"Eh now, thassa right cute one, right there," Lunchlady Ginger commented at the Bin's newest transformation. "Cute little ears an a tail, oh my!"
The Bin preened a bit, tail lashing.
"Why I bet ya were a cat or sommat in a past life, that's what I bet."
The Bin was suitably thoughtful on this. It could have been cat in a past life. It even liked eating many of the things cats did! Mmmm...bird (students) and fish (students) and of course...
"Oh now, Ginger knows that look right well, she does," the Lunchlady chuckled. Reaching into her hair, she dug around for a few moments and the produced a rather zombie-like rat. "Found thissun in a trap, and liked his look. Think he'd go down a right treat for one such as yerself."
Nicknames: Deac, D-Bag, Dickon... Various Expletives...
Demon Name: Tsuchitenma (One day I'll rediscover the meaning... I forgot. orz) *So far, Riyo is the only one who knows his demon name and can summon him. GMs are an exception to the above. If the need arises, my permission is given.
Gender: Male
Age: Appears Mid 20s
Faction/Race: Demon (Bakeneko)
Personality: Deacon can be a kind, well-behaved and chivalrous gentleman. If he wants something from you. Or, simply if he is within view or earshot of a member of faculty. Underneath the facade, Deacon is a lying, cheating, completely inconsiderate jerk. He doesn't give a rat's tail about your troubles, unless helping you gets him ahead somehow. Every man for himself; Deacon's words to live scare by.
There is an exception to his rudeness, thank Jack. He does try to appear pleasing to the ladies. He’s a flirt all the way, sometimes in an all too forward manner. As far as a committed relationship goes… Don't get your hopes up. There are a lot of girls in Amityville, after all. A guy's gotta have options.
As far as the male students go, Deacon is careful to see who might be capable of tearing him a new one before he wags his tongue too ignorantly arrogantly. If the guy has some impressive talents - or better, any quality that reminds Deacon of himself - they might just have a new ally. For how long? That's always up in the air, most likely destined to change at the worst possible moment. Watch your back, or he might just be the one plunging a knife into it.
The only sincerely respected people in the Academy are the professors. Deacon might be full of himself, but he’s no fool. These are the creatures that will truly help him in his goal to rise to the top. Not to say he probably won't have his share of detention, because it's so very irresistible to add just a pinch of a reactive chemical into that potion assignment of yours. While the staff might be free from harmful torment, the students are unfortunately free game.
Likes: Women! Being better than you at absolutely anything. Sweet food, especially dairy and most baked goods. Spending time alone in his dorm, typically plotting against a fellow student. Keeping well groomed; Deacon wants to look the best as well. Harassing others in various ways. Covering his tracks for the more brutal pranks, or framing someone else who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Deacon also enjoys long, moonlit walks through the pumpkin patch and the calming melodies of classical music.
Dislikes: You, most likely. People who don't know when to shut up. "Rigged" competitions that he can't win. Cute, fluffy things; unless accompanied by a terrible attitude and sharp teeth. People too much like him, for fear of being outdone. Or worse, fall victim to another person's bad deeds. He also hates spicy food with a vengeance. Any student who likes the stuff would do well to sit somewhat close to him during meal time, they're likely to get his share.
Why did they enroll at the academy? His father suggested he enroll in order to get him out of the house discover his FEAR abilities and be properly educated in the ways of scaring. Deacon would never protest to the chance of becoming stronger, so there was no argument. Besides, if he did well, he could finally set foot into the human world. They would surely be all sorts of fun to torment.
Fear: Deacon relies most on natural abilities when it comes to fighting, but he has been toying with magic. With any use of magic, Deacon expends energy. The more complicated or forceful he tries to be - or with frequency of use - the faster he exhausts himself. Too much use and the attempts will become completely fruitless; no half-able here, he just can or can't. He still weakens even if he tries with no result, with further attempts bringing higher risk of him passing out. [OOC Note: Elemental magic for his FEAR is my way of keeping one of the power-related aspects of Deacon similar to how he was originally created.]
Natural Ability: While his natural form is humanoid, where transformation is permitted, Deacon may shift into a domestic cat. He takes the form of a ginger-colored tabby, normal in terms of appearance to the human eye. Usually he will walk or run on four legs; four is much faster than two, after all. He can, however, stand or move about only using his hind legs. This is a typical trait of his species. The ability of transformation is most useful if Deacon wishes to move though small spaces that his humanoid form would not be able to fit into. He could also use it to spy or generally remain out of sight in such a small form. Deacon is pretty bummed that he can't use this ability to sneak into the FEAR-Leaders' locker room...
FEAR Abilitiy: Earth magic is a personal favorite of Deacon's. He hopes to become stronger with it, and one day master the element. At current, he can cause small tremors by concentrating on the magic while walking, running or stomping his feet. At the least it can startle someone with a sound and rumble similar to a sonic boom, at worst it might knock small or generally light objects off of shelves, tables or walls. It's really meant to distract, though if you happen to be close to something that ends up falling it's an added bonus for him.

