Name:
Davin Lothair Montreux
Age:
18
Gender:
Male.
Race:
Garm.
Human Appearance:
Davin appears like any other human, obviously that's the point of even having a human form. He tends to be more clumsy on two legs than on four, but still manages to have some grace to his movements. A proud being, his posture unlike many other tall males, is very good and he stands up straight at all times. He stands at approximately six feet, perhaps an inch or two above that. Unfortunately he's not done growing and anyone could tell that thanks to his constant need for food.
His dress is very good for a male too. No, not gay though he's been questioned before, but he enjoys keeping himself looking nice. What? Can guys not be interested in some fashion sense too?
As for his build, thanks to being a garm (and he enjoys running around in this little form) he stays in good shape, relatively. He's more of a runner though and is noted for his light feet. But there's something tortured about his appearance all the same. Carrying the heavy power of being a garm, he sees the other side of life where the roses die. His brown eyes sometimes reflect the other worldly visions he sees. And his torso shows the darker side of life with horrid appearing incisions that scar his abdomen and a couple on his back.
Usually, Davin keeps a clean shaven face, but unlike his face, his hair sticks out wildly. He strongly dislikes brushing it because there's usually no need to. It's short, but has a bit of a length to it, giving it body. But his dirty blond hair gives him a bit of an edge to his appearance which he needs to skirt through annoying questions and judgmental gazes.
Other Appearance:
His garm form, the most fearsome and unfashionable appearances he has. Ironically, he likes this and feels more comfortable in this skin than his human skin which leads him to break a few rules but he keeps shifting very carefully concealed. Or tries to.
Compared to an average wolf, Davin stands a bit taller, but his body is made with a lighter weight and appears skinnier with a narrow waist. His fur is a dripping, thick dark and light brown, the darker shades that appear in his human form. His eyes appear more hollow and mystical, glowing like small orbs freakishly. The entirety of his appearance as a garm does not reflect all wolf. He appears like a large wolf-like dog, perhaps a bit of German Shepherd mixed in with the appearance. Unlike some, his ears stand straight up and there is a blond flecks on his ears.
It's said that garms usually have blood specks on their coat and Davin is no exception. As for the unfortunate part, well Davin himself happens to be very unlucky, and tries not to pass that onto those who manage to run into him in garm form (or sometimes even in human). But being a garm goes hand in hand with misfortune and some things he just can't help.
Trigger:
Personality:
Davin tends to be a complex character, mainly because of the species he is: a garm. This tends to sum him up in many different ways. The first thing that's noticeable is his withdrawn attitude toward things. He's more of a loner than a group worker and enjoys going by his own rules. He sees authority as something to challenge, but quietly and not to their faces. A coward? Maybe; everyone's a coward to some extent.
But one thing he refuses to do is step down from a fight. See those scars all across his abdomen? Well in his younger days he was nearly killed by a fight that he agreed to. Getting his butt kicked is a strong dislike of his now and he finds himself more headstrong in some situations when he should be laid back. But in contrast to his quiet way, he's not very laid back. He will get something done probably before the given time frame.
Davin tries to hide the ill effects of a garm behind a nice mask that holds a cocky smirk or a nice smile. He holds himself with pride but makes sure to be nice to an extent. Seeing through a different viewpoint than most, he realizes most consider him as an odd one and so without trying to fit in any more, he accepts this curse and bears it as well as he can.
He can predict misfortune and finds himself the cause of it. Even so, he keeps the mindset that no one should feel uncomfortable while around him, and this makes him angry when others keep their distance because of their fear. But he tries to keep this issue down, buried deep within him. Unfortunately it's personal and he can usually lose his skin because of this. Because not only are they at risk for bad luck, but Davin has an incredible ability to attract bad luck to himself. Not a lucky one at all.
But mother taught him to be a gentleman and he can be. Davin isn't all mean and brawn; he has feelings too and he's imperfect like everyone else (it's not hard to see his imperfections).
Strengths/Weaknesses:
As far as strengths go, Davin doesn't have a weak stomach. That's always a good strength. He tends to be levelheaded for the most part, although moody and gloomy, but he tries to shake that off. Unfortunately life doesn't always work that way. Davin has a good strategic mind and knows the characteristics of the mind well and goes to plan out his attack from there.
Weaknesses, well he has too many. A gloomy nature comes with any garm and he proves to fall under that. No, he's not always sad and depressed, but instead of seeing the optimistic side of life, he sees the pessimistic. Davin has a dark humor about himself. He always feels the need to challenge authority. A loner at heart, he likes being his own boss. So it's not uncommon for him to shift in the non-safe zones. Ironically, he refuses to do this right to their faces and enjoys simplistic secret self-overcomings.
Davin knows how to read people, but he always manages bringing happy moods to an end to no fault of his own. As a garm, a negative aura surrounds him; perhaps not negative, but just sad. In strength to this, he manages to act rather happy for the most part; masks are good. Those can only last for so long though.
His fighting style usually takes time. He enjoys studying others and their reactions. Like a dog fight, he'll attempt to strike the jugular, otherwise he'll wait until they rush at him until he responds back. He tends to be a very patient fighter and a very quick one at that, but his speed allows him little time to focus on attacks that would do much damage. So usually it takes awhile for the opponent to feel a good sting.

Trigger:
- When people inquire why he's been held back. As if it's any of their business.
- Automatically thinking that he's a bringer of misfortune. He dislikes when people constantly keep that mindset when they're around him. Keeping friends tends to be harder than it is for others.
- People asking him if he's gay. You know Davin's thoughts on this already.
- Blood. Why do you think a garm always has blood splattered on its coat?

Character Traits/Flaws:
- Davin enjoys making up elaborate stories. These stories are often exaggerations or complete lies. So he's a bit of a storyteller, sue him.
- Usually he hums random songs if not composing his own songs. He tends to be different in the mind and perceive things differently than others. This alone can get under anyone's skin.
- He tends to be more of an introvert, not that there's anything wrong with that, but Davin's been known to make surroundings awkward. Only if he chooses to be smooth than mostly he'll be the wallflower.
- He enjoys nature because nature helps him clean his aura that carries the darker side thanks to being a garm. If someone disturbs him, he can lose his skin but he's been working on this so that if it happens, it's rare.
- Talking about senseless things is a strong dislike of his. He can't do it very well.
