"The Lightning That Struck"
~Identity~
Given Name
Relampago, or just 'Rel' to most. In his native tongue, it means "The Lightning That Struck". His given name is one he uses very, very rarely, as Names have power amongst his race.
Pseudonyms
Often he uses the identity of 'Emeriel Madigan' when interacting with others, although he has been known to use others such as "Azoth".
Actual Age
Twenty five Earth-Based years. Although the naagloshii are supposedly 'immune' to the burden known as age, they grow at the same rate as whichever race they are 'wearing', only returning to their 'natural' identity when their current 'lifespan' runs out. Thus, Rel is considered barely a toddler by others of his kind, as this is his first 'life'.
Age of Appearance
Same as Actual.
Race
["Human" - Naagloshii]
In his tongue, they call themselves the "naagloshii", which translates into the word "skinwalker" when translated into Althanian Common. The "naagloshii" are regarded by several Indian tribes along the dimensional pathways, including those in such realms like Earth, as bearers of ill fortune and intent; 'witches' with the power to shift their shape into those of other sentient creatures, including animals and humanoids. In other cultures, they are viewed as monsters of legend and myth; one of the most common being the 'werewolf'. And even some others regard them as fallen angels, beings punished for their malevolence against God by binding them to the material world.
However, the truth isn't as far as one might think from the superstitions. The Naagloshii are a race of extra-dimensional entities that often assume the form of whatever native creature they first come across during their 'travels'. Making their 'home' wherever they see fit, they choose a set form for them to settle into; their 'permanent' skin of sorts. However, this does not stop them from altering their appearance and thus, their abilities, as they see fit; it is merely a 'base' for them to revert back to.
Stories tell these tribes of skinwalkers that they originally came from a planet that, upon dying, collapsed in on itself. Due to their structural nature, they did not 'die', but rather, decomposed, reverting to pure energy and, through the concurrent black hole that appeared, came to a place between worlds, between dimensions; a place they often refer to as "A'Lion"; roughly, translated into Common as "Heaven" to others. Very few, upon arriving in this 'existence', chose to stay; many, upon finding "Ways" to alternate realms, chose to flee and begin new lives as other creatures, leaving only when their identity's lifespans ran beyond the norm. Today, the naagloshii have formed societies on their new home plane, often acting as powers in the shadows for several planets and realms, manipulating the strings behind great actions and events for their own, unknown purpose. Be it curiousity, sadism, or some greater intervention, is still not known, even to those that know of their existence and their purpose.
Gender
Although, upon 'birth', Naagloshii are considered genderless, they are born however with a more masculine or feminine energy, which converts them into the gender of whichever race they choose to emulate. However, this is only their natural reaction; it is quite feasible for a male skinwalker to assume the appearance of a female, or vice versa, when the need arises. Rel himself is considered male for all intents and purposes.
Natural Height and Weight
Rel stands at six feet, one inch without armor or articles of clothing, and weighs one hundred and ninety physical pounds without either as well.
Natural Hair Color, Skin Color and Eye Color
His hair is a dark, soft raven black, whereas his skin is tinted on the darker side; more along the lines of of an American Indian skin. His eyes flicker between two colors based upon his mood, due to the walker's inexperience in Shifting; either a bright liquid azure hue when he is calm or a furious golden when upset.
General Base Appearance
Upon his coming to Althanas, Rel, after observation and learning, chose the appearance of an exotic human to emulate, with dark hair, bright eyes and tinted skin to pay tribute to one of the first storytellers of the skinwalkers' tales; the Navajo on Earth. Standing at six foot one, his darkened clothing gives him a more ominous demeanor than one would usually expect from his attitude, due mainly to his size. Although he is not overly muscular, Rel chose a form that would best suit his purposes, and thus he is athletically built, in comparison to a runner or swimmer. His raven hair is long and shaggy, often covering his eyes and vision, which is an oversight that sometimes can be a mishap in dangerous situations for him. This has led to the personality quirk of him running his gloved fingers through his hair during stressful situations, usually ending up in an even more disheveled mess atop his head. At this point, Rel has no piercings whatsover; the only remnants of any assorts of jewelry would be the rings upon his fingers and a set of dog tags he picked up during his very first ventures upon Althanas; each engraved with the title "Amoracchius".
