Erloch about to pick a fight;
underestimate the grin
and you'll wind up dead.

• Name
Erloch
      (pronounced air loch -- like the Scottish "loch")

• Full Name
Erik McCulloch, Alpha of House Rh'thaou, Clan Taratus

• Nicknames
Eri (by sister only)
Erlochk (by Uszcem only)

• Age
28

• Gender
Male (heterosexual but open-minded)

• Species
A true tarati, he was born a shapeshifter (not genetically altered to shift), between full-human, full-tiger, and tiger-tarat (a mixture of each).

• Rank
The alpha male of his house, Erik and his sister Caoilte co-lead, with two harems and several warriors behind them.

• Duties
Whatever (the hell) he feels like doing, really. Most of what he does is based on a whim or strong desire. About his only goal in life is to continue ruining the lives of Shainon of House Nhonn and his followers. If he can manage to kill them, all the better.

• Human Form •

• Hair
Medium auburn-red with subtle golden highlights, straight and full in volume, he usually just keeps it short and brushed back.

• Eyes
Light, golden-brown in color, usually squinted ever so slightly and accompanying either a lazy or wicked grin.

• Complexion
Medium to light in tone, with few freckles. He is capable of a respectable tan, but it takes some doing and is not worth the effort in his opinion.

• Physique
Erik is only medium-tall, about 6' with an impressive musculature. He is naturally stocky and well-proportioned, but his life on the run keeps him trim and energetically fit.

• Animal Form •

• Fur
As a tiger, his fur has dark striping over a much lighter background. Specifically, his chin, throat, belly, and the undersides of his limbs are all white, the rest of his body is a deep shade of rust, and his stripes are deepest-red, nearly black like dried blood.

• Eyes
His eyes are golden yellow with only a hint of green. Large and intelligent, but inherently dangerous, almost...insane.

• Physique
Long-bodied and low to the ground with a vertical slenderness, but muscular all the same, Erik could level a pro wrestler with one lunge.

• Taratus Form •

• Hair
As a tiger-tarat, Erloch has deeper, darker shade of red to his hair. It is longer and wilder, requiring much more management than as a human. He usually ties it back just enough to keep it out of his face.

• Eyes
Golden-brown like his human eyes, but about twice as maniacal as his tiger's eyes, they are daunting to look at for any length of time.

• Appearance
Erloch's limbs are longer in proportion to his body than when he is in his tiger form. Altogether, his musculature is lighter than a true tiger.

• Personality •

• Attitude
What is the difference between eccentricity and good old lunacy? Some would say it's the money. Erloch and his sister would answer, "refinement." Erloch has a condescending air about him that rarely lifts around others, and if he particularly dislikes someone, he may throw in a snide comment or two...if he doesn't kill them outright.

• Likes/dislikes
He dislikes males, unless they happen to be his sister's playthings. Otherwise (and even then) he must regard them as a potential threat. He loves to see others in pain. He will often wear the blood of his current victim, tracing it into designs on his skin or carving it out of theirs. This is what his harem is for. He likes to experiment, rather scientifically, what makes them bleed. Or moan, or whatever... in pain or pleasure. And if anybody asks, for him, they are pretty much the same thing...

• Hobbies
Erloch really doesn't care for music, but since his sister loves it so much, he will play on occasion. His instrument of choice is the bass guitar, for it's thrumming, almost purring, song.

• Relations •

• Bond
True Chaos dragon Uszcem

• Mates
Erloch has three confirmed mates, all of which are bound to him somehow. In fact, most of his House owes him a great debt, bound in mind, body, soul, or some combination of the three. His harem are comprised of Sylnes, a gentle and delicate gazelle-shifter, Caran, a tall and flashy yet timid ostrich shifter, and his favorite, the African wild dog shifter Gaeval.

• Parents
Unknown, though if he and his sister are the current Alphas, it can be safely assumed that his parents met a prolonged and grisly end.

• Siblings
Erloch has one sibling, his littermate and co-leader Caoilte, better known as Caoiloch.
