[color=90AC4A][h3]Personality[/h3][/color][color=906B40]Qal is a very introspective person, quiet and reserved, they often seem to be observing a situation before acting. The real truth is that Qal often gets lost in thought and zones out, and usually only tunes back in when they are required to, making them quite good at acting quickly and faking that they know what’s going on.

They do prefer the company of animal companions over sentient beings, but that’s mostly due to not knowing very many people - living alone deep in a distant forest doesn't often give Qal the opportunity to make friends with people.[/color]

[color=9e0b0f]The beast is always hungry and enjoys the taste of human the most, though it will happily eat anything humanoid. It will not eat any creature with magic, and often leaves them alone unless provoked. It tends to attack the strongest target first.[/color]

[color=90AC4A][h3]Background[/h3][/color][color=906B40]Qal was cursed to turn into a mindless beast every new moon by a jealous druid who hated Qal's natural connection with nature. The cursed beast was meant to hunt and kill the forest creatures until the forest corrected the balance of things and killed Qal. However, even as a beast, Qal could not bring themself to harm a single creature in the forest, and instead fled, finding their way to a small village and slaughtering the entire population in their bloodlust. 

After that, Qal tried to look for a cure and locked themself up every new moon, but over time, they started to connect with their beast. Feeling bad about keeping a part of themself locked up, both metaphorically and physically, Qal stopped holding back and let themself run free during the new moon. 

Of course, word of a monster going on a rampage every month eventually got around and rumors of this beast being an old demon accomplice of the Fallen King started to gain traction. Hunters tracked Qal down after a new moon, and since Qal was no longer a beast during the day, the hunters turned Qal in instead of killing them - though after being imprisoned, Qal wonders if dying would have been the kinder fate.

With nothing to do but think and talk to the rats, Qal has become closer to their beast, and while they haven’t fully mastered it, Qal has started to learn how to transform outside of a new moon. With this stronger connection - or because Qal is no longer fighting the part of them that is the beast - Qal no longer completely forgets everything while transformed, experiencing it much like a dream: with little control and a vague remembering upon waking up.[/color]
