Hunt Michael

Appearance:

Michael’s face becomes more pointed and angular, his teeth become sharper particularly when it comes to his canines making them look like fangs. A mauve liquid drips from them when he is hunting or when he is focusing. Michael can lick it up with no problem, but for anyone else it is deadly.

His eyes are brown and narrowed, his pupils are black slits, and the whites of his eyes are amber. They are obscured by his high cheekbones which give him a more serpentine look.

His pale skin is cold to the touch, he doesn’t like to be too warm, being most comfortable in cooler temperatures. It’s oddly smooth, slippery, and wet, meaning he doesn’t tend to have any friction alongside others.

His hair is a bright golden colour, it has brightened exponentially since he became closer to the hunt. His curls are entwined with copper and red, as if his locks are bright like a poisonous animal.

Abilities:

Michael omits a venom from his teeth and nails which elongate into claws when his abilities grow stronger. It’s a mauve colour, and if someone else touches it it burns their skin. If it enters the blood stream or someone drinks it then it causes their heart to pump far too much blood into their body. It keeps going until their lungs fill with blood or their heart gives in.

Michael sees things in ultraviolet light and in more frames per second meaning he can move terrifyingly quickly.

His body is extremely long and bendy, his bones act as if they are not completely connected meaning his body is like a snakes or as if it is made of rubber. It means he can dodge very easily as well as suffocate people with his body like an anaconda or pounce on top of them to sink his teeth into their neck.

He can unhinge his jaw, making it so huge he can swallow human beings whole.

Origins:

Michael is unsure when his abilities started, what he does know is that ever since he was first hurt by the priest who touched him he has had the craving for blood. His skin itched and ached until the man who hurt his small adolescent body was dead beneath him, a bloody pulp. Slowly his methods of killing became simpler, and far easier to act on. However, when his body started to change, and he began omitting venom, he knew he needed to know why.

Since he could regain a human form unless his desires had been triggered, getting a job at the Magnus Institute seemed like the obvious thing to do. For a while it worked quite well, he was surrounded by information to do with his abilities and he figured out ways to deal with them. Gertrude was horrific, and Elias was suffocating, but spending time with Gerard and the work itself made it worth it.

Of course it didn’t take long for the urge to kill to rear its ugly head. This time of course, there were two obvious targets, two obvious prey that the Hunt could play with. Gertrude, the woman who bullied and tormented Michael mercilessly, and Jurgen Leitner, the man in the tunnels who had caused Gerard so much agony.
