User Name: [Priest Kel]

Character name: Michael Moonfrost

Mutant Name: Grizzly

Abilities/powers: Can shift into a beastly semi-human semi-bear (think werewolf, only a werebear). While in this form, his strength is proportionate to that of an immense bear and his healing abilities are increased. While in human form, he has an increased amount of natural strength due to his mutation. He has full control of this shape shifting mutation. Also, his sense of smell is heightened to that of a bear's.

However, there is a downside to his shapeshifting. The amount of energy required of his body to shift between his bear form and his human form can leave him quite drained and starving upon returning to his human form. He has to replenish his body's energy supply with food shortly afterwards. This also leads to him having a higher metabolism in his human form and so he can be often be caught in the kitchen, eating.

Sex: Male

Age: 16

General appearance: Michael is Native American by heritage so his skin tone and hair color reflect that. He has a permanent tan and golden brown hair that he keeps cut short. His eyes are green however, from his mother. He has an extremely muscular build, is 6'8 and is a hairy individual. He typically wears plain t-shirts and khakis on any given day, not wanting to bring a whole lot of attention to himself.

Additional Appearance:

Personality: Michael is generally a very friendly and cheerful person to be around. He loves to talk and typically finds SOMETHING to talk about with just about everyone. He has a very firm belief in God and a very deep rooted belief in honor. His honor is his most prized possession. Most people do not understand how he thinks and acts in some situations because of this fact. If one were to ask for an explantion of his code he would respond: "That's like trying to explain why a mountain is there. You can't explain, it just is." He is fiercely loyal and is not afraid to fight for what he believes in. He also loves to eat and train (the training holds off the fattening up).

Special Skills: A very skilled fighter and natural athlete (due to his mutation). He also has some of the same heightened senses of his animal counterpart (such as smell).

Place of birth: Cherokee, North Carolina

Weapon(s) of choice: Hand to hand as well as his natural weapons while in his beast form.

Medical information: While he is human, due to his abnormal genetics and his mutation he would be susceptible to any bear exclusive illnesses. Also he is, somehow, highly allergic to silver. Skin contact with the metal can leave highly painful blisters. It is unknown as of yet what would happen if silver were to pierce his skin, and he doesn't want to find out.

Brief History: Michael was born on the Indian Reservation in Cherokee, North Carolina to a simple family. He grew up as a typical southerner would: his family was involved in church, very close, and happy enjoying the simple things in life. His father was a security guard at the local casino and his mother stayed home with Michael. His childhood was happy, and all was well until he reached the age of twelve. At that time the village elders came to his parents and told them that the tribal guardian, that of the bear, had chosen their son to be his physical representative. Being devout Christians, they dismissed this to be superstitious nonsense and went back to their lives. But as time went on, with the village elders watching in the distance, Michael started to change. His strength increased as did his growth rate as well as the amount of body hair that he had. Soon, he experienced his first change which baffled and scared him. He ran into the mountains surrounding the reservation and lived on his own for a few weeks. Soon after the village elders found him and explained what was happening, he came home. They told him that the bear spirit had chosen him to do good within the world, and he owed it a debt of gratitude for his newfound strength. He spent the next four years training to hone his new shapeshifting skills and fighting abilities. He even wanted to become a police officer, but when his shapeshifting abilities were noticed by the increasing amount of tourists, he had to leave. His parents found the Xavier School and told him it would be the best place for him to go. So with a small amount of his own belongings, he left his home and ventured north and is now here at the school for gifted youngsters.

Relatives:A mother, father, and the whole Cherokee tribe. He is very loyal and protective of them all.

How long your character has been in the mansion: New arrival

Relation chart (1: bad; 10: good)

Korvka Shostakovich - 9; Has practically fallen in love with the girl and considers her boldness and her firey temper as something to be admired.

Vladimir Shostakovich - 6; Korvka's brother seems friendly enough, but things will change when he realizes that Michael wants to be with his sister. He is confident that a severe pummeling will be had in the future

Daniela Morgan- 7; Sparred against her in the Danger Room his second day at the mansion and she earned a great deal of respect. Had she more energy, she would have won the match but it was called as a draw. He wishes she had a bit more self esteem though.

Elizabeth Charms - 6; Met her in the kitchen and thinks she is friendly enough, but really doesn't know her all that well, even though she flirted with him at the pool.

