Flaw: If you find one, do tell
Distinguishing mark: A large tattoo that covers his whole body. Image hereStyle. It’s the way he works. Nothing in his wardrobe is out of date and if it is, it’s only there because he wears it so good no matter how old it is. Xander will often wear low cut shirts and tight pants. But depending on his mood, he may end up with a baggier punk look. It seems no matter what kind of clothing he has on, it always makes him a good-looking guy; even when he only wears something small.
As for hair, a quick messy style or just leaving it is all he does. He is often also seen with a small amount of stubble on his chin. Sunglasses are most often worn as a cover up for his gray eyes. And different type of jewelry when not dancing is also a must. This male is almost as bad as a female when it comes to looking good. But when you have a body like his, who wouldn’t?

Eccentricities: Dances when in a good mood (Anywhere anytime).
It’s hard to describe a man with so many problems. Xander is a pureblood shifter, one that grew up in medieval times. So the way he sees things it quiet different then now, for example; females are mainly for cooking, cleaning and keeping her man happy. But don’t think he is a total ass for thinking this. He gives all people who deserve respect the respect they need, but still makes sure they know he’s the boss.
He does have an emotional problem; one moment he will be happy, then the next his more predatory emotions kick in. Most of the time he can control his urges or anger and will give off a kind, fun loving vibe. But when he cannot hold it back anymore, do watch out. He may shift in front of you, think you are a simple animal to eat and attack you.
A serious man can appear, but very rarely. Normally Xander is just a ‘immature’ giddy male.

Marked: ---A history that hasn’t stopped growing, yet has never been recorded. But let’s start at the beginning.
It was around 342 B.C.E that Therius was born into this world, along with a twin brother whose name has been long forgotten. He was your normal child growing up, loved by his parents and village. And like most children from that time period, was taken away to war at the young age of 12.
Being a warrior came natural to the boy. Fighting was almost too easy, and with his brother by his side nothing seemed to be a threat to him. The two were well known in their group, known for holding ones own and keeping others safe as well.
It took 8 years, 8 long years before his strength in battle was recognized; when the young yet powerful, Alexander the Great, was crowned king. Of course no one knew the power he held at the time, the new king was just a child who happened to be next in line when the old king was murdered. But alas Therius was given what he so deserved, a general’s ring and his own troops.
Of course, before his 21st birthday rolled around he and his brother were called back home. It was their family tradition for all adults of this age were to return home for reasons why; Therius had no clue.
His village consisted of all the Devenish family tree. Not one person was an outsider, and for this simple reason; they were all shape shifters. But not you’re run of the mill werewolf. No his family tree was a complicated one with customs and rules. But first, one must pass the change.
It is at the age of 21 that the Devenish family goes through their first change. And luckily for Therius he survived it, while his brother on the other hand did not. So his life went on, feeling so alone on the battle field without the feeling of protection of his brother.
But as a few years went by and Therius found love; a human women his father had picked out for him. Not too long after a son was born, being a loyal solider to his king and only his king Therius names his son Alexander. So like a good fairy tail, his life was being placed together happily until the fall of Alexander, and the death of his family. These details of his life have been forgotten over the years, along with names and places.
After that moment in time, Therius lived his none aging life collecting things over the years which in time made him become one of the worlds richest men. However he doesn't often touch his money nor show it off.
His nickname was stolen when his son Alexander died. In a way to remember him, Xander was born.
~~~~~~ The Devenish Breed History and Info ~~~~~~~
Close to the beginning of time, or at least sometime close to when the gods actually did things. A single male human was given the gift of shifting; and over the years more families were created.
It was one family, Devenish, which pleased the gods the most. Doing something heroic or stupid (the reason for the god’s actions is unknown) but as a gift to the family the gods made all of them immortal. However this was only accomplished with a ritual that was to be preformed on the 21st birthday.
Because the family was so protective of their family line, only the males were allowed to marry and bare children of the same last name and even then the 'human' female was picked often by the father of said son.
As part of the family ritual, one must under go their first change; which not many would live past. But their soul animal would become their shifting form. Rarely one was given the talent of two or more forms but a payment for this ability is often fatal.
~~~
When a Devenish son has picked a mate there is a ritual that must be preformed. Because most males picked a human female to keep the family line fresh, he needed a way to keep her alive for no god would bless a human with immortality (unless they are lucky).
So the male 'marks' her with a type of tattoo that will appear on the marked creature’s body. Only when the ritual is done. Other than immortality the marked mate is given rules and powers depending on their Shifters own power.
But sadly this breed has died out and only Xander remains. There are still different kinds of Shape shifters, but only on Devenish Demon.
May add more in time.
