Role| Neutral; Chaotic Good

Name and Aliases| Ventus, 'Big Fuzzball' or 'Hangtooth'

Birth Information| Ventus was 'conceived' and 'born' as many of those of the R'lyehan race are: through the will of a male or female who would forcefully impregnate a female, namely one that would not prove to be worthy of living after the birth of the child, alongside his rare and loved fraternal twin sister, Vosh. The surrogate of the twins was impregnated by a female, one that was an Alpha of her generation. Surrogates are killed by newborns due to them feasting their way out of their surrogate's womb and stomach, then feasting on the innards as their first meal. Subspecies vary in post birth methods, with Ngirrth'luins rounding their 'pups' to a common place known as the 'Brood Tower'. Here the pups are raised and nurtured until 'pre-pubescence', where afterwards they begin to compete for dominance. Due to their close tie and sibling bond, Vosh and Ventus dominated, both claiming their generation's title of 'Child of Ngirrth'lu, the Great One whom their species worshiped and were loosely imaged after.

Appearance| 6 feet flat; Weighs 156 pounds; Athletic proportions, well toned; White irises that gain a bright, almost 'radioactive green' near the outer edges when angered; 'Messy' styled hair usually fixed into a messy 'Mohawk/Fauxhawk'; Hair color is black-grey-ish with a similar green to his 'angry eyes' dyed onto the tips of his styled hair; His fur is primarily a medium-dark grey, with black 'splotches' littered in the following areas: Shoulders, Back. Said 'splotches' have their inner areas filled with the same 'radioactive green' as his hair's tips. His stomach area is a darker grey than his fur's primary color, with the same color wrapping under to his genitalia up to the base of his tail. There is a faint outline around the stomach pattern that matches his 'radioactive green'. Head fur is the same base color, with a dark grey 'mask/stripe' of sorts that veils around his eyes, with the same color tracing its way down the top of his 'snout' to his nose. His gums/jowls are an ash-black. Ventus has a number of long, sharp teeth that protrude from the sides of his muzzle in a woven fashion, though none of these teeth make actual contact. From the front of his maw, a single canine hangs out of the left portion of his jowls over his lower lip. Ventus has a number of scars along his arms and a single, rather large gash-like scar along the side of his left waist. After a certain event, he scarred the mark even more so to make it look like a stitching pattern, gashing through it in a perpendicular fashion multiple times. His ears are 'lynx-like' in shape, and do indeed have rough, fuzzy fringes at the tips, dyed similarly to his hair, but are slightly larger than his sister's. The backs of said ears have an upside down 'delta' image trio, with the middle one on each ear being filled like the black 'splotches', and the deltas themselves being black like said 'splotches'. His left ear has a small piece of tissue missing near the tip, implying his hearing is hindered in said ear. His tail is fox/wolf-like, increasing in size/volume as it progresses towards the tip. It measures out to be about 6ish feet long and progresses from about 6 inches at the base to 21ish inches at the widest part of the tail in terms of fluffy girth; the tail obviously retracts back in size to a thinner 'tip' after the pinnacle of the girth is reached. The main color of the tail matches that of his base fur color, fading/blending to the darker grey as it approaches the tip. Paws/Claws are colored the same dark grey as his stomach area and fade into the medium-grey as the fur approaches the upper forearm area. Pads are his signature green with his claws being ash-black. Genitalia are similar in color to the dark gray which patterns his stomach area. However, his member itself is colored similarly to his jowls/gums. 'Children of Ngirrth'lu' are all 'scarred' on their fore-paw pads with the image of their Great One's decrepit, canine head, signifying their Alpha status among their generation. In addition, because of Ventus's 'Child of Ngirrth'lu' prestige and 'blessing', 'tendrils' can be summoned from the base pads of his forepaws and from the two main 'splotches' on his shoulders as weapons, physical assistance, or just for show (colored similar to his signature green).

