☆ PERSONALITY 》 ⇨ Aryn enjoys disobeying authority, butting into other people's business when it suits him, and generally being a sarcastic a*****e about things. His rebellious nature and reckless acts often shade good intentions, however, and he is extremely loyal and protective of those he grows to like, regardless of whether their feelings are returned. He does what he feels like doing most of the time, but does understand on some level that there is a time and place to follow rules and that sometimes he must listen to others he disagrees with to meet a more important goal. Despite his trouble-making ways, he's actually pretty smart and greatly respects those who can hold an argument or otherwise stand up for themselves, even if it's against him. Overall, he's extremely sarcastic, playful, honest, stubborn, and confident. He is very proud of his status as a griffin.
☆ ABILITIES 》 ⇨ He can shift from a griffin to human form and back. When in griffin form, he can use telepathy as a form of communication, but only to those within eyesight. (He cannot read minds or otherwise retrieve another person's thoughts. His telepathy ability is only available in his griffin form.) In his griffin form, he has the same senses as the animals his form is made up of. Likewise, in his human form he has average human senses.
⇨ He has impressive regenerative abilities and an unnaturally high endurance for physical labor and pain in both forms.
⇨ By plucking one of his own feathers, he can heal another of sickness, blindness, or minor injury. However, they take a long time to grow back and he cannot fly if too many are plucked, so he does not give these out lightly.
⇨ He can attach small spells to items that can do small things like increase confidence, courage, and good health to the wearer.
☆ WEAPONS 》 ⇨ He's proficient in the use of handguns and pole-arms, with minor skill in swordplay.
☆ TALENTS/HOBBIES 》 ⇨ He likes to exercise and explore new places.
⇨ On his downtime, he makes charms, trinkets, and jewelry to keep himself busy. He does free crafting and repair requests for people he likes, but otherwise sells his skill for extra spending money.
⇨ He knows a few languages well enough to understand, and studies them as a hobby every now and then.
☆ HISTORY 》 ⇨ Aryn's tribe was initially based in Southern Europe, but was forced to migrate when Aryn was young due to being caught in the crossfires of a war. His family escaped to a distantly related tribe settled in the mountains of North America. The tribe was peaceful, but Aryn yearned for adventure and to explore the world, so set out on his own at a young age. He soon learned just how inexperienced he was and applied to the school to broaden his horizons before attempting to set out on his own again.
