Abnormalities in Physical Features: Spines Running down back, One Red eye, Another light blue, Large Jaw.

Height: 5'0"

Limitations:That of any normal wolf, but can take a bit more hits.

Weakness's: That of a normal wolf, sounds matching that of his echolocation can cause horrible headaches.

Refference, (if applicable):

Rp sample: Filicide chuckled darkly, sitting atop his thrown inside of a cave, his spines laying flat against his spine "Please do leave, I hate being pestered when im trying to catch some shut eye" his raspy voice echoed throughout the dark cavern. His two mis colored eyes glowed in the darkness, one a light blue the other a blood red. As the room started to light up his fur shined, the top had a white line running down his spine, which went to his face and created a mask like coloring, between the white and light grey was a pitch black like fur "Look..if you leave now I won't have any need for aggression, and I'll forget you woke me up" The spines upon his back slowly began to stiffen and shake, making a sickening clatter sound as they rubbed against each other "well..your choice?" the dark chuckle echoed again as a paw started to lift, watching the intruder run out "very good" (extremely short and not as good as usual, im a bit tired)

Anything else we should know?:

Greetings, Filicide!
I have just a few questions to ask you about your application and character :)

First off, spines;
- How big are they?
- Will they be used in battle, if so, how much damage do they do.. Do they disconnect, do they grow back?
- What is his disadvantages with this?

Second, Size:
- Five foot, paw to shoulder? Or five foot paw to head?
- Weight, If he is either or.. And if his build is how you say it is, I feel he needs to weigh a bit more.
- What is his disadvantages with this, if there are some.

Third, Shadow figure.
- When he becomes a shadow figure, can people see him?
- Is he attackable?
- Does he use it in combat?
- How long does it last?
- What are the disadvantages he has with this?

Fourth, Echolocation.
- How far can he use it?

I'ma have to say, Decline, until this is cleared up. :(

1: the spines differ in size but are generally within the range of 1 foot being the longest and 5 inches being the shortest. The spines are more of a defense mechanism then a pure offensive and can be used to deflect any attackers jumping onto his back, but as they say a great defense is a good offense, he could use the spines to tackle somebody with or something else along that. The spines are made out of sharp protruding bones coming out of his back, and yes will grow back and can be broken off, but it takes quite a large amount of force, The spines have an equivalent strength of a Femur in the human body. Oh and for weaknesses, these spines WILL dig into something if thrown onto it hard enough, making it hard for Fili to stand back up. Also things will get stuck in them, making his hygiene a little um, poor.

Second: The five foot mark is from paw to head, and i'll just bump is weight to say, 200-220, if you want you, can make the exact measurement, because i don't know exactly what you want. Though he'll be on the stronger side, speed will not be his greatest advantage.He'll be slower than the average wolf, but, be able to take a few more hits and probably deal more damage.

The shadow form is just something that happens, he's still attackable, still fully vulnerable, it's just a visual effect of what he is, a 'Shadow' Hound. As for combat, it'd be useless,unless he was trying to run away. there are no disadvantages because all it is is visual, except for in broad day light he'd stick out horribly. The time is could last is however long he may run, which all depends on what he was doing beforehand. Finally, yes, he is able to be seen, his features just blur and a small stream of black follows behind him(Ex. Much like the phoenix from W.O.W)

Lastly, for echolocation the general vicinity of it working in daylight is about a 30 foot diameter (15 feet in all directions), and at night it's the same thing.

Umm, anything else You need to know?

Oh, and i forgot to add to my application, filicide is able to un-hinge his jaw, causing him to be able to either A: Swallow things whole or B: Chomp down on something that is too big to bite without doing so. With this happening he can have something knocked into his mouth causing him to choke, or have it hit and send it to the side causing his jaw to hang there for a short period of time before his muscles slide it back into place.
