★ Notes:

- Human art is greatly preferred over anthro/feral form, but either is fine!

- His eyes are medium/dark brown in human form, but gold in both hound forms.

- His hair is like... if you just. failed to get it cut for a while. kinda just grown out? i know the picrew looks kinda like a karen bob but i promise that is not the case ASDFLGDNKGM faceclaim in collage is more accurate!!

- outfit is NOT strict - it's just the picrew :,) feel free to draw him in any sort of button up (usually partially open), black pants or jeans, also sometimes wears a thin gold cross necklace bc he thinks it's Funny

 "Go Hard" by Kreayshawn

Hellhound bastard / chaotic stupid. Relatively young by immortality standards. Exists in a mortal vessel to carry out the collection of owed souls on earth, but doesn't really give a shit about it. Does take a sort of morbid enjoyment in doing his job, but is overall not particularly invested, and prefers to spend his time causing trouble around town instead. Works at a bowling alley on the days he manages to actually show up for his shift. Absolute simp for his necromancer boyfriend, Taxi, and would sell his soul to the devil for him if he had one. Addicted to classic Lays potato chips and will obliterate a party sized bag of them.

He is intensely loyal (and admittedly quite needy) to those he cares about, but tends to come off as absolutely obnoxious at first. He is painfully sarcastic and tends to ignore social cues even when he recognizes them in favor of cracking jokes or generally just pushing others' buttons. He presents as confident and boisterous, and has trouble backing down or conceding even when confronted. Around those he knows well, he is significantly calmer, even anxious. He is fiercely protective of his loved ones and becomes easily worried if he feels something could be off. Has a tendency to "word vomit" when nervous, and overcompensates for his jittery nature by doing-the-absolute-most.

His hair is a mess, usually falling somewhere between jaw and shoulder depending on how long it's been since he bothered to get a haircut. He's 5'11" in human form, 6'4" in his anthro hound form, and in feral hound form he's just big enough to be uncanny.

In human form, he is able to feel hunger, exhaustion, pain, etc but is not as heavily impacted as an actual human would be - he still needs to sleep, eat, and so on, but can go much longer without (though the mental impact will be just as great). Wounds seem to close up easily or appear to be much less serious than one would expect (ie a stabbing not leading to much blood, ability to survive a gunshot that should be fatal, etc). With grave enough injuries, it is possible for his vessel to be rendered useless, though it is unclear whether he himself will actually die or simply need to "migrate" permanently to another form. Outside of this increased resistance, his human form is otherwise fairly normal, and he does not seem to possess any additional abilities (strength, stamina, etc).

His anthro hound form, however, is much stronger and has a much greater resistance to injury/illness/etc. He appears to be fully immortal in this form, incapable of death even when gravely injured, though he does still feel sensations of pain or exhaustion similarly to his human form. In this form, he retains the borzoi/sighthound type head of his feral form, with long standing ears and medium-long fur. This is his most common form for retrieving souls or being as intimidating as possible.

His feral hound form is essentially just a big-ass dog, and while he is significantly stronger than an ordinary dog, it is overall his weakest form in terms of vulnerability. He mostly uses this form for stealth and speed, as he can travel much quicker and in a much more unassuming manner. Also able to blend into shadows at will when he's in hound form, allowing him to render himself invisible so long as there's a stretch of shadow to travel through. Looks a bit like a mix between Borzoi/sighthound and Malinois, with a sighthound-ish head and the overall stature of a Malinois with a lot more fur (medium-long, wavy).

Shifting between any of these forms causes him a great deal of pain, albeit temporary, usually presenting as sharp pains and aching muscles.
