(yikes this is going to be boring. Also sorry for the lack of detail on his horns on the other images. I got frustrated h a. I'm also really bad at 3D things gomen)
Name: Ialapereji Wynoko
Nicknames: Wyn/Iala (will most likely be updated)
Rank: Snackrifice
Original Power: Appearance manipulation, can heal wounds.
Shifts: Cervitaur, ursataur, human, griffin and a wisp.
Power Gained After Joining The Cult: Pyrotic communication (the ability to speak through flames)
Weaknesses: Artificial light (flash lights, phones, fluorescents etc.), stairs, long range weapons, if he's in an area with little to no shadows he's quite weak, like he's got a lot of muscle but he isn't used to actually being wounded and it hurts a lot more, really claustrophobic. He isn't experienced with fighting in any of his forms and hasn't put time into learning and that leaves him vulnerable.
Additional abilities/strengths: Can shift the appearance of his forms in a multitude of ways. Most notably is his ability to have eyes appear anywhere, as long as he's in the shadows he can't be wounded (will be explained at the bottom), running really fast because holy shit his stamina. Can fly for short distances as a griffin. Plays a pipe/flute like the lovely fae he is.
Age/How Old You Appear: 147 and he appears to be 34 on the human parts of his shifts.
Age You Joined The Cult: 146
Height: 6'7 in all shifts (minus wisp, he's about the size of your hand then).
Skin colour: Very dark blue
Race: Shadow shifter. Literally a living shadow with the ability to take form. Kind of a fae of sorts.
Weight of his main shifts: 247 lb (cervitaur), 146 lb (human), 142 lbs (griffin). Weightless as a wisp.
Body Type: Well muscled, a little more than an ectomorph
Eyes: Light blue, sometimes appears as turquoise.
Hair: In his human shifts where his face is full and visible his hair is thin, blackish blue and tied back into a ponytail. It's sometimes braided.
Scars: Has a large scar in the shape of a hexagram on the inside of his left thigh when human. As any four-legged animal it appears on his left foreleg right below the chest. He doesn't like to talk about where he got it from, and is thankful it's in an area most won't see. (I'll put information in the history section.)
Special Physical Attributes: Eyes can form anywhere on his body he wishes. They can even replace his mouth if he'd like! Large antlers, although one is broken, in his cervi/ursataur shift. Blue embers float across (underneath??) his skin, but they don't burn and can't really be felt. He can control their brightness and density at will. If his hood is down and you catch a glimpse at the inside of his half-face you can see a mass of black smoke.
Clothing: As a cervi/ursataur he usually only wears a black hood, but will sometimes wear a robe as well which is similar in colour with gold detailing. He wears nothing as a griffin, and will wear almost anything while human as long as it's lightweight and comfortable.
Physical Description Paragraph: Iala is a very strange creature who never appears the same outside of the shadows. His colours change constantly, and so does the placement and shape of many body parts. Embers swirl just beneath his skin, making him seem like he is more like a glass container from far away. His face is usually hidden by a dark hood, and even when it isn't it's usually only half there or with a bony structure resembling a birds beak, which forms into antlers near the back. Behind his half face is a dark swirling mass that has a consistency of smoke.
His ears as a human and cervi/ursataur are shaped like a deer's, but as a griffin they are bird-like and seemingly absent. The colours are almost always muted and dark on all of his shifts, unless he wants to seem more normal for whatever reason. He can control what his four shifts look like and has been known to disguise his half face if other's act repulsed by it. On other occasions, if it's someone he doesn't like, he purposely grosses them out more by turning his mouth into an eye.
The bird part of his griffin shift is that of a secretary bird, while the land part is a cheetah. A good reference picture is by shoomlah and imagine Iala's colour scheme. I imagine the red face would probably stay the same though.
When in the shadows, he looks exactly like that. A shadow. A big dark formless mass.
Family: He has a mother and father as well as three younger sisters and brother. The two youngest are twins (one boy, one girl.)
Quirks: Is usually always smiling (ignore the coloured part of the ref, I wanted to draw him closed mouthed for it), and tries to keep his laughs quiet (they sound more like wheezing, it's sad). He'll stomp his feet/rock back and forth (depending on the shift) while standing for long periods of time.
Goals: To improve his powers and himself (mostly the lying) and to cause harmless mischief. Well... Mostly harmless.
Interests: Botany, pipe/flute music and the likes, really enjoys drums but can't play them at all and necromancy. Which is really just an interest, he hasn't risen any dead. Yet.
Habits: Making really really bad jokes. Like really bad. Stomps his feet a lot, even when he isn't in a bad mood, sticking his tongue out and laughing. He laughs whenever he's in a very good mood SO.
Vices: Callousness, dishonesty, jealousy, rashness/recklessness, weakness. Besides personality things, he really likes sweets and is pretty sexual, but doesn't usually follow through on it.
What Does Your Room Look Like: Appears tidy at first, but if you take a closer look you'll notice there isn't any order at all and that everything is just shoved wherever is convenient at the time.
Personality: As I'm sure you've noticed, he has many personality vices. Most of which are very "yikes" to look at, but don't worry! they aren't all he is. Iala is very easygoing and tends to be friendly most of the time. He's hardly ever in a very bad mood, but can easily be angered or frustrated. Although his negative moods don't last long and can be easily fixed by an apology. He tends to be a bit more distant with strangers and acquaintances, and most of his negative personality traits happen when around these people. Minus the lying and callousness. That happens to everyone to some extent. He enjoys feeling positive and making jokes, though these are usually at the expense of others.
Likes: Fruit, warm foods, chocolate, running, scaring people and pulling "jokes", dark areas, active/extroverted people, being surrounded by lots of noise and activity without needing to do anything himself.
Dislikes: Bright artificial light, old chocolate and other sweets, cold foods, people with neutral or boring personalities, when people take his "jokes" too seriously.
Preferred Food Source: Sweets, but they're both unsustainable and unhealthy. Besides this he prefers plants and will hardly ever eat meat.
Group Dynamics: He loves to work with others and is very willing to help whenever he can if the subject is serious enough, on top of making jokes if it's too tense for him. If the situation isn't too serious, he's more of a clown than anything else and only gives out help when specifically asked.
Friends: Nechku, Amon (will be updated)
Allies: Nechku, Amon (will be updated)
Enemies: Considers his mother an enemy, but besides that he hasn't encountered many others inside the cult. (will be updated)
Rivals: None in the cult as of yet. (will be updated)
What Do You Consider Your Position In The Cult: That one guy off to the side who's funny sometimes and helps every now and then. Likes to help but if he isn't called upon he doesn't.
What Do You Do For The Group: Can speak to just about anyone, considering they all have fire on them to some extent and if not he can easily run the message to them. So really just a message runner and a healer.
How You Joined The Cult: Heard about it while sneaking around in shadows and figured it was a place he would enjoy.
Promised explanation: When he is in a dark place and made entirely or partly by shadow he cannot be wounded or wounded badly. This being simply because a shadow doesn't have form, and if he decides to form himself while in the dark he is mostly shadow so his wounds won't be nearly as bad as they should be. Basically, think about it, you can't really hurt a shadow. Unless you shine a bright light. That shit burns.
I apologise for any mistakes and I hope you like him!
