'''''Wolves of Fortune: Reign of the Black Diamonds''''' is an original series of short stories of 7 - 12 pages each in length by [[Grifter Timber Wolf]], containing fifteen short stories written between the years 2004 and 2006 in which three friends use the power of nature and their own beliefs as [[furries]] to transform and use the powers of the elements to defeat evil.

==Synopsis==

Four warriors rise to their legacy as they claim the powers of the elements in order to defeat the reign of the Black Diamonds. The Black Diamonds are used to summon monsters deep within the hearts of ordinary people, the purer the heart the more powerful the enemy. Three guardians begin the story and gain a [[dragon]] as an ally from a former enemy. They learn of six elemental guardians, their ancestors that give them their power. The elements are Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Light and Shadow.

{{spoiler}}
Traveling to Egypt, Painless uncovered the plot of five different people to use the diamonds to summon forth their master Shroud from the darkness, inadvertently he awakens to the witness of Painless, who is staked up as a sacrifice to the dark lord. Painless breaks free and escapes only to come across a green [[Wikipedia:sceptre|sceptre]] buried in the sand and with it two others, one red and the other blue. He receives a message from his ancestor, delivered as an illusion through his mind and gains the ability to [[transform]] into a black [[Wolf (species)|wolf]] with the powers over the element of Earth. He barely manages to escape the construction of an enormous dark temple in the middle of the desert. After he escapes back to the United States, his mate Grifter senses something happened and in his distraction their jeep is thrown over by a woman who was turned into a giant monster by one of the Black Diamonds. Painless attacks, but finds his powers are useless against her, Grifter finds the blue scepter and it responds to him, allowing him to transform into a gray timber wolf, the Guardian of Water teams up with his mate to destroy the diamond and return the woman to normal. The third Guardian, Taiho is uncovered when he is attacked by his mate who was possessed by a black diamond in a ploy to lure the two others out into the open. Instead, when the red scepter reacts, Taiho transforms into the red wolf and Guardian of Fire.

The trio decide to leave their home in Colorado and travel to the home of Grifter's grandmother in Smithon, Illinois, along the way they have more encounters with their enemies and after they get there, Grifter learns his grandmother knows more about their situation than she had ever let on before. She gives Grifter a talisman called the Book of Tides that furthers their power when they are able to summon weapons from their own talismans, uncovered throughout their adventure. In a plot to turn Grifter against his friends, and take revenge on a fallen General, Mever, the remaining of the Glass Twin Sisters uses the power of darkness to turn Grifter evil. Witnessing this, and seeing the torment suffered by his father, Shroud at the hands of the main antagonist Abysno, the dragon defects to the side of the Guardians and awakens as the Guardian of Air and Light, taking his place as rightful leader of the wolves. Eventually the three of them turn Grifter back to the right side and they destroy another of the Generals. A powerful spell sends the Guardians to four different points of time and space in the set of four stories called "The Road Divided." Shard gains a love interest in medieval England in a woman named Emily, though she is not mentioned in the rest of the stories. Taiho stops a band of outlaws in the Old West who were responsible for the deaths of an Indian tribe. Painless finds his way through a dark maze of [[Wikipedia:Booby trap|booby traps]] and deadly encounters in a mid-1980s cavern, and Grifter looses his memory then regains it in time to stop the villain Toxic, leaving him trapped in a human body and asylum when they encounter each other in some distant future.

Upon returning to the present, the Guardians find that Shroud had taken over the entire planet during their absence, and inevitably destroy the house that had been given to Grifter by his grandmother before she died. They launch a strike against them, and Shard encounters his weapon; the Lance of Zeus and uses it to fight and defeat his father, trapping Abysno in a crystal hopefully for all time. Due to the massive destruction of the world, the Guardians use their elemental powers to turn back time, reverting everything to a point before the diamonds were discovered. With Abysno, the source of the diamonds trapped, the diamonds were never encountered and an alternate history is produced instantaneously. To avert a paradox, the Guardians witness as alternate versions of themselves continue their normal lives, and they themselves are transported to another dimension in which they can live in an elemental paradise for all time.

'''Grifter Timber Wolf''' (born August 30, 1981) is the author of the story series ''[[Wolves of Fortune]]'' and ''[[Roads of Fortune]]''.

Born in [[:Category:England|England]], the option for citizenship in the UK was available until he reached the age of 18, but raised nationally with [[:Category:United States of America|American]] parents he decided to retain his US citizenship. A graduate of [[wikipedia:Charlotte High School (Punta Gorda, Florida)|Charlotte High School]] in [[:Category:Florida|Florida]], Grifter left his home at the age of 18 and moved to [[wikipedia:Orlando, Florida|Orlando]], Florida and into a life of his own. His personality varies, but usually ranks near the top of the social chain, with the exception of new crowds in which he may feel outcast and shy, he is generally a warm and friendly person. He has a passion for writing and has limited but capable abilities in art, a fondness for acting and creation of stories contributes to the two novels he has created.

