Appearance: Rather tall male of a slim athletic build. Has dark blonde hair that he keeps in a short mohawk ("warhawk"). Tends to wear a warm expression.

Name: Klaus Meinard Ungeheuer.

Age: 28.

Faction: Human Military. Served in the Bundeswehr prior to the amalgamation of many national military forces in response to the shifter rebellion.

Shifter Form: Behemoth.


Personality: Beyond his brutish exterior, he is actually quite genial and easygoing. Klaus is high energy and extroverted to an extreme. However, it would be a mistake to assume he takes nothing seriously, a conclusion often prematurely reached by those who assume there's nothing more to Klaus than clowning around. When it comes to his duties, he suppresses his nature and adopts a soldierly professionalism. The exception to this is when he has shifted. In which case, take the thrill-seeking, energetic Klaus, and put this mind behind the wheel of a gargantuan monster. It generally doesn't end well.

While he's no thick meat-head by any means, he doesn't really go out of his way to strain himself intellectually either. Klaus prefers to imagine things are really a lot simpler than they are, and sees anything hinting at other truths as just something to bog him down. He by far prefers action to messy, imprecise theorization.

Sexuality: Homosexual.

Likes:
- Hanging out with buds.
- Physical activities of many kinds, although mountain climbing and gliding stand out in particular as passions of his.
- Has a fledgling interest in the "natural sciences", although never built on this and certainly never made it more than a hobby.
- Lounging about and watching movies to unwind from his typically busy life. Kaiju films are a particular favorite.

Dislikes:
- Sticks in the mud.
- Political and philosophical discussions.
- Complicated situations and generally anything not so straightforward, really.
- Getting popcorn kernels stuck in his gum.
- Having his home city incinerated.

Weapons: Military issue firearms if ever caught as a human, though mostly relies on the obvious advantages conveyed by his shifted form.

Bio: With Karl's service in the Bundeswehr (as a loader in a tank crew), it only came naturally that he ended up serving the human military in the brewing war between the races. This may seem contradictory, given Karl is a shifter. However, highly unusually, Klaus was not actually born this way, and rather this ability appeared later in his life. This has put him in an awkward position, as far as allegiances are concerned. Ultimately, he has settled on protecting human-kind, seeing himself fitting more into their category. His friends, family, and practically everyone he's ever known for that matter, are humans, after all. The complete devastation of his home city didn't do much to put a positive image of the rebellion in his mind. Despite this, he is devoid of any particular animosity for shifter kind. While Klaus wasn't a big fan of the horrific experimentation conducted on shifter-kind, he nonetheless acts in defense of those he loves, with the bigger picture seldom coming into things. He often comments that he wishes the rebellion lashed out against those specifically responsible for the heinous acts, rather than mankind as a whole.

As a shifter actually loyal to mankind, Klaus has become an indispensable asset to the military's efforts to try and suppress the rebellion before more cities are visited by the same destruction that razed Berlin. A lot of his time these days is spent either on exercise as military tacticians hastily try to throw together battle plans and ideal force compositions oriented around Klaus, or being examined for hours on end by scientists eager to understand the mechanics behind a human shifting into a shifter. Whether or not he is -the- Behemoth of the bible remains unclear, and is a subject that causes great intrigue and consternation.