Current Occupation(s)
As of now, Rel is a 'professional' hunter of ancient artifacts, seeking to collect the pieces of history and other rare treasures so to not only quell his own interest but to feed this information back to his people as well. The treasures he seeks are usually very valuable to the general public, dangerous, or even sentient, as those with magical power tell the greatest stories. However, the skinwalker is not unintelligent, and he knows that if he wants to reach most things he seeks he'll need more than his willpower to get through, and will if need be seek other employment or allies to join forces with to reach his goal.
General Personality Overview
Overall, Rel chooses to be a friendly being, interacting with others in a pleasant manner not only so he may grow close to others in order to study them but out of personal interest as well. Naturally likeable due to his quick wit and somewhat haphazard tongue, he can sometimes let his ignorance of his settings get the best of him and offend others easily. Negative emotions such as rage and revenge hold little influence over the man, as in his own dying society inner conflict only solves to bring about more destruction, defying logic in the face of emotion. However, this does not mean he is immune to their effects, as in choosing humans to emulate he is more susceptible to their overcoming of his logic than what would normally be considered acceptable. At some points he has trouble containing and controlling those emotions, due to his inexperience, and this can lead him into some difficult situations. It is at this point that he generally relies upon his charisma and likability to get him out of situations like those, but if not, he is not afraid to use force for a means to an end. As it is, he dislikes violence, especially that of the senseless kind, and rarely participates in such acts unless forced to.
As it is, Rel does have one major dislike, and when in the presence of such he cannot help but revert to a most antagonistic attitude. Although most of his race have disdain for the undead, he himself seems to utterly despise them, to the point of trying to kill them on sight. And the creatures he hates most of all are the ones that he calls 'phagelings'; otherwise known as vampires. Upon seeing one, he will most likely grow infuriated and either A) try and slay the being or B) Taunt it into attacking himself so that he may fight back in self defense, depending on his mood prior to the witnessing. In other words, the presence of a vampire has about a fifty-fifty chance of causing Rel to go into the 'Berserk' status, raising his offensive abilities but lowering his reasoning and defensive skills considerably.
~Characteristics~
I would like to note here that these are 'permanent' numbers; unless a major event happens, such as him losing an arm, his sanity, or changing identities, these numbers do not alter with leveling up. The number out of ten represents his total potential in comparison to the known human limits; for example, a 9 out of 10 in Physical abilities would indicate he would have the same potential as an Olympic Champion in that category.
Physical Prowess - Strength, Fortitude, Dexterity, Agility
[7/10] - Moderately High
In terms of physical abilities, as a human Rel outshines the average person by not an amazing amount, but enough to make a difference to most observers. That is to say, Rel's physical abilities, like running speed, reflexes, strength, jumping, and the like, are 1.25 greater than the average man, depending on the circumstances.
Mental Prowess - Intelligence, Wisdom
[6/10] - Above Average
As a human, his intelligence and thinking ability is only slightly higher than that of a normal man's, being able to perceive things in difficult situations that they would not, but not to a genius's degree of attention. If one were to sit down and hand him a written test, they would see the difference in between his thinking process and another's, but it is not obvious at first glance.
Influential Prowess - Charisma, Willpower
[10/10] - Spectacular
Rel has a naturally charismatic aura that just makes people want to sit and listen to him. With time, he could make the angriest and most brutal man in a tavern weep with tears in regret, or cause a peaceful village to erupt into a rampage of war, such is his natural influence. At this point, it is more an unconscious 'ability'; his charisma inflects his aura, so that it seems to physically change the mood of the environment around him when he speaks, but it is not something that he can control. Yet.
~Abilities and Skills~
Martial Abilities
Rel has above average experience and skill in wielding simple polearms (spears and halberds - exotic weapons like scythes are not included in this) and simple short to medium length hand held bladed weaponry (including short swords and long swords; specialty weaponry like bastard swords and greatweapons are not included). He has also average experience and skill in wielding simple projectile polearms (see above). For hand-to-hand combat, he has average experience and skill in Earth-based Tae Kwon Do, which focuses on being able to use the legs during armed combat.
All other weaponry and martial arts are considered to be below average in experience and skill.
Divine Abilities
Rel currently has no experience or skill in any divine abilities whatsoever.