Dorm Setup
As you might expect from any demon full of themselves, Deacon wanted to have a beautifully furnished dorm. Unfortunately, when dad wouldn't foot the bill for all of the expensive s**t his son had picked out, this was what he was left with.
Still. He's got it better than the rest of you low-life creatures in the other dorm houses, right?
Who cares, anyway? It's not like he ever lets anybody in here.

Frenemies
Cady:Played by Ravvlet She can unhinge her jaw. It would be kinda hot if it wasn't for the terrifying, razor sharp teeth she's got going on.
Emily:Played by lizbot Cute little ghoul, nervous as she is.
Nukpana:Played by x_Nata_x The first and most likely only 'bro' that Deacon will acknowledge. He likes Nuk, and Nuk seems to like him. Deacon might even be more hard pressed to stab him in the back in the future. Maybe. No, really, you're cool dude.
Judith:Played by Sukkubus Oh, how he wishes she would just insert one of those massive feet into her equally massive mouth already. Thankfully, Deacon hasn't her since the first Battle of the Bands ordeal. He sincerely hopes that she's still buried under the remains of instruments somewhere...
Israfel:Played by iStoleYurVamps The siren made him a nice little set of mittens and a coat when everyone was stuck in Christmastown. Too bad they were burnt up in the final explosion. As of yet, this is probably the only thing that makes this student memorable to Deacon.
Junko:Played by Eight She's cute and so wonderfully clueless. Deacon would follow her around in his natural form forever, had he the power. Or desire, considering he got his good fill of it the first time she saw him in it. Also, she let him snuggle her boobs. They are soft. He hopes to get the chance to snuggle up to them again, sometime.
Riyo:Played by The Riyo Such a lovely love/hate relationship.
Yuki:Played by Hitsuzen Totally Deacon's minion, whether he likes it or not.
Titus:Played by Inu-Mitsu

Emblems Collected

Minipets
Caleb Caleb is Deacon's main pet, much to the poor creature's misfortune. Timid and easy to terrify, the Hazcat is a living example of a scaredy cat. The poor thing is bullied more often than not, since Deacon finds him to be weak and frail. Supposedly, kicking him around is supposed to help him grow a backbone and fight back. However, it only makes the feline minipet all the more pathetic.
Chandra This Ulppa is the only pet that Deacon seems to not despise in some way. Often, the little guy nestles on his owner's shoulder, or next to his computer where it is warm. Chandra is also the only pet that Deacon gives positive attention to. Although, that's probably because he doesn't seem inclined to run away or bite.
Sunny It's as though karma came to him in feathered form. Sunny, who at first carried the form of a mere white peking duck, is a terror. Even as a simple duck, he found joy in nipping at the tabby's bare feet. Needless to say, now there aren't just welts to worry about, but blood. Much to Deacon's dismay, the drake "loves" him and will simply not go away.

Mounts
Silas A lovable feline that seems to think he's the size of a lap cat. No, really. He's heavy and will lie right on top of you. Luckily, usually for scratches and pets instead of the desire to... You know, eat you.
