Re: the animal inside me || shapeshifter rp || discussion

Mine is a distressed ape, he has seen his brethren fall, and he wants to end that. Remember Harambe? Yeah, don't joke about that, or my inner animal will snap your neck.










Ok just kidding, I don't actually have that animal inside of me.

OR DO I?

I’m so sorry for proofing guys. My job (I delivery drive) has been calling me in night on top of me working everyday for my dad. I get home every night just completely exhausted, but I promise that when I get a free chance I’ll get a post up.

So I’m working on posts, but before I finish, who is open or wants to be tagged? Or both? If not, they’ll just both be open. Crystal swimming in a river or lake somewhere, and Ryuu just meditating

    hello everyone, i play eleanor who has taken the role of the epsilon, however i haven't posted or finished my form whatsoever,
    there is a reason behind that, which i'll explain in a moment. I believe that im going to have to drop out of the roleplay due to
    how inactive i have become over the past weeks, im not sure why as im a fairly active member usually, but for a past couple o
    f weeks now i have started to lose a lot of interest in not just roleplaying, but things i used to really enjoy all together. I feel a
    s if i haven't been all quite there with my mental health as of now, and i don't want that to hold back anything that will require
    a epsilon or hold back the chance for a more active member to be an epsilon. im really sorry, i generally did want to be apart o
    f this roleplay as it looked great, but i have a lot on in real life that takes priority, however i wish this rp luck and i hope it cont
    inues on for as long as possible !

Name: Bennett (Ben)
Age: 25
Gender: male
Rank: upsilon

Animal: Wild Boar
Power Ability to communicate with animals.
Larger mammals are much better conversationalists but there's always something to be learned even from mice and cockroaches, too. He often uses his power to gather information- the phrase "a little bird told me" rings especially true for him.

Health: Bennett's body is riddled with the scars of bite wounds, bullet holes, poorly healed broken bones, and the marks of whatever (or whomever) other weapons his captors chose to test on him. He walks with a pronounced limp.
His pig form bears the same scars but remains relatively unhindered. There's a good reason boar spears have spikes protruding from their sides. Without them the boar would run itself through and kill the hunter standing on the other side.
He suffers from ptsd and is especially terrified of dogs and canine shifters.

Personality: Generally lazy and opportunistic, Bennet is generally quick to adapt to new situations and to find new ways to make them work in his favor. This trait can make him appear rather unintelligent, but it's mostly a result of him using his observation skills for his own benefit. He rarely puts his intelligence to good use, being too used to self preservation to think of much of anything beyond that.
He come come off as a bit of an arrogant jackass when he's not careful. Though his time in the lab quickly squashed his belief that he was at all special compared to anyone else, it did little to keep him from wanting to be seen as important in some way. He thrives when he's surrounded by people (or animals) that care about him, but quickly becomes an insecure sarcastic mess when left to his own devices.
He is nervous around other shifters as a result of his past, both from being raised to hate them and from the countless attacks he endured. Though he recognizes that the group is made up of (mostly) genuinely kind people, it's difficult to overcome his initial fight or flight instinct. He rarely, if ever, relaxes around them.
He is often prone to paranoia in general, flinching at everything and often jumping to the worst possible conclusions when given vague or ambiguous information. The world hasn't been a safe place for him over the past several years, and he's seen enough of the other side of it to know just how close they all are to being recaptured.

His biggest strength is his ability to quickly gain information. Though his personality can be rather abrasive when interacting with humans, his demeanor becomes much more gentle when conversing with animals. He is quick to befriend them and maintains a fairly exptensive network of animals to help him keep track of everything going on around him.
At his best he is a genuinely kind person, even if his attempts at kindness can be rather clumsy. He wants to be a good person and to find his place in the world, but it's still a work in progress.

