Born: 20 February 1977 (age 44)
Residence: Brooklyn, New York
Occupation(s): Entrepreneur, Philanthropist, Lobbyist
Religion: Catholic
Net Worth: 31.8 billion USD

Brief History (Pre-Incident): The youngest son of wealthy French immigrants whom fled France for New York City in the late 1960's to escape the period of civil unrest incited by ardent leftists Pierre was an anomaly; though he never experienced life in the homeland of his ancestors, Pierre realized he could never fully embrace American culture due to his foreign family and thusly remained an outsider observing the ways of his adoptive homeland. Much to the chagrin of his family Pierre recognized at a young age that he possessed an intrinsic ability to manipulate others into carrying out his bidding and derived great joy in pitting his siblings against each other; this antisocial behavior coupled with his intelligence and unbridled ambition was a constant source of strife between young Pierre and his parents (his father in particular, who was under the impression that Pierre's nature pointed to him being a child of an illicit affair). Pierre grew to resented his parents' bourgeois lifestyle not because he believed in wealth disparity, but because his parents squandered their fortune on worldly pursuits and not on buying political influence; by the time he was eighteen his parents' savings was whittled away and they both would die in severe poverty. Allegedly Pierre was secretly siphoning money from his parents accounts for years, but there is no concrete proof of this only rumors. After graduating from Yale with near perfect marks and a degree in Political Science, Pierre entered the free-market determined to gain both wealth and power; he accomplished this by profiting off of various projects his more technically inclined classmates were working on as...he made millions as an investor and is credited as helping bringing the world into the "internet-age" while the true inventors of these ground breaking technologies were relegated to obscurity. His frequent bipartisan lobbying efforts caused the New York Times to nickname him "the shadow-president"; politically he is known to be non-committal on major issues and able to hide his real intentions. Many speculate his philanthropy is a ruse to garnish public goodwill and his efforts to expand Yellowstone National Park have been lauded in the press as a cheap ploy. He is set to make an address at the aforementioned park in order to bring the expansion issue to the so-called "court of public opinion" as legislation related to the matter has stalled in Congress due to debates over government spending.

Post-Incident: The strange magic that encompasses the earth has transformed Pierre from a politically questionable statesman into a changeling (an insect-like equine) that feeds off of ambient emotions in order avoid starvation and in Pierre's case to also retain his humanoid form; the irony is that his vice of negatively manipulating others emotions to best serve himself has become his curse. A man who once forged a political dynasty from the shadows has become an alien in his own kingdom; once thriving on hate and mistrust, he needs love and compassion to live.

Abilities, Traits and Powers:

Psychic Navigation - Changelings are natural empaths and therefore can sense the presence of others through their emotions...it is possible that this is an evolutionary trait as Changelings require ambient emotions to survive; it is speculated that a fully nourished high level changeling can locate prey hundreds of miles away. However, Changelings like Pierre can only detected beings in their general vicinity. Changelings can also feed off of these distant emotions they detect (as long as they are ambient), though this can be a solution to fight short term hunger, distance usually dilutes the potency of the emotions and it is also hard to judge if the target is going through a state of emotional flux. The later aforementioned effect is why Changelings shapeshift and infiltrate a foreign society as an observed target's emotions are easier to judge and possibly manipulate.

Exoskeleton: Due to its bug-esque genetic makeup a Changeling's hide is almost triple the thickness of a regular horse's.

Flight: While in its base form a Changeling can use its wings to fly short distances; longer distances require a Changeling to be fully nourished.

Emotion Drain: As previously mentioned Changelings feed off of the ambient emotions (Happiness, Joy, Love and so on) produced by other sentient creature. While it is not particularly dangerous if a Changeling feeds off of your emotions for a short period of time, long term (or if one allows a Changeling uninterrupted feeding over the span of a few years) it can be detrimental to one's health. The side effects of short term feeding range from a brief period of nausea to unpleasant thoughts and/or dreams; the effects of long term feeding are crippling depression, suicidal thoughts, a strange feeling of hollowness, loss of energy, and eventually a permanent paralyzation that results in one's death. Some report developing a dependency on the emotional draining process and required outside assistance to save them from and untimely demise. Certain types of magic can be effective in blocking a Changeling from feeding on you; for the non-magically inclined it is suggested that one attempt to quickly incapacitate Changeling by putting oneself in a negative state of mind or by severing the horn of the creature if it is foolish enough to openly attempt a feeding. Individuals who have regulated their emotions through years of stoic rituals (ex. meditation) are less likely to be incapacitated by this process and can in some cases mentally ward off a Changeling. Though it is rare that a Changeling will put aside subterfuge and attempt to drain one's emotions in an attack (as negative emotions such as fear can be toxic or even deadly to a Changeling) a severely malnourished creature is also a desperate one and like a rabid dog will lash out in an attempt to gain a temporary reprieve from their suffering. Subterfuge is a Changeling's greatest asset and most people would not notice their emotions being drained; as long as the Changeling in question does not overindulge. It is suggested that without a hive an individual Changeling could potentially develop a particular taste for a certain ambient emotion in lieu of pursuing the certain emotion favored by the Hive's central leader.

