[Picture one]
Personality: Cunning, calm, and curious. He has no moral qualms about using people, but will occaisonally befriend someone. At times he can seem down right cruel and inhumane, at others a compassionate man.
Sexuality: Hetero
Strengths:
-He is intelligent (More specifically a good memory and puzzle solving skills)
-He is good at lying, very convincing (Things like keeping a straight face. Whether or not his story adds up is another thing entirely)
-A knowledge of medicine, herbs, the human body, etc. Simply put, he's a trained Doctor and one of the wilds.
-The venom of his snake form and his ability to change into it. He has a masterful control of it, as he prefers that form.
-He can talk in his snake form (Poorly)
Weaknesses:
-He is rather weak and dosn't have much muscle, so he would be out matched in a fight
-He has Schizophrenia, and drinks alchool to cope with it. For this reason he keeps a small bottle on hand at all times. If he has a fit and he's not within reach of booze, he loses it.
-It takes energy to change from animal to human, so he is usually quite tired after it. Changing from Human to Animal takes little effort. This is mainly due to the fact that a snake is much smaller than a human and thus requires less energy to manage, so the energy required to change would be excess otherwise.
-Due to the fact that his thermal vision is unnatural (The breed of snake he changes into doesn't actually have it), it puts heavy strain on his eyes & mind. If used for too long it can cause a fit (See Schizophrenia above)

History: Sionn grew up in an orphanage in Stalwart from a very young age, never meeting his parents. He got along with the children there, but would often seclude himself to his chambers when he had the chance. One of the Matrons had taught him how to read, and this he cherished. Whenever Sionn had the chance he would read various books, usually pertaining to human anatomy.
The thing was, is that Sionn had a strange hobby of observing people. He found them intriguing. How the most compassionate of men would dispose of their family for a few shiney coins, why two people who are infatuated with eachother constantly fight and yell, and of course, the inner workings of the body.
When Sionn moved on to become a doctor's apprentice, his days of seclusion came to an end. It wasn't as if he had gone from being a timid creature to a wild raving man, but rather he didn't have the time to read anymore. He missed this, but the personal interactions he had with those he treated made it worth it.
One in particular, was Clarise. She had no real outstanding features, so nobody really knew what it was, but Sionn was absolutely crazy about her. Luckily for him, she felt the same, and when he was 25, they were married. This blissful time brought happiness for the two of them, and everyone who went their way. Sionn was always smiling, great with kids, and brought in great income for the office. Clarise, who decided to work as his pharmacist, kept the town lively and healthy with her day to day life. The two of them never knew a moments sadness and shared their love with all.
Until Clarise died that is.
She had died suddenly late one night with a terrifying shriek. When the townsfolk arrived, she was sprawled out with a look of horror in the middle of the kitchen floor. The old doctor who originally took in Sionn couldn't even tell the cause, only that there were no visible wounds on her. Her funeral took place the next day.
Sionn did not attend.
