Personality: Donovan is a loyal guy. Incredibly, extremely, beyond loyal. He will never betray the people he's given his loyalty to. Well, within tiers. Certain people he will put over others within his tiered list of loyalty. But if he isn't put in a compromising position, and is able to stay loyal to his tiered list, he will do whatever he needs to do to remain and prove he's loyal. An overall relaxed man, he goes through life like a dog on a leash to certain people, or the one holding the leash to others. Charismatic and peaceful, his outbursts are not something that can be predicted unless you know him as well as he knows himself, if not better. His outbursts can be violent or verbal, but either way they hurt someone around him, even if he doesn't intend it. Other than that, he's a fairly easy-going guy. He's left with certain responsibilities and certain leadership expectations, but otherwise, when people aren't around him as a leader or as someone currently in charge, he's taking orders like everyone else or simply going along with everyone and everything. He's remarkably kind and gentle, and he has a true soft spot for those who need help - especially children. He does everything he can to help others. A man filled with ideas of grandeur, with very strong political and moral opinions, and a pension for eloquence, he is great at pulling people in, getting them interested, and sinking the hook to gain their loyalty. More a man who is - or was - all bark and no bite, he isn't much of a fighter and stays out of most fights. Though he can defend himself and others, he is no more than average in his skills and technique, more so used as a last line of defense than a front-line attacker. He is someone who throws himself in front of the danger for others, and he has the scars all across his body to prove it. Despite everything he's been through and is capable of, he's quick to smile, laugh, and jest. He's magnetic, pulling people into orbit around him, yet he's no brilliant schemer and mastermind, though some brilliant and creative ideas jump to mind from time to time. Able to lead perfectly well, certain personality types make him a follower. Devoted and deeply spiritual, Donovan believes in peace and unity among all. It's the best way to live, the most efficient, and is truly what he believes the Goddess wants. Part of a fanatic group, he is one of the founders for a reason.

Likes: peace, those he trusts and cares for, children, peace and unity, the Goddess, nomadic living, fun, loyalty, respect

Dislikes: disrespect, his outbursts (more so the verbal ones than the physical ones, for he doesn't want to say something he'll regret), nay-sayers, violence without cause

Powers: shifts into a lycan (looks above); heightened durability, reflexes, senses, strength, and speed while in human form; ability to feed on blood to survive (the vampire in him), small compelling abilities (nothing he can control, it just happens when he talks - normally in big dramatic or emotional flares, this ability is tied to his emotions)

Backstory: Donovan grew up in a small pack in North Carolina, but ran away at 13, and lived on his own until he met Harmony Faith Carmah when he was 16. He was always a boy with big ideas and strong opinions, which as an Omega got him into a lot of trouble. His mom was a vampire who dumped him at his father's doorstep after he was born and she was never heard from or seen again. His dad, however, was the Alpha, with a mate and kids already. Older, he hadn't expected his vampire mistress to become pregnant. Immediately he was disgusted by his hybrid son, who had zero inkling of Alpha power, and still doesn't to this day. An Omega he was made, the punching bag for his elder siblings and father, and the object of loathing from his stepmother. Though he's always resonated more deeply with his wolf side, the vampiric side had some advantages. Even young, when he'd speak or make big opinions known, people would listen. They'd agree - sometimes not knowing why - which caused discord and issues among the pack. And Donovan would suffer. Finally, at 13, he ran away, deeper into the state, and lived on the edge of a hippe-like homestead, where they treated him kindly, gave him food, and his own shelter - a tent, good for keeping out the cold, rain, and any harsh weather. Then came Harmony. By then, Donovan was well-steeped into human and supernatural politics. He never told Harmony about his supernatural life, but talked big game about making the world a peaceful place for human, animal, and all living things. He never had the ambition to follow most of his speeches through, unless Harmony did. Within the year of meeting Harmony, they lived together in Donovan's tent. Best friends and inseparable, their ideas quickly spread outside the homestead to others, and they found themselves part of a group of peers with a strong sense of justice. Harmony would get into trouble and Donovan would bail her out, like he did when she was 17. When she dropped dead on their walk back home, his heart had stopped and panic set in. He bit Harmony, a rush of lycan and vampire venom filling her system, and he prayed. He wasn't sure, given his hybrid state, if he could even change her. And she was dead, anyways. But it worked. It worked, and right then and there Donovan's world change completely. Harmony was still his Harmony, but more. So much more. He was, alongside Harmony, the founding member of The Folk. He has been by Harmony's side the entire time, literally never straying out of sight/sound since she resurrected, and is one of those who all but worships Harmony as a true extension of the Goddess on earth. There was a stretch of time where he was one of Harmony's many lovers, which lasted from his age of 22 to 25. However, that's long passed, and it didn't warp his and Harmony's relationship in the slightest, the two of them still closer than they are with anyone else, including when Donovan had a wife, a human by the name of Daria whom he never mated with, for Daria wouldn't allow it. Though divorced - due in part to his utter devotion to Harmony, who remains at the top of his tier list forever - he and Daria remain friends, and co-parent their son, a boy by the name of Devon, who is now two years old. Donovan is a permanent nomad, and Daria and Devon travel with him, though if fighting is to be involved they stay safely away in a neighboring town until all is settled. Same when politics is involved. A good dad, his son has given him more motivation than ever to change the world for the better, through whatever means Harmony deems necessary - even if Daria tries to explain the less violent way. But to Donovan, Harmony is always right.

Other: Donovan is the youngest of five; he's only one of two alive, though
His pack was the first one that Harmony and he massacred; he personally killed his siblings, step-mother, and father, except his sister Daisy who was pregnant at the time; she joined The Folk and remains with them
Donovan has never been in love with Harmony, despite what some believe and despite his insistence
He and Harmony mostly share a room, or at the very least always share the room next to one another; shared room doesn't always mean shared bed
Donovan is very unaffected by most things, good or bad, small or extreme, but sometimes he just lashes out over the smallest things, or the biggest things; Daria has a scar on her arm from him, Harmony has one of her thigh, and he sobbed for hours both times, doing everything in his power to make it up to them and atone
When he does find his mate, they will be worshipped in their own way, though they will also have to compete with Harmony in varying ways if they aren't as devoted to her as Donovan is
