Name: Colin

Appearance: Colin is a scrawny man with fully pale skin, messy brown hair, and bright blue eyes. He stands at 5'9" and wears only a pair of harmless dark latex shorts.

Personality: Colin tends to act neutral when he can communicate with others, but he is mostly violent toward nearly any latex creature that poses a threat. He ruthlessly exterminates any hostile latex beings that cross his path, sparing only humans and a few known latex allies like Puro and Dr. K.

Abilities: Colin possesses enhanced strength, speed, reflexes, and endurance. Enabling him to break through thin metal doors with just a few hits and also block and/or dodge attacks by jumping out of the way. He is capable of fending off multiple latex creatures simultaneously and even has the potential to seriously injure or possibly take down behemoth-sized latex beings.

Current Equipment: Metal Pipe. Benelli M4 Semi-Automatic 6-Round Shotgun.

History Background: Before the "Doomsday Event," when the Pale Virus decimated humanity, Colin was kidnapped by unknown figures and taken away in a van. He became an unwilling test subject for the Thunder Science Company (TSC) about five to six years ago. After being placed in cryogenic stasis for five years, he awakens in a room that he vaguely recognizes. Despite the long sleep, Colin somehow retains thousands of memories involving repeated assimilation and transfurring experiences. Feeling an overwhelming exhaustion mixed with a sudden surge of power, he instinctively understands his surroundings and resolves to escape by brute force, no matter the cost. Now, in the present day, Colin fights his way through the TSC facility, exterminating any latex creatures that try to transfur him. Even with the Pale Virus still active within his body granting him enhanced physical abilities but threatening his life. His only goal remains clear which is to survive and escape the nightmare he was forced into.

Additional Information: TSC: The Thunder Science Company (Also known as ‘TSC’) is a research company that is known for attempting to create a cure for the Pale Virus by creating latex samples that alters the human genetic code. The TSC research halted its experimentation due to lack of funds and personnel that were affected from the riots and/or Pale Virus outbreak.

TSS: The Thunder Science Security (also known as ‘TSS’) is the security branch of the Thunder Science Company. The Thunder Science Security is made to deal with internal threats such as experimental breaches from latexes and external threats from outside forces within the Thunder Science Company to protect valuable research assets. Thunder Science Security personnel usually wear black and blue uniforms that were equipped with both melee and ranged voltage weapons. During the riots, the Thunder Science Security forces may have been overwhelmed.

Puro: Puro is known to be a friend unlike all other dark latex creatures as Puro is self-aware who also has the ability to communicate with him. Puro is also known as his companion.

Dr. K: Although Colin is skeptical and hates Dr. K for what he has done, he’s also the only one that could help him getting cured by the Pale Virus. He is still left undecided as he is required to choose either by being a latex being with self-consciousness or a human who would inevitably die by the virus.

Pale Virus: The pale virus has a long incubation period until symptoms begin to show in late stages, although by then it is probably already too late. The virus is highly communicable and can be spread via airborne or through bodily fluids. Animals, while not affected by the virus, act as deadly carriers for this disease. It is said to perfectly exploit the weaknesses of human genes and kills them by causing a form of extreme sickle cell disease, preventing oxygen from being transported, causing symptoms such as exhaustion and paleness. Somehow, Colin’s symptoms has gotten reversed with the exception of the paleness of his skin as he is less exhausted than normal and unusually more stronger. He would still die if left uncured as it would disrupt his health condition.

Dark Latex: These creatures appear different from each other. Males have a different body; females have a different mask and tail; and cubs resemble small dogs. There are also dragon-like ones, the Yufeng dragons, which have wings and black horns. Puro and Dragon King also belong to their species (Dragon King being solid, however). They do have some similar traits, such as white masks, black bodies, and white eyes. Another part of the species consists of gray-furred wolves bearing red crystals, commonly called Crystal Wolves. Similar to the Crystal Wolves, Colin can be transfurred into a Bei Feng, a dark blue dragon with yellow eyes and hair, by touching a crystal. The Crystal Wolves's crystals are red, while the Bei Fengs are green. Both the wolves and the Bei Feng lack the mask of their relatives and their gooey properties, making them non-latex creatures. There is also a Dark Latex Ecosystem which contains bacteriophages and the Wendigo. The bacteriophages are harmless if left alone. The Wendigo appears to be a more powerful dark latex, having a blue mask, along with being able to manipulate her environment, sending macrophages and blood cells after prey to transfur or consume them. The bloodcell can mutate into a Light Latex.

Light Latex: After the Dark Latex Creatures were deemed a "failure", the scientists carried on with their experiments, in the hopes of making a latex that wouldn't merge the host's mind to its own. Eventually, they were able to mutate the dark latex to the point where they had no crystalline nucleus, and their bodies were completely white. However, these latexes were also massive failures like their dark latex counterparts. Scientists took note that the light-latex beasts were rapidly evolving from the lab animals they infused into their design, nicknaming them "variegated-latex beasts". They had far more diverse designs and colors than most light latex creatures. Despite this, the "variegated-latex beasts" still do fall under the Light/White Latex umbrella. Unlike dark latex creatures, as previously mentioned, they have no solid core or crystalline nucleus (aka, the dark latex mask). This allows them to squeeze into any small hole, gap, or crack without trouble. However, this also means that they can be flushed down the drain. Light latex creatures start off as blobs, rather than the crystalline structures the dark latex creatures originate from. They are shown in a set of pictures to be capable of combining information from two sources in their "pudding" form to change their form (this also meaning they have a sense of sight in their "pudding" form). In the pictures themselves, the two sources were a woman and a goat on two different TV sets, which were combined to create Yuin. Compared to their dark "cousins", Light Latex beasts don't follow "a set of rules", meaning that they can and will transfur anybody they deem a proper host without any warning. The pure white latexes, however, are in a hive mind similar to the Dark latex creatures. Most have animal-like intelligence though, behaving far more independently and actively chasing humans on sight. Those hunters, unlike the latex in a collective, can assimilate many humans inside their bodies. Because they will assimilate or 'transfur' any living being, the health or strength of their prey is irrelevant to them compared to their older dark-latex "cousins".
