Who: Siffleur / Fleur
Pronouns: he/him
What: Werecougar - a semi-feral creature who is occasionally manshaped and occasionally cat shaped, all depending on what offers the most camouflage.
Where: Last spotted returning to the Yoho National Park in the hopes of catching his mother's scent.

Personality: Siffleur is like most big cats: a huge asshole who enjoys killing for fun, fucking for occasional pleasure, and living a solitary life. He's tacturn and prefers to listen over speaking. When he is in a chatty mood, he moves effortlessly between sincere and sadistic playfulness. Quick to anger, he can occasionally bide his time, but he's mostly likely to lose control and lash out. He grew a taste for all flesh when he was young, including human and cougar, and has a tendency to cannibalize for the sheer thrill of it. He has sharp eyes and sharp hearing, but his scent is his most powerful and equally overpowering sense, and how he primarily interacts with the world. On the surface, he's self assured and off-putting. Anyone who manages to get underneath will find a broken creature with open emotional wounds, and a willingness to kill to disguise those weaknesses. Siffleur is capable of affection and tenderness, but it's overwhelming reserved for his occasional lover.

Appearance: At 6'6", Siffleur towers over most when drawn to his full height. He's got a wirely muscular form, and numerous scars along his body from fights with other animals, and a cluster of buckshot scars on his back. His hair and fur varies in colour between various shade of brown to a light gingery colour. In human form, his hair is unusually soft, closer to fur than human hair. All his teeth are intact, including full wisdom teeth, and his eyes are a yellow/orange. When shifting between shapes, his body makes terrible crunching and wet sounds as body parts change back and forth. There is some pain from shifting, but he's quite used to it by now.

History: Siffleur was born in the Yoho, named for the river beside which his mother gave birth. He spent his early years by his mother's side - his father was never named and never known, something he has never put much thought towards. His mother was two women - the first who loved him and taught him how to survive, who called him her little Fleur and fed him well; the second who raged and screamed and cried, who was a madwoman and who neglected and abandoned him from time to time, or told him the terrible truths of life and taught him to find please in killing. The first time she left him for longer than a few weeks, he was nine and she vanished for six months, leaving him to fend for himself. This pattern would repeat the rest of his life. When not with his mother, he would spend his time mostly as a cougar, hunting on either side of the border as he moved up and down upper North America. As he grew older, she vanished for longer and longer periods, and he experimented with living as a man now and then. He began to take lovers occasionally but these relationships rarely lasted the year. Two children were born out of this, neither who inherited his condition and so he abandoned them. It's been five years since he last saw his mother and he's begun worrying that she's truly dead this time.

Abilities: Siffleur can change into a large cougar at will, transforming from human to cougar in about 1 minute. The transformation is painful and brutal, and will tear apart any matter caught against his flesh when changing. He has all the strength and absolutely a cougar has when transformed. He's capable of a partial transformation but it's extremely painful to maintain and he can't hold it for longer then half an hour before his body forces him to commit in one direction. As a human, he's stronger than most men his sight and physical build are, and has a higher pain tolerance. He can also digest raw meat without growing ill. The cycle of the moon has no effect on his transformation, nor does he react to wolfsbane or silver. He has some regeneration abilities - notably wounds heal more quickly (within hours instead of days), but if he's gutted/beheaded, he'll die.

Permissions

OOC

Backtag: Always welcome
Threadjacking: In memes, always. In serious threads, check first with myself and the other participant.
Tag Revision: Yes, within reason - adjustments are fine but we commit to our character's bad decisions.
Reminders: Yes, and I appreciate them.

IC

Death/Injury/etc: Yes - though it won't be easy and he will fight back, Siffleur is mortal and can be maimed or killed.
Mindreading: Mind readers will have no trouble accessing his mind. It will be like attempting to read an animal's mind, more of a mix of impressions and instincts and scents, with the occasional coherent sentence. UPDATE: As of Feb 2023, occasionally stray thoughts will be heard that are clearly not from Siffleur, but from a woman's voice instead. They will not be very coherent or stable.
Pinging him being not-human: The eyes give him away pretty quickly, being an orange/yellow and piercing. If not the eyes, then his body language is clearly off - standing too close or too far away, aggressive eye contact, body too still with no fidgeting. He also prefers to squat rather than sit.
Physical Contact: Touch him without permission and he's likely to take off your hand, and then tear out your throat. He's not interested in touching or being touched, unless you manage to be one of the few people who manages to earn his trust, at which point he'll be like most big cats and occasionally seek out affection or accept it.
Flirting: Yes. Currently in a good place in his life, he's opened himself up to flirting, and tends to be direct about his own intentions.
Sex: Yes. Though he's not looking for anything monogamous, he's very interested in casual hook-ups.
Horror/Gore/Etc: Always welcome and almost a prerequisite for being in contact with Siffleur for any length of time.

Opt-In: Cannibalism

He enjoys killing for sport and eating people, often while they're still alive. Go here to opt-in to being a potential meal if you two interact.
