LET THE WHOLE THING BLOW
B A S I C I N F O
★ NAME: Ludwig Fleischer
★ NICKNAME: Lud, Ears
★ MEMBER GROUP: Epispect
★ POKEMON: Zangoose
★ AGE: Twenty-eight
★ HEIGHT: 6'
★ WEIGHT: 170lb
★ FACE CLAIM: Prussia from Hetalia
★ APPEARANCE:
Once upon a time, Ludwig was rather attractive - nice blue eyes, blond hair, a body to die for. Now, though, he looks much different, the result of his pokemon DNA. His eyes are red and his hair is pure white, giving him an albino-like appearance. He's a bit more muscular then he was before the change, and he gets plenty of excercise to keep himself in top condition.
His body is littered with scars, almost all of which were gained since he started working for Epispect. His nails are an unattural looking black, and rather sharp, to the point where he has to be careful not to damage things. He's scaled walls with them before, which leaves things a bit uncomfortable when he's called on to do delicate tasks with things that are easily scratched.
Most obvious, though, is his ears. Ludwig has two Zangoose ears jutting from his head, one white and one red. They're absurdly fluffy and horribly obvious, and while they let him hear a fair bit better then a human, it's also horribly embarrassing for him. Better not to bring it up, because he's broken a few faces for people commenting on them.

P E R S O N A L I T Y
★ POSITIVE:
- Dedicated >> While he doesn't appear to be so, Ludwig is rather dedicated to anything he puts his mind too. While people might assume that his laziness means he won't commit, he normally does, and always carries through. Right now, that means his job and his partner, but it's always apt to change.
- Charismatic >> Ludwig has fantastic charisma, and has little trouble charming most people into letting him get his way. He used to be far better with women, but it's even out now that he's so obviously a Zangoose.
- Egotistical >> Born into money, Ludwig thinks pretty highly of himself. He's never had to really struggle to survive, and he blames this more on how good he is then the simple fact that he was lucky at birth.
- Brave >> Ludwig never backs down, and while some would call it sheer stupidity, he considers it simple bravery. Faced with a rampaging Gijinka, Ludwig stands his ground and fights right back.
- Calm >> There are very few things that upsets Ludwig. Really, you could be calling his mother all number of things and it won't bother him in the slightest. The only thing that messes with him is his ears. Mention them, and he'll freak right out.
★ NEGATIVE:
- Lazy >> So Lazy, you don't even know. Ludwig slacks off on almost anything, opting to let whoever he's partnered with do most of the work. He sleeps through anything he considers boring.
- Easily Distracted >> While Ludwig can be extremely dedicated to things in the long run, in the short term, he's pretty easily distracted. Something as easy as a 'He's over here!' can break his train of thought, and it always takes a moment for him to pick it back up.
- Bloodthirsty >> While he attributes it to his Zangoose DNA, the simple truth is that Ludwig has always enjoyed hurting things. He likes watching people freak out, and the fact that making people hurt is now his job is wonderful for him.
- Rude >> Ludwig is blunt. So blunt. He never holds back, never tries to bury what he really thinks. If he thinks you're stupid, he'll say as much, and really only his direct superiors are immune to it.
- Bossy >> The eternal rule for Ludwig is 'I am right and they are wrong'. He believes firmly in himself to the point of being egotistical, and he has no problems with pointing out to others that his way is the right one.
★ HABITS, QUIRKS:
- Ludwig sleeps all the damn time.
- Ludwig is incapable of leaving well enough alone, and always ends up picking at any scabs he has. He frequently has to explain to hotel staff that the blood is not because he murdered someone, but simply him peeling away scabs and bleeding all over. Similarly, this infuriates his partner because he's always bleeding on the damn seats.
- Ludwig is completely immune to any and all poison - so he has no issues eating the occasional bit of bad food. It doesn't affect him beyond tasting bad, so he really doesn't care.
- Ludwig's ears are sensitive, both to touch and sound. Loud noises can disable him for a moment while he adjusts, and his ears are extremely sensitive to petting.
- Ludwig is an excellent climber, scaling walls easily with help of his nails.
★ OVERALL PERSONALITY:
The first thing most people notice about Ludwig (beyond the ears) is how damn lazy he is. Any time he has to make a report, he dumps it on his partner and goes to nap, sprawling on the couch, bed, or back seat of the car. He doesn't actually sleep as much as it may seem (although he does sleep a lot), simply because he's often sleeping with one eye open. His ears make sleeping difficult, constantly picking up stupid background noise. When it comes down to the chase, however, Ludwig is full of energy, relentlessly pursuing his pray. When he finally catches his pray, it's never an easy end, and he's extremely violent, rather then making it quick on them.
Ludwig is entirely convinced he's better then everyone else, and his ego is the size of a small country. He's bossy and brash, blunt to the very end, and has no problems pointing out the flaws of others. If anyone points out his own flaws, however, he's quick to laugh it off, ignoring any insults flung at him. He considers himself above 'petty squabbles', and it's only his ears that work as a berserk button. Anyone, friend or foe, who mocks his fuzzy ears is going to end up with a broken face - or worse.

