Lightly Tanned
| Body Markings | “Ha! Too many to count, so good friggin' luck with that!”
Scars cover most of Seth's body; Cuts, scratches, burn-marks. His left arm has been tattooed with a black spike-chains that wrap around his entire left limb.
| Physical Description | “Skeletal athlete, if that makes any damn kind of sense.”
Seth is by no means rough. He's average, or that is what he likes to think. It wouldn't be too difficult to pick the man out of a crowd, though, considering his tall and lean athletic body does make him stick out like a sore thumb. His hair is always in that same, boring bed-waking style; Meaning that it is always messy and sprouts out at every angle imaginable. Seth's weirdly-coloured eyes have that lazy-bore stare to it, like his mind constantly wanders to different things and can't seem to focus.
Smoking - A bad habit that is easily picked up, but harder to let go. Seth is rarely without a cigarette, which probably makes him a chain smoker. Hell, what does he care? It won't kill him.
Pyromaniac - Seth found that he needs something to play with when partaking or listening in on a conversation, and what better to toy with than the lighter that's always trapped within his grasp?
Scratching - Seth is prone to scratching objects with his nails, as weird as that may sound. Tables, walls, anything really. It is a perfect indication when he is nervous, agitated or simply riding a train of thoughts.
| Likes | “Like the true ruffian that I am.”
Smoking,
Drinking,
Taking a nap,
Rain/Snow,
Brawling
| Dislikes | “Yes I have a damn right to piss on things, especially stuff that irks me to no end!”
Assholes,
Cats,
Children,
Loud Noises,
Bodies of water
| Fears | “Bah! I do not fear anything!”
Loud Noises - Specifically: Things that go 'Kaboom!'. Probably one of his animal instincts. Really, Seth practically flinches when that sound reaches his ears.
Water - No, do not expect Seth to cower at the sight of it, nor flip when merely a drop of liquid touches him. Just, drowning and all that nasty stuff.
Berserk - Well, fear. More or less a large hatred. He is in control, dammit! There is no fucking need for animal instincts to start kicking in when in danger, Seth is perfectly capable of fighting with a sane mind.
| Strengths | “Raw, powerful strength. Fuckin' peachy, and with a scorching ability to match.”
Inhuman Physicality - Even in his human vessel, Seth still retains the immense strength, speed and reflexes of his demon-self. His raw power practically equals that of a grown athlete, and his speed and reflexes are beyond humanly possible. Seth also appears to be able to climb surfaces that a human couldn't possibly climb onto without some external assistance.
Dog Sense - Being a Hell-hound, Seth's senses equal that of the average dog. He is able to hear well over a human's frequency, and could sniff out his prey with ease.
Pyromancer - Seth has minor control over the element of fire, able to shape and guide it however he wishes. Seth has just recently unlocked this ability, and isn't as skilled with the flames as he much as he wants to be. (Hence the burn marks covering his body.)
Savage Weaponry - The ability to grow fangs and claws when the moment arises. Seth grows out his nails on both his hands and feet, and his teeth shape to sharp fangs that could shred any mortal to pieces.
| Weaknesses | “Curse my species, damned uncontrollable rage.”
Fury of the Hellhound - An animal instinct that kicks in when Seth is in grave danger. This can range from being injured, or merely knowing that his sane mind is unable to handle an opponent who is clearly stronger than he is.
Muscle Brain - While not drooling at the simplest of Math problems, Seth still isn't very good at planning ahead. Really, he doesn't go further than; Charge, and shred whoever is in his way to pieces. It makes him very predictable.
| Personality | “Most call me savage, but they don't live long after claiming that.”
Overall silent and calm, even if his vocabulary and body language tells you differently. Basically, you'd be labelling Seth as your local asshole, that one guy who pisses on everyone he sees and acts like he doesn't give one shit about your day. He is straight to the point, direct, and doesn't play games or dance around issues. The man is clear in his opinions, and has no hesitation whatsoever to vocalize them in any way possible.
While Seth retains a façade of calmness and tranquillity, I assure you that he is not. Sure, he doesn't share the same savage, brainless demeanour that his kin seems to have, but the fact that he has a fair bit of control over his raw power makes him that much more dangerous. He may not attack every human on sight, but when he has chosen his prey, Seth won't let go until it has been shred to umpteen, unrecognisable pieces.
There is no clear motivation for Seth's behaviour. He would claim it is mere instinct, but the actual truth is that instinct doesn't kick in until his sane mind is unable to handle the situation. As said before, the Hound doesn't fully share the mere savagery that drives others of his kind to kill. Seth actually picks his meals very carefully, and most involve those who are thorns in the weak society they live in. (Criminals, homeless and the like.) Still, you shouldn't find it too uncommon that innocent civilians are on his plate; Seth isn't fully in control, after all.

| History | “Ancient history, just fuckin' leave it at that.”
|The Hound|
Tales tell of the rabid hound that ravaged the mortal realm, leaving chaos, panic and destruction where it went. Seth was one such demon, well-known for his relentless killing instinct and manner of feeding. Hounds do not simply suck out a mortal's soul, they completely devour spirit and body alike, leaving little more than puddles of blood that drips from their fearsome fangs and claws.
Seth went through the same process; Ravaging the human world, always hungry, always willing to kill. Towns would be massacred, leaving no living being out of his savage instincts. He made quite the name, and it wasn't long until those with power decided to put an end to the Hound's killing spree. Reapers found and fought with him, mortally wounding the then savage hound, and forcing him to do the one impossible thing... Taking refuge in a human vessel.
|The Human|
Gravely injured and sapped from his strength, Seth could only transfer part of his being into a human, literally intruding into an unborn human and taking the body as his own. Seth believed that, with nine months passing, his strength would return, and the human vessel could be shattered. But, something had gone awry: Seth hadn't calculated the possibility of a human life influencing his demonic mind.
No longer was he the savage beast that he was before the refuge, it was as if the human brain had partially locked down the animal that was Hound. Forced to endure a human upbringing, the years of walking the mortal realm as something he hunted changed Seth, he gained more control and could actually choose his victims. Over the course of many years, those victims became what human society called 'weak': Criminals, homeless people, corrupt civilians.
Seth slowly regains more and more of his power, and the more he unlocks, the less control he has over the savage Hound. It is one of the reasons why he has cut most social ties, apart from his mother and sister.
