Aaron Gawain App Part II silver_foxglove April 21 2009, 02:17:11 UTC
Personality: In many ways, Aaron is simply a relatively normal young boy. He's sensitive though, and more than a little cowardly, with a tendency towards being over emotional...but he has a good heart. Normally cheerful, Aaron tries not to let himself get too caught up in being wistful or too lost in his past. It isn't often that he'll talk overmuch about what he went through...but sometimes he'll open up and talk about himself, if he feels he can trust someone. Usually these periods of self-talkative don't last for long however, and he will slip into silence and turn away with a wistful glint in his eye.

Beyond that, Aaron is eternally curious, wanting to know what he can about other people and how he can possibly help them. His friends are his world...and while not a fighter he will stand at their side and show his support. Just don't ask him to fight...he doesn't like violence. It's rather scary and he's painfully aware of his own weaknesses. Normally, Aaron doesn't like confrontation, and often shies away from potential fights. He's well aware of his own shortcomings, both physical and emotional, and while he is trying to better himself, typical teenage laziness gets in the way. That, and of course his never-ending quest to find his former adoptive parent and be forgiven.

Of course, this changes in his werewolf form. Aaron is young, and doesn't know the first thing about how to control it. Because of this, on the night of the full moon of each month, at night when he transforms, he tries to chain himself to a wall, or otherwise lock himself away, because he cannot control what he does. That form is too wild, too raw and primal, and Aaron is unaware of what he does when in that form. It stays that way until he transforms back at dawn, and then he can free himself and set about business and life as normal.
Biggest Fear: Ghosts; creepy things, being alone, being a werewolf, the dark, things in the dark
Powers: Aaron is a normal teenager boy, lacking supernatural powers. Except! That on the full moon of every month he turns into a big, ugly werewolf. As a werewolf he's about 6 feet tall and quite a nasty creature with strength, speed, and animal cunning. It should be noted that Aaron doesn't remember what takes place during this time frame, and is pretty much a wild animal.

SAMPLES:
Third Person: His eyes opened slowly, gaze immediately turning upwards. What he saw wasn't his room at the cafe by any means. No, whereas he had gone to bed in a small but orderly room he was now sitting in a dank bedroom that reeked of strange smells and age. He swallowed hard, curling into the corner, coughing and choking as the candy in his mouth almost made it's way down his throat prematurely. The warm, cinnamony taste didn't assuage his feelings of trepidation; more it added to it.

Still, he sucked idly on the candy, slowly forcing his body to relax enough to uncurl itself from the near-ball he'd become, long legs sliding over the bed. The floor was hardwood, stained and aged, and every step caused a new and strange creaking sound. He definitely wasn't home. Not by any means. It all slowly flooded back to him as he stared at the dingy walls and the strange stains.

Ah yes. He'd been kidnapped. Those two strange men...Harut and Marut? Yes. So they had brought him here, or...-

No, he didn't want to think about that. Maybe it was all just a joke. Maybe he had been rescued. Maybe-

"Pamela...?" he called out in a quavery voice as he came to the doorway, peering out at the living room that met his eyes. Fairly simple, already furnished...but it didn't smell lived in. Not to his too-sensitive nose. Just the mothball stench of old fabric and dust.

"...B-Belus...?" Aaron was getting scared now. For the second time he almost swallowed the candy in his mouth, latching onto the doorframe for a moment. Everything was quiet; too quiet for Aaron. It made him more and more uneasy by the minutes. Where was he? Why had he beeen brought here? Surely Harut and Marut wouldn't have just left him here! They had alluded to someone wanting him, not...this.

Sagging against the doorway, Aaron felt a few tears of fright welling into his eyes. Not yet falling; he forced his way to the door of the apartment, jerking it open.

Nothing. Just a lonely, empty hallway with plenty of numbered doors. Leaving the safety of that room, Aaron headed outward, keeping his eyes peeled for signs of life.

There had to be someone there who could help him!

First Person: [[Voice Post]]

-Aaron's voice is soft and a little rushed as he speaks, as if he's afraid of being overheard at any moment by anyone who could come into the apartment.-

H-hello? Hello? Can anyone here me? I need help. I've been kidnapped, and those guys- they aren't here right now, so if someone could come and help me, I'd be really really grateful!

-The boy sniffles here, emotion overtaking his voice-

I...really really don't like this. Pamela? Belus! Nebiros...?

...Anyone?

I'm really scared and they could come back anytime...small>

Can someone help me, please...?

-A quiet, gasping sort of sob before he puts the phone down-

Notes:
I'm totally not adverse to Aaron's ability to infect others being restricted or nipped completely. However, I would like to keep him changing monthly during that lupine time of the month.
