the intended base design /
Has the body structure of a wolf, albeit somewhat slimmer, though with eagle-like forelegs, large wings, and two heads; the bottom [main] one resembles a wolf's, and the top one resembles a raven's. Has piercing blue eyes. Covered in black fur and feathers, with a matte black metal prosthetic replacing his right foreleg; it's modelled to match his left foreleg, and is favoured in fights, due to its extra durability. Roughly the size of a lioness, but with hollow bones to enable flight. Exchanges sturdiness for a less weight, and is more delicate than he otherwise would've been.
⇀ Wears a black leather harness.

ISFJ [The Defender]. Gryffindor-Hufflepuff. | Despite his imposing stature, James boasts a surprisingly warm and gentle personality rather than exuding a threatening aura. Is relatively meek and timid when it comes to new people. | Quiet and thoughtful despite possessing a limited vocabulary, which can lead to periods of silence whenever he’s trying to recall a word. | A dutiful, obedient worker with a typically subservient nature, prone to seeking out people with authority almost instinctively. Has a doglike loyalty once attached to somebody. | A talented fighter whose history is steeped in gore and murder, but is nonetheless a usually peaceful soul. Prefers diplomacy to violence, and is slow to strike. | Desperately seeks approval regardless of his anxiety when faced with compliments. Flushes nervously in response to any kind of praise, but flinches helplessly at harsh criticism and cruelty. | Kind, curious and easily amused when relaxed. A hopeless romantic at heart despite his hesitation when it comes to any sort of love. Good with children and animals; surprisingly nurturing and parental.
