			Chaotic neutral | Shapeshifter Taker was born because of a magic anomaly in a "dark" pocket dimension, that inadvertently acted as an energy vacuum and tapped into the energy of the livings into our reality. When the process was reversed in the early 2000s, leaving the creatures inside the pocket dimension almost lifeless and in a vegetative state, he managed to escape, but his first attempt to rebel and get revenge for what happened ended almost with his violent death. He was saved by the cat familiar Regina, that decided to tie herself to him with a magic bond, rescuing him from a horrible fate (using also a bit of dark and forbidden magic, but, well... she's a cat, she doesn't know prohibitions). He took years to fully recover, but in the end, he did. Together they plotted revenge, but his plans were trash and never worked. In 2018 finally, Regina took over the planning duty, which was a surprisingly good idea. The same year Taker met Anita in "dog" form, after being captured as a problematic stray. She was the first human to defend him and be kind to him, and Taker was so impressed that decided to not reveal his true identity to spend more time with her. Anita continued to fight for him and put herself on the line to protect him even when she knew more things about his past, and when the Dark Minister came to erase the "anomaly" she faced him to shield Taker. She took Taker and Regina in as her pets, and, while Regina keeps on her villain career, Taker has happily thrown out of the window his troubled past and is now more than content to just be Anita's loyal dog.   Style notes: He actually dyes his hair and beard, which is usually dark bronze in color. This becomes particularly evident in his feral form since the rest of his fur is of course undyed. When he passes a long time in his "wolf" (although he's more similar to a big, terrifying dog) form he doesn't change his fur color, letting it slowly return to its original hue. Both of his arms are covered in tattoos representing unsettling figures, and he has an earring at his right ear.   Trivia He tecnichally never had a childhood, since he was born as a fully-formed adult because of the peculiar circumstances of his creation. Part of what keeps him together is dark magic, after being badly maimed by Sara Barker. If for one reason or the other that darkness was removed from him, he would fall apart and probably die permanently. However, he's come back to life way weaker from his near death experience. As an ultradimensional creature (albeit it's a small pocket dimension originating from ours), it's not so obvious what species should he be classified as. His body seems to act and react like a lycanthrope's one would to most stimuli, though, so if he needs to be classified as something, lycan will do.
