Science of Animals

@carla6677 I was wondering where this will be taking place.

@Zorogami It's fine, there's no rush.

That's what I was thinking honestly. Just fits a bit better.

Science of Animals

Alexis Maddox

Name
Alexis Maddox

Animal
Peacock Mantis Shrimp

Appearance

(No makeup, hair cut to shoulder length)

Height
5' 7"

Weight
174 lbs

Animal Changes
The most noticeable change in Alexis's appearance was the growth of an extremely hard segmented shell on his back and the top of his arms and fingers. The shell is colored a bright green at his neck, slowly changing to an equally vibrant blue as it goes down his back. On his arms the shell starts at the same green on his shoulders, though it quickly fades into a vivid scarlet, remaining that way down his whole arm.

Sitting on Alexis's head is a pair of flangellated antennae, colored the same scarlet as his arms. These are used for detecting scents and chemicals and scents, vibrations, and even tastes. These antennae do work in air, though are much more effective in water.

Upon closer inspection one would notice Alexis's eyes have changed as well, two additional pupils forming above and below both of his existing ones, giving him three pupils in a vertical line in each eye, the center one developing a mid band across it, and new photoreceptors formed. The surface of his eyes crystallized into a compound eye structure. Along with this Alexis's eyes became easy to move independently, increasing his field of vision. These changes in his eyes allow Alexis to see UV light waves and polarised light waves in addition to the regular visible spectrum, giving him extraordinary sight.

Alexis's musculature was strengthened, most noticeably in his arms, as he now has a punch strength over 500,000 psi (344,738 newtons square centimeter) compared to his previous strength around 200 psi. Not only is he able to turn carbon into synthetic diamonds, Alexis is capable of throwing his punches in only 14 nanoseconds.

His toes have developed a strong blue webbing between them to aid in swimming, but Alexis's true speed in the water comes from the growth of organs called siphons under his shell, which propel water at high speed out of the segments to create thrust. To top it all off, Alexis has developed a set of gills on his neck to filter oxygen from water.

Age
17

Gender
Transsexual

Bio
Alexis was born into the bad part of London, trouble a part of his life from the start. His parents didn't have much wealth, making life a struggle to begin with. Alexis's troubles got worse when he entered school, quickly becoming a victim of bullies. Alexis was born female and given a girl's name, but he identified as male. He called himself Alex, dressed in boy's clothing, but having a female body made him a target.

As he grew older, Alexis's troubles grew as well. Verbal abuse turned physical, and Alexis would often get injured badly. Eventually he tried learning to fight back, though he was still weak and couldn't do much about it. The constant harassment drove Alexis to the use of marijuana to alleviate the stress, and he fell in with the wrong crowd, beginning to hang around various drug dealers and other miscreants.

Alexis got himself into more and more fights, growing slightly stronger and earning some money from his wins in the alleyways, though he also began attracting unwanted attention. Gang members began assaulting him almost everywhere he went, and once again Alexis needed to be even stronger to protect himself.

Eventually his family moved off the mainland to get away from all the problems Alexis got into, though this did not say his desire to become stronger. Hearing about an experimental surgery to combine human and animal dna, Alexis enrolled himself. The Peacock Mantis Shrimp was a perfect match for his dna, with no issue in compatibility. When he awoke, Alexis first noticed the addition of many new colors to his sight, some he could never have imagined. The next thing he noticed was the hard shell that had grown from his skin. Alexis was shocked at first, though he knew what he had gotten himself into and had no remorse.

Personality
Alexis has by no means ever been a "good boy", or girl for that matter. Having grown up living a troubled life he has been negatively influenced, and as such now he is almost exclusively concerned with looking out for himself and having a good time. He is always looking for someone to call a friend, having never had an actual friend before. He is also a hopeless romantic, attracted to both men and women. Although he has never been a pacifist, the Mantis Shrimp dna has made Alexis much more aggressive than before.

Other
Prefers being called Alex.
The mantis shrimp dna combined with his own has made Alexis crave seafood.
Alexis is a habitual marijuana smoker.
Once a week Alexis needs to molt the shell on his hands, as it wears down from the force of his punches. During the molting day he can not punch with his full force, since it would shatter the new forming shell.
Once a month Alexis needs to molt the rest of his shell to accommodate his growth.

@Gunther You just gotta open the tank and siphon it up, really.

@MatthiasAngel I think he means it's a journal of his travel across the country. In the latest journal entry they're in Davenport.

I can't wait to see more characters, honestly. Also, no votes for the theme?

Anyone up for a 1x1? (Causal, some M18+ content, MxM and one FxM plots)

@hyperbunny Sorry for the delayed response. As for characters, I have no real preference one way or the other. I can play males, females, trans, anything really.

@carla6677 I believe my CS is ready for approval.