He currently has a career in tech support and lives with his mate [[Painless Wolf]], with whom he has been since 2002, near [[wikipedia:Denver|Denver]], [[:Category:Colorado|Colorado]].

== Stance on the furry fandom ==
Grifter has always had a respect for people who have found the animal spirit within themselves and have truly claimed their connection. Media and stereotypical "furry" behavior has provided skepticism on a few furs, but as a whole, he finds it a welcoming and open community. For the few furs who find being 'Furry' a ''trend'', a ''fashion'' or a ''phase'' he feels pity. To him, being a fur is a way of bringing out your true colors. These types of furs bring a frown on the community, especially if they go so far as to call the culture a ''fetish'' outlet.

== Furry discovery and form ==
Around the year 1997, the first glimpses of the [[furry community]] were discovered by Grifter who was surfing the internet for one of his first times. The first page coming across was the page named "Werewolves in Suburbia" which led him into [[FurNation]] and the webpage of Singe the demon. It was shortly afterward, that he related his passion and love of the [[Wolf (species)|wolf]] and combined it with a human for his furry form.

Grifter Timber Wolf (Or Grifter T. Wolf as his signed name) was born. A tall [[werewolf]] standing over 7' in height, as of recently has been brought down closer to his human height of <nowiki>5'5''</nowiki> his [[fur]] is a silvery gray color with a white underside leading from the bottom of the [[muzzle]] down to between the thighs (inside) he has a tuft of hair that he has grown out. The color is a slightly darker, almost smoky gray color that travels down to the small of his back. It is mostly, but not always tied into a single long [[tail]] by a blue band near the base of his skull, and a second near the end of the tail. His tail, more reminiscent of a [[fox]]'s tail is colored white at the end, while the remainder of the body is his normal fur color, there is no specific connection to the white between his legs and the white on his tail. He is a [[digitgrade]]/[[plantigrade]] hybrid, his heels only being slightly off the ground, and pads toward the front of his feet.

=== Clothing ===
Various clothing can be seen on Grifter in his artistic renderings, many times with a plain blue baseball cap (though in some instances the word '[[Yiff]]' is written across the back.) The cap is worn backwards, and his [[ear]]s stick up through it. His left ear has two piercings on it, both either silver hoops or one of them is a feathered earring. He traditionally wears no shirt, but has a dark blue vest on, that he leaves open. The vest falls to his hips before it cuts off, leaving nothing until a pair of blue jeans he wears. A fan of blue jeans, these would be comfortably fitting, though tight and worn jeans. His feet are wrapped in a blue ribbon-like material which is wound about, skipping his heel and his toes, to give the majority of his foot protection from the elements. His hands almost always have a pair of blue fingerless gloves on them, they are made of a fabric like suede leather and stop at the end of his palms.

=== Alternate clothing ===
For traditional clothing, his clothes styles can vary from casual to formal as he sees fit and is not stapled to the description above. Though he is a fan of loincloths, one in particular he is depicted in on more than one occasion is a thin leather loincloth, baring little discreetness to hide himself from the views of anyone looking at him. Tied together by strings on both sides, and lacking a back flap (as his tail serves this purpose)

==Future Projects==
As of 2014, Grifter and [[Jaden Heartdancer]] are working on a project concerning a comic reboot of his books Wolves of Fortune and Roads of Fortune, in which they and Painless Wolf take on fictionalized versions of themselves to save the world from evil.

The project is a work in progress; a Kickstarter will be opened when it is ready to go into production.

{{unref}}
'''Jaden Heartdancer''' (born 1966), is a [[furry artist]] whose [[fursona]] is a [[wolf]].

Jaden began drawing [[anthropomorphic]] animals during his adolescence, and, identifying with [[wolves]], originally drew himself as a [[werewolf]]. Jaden learnt that others drew such images when he discovered [[furry fandom]] in January, 2000, after he found and was impressed by a sketch of an [[anthropomorphic]] [[lion]] by [[Wookiee]].

Prompted to search for furry art on the internet, Jaden went on to find [[Furnation]], and the [[alt.lifestyle.furry]] newsgroup. He also experienced his first [[furry convention]] that year when he attended [[ConFurence 11]].

Jaden went on to attend several other conventions, including [[CritterConDiego]], [[Mephit FurMeet]], and [[Anthrocon]]. At [[Mephit Furmeet 7]], Jaden was the winner of the T-shirt-back competition, when a design he submitted was chosen by convention director [[Tyger Cowboy]].

