Character Sheet for Vander Corkman
Nickname(s)
"Van", or sometimes "Vandy".
Species
Tyrannosaurus Rex/Velociraptor/Chlamydosaurus (Frilled-neck lizard)
Character Description
Like any dinosaur, he can roar.
He has a stretchy, very prehensile tail, which he uses a lot to grab items while he's busy.
His tongue is long and thick and his scales and feathers are waterproof. His skin is baggy, so if you pinch him, you can see how much skin he has.
He has telekinetik abilities, which he uses to lift himself off the ground and 'fly', as well as for holding items or generally moving heavy things around. But he doesn't like to 'rely' on this ability.
He knows a variety of ways to hypnotize, from eye-contact to suggestions, sometimes mixing his techniques around for a better outcome, though he uses this only for fun.
Personality
Collected and very patient. He has a well-developed view of himself, so it's very easy for him to ignore insults. However, when he loses his temper, you'll see an acid side of him.
He's also rather quick to forgive and is generally willing to give advise if asked. And when he's focused on doing something, he won't stop until he succeeds, even at the expenses of time, contacts or recourses.
His sense of humor is "fossilized"; it's hard for him to find something actually funny or to laugh at jokes, let alone tell them. Thus he seems pretty serious and cold.
Forgetful, cunning and sometimes lazy. He's quick to make friends and has something to say most of the time. Because of his nature, he has no real enemies.
Likes/Dislikes
He's fond of coffee, jazz instrumental music and loves to eat. Likes to see other people happy and to chat with friends and his favorite meal is steak.
Does not tolerate feeling like he's being pulled around, however he rarely lashes out.
Relatives/Family
Biologically, he has no relatives. But he has a little brother, a border-collie puppy named Andrew.
Body
Plantigrate.
His base (main) species is a T-rex, however, he is not as buff as others of his kind. He has cream-colored Velociraptor feathers in his forearms and legs, many of which are rimmed with a bright red color and an expandable neck-frill he extends at will, but mostly when he's angry. He has 5 'spikes' running down his back, as well as cream-colored stripes that go from his neck to tail.
