APPEARANCE
Over all Appearance: Mike has thick and rather bushy looking hair that is a lightish brown, his skin is several shades lighter than his hair. The style of his hair is hard to tell, it is short despite how thick it looks and often it is pointing outward toward the sides. His eyes are normally grey however this does change based on how close he is to using his powers. He wears a red T-shirt, blue pants, white tennis shoes, and a red an blue hat. He stands 5ft 5 with a lithe build, there isn't really much to him.
In his werecat form, his fur is a bit darker and his eyes are dark green; which when he gets closer to changing his eyes start to change color. He becomes muscular when fully changed though, not overly muscular but enough to have strength. Normally his pants are the only thing to survive the change and they look like shorts once done.
In his normal cat form, his fur is the same shade of color as his hair, he has a white mouth area and a pink nose. Green eyes. His fur is short. When in human form his ears and tail do appear sometime, the inside of his ears are pinkish for both this form and when they appear in human form.
PERSONALITY
LIKES: Fish. Mice. Ear scratching. String. Peace.
DISLIKES: Doing something wrong. The thought of hurting others in some way. No one heading his warnings.
FEARS: Going to jail. People getting seriously injured. Catnip. Canines.
Over all personality:
Mike is a coward pretty much, he is timid, nervous, and paranoid. Hardly ever is he seen in a brave way or having normal courage, these instants are rare but that doesn't mean they don't exist. It's just very hard for him to be brave. This poor soul stammers from time to time and often he jumps to conclusions due to fear. Due to his constant fear induced state, he's very easy to trick often not seeing it until it's too late. Mike hardly ever stands up for himself and he does try to help others but a quick blow to put him back in place causes him to stop and just retreat, making him submissive as well.
When it comes to catnip, he gets rather odd. If you give him a catnip toy that has a small amount in it, he'll act just like a normal cat. Playing with it and such. When it comes to a large amount of the stuff, he gets very weird. He is still docil, just saying random things, rolling around, and just being silly. There isn't a mean bone in his body.
History/Powers
FAMILY: Mother; unknown status. Father; dead
HISTORY: Mike's parents weren't too odd of a mix, his mother was a animal morph while his father was just a werecat. The two were pretty close and a year after being married they had a son they named Mike. Their happiness wasn't to last though, his mother fell ill five months later and his father had died in a car crash. Struggling to care for her son, she took him to a friend of her family and gave them her son to raise. She the left and was never heard of again. Life for Mike was a odd thing, the friends of his mothers were honest and told him that he wasn't theirs when he was old enough to understand this. Such news wasn't something you want to tell a seven year old, for that caused what was happy to turn into low self confidence and a nervous ball of energy. Mike felt like it was his fault despite how his guardians worded everything.
At the age of thirteen, his powers awakened and it was a full moon that night too. So he ended up changing at night. Once morning came, his guardians told him what he was and that didn't help him out further. So he often spent his time as a normal cat except for when going to school and on full moon nights. When he turned eighteen, he left home and came to New York. Immediately things went downhill, he ran into some gang members and they took to beating him up. When he changed to get away, they managed to stop him and decieded to use him. From then on he was forced to go along with their plans and lately they attempted to rob a train; failed miserably.
POWERS:
Animal morphing: This a power from his mother side, allowing him to take the form of a harmless stray cat with all the normal senses of one. He is capable of speaking human.
Werecat: pretty much just like a werewolf, save he's just a large anthromorphic cat. However he keeps his human mind about and can change willingly. Unlike werewolves, he's not built for power but really more for speed and agility. He can change at will though.
Claw retraction: he can make his claws appear in human form
WEAKNESSES:
Animal Morphing: he can only turn into a small brown cat; a power he gained from his mother's side.
Werecat physiology: At night there is always the urge to transform despite the lunar stage and sometimes he can't resist it.
He still changes on the full moon.
Silver
Enhanced senses can cause disorientation and pain due to strong smells an loud noises.
Catnip; don't give him this stuff he tends to get really strange with it.
He's physically weaker than a werewolf, but he is faster.
