« Thread Started on Oct 10, 2007, 8:45pm »

Character Name: Nikias Lee
Species (Primary, Secondary):Doberman Pincher, Human
Gender: male
Age:5 (Appears 25 as human)
Height:5'10"
Weight:200
Eye Color:green
Basic Physical Description: As a Dog- He is tall at the shoulder with short, bristly black and dark tan hair. He has a long snout and high, proud shoulders that throw his chest out and his back tapers down to a lower set hindquarter with powerful legs that can send his off at a rapid past like that of a jackrabbit. As a matter of fact the miniature of his breed resemble jackrabbits when they run, legs underneath them to their chest. Him, not so much but you can see it if you watch him sometimes. He has sharp pointed ears that are well proportioned to his smallish, agile head and sharp, snarling teeth.
As a Human- He is very tall and of a lithe, wiry build and his upper half is broader and more muscular than his lower half but not so much that he looks like hes on steroids. He has green eyes that are sort of stark against his dullish black hair. His hair isn't that rich, velvet black you get out oft he bottle, no, more of a color consuming, midnight black. He has the face of a soldier that has seen war for he is a guard dog, or was until he became homosapien by night and canine by day. Do you have any idea how hard it is to get out of a kennel when you're an almost 6 foot tall human man?

History: He was born into a littler of five pups in a kennel that were left with their mother only just as long as necessary, his ears and tail clipped off very early so he wouldn't even miss them. As soon as he was weaned he and the ones though suitable from his litter were taken to be trained, most for guard dogs, one for a seeing eye dog (The guy had security issues) and one as a police dog. Nikki was one that was chosen for guard duty and his training started with potty training, progressing to sit and stay, and ending with got get it, attack, watch him and such things like that. He was trained down to a T. Sit, stay, watch them- he must sit on his rump and not move unless told, except of course if the one he was told to watch moves, in which case, bite him. Unless they told him to watch one of the little ones, in which case only herd them if they wander off. He was a good watch dog and sold quickly at the age of 3 to a man with a big house and a family who kept him at his side at all times unless he was away at work, in which case he had the run of the grounds so long as he could hear the whistle when he was needed and scent intruders. Now the man works at night, so it is safe for him to go out, and one day he went out of the fence, chasing a man who had tried to pee on his fence(He's territorial) , and he was contaminated by the virus during his chase that took him so far away from home. After that he just went home like a good dog and resumed his duties until he started to change. He is still trying to cope with being a human male with so many expectations, it was so much easier when he was a dog-he was expected to be aggressive.

Other INFO (personality stuff would be good): Aggressive, territorial, protective, loving, logical and very intelligent. Sort of like a marine yah know.

IC Sample (Of at least 200 words): The sun shone down hard, beating on the slick black pelt of the Doberman that paced back and forth along the fence line , his small clipped ears stuck up and his nose scenting the air over and over again. He was waiting, and this time, victory would be his. Oh there it is, he could smell it, that scent of bubblgegum and ink and oil. Five, four, three, two, one- from around the corner came the mailman, stereotypical dog enemy, I know. Yet, he just can't help it, that bugger who ran him over with the truck when he first came to guard this house, come one, that's a legitimate excuse right? Stop the truck, get out, start walking...and.... NOW! He lept forward, over the gate and landing hard on the sidewalk, not even stopping to regain his perfect balance as he hit the ground running, his powerful legs pushing him forward and a feral hellish growl issuing from his throat. The mailman, a short, burly man with a constant tobacco bulge in his lip- swore and ambled as quickly as he could to his truck and slammed the door just as Nikki slammed into it. Ok, maybe he's not always the most brilliant dog, well, not when he gets mad. Engine starting and the van pulling away, Nikki started cussing to himself mentally, once again, defeated.

Welcome! Normally I'd expect a sample post that somehow included your character in "human" form, but I like the writing style. I'll move this to Character Profiles, and you can go ahead and start posting!
