Character Name: Caesar Lions
Character Age: 22 years old
Gender: Man
Species:Animagus
Appearance:
Green eyes sparkle in the sun, hidden only by long, black Lion's mane. Caesar Lions' mane. His face is handsome and shaven, and thick eyebrows rest above his sight. Around his neck he wears a leather strap, and upon that strap is his lucky gold coin. It is always there, even while he sleeps. While he is human, and even... while he is beast.
His chest is bare while he works, or is otherwise covered with a tattered and torn old shirt. His pants are dark green, giving him camouflage while he is human in the forest. A black belt is what he wears at his waist, and a sword is what he wears at his belt. It is a handsome sword, with a golden hilt and steel blade. It has served him well during battles. A lion is etched into the handle. It is a hidden compartment, where he keeps his deepest secret concealed.
Caesar's feet are bare when he is on the ship. He finds no need for his boots there, and he finds it easier to climb the rigging without them. But while human on land, his boots are on. He has no desire to be dancing on broken rum bottles in the streets.
Personality:
This young Pirate is particularly adventurous. Or more so... mischievous. But it isn't his fault. The opportunities just seem to pop up wherever his feet trod. Pestering his drunken friends with dead fish, and then scrambling up into the rigging as fast as he can. Or eating fire in the dark and scaring people when it sprays from his mouth. Or even picking fights just for the sake of running. That seems to be the lifestyle for him.
Caesar is typically very happy and social around people. But he does enjoy his precious solitude. Often wandering off into the forests and mountains, he has been known to go for disappear for days, perhaps even weeks at a time. It has come to the point that the other shipmates don't even search for him anymore. They know that he'll be back before it's time to set sail.
Lions loves to go hunting. It's one of his favorite things in the world to do, besides looking for treasure. When on expeditions, he is always the first to bring fresh meat back to the ship. He'll hunt anything down. Sheep, cattle, deer, goat, rabbit, squirrel, you name it. Nothing stands a chance against him. Even bears.
History:
Caesar grew up with the Sea Hounds. From a young boy, he was raised by the Pirates. They were like his extended family. They taught him how to tie the ropes, set the rigging, and batten down the hatches. They taught him how to use a sword, and then taught him how to fight with it. Everything he knows, Caesar learned on the sea.
But he has a little secret that came to him at the age of fourteen. It was his first hunt, and he, being Caesar, wandered off in determination to find his own kill. And he found it. A large mountain goat upon the hillside of an island that they were visiting in search of treasure. But when he raised his bow, something extraordinary happened. He dropped it. His hands became paws. His long unruly hair became a lion mane. His fingernails became his claws, and his teeth became his fangs.
Over the years, he learned to control his ability until he could use it at will. Soon, he came to enjoy his time as a real Lion, and took up his habit of running away for days at a time, just to wander the forest on four paws. No one on the crew, or anywhere else for that matter, knows anything of it.
Nowadays, he spends his time stealing gold from other Pirate Bands, sailing the seas at his will, drinking when he wants to drink, eating when he wants to eat. There is no one that can tell him what to do. In his opinion, being a sailor is the most free job you could have.
Job/Career:Sea Hound Sailor

Weaknesses:

- Fear of falling in love.

Sample Post: Caesar plodded through the forest at a gentle lope, his tongue hanging from his mouth. It was hot today. Very hot. The sun had never been so fierce, nor had the land ever seen so warm a day. He dropped to the dirt ground, immediately being bathed in the cool shadows. At least the forest was loving enough to grant him some relief from this heat. He could almost smell the water. No, he could smell it. Lifting his head, he let a strong purr of joy escape his mighty throat. He had found a stream.
