[Nustril]

Nustril Basic Information Race: Kelvic Birthday & Age: 45th of Winter, 505 AV, 5 Years old Gender: Male Physical Description Skin: Caucasian Hair: Blonde Eyes: Off-gold / Bronze Height: 7" Weight: 263 lbs. Fur: Melanistic Tiger Eyes: Off-gold / Bronze Height: 46 in. At the shoulder Length: 147 in. Tip to tail (40 in. tail) Weight: 770 lbs. text : These measurements represent an accurate depiction of a large adult male Siberian Tiger. He is at the upper extreme of height, weight, and length in the same way that seven feet is at the upper extreme of human height. As Siberia does not exist in Mizahar however, the name does not translate properly and I have chosen merely to describe him as 'Tiger'. Nustril is a large man and a powerful specimen of both human and tiger. In both forms he is at or near the limits of what each species can produce in terms of size. His broad body is most often concealed by a toga and a loose cloak when in human form. Nustril's face is framed by slightly curly, shoulder-length blonde hair and he wears a neatly trimmed beard and mustache; just as Cypress likes it. Both lower and upper canines resemble the fangs of his tiger form, in a miniature which fits inside his human mouth. Still, he finds it difficult to talk without exposing his overlarge teeth. While in tiger form his fur shows the result of a rare defect known as Melanism, making his fur much darker and giving him the illusion of being jet black in entirety. In reality he bears the same markings as any other tiger, but they are all different shades of black. Very rarely he will don a specially made scale mail barding in this form, but only when he feels that he and Cypress' lives will soon be in great peril. This barding makes him a fearsome warrior indeed, but it is dangerous for him to shift when wearing it and he requires aid in both donning and removing it. Personality Nustril is bonded to Cypress, a Drykas whom he encountered in his native Wildlands while she was traveling abroad. He is a loyal and loving kelvic. His temper is as powerful as his roar, however, and he is often distrustful of strangers. This flaw in his personality becomes more glaring the more close these strangers become to Cypress.
