» OCCUPATION: Local cryptid
[attr="class","body"]
Kyo is a fiercely independent creature, stubborn in his pursuits. He just wants to do what he wants, and has little regard for authority or what's right... whatever amuses him, or his loved ones, that's what he'll do. One might even say that he's completely self-serving. He can be tricked into doing things he's otherwise reluctant to do– by either bribery, flattery, curiosity or challenge– but mostly he just does whatever he wants.
Thankfully, he’s generally mischievous, playful, but otherwise quite harmless.
Be careful not to incense him, however, for he's a sore loser, prone to either sulk or retaliate in the face of defeat. Kyo wears his heart on his sleeve, and is similarly charmed by kindness, earnest praise, and generally being cared for. He's always had to care for himself (as far as he knows), so having someone look-out for him is somewhat novel. The now-human facet of his mind craves that sort of intimacy. So it is entirely possible that, if someone shows genuine concern for him, he may become fiercely and unflinchingly loyal to them.
Lastly, depending on the recency of his last meal is a huge determining factor for how genial he is. He's far more waspish and violent when hungry, but sleepy and complacent when he's recently fed.

» HEIGHT:
Natural, up to 12' // Human, 5'3"
» WEIGHT:
Natural, 500 lbs. // Human, barely 120 lbs.
» EYE COLOR:
Natural, glowing white // Human, hazel.
» HAIR COLOR:
Natural, n/a. // Human, ginger.
» SKIN COLOR:
Natural, teal to black like the ocean. // Human, freckled.
» FACE CLAIM NAME: Yata Misaki (for now)
» FACE CLAIM SERIES: Project K
Kyo’s natural form is terrifying to behold, for there’s really nothing humanoid about it. He’s a sentient mass of goo, generally dome-shaped 6’ in diameter and 6’ tall. Its surface roils like sea-water, scintillating teal in the sunlight but black in the darkness. Multitudinous glowing white eyes line its back without rhyme or reason, and a great growing maw sometimes stretches on one side of its body. To the touch, it is smooth and oily like petroleum jelly, and can have variable tension based-on how Kyo flexes his body.
His natural form can stretch and contort with great ease, extending up to 12’ high. Sometimes it will sprout tendrils to grasp smaller objects,
Its human form (currently the only one it has access to) is a small, underfed lad with a mess of red hair that often falls in his hazel eyes. Kyo knows very little about this form, except that he found it in the woods with a gaping, red wound in its chest (which Kyo has since healed-up while using the boy’s visage).His human form has a good many scars all over its body, mostly in the arm and torso area, but some on the legs, too.
Kyo’s never been a person before, so he does things that people don’t often do. He climbs things and sits on things that he shouldn’t, stands too close and says things that are mean, and is loud when it isn’t appropriate. But with time, hopefully he’ll learn.
When he’s sleepy, or hungry, his forms start to lose their credibility– he may start to sprout more eyes, or leak slime from his orifices, or move in ways that most things shouldn’t.

[attr="class","body"]
The slime knows nothing of where it came from, of who it was before it found the human in the forest. One moment, the world was dark– and the next, it was lying prone on the forest floor, looking at the stars strung like fishing nets over the canopy of the pine trees.
Nothing comes from nowhere, though. The slime was born in a hospital, to a mother that was fully expecting a human child. When she got an odious, black puddle instead, she and the doctors in attendance were mortified. They reached for it– but, sensing danger, the slime escaped down a drain in the floor, and escaped to the world beyond.
It made its way into the wilds, subsisting off of various wild animals. Once it devoured an animal, it gleaned knowledge from it and could even become it, allowing it to hunt more effectively. For years– perhaps even decades– the slime existed as an animal, wanting nothing more than a full belly and a warm place to sleep.
It wasn’t happy, but it wasn’t sad either. It just was.
But then, it ate a human, and suddenly the world was brought into a much sharper focus.
There were things the slime understood intuitively– this body it masqueraded in was not its actual body, but one that it had found, and subsequently eaten. This body had been dying before the slime had found it, too weak to move and gushing blood from a wound on its chest– the slime had simply finished the job, not wanting to waste an easy meal.
When the slime ate the human, it gained the human’s sentience. At that moment, it was “born”, so to speak. There are visions of things beyond the woods– memories of a world yet to be seen– and of a family. The slime had never had a family. But surely, this human’s family missed it– and so, it decided that it would venture into the world to find the human’s family. Under that ruse, it could learn about the world beyond.

QUIRK NAME: Voracious Ooze
QUIRK RANK: C-
QUIRK TYPE: Mutation
QUIRK DESCRIPTION: Kyo’s slimy body, while alluring from the outside, is capable of a grisly feat. When Kyo ingests another living creature, the enzymes within its slimy shell will digest and analyze the tissue. Once reduced to nothing but bones, Kyo can then use the genetic information to transform into the aforementioned creature.
There are two types of information Kyo gleans from the animal that it’s eaten– its appearance, and its behavior. This allows Kyo to make a more convincing double, and allows it to blend-in until it can hunt and eat again. When it comes to mimicking humans, Kyo can even perceive some habits and routines of theirs, as well as some poignant memories. Although these do fade with time.
Kyo currently possesses a number of animal forms, predominantly wild animals from the woods in the western part of the Tokyo province, as well as a few dogs and a few cats. He only has one human form, though.
QUIRK DRAWBACKS:Firstly, the digestion process is slow– if Kyo eats someone, it usually takes 5-10 minutes (2-4 rounds of posts) before the form is accessible to them. While he’s digesting, Kyo remains still to conserve energy and prevent its target from falling-out. This is also the window during which a person can escape from them, as Kyo always swallows its prey whole. As long as a person can hold their breath for that long, they can fight their way out. Kyo can only digest things that have a Constitution lower than their Strength. Otherwise, its enzymes just feel like the carbonation in a soda… or at worst, peroxide against a fresh wound.
Another issue is that forms “fade” over time. Once the bones of a form are fully dissolved, any color the form possessed will fade to a pale grayish-black, making it starkly different from the original form. This process takes anywhere from three to six months. As such, Kyo’s disguises are ill-suited for long-term cons.
Kyo can only pilot one form at a time, as he only has one consciousness. His consciousness is contained within a small, crystallized brain, which is about the size of a walnut. It seems to dwell in the base of his natural form’s mouth, creating an ambient glow. If the brain is crushed, he’ll die… but he’s otherwise got no innards or parts that can sustain damage. Whenever he transforms, he’s still just goo– he’s just mimicking the bodily systems that other creatures have.
Fire will cause the goo to dissipate rapidly, and it causes Kyo great pain. If a form is more massive than the amount of slime Kyo possesses, he won’t be able to take it. So, in dire situations, he may be stuck as a cat or a bird until he can eat again and acquire more mass.
Droning noises– either very high-pitched or very low-pitched– are also quite uncomfortable for Kyo. They’ll make his form ripple, and ultimately slip altogether. He’ll be stuck as a slime, immobilized, until the sound stops.
On the outside, his slime is totally harmless, and lacks the interpretive qualities that the enzymes within have.

SKILL NAME: Killer Instinct
SKILL RANK: C
SKILL DESCRIPTION: Kyo has a predator's understanding of how to take down prey, and he does so with grace and efficiency regardless of form. This gives him an edge in hand-to-hand combat, since such conflicts come as second nature to him. He doesn't, however, understand fighting without the intent to kill (and ultimately eat).
