Wolf Form

Jeremy’s wolf form

Build: Stocky with muscular arms and legs he can move as a quadraped if absolutely need be, but doing so is very awkward and inefficient and is more a hindrance than a help, so he usually sticks to biped when in wolf form.

Weight: 390
Hair: Quite short in the places it appears, dark gray with hints of a stony beige color
Eyes: Dark brown, almost black
Defining Marks: No tail

Personality: Jeremy is in general, a happy upbeat person who does his best to look on the bright side of things and shrug the rest off. From his general demeanor you would think he’s very silly, a class clown type and doesn’t take anything seriously, but when it comes to his duties as pack historian, the exact opposite is true. Jeremy realizes the importance, at least in his eyes, of keeping records for the pack and keeps to the task with the utmost of seriousness, perhaps in part due to some sense of ‘doing right’ by the one he inherited the duties from. Due to him spending so much time on his computer, Jeremy is an avid gamer, and between that his programming and record keeping probably spends way too much time on it. It’s often hard to keep Jeremy’s attention, as his mind constantly moves from thing to thing, and usually his body along with it. The state increases around the time of the full moon making him even more ‘hyper’ seeming than usual, as well as what could be considered irritable for him, which is probably standard for most other pack members. Jeremy is very much not a fighter, one of the reasons he’s very happy to serve a more intellectual use to the pack. He’ll defend himself if necessary but that’s about where his intentions with such things begin and end.

Weaknesses: The standard werewolf weakness for silver. Also, Jeremy is not the best at interacting with others, perhaps because his default personality could be considered annoying by many, he tends to prefer being alone most times, though he does interact with his packmates quiet often, but as keeping with his personality, such interactions are usually short and very random. This also results in him saying things that might be less than tactful as doesn’t ever really take the time to judge what he’s saying before it comes out of his mouth.

Abilities: Standard werewolf abilities of increased strength, speed, agility, healing, etc. Despite his usual behavior, Jeremy is actually a very intelligent individual, though it only comes out in certain ways, and he has a near photographic memory. He also has excellent hand/eye coordination, which comes in quite handy for his gaming.

Weapons: A glock 17 and combat knife, both used only when absolutely necessary, and a butterfly knife which is always kept on his person and that he has a tendency to take out and play with quite often, usually just flipping it open and closed repeatedly.

Home(s): The Hyperion with the rest of Cole’s pack

History:
Jeremy was born in a small farming village in 1806. For the entirety of his human existence he lead a normal, unextraordinary life, helping his family work their land and doing his part to make sure both they and their village survived. More often than not he was in trouble for ‘goofing off’ or not being as diligent with his chores as he should, though somehow they always did seem to get done on time and properly. It was by no means a luxurious life but with his family and few friends it was more than sufficient for him. Unfortunately his quiet life was not to last. Unbeknownst to him or any of the other inhabitants, the land surrounding their village was the current focus of a territory war between a small group of vampires and a particularly vicious pack of rogue werewolves. One night the battle spilled into the village, neither werewolf nor vampire really even taking notice of the humans stuck in the middle. In the end the village was destroyed, almost completely razed to the ground and nearly all of its inhabitants were killed. Jeremy was among the large number left for dead, and by some twist of fate he ended up alive, having survived his injuries but becoming a werewolf himself.

For a few years Jeremy wandered alone not entirely knowing or understanding what he was now, at times nearly feral and being driven by the moon and his impulses, staying away from ‘normal’ people as much as possible, as well any vampires or other werewolves he came across. His wanderings would sometimes take him into the territory of an established pack and he his best to lay low, doing what was needed to move as quickly as possible through the territory. Jeremy’s luck with this tactic did eventually wear out and he ran into a pack’s hunting party while in their territory. By the grace of one in particular, instead of killing Jeremy for the offense the party took pity on the young werewolf and took him into their pack.

The stability and safety found in the pack was something of a pleasant shock for Jeremy and he naturally became somewhat attached to his ‘rescuer’, the werewolf named Damien that had encouraged the others to take him in, and quickly became something of a shadow for elder male. In addition to being a fighter, Damien was a record keeper of sorts for the pack, responsible for keeping documentation of events and histories, no small task for a group of beings who are essentially immortal. Very quickly Damien became like a second father of sorts to Jeremy and he did somewhat settle into the pack, finally regaining a feeling something that was akin to what he had known as normal before. The young werewolf, since almost constantly in Damien’s company, soon became an unofficial assistant of sorts to the historian. It took pretty much an entire lifetime for Jeremy to learn most of the intricacies of Damien’s work, and he always assumed he would have as much time as needed to complete his knowledge where it might be lacking. However, this was not to be. Damien was killed while helping defend the pack’s territory and Jeremy, through grieving, took on his duties, unwilling to accept even the possibility of anyone else doing so. A certain amount of his fervor for his ‘job’ amongst the pack is an attempt to live up to the standards Damien set before him, and to do his best to be a proper replacement.

As technology emerged and advanced Jeremy kept an eye on it’s progression, realizing the applications for not only his duties in the pack but for his own entertainment as well and has been on top of nearly every technological advancement as it has come about. As a result, he is now quite the cyber geek and is quite well versed games, computers, and components, as well as nearly every programming language in existence, a talent that he uses quite often to earn money for himself and the pack.

Anybody can be sad
Can't see the good when it goes bad
Then you end up blue and through
But that's all right
Got my share of people who love me
Got my share of problems to bug me
Every now and then it's hard
But that's all right.
