Description Name: Elijah

Age: 19

Height: 6'3 Human, 6'7 Half form, 7'3 Full Werewolf 

Monster type/species Description: Werewolf

Grade: Freshman

Glamor item:  A braided string anklet
Credit Count: 0

Natural weapons: Teeth and claws

Trained weapons: None

Weakness: 
Full Moon: If he is exposed to moonlight during the full moon, he will transform into his full werewolf form and remain in that state until exposed to its light again once the full moon has passed. During this time, he has no control of his body or recollection of the events that occurred in his werewolf form.

Healing: Although fast healing is a benefit to him, it does come at the price of pain and discomfort. Additionally, when healing, he can't move or exert any energy or else the process will stop, leaving him open to any attacks or malicious intent.

Silver: Like most werewolves, silver can inflict pretty severe and long-lasting damage to his body. If these wounds heal, they tend to leave noticeable scars. 

Major Skills:
Endurance: No matter how active he is, he seems to never get tired, which is especially useful when sparing and wrestling.

Shapeshifting: Although involuntary, Elijah's form changes under the light of the full moon, allowing him to transform into a full werewolf. While in this state, his strength and agility are heightened.

Night vision: He can see quite well at night, though not as well as in his full werewolf form.

Minor Skills:
Speed: He can run at very high speeds but only in short bursts. Max time is about 15 seconds with a 10 minute cooldown.

Healing: Non-lethal wounds can be healed within the hour but only when he is not exerting any energy. Wounds will not begin to heal until he relaxes and rests completely.

Senses: His senses of sight, hearing and smell are more enhanced than normal.

Personality: He is easily excitable, loves to wrestle and play, and thrives on praise and snacks. He reacts mostly on impulse, only worrying about consequences afterwards, if he worries at all. Although his parents, especially his mother, attempted to instill basic behaviors and etiquette, its still difficult for him to immediately notice the impact his actions can have on others. Large crowds and gatherings make him uncomfortable, as well as loud noises and big cities. Essentially, he's just a large puppy.


Character's Background: Elijah was born to a human father and werewolf mother and was homeschooled along with his 3 sisters. His family lived in an isolated area away from any unwanted attention, where only family, and trusted friends would know where to find them. The household was always cautious and aware of the full moon and the effects it had on the majority of the family. As a rule, when the full moon was out, they took care to stay indoors and away from windows, as well as to stay away from their father, being the only human amongst them. However, when you have four unruly children, there's bound to be at least one troublemaker; against warnings and rules, one of his siblings exposed herself to the full moon's light and transformed while enclosed in the house with her family. In an effort to protect the rest of his family, Elijah attempted to subdue his sister while keeping conscious of the light coming into the room via the window. Unfortunately, his divided attention resulted in her catching him off guard and taking a big bite out of his shoulder, infusing his body with an extra boost of werewolf genetics. After the incident, Elijah's behavior began to get more unruly and wild as he got older, the beast in him gaining more precedence over his human DNA. His parents found it increasingly difficult to control him and sought the assistance of the academy to help him.

Roleplay Info:
Roleplay example: Elijah was too excited to keep still, he had essentially explored most of the Academy before even heading to his new room. There were so many new smells and areas. And people! Half people? He didn’t know, there was just so much everywhere. After wandering into a few other people’s rooms, and subsequently getting kicked out (sometimes invited in??), he had made his way to the one that was meant for him. He sniffed the air excitedly, moving to smell the door handle and then the floor. The door’s handle was weird and unfamiliar but eventually he got it open, nearly bursting into the room and immediately looking around to find the source of the strange smell. Before he could advance any further, something else caught his attention: a bed! It had been so long since he slept in one, he had forgotten what it was like. He dashed to the unoccupied one, arms first, and tumbled into it, rolling around in the blankets and laughing to himself. “Ahhh so nice! I forgot they’re so soft…” A few moments in of being bundled, he was suddenly reminded of his original task. He looked over to the other bed which currently housed an interesting looking creature which somewhat resembled a frog? Elijah stretched out his body over the edge of the bed, hoping to get a better look and sniff, before falling off completely, cocooned in sheets as he rolled over to his new roommate. 

Discord nickname: Akukooberra

Roleplay Schedule: Afternoons/late nights are best for me, but I'm on and off throughout the day.
