[b]Name:[/b] Morpheus S. Snipes [b]Race:[/b] Human/Wereserpent [b]Age:[/b] 30 (and looks significantly older than that.) [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Height:[/b] 6 foot [b]Height Transformed:[/b] 7 foot tall (with an additional 5 feet for just how long his tail is.) [b]Weight:[/b] 230 Pounds [b]Occupation:[/b] Manager of a Fighting Ring. [b]Alignment:[/b] Chaotic Neutral [b]Continent:[/b] Batillus [b]Appearance:[/b] The very seldom amount of time Morpheus decides to appear as his human form, he was quite tall and most of his weight comes from his muscular build. He has long orange-red hair, which is usually tangled and looks unkempt. His has a pale complexion is almost as white as his pearly white teeth with an almost unnatural shine to them, usually wearing a plain long black hooded robe that nearly reaches the ground, preferring to wear the least amount of clothing possible. Wearing sandals, or walks around barefoot. Not wearing anything under the robe. Only giving away his serpent form, with his purple serpent like tongue, his eyes resemble human pupils and both colored a deep bright purple. His fingernails and toenails are usually dirty. And in his wereserpent form that he very much prefers to stay in at all times. Is not quite like many of his kind. A very large snake-like being covered in scales, still possessing human like legs,feet,arms and hands. But with a very long tail, being most of his body length, still able to wrap around various creature easily. His skin feels very slippery, and very warm to the touch. His colors are bright orange and white, being predominantly white with a spiral pattern orange going from him neck to tail. Having fangs that sparkle like diamonds along with his purple snake eyes also glow ominously. His facial expression whether human and not, is rarely smiling, always appearing to be a bad mood. His weapon is an Orb looking like a glass sphere that works like a mirror, able to clearly see a reflection, with a glowing ominous black aura, often appearances of animals will show up through the glass, like a reflection when it's being used. [b]Personality:[/b] He is very unpredictable in his behavior, tends to be hard at work, constantly keeping himself busy with something or taking care of his brother. His mood can swing drastically but its usually bitter and pessimistic towards most. He doesn't have a sense of humor and will always speak bluntly and with as few words as possible to make his point clear. Preferring to have others do the same, mainly keeping their mouths shut. Unless he is using his powers, which he can talk on for hours on end without getting tired. Usually his words come off apathetically as he has very little remorse or regret for his actions. Being a misanthrope and overall loathing anyone that is in his presence for too long. Very quick to judge others and get angry and overly emotional. Also able to get violently horny, and on very seldom occasion become violently hungry as well. Only really deeply caring for himself and his brother, being able to go long lengths for his brother, even putting his needs before his own. However, he is also self aware that he is slowly becoming less and less like he used to be as a human before he turned, which is nearly the opposite of his personality now. He does not usually try to commit acts of evil, finding most fighting pointless and not really enjoying spilling blood or the killing of others. However can become merciless and very persistent when fighting or when he wants something that currently has something in his way. Wanting to at least stay out of trouble, and live a happy life with his brother or at least make sure the ones who witness him making trouble don't open their mouths.

