INFORMATION

"-"

A son to a human mother and a monster father, Jonathan is a late bloomer who has spent all his life as a human living among them. However, as he’s going through a critical time in his development that may possibly lead to him finally gaining his monster form, he was moved to school for monsters. Unfortunately he still smells like a human, and he’s constantly forced to stay on his toes among the monsters that see humans as nothing more than a tasty meal. He’s put in the same room as one of the school prefects, Claude, but unknown to Jonathan his roommate is exactly the type of monster who might as well turn out to be the one to eat him…

Except he doesn’t, because the two end up bonding together, becoming friends and a bit more than that as well. Furthermore, Jonathan eventually ends up gaining his monster form of a pantheon, a deer fox. He’s doing his best to learn to the habits of his own kind, but the human ideals and ways of behaving are very strongly rooted within him, and it’s sometimes very hard - even when Claude offers to help him learn the ropes.

This Jonathan is almost identical to his canon self personality wise: he’s just as kind, impulsive and adventurous as his other self is, and has a strong sense of right and wrong, with the unfortunate habit of letting his curiosity get the better of him.

Appearance

Jonathan is initially stuck to his human form perfectly identical to his canon self, but eventually gains his monster form as well. He’s still learning, but he’s technically able to shift between the two forms freely and even mix and match both appearances to his liking - he just hasn’t mastered the art of it quite yet.

In his pantheon form he resembles a satyr with hooved feet covered in fur, which extends to his waist. His stomach and part of his arms and chest are bare, but he has brown and floofy neck fur and furry, padded paws. He also has a long fox tail and has glowing star-shaped patterns on his fur, mainly centering on his back and tail. Jonathan also has animal-like ears where human ears normally reside, and he has a pair of small antlers growing out of his head and decorated with jewels. He’s still young though, and his antlers are going to grow considerably larger as he gets older.
Story

Born in the demon realm but raised among humans, Jonathan is the oldest son of a pantheon father and a human mother. Only ever in his human form, his parents weren’t sure whether he’d gain a form similar to his father’s as he got older or if he’d remain human, and as such the two settled to live among people. Jonathan grew up aware of his monster heritage, but got socialized just like any human boy would. It was only when he hit puberty that his parents got concerned, and decided to enroll him into a school for monsters in case he’d finally start turning into a monster as well.

Unfortunately the scent of a human still remained, and Jonathan was placed together with one of the prefects, Claude, with the assumption he’d be safe with him. However, as Claude himself was slowly awakening to the carnivorous tendencies from his mother’s side, the chimera initially tried to eat Jonathan - but ended up changing his plans as the two started bonding and became friends, eventually even starting to date.

At the end of his 8th grade Jonathan finally gained his monster form, and would then on start learning to the habits of monsters and get used to his changed body.

Trivia

  • He considers the human form something extremely dear to him, and likes taking it whenever he’s out of the public. He’s also much more knowledgeable about humans compared to his monster peers as a direct result of living as one among humans.

  • Once he awakens to his pantheon blood his diet changes slightly, and he becomes capable of ingesting raw meat. Although he’s an omnivore as a result of being a creature that mixes a herbivore and a carnivore, he’s still feeling weird about eating meat raw and feels squeamish about the idea of hunting to kill and eating on the spot.

  • Despite the fact he has human skin showing, he doesn’t seem to feel cold even when he’s lying in snow.

  • Likes digging things and comes across as very playful when he becomes a pantheon, although the change is somewhat gradual.

  • Can use some basic earth-based magic

  • Turns white during the winter and his fur also becomes thicker and fluffier.

  • Loves it when people scratch behind his ears.

  • Feels weird not wearing pants, but his fur is so thick there is no point wearing pants.

  • Is usually the one who shears Claude’s wool.
