Current Classes: None

Passed Classes: None

Current Points: 0

Natural weapons: Claws, Teeth (Only in Lycan form)

Trained weapons: None, prefers natural weapons

Weakness:
- Silver stinks: As expected, silver weapons can grievously harm and kill him effortlessly. Attacks from Silver also negate his regenerative properties completely. Silver armor is also completely impenetrable to him, and as such he is INTENSELY fearful of it.

- Were-Animal in the room: His sense of stealth really only works at night and in the woods. Otherwise he takes up a lot of space when in Lycanthrope form, and is VERY easy to spot.

- Beware of Angry Dog: It's easy to annoy him, it's easy to frighten him, it's easy to make him laugh, surprisingly. But it is DIFFICULT to make him mad, and there is a VERY good reason why you shouldn't. Put it simply?

- Not the man he used to be: when under a full moon, he typically disappears from normal human or monster interaction for a few days. The reason is that he must remain in lycanthrope form during these times, and he becomes SAVAGELY aggressive.

- No Vampires allowed: He couldn’t tell you exactly WHY he doesn’t like vampires, but he is intensely defensive, fearful, and aggressive towards them initially.

- Crippling Overspecialization: Perhaps his greatest Achilles heel is that most if not all his great physical abilities are exclusively in his werewolf form. He is generally unremarkable otherwise.

- Hounds Nose: His sense of smell is the only one that spans both of his forms, and as such it can be a very useful tool, but also a massive hindrance when overpowering smells enter his life. He can be incapacitated from a perfume bottle if the fragrance is strong enough.

- Cats are smarter than dogs: While he is definitely cunning, brutally so, he is not capable of much higher thinking whilst in lycanthrope form. As such, he usually allows his instincts or others to dictate his actions. Otherwise, his typical response is either “scout” if it’s a task that would require no physical altercation, or “hunt”, for those that would.

SKILLS:

Major Skills:
Super Strength: As he is large and in charge (when in lycanthrope form), he can overtake most grown animals with barely any effort. Otherwise he is at simple above average strength when in human form.

Super Senses: Being part wolf, his sense of smell and hearing are heightened when in lycanthrope form. The only one that carries over into human form however, is smell.

Regeneration: Being a Lycanthrope, Ozzie can heal his own injuries fairly quickly, however extremely serious injuries, such as an amputated limb or a lost or impacted organ, he will require assisstance, or it's likely he'll bleed out and die. His most practical use of this however, is that he rejuvenates quickly while physically exerting himself. This allows him to at least outlast opponents in battle, if he can’t outpower or outrun them. As previously mentioned, Silver completely negates this ability.

Minor Skills:
Natural Cunning: While not "smart" by any stretch of the imagination when in Lycanthrope form, he knows EXACTLY how things would run away from him or would try and attack him, and thus is very well versed in pursuing targets, tracking enemy or friend alike and incapacitating them.

Good singer: He picked it up from singing with his cousins and brothers. This also means his howls are varied.

Personality:
Older than he looks – His upbringing leaves him well travelled and experienced with the world around him, and thus he speaks with the tired air of someone 20 years his senior.

Listener – Ozzie isn't much of a talker, but he always listens. He is always willing to hear a bad day, or even bad thoughts towards oneself.

Technical Pacifist - He rarely lashes out in anger, having plenty of reasons why he wouldn’t want to instigate fights, first of which being that if he snaps, it is difficult to bring him back down.

Prudish – While he does not dislike sex as a concept for any particular reason, he believes wanton sexual behavior is dangerous, and as such, is rather uncomfortable around scantily clad women and men.

Trustworthy – Ozzie makes a point of keeping secrets and repaying debts. Even if it is at his own expense financially or physically.

Silent hunter – He rarely speaks, but when he does, it’s usually very brief but poignant.

Intimidating – Silent, tall and not exactly easy to sneak up on, he is typically not all that welcoming of those who would annoy him, instigate a fight with him, or otherwise take advantage of him in some way.

Pack mentality – Prefers working in a group. Though his own sense of pride will not allow much sway in who gets to be the leader (spoilers: him), if he is not the designated leader, he will carry out all tasks asked of him without question.

Deadpan Comic - Occaisonally will say something hilarious without meaning to.

Tenacious – A large portion of his successes as a fighter and as a hunter comes from his sheer determination to complete his objective. This can hinder him as he becomes generally uncaring to the suffering of others if that involves getting in his way, and he can give away his position fairly quickly.

Lone Wolf - Most of the decisions in his family were made in personal family or entire family groups. This is the very first time he has EVER been allowed to make decisions of his own, and as such seems indecisive.

Paranoid Hypocrite – growing up a popularly man-eating monster, and seeing people’s reactions to him, he is VERY…VERY…VERY…wary about who he tells information to. Down to even basic information. He is also, in his mind anyway, properly paranoid as to what the headmistress, students, or any teacher’s goals are, noting some of their origins. Given his own origin, and what he turns into when the moon is full, he could easily be pinned as world’s largest hypocrite.

Big Eater – While he rarely fits any description a person who eats a lot might have, he is quite the connesseur of food, and as such will happily chomp down whatever is placed in front of him.

Character's Background:
"We are not Monsters because Humanity is beneath us, we are monsters because we are the Inferior, and the strange. Humanity loves to snuff out both, and thus in spite of our efforts, we are lost, and will continue to be until time eradicates us. I come to an inevitable conclusion: We have become the prey, and we must now adapt…or we will perish." – The Diary of Euchariah Hahriman

A werewolf born into a large pack of immediate relatives, Ozzie’s family has always lived in northern Maine, and has always lived in what they believe to be justifiable fear of humanity. Much of their old legends and culture tells that they are part of what was once a carefree and wild race that found itself at odds with humanity over food supply, and the altercations between the two went violent quickly. When humanity found out about their inherent weaknesses, most notably silver, they took full advantage, and all werewolves were scattered across the globe and forced into hiding.

Whether this is the original tale or a massive corruption of oral and written history, the simple fact that remains is that Ozzie has been living the last 23 years of his life in a constant state of underlying apprehension towards many a non-lycanthropic person. While he does not have it as bad as his parents or grandparents did, he certainly has inherited some of the apprehension and his quiet nature didn’t really afford him much popularity growing up, though not so much as to be an outcast, simply a quiet observer of the lives of school children and their adult brethren, occasionally leaving for “camping trips” or “Family retreats” every so often when the moon was full, a relief for him, as keeping control of himself from any minor infarction on his character that might bring him back to the monster he kept being told he was seemed insurmountable at times, and on occasion, was broken, with near-disastrous results.

The monster academy has been open knowledge for his family for some time, but it was only recently that the decision to send him was made, as most large family decisions are handled by the Alpha Male in his pack, in this case an oldest Uncle who felt like being in constant apprehensive fear was not for their young, and began a campaign to send them abroad and let them learn humanities ways, and to perfect the process of keeping human...even during the full moon.

Roleplay Info:

Roleplay example: Walking out onto the courtyard is Ozzie, He inhales deeply, noticing a new scent within the courtyard. He smirks a little. "Well. At least I'm not alone for too long." he brings his gaze down to a new face and smiles, giving a slight wave. "good evening, you're up late." he says pleasantly...

Roleplay schedule: Typically done through dA notes, the MA Chats or Skype. I am usually on at night late or in the middle of the day. Expect to be doing an RP for a little longer than a couple of hours. I can do script or lit based.