A very strong, nearly crippling phobia, Very specifically for his younger brother who is his only real grip on the very little sanity and the humanity he has left. [*] Ombrophobia (Fear of Rain) It was raining on the day they turned, and on the death of their mother. A lesser phobia than the previous but he hates getting rained on and will quickly find shelter anytime he thinks there is a storm, believing that rain symbolizes bad luck. [/list] [b]History:[/b] Morpheus's birth started out terribly, the mother was very sick all throughout when she was pregnant with him, they feared she would die after the procedure. Plus the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck twice when he got out and even after both seemed to miraculously make it out okay. It was filled with one too many close calls and health issues in his earliest childhood, it's surprising how well it seemed to become afterward. Living in a small but comfortable home in Lucena, with two loving parents. Both of them made a modest living with their dream jobs, the mother was a singer and the father was a builder. Both were usually at home. But, most of his time was spent alone often going on adventures by himself. He never got bored, always keeping himself busy doing something new. He was almost never upset, as his life for most of his youth was average and uneventful but he was content. Always avoided by the other children his age, as he was just slightly off for them. But he never seemed to mind until one day, he wanted somebody to spend time with other than his parents, someone that could go on adventures with him. That prayer was answered when he discovered that he was going to have a baby brother soon. This birth couldn't of been any easier, or gone any more perfectly. Plus, The father got promoted at his job, though it caused him to be away most of the time, they were able to move to a bigger house and continue to live peacefully, though the move didn't make Morpheus very happy, liking their old home he couldn't be any more happy to have a younger brother, spending as much time as he could with him. Playing with him every day, since the children didn't seem to care for Lazurus, much either. His younger brother's name was that because the father got to pick the last name and he apparently did so when he got drunk from a little too much drinking and celebrating with his work buddies, so the mother picked it instead. But he grew up very close to his younger brother and the love for the outdoors. But after a particularly rough storm one day out playing, the mother had to tell them that the father go into an work related accident and died. Causing him to feel depressed and stay indoors an entire year growing scared of the rain, but he was convinced by his younger brother to keep going on adventures. So they did, the mother was struggling with bills but thanks to her friends she was able to at least get by. Raising two children on her own, she struggled to keep in high spirits taking the death even harder. As she quickly changed her personality for the worse, often being abusive mentally and psychically toward them both. They both got through their life supporting each other and remembering how good the past used to be, believing one day their mother would get better, but she only got worse. One day after extremely violent outburst from the mother, they both decided to go far away as possible from the house that they felt was no longer a home. Going on a long journey exploring a bunch of different caves finding them the most fascinating things to explore, suddenly coming upon one of the deepest caves they've had ever traversed, [s]they suddenly discovered something embedded on of one the rocks glowing black, it looked unique and something they had never seen before. Deciding that they could maybe sell it to get better gear for when the went exploring, doing their best to pry it out, from sheer curiosity.[/s] That is what he falsely implanted inside his mind, trying to forget that it was discovered from his brother anger toward him and the orb tempting Morpheus with vengeance and power. Which he foolishly accepted despite his brother's protest. His actions causing an unknown the shocking fate that was thrown upon them, as they both started painfully shapeshifting into strange creatures. It was the scariest moment of both their lives. Realizing their lives were forever change as the entire neighborhood feared and hated them as soon as they discovered what they had become. Including the mother who'd disowned them. They decided they couldn't take anymore ridicule and pain leaving one day without saying goodbye, they both finally had enough and took the quickest airship to Batillus. Making that there new destination, knowing that the lycanthropes were commonplace there so that they would not have to be hated any longer. As they made themselves a true home. Unfortunately, their misfortune and the curse didn't stop there, as overtime the brother's mind grew dimer as he slowly changed his mindset into a bear, no longer retaining any real piece of his humanity. Causing Morpheus to honor his brother by staying in his wereserpent from so that he wouldn't feel ashamed or envious. While simultaneously doing his best to keep what little humanity he had left. Though nowadays even that was getting too much to ask...Now he spent his days living in his work. Running a fighting ring and making