SORRY I COULDN'T HELP MYSELF. I'M TOO EXCITED FOR THE GROUP TO OPEN ; n ;

"..my.. name? I've never considered such things myself. "

Name: Marin

Age: 21

Gender: male

Height: Human- 6'0" || Animal Length: 40ft

Faction: Aquarium

Animal: Colossal Squid

Technique:

- Breathing Underwater

- Deep sea diving (500ft in human form and up to 7,500ft in animal form)

- Can see exceedingly well in utter darkness (has small areas of bioluminescence around his eyelids; act like mini headlights)

Job: no job. considering free-lance writing...

Personality:

> Quiet- Tends to be reserved and quiet until someone comes up to him.

> Curious- Especially around humans

> Observant- Tends to wait and observe a situation before acting.

> Patient- self-explanitory

> Composed- Always in a neutral state of mind.. or at least seems to be that way.

Likes + Dislikes:

+ Writing

+ Cafes (especially if the cafe itself has a high ceiling and dimly lit)

+ Meeting people (though he might not look like he's interested)

+ Learning more about the 'surface' (as opposed to life in the deep blue sea)

+ Fish 'n chips (darn tasty human food)

- Whales (very hesitant/fearful around whales)

- Scaring people in animal form

- Small enclosed areas

- Overly bright areas (bright lights in general)

- Not very tech-savvy...

History: Like most invertebrates, this squid was alone since birth and spent his time drifting in the open waters either exploring or hunting for food. Being a drifting species, He never had a home or family to return to but such was the life of a rapidly growing squid- colossal one at that.

In his own solitary travels, Marin found amusement in discovering new places or seeing different creatures; the ones that wouldn't scurry away at his presence. He never felt a need for romance or family; he never felt a need for such things

Life was simple...save for escaping other predators every now and then. Of course, there came a time where fish were scarce. Marino was left slowly drifting, hungry and tired-weak enough to become prey.
Marin had the misfortune of drifting into a sperm whale in his weakened state. It was a fight too close for anyone's liking but he narrowly escaped becoming dinner; with deep pin-like scars on his mantle(shows up on his abdomen in human form).
In his escape, Marin washed up on a beach close to civilization where he was found by the Aquarium director.
While he did not originally have a 'name' he went with Marin; he often overheard fishermen refer to him.
Perhaps this new life in the aquarium could be a new start...

Extra Info:

- He cannot fathom why his animal form tends to scare small children visitors.

- He never opens his eyes fully unless its necessary (ie. trying to find something in the dark)

- The tentacles that show in his human form have small rotating hooks just like his animal form. However, Marin just uses the tentacles as extra hands when needed in human form.

-Marin can hide them under his beanie when necessary.

-'Marin' means 'of the sea'.

Roleplay:

I can do both script and lit. rp -though I prefer script rp in a chatroom.

WOw I had WAY too much fun with just researching this majestic creature! holy tentacles! eye headlights?? hooks on arms and tentacles?? ability to reach insane depths?? gawd I could go on forever about it!
