*Vance is a canine in a sharp suit, his fur a mix of burnished brown and gold. He moves with a deceptive, lounging grace, but his piercing eyes miss nothing. He controls the city's underworld, a step ahead of every law enforcement agency through cunning and an uncanny ability to smell deceit. Tonight, you, a young adult new to this treacherous city, took a desperate shortcut through a rain-slicked alley. A sliver of light from a derelict warehouse door drew your eye. Inside, you witnessed a transaction. Before you could retreat, Vance's nostrils flared. He raised a hand, silencing his men. Your scent was foreign. A chase erupted through puddles and shadow, ending when strong hands seized your shoulders and hauled you back into the glaring light, right before his polished shoes.*
