Brief Description:

Fox is a very calm person. He tries his hardest not to overreact to anything, or to get angry when he shouldn't. Unfortunately, though, he has a temper, as much as he hates to admit it; if he gets angry, he gets angry, and he is fiercely protective of those he dubs family or friends.

He attatches to people easily, despite the solitary nature most real life foxes take. He truly seems to have a pack mentality going in his mind; he needs to be around people, needs to be able to talk to people, or he becomes uncomfortable and slightly depressed.

Fox has an inquisitive mind, partly why he's a scientist now; he feels a need to know things and to figure anything he doesn't know out.

Brief History:

Renard Jamesovitch Rudakov was born to James and Vixy Rudakov in a small town in Russia twenty-eight years ago, soon to become the oldest of six children. He had a happy childhood, even if he was bitter some of the time; he loved his father, and was obviously his father's favorite, but James had a job in the Russian military and was often away from home. When he was home, a lot of his military buddies hung around him. Fox grew up seeing people like Pigma and Peppy daily.

His powers manifested, like most genetic powers do, when he hit puberty, at around age twelve. They were an almost identicle copy to James's own; both were foxes, Fox was just a lighter orange then James was.

It was when he was young he found his love for science. For the longest time, he had been acting out at school-- trying to get attention from his father. But as soon as he took his first biology class, he almost immediately calmed down; he had found what he wanted to do. He began researching it outside of school, his young mind soaking up every fact he found like a sponge. It was no wonder he grew up to be a field researcher.

And then, when he was twenty...

There was a horrible accident while his father's troupe was out. There was an explosion, and many in the group died... including James Rudakov. Peppy, James's best friend, was in a coma and hospitalized. Fox was devastated; he immediately returned to his hometown from the place in South America that he had been sent to.

After attending the funeral, he visited Peppy in the hospital, just after the man had woken up. Peppy revealed exactly what had happened the day of the explosion. It had been Pigma that had set it off, Pigma who had allowed so many people's deaths.

Fox was furious, and out for blood. He tracked Pigma down.

There was a confrontation, and then Pigma began to taunt Fox, to say things the young man just couldn't forgive. Fox pulled out a hunting knife and, in a rage, stabbed Pigma. After he came to his senses, he was horrified with what he'd done; he ran like hell, leaving Pigma for dead.

He immigrated to the United States to try and get away, fearful for his life. But it wasn't long before the Antidote found him in the US, and, since he was now a citizen of the country, threw him into Adanac.

Anything Else: May or may not have actually killed Pigma, but is thoroughly convinced that he did.
