Iki's Minion(s)

[Lojiki]

Name:
Chance Sterling

Nickname:
Stray
( Only friends actually call him this )

Theme Song

Age:
17

Race:
Were-Dog

Grade:
11th

Position:
Seme

Abilities:
Shifting into a ( Massive) Doberman is by far his most noticeable talent, however like any Were being he does have pretty impressive speed and strength; Certainly he can outmatch a normal human yet.. He has found a few species that can outshine him in both areas. On a side-note he works out often and is active in sports of many types, thus any latent speed or strength he inherited genetically has been tempered through training. The boy's natural healing is amped up, and shifting forms will accelerate the process even more. His senses are of course very acute, his hearing and smell in particular can be used against him as they are very sensitive. His hand-to-hand skills are fairly good, weapons are not to Stray's taste but he is still learning how to use them.. and he can take quite a beating before going down.

Special features:
Due to his extracurricular activities outside of school, namely the brawling and prowling, he does have a few random scars.. But thanks to his healing there is nothing too noticeable. His eyes do take a red haze when his beast is close to the surface, otherwise they are a calm metallic grey. Stray is 6'6 ft tall and 193 lbs, muscled but still a little lean.

Personality:
Charismatic, in an aloof sort of way. Even when messing around with friends he seems to be distant, observing.. though this is by no means 'hostile' behavior. The boy is actually quite friendly if caught in a good mood, laid back and playful though his humor is often considered 'strange' by those in his group. He cannot express himself very well, relying on actions instead of trying to explain what is on his mind.. this makes him seem very impulsive when in reality he thinks things through before he leaps.

Of course Stray is a dog and behaves as such.. loyal, protective, and gentle as any of his kin; However with the good.. comes the bad. He is a fighter, Beta-borderline-Alpha, and though he attempts to ignore it jealousy does gnaw at his temper.. If pushed too far he can become aggressive, but never harmful towards those he cares for. He enjoys a good brawl, and is actually addicted to the ruffian lifestyle he's led up to now.. his 'Pack' being a group of deviants that share his wild nature. Despite his looks, or his behavior, the boy is actually a straight A student with obvious respect and affection for his school-life and teachers.. They just can't tame the animal in him.

Crush:
Stefan Ryalis

Bio:
A fairly common story in his home city, Stray was actually raised by his father.. a late ruffian himself, and more than happy to see his son take over as the next generation of deviants in the city's backstreets. Honestly it was a good life, he had a niche and thrived in the poverty-level part of the City.. He worked the jobs that he could find and enjoyed a freedom few would understand. School was actually his own idea, the boy attending every day without fail and smoothly balancing the work that his father sent his way.

Born and bred to this sort of life it was quite a shock when his father passed away in a freak accident just days before Stray's Fourteenth Birthday.. and he met his estranged uncles. Apparently his father had left a wealthy family to live a life of adventure and freedom.. and while his old man had gotten his wish to the very end, he'd left his son to a sinking ship. Luckily.. his uncles were more than happy to cut him a deal. If he agreed to go with them, attend the school of their choice, and be an active member of their family they would ensure he would be taken care of.

His mother was the Were in the family, his father a simple human with a crooked grin.. yet despite the difference in species his uncles have proven ten-fold that they view him as family, regardless of the short amount of time they have known each other. Not to mention he and his first cousin are as thick as thieves.. the pair so obviously different that it is a wonder they get along at all. His family understands that he needs to run wild from time to time, and he is affectionate when speaking of, or to, them. For them.. he holds himself to a firm standard, taking his studies seriously and showing only respect to his Teachers.

[Lojiki]

Name:
Maximum Sterling

Nickname:
Max
( Few actually know his full name. )

Theme Song

Age:
17

Race:
Human

Grade:
11th

Position:
Seke-Seme



Abilities:
Max is referred to as 'The Off-Switch' by his family, simply because when he touches someone he can lock down their magical abilities.. It lasts only as long as he, or something of his like hair or blood, is touching them and depending on the skill he is suppressing it can drain his energy to the point of rendering the boy unconscious. He is, obviously, learning how to control and extend this skill. He also has a minor telepathic ability, able to touch the minds of others and speak with.. or 'influence'.. those around him. This also takes effort, though not nearly as much as his other talent, and it helps him to understand his cousin when Stray is in his dog form. Because of this, he can deflect others from reading his own thoughts.. unless his guard is down of course.

