Hair
COLOR: Raven black

DEMON: All bodily hair is actually fine, durable feathers.
Clothes
STYLE: Chaotic, but it WORKS. Imagine: pastel goth + best parts of y2k scene + leather or fur-lined jackets + some element of little business man, and toss in some gender-nonconforming tops/accessories/makeup. That’s Ozzy.
Other
Ozzy has an unplaceable accent, thicker than Kit’s, and a somewhat formal/eccentric speech style. It’s partially due to language barriers, partially due to himself as a whole.

On the left underside of his jaw, starting from near his ear until a third the way across his throat, there is a very thick/jagged scar. It’s hard to notice without a good angle. He also has a deep, old scar on his left palm.

Ozzy is prone to flashing partial shifts, such as ruffled feathers and extra eyes, or small unnatural motions like over-stretching his body/neck/mouth. That said, he generally has good control over it, and isn’t easily startled.

Still, the veil tends to shield any of these brief, minor instances from sleepers. To them, his demonic features appear normal, eyes are light amber, and he doesn’t have a tail or wings.

Personality

DEFIANT, ADAPTABLE: Ozzy is a defiant, chaotic little ducker. He’ll walk backwards, on his hands, have ya breakin’ ya neck just to watch him go. He’s adaptable to a self-negligent fault, and craves the unknown and peculiar. He reaches for anything sharp and flashy, and he doesn’t respect until it’s earned. Ozzy’s wit is his best weapon, and he doesn’t mind if you’re just a little bit afraid.

SOCIAL, THRILL-SEEKING: Calling Ozzy an extrovert is an understatement. He hates being alone just as much as he loves new faces, and dissecting new personalities is endlessly intriguing to him. Ozzy is constantly seeing some new thrill and someone fun to experience it with. Emotionally, Oz holds people at arm’s length. He’s slow to trust intimately and dislikes depending on anyone aside from Kit.

PROTECTIVE, LOYAL: Despite his flighty nature, Ozzy is fiercely loyal to his inner circle. He’s fought to the death for them before and he’ll do it again. Ozzy is notably protective over Kit, who’s clearly struggling with the transition. Kit’s always looked out for him, and now Ozzy feels like it’s his turn to be the strong one. He will absolutely throw hands to make sure his big brother feels safe, and often lingers nearby even when they’re “apart.”


Additional Information
Ozzy isn’t nearly as jumpy/cautious as Kit is, but he also has deeply rooted PTSD. He’s extremely vigilant & has difficult days/periods. Some major triggers are fights/intimidation scenarios, sudden contact from behind, and potentially any time he sees a metal blade.

Some of Ozzy’s mannerisms are quite owl-like — coos, chirps, whinnies, etc.

Core Advantage
Grabby Hands (of the Owl Queen): Similar to Amorphous Body. When using this power, Ozzy’s body can become malleable and rubber-like. He can ignore skeletal limits, reach unnatural flexibility, squish into tiny spaces, and stretch his body like an elastic. Examples include stretching his arm across the living room or tying it in a knot. Ozzy can’t stretch his skull but can stretch/unhinge his jaw, and is able to swallow/consume whole creatures up to the size of cats. He can fit through any opening large enough for his head or into any space around the size of a half-barrel beer keg (~2 cubic ft). While active, affected body parts (minus head) are impervious to bludgeoning damage/broken bones/etc, but still susceptible to overextension while stretching/sharp things/etc.
Core Disadvantage
Noodle Body (But Like, Still Scary): Ozzy has a weakness to electrical currents, but with a unique manifestation. Rather than taking extra damage, he instead loses control of his core ability. Weak or localized pulses might leave a few fingers drooping, whereas particularly strong or prolonged currents could leave him with a near-useless noodle body for hours.
Bonus
Took Rapid Learning without a corresponding disadvantage.
Nerfs and Flavor
Monster Form: A massive, 10ft tall four-legged, serpentine owl-drake monstrosity with six eyes, an unhinging beak-mouth, too many teeth, and talon-like claws. His body is pitch black and covered in a mix of feathers and sharp quills** which he can softly rattle. Has wings but can hide them. Can swallow humans whole.

Spoken Prayer: Does not include voice recordings/videos of prayer.

Current Situation

History

Date of Birth
Unknown; will celebrate 16 sometime under Scorpio 2022
Place of Birth
The End, a distant subrealm of Hell
Ozrael, known to the family as Ohkmril, grew up in a truly horrific section of Hell known as The End. His mother, Faemori, was part of the tiny ruling class, and had countless children whom she encouraged to battle for her affections. Their home society was structured, and Ozzy was originally assigned to his elder brother, Laklikub, as an apprentice. Kliku was cruel and dangerous, having killed his former apprentices for infamy. When Ozzy developed his venom around the age of 9, he killed Kliku and was reassigned to Kithrim.

Ozzy expected a repeat of Kliku, but, when faced with protection and respect, he bonded to Kit like cement. Around “11,” he accompanied Kit (“13”) and faked their death during a surge of sibling warfare. From there, it was a life-or-death struggle to make ends meet, and things got really difficult when Kit ended up in an abusive relationship with a demoness named Semira. When the relationship boiled over, resulting in several half-secret events and Semira’s suicide, Ozzy did his best to support Kit emotionally while Kit tried to keep them alive.

Ozrael was confused when Sitsohm, whom he’d never met, appeared, and terrified when Faemori followed. The chaos that ensued was incredible, and he was barely aware of the portal made until Sitsohm pushed them through it. Now, with half-filled papers and a bundle of cash, they’re seeking out Casey Rivers and processing this new life… and waiting for Sitsohm to come back.

Anything Else
Ozzy’s native language is Ender Common, but he’s conversational in English.

Aliases, Aside from True Name: Ohkmril (among Faemori’s brood), Ozzy (go-by), Oswald Remy Fowler (legal name)

Important Note About Age: Time moves differently in The End. While Ozzy is mentally/physically equivalent to 15ish, his actual lifetime, relative to the Earthen experience of time, is immeasurable — or could be equivalent to many decades of vaguely “experienced,” nearly stagnant time. When on Earth, his aging is normal, but will stop (physically) as a young adult.
