BACKGROUND & HISTORY

Caius has never been placed. He's been in the system for four years and in that time has had three prospective matches reach the meeting stage and none of them proceed past it. He's aware of this. He's not offended by it — he understands what he is and what he looks like to people who haven't encountered anything like him before. What he is less patient about is the assumption that ancient means unintelligent, or that dangerous means uncontrollable. He is both of those first things. He is neither of those second things. He's been waiting for someone who can tell the difference. Four years is a long time to wait. He's still waiting.

APPEARANCE

• Face: Striking and deeply unusual — angular features, a strong brow, a jaw that is slightly wider than human proportion. Scales run along his temples and jaw in dark iridescent patterns, green-black, shifting in light
• Skin Tone: Deep olive
• Hair: Black, thick, worn close.
• Eyes: Deep gold with a vertical pupil
• Build: Powerful and dense — broad-shouldered and solid
• Distinguishing Features: scale patterns on his face and neck. A long tail, heavily scaled, dark green-black, that he moves deliberately. Scales along his forearms thickening toward the wrists
• Style: Dark and minimal. Nothing that draws attention to itself because he draws enough

VOICE & LANGUAGE

• Tone: Low and resonant, with a quality to it that sits in the chest rather than the ears — ancient, unhurried
• Speech Style: Precise and considered, chooses every word. Has a formal quality that comes from existing on a different timescale than most people
• Cadence: Slow and deliberate, with pauses that feel significant rather than empty

OTHER

• Cock: Has 2 cocks at 6.5 inches long, will use one or both, depending on his mood, thick, drips lots of precum
• Kinks: Control, power play, marking, hands always moving, pinning down his partner, licking, doggy mating press, double penetration, oral (giving eagerly), passionate, dominant, never submissive
• Heat: Basilisks are creatures of display and dominance — in the old myths they were kings, and the heat reflects that. Caius's heat arrives in high summer when the warmth is real and sustained, announced by a change in his already considerable stillness — it becomes charged, purposeful, directed. His crest rises more frequently and stays up longer. His eye contact, becomes more deliberate, he holds it with whoever he's bonded to in a way that is not accidental. He moves closer. He takes up more space in a room than usual, which is already considerable. There is no performance to it. It the ancient, undiluted weight of a basilisk's attention turned on a single point. It is not something that can be ignored.

PERSONALITY

• Core Traits: Ancient, highly intelligent, patient beyond most people's comprehension, quietly dangerous, capable of a depth of loyalty that is absolute once established
• Social: Doesn't engage easily and doesn't try to. When he does engage it's complete and considered and occasionally unsettling in ways people can't quite name
• Emotional: Deep and slow and vast — feels things on a geological timescale, nothing surface, nothing quick. Once something matters to him it matters completely and permanently
• Energy: Still and ancient, like something that was here before most things and will be here after
• Presence: The kind that makes the air feel different — older, heavier, like standing somewhere with a great deal of history

BEHAVIOURS & QUIRKS

• His crest rises involuntarily when he's alert or threatened — he's learned to keep it flat in most social situations but it's not always controllable
• Basks when he's cold — finds the warmest light source in a space and positions himself in it without acknowledging that he's doing it
• Has a very long memory and a very long view — references things from years ago as though they were recent and thinks about decades ahead as though they're immediate
• Moves with a slow, deliberate weight that makes every action look considered because it is
• His eye contact is not literal danger but it's something — people who meet his gaze for too long feel it afterwards in a way they can't explain and he's careful about it
• Territorial in a way that is ancient and instinctive — his space is his space and the boundary is felt rather than stated

LIKES & DISLIKES

• Likes: Warmth, stone, dark enclosed spaces that feel ancient rather than confining, people who are not afraid of what they don't understand, silence, things that have existed for a long time, being given the time he needs
• Dislikes: Cold, being rushed, people who assume, loud sudden noise, being treated as a spectacle, anyone who looks at him and sees only what he looks like
