Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Tenniel
Nicknames: Most often shortened to Tenn, or sometimes Niel. There is at least one person who always, inevitably, calls him Nine, though.
Gender: Male
Age: 15

Faction: Monster
Race: Great (Luna) Moth (Ala Doctor Dolittle... Or Mothra)

Natural Ability:

Other Form: All Great Moths are able to assume the less imposing form of their youth (caterpillar/worm) at will even after achieving their transformation to Moth.

This makes interacting with others a bit easier in their natural habitat up until they reach an intense emotional state that can shatter their concentration and revert them back to a moth form that can be anywhere from 12" - 40' across depending on age and ability.

How can you tell whether or not a Moth has achieved its final transformation if they're still in caterpillar/worm form? Easily, if you know where to look! Any Moth who has gained the ability to shift between forms will always have a symbol of their wings somewhere in their daily attire, be it in the form of cape, cloak, coat or scarf.

Personality:
A.... bit odd, but aren't we all?
e...nough of this already.
i... thought we were going to write something serious here.
o...rly?
u....nbelievable...

At times Tenn is quiet and contemplative, puffing away on his hookah while lost in a world of his own only to snap back into the here and now seconds later. He can be inquisitive, wanting to know more about how things work, even if he can't always figure out how to put them back together after he's taken them apart. That's what instruction manuals are for, right? Right?.

Despite pushing himself to the point of learning how to shape change, he is still young and in that youth a bit foolish. He appreciates a well played prank as much as he does a good book, although more often than not for completely different reasons.

He doesn't like it when the tables are turned and the pranks are played on him, however, often responding with a short temper when things don't go his way.

Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? To learn. Tenniel has always been enchanted by the idea of being able to progress what he knows (thinks he knows) to higher levels. He fancies himself to be a bit of an inventory (he isn't one outside of his own head currently) and he would like to see what Halloween can do for him.

His family, on the other hand, thinks that he is an oddball who needs to come to terms with the reality of a situation. He's shown promise in learning to transform early, but he obviously hasn't figured out how to do it right which shows in his rather unimposing height... (aka his wingspan in moth form is like... 4")

FEAR Ability: When his FEAR is charged Tenniel can produce a cloud of smoke after inhaling deeply, blowing it out in the form of other creatures (example) upon exhale to throw others off from attacking him. Even as he 'summons' them to 'attack' they do no damage, although some images can be quite intimidating...

Sadly, it's just a lot of smoke.

Fear Type: The Mind - This technique makes it harder for your opponent to hit their desired target, ie you and just about anyone else. This type of Fear attack is best used in one-on-one fights.
