RPD Example Profile: William Murphy

He fell in love freshman year of high school with a girl named Clara. He tried not to, knowing when he turned eighteen and became a full werewolf that everything would change. But he was in love, eventually it would turn to heartbreak though. He had to protect her, so he broke it off. He never expected her to follow him into the woods that night, thinking she’d find him with another girl and instead finding him shifting into a werewolf. Thankfully his father was there to keep disaster from happening.

Surprisingly Clara came around easily to the idea of werewolves. She was more intriqued than frightened. They began dating again while and built trust between woman and beast. They continued their relationship through college and married shortly after graduation. William went to work with his father hunting and doing hard labor while Clara worked in his mother’s flowershop. Soon enough though, they had to move out of the territory of his ‘pack.’ Were/human children were frowned upon. No one could predict how much wolf would be in mixed children and it sometimes ended in disastrous ways. But Clara and William wanted to create a family and so did, thus little Elizabeth was born.

Tragedy struck the family three years later. A large storm blew through town which sent a tree crashing through the back window of their home. William and Elizabeth had been out and once they arrived it was too late. She died of internal injuries after William used his strength to remove the tree from atop her. It was an earth shattering loss which sent him and his daughter back to their home town. His parents helped him raise his little girl for a few years, but the ghosts of his past and the memory of his late wife haunted him, even after he accepted the loss of her. And so he moved, his little girl now nine and him a thirty four year old single father. But he wanted a fresh start for him and Elizabeth and he was determined to have it.

Personality: Socially, Will is your average nice guy, a family man at heart. He's hard working and gets along with most of everyone. He's very caring towards women and children, though seeing a family united, walking down the street or shopping in the store will send a pang of sadness through him, wishing he could regain that type of balance to his family life. He's generally helpful and not afraid to talk to strangers and create new friends. He can, however, literally smell trouble. Whether it's an illegal substance running through someone's veins or the smell of adrenaline from someone looking to start a fight, he can sense it. He takes care to stay out of the way of people like that. He enjoys spending time with his daughter, her happiness makes him happy. He is very protective of her and easily gets angered if someone puts her in harm's way or if something upsets her.

Weakness: Silver, as with most lycans, is his main weakness. Not only will the metal burn his skin, but if it's embedded within him, say with an arrow or a lodged bullet, it will begin to poison his system. Even if the wound is a through and through, the silver residue can still impact him if the wound is not cleaned properly. The full moon is a potential hindrance. On the day of, as well as the day before and after a full moon, his senses are at their highest. With that also comes a heightened animal instinct which can make him more volatile and less in control of his shifting if he's faced with too many stressors. As for emotional weaknesses, there is always his daughter. He will do as much as any parent can do to keep her safe, even if it means endangering his own life.  

Weapon: While in human form, he owns both a medium sized Beretta and your standard shotgun. Those are both tucked safely away in his home, though depending on the situation, he may be carrying one or the other in his truck or on his person. When he is severely angered his nails and teeth may lengthen and sharpen. It's an instinctual reaction that he tries to hold back for sake of not being discovered. In his human form he is stronger than your average man, but not overly so. In his full lycan form, his entire body can be a weapon.

Other Depending on the rp, his history, the way his wife died, and him having a child may change