If it can be called an 'ability' or not is up for debate, yet Max has the oddest talent of charming his way out of most troublesome situations.. lying so naturally that even the corniest of lines that slip from his silver tongue sound smooth and sincere. He can also cheat with the best of them in card games, and pick-pocket like a pro.. Stray is teaching him to fight but he rarely attempts to use the moves he has learned, convinced he can run or talk his way out of danger.

Special features:
Max is tall, 5'8 ft, and roughly 188 lbs.. Thanks to his cousin's encouragement he has a bit of muscle, but subtly so. His hair is often bound back at the nape of his neck, or braided down over his shoulder absently.. He does not let people touch it, and his reactions if pushed can be rather rude. It is a rare occasion when he is not dressed in something stylish, even during one of his cousin's 'rumbles' which he has started to attend for kicks and giggles or when he attempts to cook/clean.

Personality:
When they say 'Body language speaks louder than words' they describe Max perfectly.. That is to say, he uses his body language to express his calmly delivered.. and to the point.. words. With this off-handed charm he obviously thrives in the theatrical arts.. Responsible, mature most of the time, and very suave.. However his self-confident personality and obvious disinterest in being 'friends' with everyone often make him seem arrogant. He simply does not care if he is liked or disliked, and will ignore the negative attention easily enough.. comfortable in his own skin and able to adapt to new situations with little effort at all. It is wise to remember that he is a bit of a flirt, actively teasing with those that start the banter.. but he's never been the type to get serious. That sort of emotional attachment is intimidating to him, so typically he escapes before he can be caught in such a way. He is twice as gun-shy around larger men, openly distrustful and actually stand-offish if approached by them.

Max.. is a little naughty, using his talent of telepathy to get into bars and smoke without getting into trouble for being underage. However he has never considered using it to force others into unsavory acts or to get out of trouble with his teachers.. he has too much pride to use tricks in such ways. The boy is oddly mature for his age, despite his mischievous habits.. That does not, however, mean he is an adult just yet. Unlike his cousin Max is more than happy to act childish or devious when the moods strike him.. often found sulking in a bar or avoiding the problem when something's troubling him. He has found he likes to cook or clean to vent this stress as well.. not that he'll ever admit it; He has taken a liking to the culinary arts.

Crush:
Zane Colten

Bio:
A son of the house of Sterling, he has a loving family and a comfortable life.. but like his mother, a free-spirited woman he hardly remembers, Max is drawn to the simple pleasures in life and the thrill of experiencing new things.. Finding a companion in his long-lost cousin was a surprise to both the boys, yet they have become close friends over the few years they've known each other. Aside from the obvious and vague facts about his family he will not actually share his personal life without prodding; Even simple things like his favorite color or the type of food he likes.. and his full name, which was given to him by his mother so he would live and enjoy his life to the Maximum.

This was both a blessing and a curse.. As the boy took her intentions to heart and actively sought out new things, sneaking out at night to play and explore. One night, he chanced upon a club.. it was short work to 'talk' his way inside, with his talent of mind manipulation they let him walk right in. However.. inside.. Max was traumatized so badly that he still cannot stand to be alone near men bigger than himself. As he later told his cousin, who found him upon his return to the house, a drunken Man had been over zealous to make Max his 'bride'.. to this day the mere mention of 'Marriage' or 'devotion' still leaves the taste of ash in his mouth.

[Lojiki]

Name:
Prosper Trine

Nickname:
Prop

Theme Song

Age:
18

Race:
.. Human, as far as he'll admit.

Grade:
11th

Position:
Uke

Abilities:
Glamour: The ability to appear human, much like a partial-shift.. Just enough to hide the 'freaky' traits. It does take energy, and any sudden shocks or pains will make him loose his control over it.. he's still learning, and will sometimes revert to his natural form in his sleep.

Hereditary: Aside from the looks, he didn't get much from his father.. No super speed or strength, only slightly-enhanced senses, and as far as he can tell he has had no desire to eat other people. He does however have annoyingly fast regeneration abilities, and a knack for 'feeling' or 'making' precious ores, minerals, and gemstones. All it takes is a little earth, dirt or stone, cupped in his hands with a few drops of his own blood and saliva.. and with a burst of magic it is transmuted into the image in his mind. This lets him create unique and seemingly impossible shaped stones, valuable beyond compare.. and very rare, considering how little he will use this ability. Likewise he can shape metals and minerals with this skill. He can't help but hear, and feel comforted by, the voices of stones and the earth itself.. But he'll never admit it.