money of bets to support himself and his brother. [b]Weapon:[/b] [b]Cursed Orb Of Animalistic Instinct[/b] - This weapon was discovered by Morpheus and Lazarus his brother on an expedition, exploring caves, and cursed them, turning them both into werecreatures. The weapon is a catalyst for most of Morpheus and his brothers actions and behavior over the past decade. It's exact origin and how it was created, is still unknown by him and seemingly everyone else. Technically useless for anyone else in any actual sort of combat, despite being unbreakable its merely a glass ball that would scare any individual without a death wish from getting close. But, it's useful lies in how it highly escalates his one particular power and makes it far more deadly. [b]Pet:[/b] A larger than average bear, who was once his younger brother, who had also turned to werecreature at the same time, but unlike him he often didn't have any control when he turned and several years ago during an accident discovering his current weapon, cursed his brother giving him the permanent mental capability of a bear, with very little real memory of his previous life. [b]Pet Appearance:[/b] [hider=Lazarus][img] http://i.imgur.com/1dEoeMS.jpg [/img] (only feral without any sort of weapon and on all 4 fours, like a normal bear.) [/hider] [b]Strengths:[/b][list] [*][b]Immunity to poison[/b] - He is incapable of being killed or even harmed by poisons in anyway, usually going immediately out of his mouth, spitting it all out at once. He can only really notice being poisoned from the sour unpleasant taste he gets in his mouth. [*][b]Silent Movement[/b] - For being a giant, he is impressively quiet and can sneak up surprisingly well behind any other person even those with good hearing can completely miss him. It's almost if his movements make no sound. [/list] [b]Weaknesses:[/b][list] [*][b]Panic Attacks[/b] - Usually occurring after he wakes up from sleep or if he believes his brother is in any sort of danger or any sort of ailment. A simple sneeze from his brother could possibly trigger him. During this, he will become loud, frantic and completely unable to think straight. If someone wanted to fight him, this would be the more opportune time to do so. [*][b]Lack of genuine empathy[/b] - Something he used to have a lot of, his connection to humanity has been lost. Is unable to care about anyone's else's problems beside his own, or his brother. Only able to fake empathy and even then barely does so. [*][b]Quick to anger[/b] - He does not tolerate others tomfoolery for very long, and gets irritated at things very easily, growing extremely violent and psychotic within a instant. He actually can become more powerful angry making it a double edge sword, but his common sense and rational thought suffers. [*][b]Insatiable Lust[/b] - He can become smitten by things he finds attractive within a minute upon seeing them, usually but not exclusively females making him focus solely on that individual, which causes him to being very violent and impulsive often wrapping and suffocating something, trying to have sexual intercourse with it, often accidentally killing people. Has trouble snapping out of it when it happens, nearly impossible for the victim to get him to stop no matter how much they scream or fight back, mixing very poorly with his loss of sympathy. [/list] [b]Powers:[/b] ([b]Strong power: Beastly Brainwash[/b]) Usually starting with gazing into the orb or into his eyes, he is able to imagine any kind of animal, and start speaking with hypnotic suggestions as the individual will slowly have their brain forcefully corrupted into having animalistic instinct usually making them become subservient and obedient to his every word. But can occasionally just make them behave like wild feral creatures. With the orb being in his grasp, makes this power twice as effective and it becomes nearly impossible to outright fail. The effects it does to the brain are usually reversed slowly as they become completely normal again. However the more they get effected or the longer they are spoken too by him, the longer the effects can last. Occasionally outright brainwashing the weaker minded turning them permanently having the mentality of animals. ([b]Lesser power: Acidic Spit[/b]) Coming out of his wide open maw, he can spew a short big burst of clear acid that burns at an incredible high temperature, searing and burning through flesh if one is unlucky enough to be hit with it. Can shoot at a reasonably range, albeit not very accurately, often outright missing by a mile the farther away the target is, but has plenty of it to use before he needs to take time to let it build in him again, at least he can't hurt himself with it. The acid is also flammable. ([b]2nd Lesser power: Words Of Fire[/b]) This power involves a strange, seemingly made up language that he speaks in a deeper tone of voice, making one particular object within a 20 foot radius or person that can hear his voice his target. He starts to chant words, able to manipulate the temperature of the object, either making his acid burst into flames, or making object fiery hot to the touch, or make the individual to slowly have a higher and higher body temperature similar to getting some sort of really awful infection, making them burn up, so to speak. It is limited in how much energy it takes, longer or more times he uses it without taking a break, will tire him out.
