About Agni
Much like the Svaha's inner workings and current status, much of Agni's past is unknown to everyone but himself and he prefers to keep it that way, as a true Svaha would. It isn't clear what rank his parents were, but his disposition hints at the higher ranks though he leaves his personal history a mystery. His reason for leaving is likewise his own, but it could be explained that he desired to not spend his life in one small patch of land.
Agni only recently appeared in the region, specifically in and around the rainforest where he has been the subject of a few survivor's stories, though without a name. Some say he is a guardian, others say he is a menace. And others don't know what to think. What remains to be seen of Agni is to be determined in the future. Where will he go? Who is he? Why is he here? What is he like, personally? These things can only be answered by encountering him. The only certainty is the history of his pack is the basis of who he might be.

About the Svaha
The Svaha formerly lived within the region affected by the war with the Clan, having formed 7 generations ago. They were distinct among the several wolf groups for not cooperating or sharing in the affairs belonging to the Saahasi and its retinue, and did not care to involve themselves in other wolf pack problems. Despite this, they were known at the time to be fierce fighters and hunters that either benefited or hampered the occasional passerby. Their small number of ranks were mostly comprised of unrelated individuals coming in and out of the group until 3 generations in, when a founding pair began the line that continued up to Agni's birth.
The pack's habits were stiff, unbending, and very non-negotiable. They would not help other wolf packs in any way, shape or form and likewise never asked for assistance, nor gave or received news. Their members never courted and did not tolerate being courted by wolves outside their own, relying solely on rogues or their own selves for mating purposes.
When The Clan began dominating the region, it did not go by unnoticed from the Svaha perspective. When the call to form a resistance against The Clan was made, the pack gained notoriety by making it clear they wanted no part in the conflict. When a messenger sent to them, it was sent back after being horribly maimed, and made to carry the message for them that not only would they not support the resistance but likewise would not support The Clan. The philosophy behind this was that if message of their decision to not get involved was to reach The Clan, then it could do so via the ones fighting them instead of endangering their own members. As the messenger to the other packs returned to his own pack, delayed by the wounds inflicted, the Svaha evacuated the area, never to return.
The inner workings of the Svaha were never opened for outsiders to see, but anyone who visted their former territory after the evacuation was often confronted by unexplainable whispers and discomfort when walking on their lands. While they are plentiful, particularly the old den areas, nobody has desire to claim the land because of the reported hauntings that are said to drive weaker animals insane. While such things are very hard to prove, some say it is punishment for daring to ask for their assistance, knowing that in generations prior to the war they would help nor accept help from anyone.
The current whereabouts of the Svaha are entirely unknown. As there has been no sign of them returning, most tend to think they died out.