H I S T O R Y
- Ludwig was born into wealth, the son of an old business family with plenty of connections. The second son, it was immediately obvious that his elder brother was going to get the most of it, and Ludwig rebelled, acting out against his family. He was charismatic enough to charm the pants off most girls he came across, and he gained a large reputation for being a bit of a player. Needless to say, his family didn't appreciate him messing with the family name, and were quick to disown him before he was even eighteen.
- Ludwig was quick to realize that it was far easier to get girls when you had plenty of money to throw around. Ludwig opted to try and get a job, and failed at almost everything he did. He was too lazy for most professions, and it wasn't until he found a posting for Epispect that he finally found his dream job. He'd always enjoy chasing down people, even if he hadn't gotten to do so very often, and the job seem perfect.
- The job didn't have very many requirements, the main one simply being a willingness to murder Gijinka. It was far easier to hire plenty of hunters and let them either prove themselves adept or get killed off then it was to filter out, so Ludwig was given a chance. He did well his first three hunts, and after that he was given the option to become a Gijinka himself. He jumped at the chance, eager to become even better.
- While he's in love with his new Gijinka self, he could do without the ears. Large and fluffy, they've successfully killed his ability to pick up women seriously, because no one can really take him serious. Instead, he threw himself at his job, picking up a partner and moving around as needed. He's become especially violent since he became a Gijinka, and frequently fights with his partner, even if he's not fighting over anything. Recently, they've moved for a reason he's not quite sure of, they've moved locations, and while he tagged along with Magnus, it's more because he rather enjoys messing with his partner and doesn't want a new one.

★ OOC NAME: Ress
★ AGE: Twenty-One
★ OTHER CHARACTERS: None.
★ RP SAMPLE:
Johan loved the woods. He'd always loved it, always found it to be comfortable. Even if most found the forbidden forest scary, Johan had never found it such. Sure, there were things in the woods that he preferred to avoid, and he'd had one or two encounters with things he wouldn't want to meet again, but after a few years in Hogwarts, a trip to the forbidden forest wasn't nearly the danger it had been, once upon a time. Now, the danger was far more in the school. There, everyone was always looking, always watching, waiting for a little half-blood to slip up. In the woods, he was alone, safe and happy and left to rely on his own wits.
Visiting the woods was one of the few places that Johan broke the rules. He'd first visited during a particularly lonely period of third year, back when he'd missed his family the most. They'd always hunted, be it in England or Russia, and the forbidden forest was where he'd felt closest. He'd snuck out then, hiding away in the forest, but he hadn't gone far in, and had stayed mostly still. He hadn't wanted to run into anything too scary. Even then, though, he'd held little fear for the forest.
In later years he'd visited more or less, although since the rise of Voldemort, it had been fare more 'less'. It was already mid-october and it was only his first trip into the woods. Most wouldn't like rain, especially on a day in the woods, but for Johan, it worked out. Days in the woods were always weekends, and they always started early - before dawn. He wasn't stupid enough to go wandering the woods at night, but he knew if he was able to get to the woods before the castle woke up for breakfast, no one would spot him. Who would actually expect a student to be sneaking out at the crack of dawn on a rainy day? It wasn't as if the forest needed to be guarded - few students were stupid enough to visit, after all.
Once he was in the woods, everything was better. Here, there were no death eaters, no lingering suspicions of his blood status. There were only animals, magic or not, and he liked them. He could easily spend the whole day travelling the forest, heading down game trails and changing direction only occasionally. Game trails were safest, after all. If he had his full hunting gear, he'd have been able to go off-path easier, but wearing nothing but jeans, a green t-shirt, and a black rain-jacket meant that tall grass wasn't the best of ideas.
It was a stupid suspicion, but since Dumbledores death, Johan had been far more careful with the border line. He couldn't be sure it wasn't enchanted, wasn't trapped to warn people if a student tried to leave. He'd stayed well away, not going as far into the forest as he had previously - and sometimes, that meant getting closer to the edge of the woods then he'd have liked. The chance was always there that someone from the school could see him, and as much as he tried to avoid it, it was always going to be a risk.
For the moment, though, he was well away - a bit farther into the woods then normal, a bit closer to the border. Here, though, was one of his favorite spots, a nice little clearing with a rock large enough to jut out. It was wet and slippery, but he was careful, and it wasn't hard to take a seat on it, giving him a nice little view of the rest of the clearing. The nice thing was that he had room - able to see someone coming a bit more then he would have if he'd stayed completely in the woods. It was here he chose to eat lunch, pulling out a small sandwich he'd made for himself in the kitchens.
Sometimes being a Hufflepuff had it's perks.
