CHARACTER INFORMATION

Name-- Meander
Fandom-- 10%+/Nature of Nature's Art
Age-- I'm told by the creator that Meander is in his mid-twenties in human years (something like three and a half to four years in dog years).
Gender-- male
Tattoo Position-- Meander's tattoo can be located on the triceps muscle - or upper muscle, near the shoulder - of his right front leg. Due to his thick orange coat, the tattoo itself would be large (four inches wide) and at its default color black.

Personality-- Animals are allowed within society to choose their own names if desired (otherwise, by default, they are referred to by scent). Meander chose his name, "to wander around kind of leisurely", by his own accord, and in reality, the name both does and doesn't suit him. On the surface, because of Meander's below average critical thinking as compared to other society animals, he's often seen as "slow", dull, ( ... )

Strengths & Weaknesses-- One of Meander's greatest problems and the source of some of his struggles in canon is his attentive and perceptual abilities. While enrolled in the College, his grades often suffered, and there has been at least one instance where he's been held back a year. Meander's teacher, Mr. Rule, often feels frustration for his pupil, as Meander still tries his best in school, but it's implied that he's not "smart". Of course, what Meander is really after is persistence and focus, something he has somewhat achieved after events in canon but not fully grasped. In short, Meander will probably struggle with puzzles and mental challenges, but if he has enough drive and determination, he should be able to eventually find a solution. While he may feel distress over a situation, he never truly gives up ( ... )

Upon bringing Meander to Fiat, a medical expert on the Halo Brain, it appears on close inspection that Meander has ignored a cardinal rule: never use more of the brain than the equivalent currently utilized. Apparently, there is a 10%+ limit on the capacity of the Halo Brain to be used at any one time, as the Halo Brain generates a great amount of heat (hence the fire that may spout on the top of his head). The result of surpassing the limit is brain damage. In Meander's case, he ended up lucky: he only lost abilities of speech and motor functions temporarily ( ... )

Since Meander's once intact, complex mental facilities were erased, Meander will "revive" in the Tower. He will remember only fighting Rule up until the point the style to make him vacuous is used on him, and he will be fuzzy on the details of the fight.

Appearance-- FULL-BODY (The "dissipating blocks of his brain" are symbolic.)
CLOSE-UP
Yes, it should be obvious upon meeting Meander that he is not human; more precisely, Meander is a maned wolf brought up in an alternate South America. As such, he bears many characteristics similar to most maned wolves: a brown-orange coat, large ears, tinted brown, a dark mane, muzzle, and dark socks on his legs. A patch of white in the form of a crest can be found close underneath his chin on his neck, and his tail and lower belly are white as well. Some more individual features of Meander may be his somewhat thinner coat (than most maned wolves) and his bright, simple eyes. While Meander will often have this in the heat of battle, the slightly iridescent flames from between his ears and a little ( ... )

What is this thing used for? This is too weird. All I can remember was that I was fighting with Mr. Rule, and then I kinda...fell asleep. Or blacked-out. I can't remember. I wish I knew what was going on. [He tilts his head; because he doesn't quite know yet that this device is for posting video responses, his eyes are focused a little away from the camera, so he looks like he's speaking to the tile in front of him. Soon, however, his confused face contorts to something like a scowl.] I can't believe Mr. Rule would do something like that. I gotta stop him...! [He pauses, glancing around the weird room-like thing, except it's a lot bigger and more polished and...alien than anything he's ever seen. He returns to nudging the device, then looks up and speaks again.] If I can stop him while I'm here. Ohhhh...Quintet's not here either...

Third Person Sample-- He couldn't remember ever having such an eventful day, even including the day he discovered his teachers were selling the services of wild coyotes made brainless. To think, he ended ( ... )

Questions? Nope. As I'm applying for a non-human character, I imagine you will have to investigate him thoroughly. "10%+" is a webcomic arc on the site "Nature of Nature's Art" created by Zachary Braun, all of the arcs on the site dealing with the same alternate-universe Earth (the arcs are separate in terms of time periods, characters, and storyline). It's a bit confusing at first for a new reader, so if you need me to explain anything more, please ask! I'd be happy to.

What is the secret password? "There is no such thing as being too detailed." I'm seem to employ this regularly in RP posts and in my writing, much to the disbelief of others.

Could you provide his canon point as well?

Canon...point? As in, what point from canon he's been taken to the Tower?

Yes.

Okay. In the comic, Meander loses his advanced brain around page 108 and is soon reduced to the typical instinctual animal we know in real life - thus, in some ways, he can be considered "dead" when this happens to him. As such, Meander ought to be "taken" to the Tower (at least, he only remembers the events up to this point) from sometime during the fighting between pages 100 and 108 of the comic - before Rule uses "Galena".
