Mas BagusHere's another shapeshifter.Sin Eater“Second verse, same as the first. You can scream now.”
Tyler Harven
Age: 14 (physically)
Appearance:Currently standing at 4’10, with a fairly lean build and a head of perpetually messy blond hair that he’s entirely given up on fixing, Tyler rarely shows any change in his signature bored expression, even in the most intense of moments. He doesn’t have a specific style, but his usual attire consists of a long-sleeved cream-coloured shirt, a sleeveless overshirt and dress pants, though his style changes with age. Literally.
Role at SDN: Dispatcher (former Hero)
Background:Born into a generational occultist family, Tyler was cursed from birth, his soul intrinsically bound to a “malevolent” creature from below. His parents, in their fanatic reverence, permanently altered the course of his life. With an origin like that, it was almost certain that his life would inevitably end up going down a dark path.
Yet, call it fate or simply luck, but the trajectory of his life was shifted by one simple act of stupidity from someone being at the wrong place at the right time. All that led to his family’s estate being raided by a collaboration between heroes and the police, with most of his family being either killed or arrested. Tyler, barely out of his infancy at the time, was sent into foster care, where he lived a fairly unremarkable life for years. A precocious child, he showed a high capacity for learning at a young age, though it didn’t help much with finding a family that actually wanted him and wasn’t put off by the “thing” that always followed him.
It wasn’t until he got older that his “powers” manifested in a rather gruesome manner.
The aftermath of that incident presented him with two paths. He chose the third option and decided to have a conversation, coming to a “mutually” beneficial agreement with his counterpart.
Years passed, and he eventually found himself becoming a hero, of a sort. Despite the terrifying appearance of the creature he could become, he was surprisingly well-liked—and feared a pretty healthy amount—since the criminals that he captured rarely, if ever, reoffended.
However, it didn’t take long for things to get complicated. Each time he transformed, he lost time, or rather, he gained it. At first, it was only a day at a time, but the more active he became as a hero, the more those days turned into weeks, then months, and then, finally, years. Now, with the appearance of a boy in his early teens despite being an adult, Tyler temporarily stepped back from the line of duty.
Fielding a kid was “bad optics”, so he transferred to Claremont for the foreseeable future, or until he figured out a way to make a better deal.Appearance: When not transformed, Tyler generally wore darker clothing with a hoodie and a half-face mask to conceal his identity.
Powers: The Sin EaterTyler’s powers allow him to transform into a creature, unfortunately known as the “Sin Eater”. However, it comes with a cost; every time he transforms, he gets younger, and the longer he stays transformed, the more his age regresses. Outside of that, he’s physically pretty much a normal teenager, if one somewhat skilled at keeping himself alive.

A beast of ravenous hunger and ethereal grace, the Sin Eater is strong and hardy, capable of phasing through most obstacles. Both bipedal and quadrupedal, it can traverse nearly any terrain with ease. It can consume nearly anything, particularly people, and store them inside its “stomach” for a period of time. It feeds off the negative energies of those it swallows to sustain itself and then regurgitates them, alive and whole. Though it can’t “speak” in the most general sense, it can mimic the sounds of voices it has heard.Stats:

Vigour: 4

Charisma: 1

Sorta of an original take on the Monster Girl Idea from Invincible? Pretty neat.