Shapeshifting: This is the trait Changelings are most know for and obviously where the species name derives from; Changeling's can take the form of any individual they have seen in order to blend into a foreign population. Keeping up a guise drains a lot of energy and it is not practical for a Changeling to stay out of base form for long.

Bio:



Personality:

Nathan is an extremely fierce human being when it comes to business, owning no amount of mercy at all. However at leisure, he is an extremely perfect idol of the idle 20th century gentleman. Extremely sophisticated and quite dapper, both in apparel and character. His manners are beyond noble, but he is quite easygoing when there is a drink and would even get into a barbaric fistfight and demonstrate his once lauded meanstreets "Power Jab".

Nathan is quite humble but he never bothers to get into the affairs of those he could deem below him, networth wise speaking. He would rather avoid fruitless talks with common people and is more interested in sophisticated circles.

Nathan is the kind of man that both drives a Bently to work while rocking Mozart in thr morning, but sporting a thousand hundred helmet and speeding in a Suzuki Ninja while listening to vulgar rap music. He knows his drinks, his threads, and certainly he knows his women.

Transformation Info:

After the "Green Flash in the Heavens", Nathan turned into a being that transforms into Nature's response to hostility and ill souls. He owned an Oil Company that really discarded any effort to preserve the green part of the world, it was only ironically appropriate that he would turn into the entity that savors Nature. A Guardian and Saint to the powers of Nature, he thinks it is nature, could be something much more higher or sinister.

Nathan's ability in a nutshell is the ability to change his physical size to extreme magnitudes using the power of nature. Basically whenever he "grows" into a giant or swings a hundred foot punch it is usually twigs, trees, barks, and leaves doing the "growing". He would however control and learn to master his new powers before even growing a twig on his index finger.

A side effect to his transformation is his gradual personality change, everytime he "grows" it is someone less Nathan and more something else that is in his body and head. This will cause extreme psychological breakdowns to Nathan, and various internal fuck ups.

Weapons: His words and fleet of sailing boats.

Appearance:



Name: Darla Ann Thompson

Age: 23

Before the Cataclysm: Being the youngest of five children was never easy, especially considering that Darla Ann was the only girl. The boys were always so overbearing! Most annoying of all was Bobby Keith, Darla Ann’s twin and elder brother by 3 hours. He had always felt the need to stick his nose into his sister’s business. Like that time in high school when he had roughed up Darla Ann’s ex-boyfriend. Or the time in college when he tried to hook up with his sister’s girlfriend. To be fair, Keith had not known about his sister’s fluid sexuality and assumed the poor girl was a lonely friend. What a jerk… but we digress.

Darla Ann, like her parents, was always on the fringe of what was the social norm. Her parents had been hippies, but traded in that life for a family and a sprawling ranch in Texas. Even after settling down, they were quick to startle the nearby community by raising the Thompson children to think on their own and respect the world around them. Not to mention the weird ranch they owned. Not one animal ever died of anything but natural causes on the Thompson Ranch. Darla Ann was a liberal naturalist, an amateur herbalist, a practicer of Zen Buddhism, an advocate of non-monogamy, a gentle-hearted pacifist (except when it came to her twin), a struggling vegetarian, and a devoted student with big aspirations. After graduating from UC-Berkely, Darla Ann headed to Georgia Tech to earn her graduate degree in Environmental Engineering with an emphasis on renewable energies. She was beginning a research-fellowship as part of her PhD program at Yellow Stone during the Spring of 2021.

Changes: The air isn’t the only thing that has a green tint; so does Darla Ann’s skin. And it’s starting to seem really odd that her phone battery hasn’t gone down in the last few hours… Weird.