Clothing| Ventus has a rather limited wardrobe, only changing one or two things about his outfit between work and being around home. His casual attire is composed of relaxed clothing. His bottoms are usually black-grey cargo shorts that reach about 3~ish inches past his knees and are accessorized by a leather belt upon which a holster is clipped to. As for his top, it's usually a tank top/muscle shirt of sorts, varying between a loose or tight fit depending on which he decides to pull out and where. The shirts are usually black and tuck underneath his shorts. Due to the numerous amount of scars along his arms and paws, Ventus tends to wrap his paws and arms in thick, black bandages to hide them, usually all the way up to his lower biceps. Around his neck he wears a 'shock collar' of sorts, though it has been modified to only become active when his sister deems it necessary (aka remote switch). The collar is color schemed to match his clothing and is weighted. As for the changes from his casual attire to his work attire, it usually involves two things, one of which is usually optional. The mandatory change from home to work are his combat boots. These are heavy, black boots that dampen shock to his feet when moving through the environments he's assigned to work in. The optional change to his attire is the addition of a jacket or open-button shirt of sorts, usually thick and padded around the elbows, shoulders and back. The shirt and/or jacket sleeves are usually rolled up to around his lower biceps. Lastly, on top of all of this, he will almost always have some sort of cigarette or something along those lines on him, on hand or in his mouth, lit or unlit.

Personality| Ventus is quite a puzzle at times in terms of his personality. One moment he could be friendly, calm and quiet, only talking when his input is really needed, and another moment he could be irritable and easily upset, usually ending up assaulting who or whatever may have upset him. In general, however, he's rather laid back and conscious of what he's doing. He's often seen with his arms crossed or in his short's pockets with a cigarette (or something along those lines) hanging from his closed maw.

Likes and Dislikes| Ventus enjoys: physical sparring, hanging out with friends/family, smoking, napping, swords/blades and guns as well as using them live, Electronic/Rap music. Ventus will more than likely assault someone if they: say the wrong thing when he's in one of his moods, are an imbecile, are incompetence, try to force beliefs/views down his throat, get too clingy (sexually), try to suggest 'bad music' to him, question his scars too much, persistently try to poke at his teeth.

Hobbies/Habits| As a body guard and occasional mercenary, Ventus doesn't have too many hobbies outside of that sphere. Juggling around a knife, smoking and test firing experimental weapons usually interest him the most. However, he is known to work alongside his sister with her 'projects'.

Arsenal| Ventus carries two or three weapons on him at most times, most commonly when a job comes up, otherwise he prefers assaulting people using his bare paws and feet. His first weapon is a 'claymore' type tech-blade. The blade can be 'tricked' into a different weapon if the hilt is twisted, allow him to pull from the sheath-blade a short-sword type weapon. His second weapon is an electro-knife, similar in design to his sister's. Lastly, the third weapon varies between an electro-rifle and electro-pistol, depending on the risk of the job.

Special Abilities and/or Skills| These are two exclusive 'gifts' that come with the title 'Child of Ngirrth'lu' that Vosh and Ventus share:
Children of Ngirrth'lu: Children of Ngirrth'lu can summon, consciously and unconsciously, tendrils from their fore paw pads and main fur 'splotches' on their shoulders. These can be used as feelers, extra limbs, or weapons.
Call of Ngirrth'lu: If a Child of Ngirrth'lu is ever found to be in a dire situation, a screeching howl can be emitted from their muzzle that can be heard by their Great One on a spiritual level, causing bat-like wings to summon from the main two 'splotches' on their back nearest their shoulder blades. These enable the bearers to commit to either 'fight or flight' to ensure that their purpose is met later on in life.

Flaws and/or Fears| Ventus's devotion to Ngirrth'lu causes him to disappear at random a few times a year to 'hunt', even if something rather urgent is or is going to occur around the same time. His left ear had a piece of flesh bit from it when he was younger, meaning his hearing, a rather important sense for combat, is impaired in said ear. This is one of the reasons he has such a large scar on the left side of his waist. Ventus is rather stoic and doesn't fear much apart from death and seeing his sister hurt, physically, mentally or emotionally.