History: Bennett was initially raised with the intention of becoming a hunter. The scientists believed that indoctrinating the young boy against his fellow shifters would give them an invaluable tool in eliminating those who managed to escape the facilities. The early results were promising. Bennett was treated well as a child, and every attempt was made to endear him towards his captors while depicting the shifters as cruel, mindless beasts.
He always heard faint whisperings from the mice that scampered through the walls. Though they lacked the vocabulary to fully warn him, he often swore he heard the word run! echoing faintly around him. Even the roaches seemed uneasy when the humans were about.
At first he paid no head to them. They were just animals, after all, and he was far more advanced than any silly primitive beast. The scientists had told him so, and he wasn't one to question the people that had shown him nothing but kindness. Mice were almost as untrustworthy as a shifter, the only difference being that a mouse could never slit your throat.
He tracked down his first escaped shifter when he turned 14. It was easy to get the poor house cat to trust him, and they never stood a chance to escape when the boar lunged at her. The scientists were ecstatic at the sight of the capture, and their love and admiration for him only seemed to grow as he took part in more successful missions. The scientists felt like family to him and he would do anything to make them happy.
his last mission was a fairly simple one. Track down a small group of shifters, gain their trust, and report their coordinates. Chatting with a flock of crows and a conversation with one particularly helpful pet dog had given him all he needed to find the group. Befriending them was even simpler, but the task came almost too easily to him. They told him about the tortures they had endured in the lab, introduced them to a newborn and a young child that would soon display their parents' traits, and invited him to join their small family. When it came time for him to share his own story, he immediately confessed and told them to run.
The scientists quickly learned of his transgression. He confessed to his crime almost immediately when he was questioned about how the group managed to escape, falsely believing that his "family" would understand. Their warm demeanor suddenly turned stone cold, and he was immediately sent to live in a cell among the shifters he was taught to despise.
This time when the mice screamed to run, he realized he should have listened.

The scientists found a new use for him as a test subject. Specifically, how his body would regenerate when forced to switch between forms. The short answer: not particuarly well and often at a horrific cost to his already broken body. He lost count of how many times he was pushed to the brink of death. But scientists are a stickler for details, and they always needed more results to confirm their findings. Sometimes it was just a small cut made as a human and then studied as he shifted to a boar. Others were much more violent- a few gunshots, a spear jabbed into his back, countless broken bones, a pack of hunting dogs trained to track and kill shifters; whatever they fancied that day. He was forced to shift back into a human immediately, wrenching and twisting his already wounded body; and then he was given the bare minimum medical care and left until he was healthy enough to begin again. He swore he stayed alive out of sheer stubbornness. Boars are notoriously difficult to kill, after all- even if their host would rather just give in.
When they had nothing left to gain from those experiments, he was used instead as a way to test the strength of the other shifters. He found this role to be even worse, as he was constantly confronted with the same shifters that he had captured. They rarely held back.
He finally managed to escape one day by gaining intel from the mice, who had managed to befriend, and waiting until a single scientist had come to collect him and no others were nearby. He shifted into his boar form and attacked the human and made a run for the exit.

After escaping he took up a job as an animal tamer in a travelling circus. The job came naturally to him, of course. "Training" a ferocious hoard of lions and tigers and bears is much more simple when you share a common language, and especially when you're the first to treat them with any form of actual kindness. The spotlight was an added bonus. Bennett drank in all the extra attention and loved all of the performance and false bravado that came with it. The four legged family and new found admiration was a massive step up for a failed lab experiment turned crippled chew toy.
His time in the circus was happy but incredibly short lived. A bear warned him that a man was going around asking for information about boar sightings, and one of the tigers over heard him talking about the dangers of shifters and describing a recent kill to another worker. He left behind the circus and made his way towards a group of shifters he was once informed of but never got the chance to track down.

« human »
blake is a tall, skinny young man with brownish-blond hair and small goatee.
he's the worst rank and boy does he know it, often cowering from the higher ranks or even the lower ranks, though when he is in comfortable company he has a bleating laugh and loves to bombard people with goat puns.
his power is that he can temporarily grow larger and stronger, with a recharge inbetween- he rarely uses this unless he's really threatened.

« animal »
when shapeshifted, blake is an average sized, thin and gangly alpine ibex.
as an ibex, though he retains his intelligence and memory as normal, more animalistic instincts kick in. he becomes skittish and has been known to butt- a few others have the bruises to prove it.