Shana Grace Tilar - 6; Was on his team during pool volleyball and respects her abilities. She is a good teammate

Josephine Balliet - 6; Has been speaking to her somewhat and she seems nice enough and he hopes to help her with some combat skills.

Valerie K. Sprouse - 5; Met Valerie once or twice and she seems nice enough but doesn't really know her that well.

Shade - 5; Shade doesn't really seem to be the best person for Michael to hang out with. He isn't sure what to think, but he has a suspicion or two that Shade was the one to get him drunk at the strip club

Summer Blair- 5; Hasn't had any interation as of yet

Light Arely Tilar- 5; Accidentally put too much force behind his last spike of the volleyball game. He's sorry that he hurt her arm.

Zane E. Lewis- 5; Zane asked Michael if he worked out and that was about it.

Alexis Meldoon - 7; Anyone that buys Michael food, especially wings, automatically boosts their friend appeal

Teena MacTormin - 5; Barely knows Teena, but she seems extremely hyper and friendly.

Adrianne Wagner - 5; Hasn't had any interaction as of yet

Mihir Proudclaw - 8; Mihir is chief-to-be of Michael's tribe and automatically has his respect and support but they are also very good friends and have been for quite some time. Michael doesn't understand why Mihir feels the was he does about his being tribal guardian though.

Kyle Bedlington - 5; Hasn't had any interaction as of yet

Ethan Beckett - 5; Hasn't had any interaction as of yet

X-Men Characters * X-Men Dormitories * Start X-Men

2010-04-02 [Roma]: This looks good. Just put his powers all in one place - it's scattered a bit. Add the heightened sense of smell in the powers (you can keep it in special skills too, just copy and paste).

Then, I'll add you, make your dormitory, and you'll be free to RP!

Oh...it was mentioned that perhaps the bear in X-Men Grounds Woods could be your character. Talk about fun, eh? ^_^

2010-04-02 [Priest Kel]: But he isn't actually a bear, more like a half man half bear thing. Imagine the pure blood Lycans from Rise of the Lycans, only a bear instead of a wolf

2010-04-02 [Roma]: Well bummer

2010-04-02 [Priest Kel]: He could still be mistaken for a bear, just a really big, mean, and nasty one

2010-04-02 [Roma]: Well then it could be perfect!

2010-04-03 [Priest Kel]: Yeah, but I read a little bit of those posts...I think they would be a bit more afraid of him

2010-04-03 [Roma]: Well it was just an idea. Anyway, I'll get you squared away here with a dormitory and then post your character and show you how to enter.

2010-04-06 [Priest Kel]: Sweet

2010-04-10 [Priest Kel]: I have a question, is there really any way to accurately measure each characters strength? I was just thinking that if he had Vlad as a sparring partner it may become relevant

2010-04-10 [Roma]: I'd imagine Michael is as strong as a bear, which is pretty fuggin strong. But Vlad's still stronger. His powers are only durability and super strength, so making Michael stronger would be just too much power to him.

2010-04-10 [Priest Kel]: Understood, but I forgot to mention that in the were-bear state his strength is increased even further. It would be understandable if Vlad were still stronger as I don't intend for Michael to shift while sparring. He is the type to not want to rely on his powers if he didn't have to. Another note, he's very hairy, but not furry like Beast

2010-04-10 [Roma]: Ok, this is all stuff to go on his profile. But still, Vlad's way stronger. It's just what he does and if he's not careful, he breaks shit left and right because he's learning how to deal with his powers.

2010-04-10 [Priest Kel]: That's cool, and I didn't change it because, as I understand it, changing your profile before it being ok'd can cause some people to be irritated and I don't want to be accused of power playing. And I had the hairy thing already up there

2010-04-11 [Roma]: Yeah, I don't think I got the impression that Michael was furry, but hairy. Like chest hair and hairy legs and arms and stuff. ^_^

2010-04-11 [Priest Kel]: Yes, but Beast had mentioned how it was nice to see someone else in the mansion with fur. Only reason why I mentioned it.

2010-04-11 [Roma]: I just figured he was pretty hairy for a non-furry guy. But I can see the confusion.

2010-04-11 [Priest Kel]: I do have a question real quick, and since this seems to be the easiest way to ask I will: if I make a post and it goes unanswered how long should I wait before moving on?