General Education| Ventus was born and raised in the lost city of R'lyeh, realm of the Great Old Ones, until the apparent age of about 16 when he and his sister made the choice to leave and integrate into what was now a 'futuristic' society and world. His combat/social interaction skills were something he learned in his old home, while his talents with cyber-tech, technical weaponry and computers came from integration into this world.

Religious Beliefs| 'Child of Ngirrth'lu' implies he follows heavily under said Great One, but as he's become more and more integrated into his social surroundings, he's dropped many of the lessons he was taught and merely looks at Ngirrth'lu as his version of 'God'. However, his faith to the Great One is deep in comparison to his sister, willingly 'hunting' if the call is heard.

Family and Relationships| Ventus was born second behind his fraternal twin sister Vosh. His mothers were never seen or identified for him, and he has never identified any female as a motherly figure.

Ngirrth'luin Species| The Ngirrth'luins are distant descendants of the Great Old One named Ngirrth'lu and his followers who were essentially familiars of himself without the power. Ngirrth'lu was known by many titles, one of the more well known ones being "The Stalker in the Snows", implying he and his followers occupied lands in either the North or elevated regions. The exact physical appearance of the being was never described beyond "a towering, wolf-like humanoid with bat-like wings", traits passed down through his specific bloodline over time, giving rise to the rite of being a 'Child of Ngirrth'lu'. As generations passed and new ones were born, the decrepit, beast-like appearance of the Ngirrth'luin became more and more subtle, until only two semi-beast-like appearances became common. One for males and another for females. If not for the Ngirrth'uin culture and environment, they would be much like any other anthromorphic being of the 'normal realm/world'. As for the differences between males and females, the differences are primarily in the facial structure and genitalia. Males have much more distinct canine facial shapes/craniums, usually with a number of large teeth hanging out over their jowls. Depending on their eating patterns and self care, the teeth can grow wildly or remain more subtle (such as Ventus). As for females, the facial/cranial structure is a bit more feline, though there are still traces of canine traits in the structure. Female teeth do not grow as wildly, but their primary two fangs/canines tend to grow out from under their upper jowls and over their lower lip. However, this is a slowly disappearing trait
and is usually only seen amongst Alpha-type females (such as Vosh). Alpha-type beings within the culture are known as 'Children of Ngirrth'lu', a right stating that a specific being within a generation is a distant, direct descendant of the Great One's bloodline. Alpha-types are identified by their usual physical features and fur color patterns, most commonly a bright, radioactive-type green (such as Vosh or Ventus) or, on more rare occasions, an orange-yellow type color. Those not of Alpha-type blood are commonly duller colors, such as Teal, flat reds, deep blues, or deep/dark purples and greens. Mating patterns within the Ngirrth'luin are rather violent and also act as a form of 'Darwinism'. Birth Mothers are known simply as Surrogates due to them dying once the actual pup is born. Those who impregnate them are usually the most fit, physically and mentally. The most common to impregnate Surrogates are Male, while a rare occasion of an Alpha-type female is recorded to have happened at least twice. If an Alpha-type female does impregnate a Surrogate, it is not through use of a phallus (aka 'p***s'), but rather they use the tendrils blessed to them to act as members. From one such recording of this rare encounter, it is said to look "more like an act of defacing, demoralization and shaming, looking almost as if Ngirrth'lu himself had taken control of the female and forced his destructive, predatory nature on and into the Surrogate, yet the Surrogate feels this force as well and willingly lets her life become an impending, glorifying death." Mating seasons only tend to occur once every being of a previous generation reaches the implied age of 21, though the mating is done within the generation previous to them. The Ngirrth'luin are stable species population-wise. No known overpopulation issues have ever been recorded due to the way their population control with Surrogates works.

Quirks and Fun Facts| Ventus is actually a DJ in his spare time and assists his sister with her projects to better improve her sets as well as work on his own. Ventus has a bad habit of keeping his arm-wraps on nearly 24/7, only taking them off when his sister Vosh calls him out on it. Ventus hates sweet foods with a passion, but can't handle anything too spicy either. Ventus has never actually killed anyone in his lifetime, yet. Unlike his sister, Ventus does reminisce and desire to visit their old home at least once a year.
