About Ash Frost
Ash Frost is a 30-year-old fox-wolf hybrid and the protagonist of Rain City. Known online only by his pseudonym "A.F.", his art speaks truths he cannot voice. Behind his extraordinary talent lies a dark past — two years in prison for a crime he took the fall for, betrayed by someone he trusted. Now living in isolation in Rain City, he meets Luna Bloom, the first person who might see past his shadows.
Backstory
At 15, Ash lost his mother and was left alone. At 18, Nick Wilde took him under his wing with the promise "I've got your back. Always." But when their counterfeiting operation went wrong, Nick fled — leaving Ash to serve two years in prison. Now, seven years later, Ash hides behind his art, wearing dog tags marked "N.W." as a reminder of broken promises.
Appearance
Deep navy-blue fur with white chest/underbelly, bright cyan accent marks on ears and cheeks, ice blue eyes, gray henley shirt, black jeans, dog tags "N.W." always visible, black headphones around neck.
Greatest Fear
His greatest fear (shown in his nightmare) is Luna discovering his past and leaving him.
Character Arc
Learning to trust again, opening up to Luna, confronting Nick, healing.