Primal Abilities
Shapeshift - [At this time, Rel can only shapeshift into creatures of his own level.]The key, signature ability for any naagloshii is to be able to change shape at what looks to be their will, altering their bodies into huge wolves, high flying eagles, great underwater beasts, or even other people. However, this ability is far more difficult to achieve once a naagloshii has set a 'base skin' to wear, as Rel has, and they must go to what sometimes can be extraordinary measures to activate their inherent shapeshifting abilities.
Specifically, in order for Rel to change his shape briefly, he must first consume an organic piece of his subject's body, whether it be hair, or flesh, or some other appendage. The organism's flesh/hair/whichever can be either dead or alive; the raw energy the skinwalker must consume lies within the body nonetheless. Once this process is done, the 'information' is stored within the skinwalker, and depending on how much they have consumed of their subject, the change can last from either ten minutes to days on end. For example, consuming just a bite of the creature would render Rel able to change into that shape for a few brief minutes, while consuming the whole of the creature, hair and all, would allow him to assume the shape for up to probably a month, also depending on circumstances.
When Rel changes his shape, he is not just morphing his physical body, but actually changing his entire identity for a momentary amount of time to that of the subject. For example, say Rel consumed the flesh of an old wise man, and subsequently changed into said man. Not only would he inherit whatever physical abilities the man may have been using for a temporary time, he would also have access to whatever mental or metaphysical abilities that man may have.
However, there is a drawback that, if Rel is not careful, his shapeshifting ability could backfire upon him. If his subject is far, far stronger than him (I.E. Rel, a level 0 character, trying to change into a level 5 demon), then there is a very strong chance that the subject's own innate life and energy force could overpower his own, and thus ruin the transformation utterly. Not only that, but he also loses the information upon his subject forever, until he consumes another organic piece of them. Note that unless under special circumstances, once transformed into, that creature is gone from Rel's list of possible transformations until re-obtaining more organic material.
As said, there are some special circumstances, in which, after transforming into that shape so many times, or consuming a great amount of their organic material, that there is a chance that information will be lodged inside the skinwalker's memory permanently, allowing them to transform into that creature at any time. However, this is a rare occurrence indeed, as most naagloshii go through their entire life spans without achieving such a deed even once.
Rel does have one permanent transformation at this time, and it is of a medium-sized male winter wolf with a scar along it's face. Other than normal animal senses and slight resistance to cold and cold based attacks, there are no exceptionalities within the creature.
Arcane Abilities
Skinwalkers are deeply tied to the supernatural, and thus, have the potential to become dreaded omnimancers; wielders of each and every kind of magecraft in existence. However, it usually takes them one or two lifetimes to even master just one aspect, and this is with intense, rigorous training as well. As Rel is only twenty five at this time, he has had almost no time at all to be training in magecraft, so all he knows is either self taught or on pure instinct. The following is his list in the possible mage abilities and his skill in each.
Number Key:
0 - No experience or skill.
1 - Very little experience, mostly instinctual.
2 - Little experience, some training.
3 - Some experience and skill.

~Items and Equipment~
- One iron spear, about four feet in length, with an iron casting and head. The spear is unadorned and made for practicality, balanced despite it's heavier weight.
- One simple long sword, sheathed in ivory wood and slightly adorned with hairs from what looks to be a white wolf. The blade itself is steel crafted and has small engravings next to the crosspiece; a mark from it's maker.
- Green, worn forest cloak.
- Several days rations and water, flint and sharpening tools, along with normal pack.
At this point I choose not to input a formal history, as I would like to "start from scratch" with this character. I believe I explained enough of who he is and where he came from anyways. DISCLAIMER: All images belong to myself and me alone. No figures, fictional or nonfictional, were intentionally copied or referenced to in my profile.

~Items and Equipment~
- One iron spear, about four feet in length, with an iron casting and head. The spear is unadorned and made for practicality, balanced despite it's heavier weight.
- One simple long sword, sheathed in ivory wood and slightly adorned with hairs from what looks to be a white wolf. The blade itself is steel crafted and has small engravings next to the crosspiece; a mark from it's maker.
- Green, worn forest cloak.
- Several days rations and water, flint and sharpening tools, along with normal pack.
At this point I choose not to input a formal history, as I would like to "start from scratch" with this character. I believe I explained enough of who he is and where he came from anyways.
