Name: Maverick
Age: 16
Gender:male
Race: werewolf impart w/the essence of death (as in the grim reaper)
Magical: yes
Special Power: He can shape shift into a werewolf with jet black hair. Also, when about to transform into a were many signs are evident such as changes in his voice and unusual behavior. Sometimes when in battle or when deep emotions are stimulated such as fear or anger waves of decay will emanate from his body, slowly rotting the body and the mind while turning inorganic materials to dust. This is an extremely exhausting ability and will leave his drained and possibly unconscious afterwards. On top of these two abilities the wind seems to react to his emotions in one way or another.
Looks: look at picture. Add to this a hidden blade and a few throwing knives hidden on his person. Stands around 5'6-5'7 and weighs 125 pounds. Is quite skinny, but not so much that he would look unhealthy or sickening. Also carries around a few rolls of bandaging since he is quite often injured.
Weapons
Name:Karasutsume Description:A large nodachi, and probably the least used sword in Maverick's arsenal. The weapon is huge and stands at around 5'6, almost as tall as the wielder and much taller then others. Despite it's large status it is incredibly nimble, hence the name Karasutsume, or raven's claw. And, like his many other weapons this is unbreakable. Drawbacks:The Karasutsume is huge, and therefore useless in an indoor environment where there is no room to swing the massive weapon.
Name:Yasha Description:The only sword within Maverick's possession that has any magical properties. Yasha is the katana of a daisho comprised of both Sange and Yasha. When wielded together it was foretold they held nearly limitless power, but the smaller of the pair never found it's way into his possession. Without the latter Yasha seems to have no special properties at all with the slight exception of being unbreakable, and rumor speaks of it granting the user supethuman agility. The latter is myth, and without it's companion sword it is pretty much useless. Drawbacks:this sword wields no special properties with the exception of being unbreakable
Name: Wakizashi X3 Description: Nothing special about these, just a trio of wakizashi. One is held in plain sight, while the other two are hidden on his person. They do have one particularly useful attribute, though. They are unbreakable. He's had the same swords as long as he can remember. Drawbacks: There is abosolutely nothing special about these besides the fact that they do not break.
Name: Hidden Blade Description: The hidden blade is a spring loaded box with a foot long blade hidden in it. Flicking for wrist in the right way it unlocks and locks the blade causing it to protrude out between you fingers or go back in the box. The box is attached to the wrist/arm guard that one would wear. They are considered rare due to the fact it would be a pain to make one that works right. As with his other weapons this is unbreakable. Drawbacks: At times it doesn't work properly and catches, or sometimes even pierces the user.
Personality: Quiet describe him best-most of the time. He doesn't like crowd places filled with people he doesn't know be it bar, club or restaurant. Avoiding confrontation is very high in his list of priorities when around others-which he despises and rarely does unless absolutely necessary. Naturally, this makes him shy away from fights, even if one of his own is on the losing side. Subconsciously he wishes he was a little less shy and had some friends, and sometimes does things out of his character to try and get some attention. Most of the time these things are harmless, but sometimes poses a serious threat to himself and those around him. Therefore he is no stranger to the inside of a cell or scoldings and beatings. He has learned to dismiss these things over the years giving him a very high resilience to pain and emotion. This does not necessarily mean he is a good fighter and has no feelings. Since he suffers from Insomnia sometimes he can't tell whether he is in a dream or what is happening is real and becomes murderous and very unpredictable. These things usually happen when he wakes up from a traumatic nightmare or is awaken by an outside force. He is a very tormented man, and hates the world for it, yet still takes everything it throws at him. At times, and these could be any times he will explode very violently.
History: Found on the verge of death in an alley by a werewolf when he was 14. Nursed back to health and bitten. Ran away when reached age of 16. Suffers from Amnesia and Insomnia since being found in said alley and doesn't remember anything before that experience.
During his first few months he failed to integrate into the pack successfully, he was practically an outcast. He hunted alone, slept alone. The only relation he had was the werewolf who had bitten him and even she was somewhat distanced. When he did try to integrate himself the only way he found he could get attention was through stupid and often dangerous stunts. The younger weres goaded him into doing these things, and they often resulted in a great amount of pain for himself. Often he was caught by the older weres and he was not given any mercy. Since he was outcast and he had done those things tongue lashings were almost a daily thing as were beatings. They were brutal, and sometimes left him with a few cracked bones. He took it, though. Optimism was strong in him at that time and his spirit had yet to be broken. He continued doing these things until he was partially accepted. Still forced to sleep on the outskirts of the den and territory but at least he was not teased as often and the beatings weren't as brutal.
During his second year bad things happened. One of his stunts resulted in a pup being killed. He was nearly exiled and the only reason he wasn't was he bribed another were to defend him. Amongst the elder weres he was considered a nuisance and should've been killed long ago yet among the younger weres he was a jester. Maverick was still under the illusion that they actually liked him and that it wasn't because of the things he did. He was hiding from the facts because he couldn't take them.
In the last 3 months of the time he had spent with the pack something terrible happened. He had gotten in a fight with two other were and won. That wasn't the problem. They had both died, and with him already have killed a pup he was the prime suspect. All the younger weres knew it was him, and he couldn't deny it. It was only a matter of time before someone snitched and he was found out. He at that moment chose to flee the pack.
Other: At birth he was imparted with the essence of death, henceforth his decaying abilities. He doesn't even know it, though.
