REIRA AKABA | WENDIGO | |||||||||||
CURRENT INFORMATION | TRANSFORMATION COMPLETE ● Death — Wendigo are undead, and Reira is no different. The first time he died (which counted for his change total), he simply experienced slow heart failure, passing in his 'sleep' beneath a tree. The second however (which is counted), he was swallowed whole by Hiro while the boy was a faerie--as a result, he soon became crushed under his own unintentional magic, and revived hours later in the fog as a Wendigo again.
● Elongated Fangs — As a Wendigo, Reira's incisors in particular are long and sharp; while all of his teeth leave a mark, his incisors are so large that his mouth has internally formed itself around them. Each one is over an inch long, and they're perfect for holding prey in place after he catches them. ● Clawed, padded hands — While teeth help, Reira's claws are vital for his skills as a hunter--as well as his desire to play. His hands are padded almost like a bear's, with large, thick claws at the end. These claws do not retract--and in fact the quick within them runs right near to the tip, making it difficult to get them any shorter than they already are. Despite this, Reira seems able to handle delicate actions with his hands very easily. ● Antlers — Where many wendigo have antlers bearing at least three points, if not a full rack, Reira's antlers are those of the Pudu deer; single spire growths that only sit a few inches long, these antlers are good for single strikes to the gut, but not much else! They won't be growing any larger either, nor will they ever gain additional points. ● Deer Ears/facial features — While most of his face remains his own, Reira bears a set of large furry deer ears which swivel toward most sounds that catch his attention. His nose is also padded similarly to a deer's now, but most notable are his tear ducts; pudu scent mark using tears, and Reira's ducts have changed accordingly, creating a very distinctive look to his eyes. ● Fur over Body — Aside from his face, as well as his throat, Reira is almost entirely covered in fur. This fur is largely brown, with an underside of cream, but it carries a 'chinchilla effect'. What this means is that much of the fur seems to gradiate, with the brown in particular showing off this effect. A pattern of cream and silver also runs over his arms and back however, blending with the 'fawn spots' he has all over it. This pattern is more obvious in the winter, when he has more fur over his body. ● Long tail, Thick mane — In addition to the thick fur covering him, Reira's hair has also become fur--silvery, with the same chinchilla effect, but far thicker and longer. This fur creates his mane, and it grows as far down as the middle of his back, between his wings and bone spikes. His tail is also incredibly long; longer than he is tall in fact, though it only exceeds this length by a few inches. The tail is fluffiest at the end, and it moves according to his emotions--but more chiefly, aids in balance while climbing, flying, or even running. ● Bone Spikes — While he formerly had an impressive set of them across his back, Reira's wings have since replaced most of them. Now, aside from the overgrowth of spikes from his spine, he also has rather impressive prongs coming out from his shoulders, near the neck; it is almost as if they are making up for his lack of antler points! Eeriely, it resembles a collar of bones. ● Hooved Feet — In addition to restructuring themselves more like a deer's legs, Reira now has feet replaced by hooves--technically standing on his toes now. It means no shoes, and Reira can't say that he minds! ● Golden Eyes — Reira's very eyes have changed colour, a feature more notable than even the slight widening of his irises. The gold, curiously, is the exact same shade that Shun Kurosaki's own eyes took; a brilliant colour that shines in the dark, creating an eerie effect when light hits at the wrong angle. ● Mountain Rune — Reira bears a rather curious set of runes which are difficult to notice; various locations over his body that would have lined up with medical sensors are marked with a circular patch of colour, with all of them connected by lines. In the darkness, if they have been exposed to enough light, they give off a faint glow--so faint that the human eye cannot detect it. ● Wings — Having enjoyed flight as a fairy, Reira requested wings of Tikbalang; as such, his former 'wing-like' bone spikes have been replaced with broad, enormous wings capable of carrying his weight through all forms. These wings resemble those of the goshawk, and allow for easy maneuvering through the woods that Reira so frequents. However, they are largely silver and blue in colour, even bearing spotting along certain parts of the back to match his fur. Alongside all of this, his mountain rune has spread to his wings; each one bears a large 'Eye' that is only ever clear in night. ● Increased Strength — As a monster, Reira's strength has increased significantly; while he certainly cannot face an adult monster on his own, he could easily battle with the average human, or even as many as four to five depending on their size and weight! At the least, he can lift a car (if he tries at any rate). ● Heightened Senses — Reira's senses have been improved across the board for the most part thanks to being a wendigo; scent, hearing, and even taste (though the latter just means he prefers meaty dishes). The best of all however are his eyes; sensitive to the slightest movement in the dark, he may not be able to see especially far, but he can certainly see everything around him in clearer detail than most any other. ● Paralyzing Stare — Wendigo have a unique ability, one which Reira has as well. By making eye contact, he uncontrollably instills a great amount of fear in the other until he blinks, locking the victim in place with cold terror. ● Immunity