Name: Vhaako Dorchamháin
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Race: Unaru
Height/Weight: Varies
Appearance:
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Race: Unaru
Height/Weight: Varies
Appearance:
In his purest form, that of the Unaru, he is a slate colored mist, with golden eyes like a wolf.Picture: Personality:
His most common form is that of a grolm, a reptilian wolf. It has reptilian eyes that blink horizontally, a spine crest along its back, and the tail is spiked. In every other way, however, it is a wolf, with fur on the shoulders and body. Small spikes jut from the fur on the shoulders, and the joints of the legs.
Vhaako is full of hatred for all Magoiyans, with few exceptions of his own species. When his species were nearly eradicated by the decree of the Elders, he vowed an oath never to speak until those responsible were brought to justice.Powers:
He avoided slaughter with the rest of his clan because he had, at the time, been living as a part of the pack with the other grolm. After the death of his loved ones and most of his race, he lived as a beast, and as such, learned to use his empathy as a method of communication. He is a very strong willed, loyal 'man.'
Animal Shifting: Vhaako has mastered the form of the:Weaknesses:
Grolm- (already described above)
Drakken- A bear-like creature that has four eyes, two of which give him a sort of heat vision, and special glands that enable him to feel the vibrations in the air around him.
Drider- A rare breed of arachnid from an asteroid formation near Magoiyo, a drider is two thirds spider, one third nightmare. The chitinous outer skeleton allows it to take quite a beating, and the mandibles are quite intimidating in themselves. On top of the mandibles, each leg ends in a claw, as well as are covered in the setea. The tiny hairs are as long as a thumb, and barbed. The head of the spider has six eyes, and the ridges of the chitin are edged with spikes. When the drider rears up, it has two humanoid arms ending in razor sharp claws used to holding the prey as it shreds it with the mandibles. Driders do not have venom--- rather, they are creatures of strength, speed, and cunning. Their web is fine, but very sticky.
Race Shifting:
Vhaako is capable of currently taking the form of a human, and has mastered the 'were' forms of the grolm and drider.
Physical Shifting:
Vhaako can change his eye color, hair color, size and appearance at will with his power of mind and concentration.
Mental Shifting:
Vhaako cannot change his 'human' personality, but is capable of reverting to a more predatory creature when shifted into the animal forms. He can become one with the pack, quite literally.
Mental Barrier:
Vhaako has developed his mental barriers cleverly, formulating them around the predatory instincts that he learned from the animals he has lived amongst. Within the middle of that wild, chaotic entity lurks the true Vhaako. Getting to this part of his mind requires intensive effort, and a very strong will to survive the desire to hunt from the predatory barrier.
Telepathy:
Basic telepathy, for communication and little else. Vhaako has no need to read minds: he can smell emotions, like a wolf.
Empathy:
Vhaako has a form of advanced telepathy learned from the animals he has lived amongst. Although Vhaako vowed to not speak until justice was given its due, he can use empathy to communicate via feelings, images, and memories. **To prevent confusion, I'll basically outline what he's trying to say via the empathy**
Excessive form shifting causes extreme wear and tear, and is a true strain on both his sanity and will. Vhaako must rest after long battles, to recover his willpower and fortitude.Other Skills:
Vhaako is the perfect predator. When he stalks his prey, he is nearly unnoticeable, even by the most talented hunters. He has hunted the most dangerous game of all for most of his life--- demons.History:
Unaru hate demons, viewing them as abominations of nature and destroyers of the balance they hold so dear.
Vhaako is a master at fighting without weapons. He uses two hand-held fist weapons that have blades that run along his forearms. He uses his sharp teeth, claws, and weapons to shred his enemies to pieces.
He also has a suit of armor that was specially crafted to morph with him into the grolm / drakkenforms. The armor is a sort of breastplate, with protective metal on the arms as well.
Little is known of Vhaako's past, or his age. He survived the butchering of his clan because he was on his sojourn with the grolm when the raiders came and slaughtered everyone.
The Unaru require any who wish to assume the form of an animal to first become part of that animal's species before sanctioning the transformation. For Vhaako to have mastered the grolm and drakken is a statement about his willpower and fortitude, much less his patience. To have found a colony of the elusive drider, and to claim a place amongst their brood is quite an accomplishment, unprecedented even.
