Bare Grills (Wildhound)

Bare Grills is one of the four heroes of Chaos Immemorial, alongside Trail Blazer, Darkside and Sharp Mind, and is the strongest and strangest of the group.

History
Wildhound was born in the Hound Clan of the Lycanthropes, who live in the plains between the Everfree Forest and Whitetail Woods, and often hunt in either (the more civilized members of the clan live in villages along the river, or in Ponyville). As a foal, however, he was abandoned by his family and left in the Everfree Forest for an unknown reason, before he even discovered his Lycanthrope heritage.

In the Everfree, Wildhound was found by a group of Timber Wolves, who recognized him as a "Lycan Soul" (a term which he did not understand), and took care of him as a tribute to the deceased Alicorn. After years in the forest, Bare decided to rejoin society. Shortly after leaving the Everfree and coming into Ponyville, he saw an Earth Pony sitting in front of a grill with nothing on it. When he asked "Bare grills?", the Earth Pony mistook it for introducing himself. Not knowing his name himself, Bare stuck with the name and began a new, civilized life in Ponyville.
