Character Name: Harriet Walters
Character Species: Human
Appearance: Short, dark brown hair, short enough to easily pass over her small shoulders hangs loosely from her head. Herr bangs are just an inch and a half shorter than the rest, framing her defined but soft face. She keeps it rather straight, but naturally it is lightly curly, and frizzy enough to get her cussing it out, which frankly doesn't take much.
A low v-cut collar stops just before slowing cleavage. Her blouse is a plain patterned cotton, with a mostly dark blue appearance. Over that Harriet sports a tight, dark purple jacket, the neckline resting a little lower than that of her blouse. A wide belt, with a shiny grey buckle further highlights her curves.
Hugging her hips is a pair of tight jeans that flare out starting gradually at her knees, but only easily noticeable about three quarters down her shin, hanging over her shoes. The jeans are a deep blue, with small marks, a thin and short mark from bleach, a drip stain from paint, and a couple of rips from wear and use. Her shoes resemble a mary jane with a thick 1" heel.
Talents, skills, knowledge, and possible powers: She knows how to get her way, with manipulation if she must, but she prefers to be much more blunt. She took trombone lessons from when she was 5 until her senior year of high school. She has 29 years of formal schooling and life experience.
Personality: Harriet is quick to react, and cares little for any other options or judgments. She does consider consequences, but her actions rarely reflect this.
History: Harriet grew up in a house as the only child with only her father. She lived in a middle-class suburb, went to a fairly good school district, and lived in a 3 bedroom house with the third bedroom as her playroom.
In high school her blunt and brass nature didn't fit very well. As a result she found meaning in things other than popularity and pop culture. She chose her own books to read, music to listen to, and what grades were appropriate in what classes. She also learned to ignore anything she cared to, and perfected her manipulative skills.
After she graduated, she continued to college where she received a BS in Business Management. She met her husband through work, they bought a house in a nice neighborhood.
When the the worlds began to combined, her husband was on a business trip and she has been unable to contact him.
Other: Likes knives. She created a holster to strap an oddly shaped dagger to her right forearm, something she normally waits until she leaves the house to wear.

Character Name: Tederich Raign
Character Species: Shapeshifter (island leopard)
Appearance: HumanTederich stands at a good six foot one (6'1"), making him fairly tall. His build is fairly slender with only slight glimpses of muscle here and there. His arms aren't built as if he attends a gym religiously, but they do look nice in a sleeveless shirt. His chest and abs lack that muscular definition most women crave, but that's not saying he's flabby, either. He just doesn't spend too much time working on toning himself. By far, his legs are the strongest and most defined muscles he possesses. All though a day at the gym isn't his idea of fun, he does spend plenty of time training himself. Being a shapeshifter, he is quite agile in his human form. To keep himself limber he does a lot of running and takes part in plenty of strenuous activities.
His hair is a sandy brown with streaks of a darker saddle brown scattered throughout. It flows thin and straight, and reaches the back of his knees when allowed to spill freely down his back. Most of the time he keeps it tied back in a tight pony tail. With it put up, it holds up just a few inches above his knees. Despite the length of his hair, his face helps keep him looking very masculine. His nose is a bit broad and takes the attention off his thin lips. There is a foreign shade to his skin, Hispanic of some sort, even though he has no Latin blood. All of his ancestors are of Germanic decent, and it shows in his rough accent. The sienna color of his eyes compliments his hair, and is his most noticeable feature. He spent too much time in his leopard form, and now cannot fully shift his eyes back to human. They are very catlike, and almost unnerving if one does not know what they're looking at. The strong definition of his chin finishes off his very male face.
Due to his extreme lifestyle, Tederich bares many scars all across his body. They are most prominent on his chest and arms. The most noticeable scars are the two on his wrist that make it look as if he was bound tightly. Generally he can heal wounds before they scar, but that is only if he shifts immediately after receiving the injury. If he doesn't shift within three days then scars may result.
LeopardThe average island(or clouded) leopard only stands a mere two to three feet (2-3 ft) from the ground to their shoulders. However, Tederich outdoes that by a lot. In his leopard form he stands a good three and one half feet (3 1/2 ft) at his shoulders. His eyes are the same as they are in his human form, a nice shade of sienna that sparkle when the sunlight hits them just right. He can be recognized by the tan fur dotted in large brown spots with black edgings around them. There is one large spot around his left eye. The spot trails from his eye to the end of his snout and bleeds into the black of his nose. If the extra large leopard doesn't give it away, there are two bald rings of skin around each of his forepaws where his scars are as a human.
