Pythius Xiuhcoatl

[Pythius Xiuhcoatl]

Sahssisapythiuss (Pythius) Xiuhcoatl Basic Information Race:Dhani Birthday & Age: October 26th, 410 AV Age: 100 Gender: Male  Physical Description Pythius Xiuhcoatl is a short human in comparison to most, he stands at about 5'4, but his Snake form is a Viper, so he is on the taller end in that regard. As a snake he is 8 feet long, and in his Dhani form he is 9 and a half feet tall.  In his snake form, he is mostly jet black on the outside with a faint diamond-like pattern that includes dark and light grey, and he has a stark white underbelly. As a human, he has black hair that always falls in his face and over his eyes, it's about mid-neck length. He has really white skin that you can see his veins through in most light, but blackish lips and fingernails naturally. His eyes are slit like a snake's and are gold in all forms. He has a lithe human body, really thin and barely muscular since his killing method is venom. He has sharp white teeth and a predator-like smile, when he does smile.He has always wanted two lip piercings but could never get them because  they would just fall out in snake form. Over all he is pretty creepy looking, and would make most people uncomfortable being around him, but he is not ugly, some may say that he is pretty easy on the eyes. He has the normal speech affliction of most Dhani; drawing out S's in common launguage, he prefers Snake-tongue. Character Concept Because Pythius is a male in a matriarch society, he already is faced with a disadvantage. He doesnt really fit in, to say the least. He lacks the torturous tendancies of his kin as well as the coldness and predatory instinct. He is compassionate in a world of cruelly-calculating minds that live for the next kill. He doesn't stick to the norm as far as killing his prey and amount that he does because he feels guilt and a sense of wrong that almost none other of his kind share. He also has nothing against outsiders or the other Dhani sub-races, for some reason he never understood the hostility.  Because of his extreeme differences, he is somewhat of a social outcast and his name has become taboo because of his ineptitude to act like a Dhani at most times. He is a sensitive being and is deeply affected and emotionally harmed by the lack of support and understanding of him even in his own family. But regardless of his emotional aptitude, he is still a Dhani and can be overcome with instinct.  He mostly spends time on his own and doesn't like socializing with anyone, he tries to hide his tender nature with a apathetic and spiteful exterior and is often mean to anyone who tries to approach him or completely ignores them. Character History He grew up the youngest of six siblings in the Eyktolian deserts, all of them girls except him. He never knew his father because his mother was not monogamous in her mates and never took on one as a permantant provider, preferring to hunt herself, leaving his eldest sister in charge. Because he was a male, Pythius was teased and picked on by his better-liked sisters. He would usually have to hide from them so they couldn't hurt him or embarass him, which developed is poor social skills and anti-social tendancies. Because he was so different than others of his kind, and couldn't bring in the necissary amount of kill to support a household, he was told early on that he would probably never be taken on as a mate by his own species. Dispite this, he still holds a secret hope to find love someday. Eventually, because he was so widely rejected, even his name became taboo. As soon as he matured enough, he left the nest to persue his own agenda, hoping to find someone that would love him, and a place to be generally accepted.
