[VikNightfox]

Player Name/Alias: Fraggle

Character Name: Orion

Character Species: Anthro/Human Hybrid

Character Sex: Male

Character Age: 20

Height / Weight: 5' 7" / 154 lbs

Physical Description:
 The result of a male Human's encounter with a female Anthro wolf, Orion is predominantly wolf, with fur completely gray apart for spots matted with dirt and rubbish due to neglect. His elongated snout protrudes from his face, and a visible scar on the tip of the nose gives it a defining look. Orion's teeth are dulled slightly yet his canines are still sharp. His dark blue eyes gleam even in shadowed areas, an odd side-effect of his cross-breeding. An unkempt mane is another sign that betrays his cleanly look, its being uncut and unshaven for many years leaving it resting messily along his back. Orion's paws seem to lack pads and are slightly webbed like fingers, another sign of his human traits, along with his tail being slightly shorter than others. He wears a crudely sewn shirt thats had its original colors fade with wear, tear and time, showing more of a tanned brown color. His jeans seem new, yet the knees are worn out along with his sneakers, and it helps to complete his rugged, homeless look.

Background:
 The mother was a fifteen-year-old Anthro wolf who was picked up and used for a human's twisted desires, the father obviously leaving due to not wanting to be involved with an Anthro. Orion was born in the slums of Lower Alkesh in 2380 EL, living with his mother until the age of two, when she suddenly disappeared without a trace. After the initial shock, he lived with strangers (who thankfully held no ill-will towards him for his mixed heritage) until the age of thirteen. However, once on his own, he struck out on his luck when his heritage was discovered by those he had called friends. Orion lived several years in solitude due to being disliked by both Human and Anthro, but this would serve him well as a new skill later in life. He had grown accustomed to his life of hiding in the shadows. However, like most youths, he yearned for something more, but heading out to another area would be a whole new challenge which he did not feel ready to face. With Humans likely to kill him if they discovered his mixed heritage, and Anthros shunning him for fear of also being killed...who knows where he may wind up?

Personality:
 Due to his mixed heritage, Orion has had to live in a solitary existence of stealth and avoidance. However, several benefits have come up due to his lone-wolf behavior. Orion has found solace reading books to comfort him, and with this he has amassed a great knowledge of both races. However this knowledge comes from discarded books, so its likely that what he knows is outdated to the current time. Another benefit of his lonely existence is the quick life lesson that it's a harsh world, and this is reflected in his personality and defensive nature. He will only fight when something of value is threatened, and Orion's fighting style is generally defensive till the opponent has worn himself out, to which he will then run. Orion also holds an intense hatred for human males who both hunt him and/or seek the company of Anthro females due to the treatment of his mother. And with this said, Orion's sole purpose in life is to find his mother, or at least what happened to her.
While Orion holds an instinctual distrust of Anthros, he is not afraid to speak to them, due to a slightly higher chance of passing as one of them. Orion's anti-social behavior consists of avoiding eye contact, touching people or accepting gifts. However he is known to be polite and a nice gentleman (once you get over the smell).

Weapons / Equipment:
A stick made of bamboo.
A backpack filled with his books and supplies.

Additional Info: I'm hoping to find someone to portray his mother, so he can carry out his quest and be reunited. I hope. -Fraggle