to Cold — Being corpses covered in fur, it isn't surprising that Reira is immune to the cold. While the cold brings no ill effects to him however, he still dislikes it quite a bit ('warm' is nice, 'cold' is 'empty'), which prompts him to seek the warmth out long before the cold. ● Icy Touch — An ability that Reira very rarely exhibits, his Icy Touch manifests largely in his feet and in his bite; aside from causing frostbite in a wound if he holds a bite for too long, ice also comes from beneath his feet if he stands still for a certain period of time. It also trails behind him while he runs, though this ability seems to only trigger while he is running. ● Hunger Cravings — Unlike most monsters, a hunger for human flesh is not the only hunger Reira experiences. While he requires the meat all the same, eating it at least twice a month, he in fact craves food constantly--a craving that can never be sated, in fact. For the most part, he eats other meats when he can, though he keeps loose record of portions and timing so that his starvation does not end up bloating him. ● Sunlight Weakness — While Reira's eyes are highly tuned to the darkness, it brings an incredible drawback with the sun; anything brighter than the light of dawn and dusk could potentially blind him, and strong streetlights are even painful to stare at. To counter this, Reira wears goggles, which allows him to wander about during the morning and afternoon hours; since they cannot prevent the searing pain of High Noon however, he tends to sleep through that period of time, also sleeping through the latest hours of the night. He is thus considered crepuscular. ● Silver & Fire Weakness — Wendigo are weak to silver much like weres are, but without blood to carry toxins along, the burning sensation it brings is far stronger. Prolonged contact causes first a rash, and then a serious rot that cannot be easily healed thanks to being undead! Fire however, is far worse; being too close leaves effects similar to a sunburn, and if Reira were to be set aflame, he could burn to ashes within mere moments! ● Pudu Deer Form — Matching the antlers upon his head, Reira is able to take the form of a tiny Pudu fawn--a creature no larger than a kitten. This deer has been nicknamed the 'Andean Mountain Goat' however; so not only is Reira able to run at remarkable speed like this, but he can climb in places where flying is otherwise impossible, just like when he's in normal form. His clothes are not lost when taking this form either, which makes switching shapes far easier now. While in this form, his eye-spots are still present on the wings, but his rune shifts to instead also show an eye similar to that of 'CC One-Eyed Past Eye' over his thigh. ● Fog Form — In stark contrast to his normal form, Reira's rarely seen Fog Form (as his alliance with the 4th God makes this an optional change) is nigh demonic. His mane thickens to the point where it could rival a lion's, and his tail gains a matching silver tip, with bone spikes even creating a sharp spur within it. The spikes on his back become wild and untamed, and come out from even his wings, which still manage to retain flight capability. The weight however forces him to slouch; so even while he gains a foot in height and an added point to his antlers, he still seems to stand at the same height as before. What stands out most however, is his face and pattern. His face itself extends into a full deer snout, with his teeth becoming too large for his mouth to remain closed. Instead of the playful mosaic he normally carries for patterning, his fur goes black and white over the face and middle, resembling a skeleton--a look that naturally draws the eye to his own in the fog, guaranteeing the paralyzing stare has some effect. ● Fourth-Alterations — As a loyal follower of the Fourth God, Elias attempted to try to remove the multitude of problems with Reira's Fog Form in addition to weakening its influence; he unfortunately had to 'trade off' as a result. While Reira does not take Fog Form as a requirement, he now takes it as he approaches a Berserk Point in his hunger, and the form itself has changed significantly; bearing metal plates and cogs to make his movement easier, as well as a ticking clock over where a once beating heart would have been. ● Cybernetic Appearance — As a symbol of his alliance to the 4th God, Reira's runes now resemble the very cables and sensors they represented; these cables are constantly aglow with a neon effect, though his fur tends to dampen the intensity of them. ● 4th Granted Ability (Minor): Vocal Mimicry — One of the abilities granted to Reira as a follower is the ability to mimic other voices, twisting sounds he has heard into new phrases. The downside is that a static-like effect occasionally comes over the voice, revealing it to be a possible false lure. ● 4th Granted Ability (Standard): Frost-Like — A powerful ability, Reira is able to take the form of an icy wind, and even move about while doing so; however, he cannot take things with him, and worst of all, the combined energy it takes to perform this spell along with the immediate emptying of his stomach leave him on the brink of a Hunger Rage; if he does not eat within 24 hours of using this ability, he will enter a Berserk State. Additionally, he cannot re-use the ability until he has eaten. ● Adept Ability: Zombie Creation — Having ritualistically achieved Adept Status before the God's Reform of their gifts, Reira also has the ability to take a bite out of a freshly killed corpse and command it until the sun rises. This gives a total limit of approximately six hours, and while he does not have to kill the body himself, he has yet to use this ability. When time runs out, he feels impressively hungry. | | ![]() ☠ death countdeaths: 2 | CHANGES TIMELINE 1st changeHeart stops, now needs Flesh | June 28 2015
