Thorn Russo is a wicked awesome Russian pirate who came over when 7 European wolves came to 'Souls. He helped found Syemv and was the pack's cook. He left and returned after a few years when Syemv became Aremys. Then he left. He came back again because Souls is awesome and was a loner. Then he joined Vinatta because they had a brewery.

1.  Lifestyle

1.1  Speech

Thorn speaks with a mild Russian accent that switches to a heavier and disjointed English-Russian mix when he's inebriated or stressed. Often he throws in a Russian word here or there and will often speak in Russian followed closely by the English word. His words flow more fluently in Russian than English although he can speak English very closely to a first language. His accent is similar to Nikolai in Eastern Promises, played by Viggo Mortensen.

Strengths

Strength

CHARACTER learned how to skill in AREA from CHARACTER. Otherwise, Character engaged in PRACTICE to help sharpen this skill. Possibly think about: character's biggest accomplishment/worst failure with skill?

Weaknesses

Weakness

CHARACTER has/has not attempted this skill. Why are they bad at it? What went wrong? Could they improve themselves, or are they incapable?

1.3  Residence

Character resides in Vinatta in his long house (see map). A basic description of the house would go here, along with a short description of any housemates' arrangements.

Previous residences could be listed in a separate paragraph.

2.1  Avatars

By Nat
Voodoo by Pablo

2.2  Forms

Lupus

Large shaggy white wolf with black ear tips, black circles under his green eyes and a salt and pepper tail.

Secui

Rarely appears in this form, aside from size and shape, little changes between between this form and Lupus form.

Optime

In his natural state, his Optime form, Thorn resembles a put together hippie. He wears a modified fedora found in his native Russia; slowly stretched and sewn over many years. Between his natural coloring and ink found through his scavenging he has the equivalent of eye liner, emphasizing his green eyes.

His main article of clothing is a kilt, found and repaired many years ago and altered to include many pockets making it a utili-kilt. He carries most of his smaller possessions with him and only removes it to hunt.

2.3  Build & Species

Are they tall or short? Lean or chubby? How do they carry themselves -- confidently and proudly, or humbly and unassured? There usually aren't significant differences between body types from Lupus to Optime -- lean, thin individuals will remain lean and thin, and thick, muscular individuals will remain thick and muscular.

If they're a hybrid, you can talk about what species your character most resembles, and how the different species play into their appearance -- e.g., doggish build, wolfish undercoat, coyote muzzle, etc.

2.4  Coloration & Fur

Coloration -- many players use Name That Color to help themselves with coloration. If you'd like to show exact colors, Woody Brown is an example for you. If your character has a varied pattern/coat, you can discuss it here. Don't forget to mention their eye color, either.

Regarding their fur -- is it thick or thin? Is the fur wiry or smooth, short or long, wavy or straight?

2.5  Modifications

  • Scars:
    • Location, description. How was it inflicted? Who inflicted it?
  • Tattoos:
    • One tattoo, large pentacle with a crescent moon on either side scarred onto his bicep. Done in Russia.
  • Piercings:
    • Location, description. How was it inflicted? Who inflicted it?
  • Other:
    • Location, description. How was it inflicted? Who inflicted it? Example: Missing toes or a chip in their ear? Do they dye any parts of their fur? Dyeing might be given its own section, if it occupies many parts of their fur.

2.6  Accessories

  • Necklaces? Outfits? How frequently does your character don this item?
  • A second outfit? Another necklace?

3.  Personality

A basic description of the character's personality goes here.

  • Fears:
    • Silence
    • Raptor-type birds
    • Monsters in closets
  • Motivations:
    • Family
    • Happiness
    • Endorphin-high
  • Traits
    • Outgoing
    • Scavenger
    • Adventurer

3.1  Demeanor

Thorn would do anything for his family and friends and sees no need to listen to what others think of his actions. He believes he can physically and emotionally love anyone regardless of species, gender and background and has in the past. He loves to travel and although he thinks he'll be settling down this time, he never makes a promise he can't keep with one hundred percent accuracy.

3.2  Outlook

Optimist/pessimist? Submissive/dominant? Introvert/extrovert? A character who is more introverted might cross his or her arms while talking or avoid eye contact more often. This can also assist others in “reading between the lines” of your posts. While you may not take the time to detail how your character presents him or herself every time they make a move, having a general idea stated in your profile can help players fill in the blanks if they don't know your character so well.

3.3  Ideals

Biases

Big Bias

A big bias goes here, discussed in paragraph form

Other Biases

  • Species: How do they feel about different species, perhaps? Maybe not just coyotes versus wolves, but how they feel about pets, how they feel about prey, etc.
  • Non-Luperci: How do they feel about non-Luperci?
  • Human Behaviors: How do they feel about human behaviors?

Slightly beyond bisexual, Thorn is omnisexual, think Captain Jack Harkness from Torchwood. [Tvtropes warning]
