Character Sheet for Dogfish Shark
Species
Dogfish/Shark (notably not an anthropomorph)
Character Description
Doggy is a real life dogfish and not just an anthropomorph. Of course this makes her job as a nurse rather difficult without the aid of limbs but she has a solution. Doggy has mechanical limbs attached to her fins as part of an animatronic suit. The suit attaches to her spine be means of a locking device built where Doggy unfortunately lost the fin on her back.
Personality
Doggy is very shy and nervous but very good at her job. She often puts herself down and can sometimes be very sad but she loves to help others and knows how to put a smile on when needed. She has few friends who she really gets on well with but the friendships she does have seem baffling as she tends to be friends with people who put her down or put her in her place. In truth she's an excellent judge of character and can often see the good in people that others cannot. She loves romantic stories and hopes one day to meet her knight in shining armor but she's no fool. She's the kind of person who'd very happy to be a housewife and look after the kids but she'd likely end up in an abusive relationship. A real doormat she let's people walk all over her but push her too far and she can be quite devious at getting own back. She has a strong sense of right and wrong that's more on par with following rules and any opportunity to show off her nerd skills is ceased if not welcomed.
Likes/Dislikes
likes cute things, helping others and romantic dramas, hates meanies, shouting and fighting.
Background/History
Dogfish once swam the seas but some illegal hunters captured her and took her back fin to use as medicine. Dogfish survived but her swimming was severely affected. Therefore she could no longer swim in the sea and decided to get a job on land. Dogfish has always been down trodden, partially due to her short stature but also because of her mousy nature. She decided she wanted to help others the way that the nurses had helped her after the incident. Dogfish got through medical school with flying colors and was surprisingly not squeamish. Dogfish became a nurse in Olrit but was reassigned to Diegoltun after her job was taken by someone more charismatic than her. Diegoltun was glad to have her as she out-shined a lot of the other staff. She still works there to this day and enjoys every minute of it.
Relatives/Family
Doggy's family lives in the ocean. It's quite a distance from where she works now but she visits them on a regular basis. Doggy also hopes to start her own family if she could just meet the right person.
World/Setting
The Valhalor world is a mixture between real-world, fantasy and sci-fi settings with the second item being a more dominant factor. There are 8 islands in Valhalor, 5 of which are divided into multiple countries. Many years ago there was a war between the Dozers of Meka Island and the Yovans of South Island, which resulted in Valhalor being divided into 2 warring alliances. Monsterville is a country in South Island that is strongly fantasy themed, though Olrit county in particular is very much modern day. Monsterville is mostly forested and has a European look. It's home to a lot of unusual wildlife and often hazardous kinds. Diegoltun City is the main setting for the Monsterville game which this character is from. The city has a wide range of businesses from shops, craft works and restaurants to offices, entertainment and tourist attractions. There are also several smaller villages around Diegoltun and the city itself is sat next to a much larger city known as Olrit.
Body
Doggy is a blue tip dogfish, a small grey shark-like fish with a fin on its back and atop its head. The tips of the head, back, and front fins are blue and so is the top part of the tail and their inside. You can often see the blue from their mouth. Doggy has blue eyes also. What could also be considered her body are her mechanical prosthetic limbs which are attached to her back via a locking mechanism built into the place her fin was taken. These enable her to do many day to day tasks but with varying efficiency. They are white with blue fabric over the joints which has the appearance of clothing.
Clothing
Doggy does not in fact wear clothes but her prosthetic limbs and the frame they are attached to has the appearance of clothing (see body).
Accessories
Doggy has prosthetic limbs which could be considered an accessory though she sees them more as part of her body (see body). Other than that she carries and array of useful items including a small notepad, a smart phone and a pager.