2010-04-11 [Roma]: Hmm, well that can depend, really. Obviously, if a week has gone by then get him out of there. Sometimes I just edit my post to make sure that things are more clear because it might not be that people aren't logging on but that their characters don't have anything to reply to yours about. Don't worry though, Vlad just found Michael so they can talk plenty without much delay :3

2010-04-11 [Priest Kel]: Yes, yes they will.

2010-04-13 [Roma]: Hmmm...but Korvka just got a new weapon. Looks like he'll be sparring with her at first at least.

2010-04-13 [Priest Kel]: Lol That will be interesting

2010-04-23 [Duredhel]:
:D

2010-04-23 [Roma]: :O meow

2010-04-24 [The Past]: :D awww :3

2010-04-24 [Priest Kel]: Wow, now the question is how to put it up on the character sheet? Or if I can for that matter

2010-04-24 [Roma]: I took care of it. You can just look how the format is when you edit the page :D

2010-04-24 [Priest Kel]: Sweetness, thank you! *hugs*

2010-04-24 [Priest Kel]: Ok, I get it now

2010-04-29 [Roma]: It'd be cool if you did a relationship chart too :D Just a suggestion though, it's not required.

2010-04-29 [Priest Kel]: To be honest, I didn't think about it

2010-04-30 [Priest Kel]: I will have to fill it out later. I'm tired

2010-05-08 [Priest Kel]: I just thought of something...no one has mentioned the fact that my character is from an Native American reservation and I mentioned a "local casino" and gotten upset by it. I was hoping to be able to defend myself by saying that there is an actual casino in Cherokee, North Carolina

2010-05-27 [Priest Kel]: I reread the 'What not to do with powers' and don't really see anything that Michael really fits into. Although, I do realize that I need to make an edit or two in his character description. May I? Because I never included how his shapeshifting can leave him extremely weak and starving when returning to human form due to the high amount of energy it takes to shift back and forth as well as the fact that once he is in that form he can't communicate with anyone. I'm also considering adding silver as a weakness to add to the theme of lycanthropy (Yes, I know lycanthropy is werewolf, but it's the general theme that I am speaking of. If I have to I will call it ursinethropy.)

2010-05-27 [Roma]: Of course you may edit. He is your character and these edits are for improvements! Go right ahead.

2010-05-27 [Priest Kel]: ^_^ Cool

2010-05-27 [Priest Kel]: I hope that's better

2010-07-07 [Lepellier]: Aidan is oddly missing from his list XD

2010-07-09 [Priest Kel]: Lol I copied and pasted from another characters list. Sorry, I will have to fix it

2010-08-18 [Duredhel]: Ok.. Michael has not acted 16 once in the time he's been in the mansion XD

2010-08-19 [Priest Kel]: Maybe a mature 16 year old?

2010-08-19 [Veltzeh]: What would be suitable behaviour for a 16-year-old?

2010-08-19 [Priest Kel]: Not sure, it's been almost ten years since I was and I wasn't the typical 16-year old anyway

2010-08-19 [Figgy]: Well, can't take it from me. Friggin' Alabama 16-year-olds are complete idiots.

2010-08-19 [Priest Kel]: Lol Well he came from the Carolinas so that's only a step or two up

2010-08-19 [Figgy]: Much better though. However, I can't say much for yanks, either. They tend to be snobbish.

2010-08-19 [Priest Kel]: I have no clue on them at all. The only examples I have are my two teenage brothers in New Hampshire. One is severly messed up in his head (drugs, ADHD, Bi-polar and what not) and the other is autistic so I don't know how they are supposed to act at all

2010-08-19 [Figgy]: Well, that's completely different, so yeah. :P

2010-08-19 [Priest Kel]: So unless people want me to play a drugged up 16 year old (which I won't) I don't have a whole lot of experience with how typical 16 year olds are supposed to act. I was always told I was very mature for my age, as were my friends

2010-08-19 [Figgy]: Well, Michael is probably mature, since he grew up with natives, right?

2010-08-19 [Priest Kel]: Not so much that but at 12 his powers manifested and he was declared the tribal guardian and took the role VERY seriously. Basically he forced himself to grow up so that he could be the best he could be for his tribe

2010-11-19 [EmeraldGrizzly]: I wonder how he'd fair against Ursa Major from Russia's "Winter Guard"!

2010-11-19 [Priest Kel]: Don't know who that is

2010-11-24 [EmeraldGrizzly]: Look him up, you two would find so much in common! :)
