Life started out rather simple indeed. Born somewhere on Mount Rainier around the mid 1800s, Tyron came to be and knew nothing but the volcano and his clutch sister. Their parents were nowhere to be found, left there to fend for themselves; if that was normal for their species or not, Tyron knew not, but it didn't much matter at the time. He'd formed rather close bonds with his sister and neither sibling needed much else other than the warmth of their home, and each other for company.

Together, they hunted, and eventually grew curious enough to descend the mountain and into the surrounding areas. Not much opposed the siblings, and when it did, they always had the option of retreating back up the mountain.

As they grew, so too grew the power they held over the volcano itself, and his sister specially, grew to have a harsher temper, and a much more violent attitude towards life in general than he himself did. Not that he was lacking in the violence department, mind you; he had little qualm for human life back then, viewed as little more than snacks if they ventured too close, easily disregarded idiots, who dared to build settlements and villages near their fiery mountain. Still, Tyron wasn't nearly as bothered as his sister was, content to remain to the side unless someone literally poked him into action.

Eventually unhappy with his sister's course of action, the siblings parted way, and Tyron withdrew from the volcano he'd known as home for so long. Unfortunately... life alone was not nearly as easy as it'd been with his sibling, and the lack of a good place to hide like the mountain had been cause for problems.

☆☆☆

Perhaps it was just bad luck, or perhaps it was being cocky, or maybe even perhaps a lack of back up, looking to his right in a tight spot, expecting his sister to be there to have his back and finding... no one. Whatever the cause, Tyron eventually ran afoul, and was injured severely enough that he was rather sure that would be the end of him. He was found and rescued by a human woman, who apparently saw an injured salamander, and whose response was "clearly a puppy", taking him in, cleaning him up and nursing him back to health.

The initial meeting was rough; when Tyron eventually came back into consciousness, and noticed the woman leaning over him, he went into a frenzy, burning down her table, and almost setting fire to the cottage itself. He was eventually calmed down, and though the woman seemed to know she had a creature not entirely normal on her hands, still kept him, nursing him until he was at full health.

At which point he'd had the option to leave but simply... stayed. Tyron found he'd missed the warmth of another body close by, and had not enjoyed his time alone in the wilderness. The lady did not ask much of him anyways, and thus did the therian revise his thoughts and ideas on humans, over the many years he spent as what amounted to that woman's personal lap dog. Those were easy years. Simple years, really, and though his power diminished over a lack of hunting, Tyron didn't much care. It's not like he was putting said power to much use anyways, and the love and attention he was receiving was worth it anyways.

Unfortunately, the woman's life eventually came at an end, and Tyron was forced to move on with his life, with a different outlook on it.

☆☆☆

He eventually mastered how to shift into human form, and settled down in Olympia. He found out he was a rather adept hand when it came to numbers and logical puzzles, and made his way through life using that as a key forte. Eventually, when it was obvious he was not really aging at the time and rate he should be, he'd move on to another place, eventually ending up in Misty Mines, where he's been living for a year or two. He's set himself up as an accountant, and happily runs numbers for others, or people's businesses.

☆☆☆

If you need something done and done right, Tyron's your man. He's relentless and tends to be efficient and precise in what he does. He works miracles with numbers and can organize people's messes like no one's business. The fact he puts so much effort into his work though, means that he's not all that willing to dish out unless someone pays him though. Favors are not easy to come by and he seems to go by a Tit for Tat sort of style. If you want him to do something... you better be prepared to properly dish out.

He has no trouble with computers, technology in general and is at home when presented with logic problems that often stump others. On the other hand though, common sense is... harder to grasp. He's not the wisest of people, and can and will do something stupid to sate his curiosity.

Having lived a long time has given Tyron enough experience to allow for adaptability. He's learned that the human world is constantly changing and that he too must change with it if he wishes to survive. As such, he has little problem with moving, leaving one place for another, even if it means leaving the people behind too. He's never really set roots anywhere or with anyone other than the one time, so while he has the ability to do so, no one has put their claws in him as of yet.

