Black Spirit is a wise, mysterious inhabitant of the spiritual realm.
She was once part of the material plane, but spent so much time in the spiritual one that it would be impossible for her to live somewhere else now.
Black Spirit mostly speaks in metaphors and sports a somewhat anti-social disposition, manifesting herself in dreams or visions virtually to only one person in the material plane that she took on as her protégé.

 

She always wear as mask a piece of skull. Her fur is completely black, except for a little red spot on her forehead that isn't visible.

 

"I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the

Trick or treat, what would it be?
I walk alone, I'm everything
My ears can hear and my mouth can speak
My spirit talks, I know my soul believes
But we're runnin' out of time (Time, ah)
All the echoes in my mind cry"

Running with the wolves - Aurora

 

Hello! The name was Alys

Alys Graham was born a lycanthrope and soon became a Dark witch among the most powerful nature could have gifted, wise, intuitive, wild. She had magic at her fingertips, ghosts and spirits followed her steps and spoke to her like a dear friend, trees whispered her secrets of wild magic, and moonlight kissed her pale face whenever she scouted the woodlands at night.
Because of that, she was already known by some as the Black Spirit.
However, there was a secret in her bloodline: the Graham family happened to be the conjunction of the dynasties descended from two powerful forces, the human blood of Samael, and the dragon blood of the simulacrum "Beredice".
She was a witch of darkness and the fire element didn't manifest in her aura, but somewhere inside her there was a potential: if she ever happened to have a male son, he would have become the perfect vessel for a reincarnation of Samael, the fallen angel of justice and destruction, and they both would have been hunted down by the Dark Ministry... but when she discovered that truth about herself, her firstborn was already born and named.
She couldn't let anyone know she had a son. If they thought she hadn't passed down the "gift" of Samael's dormant spirit, and that it still was in her, Alys would have been the only target of the Dark Ministry's hunt.
Reluctantly, Alys decided that the most sensible choice to protect the baby and his father (an absolutely not magic woodworker named Ron) was to leave... and so she did what would be impossible for most humans: she fled into the spiritual realm.

Over the Veil

She made a dwelling among the other spirits, taking the appearance of her true self as a wolfish creature.
Many years passed and changed her, adapting more and more to the convoluted ways of spirits, until she could no longer be told apart from the creatures native of her realm. From afar, she saw her son grow; he had inherited her magic and perception and, when his mind allowed her, she tried to guide and support him. The more baby Thomas and his powers grew, more Black Spirit could be at his side.
When he learnt how to pass over the veil, he started to look for her as his spirit guide, and the two grew closer and more trusting of each other.
And even when Samael had awakened in him, bringing the brightness of a fire element to the calm, earthly tones of Thomas' aura, he managed to retain the control of his own body and meet her again. In the end, when Thomas managed to befriend the Dark Minister himself (effectively putting an end to the hunt for his/Samael's head), the truth about Black Spirit being Thomas' mother came out with a little help from Mark McWoodland.
She will decide to keep living among spirits in her newfound home, but Black Spirit will, from that moment on, be considered a part of the already big family of the Malanove pack, albeit not an official pack member.

Related to: 

• Mother of a certain Thomas Wolf.
• Mother-in-law of Molly Wolf and Dr. Hannibal Morte.
• Grandmother of, in no particular order, Rose Danger, Hannibal Jr., Abigail Wolf, Walt Wolf, Joyla, Snowie, Avi, Doogee, Aurelio, Theo, and  Bennu.
• Will eventually befriend Molly Wolf's mother, and eventually eventually, be  Osvald Burnett's grandmother-in-law
• His father's family name was Graham, while his mother's was Delapore

Trivia: 

• She's terribly clumsy in the physical world (and that's quite embarassing to her). Now, even when she exits the spiritual realm, she does not revert to the original form she had before entering it, but she remains in what became her own during her stay beyond the veil.
