A sequel to the first batch of cubs (always following my hcs about charr cubs).
A cub's baby fur is often different in color (lighter, darker and/or duller) and more homogeneous than what it's going to be in their adulthood.
However, within their 6th month of life their new coat has usually grown in place of the baby fuzz, and their actual colors and markings start coming in. Some pelts remain more or less the same since birth, while others change a lot.

Trivia time!
Both Remus and Ellara grew spikes on their face at the start of puberty, and until then one could kinda see and definitely feel the tiny, bony protrusions just under their skin.
Both of them were born almost fully white-gray, with only the darker markings on their face and spine being a well-defined gray. Their fur immediately started to grow darker under the baby fuzz and kept going after their first shed, reaching their final colors around puberty.
The progression was really visible in their mane, which their dam tied it back in 3-4 tiny ponytails. Once the 4-years-younger Ellara joined the same fahrar as Remus, they braided each other's mane whenever possible.
"Lupin" was a farily scrawny cub, all ears and scruffy fur, so much he was eventually nicknamed a rat or skritt. Ironically he grew into the nickname in an unforeseeable way.
His fur stayed pretty much the same since birth, only sleeking out with age.
Farka was a quiet and timid cub, one seldom seen away from parents as she preferred to observe them work rather than play with other cubs her age. She rarely smiled, usually when her dam and sire allowed her to "help" with artillery assembling.
She was a very fuzzy baby and the supersoft fur matched her paler color. She was still not done losing it by her sixth month of life.
Adamas took a lot of his face from his dam's side, with only the colors reconnecting him to his sire's. The spiky fluff around his eyes is all his mama's though.
As a newborn his markings were less defined and a lighter gray, but they got lighter and more defined pretty fast.
Most of Deryn's memories around this age were of her dam, who fell ill due to complications during her birth and died within the year. As sad as those times were, she mostly remembers the warmest memories.
Her markings were less defined and her pelt lighter, but within a couple of years they settled on their final color.
Favian was a very shy cub who rarely left his dam's side, always asking her to tell more stories about the Black Citadel and their old enemies.
His fur started out as fully sandy and muted, only darkening and becoming shinier as the years went by and he grew more outward.
Up until the event that disfigured his arm and sobered him up to the reality of the Flame Legion settlement where he was born, little Daunte was actually a pretty sociable and cheery cub, finding joy even in that suffucating environment and sneaking out of the fahrar to go show his loving dam and uncaring sire his developing magic.
His fur stayed pretty much the same since birth, and its bright colors were something the shaman noted as a sign of great potential.
Born and raised on a pirate ship, "Bob" was a certified little shit from a young age. He was an unmannered menace with a huge attitude from the moment he learned his way around the ship's rigging, but the crew were so fond of him that they kept him around even after he became an orphan.
He was born solid brown with just a stripe of lighter fur across the back of his neck and muzzle, then he roaned out and developed some darker markings.

Big batch of stuff from 2021, from a bunch of attempts at drawing various OCs (and something other than charr!). Some of them got more or less major redesigns, but I'm posting them anyway.
11. Do they respect the chain of command or are they a bit of a loose cannon? Have they ever gotten in big trouble with superiors?
Favian always respected the chain of command, so he never had any real problem.
The only time he had ever gotten into troubles was with his teachers.
They had found out he had been skipping sparring practice to hide in the library and read, but his Primus was wise enough to recognize his talents and enroll him for extracurricular studies IF he stopped skipping classes.
A very good call, as his warband went on to join the efforts of dismantling the Wall and he was instrumental in the artifacts identification and recovery from the ruins.

12. What's their opinion on humans and the treaty? What about the Renegades?
Having grown up with a strong passion for history, specifically Ascalonian lore, he was kind of fascinated by humans as a race, far more than what any of his warband mates could understand.
After the Foefire ghosts massacred his warband and left him a gladium, he opted to leave the Iron Legion and join the Priory.
Meeting humans after what happened was a bit nerve-wracking for him, but things went much more smoothly than he expected, even finding sympathy and kind words that helped heal from the trauma.
When the treaty came around, he was pleasantly surprised, as that meant the Legions' efforts could focus on the ghost infestation... and also the new problem of Renegades. Ugh.

13. What was their first experience with other races? Did it impact them or forge particular sympathies/antipathies? Did they have any bias beforehand?
Excluding Foefire ghosts, Favian had regularly interacted with norn, sylvari and asura at the Priory camp in the Black Citadel, as he often needed help with artifact identification.
He had no particular opinion on them, but it was interesting to see the peculiar differences in the ways they acted and hear the stories they shared.
