“Gold! GOLD! GOLD!”
Name: Ivan Peters
Age:Over many millennia old
Race:Shapeshifter, though usually takes the form of a human or gorilla(the gorilla is his main form so he doesn't have to wear any pants. xD)
Appearance:Human form is a black bearded dude with gold eyes and a large bald spot reaching to most of his head. He looks pretty youthful for being there since the Big Bang, looking like he’s in his mid-forties at least, while also usually having the energy of a toddler on crack. He usually wears bright colors, long sleeved shirts, and pants(even though he doesn't like to).
He has a long, crooked nose, as well as two missing front teeth, with gold fillings to replace them. He also has short black hair, has a fat physique(but isn't overweight), and tanned skin from being outside a lot.
His many animal forms, however, all look like regular animals, except for one thing: They all have gold eyes.
Personality:Ivan is a cold, ruthless assassin, who will stop at nothing to-
Lol, just kidding. xD
In reality, Ivan is energetic, dramatic, and enthusiastic. He will do anything for money, including tricking innocent people out of it, but would never hurt them for no reason out of it, and doesn’t ever include innocent civilians in his shady deals.
His favorite type of money is gold, and he would swim in it if he could. Unfortunately, he’s not Scrooge McDuck, so he settles for collecting as much as he can instead. He’ll settle for other types of money, though! Really, he just loves money. xD
He’s also strangely cheerful and friendly? Like, he’ll greet anyone, even his enemies, with a huge grin, but with his enemies, there’s usually some malice behind it. Despite being constantly underestimated due to his personality, he’s actually able to plan ahead when he wants to, and can actually be a clever trickster when he feels like it, as well as spiteful when something really pisses him off.
Background:Ivan just kind of wandered around after the dawn of time and the formation of Earth, becoming many influential figures in the process. His most famous, and the one he had the most fun with, is Blackbeard, so much so that he still has his centuries-old pirate gear in his bedroom, and still wishes to traverse the seven seas again. Either way, he’s always been involved with humans, has always tried to get the most money he could, and has always tried to have fun, even when he’s in danger.
As for how he got involved, he’s a business magnate in The City, going by the name Ivan Peters, and upon hearing about the Outcasts harming Innocents for no good reason(in his eyes, anyway), he got his long suffering assistant, Ms. Smith, to handle his massive wealth and soon got in contact with The Detective.
Skills and Abilities:He has enhanced physical abilities(including enhanced strength), is fast and athletic even for his build, puts up a hell of a fight when caught, and, of course, his shapeshifting ability.
Weakness:He can only shapeshift into animals, not other people, and his other weakness is his heels, which can down Ivan almost immediately if they get stabbed/shot. He'll need to recover for a day or two if he gets shot there. He's invulnerable everywhere else, though.
Also, the shapeshifting takes around four seconds to complete, meaning someone could easily take advantage of that time to tackle Ivan. It also hurts a bit, but not by a lot, but the hurt does build up over time, meaning Ivan has to be careful to not use it too much. Larger/flying animals are tricky as well, seeing as Ivan has to make more mass/throw up a whole lot of bones and make some new ones in order to shapeshift into them, meaning that it takes longer(like 5-6 seconds).
When in a smaller form, he acts and thinks more with base animal instincts, and kind of also picks up the stereotypical traits of that animal. Like, for mouse, Ivan would suddenly be timid and jumpy when a mouse, hungry and opportunistic when a seagull, quiet and calm when a raven, etc., etc.
Ivan is also rather cocky, meaning he can underestimate people and see them as "punks not worth the effort". He can also be rash when angry, too, and considering that he's short tempered, that's probably not a good sign.
Equipment:He has a pair of special knuckle dusters that allow him to use his enhanced strength to get extra good hits on his enemies. Oh, and also, his phone.
Quips:”There’s gold in them hills!”
“Argh, lassie, I was indeed Blackbeard a long time ago! Now, what’s your question?”
“Oh, I see! When Green Goblin’s civilian alter ego has a lot of money, he’s “a cool threat to Spiderman”, but when I have a lot of money, I’m “a part of the one percent”! Double standard, much!?”
(He also steals and robs from the dead in order to get gold, so take that as you will. Hehe-)
