Costume Description/Image:

Personality: Cool-headed and calm, watches his opponents to see their weak spots and uses that information to defeat them. When provoked, he becomes angry, and releases a host of animalistic noises, such as growls, snarls and roars, and attacks quickly and viciously.

History: Trace Faolan was a normal human up until his sixteenth birthday, with the exception of an odd-shaped birthmark on the back of his shoulder. The most impressive thing about his life before that point is that he was the star quarterback at his high school. On his sixteenth birthday, his birthmark burned with a fiery pain, and he dropped into a raging fever. A group of religious cultists who worshipped a god who took the form of a wolf broke into Trace's home and kidnapped him, believing that he was the new incarnation of their god.

He was carried into the woods, and they prepared to sacrifice him, to bring their god, known as Romolus, into the world. They tore his shirt off, revealing that his birthmark was shining silver. The sight of it caused the cultists to stagger back in shock, as Trace snapped the powerful chains holding him in place. Hopping down, he growled, his eyes animalistic, his pupils long slits set in the green irises. A low rumble escaped his lips as he smiled viciously with jagged teeth filling his mouth. "I am Romolus Weylyn, god of wolves!" He cried, letting out a bone-tearing roar at the same time. The cultists fell to their knees in praise, as Trace's body started to change.
This is Trace's birthmark.
His muscle mass began to increase further still, increasing his strength more and more. His speed was also increased, his senses became those of a wolf, his intelligence becoming sharper, more refined, his entire facial structure changing to that of a wolf's muzzle. Romolus' ultimate goal was to command all the canines of the world to overthrow humanity, under his guidance, him being of a higher intelligence. Trace realised Romolus' potential to be a force for good, and managed to come to an agreement with the wolf god. Trace would be able to use the deity's powers to fight for the good and the just, and Romolus would be allowed to control Trace's body on his birthday every year. As this deal suited both, a contract was signed in blood, an unbreakable agreement between the wolf god and the human host.

Over the next few years, Trace mastered the art of transforming into Romolus. At the beginning, his transformation was sparked by times of great personal duress, and Trace could only transform by imitating the effect, however, through intense training, he managed to locate the emotional trigger, and transform at will. Once this had been completed, Romolus informed Trace of another transformation, into a body that was completely wolf. Slowly, as trust built, Romolus allowed Trace access to more and more skills
derived from the god. Trace became able to talk to dogs and wolves, to control his emotions to stop a sudden transformation that could cause panic and reveal his identity. His senses increased markedly, even in human form.

The two began conversing in Trace's mind, mainly whilst his body slept, and Trace discovered that, because humans could only use ten percent of their brain, the wolf god could easily outsmart him, the deity being able to access over sixty percent of its own brain. Trace and Romolus began to trust each other more and more, and Romolus allowed Trace access to increased portions of his brainpower, but slowly, as if it happened too fast, Trace would have been overwhelmed by the amount of information and driven insane. The two began conversing while Trace was awake as well, their discussions straying more into each other's history. Trace told the wolf god about his minor league football career, and Romolus told the human about the cycle in which he lived. Romolus inhabited a host, who he made more powerful, kept healthy and protected. When the host died, for whatever reason, the wolf god would possess a newborn baby, awakening on their sixteenth birthday.

Since then, the contract has been kept, Trace mastered in law and is a professional lawyer, whilst still playing sports at the weekend. Romolus finds the contract allows him the best possible deal and respects Trace's ability to make deals that benefit both parties involved.

Powers:Transformation - Trace can transform into Romolus, and into a full wolf form

Multilinguilism - Trace, in all forms, can understand and speak to any animal in the Canidae family, including dogs, wolves, jackals, coyotes, and foxes. (However, due to the distinction of the Canini (or dog-like) and Vulpini (or fox-like) tribes, Trace finds it harder to understand foxes than those of the Canini tribe. He likens it to "trying to understand someone with a really heavy accent."


