My second male character. Blackavar Mooncalf. Don't look at me like that, there's reasons for his name. For one, he's a magical creation. A wizard decided he needed a fearsome second to do all his dirty work, and one he could control. So he created a were-minotaur, by combining an unfortunate man, and an unfortunate minotaur, who he'd managed to capture. He also tweaked the coloring just a tad, to make his creation suit his tastes. He's unnaturally black. Everywhere. Skin, fur, claws, eyes, hair, hooves, horns. The mage even required him to wear black clothing. Blackavar is the name he was given, and Mooncalf is a self-chosen last name. See, the minotaur side is dominant in him. He acts like one, and tends to think like one. He is neither of the males who made him, he's a new person, and while he has all their knowledge and skill, he has none of their memories. Mooncalf is an old word for monster, or unwanted/malformed birth. He's a decent guy, and finally, he found a hole in his oaths, and was able to finally kill the man, and free himself. And er, the log sucks, and I know it sucks. Bleh. Ignore it. I'm hushing, before I blab you to death.
