Appearance: Lireael is tall and quite imposing on passing glance. He stands at just over 6 feet in height. His skin is a dark brown reflecting his Indian heritage, his hair is also very brown, boarding on black but not quite. Its worn long to just above his shoulders and has a natural curl. His features are strong in his face, his nose is large, his brown eyes are intense, his lips thick. Lireael usually has a day’s stubble, but if he does dress up for fancy occasions, he can look surprisingly elegant.
Dress Style: Comfy and casual is Lireael style. He isn’t really fussed about fashion and his looks are the least important thing in his life. Lireael has no objections to walking around in his boxers rather than getting dressed. He’s usually seen in jeans and t-shirts, or occasionally will wear a shirt.
Marks/Scars/Tattoos: Lireael has a claw mark on the back of his shoulder and a scar on his abdomen where his appendix was removed when he was a child.
Carried Possessions: He carries a small colt.45, and a cell phone.

Personality: Lireael is a fairly easy going guy. He likes to go with the flow, doesn’t like to get mixed up in trouble. He is there for back up should anyone need it. Which makes it easier for him to do his job in the Flock. He can act silently and sneak in unexpected. Lireael takes the word of his leaders or those he knows who has more power than him very seriously and will stand by it no matter what. He knows when to accept outside help, though if reluctantly.
Hobbies: Lireael likes building things, from knick-knack shelves and spice racks, to wardrobes to chairs. He also likes cars, and has spent several years learning to use them. Lireael is also interested in martial arts and martial art weaponry.
Talents: Lireael is an alpha lycan and has complete control over his beast. He is stronger, faster and his senses are shaper than a human. Lireael can hide his aura from other lycans and can also help weaker lycans control their beasts. He can also partially shift is body as well. He has a black belt in karate and is also proficient with samurai swords (though never has a need to use them). Lireael also has an extensive knowledge of building and crafting things from wood. He’s also pretty good with fixing cars.
Weaknesses: Lireael’s main lycanthrope weakness is silver. Lireael can come off as too placid sometimes, he listens a lot and takes his time in making decisions, and that has been said by some to be a weakness. Yet compromisingly, he also has a habit of making snap judgements about people, and once he gets an idea about a person, its usually is very hard to change his mind. Sometimes he can take things too personally and over think a situation more than it needs.

History:
Lireael had a pretty normal upbringing. He was born and raised in a small town in Texas to two Indian parents who had emigrated there a few years ago. His father was a doctor, his mother a housewife. They were generally a happy family. Until in his teens Lireael discovered his father had contracted lycanthropy. His father had had an affair with a nurse in the surgery where he worked, and it turned out she was a lycan. A were -eagle to be exact. Lireael followed her one night and saw her and his father together on the night of a full moon. He watched the girl shift and his father do the same. Lireael was furious. The next day he confronted his father, who categorically denied everything. An argument raged, followed by a physical fight, in which Lireael’s father accidentally partially shifted a hand to a claw and scratched his son. Lireael became infected with lycanthropy. Lireael was furious, but learned to deal with the change after his first full moon. When he was 18 he left home to attend the University of Chicago, where he found a home in the Chicago Flock, and eventually earned himself the position of Gagana.
