This is the NEW and UPDATED ref for my fursona, named Potzi Hookman. NOW WITH HAIR and GLASSES! He's not a Hyper (though wouldn't mind being one), but he is a Siberian Tiger/Arctic Wolf hybrid. His feline features show through more than his canine, but I've always liked this mix of features. Remember, folks, tigers and wolves are big creatures.

His head is an interesting shape, since it's a combination of feline and canine aspects, one of the main aspects being canine ears and a slightly distorted muzzle. His muzzle is slightly more elongated and a little narrower than a tiger's, and his snout is a little wider than a tiger's on the end of it. Tiger's snouts don't "cap" their muzzles like wolves' snouts do. So it's a mixture of both. Not shown but worth mentioning, Potzi's tongue is actually canine.


Name: Potzi Hookman
Species: Siberian Tiger/Arctic Wolf Hybrid
Element: Air
Age: Unknown, appears in the 30's, eyes seem much older.
Build: "Athletic", toned. A close inspection would find an extremely dense but somewhat hidden musculature.
Trait: Sizeshifter - Can increase size of entire body to grow as big as needed, however this growth only affects his entire body at once, much to his chagrin, he cannot make specific parts of himself any larger disproportionately.
Resting Height: 10' (not counting ears)
Resting Weight: 612-ish pounds
Orientation: Pan, Demi, prefers femininity- but Must have some kind of affection, trust, with partner.
Gender: Cis Male
Position: Switch
Alignment: Neutral/Chaotic Good
Abilities: Sizeshifter, Puffkisses, Natural Resistance, Enhanced Hearing, Warm Body, Blowback Failsafe, Growth Ripcord.

Natural Resistance: Mental, physical, or metaphysical changes caused by a corrupting force, will generally have diminished effect, unless there is a degree of willingness to said change.

An active ability Potzi has had is the ability to puffkiss; He can "kiss" certain orifices and inflate his target via air with this means. How the inflatee's form is dialated will tend to vary on the part he is kissing or the inflatee's body (choice). With prolonged inflation by this means, the receiving character's body will eventually begin to lose its shape to favor a more spherical one (generally leaving the outer extremities their normal size, such as hands, feet and head. But this can also vary depending on how the inflatee's body is affected by inflation), size not currently having a limit. That is to say that Potzi's puffkiss effects alone will not cause rupture, regardless of pressure and size. This does not account for external dangers. It is worth noting expansion caused by Potzi's puff kiss is not painful, and will increase sensitivity of inflated areas greatly, the larger the affected areas become.

Sizeshifter: Potzi's a grower, not a shower and in more than one way. While in a resting or relaxed state he's about 10' tall, but at will he can cause his entire body to grow. This growth is proportional, and he can only grow larger, he cannot make himself any smaller than his resting size. He has been known to increase his size to better enjoy the growth of his partners, or sometimes just at his partner's behest for him to be even bigger for them. Or sometimes just to have fun, though it never tends to be malicious.

Warm Body: Potzi's body is almost always warm to the touch, that is to say it's -always- warm. Even in the coldest of temperatures while his fur may seem cold and match below freezing, beneath it his body will still provide warmth. This allows him to remain a comfortable operating temperature without extra clothing to protect from cold. Furthermore, he can still offer his body heat to those that hold him close, if need be.

Enhanced Hearing: Potzi's ears are tuned and sensitive. He can hear frequencies seldom heard by most, as well as greater depth of the audible spectrum. He can detect strange or out of the ordinary sounds even at great distances, and quickly discern their direction.

Blowback Failsafe: While not one for popping his puffkiss victims, his body has a built in “defense” for retaliatory inflation effects; And that is when stretched to size/shape larger than his current size and enough outside force through pressure (or pleasure) is applied to the point of bursting, he does not simply “rupture”, but instead in a pop or bang, he is immediately reformed, but only at HALF his -resting- height (10ft.) and every subsequent popping he might undergo reduces the size he reforms at by half. Ie: first pop he ends up 5ft, second pop he’d end up at 2.5ft, ect. Regardless of what size he was starting at during initial pop. He will regrow back to his normal height of 10ft over time, but until then he cannot sizeshift through his own means.

Growth Ripcord: While popping triggers his body to quickly reform smaller, his body has another trigger to make him grow. Pulling on his tail with deliberate force, will cause his body to respond by growing larger, in similar fashion as his size shifting growth. However, unlike his size shifting growth, he cannot reduce any size gained by this method. This size increase will tend to be greater, the harder his tail is pulled beyond the threshold. Once more, this growth can be very disorienting to him, making it difficult to balance, stand up, or concentrate for a few minutes after each spurt of growth. In times of a very drastic growth spurt(very, very, hard /long pulling of his tail, he can be overcome by an extreme arousal and inability to think clearly (or at all) the more drastic the size increase of the spurt, the longer this haze can affect him.