Strength - In his Romolus form, Trace can lift fifty tons. Romolus claims in his pure, "unadulterated" form, (i.e. not possessing someone,) he could "spin the earth on my finger like a basketball." As a derived power, he can also leap incredible distances. He has been shown to leap up to eighty feet in the air, and over a hundred feet forwards.

Speed - Trace is remarkably above average speed for someone his age, and size. In his Romolus form, he can move at approximately ninety miles per hour. Again, Romolus claims without possessing someone, he could top that.

Senses - Trace's senses are at the level of a normal wolf's so are slightly above a normal humans.

Character Image/Description:

Roleplay Sample: (If new or new character) Trace's face was still. His eyes closed, he stood rigidly. His arms were held at his sides as he breathed easily. "It's gonna rain." He said simply. The ever-present voice in his mind growled gently. "Oh, shut it." He snapped. He had no time for Romolus, or his temper. One couldn't tell by looking, but he was a mighty wolf-god. Well, kind of. The avatar of a wolf-god, but it was close enough.

"Curse you and your constant long-winded thinking!" Growled Romolus. "If I didn't need you, you'd be dead already." In Trace's mind, the wolf god strode back and forth in his palace. An accurate reconstruction of his actual palace, it was full of walled-up rooms, staircases that went nowhere, and doors that opened into oblivion. Life was bearable for the wolf god, but he disliked his avatar's logic.

"Then I guess I'm just lucky that you need me." Trace sneered. Yeah, that's me, luck all over. He thought, somewhat sarcastically. He hummed a gentle tune, as he leaned forward, eyeing his targets. They entered the building, and Trace straightened up. "Rom, time to hunt." In his intricate palace, constructed entirely in Trace's mind, there was a flash and an explosion of smoke, as the human replaced the wolf-god in the throne room.

"My turn." The wolf-god growled, Trace's body changing. A dense coat of dark brown fur covered his body, his muscle mass increasing by an incredible amount. His face began to stretch and pull itself into the appearance of a wolf's muzzle. "Now to handle this, where you could not, mortal." The deity sneered, leaping from the rooftop to the ground. He landed silently, and crept over to the building. In a simple movement, he stabbed a claw through the door and began to pull it downwards, exposing a long opening in the door.

"You know, you could have just opened the door." Trace said, as he reclined on Romolus' throne, spinning a football on two fingers.

Ahh.. Where's that RP sample, darling? :] And, check your history.. you've repeated yourself in the second paragraph.

As for the power of "Senses." When looking at the DNA, he can only tell the species, correct? He cannot pin it to a certain person unless he knows that person's odor, correct? If so, that's a bit of a god modded power there.. even if it's tiny and etc.

I'd also like a better description of your character when a human. The wolf man/wolf forms should be easier to find, considering werewolves and wolves are largely populating the image search engines on the internet. :]

Sorry. My images were a little f***ed. Iill sort it out.

And yes, he can only tell species, not individual person.

Bump

Bump.

Where do you get the extra matter to transform? You're 6'2" and 236 pounds, then you're 6' 9" and 459 pounds, almost twice your human weight. Where do you get the extra body mass to transform? I just don't think you should be able to, out of thin air, double in size.

He's a god. Tell me the last time a god gave a f*** about anything to do with that.

Gods still have to follow the laws of physics, they don't just go away because of your status. That's god-modding. You're making yourself the only exception to a basic law of matter. "Matter cannot be destroyed, nor created."

Meh, comic books have been breaking the laws of physics since forever. I'm merely following a trend.

...It distinctly says in the rules that this place isn't the same as comic books, the rules of those books don't apply here. Every rule of this site is its own rule and I'm simply saying that the laws of physics still apply here, unlike in most comics.

Alright, do you have your powers only in your wolf form? Or also in human form? If not, they both need powergrids. As for the ability to control animals, well that'd have to cost you some EP, so I'd suggest just scrapping that power so it wont effect your grid too much. To have multiple powers, you have to split EP. I think you should have 2 EP, 1 for Senses, 1 for Multilingualism.

Many people in here break the laws of physics. According to the laws of physics, no one can be superhumanly strong, but that's an extremely common power.

Cool. Will sort that out now.

In his wolf form only.
