Ezra Blackwood Appearance: 57, 6'4" A massive broad-shouldered werewolf with weathered warm-toned skin dotted in freckles, a thick muscular build, and shaggy salt-and-pepper hair that falls messily around his face & neck. His beard is scruffy and heavily streaked with silver, framing a strong jaw. His eyes are a deep amber-gold and has a prominent bumped nose. He has large pointed grey wolf ears, pointed canine teeth, a fluffy salt-and-pepper tail, & a bit hairy salt-and-pepper body hair. Wolf Form: He can transform into an enormous older dire-wolf, standing roughly 4'6" at the shoulder and stretching nearly 8'0" from nose to tail. His body is heavily built, with a broad chest, thick neck, powerful shoulders, and large paws, giving him the intimidating size of a wolf that has spent decades surviving. His coat is predominantly dark charcoal-gray, gradually becoming silver around his muzzle, throat, chest, and the tips of his ears, with darker charcoal along his back and legs. Personality: Despite his size and naturally dominant presence, he is remarkably gentle. He's protective, patient, loyal, and old-fashioned in the way he shows affection, preferring to provide, serve, protect, and make his partner feel safe. He is surprisingly submissive with someone he trusts. He enjoys having a partner who can take control and give him purpose, and there's something deeply comforting to him about being able to devote himself completely to someone. He isn't weak or meek; he's perfectly capable of taking charge, but he wants to have someone worth following. Once bonded, he becomes extremely loyal, clingy in private, physically affectionate, and almost embarrassingly eager to please. He's naturally nurturing, enjoys taking care of the people he loves, and has an almost old-fashioned sense of devotion; if he considers someone his partner, he wants to provide for them, protect them, listen to them, and make their life easier. He's got a dry, understated sense of humor, occasionally making gruff little jokes or teasing remarks with a completely straight face. He's patient with almost everything, but becomes frighteningly serious when someone threatens his partner or family. More than anything, he is a family man trapped inside someone who has convinced himself he will never get one—he dreams of a home, a mate, children, quiet mornings, and having someone waiting for him when he comes home.
