========================================
FULLHISTORY:
Tau was born on a hot summer day but then again most days were hot. He was born into the Omari tribe a group of nomads who wandered Africa for food. He never knew much of his very early toddler years. He assumed he had a mother of some sort but she had died. He liked to think of her as a kind woman who looked like an angel but he would never know. He heard rumors that she had been at the river trying to get reeds to make a basket when she was attacked by a hippo it had broken her. He was only three at the time and staying with Chi the medicine woman who often watched over the youth. Tau’s father never spoke of it in reality he scarcely spoke at all.
He raised his son though but it seemed not without a certain degree of pain. He looked like his mother somewhat and for him to see his dead imprint in the eyes of his son destroyed him a little. The duty that she would want him to care for her child kept him going. He was the cheif of the tribe and Tau was thus destined for greatness. He would someday be the future cheif. He was a clumsy child though and was often chastized by his father for not making a clean kill in the water buffalo that would cease up and charge or for tripping during the hunt and alarming the prey animals.
The Chi though prophesized greatness for young Tau. Early life in the bush was not easy. He was often the butt of other children's jokes. One time almost killed him at twelve when they told him his father had single handedly killed a leopard alone when he was ten. They teased and mocked saying surely his son should be able to sccomplish the same. So Tau being a boy of pride got his spear and began to stalk the great animal. He staye dlow in the brush like his father had told him and when he rushed upon the beast it let out a great snarl that completely took him off guard.
The giant teeth came out as it crouched jumping for young Tau's skull to crush it between its jaws. It reached out its claws and leapt onto the boy digging them deep into his head. Luckily out of nowhere came Enu one of the older boy of the tribe followed by a few friends. They jumped the cat and stabbed it until the great thing ceased to breathe. Enu picked up the cheif's son and remarked to the other boys how very brave he was and how that if he were dead he hoped that he would haunt them until the devil came to claim their souls.
The other boys would never say a thing about Tau again. He lived with the help of Chi. His father was thankful to his pack for getting to his son. Enu was a cheetah shifter and he had heard the commotion he arrived first on scene. Tau's father had been to far away to save him. Tau grew though he was known for dancing with a leopard by himself. Chi marked this up as a true sign of a great cheif.
Tau was treated like a sibling to Enu and Enu treated like a cheif's son for his great bravery. He would often walk with Tau and talk of how his father loved Tau. Tau would question him about why his father would speak to Enu and not to him surely this was a sign of his obvious wish for Enu to replace him. Enu would laugh and say he didnt speak it but he knew just the same. Tau would wonder if Enu was a mind reader and maybe thats how he knew to save him. A few years later he would learn.
Tau was in the brush one day when he heard a girl screaming. He peeked into the hedges always ready to size up an opponent before taking action. He had learned with the leopard that just jumping in was not the intelligent way to go about things. What he saw made him gag. The Demon woman was holding the other female teeth imbeded into her neck. The female was gorging herself on the others blood. Tau began to shake he felt hot and weary and instead of wanting to run he felt the impulse to leap forward.
As Tau leapt he became transformed into a huge lion with a dark black main typical of the older blood lions. He hit the ground with a thud and the leech looked up at him with hate and surprise hissing as the blood spewed from its mouth. The girl was limp and Tau thought it was too late. He flew forward andthe leech fell he began to dismember the damn thing without a second thought. Once it was in pieces it kept trying to go back together. He kept ripping it into smaller and smaller chards.
"Burn it" He heard though it was quite gutteral from the girl on the ground. He looked at her sympathetically before feeling himself on two legs again. He was ashamed to be naked in front of a stranger but this was no time to run off for clothing. He got two jagged rocks and knocked them together until there was fire. He cast the damn thing into the flames. The girl though who'd been bitten began to scream like she was in the worst pain of her life.
Tau backed up unsure of how to react but she grew silent. The girl would not survive the amount of blood taken. Her heart stopped beating before it could pump the venom in her entire body. The attack had stolen her from the world. Tau sat down near the bodies his eyes wide for he had never seen a dead person and had no understand of what had just happend. Transfixed were his eyes on the smoke and the gory body of the girl. He felt a hand on his shoulder and it squeezed once.
He looked up seeing Enu with a numb expression veiwing the body. "You'll never get used to it." Enu offered him his hand and Tau stood they turned to the cheif, the alpha, Tau's father. He smiled for the first time in Tau's whole life that he could remember. He was so proud that he had recieved the one gift he felt he could give him. He put his son and Enu under his arms and walked back to the temporary gathering place.
