Richard Canfield

Richard Canfield is a Blood Talon Rahu member of the Silver Syndicate Pack in Colorado.

Background

Richard Canfield is short, almost skinny in Hishu form, and has a receding hairline. That doesn't stop him from being as dangerous a Blood Talon Rahu as any larger brute. Luna knew he had the heart of a warrior, even if his body didn't match the ideal. A Rahu is a leader as well as a killer, and that is where Cannon's Fire excelled. He was fascinated with war from the time he was a small child. He played war games instead of baseball. He read about famous battles, and memorized facts about Erwin Rommel and Sun Tzu instead of supermodels or sports stars. He rarely got picked for teams in gym class, until a perceptive classmate noticed that he was always in the perfect position to pull off plays. While he was no physical marvel, he was tough enough to keep up with players a foot taller and 50 pounds heavier than him.

Richard intended to join the Army after high school, but as he notes, Luna picked a different path for him. Unlike his classmates in school, the Blood Talons recognized his talents and put him to work. His clever plans and quick thinking didn't save his first pack from Gurdilag's minions, however. For a time, Richard despaired. The eventual victory over Gurdilag tasted like ashes. But Max Roman came to him and offered him a new family.

Cannon's Fire fits well into the Silver Syndicate. His tactical know-how helped forge the survivors of Roman's original pack and the new members assembled after the war into a force that will likely outshine its already considerable reputation. His only regret is that there are not more battles to fight, as Roman's work to make peace has neglected more active work on the front. It isn't as though the enemies aren't out there, after all.
