Blanca

"A-awroo, awroo! (To me, happiness is helping the people I love.) Aw-awroo! (I don't need anything else but that.)"

- Blanca

Blanca is one of the man heroes of the videogame Shadow Hearts:Covenant. He was raised by an orphaned girl of the village of Domremy named Jeanne. Overtime Blanca became friends with all the villagers and condsidered the village under his protection. One day one of the villager named Gepetto, invited a man named Yuri Hyuga to stay wih him after he lost his girlfriend Alice Elliot, Geppetto's niece. Yuri and Gepetto both became good friends with Jeanne and so by extension with Blanca as well. Yuri and Gepetto join Blanca trying to defend the town but unfortunately in a raid by the evil organization, Sapientes Gladio, Jeanne is killed. After Jeanne's death Blanca takes it upon himself to help Yuri and Gepetto take on Sapientes Gladio.

Blanca is extremely intelligent, he is a genius of epic proportions compared to the average wolf and above average intellect compared to the average human. He can use the crest that allow most of the party members to cast spells and makes for a powerful character as he is both skilled in magic use and a strong and fast fighter in his own right. Blanca's sense of smell and hunting skills allow him to both sneak passed foes and avoid traps and ambushes. Though he can not speak human he can understand it and the game provided translational text for the player to see what Blanca's various barks, yelps and growls translate too. Yuri is the only party member who can understand the words that Blanca speaks though, this is apparently a sideeffect of both Yuri's harmonixer bloodline and feral persona.