Time rolled by and soon Tau's father stopped shifting leaving the pack to Enu until Tau learned the ins and outs of shifting. He had to take a wife as the future cheif and was betrothed to Desta. She was lovely but they just didnt seem to click. Desta had long raven hair and golden eyes. She was human but she was nasty and thought being his wife that she deserved to be treated like a queen. She would scoff at the other tribes women as below herself.
Her father a man in the pack who shifted into a cheetah tried to hide his thoughts of shame from Tau but Tau heard them and mirrored them back to him. Desta was left home often when Tau went about on patrol to find demons of the night. She would entertain herself by seeing other tribes men. In a rage Tau came home finding her in bed with a man. He shifted immediatly into a lion his rage contorting him into a creature far different then what he was. He tore the two into pieces. He'd had a son with her at that point he took the babe and gave it to a tribes woman to raise.
He knew he was not fit to be a father after slaughtering the babe's mother. He grew intensely lonely his guilt keeping him company. Desta's father held no grudge. In those days if a man found his wife with another it was expected she would be killed. He was thankful that Tau didnt kill him for providing him with such a woman. Tau soon decided leading the tribe and the pack was to much for him. He left a human man to govern the tribe but stay in contact with him. He would fully concentrate on the pack.
Years passed this way. Tau was fully devoted to the pack and since he never needed to he never stopped shifting. Then somthing happend that would change his life. A man in the village boasted of his wife having a child. Tau came to bless the child and the man. It was widely believed at this point that Tau had made a deal with the devil to keep eternal youth and immortal life. He couldnt tell them otherwise and although members of his pack lived longer he had cycled through them as they found women and family and a reason to stop.
Enu's great great great great grandchildren were all about the village but Enu had long passed. When he walked into the tent the man screamed that Tau must leave. As he turned though he caught a glimpse of the babe and from that moment on he would love her. He would often pass in the night by the hut to make sure she was safe. His pack knew he'd imprinted and felt badly about his predicament. He would watch her as a child indeed on time she'd fallen in the river and he'd jumped in after her.
Her father had pulled Sandiata from his arms saying she must stay away from this man. He was a womanizer always running about in the night and somthing was unnatural about him. He would simply smile at her in his own way. She grew to be about hisw age and she was a strong woman. Far stronger then anybody he'd known and he was so intimidated by her. She was a lioness of true wildness. He spoke to her for the first time when she joined his pack but aside from that he has sheilded his imprint from her as best he can.
========================================
RPSAMPLE:
He'd woken up in the gutter....literally. The stink and stick of lastnights goings on stuck to his skin so he could feel it like a slime. He tried to get up and for a moment it hurt. He knew he had to have broken somthing and that in the night it healed setting incorrectly. He looked down at his knee and grimaced. Below his knee there was a 90 degree kink and it definitly did not look healthy. He hobbled up seeing not far off Larcan who too passed out, Gabe probably wasnt far away maybe in a tree or somthing leopards were freakin weird. He tapped Larcan so he shot up muttering curses in his irish accent about the damn mutt waking him.
He sleepily looked at Blane's leg and without being asked punched it hard. Blane luckily had bitten down waiting for this reaction. Larcan was a pro at rebreaking bones. He winced and let out a muffled growl of pain. He then watched Larcan settle back to his sleeping place as Blane sat down and carefull repositioned the bones. Good as new he thought although they were a bit off. He waited a couple minutes until he felt them set and stood up. A normal drug addicted alcoholic would have been worse for the wear luckily Blane was no normal addict.
He stood up not taking a second glance at his friends as he shifted into a tall maybe too lean maned wolf. He ran barely touching the ground like a greyhound his black hair that ran up his back to the tip of his snout bounced around. He made it to the clearing of his house as he watched Dell leaving. His heart ached for his sister. The only parental influence she had in her life was Dom. Blane and his mother had enough problems to fill a home with. He could see it taking his sister down a little.
He trotted after her careful to not be seen afterall if she was meeting a boy he'd want to be able to take care of it in a good natured brotherly fashion. She would avoid sed boy if she knew old Blane was on her red tail. Dom and Blane ahd sucessfuly mauled, beaten or scared the shit out of every possable suitor for their sister. She was growing up into quite the young woman and Blane planned to keep it that way. No man would knock her down a peg they wouldnt have the chance to.
He watched her in the diner from the brush for a logn time content that nobody was meeting her he became human once more. He untied his ragged clothes and walked in sitting beside her nearly laying on the booth he helped himself to her fries. "Dell baby tell me why the long face?" he said dipping the fry into her milkshake then repeating with another. He looked at his leg it was red still healing from Larcan. "Mom and Dom okay?"