Talents, skills, knowledge, and possible powers:He can shift, at will, into an island leopard. However, it hurts due to the stretching of muscles and breaking of bones. Since it is so painful both ways, after he shifts back into his human form he requires recovery time. This can last anywhere from four to eight hours depending on how long he was shifted and if he sustained any damage. Shifting moves everything back to where it was before the shift, he can heal some injuries by shifting. There is a time limit on this, though. After three days, if he doesn't shift more serious wounds will scar permanently. Not all wounds heal from shifting. Chances are he wouldn't be able to heal his throat being torn out or any other life threatening affliction. His body can withstand quite a beating, though. Falling from higher altitudes is not as dangerous as it would be to a human. He is less likely to break a bone than most others, and he heals faster even if he hasn't shifted. It's not a huge difference in the speeds, but something that would take a week to heal would only take him three days. Tederich is also more agile, and can run a bit faster than the average human.
During his running he is quite observant. He is quite knowledgeable about the lands around him, or at least he was. Climates are something he knows well, and because of it he made a better adjustment to the merge than some others did. He knows what sort of critters thrive in certain environments, and he knows how to avoid and/or dispose of quite a few of them.
Personality:Tederich can be aggressive and fairly strong willed. He prefers to put up a fight and likes to get one in return. People who can pose a challenge for him are usually the best company. Competition is something he enjoys, and he does what he can to create a competitive environment. Losing is not one of strong suits, and he is not likely to give up without a fight. Never in his life has he admitted defeat. Generally he just works his way around the loss. He pretends like it never happened, or he cheats his way into winning. No one ever claimed him to be an honest man, and he's never said it.
When it comes to leading it's a habit of his to sit back and let someone else take control, but he can take the lead if need be. He tends to argue a bit, but rarely takes anything too seriously. However, despite his semi-carefree demeanor, he can be controlling and hard to dominate. He'll press the restrictions set on him as far as they'll go. Rules and limits are simply obstacles to be explored and overcome to him. Tederich has little patience for a stubborn boundary. He will do all he can to move passed anything in his way as soon as possible. This includes, but is not limited to, deception and even violence.
History:Tederich grew up as the third oldest child in a group of seven. All were born of both the same mother and father. His family lived in an out of the way village that consisted of only six families, a doctor, one teacher, and a storekeeper. Still, even though they are a small community, they do fairly well off. Their major export and mode of living is cotton. They spent most of their time tending to the crops. Even the children helped out. There were a few livestock that needed looking after, and the older children were charged with that. So, when he turned sixteen, it only made sense that Tederich be sent with the local caravan off to trade in the nearest city. It was only supposed to be a short trip, and no one suspected anything dangerous. Everything went just as uneventful as planned. In fact, it went so well that later he was put in charge of the caravan. He was twenty at the time.
Every time he took a trip into the city, no matter what city it was, he always managed to find himself a couple of people to have a bit of "fun" with. He frequented some pretty hardcore clubs, and managed scarring himself quite often. The scars on his wrist were a result of being bound on one of his nights out. Once his dirty little secret was discovered he lost a great deal of respect from the villagers. Some avoided him completely because of it. If it wasn't for the fact that he knew almost nothing but farming, he probably would have moved into a surrounding city and settled down. However, not every villager was as closed minded. The two men that traveled with him became close to him. They were almost inseparable, and they were the best friends any man could ever ask for.
Years later and just days after the discovery of the first bridge, on one of his usual trips to the city, Tederich and his two companions ran across a wild cat. It seemed feral, and they did their best to avoid it, but it followed them. When the stopped for the night they took the proper precautions, even going so far as lighting a ring of fire around their camp to keep the beast out. It managed to snuff out the fire while Tederich and one of the other men slept. The cat killed the man who sat on watch and snuck into the tent. Before it got in, though, both Tederich and his friend were woken by the noise. They both managed to subdue the creature and kill it, but not both of them sustained quite a bit of damage. This attack left both men scarred, but with Tederich's risque lifestyle, it really didn't make a difference for him.
As soon as the sun rose both men turned back to the village, managing to avoid any other danger. The villagers were angered by their return before trading the goods, but the boys promised to head out the following day. Sadly, that did not happen. Tederich and his friend began exhibiting some fairly abnormal symtoms, such as fevers and growing extra hair. Before the day was over both men took the shape of the leopard that had attacked them. Out of fear, his friend fled from the village. Fearing the disease was contagious, the villagers chased Tederich out as well. Tederich, at the age of twenty-nine(29) has been traveling on his own for about two weeks know. He is unsure where his friend has gone, but is hoping he is doing as well as he is.
Other:Pain is an obsession of Tederich's. He's a masochist of sorts; enjoying to stretch his own physical limitations. It makes him stronger in his own eyes. As mentioned earlier, boundaries mean little to him. Pain is merely a limitation that can, and will, be overcome.