Tyron just wants to have a good time. He's a flirt, he'll hit on you, your friend, your mother, your father, that rock over there, everyone. Once work is over with and he's no longer on the clock, anyone and everything is fair game. He doesn't mind if you just want a quick roll in the hay, or even if you just want to fool around outside; he's game. Granted, this has the unfortunate implication that if you want something else out of him, you're likely going to have to work to get him invested because it simply does not compute. Unfortunately it doesn't quite end at flirtatious. He wants to go all the way. As many times as you want.

While it'd be nice to blame everything on his hair trigger temper... it's also probably worth noting that Tyron is just dramatic. He takes offense with ease and will make a show out of it. He's flamboyant, overly dramatic and has the finesse of a 5 year old child when wronged and will let you know. Loudly. Obnoxiously.

ABILITIES & FORMS ☆LARGE SALAMADER - Tyron's natural form is that of a salamander, larger than average (think medium dog sized), probably enough to arch a brow upon sight, but not enough that it'd raise concern. His skin looks black with orange and red markings, and could easily be mistaken for a completely normal wild animal, size not withstanding.

☆FIRE PROOF - Able to not only withstand flames, but sit in them and bask. Has the ability to swim in lava, and is most comfortable within warmer environments. This, unfortunately, has the downside that winter leaves him sluggish, irritable, and mostly bad company due to drowsiness and weakness. Has been known to spend long stretches of times when it rains or is very cold outside, basking in true form, in his fireplace. Despises water and rain, can withstand it to clean up, etc, but isn't fond of water in the least. Can and will get huffy when wet.

☆FIRE MANIPULATION - Able to produce small quantities of fire in human form, and then manipulate them. He can light a cigarette, or perhaps spark the fire to light an outdoor campsite, etc, but he's unable to go much further while in human form. If attacked with fire, he's able to 'bend' the direction of the flames. The ability is amplified in normal form, where he's able to breathe fire, and under duress, able to spit globs of lava.

☆HOT, BABY, HOT - Can elevate the temperature around himself, or in a container if he's standing near it. He's... visibly hot to the touch, even in human form, almost seemingly feverish to other people. Ability amplified when in salamander form, where he's able to make his body burn surfaces that touch him; if he does not wish to be held, you are not going to be able to without suffering extreme burns. If he's been basking in flames, could melt his way through stone and metal.

PETS None. He's the pet. Please pet him.

TIMELINE

HOBBIES / INTERESTS

HEADCANONS

NOTES ☆ Despite his form being amphibian in nature, can and will purr in some situations (don't call it that - it's a soft growl, not a purr).

☆ Has a temper on him, and very little patience. Burns hot, but tends to also burn through the ire rather fast, and can be easily calmed down under some circumstances. Has a very.... act first, think later sort of impetuous personality; having a high intelligence score does not mean his wisdom is high.

☆ Chaotic Good in nature. Emphasis on the chaotic though.

☆ Does not eat human flesh, or drink human blood, but does hunt animals from time to time. Likely not nearly as often as he should, but he does consume animal meat. Would likely never eat human flesh, or blood unless he could ascertain it did not kill or harm someone. As such, is not nearly as powerful as he could be, and often suffers more during the winter months than he should if he were taking better care of himself.

☆ Has an extremely sweet tooth, and can be won over with sweets, chief amongst them cinnamon sticks or any cinnamon treat. Likes to burn up said sticks in natural form.

☆ Likes to be held. Likes human contact in general. A left over from when he spent so many years as what amounts to an old woman's lap dog (salamander?). Likes to be touched, pet, have his hair scratched; yes it also translates into his human form, but won't let just anyone do this.

☆ Winter season has him feeling weakened and grumpy, almost lethargic, unless he's basked inside a fire. Similarly hates rain, and will refuse to go out when it's pouring. It doesn't hurt him, but it isn't comfortable, and he can't swim in water whatsoever.

☆ A fan of one night stands. Has no problem with sleeping around, but treats each partner fairly. Has no problem with repeats, mind you. He's just, in general, a fan of sex, and has very little issues with gender or norms. Despite that, he does not like cheating, and does not react well if he finds out he's being used to cheat on someone.

☆ Intelligent. Good with numbers. (Does not translate to having a terrible lot of common sense though.)
