Bio

So... Bio's are a thing now. Fancy.

Anywho!
25 y/o guy, currently student and living by myself, yada yada.

Veteran Roleplayer, with over 7-8 years of experience in both Pen & Paper and text based, with minimal LARP Experience. I have a great interest in fantasy settings and tends to dislike Post Apocalypse, or generally anything involving guns and modern weaponry. Gimme a sword and the ability to throw fire, and I'm happy.

I have relatively high standards and find myself somewhat disappointed if my posts are below 500 words, preferring ~1000+ whenever possible (sadly, not always easy). At the same time I expect similar standards from my fellow players. I also have a tendency to play female characters in spite of my being a guy, mainly because I find it more entertaining than playing the big burly guy.

Still open, Monochromatic :)

As for you Eldritch: I have nothing against a Gorgon based character, but try to find something that isn't just "turn to stone" instantly upon touch. Perhaps something similar, or other snake related? There are more Gorgons than just Medusa, so I'm sure you can find something :)

As for a Half-Japanese yakuzi member, I'm okay with that.
Looking forward to it ^^

Also, a bit off topic, but did you think any further about possibly wanting to join Shifting Worlds?
Taking it to the PM so as to not clutter the OOC:
I know I made a mistake. Don't think I'm not aware of that. As for specifications: Geokinetic Manipulation is available, at about a third of the power of his Focus Shift. Which essentially means that he becomes three times as powerful when Shifting. A bit more when going into Rage.

As I said, I know I fucked up, but I also hope that it doesn't break too much and that I'm able to fix it. I was certain that I had at least insinuated it in the OP, but upon re-reading I realised that I hadn't. I should have, I know. Apologies for that <.< It is edited in, so it's there. Eitherway, I always had it in the back of my mind, otherwise Liza wouldn't have been approved, nor would Gregory. It won't really change a lot, the only difference being that you actually know now.
Not all humans are equal, Aeon. Some are stronger, faster, more agile, while others are smarter and quick thinkers. He still has some magic in his human form, but it is a fraction of what he has when Shifted. He isn't helpless at all, so while he can't move several ton of stone, he can still manipulate a sizeable portion.

He does have the increasing magical levels, I never said that they were without magic as humans. If they were, Lily wouldn't have been able fulfil her job as a spy. Take Liz, for example. She's pretty much exactly what I had in mind: She does have magic in her human form, but it becomes much more powerful when she Shifts. At any rate, Magic, like so many other things, becomes stronger as you train it/practice. If you want, you can have Gregory being a bit more powerful magically because of lots of practice. Same goes for Bright_Ops if you want Thule to have a bit more (eventually a bit better senses like I edited in at the end) than just a weakened version of the Howl. The part about his physical qualities as a human being only those he has trained himself to is set in stone, however.

Edit:
It's not because it's a new rule, as I have always thought of it like this, evident by Liz's ability to use magic in Human form (and still magic that makes her far more powerful than any mere human). I just forgot to mention it in the Intro Post.
As it is, there are a few things that I sort of raise an eyebrow at.

First is his abilities. There seems to be quite a lot for someone who is only 23 years old. I know you haven't written the background yet, but I still feel like being a supernaturally good hunter, trapmaker, fistfighter, swordsman, herbalist & survivalist is going a bit overboard. Take a few things that he has had time to practice and stick with them. Survivalist, herbalist, fistfighter, perhaps? I'd say that knowing how to hunt things goes under Survivalist a bit, but make it a "normal" hunter. Perhaps even "basic knowledge of firearms", though I think that was what you were going for.

Secondly is his powers. He's a Wendigo, true, but the whole Blood Tracking thing seem to be a bit unlike the Wendigos (from what I just read up on). That, and it's a bit overpowered. His ability to track someone down increasing if he gets a taste of their blood (I.E - Catching their scent = making it easier to find them) is acceptable, but knowing exactly where they are is too much.

Then there's his supernatural strength and speed. I think that by "mindblowing supernatural" (and here I'm only going by assumptions) that you mean something akin to Shounen Anime Protagonist Speed and Strength. Him being faster and stronger than a normal human (twice, thrice as strong, perhaps a bit more?) is okay, but (and again, assumptions only) going to ridiculous degrees is something I'd like to avoid. On the topic of speed and strength, unless he has trained his Human Body to be at the top of human physique, then he will only be a normal human. He doesn't get any bonuses from his Shifting unless he is shifted.

AND THIS COUNTS FOR ALL OF YOU!
Something I forgot to mention, you can only perform minor magical feats when you aren't Shifted. For example, Lily wouldn't be able to make very powerful illusions when she's in her human form. If, however, she changes to her Hybrid or Fox form, she becomes much more powerful. Also, while changing to your full form will give you some advantages, you don't actually increase that much in power from Half to full (if you have a Hybrid & Pure form).

For Thule Alexander, his Howl of Dread that makes people go "I... don't wanna be here" would be somewhat realistic in his Human form, plus a bit heightened senses, perhaps.
If you want to :P
Never!
Liz - "This is madness!"
Gregory - "This is politics."
And Gregory/Evan is Captain Jack Sparrow who fucks up every expection of every deity in the universe and votes for someone who /isn't/ himself.