Jaden was mated to [[Bobby Heartsong]], with whom he undertook a [[Pawfasting]] Ceremony at [[Mephit Furmeet 5]] (Saturday, September 1st, 2001). Jaden and Bobby together created the romance-themed [[furry comic]] ''[[Song & Dance]]''.

On March 15, 2014, Bobby passed away in his sleep at the age of 55 - He is terribly missed by him and those closest to him.

'''Jaden Heartdancer''' (born 1966), is a [[furry artist]] whose [[fursona]] is a [[wolf]].

Jaden began drawing [[anthropomorphic]] animals during his adolescence, and, identifying with [[wolves]], originally drew himself as a [[werewolf]]. Jaden learnt that others drew such images when he discovered [[furry fandom]] in January, 2000, after he found and was impressed by a sketch of an [[anthropomorphic]] [[lion]] by [[Wookiee]].

Grifter Timber Wolf

'''Grifter Timber Wolf''' (born August 30, 1981) is the author of the story series ''[[Wolves of Fortune]]'' and ''[[Roads of Fortune]]''.

Born in [[:Category:England|England]], the option for citizenship in the UK was available until he reached the age of 18, but raised nationally with [[:Category:United States of America|American]] parents he decided to retain his US citizenship. A graduate of [[wikipedia:Charlotte High School (Punta Gorda, Florida)|Charlotte High School]] in [[:Category:Florida|Florida]], Grifter left his home at the age of 18 and moved to [[wikipedia:Orlando, Florida|Orlando]], Florida and into a life of his own. His personality varies, but usually ranks near the top of the social chain, with the exception of new crowds in which he may feel outcast and shy, he is generally a warm and friendly person. He has a passion for writing and has limited but capable abilities in art, a fondness for acting and creation of stories contributes to the two novels he has created.

He currently has a career in tech support and lives with his mate [[Painless Wolf]], with whom he has been since 2002, near [[wikipedia:Denver|Denver]], [[:Category:Colorado|Colorado]].

== Stance on the furry fandom ==
Grifter has always had a respect for people who have found the animal spirit within themselves and have truly claimed their connection. Media and stereotypical "furry" behavior has provided skepticism on a few furs, but as a whole, he finds it a welcoming and open community. For the few furs who find being 'Furry' a ''trend'', a ''fashion'' or a ''phase'' he feels pity. To him, being a fur is a way of bringing out your true colors. These types of furs bring a frown on the community, especially if they go so far as to call the culture a ''fetish'' outlet.

== Furry discovery and form ==
Around the year 1997, the first glimpses of the [[furry community]] were discovered by Grifter who was surfing the internet for one of his first times. The first page coming across was the page named "Werewolves in Suburbia" which led him into [[FurNation]] and the webpage of Singe the demon. It was shortly afterward, that he related his passion and love of the [[Wolf (species)|wolf]] and combined it with a human for his furry form.

Grifter Timber Wolf (Or Grifter T. Wolf as his signed name) was born. A tall [[werewolf]] standing over 7' in height, as of recently has been brought down closer to his human height of <nowiki>5'5''</nowiki> his [[fur]] is a silvery gray color with a white underside leading from the bottom of the [[muzzle]] down to between the thighs (inside) he has a tuft of hair that he has grown out. The color is a slightly darker, almost smoky gray color that travels down to the small of his back. It is mostly, but not always tied into a single long [[tail]] by a blue band near the base of his skull, and a second near the end of the tail. His tail, more reminiscent of a [[fox]]'s tail is colored white at the end, while the remainder of the body is his normal fur color, there is no specific connection to the white between his legs and the white on his tail. He is a [[digitgrade]]/[[plantigrade]] hybrid, his heels only being slightly off the ground, and pads toward the front of his feet.

=== Clothing ===
Various clothing can be seen on Grifter in his artistic renderings, many times with a plain blue baseball cap (though in some instances the word '[[Yiff]]' is written across the back.) The cap is worn backwards, and his [[ear]]s stick up through it. His left ear has two piercings on it, both either silver hoops or one of them is a feathered earring. He traditionally wears no shirt, but has a dark blue vest on, that he leaves open. The vest falls to his hips before it cuts off, leaving nothing until a pair of blue jeans he wears. A fan of blue jeans, these would be comfortably fitting, though tight and worn jeans. His feet are wrapped in a blue ribbon-like material which is wound about, skipping his heel and his toes, to give the majority of his foot protection from the elements. His hands almost always have a pair of blue fingerless gloves on them, they are made of a fabric like suede leather and stop at the end of his palms.

=== Alternate clothing ===
For traditional clothing, his clothes styles can vary from casual to formal as he sees fit and is not stapled to the description above. Though he is a fan of loincloths, one in particular he is depicted in on more than one occasion is a thin leather loincloth, baring little discreetness to hide himself from the views of anyone looking at him. Tied together by strings on both sides, and lacking a back flap (as his tail serves this purpose)
