NINETEEN 5/11"/144 | MALE STUDENT - FRESHMAN |
[attr="class","appinfo"]
[attr="class","appbold"]PERSONALITY:
- say one thing about corwin; say he is more than what he seems. while on the surface he may come off as an apprehensive young man, do not let that delude you into thinking he is weak. no, stronger than his taciturn nature leads on, he is a clever individual, always aware and observant of his surroundings. a quick learner, he likes knowing as much as he can before he dives into a situation, preferring to only take calculated risks. he is meticulous to a fault about such details and is obsessive as well, but is determined to do things in such a way that allows him a sense of control over the situation as a defence for his lack thereof surrounding others. for that reason, he keeps himself guarded, keeping the finer details of his life locked up inside himself as if to fulfill his escapist tendencies.
yet beneath his obvious insecurities, however, it becomes clear that he is a kind-hearted person. sympathetic to others needs and trustworthy too, he can be guaranteed to be relied on if help is needed, even if his tactless words may make him seem otherwise. his social skills have never been his strongest point, often spilling out what comes to mind, but he likes to believe he makes up for it in his welcoming attitude.

[attr="class","appbold"]HISTORY:
- born an average, everyday human being, corwin did not come from a family with any special powers to speak of. rather, he lived a normal life in a small town, and honestly? he was fine with it. however, that all changed for corwin when he was seventeen and got attacked while on a camping trip. although corwin only retains a foggy recollection of the night's events having blacked out somewhere along, when he woke up, he found himself in the emergency room with four deep scratches running from his right shoulder blade down towards his back. the doctor told him that a wild animal had attacked the campsite, and that despite the heavy bleeding he sustained, he was lucky to be alive—not every camper was. apparently, what the doctor failed to mention was that he had contracted lycanthropy that night too.
the first transformation was the worst given that he had no preparation, no idea of its occurrence. he felt off that day, his senses wrecking havoc on him, and his body feeling ill with the changes. that was the first and last time he turned inside his home, nearly taking the lives of his family when they questioned the ruckus coming from his room. luckily, however, nobody had been killed or worst, scratched that night, although he did destroy a lot of their furniture. after that night though, corwin realized what he had become and since then, he has been trying his best to deal with it. his family too, although he could sense their fear towards him. he could sense everyone's fear towards him, actually—secrets were not safe in small towns. they thought he was a danger, a monster. corwin left the first chance he could.
that was when he met bast. he was taking a year off then, trying to figure out his life or so he told himself, when he had awoken to find a strange creature staring at him. at first, his reaction was simple—run away as far as he could. and he did, losing sight of the creature and forgetting all about it as he went through the next month of his life. following his next change, however, he had encountered the creature once more, and a third time afterwards. before he could run the last time though, a voice called out to him inside his head—it was the creature's. it wanted to keep playing. apparently during his transformations he had been playing with it, which he took with uncertainty, but he returned the next day and the next. and so their bond grew, although corwin still does not understand it. one thing is for certain though—a link exists between them, and because of that, when he had decided to attend vireximus university, it was clear that bast was to accompany him.

[attr="class","appbold"]POWERS:
- PRIMARY POWER: werewolf physiology. corwin is afflicted with lycanthropy, a curse that transforms him into a werewolf come every full moon. forced to become a creature lost between man and beast, he bears a large resemblance to a wolf, but is notably larger and can walk around on his hind legs as if he were human. furthermore, when turned, he possesses an enhanced condition, giving him greater strength, speed, and senses compared to that of a normal human or even a wolf, but takes on a feral mind at the cost. when not transformed, however, he possesses the attributes of an average human being, but does retain his heightened senses and a fondness for red meat. beyond that, the distinction between him and the wolf is rather clear—full moon equals wolf, not full moon equals him. yet maybe it is just his paranoia talking, but corwin swears, sometimes he can feel his inner wolf bleeding through beyond its one night a month, affecting him both mentally and physically. especially in a time of crisis.
- SECONDARY POWER: mind link with bast not exactly his own doing, or at least, corwin does not believe it is, but he has become linked to bast, a strange creature he encountered during one of his transformations. mentally linked to one another in a deeper sense than he would like, the two can communicate to one another through telepathy, sense each others presence, and as much as he hates it, feel each others pain.
difficult, is to label what kind of creature bast is, especially when even he does not know where he came from, recalling nothing but the place being dark and dank. corwin believes he was an experiment of some sort, however, due to his appearance. standing a little over a foot tall, bast appears to be a combination of bird, reptile, and even beast. possessing a small beak on his face and wing-like protrusions on his forelegs, he has both black scales and black fur covering his body, and appears to be a collection of predatory animals spliced together. a capable hunter, even small as he is, his body is blessed with two weapons—his claws and his tail. the latter of which is notable for the spikes at its end that can wreak havoc to his prey.
young, bast is still very much a child. packed full of energy, he is a friendly-enough creature, often seen rushing back and forth, desiring to play with anyone he meets as if he were a young puppy. loud and mischievous, he views the world as his playground, unaware of the dangers it possesses, and does exactly what he wants, not understanding that his 'playing' can often get a bit rough at times. yet despite being also a bit volatile at times, he is still very much a capable companion, confident in his abilities, and willing to protect corwin with an unwavering loyalty.
