Physical Forms

Lycan / Hellhound Properties

Myka's forms exist on a continuum from a rather plain looking anthro wolf to a red eyed, black furred monster. Rather than there being discrete forms within this, there is instead a mix of traits that can have different intensities that depend more on mood and moon phase when they go beyond what Myka can control. However, Myka is always some mix of the hellhound and lycan markings, and the wolf is always female.

When changing willingly to their wolf forms, Myka can choose some of how she looks. Most of the time, she chooses to look like a regular wolf with blue eyes. This form is easier to blend in with others even if she is a bit tall and well toned. She can, however, darken her colors to change her eyes to red as these are traits of her hellhound side. Her size can vary from tall but otherwise mundane to a monser roughly the size of a draft horse. The bigger she gets, the more hellhound will come out until her full size is always near black with red eye andunnaturally sharp teeth and claws. This form is what has earned her the nickname Fenrir after the creature in Norse mythology.

Like most lycans, she has incredible regenerative abilities and strength beyond what her size would suggest. She is vulnerable to silver and, to a lesser extent, strong holy wards. Silver can temporarily disable her regeneration, and holy magic can do extra damage to her. However, while she suffers from both vulnerabilities, the magnitudes are slightly less because of her mixed heritage.

Ferret Properties

In his ferret shape, Myka can easily pass for utterly mundane. While he avoids silver and holy magic, they are both far weaker against him in this shape. However, his strength, speed, and regeneration are all beyond normal, they too are also greatly diminished in his non-lycan forms. As a result, Myka tends to appear as a lycan most of the time, and he uses his ferret form as a means of hiding from prying eyes, hunters, and other hostile forces. He can pass off his enhanced reflexes and strength as being something anyone with a good gym membership could manage.

Spiritual Properties

Lifeforce

Myka has an unusually powerful lifeforce even for a lycan. The reasons for this are not entirely understood, but they are often attributed to his mixed lineage of two supernatural canines. This comes with some advantages such as being very resilient against vampiric attacks as well as hostile magic more out of having a large excess of energy that he can survive losing rather that having any kind of armor properties. It also him to use vampiric weapons that would quickly drain or kill other users with his casting pistol being prime artifact in this class.

Sins

The raw force of his spirit makes it harder to control, and Myka is prone to two sins in particular: wrath and gluttony. Both of these come from the hellhound side of the family, but wrath tends to dominate as it plays on feral aggressions on the lycan side. While Myka is generally well controlled, once he snaps, it is very hard to reign in his anger. While his pack and its structure was excellent at controlling this trait, STAR has unwound much of what they were able to teach him.

Gluttony is a bit more horrifying. It goes beyond a mere obsession with food. The nickname Fenrir comes from the prophecy that Fenrir would devour all things between the earth and sky. Myka is not quite that bad, but the wolf has no problems devouring victims from nose to tail. The pack has never come to harm from this, but it is unnerviung even for them, and it was this that the pack elders came to question his mother and this found out about her side of the family. Again, STAR has encouraged this and worked to break down Myka's inhibitions to make the wolf a better weapon.
