XICOHTENCATL CUETLACHTLI
Do you really want to leave it alone?
RANK. E AGE. 21 DOB. 08 13 ETHNICITY. aztec swamp werewolf OCCUPATION. member of redhook RESIDENCE. red hook
One disease Cortez did not bring to the Aztecs was the one that Xi is afflicted with. He is a descendant of a Spanish conquistador, bitten some 600 years ago in a fight with the natives. Rascism, back in the day, made his ancestors refuse to breed with the Native Americans. As a result, though his human form is Caucasian, his wolf-form's ethnicity is Aztec.
His father had been a werewolf. The guy left his mother when he was an infant, around when his mother discovered their baby would shape-shift into a white puppy under the moonlight. Growing up, all he knew of his old man was that he was a rocker, some drummer of some obscure band in the 70s that his mother admired. She had been that lucky groupie. Somehow the woman raised him. Parents can sacrifice a lot for their children, sometimes, accepting them no matter their deficiencies. They weren't too bad off. She had a Bachelor's in Nursing, and she was on call as an ER nurse. Though she supported him pretty well financially, she wasn't home often, and Xi drifted under the bad influence of his friend.
He met his father when he was seventeen. He'd found him and contacted him, asking if they could meet. His old man came with another woman, some broad younger than his mother, and they spoke of things unrelated to their disease. The lady left them early, and it was then that Xi liked to think his father might be his Dad. He was told about the packs, about avoiding them and not joining their stupid mobs, and then, he was told his wolf name.
Still Xi was a trouble-maker. The more he thought about his father, the more he sought to be his opposite. He joined a pack to spite his old man, and he's become a pretty loyal member of Red Hook. He's found them to be more of a brotherhood that really understands him and his feral needs.
He attends Fordam University, and is a member of the Mu Omega fraternity there. He got in with his grandfather's name, who attended it and became a lawyer a long time ago. The school's admissions board also had an admirer of the band his father played in, which is why he had been accepted.
But it is a secret he is a werewolf among these guys - they think he is just a Waker with a weird, sadistic sense of humor. He joined the Frat to gain more connections and it was a career move for one day when he plans to graduate.
He is currently being black-mailed for this secret.
His name means 'angry bumblebee wolf.' His human name is Hector Cortes.
ENHANCED CONDITION. His inner beast greatly increases his natural, physical prowess. He, in essence, in top shape for a human, and then some.
ENHANCED SMELL. Like a real dog, his sense of smell is more colorful than his sense of sight. He perceives the world by aroma.
BONE MANIPULATION. An ability hereditary among the Aztec wolves, Xi can manipulate his bones, and to a lesser extent, the bones of others. In combat, he can grow a bone exo-skeleton armor around his white wolf body. He has minor healing abilities when it comes to broken bones. He can only manipulate the bones of others when he touches them.
CONNECTIONS III. As a member of Red Hook and and the Fraternity Mu Omega, Xi has extensive supernatural and real-world connections. He knows a lot of people, formally and informally.
LIBRARY II. As a student of Fordham studying history on a pre-law track, Xi is a well-read werewolf. He finds history fascinating, and he likes to tell stories from the past, even though his listeners might not really care.
LIEGE I. As an underling of Red Hook, Xi's liege is the Alpha. Being a part of the werewolf pack provided Xi with even more connections in and around the city. (Connections II -> III)

PENDING
fix these things and you should be fine
Sorry, but the assets from v4 do not transfer over. However, you MAY still be able to keep your $350 worth of assets depending on your returning member bonus. Or you could borrow money, but check your returning member bonus first pls. The details are in the announcement. Please clarify the amount of bonus received in the box.
5. $100 has always been the starting allocation (katya had an opening bonus of 50 back in the day too), so technically you start with 150. That brings your debt to -200, but if you want to redeem your returning member bonus, then I can wipe out a good chunk, if not all of that debt. Just PM me whenever