Stuff:

Name: Diane Bright

Age: 26

Appearance: Please, do not mind the battle ax.

Items: Button up top, jeans, boots, satchel of pens, pencils, notebooks, and an attendance sheet. First aid kit, survival knife, flares, and flare gun.

A free trip, all expenses paid, to Yellow Stone Park. The class even got to stay in cabins. It was the chance of a life time for the school teacher, really. Give her kids an experience, and another reason to be called the coolest teacher of Winter Grade School. That was a week before the entire world blew up.

[A little basic, I know, but I've never been big on the huge bios.]

Name: Hector Williams

Born: 31 October 1966 (age 55)
Residence: Rome, Georgia
Occupation(s): Co-Founder of D.A.M. (Defense Against Marxism), Radio Host
Religion: Baptist
Net Worth: 180 million USD

History (Pre-Incident): Born in the Deep South to poor white farmers young Hector was the middle child in a particularly large family; being a premature birth, Hector spent his formative years as the "runt of litter" becoming an easy target for his much larger siblings and his drunkard father. His particular situation allowed an uncontrollable sea of rage to brew underneath his frail exterior and first introduced him to the concept that might made right; his mother sensing the turmoil within the boy tried to direct him towards religion, but this only led the lad to zealotry. His childhood pastor a fiery orator frequently preached that God required a vanguard of good young men to fight the hordes of lustful degenerates serving Satan; worse yet the pastor frequently mentioned an eventual cleansing of the filth of the world through "holy war".

Once puberty set in Hector grew from a scrawny runt into a gargantuan young individual hell bent on revenge against his former tormentors; all who wronged him suffered at the ends of his fists...even his father. However, it turned out that mere revenge did not satisfy him; he decided to use his new found might to enforce his rigid moral standards on his family and peers. However, puberty brought to light the major contradiction that would haunt Hector for the rest of his life, his homosexuality; turns out that Hector had a little more than brotherly love for other men...fearing this attraction he attempted to suppress these dark urges, but to no avail.

Unable to fully rid himself of these feelings; he enrolled himself in football as it allowed him not only social prestige, but allowed him to covertly enact voyeuristic pursuits. His sheer size and willpower made Hector an amazing linebacker and he led his high school team to the state championships three years in a row. While, many colleges offered the rising star lucrative scholarships, he chose to play football for West Point while pursuing a military oriented education. While not a particularly bright student, Hector managed to graduate as a second lieutenant in Army where his extreme dedicated allowed him to slowly move up the ranks until he reached the rank of Three-star Lieutenant General.

What hindered his progress in the armed forces was Hector's extremely conservative borderline fascist ideology; in sharp contrast to official Army policy Hector was outspoken with his political views and frequently criticized liberal policies in the media.

What propelled Hector Williams into the national and international spotlight was the 2017 Presidential order discharging the firebrand from the military and stripping him of his rank for allegedly indoctrinating subordinates with reactionary political opinions; Hector vociferously opposed the President in the press and gained sympathy from many. This sympathy would have been short-lived, but the 2017 Marxist Revolution in Greece and the subsequent formation of a "worker's state" set off leftist revolutions across the globe with Mexico, Italy, and even France falling to Communist revolutionaries by 2021; the aforementioned events coupled with Anti-Revisionists seizing full control of the Chinese Communist Party in 2018 and ushering in a "Second Cultural Revolution" in order to dismantle State Capitalism lead to a surge of rightist counter-revolutionary organizations to emerge.

In the United Sates Hector Williams who transitioned from a disgraced general to a political radio host was among the first to capitalize on the fear of proletariatization and help set up a paramilitary force determined to use violent means to combat the supposed "red tide"; usually under police protection these armed hooligans broke strikes and dismantled peaceful assemblies. By 2021 the D.A.M.'s membership numbers ranges in the millions.

It is during the 2017-2021 period where Hector Williams became associated with Pierre Athene, a shadowy lobbyist vying for more power; Hector despite his hostility to Washingtonian insiders was lured under Athene's thumb through carefully crafted manipulation and has become universally known within political circles as "Athene's Mad Dog". While Pierre weaves policy in the shadows, Hector and his organization have been reduced to acting as a visual representation of Pierre's strength. Hector sees Pierre not only as a benefactor, but as a friend much to the later's chagrin.
