IC CHARACTERISTICS.

→ PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:

Wolf Form ❅ His native form. Fenrir has the shape of a shaggy black wolf, standing twenty-four feet at the tip of his ears. This is, in fact, quite a bit smaller than how he was born. When he was locked into his cage, he was gargantuan, dwarfing everything around him. But the years of being imprisoned were not kind to him, and as a result his power — and size — have diminished. This was purposefully done, by the gods, to make him weaker when it came time for him to be released by Ragnarök. While it isn't readily apparent, there are signs of emaciation, even after all the time since, underneath his thick fur.
Human Form ❅ Though he could use his magic to take on a variety of other forms, Fenrir most often takes the form of a Midgardian when wanting to 'lie low'. His human form is six foot even (6'0"), appearing as though in his late twenties, with hair as dark as the fur of his native form. For all the magic at his disposal, Fenrir still can't hide the fact of his diminished power; in his human form, this means he usually looks just a tad sickly. He looks paler than he should, with shadows around his eyes, a vague feeling left by the neglect of his cage. His eyes are sky blue, like his wolf eyes, as well. His attire changes depending on where he is, as he has some control over it. But for the most part he favors simple white shirts, dark trousers, and thick boots.

→ DEMEANOR: Quiet. Thoughtful. Moody.
→ ABILITIES:

Ancient ❆ Fenrir is an incredibly old creature in his universe. He has immortality granted by being a child of Loki, and additional longevity granted by Yggdrasil. The only way he can die is when slain by a magical blade. Otherwise, he is immune to aging and cannot die from poisons or disease. When in wolf form, he has the incredible strength you'd expect from such a large creature and tough hide and fur on top of that. Fenrir was prophesied to kill a god, and he has the potential power to do so.

Magic ❆ Though not as powerful as his father, Fenrir has a keen handle on magic from all his years of practice and use. He can use his magic to take on the form of a human or other simple animals, create changes in the weather, purify water, create fire, cure poisons, and from studying his own cage can construct others like it to trap very specific creatures. He can use magic as Loki can — that is to say, mentally, without using runes carved into a surface. More on magic here. He tends to focus on survivalist magic. The more powerful the magic, the more draining it is. But Fenrir has much more ancient power than most to draw on. Like many ancient 'monsters' like him, his magical abilities can be quite impressive.

Knowledge ❆ Fenrir can speak Old Norse, the language of the Aesir, in addition to Norwegian, English, Dwarf, Swedish, Elvish, and German. These are languages picked up in his long lifetime. In both forms, he has a slight Scandinavian accent, hard to pin down; his exact accent is Old Norse, as patterned early on after his father. Reading is one of his favored activities, when he can (along with napping). He has picked up many knowledges along the way about the Nine Realms, and tends to be full of odd facts which come in handy later. Fenrir calls this paying attention, whereas someone else might call it an obsession with trivia.

→ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Good luck figuring this out...
