Alaskan Malamute (90%) x Gray Wolf (10%)

TYPE OF TEAM
Mail

POSITION IN TEAM
Wheel Dog

LOOKS
A fearsome, yet attractive, Alaskan Malamute with fur of a variety of color, including; many shades of gray, black, brown, and white. His underfur is mainly white, with a little bit of both dark and light gray added in some parts, his feet pure white. His back is a dark gray, nearly black, that gets just a bit lighter as it goes down to his shoulders and hindquarters. His tail starts out as a dark gray, but soon turns into a lighter shade of creamish-brown before becoming a black at his tail tip, the underfur of his tail still remaining white as the rest of his underfur on his body does. His face is mainly white, with a few gray under his eyes, and the top of his head is a dark gray, his ears pure black in relation to the rest of his body, while the insides of his ears are white and his nose is pitch black. The physical build of this malamute is compact and strong with substance, bone and snowshoe feet. Along with this, the fearsome brute has intimidating, yet captivating, yellow eyes that are yellow as a result of his wolf heritage, that intensely stare at others as if he's staring into their soul. A gaze so intimidating that, if one was to keep contact with him, one's gaze would soon avert away from the unfriendly stare.

Standing at a fearsome 32 inches (at the shoulder) and weighing at a startling 100 pounds (most of it muscle), Kye is certainly larger than most, if not all, of the wolves in both of the packs, and is typically a beast of a male, with an immense amount of strength, alike that of his cruel father before him. He has rippling muscles like stone to the touch, earned from violent and rather aggressive training as a younger, and the large quantity of fights he has fought in his lifetime. Due to his size and intimidating figure, Kye is a malamute known to strike fear into others with his fearsome appearance, and is a bit infamous amongst the others; he is known to be strategic, intelligent, powerful, and a bit merciless (to some). But still, he has his weaknesses, including fire. Experiencing a fire incident as a slightly younger dog, Kye now fears fire and won't have anything to do with it. But he's still powerful nonetheless, with long, saber-like teeth (not actually that saber-like, just longer than normal) that are extremely sharp, placed in a powerful jaw that can strongly use them to bite with an intent to kill.

This broad-shouldered male has many scars on his body from the many battles he has fought and the rough terrains he has trekked, including one down in between his eyes from his mortal enemy [OPEN], a long one down/across the left side of his neck, three faint claw marks on his left back leg, and a small, yet noticeable one across his dorsal bridge (nose). As said before, Hades experienced a fire incident when he was around a year old, and has a scar to tell the tale; burn marks show on his underbelly, as well as on the bottom of his paws, though the scars don't hurt anymore. The fighter also has many other various scars on his pelt, but none as significant as the ones mentioned before. Plus a good amount of his scars, and muscles, are hidden beneath his fur. But not all, of course, still many show on his pitch black coat. Despite all the scars Hades wears, the brute is still an attractive malamute, though he does appear as a fearsome and intimidating brute- his fur, scars, teeth, piercing eyes, and his massive, muscular body all making this so.

PERSONALITY
Living a life tainted by loss, Kye is very aggressive, an intimidating and impressive fighter, with a personality alike to that of an army general. Tough and merciless, he's not one to show any sign of mercy or submissiveness. If he has a legitimate reason, this fearless brute will take on any opponent and will rush into a fight, though his strength and size is very helpful. Lacking fear overall, there is but one thing he does fear; losing someone he loves. Whether it be romantic, friend-wise, or family-wise, this brute fears he'll lose whoever he cares for. Therefore, he's incredibly protective and would do anything for a loved one. Given his slightly short temper, Kye is a very quick-to-fight brute and, due to his large size and strength, he can almost always cause damage on another if he attacks. He's very aggressive and is very likely to attack if he has a reason, quick to jump with claws out and teeth bared if he or someone he cares for is injured, insulted, threatened, or hurt at all, often causing damage on his opponent. Despite all this, he's an extremely loyal individual and, once he's committed to someone or something (a pack, or loved one), nothing can keep him from remaining loyal and devoted to them.

Kye is also very un-trusting and reserved, and it takes a long time and a lot of effort for someone to enter this male's heart. Although this is true, if someone does manage to break through the stone surrounding his cold heart, Kye is one of the most passionate and devoted males out there, able to hold those dear to him very close. And even though his rather reserved and cold personality can push away the females, he can be quite charming if he so wishes, and if he does ever find a mate, he'd be interested in having pups, once he settles down from sled life -which could be never.

NOTABLE RELATIONSHIPS
Family;
~ Xerxes [Father - Hate] [Deceased; killed by Kye]
~ Lilith [Mother - Love / Grief] [Deceased; killed by Xerxes]
~ Ajax, Violet, Ghost [Other siblings] [Deceased; killed by Xerxes]
~ Vivian [Little Sister - Love / Protects] [Alive] [ Rin (#2458) ]

Romantic;
~ Crush: Mizuki [Swing Dog] [ β˜ͺRirie (#91514) ]

Other;
~ Best Friend: Open
~ Enemy: Open (can be more than one, I have a small plot >:3)

VIEWS
( Keep in mind, these are my character's views, not mine. Do not get mad at me for a view my character holds against one of yours. And also, none of your characters should be aware of what my character thinks of them. )

Will be updated as he interacts with characters :3

Name
Kodiak

Responds to
Kodiak
Kodi
KoKo

Breed
Alaskan Malamute (50%)
Siberian Husky (50%)

Position in team
Lead dog

Age
3 years

Height & Weight
27in
55Ib

Personality
Kodiak is still fairly young, but she is the most dominate dog on her sledding team. Though it is rare that she ever turns agressive on any of her sled mates, as she cares very much for each of them. Kodiak is a natural born leader, determined from birth to be ahead of her litter mates.

Kodiak is a quick thinker, able to make decisions in a split second, a trait and quality that makes for a good lead dog. Clever as she is, it can also get her into mischief when not racing. Kodiak has a knack for being a little escape artist.

She has a heart of gold, affectionate and loyal. Kodi loves her slender, as well as teammates and tried to keep a strong bond with them. As they do work together and it is important to keep on good terms with those on your team. After all there is no "I" in team.

History
Kodiak is the product of two great racing dogs. Her mother was a Siberian Husky and her father and Alaskan Malamute. They were bred together in hopes that the pups would carry attributes from both breeds. However the only one who seemed to have any interest in sledding was Kodiak. Therefore she wouls begin her training at a young age, at first it was just small thing such as getting used to the harness, then onto pulling small objects and weights, until finally she was able to run along side her parents. Kodi proved herself at a young age to have a dominate personality, taking lead over her siblings and eventually her parents. Proving that both her stamina and speed, made her fit for lead dog.

Personality
Mercy is a very friendly person, and enjoys her job delivering the mail. It gives her the opportunity to combine both meeting and talking with people, and sledding with her mail team.

Around three or maybe four of them for racing, one for mail, and unlimited for recreational purposes. I actually got inspiration from watching all three Balto movies in a row, shoot me, not lying'.