Special features: He will always have small fangs, regardless of his 'form'.. And his tail has a habit of appearing when he isn't paying attention. The glasses are a touchy issue, while his sight is perfect in his 'true' form it is rather poor when he resumes his human one.. the stress of hiding his true nature taxing his eyesight a great deal.

Personality:
Prop does his school work to the letter, excelling at his studies while only doing so-so in sports.. Art is his true gift, sculpting and at times jewelry/metal making. Sadly.. he isn't very motivated to show what he can do, trying to keep himself fixed on Business and Marketing classes to ensure a 'useful' future despite his inner craving to create things. His art is wonderful because he is so sensitive to others and their emotions that he actually has to shut himself off from them to escape it.. He understands others very well for this reason, sympathizing if not always voicing himself in the matter. His own emotions run very deep, chaotic in his adolescent mind.. and even when he attempts to do good things for others they are generally misunderstood. So he stamps them down and hides behind other people's willingness to believe he is just some abrasive point-Dexter. His stubborn dedication to learning is obvious, and he isn't afraid to fight for something if he feels it is important enough for the effort it would take to do it.

The longer people are near him the more they will see of his nature, the boy a bit of a know-it-all due to his vast studies and high I.Q.. When riled he can be very passionate and emotional.. as well as childishly stubborn. Though he seems comfortable in his own skin the boy is actually afraid of himself on a deeper level.. of not being human when that is all he's ever known himself to be. Because of this he is embarrassed about showing his true form, and of course the abilities that came with his goblin blood. This doesn't effect his view of others, taking them as they are readily regardless of how they treat him, but it does make him a little sensitive towards questions about himself. He doesn't look it, but he has a rather active sense of humor.. and a knack for causing mischief despite his better judgment. Not to mention a Rebellious streak that often gets him scolded. Just because he is a 'good student' doesn't mean he meekly follows rules and orders, if he believes it is pointless he'll ignore or dismiss it and tolerate the consequences. This ranges from school to his personal life, and is often the reason as to why he ends up in trouble. His most noticeable habit? Sleeping around campus, typically in a nice shady spot on the grass with a book in his grasp.



Crush:
In complete denial. Love does not exist, it is just a chemical reaction that can be explained and ignored just as simply. At least.. that is what he tells himself over and over.

Bio:
Prop was raised by his single mother, a loving and gentle woman who loved every story and myth she could find.. She would read him different books about magical creatures every night before bed and once told him that his very name 'Prosper' had been given to him by a Goblin.. Unfortunately he didn't realize until much later that she had been referring to his Father.

He grew up like a normal human kid, his school life was calm and filled with friendship and ever-typical studies that he aced easily.. Prop had always been a little aloof, learning to protect himself from emotional over-load by keeping a friendly barrier between himself and his schoolmates; Maybe this is why they fled so quickly.. They hadn't meant to hurt him, he knew, but the pain still came and he learned how fickle others could be.

It didn't happen until he was half way through his Fourteenth year, his mother falling ill slowly.. but steadily. Stressed by the riot of emotions this caused him the boy started to seriously repress it all; Taking care of her to the point that he neglected his studies and learned how to do the housework.. In the end he even took a few jobs, his grades surviving only because he started to shrink away from his social life in general. The day his mother passed away.. just days before his Sixteenth birthday.. All of that control just snapped as he was told the news at school, the boy fainted from the shock. When he woke it was to the familiar faces of his schoolmates, twisted into wary masks of shock and unease.. He'd shifted for the first time into his Goblin form, and was being carried out of the school by a stranger.. Who had the same eyes as him. His Father, a Quarry Goblin, had come to take custody. He still has legal guardianship since Prop's mother passed away, but they've rarely spoken aside from idle courtesy. As soon as he taught the boy how to Glamour, or 'hide' himself, he sent him to this school.. Giving him a fund that the boy never touches and a phone that has a list of contacts Prop uses only once a month to check in. He has a habit of drifting, drawn to social events and lively places despite his inability to really 'click' with people.
