Appearance: Khetan isn't particularly big or muscular. He's quite short in height, standing at barely 5'8. He's medium build and quite thin. Khetan has almost "pretty" features rather than masculine. He has very dark brown hair, almost black but not quite. It's worn thick and has a natural wave to it, when left unbrushed and unstyled can be quite messy. His eyes are a warm and friendly brown, his nose is large, if a little squashed looking at the bottom. His lips are thin, but his smile is cheerful and friendly. His skin is a lovely shade of deep brown.

Personality: Khetan is an observant man. He notices what goes in around him and takes stock of it. He's protective of the people he loves, particularly his Clan. They are his family and he will do whatever he has to to defend them. But he also has the tendencies of a strong father figure. He doesn't like back talk or put up with arrogance. Khetan doesn't rule with an iron fist, he is happy to take advice and will ask for it if he feels its needed. But its his decision that matters. He's a firm believer in innocent until proven guilty, and works as a public defender.
Talents: Khetan is a strong and dominant lycanthrope, and an alpha regarding his power. He has complete control over his beast, hold of shifting to the last minute, and partially shift certain parts of his body, usually only his claws. He can shift his bones, occasionally changing his human appearance, but does not do this often, the talent is just something he has learned to do. He can also heal lower lycans using sex and can use voice control over submissives. Despite his size, Khetan is quite athletic. He jogs, swims and goes to the gym regularly. He finds it a good way to work off the stress of being King of the Clan and his career. Khetan also likes to sculpt and make pottery, anything that uses his hands in his quiet moments. He is also quite intelligent and a good reader of people, able to determine what they are about.
Weaknesses: Khetan can come off sometimes as cold and a know-it-all. Someone who thinks his word is law and despite asking for advice, usually does what he wants anyway. He doesn't even know he's doing it. Khetan can also be the nosy type and stick his nose in his Clan's member's personal lives. He's not fond of politics and doesn't like mixing with other Lycan groups. He prefers to keep the Shadow Runners Clan to the Shadow Runners Clan and will never ask for outside assistance.

History:
Khetan was born into an upper middle class Indian family who had moved to England. His father was a doctor, his mother an architect. Khetan was a smart boy who spent more time studying. His father wanted him to follow in his foot steps and be a doctor in his small private practice. And that was Khetan's main goal in his life. It took a long time and many years of very hard work during which most time a social life was sacrificed.

When Khetan was 27 his father announced it was time for his arranged marriage. His mother wanted grand children from her eldest and favourite (and most successful) son. Khetan hadn't really had much success with romances or women in his life, having spent most of his time focused on his career. He was sent to India to meet with the woman whom had been chosen for him. He went with a friend who insisted on stopping at one Temple he had been reading about just to see if it was really there. It was the Temple of Karnimata in Bikaner. The Temple of Rats. Khetan went along, since going with what other people wanted him to do was something he did best.

While at the temple, one of the rats bit Khetan on the ankle, then a group of rats attacked him. Khetan woke up in a strange room with a woman standing over him. The woman was not one he recognised. She called herself Kali, informing him he had been attacked by her were-rats. As far as his family were concerned he was missing presumed dead. She'd been watching him for some time now and devised a plan to make him her own. Khetan was completely baffled as to what was going on. Kali explained - she was a Master Vampire with rats to call as her animal. She had her own Clan of were rats that followed her everywhere and she wanted Khetan for one of her blood dolls. His first shift during the next full moon was excruciatingly painful. Khetan spent the next few years with Kali and her were-rat Clan. He soon gained control over his beast, becoming an alpha, but hated the way Kali treated the rats - as pets and toys for her personal amusement. She was a cruel and dominating mistress. Before long, Khetan and some of the other rats set a trap to kill Kali. Once the trap was set and in motion Khetan fled with any of the rats who would go with him. They settled in America in the city of Chicago where Khetan, for freeing the rats was given the position of Rat King. Khetan opened his own medical practice, specialising in lycanthrope treatment.
