Birthplace: Sultros
Appearance: Dov has got brown hair and brown eyes both in his human and animal form. He is 6''1 tall and has a muscular body. They usually call him cute; even though he is quite tall and fit. It could be because he always smiles or tries to roar even in human form. He actually is a kodiak bear. They are large and strong - and furry. As a kodiak bear he is all that, but as human he has a hard time growing both facial and body hair. Instead the hair on his head grows really fast - he usually cuts it once a week. Sometimes he keeps the beard stubble of a months work - because it makes him feel more manly.
Dov is not a fashion freak. He only owns one outfit and that is enough for him. Just shirt, pants, undergarments, coat and boots. When shifting to animal form he must take off all his clothes so the less he has on the easier.
He has sligthly longer and larger canine teeth as human, which is a trait from his animal form. As the kodiak bear he weighs around 520 kilos and, when standing on his back legs, is 8 ft tall - on all four he is around 4 or 5 ft.
Personality Dov Armel is a bit hard to handle. He can be really shy and tend to not engage in conversation with people. If someone start talking to him though you never really know where the conversation will go. One moment he can be really aggressive and angry over nothing, and in the next he can be really curious. He often forgets in which form he currently is and sometimes tries to scare away others with a growl or roar - in human form. As a human he also forgets to wear clothes from time to time, and tries to catch fish in near rivers with his bare hands. As a kodiak bear he might try talking to a human or barter with them - until he realises his body is a bit too furry to be human.
The charm with Dov is his loyalty and determination, also his childish approach to different situations. He searches for someone to bond with, but so far he had a hard time finding someone who can handle him. Someone who can embrace his anger, curiosity and childish remarks. With Dov you'll never have a boring day. It is always happening something - for better or worse. The trick is to find out his weakness and exploit it. He needs someone who can control him.
When made friends with Dov he is really docile - or usually. If you call - he will come. Even if he do not bond with his friend he cherish them highly and will never let them down. The opposite goes for his enemies. It can get really messy if he meets an enemy on one of his bad days. You do not want to make a kodiak bear angry.
Character History Dov, pronounced
Dahv, was born in the cool air of Sultros summer. Both his parents were Kelvic. His mother was an owl and his father a moose. They fell in love in the same city he was born. After building a relationship for three years they mated and gave birth to their son - Dov. Both his parents had a bondmate. They were kind humans; a woman and a man - also a couple. Dov grew up with two mums and two dads. The human couple could not give birth - they had tried but the woman never got pregnant. Therefor the humans treated him with even more kindness.
As a kodiak bear his parents had a hard time to keep up. His father, Marin Armel, tried to give him the fight he needed as a cub, but it was hard. In the end they let him out in a small forest outside the city - his mother took on her animal form and watched him carefully so nothing bad would happen to him. Dov was only allowed to go into the forest alone in animal form. While in the forest he found a cave he liked. Once a week his mother let him stay in the cave over night and then catch his breakfast in the river.
Dov grew fast and was old enough to live his own life at three years old. Even if his mother wanted to care for him a bit longer he could not allow it. His whole body boiled with excitement of getting out in the world alone. Becuase of this urge he set off on a journey to find his own home. He travled alone for most of the time since he is shy, and he did not transform into human form until he reached the city of Sylrias. Ever since he arrived he has been searching for a bondmate - the kind of bondmates his parents had. Someone to take care of him and help him. There is a lot for him to learn in the big city and he tends to get into trouble often.
