Theft: If you fight Alopekos and lose he may steal one of your character's belongings it can be anything from a memento item, to your character's weapon, to an article of clothing. In extreme cases he may take a body part such as a finger or an ear. Theft may result in a forced character redesign.
Cockroach Brand: If you lose a fight with the Fox he might leave a scar on your character's body in the form of the Gokiburi-Gumi symbol. These scars are usually made with Alopeko's GG coin and are burned into the flesh somewhere visible as a mark of shame.
Children: Alopekos will not fight children. However, he will participate in training and sparing matches as long as the child character isn't hurt.
Brief history and Description: Alopekos is a foreigner from Greece. He gained infamy in the region of Thebes, earning the reputation of the mythical Teumessian Fox. Alopekos took great pride in his infamy as an uncatchable thief until one day he was forced to flee Greece. Some say it's becuase of some disaster from angering the gods, others say he just got bored and wanted a change of scenery, others say he was chased out by a hunter. He followed the Eastern Trade routes through Persia, India and China, leaving a trail of infamy in his wake, until he finally settled in Edo. Before leaving Greece he stole one last memento, the famed spear Lycurgus(The Deed of the Wolf), which was famed to have mystical powers.
In Japan he continued his ways until he came into contact with the Gokiburi-gumi. Normally living and working only for himself and the occasional commissioner, even stealing from other crime families and thieves guilds it seemed odd for Alopekos to change his ways now. The clan's leader, the young Ree, caught his attention. He will often disregard other clan members and take orders directly from Ree or Lilith, oddly eager to please the child. Villagers often refer to him as a monster or a demon, which is why they believe he hides behind a mask.
Alopekos is broody in personality and often acts more like an animal than a human. He is has foul attitude and a short temper, if he doesn't like you, he won't hesitate to snap your neck. Alopekos is normally silent unless it is necessary that he speaks. His voice is very deep and gruff, he is known for making growling noises and animal like grunts as well. He always seems tense and there is an odd lonely feeling about him, like someone subject to burdens or pains. He is superstitious and will often wander off to "talk to spirts". Incompetence disgusts him, and he has a bad habit of killing his own subordinates out of dis-satisfactionIf a member of the GG loses more than five fights in a row Pekos will go after them %D.
Alopekos seems to have an odd affinity for children and will go out of his way not to hurt them or even show them kindness despite being talked about as a sort of bogeyman by their parents. "Go to sleep or the demon fox will devour you. "He is oddly much more relaxed around children, he will even let them get away with bothering him and calling him "Pekos" or "Mr. Fox". Would do anything for Ree and Lilith and fiercely competes with other clan members for favor, by stealing more and more extravagant things to try and please his Oyabun.
Edit(contentadded)
Not long after his joining of the Gokiburi-Gumi another mysterious masked figure appeared at his side, quickly ascending through the ranks of various henchmen. This figure has come to be Pekos's right hand man [link]

"Alopekos is (C) to me "
I'm sorry but I don't think you can do that... you've pretty much just copied the original Greek tale written by Homer of the Alopekos Teumesia. Thats kinda the same as if I drew a picture of a dog version of Zeus, said he liked pizza, and claimed the copyright on the name.
PS: I like the picture, but hoped for a picture of the real Alopekos

Also, I wasn't aware that Homer ever wrote anything on Tuemessian Fox, but the 'tale' itself has no singular source, it's more of a folklore than anything [link]
And... I'm still not saying I own the folklore. Just this character I based on a mythological creature.

I didn't say I owned the greek myth. Just this design of THIS character which I based on the myth; just as Akira Toriyama owns the rights to Goku a character based on the Monkey King. The description itself is also different, I don't ever recall the Mythological monster ever being a ninja or fleeing to Japan.
I'm in no way claiming the myth as my own

Nice use of greek mythology. I always thought that the Teumessian Fox was a rather unnkown myth. Did you plan on doing anything with the part about the dog, Laelaps, being set upon him?

Yes I was actually, you'll have to wait for that part of the story to develop more.
I'm a fan of the lesser known greek myth o 3o

Aw, guess I'll have to wait.
Lesser known myths are great, and not just because they haven't been butchered up ten million times, but I only knew about this one, because I was researching the children Typhon and Echidna. Some people suggest that the Teumessian Fox was one of them.

I actually based him off of Greek and Japanese designs, though a little India and Persia, though I can see how Egypt could creep in there. Thankee for your comment!

I like Alopekos' design and his story, it was a fun read. :3 Your character caught my eye when I was going through the league's journals.
The colouring on him is nice, with the red and all.

It came out really nice. The darkness actually adds to the colors that there are.
The character design is completely original, as far as I can see, and I look forward to reading your battles.
Good luck!
