Just let me know if you want anything changed! [hider=Immoral and immortalâ„¢][color=lightgray][b]Name / alias:[/b] Shiloh [b]Species:[/b] Demon [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Age:[/b] At least 500+, mentally in his 30s [b]Faction:[/b] None at the moment. Will only work for people he personally has an interest in. [b]Appearance:[/b] Shiloh can transform into many different kinds of animals (birds and mammals mostly), although he only has one human form. In this form he has dark hair, a beige-ish complexion, and black eyes. When he wants a (temporary) new look, he simply finds a new victim to possess and uses them until their body becomes too damaged for him to use any further.

He can and will pretend to have human emotions and thought processes, as he often tries to blend in with the human population, although these feelings are never genuine no matter how convincing it might seem. He's still perfecting this, however, and will slip up at times, letting his true nature shine through. Having only been in Kansas for a decade, he's still decidedly curious about both his surroundings and the people living there; this is part of his motive for roaming around the state, as he's always eager to learn. Shiloh has little sense of self restraint, throwing caution to the wind and taking himself wherever his impulses tell him to go. Despite his age, he's still younger than many of the other demons in the area and therefore looked down on as something of a rookie. He has a rather dismissive attitude towards this, however, thinking of the others as just being biased against him because of his more recent integration into human society. [b]Biography:[/b] Although Shiloh's been on Earth for at least a hundred years prior to this, the demon really only appeared inside human civilization around the beginning of the Civil War, taking up his human form inside of small towns and experimentally mingling with people. Up until that point, he'd only ever watched human activity from the fringes of civilization before, making deals and causing trouble here and there. He learned quickly; after bouncing around a few places, he took to the city and began creating a persona for himself. But civilian life wasn't enough for him, he craved something more. That was when he set his sights on the Union army, as he just so happened to be in the northern parts of the country. After lying and manipulating his way past a few hurdles, he eventually got himself a job as an officer in the cavalry. It was there that he really started to understand the nuances of human interaction and how people worked. Here, he had plenty of exposure to people from all walks of life; he used this to his advantage, learning more about the species while making several under the table deals with his coworkers at the same time. Shiloh took off again as soon as the war ended, although he kept his old sabre with him as a sort of memento. He's staying in Wichita, Kansas, and has established himself there as a ruthless mercenary who'll do anything - for a price. [b]Melee Weapons:[/b] A bowie knife and a cavalry sabre [b]Projectile Weapons:[/b] A single revolver [b]Skills/Abilities:[/b] [indent]- Typical demonic abilites: possession, shapeshifting between forms, accelerated healing. - The type of magic he uses is pyrokinesis! He can start and extinguish fires by himself, although he has to be touching the target for it to work (or he can ignite a flame in his own hands). He can't be burned by flames. He has supernatural strength as well, although it's limited outside of his true form. - One of his passive powers allows him to subtly manipulate the weak minded into trusting him. If they become aware of this, however, the effect is broken. Another passive power is his ability to remain warm and spike up his body temperature while in the cold. - Like most demons, Shiloh can make deals with humans - usually, for a steep price. He can grant just about any wish they want (albeit a twisted version of it), although being an average demon, he has limits. He can't bring the dead back to life, for example. - The sabre he carries is mostly for show nowadays, but he can still make use of it if necessary. He also received training for all his other current weapons during his time in the Union army.[/indent] [b]Other:[/b] [indent]- His current alias, Shiloh, was borrowed from one of his victims; very few people know his real name, as he's only used it prior to his time on Earth. Despite popular belief, saying it out loud won't summon him, but it will draw him to you. - Shiloh will follow humans he finds interesting for extended periods of time, sometimes offering them help free of any apparent price. What happens next depends entirely on how much of a liking he's taken to the individual. [/indent][/color][/hider]
