Senator of Dahrtag
PHYSICAL INFORMATION
AGE: Young Adult
FORCE SENSITIVE: Untrained Force Sensitive
SPECIES: Shi'ido
APPEARANCE:
McGill's appearance can vary wildly, but the two most common forms he assumes are that of a winged bipedal mothlike creature with orange fur, or a human male with pale skin, green eyes, and red hair. His favorite color is orange; he will frequently seek out orange clothing, accessories, and gear, or he will color them orange himself with paint or dye.
His facial expressions are exaggerated to a comical extent; his voice quivers when speaking (sounds whiny) or he speaks in a very low register (sounds creaky). He seems to go out of his way to unsettle others with unpredictable shifts in mood and demeanor, or by altering his appearance in grotesque ways. Since he does this as a way of frightening and controlling others, it is important to avoid showing surprise, fear, or uncertainty when he undergoes these transformations - it is all simply attention-seeking behavior.
SOCIAL INFORMATION
FULL NAME: Unknown (patient refuses to give full name, may not remember?)
KNOWN ALIAS: "McGill"
OCCUPATION: Mercenary
PERSONALITY: Brash and bitter, the one thing saving McGill from crashing and burning is his sense of humor. His inability to take the galaxy seriously anymore, no matter how much it hurts him, has given him endurance enough to survive anything. But it doesn't mean he can't still be hurt, and that same nasty galaxy keeps coming up with new and exciting ways to inflict pain.
Enslaved to a cruel mistress, McGill still isn't completely sure he's free from her clutches - in a way, he never will be. The "breaking" by the Maw has left him with a fractured personality; one side that is very much aware that something is wrong with him, and another that either doesn't care, or revels in it. He suffers from mood swings and his behavior is unpredictable.
Prior to his breaking, McGill was a gang member turned rebel soldier. He still carries the rebel spirit, and chafes under authority. He can be quite manipulative, but these days he mainly just wants to be left alone.
LOYALTIES: Due to the brainwashing and his mentally unwell state, the patient's loyalties are fractured, shifting, and uncertain. He displays some degree of patriotism with regards to his homeworld, Lao-mon, and perhaps a lingering loyalty to the Mician Clan into which he was born and raised. He was a soldier in the Lao-mon Planetary Defense Forces, otherwise known as the Shi'ido rebel army, but for much of his time in their service, he was actually an unwitting double agent of the Brotherhood of the Maw.

COMBAT INFORMATION
WEAPON OF CHOICE: Explosives
COMBAT FUNCTION: Preferring to go out with a bang, McGill prefers big, loud guns, explosives, and flamethrowers. His aim in combat is to cause as much damage as possible, across as wide a range as possible. Like many Shi'ido, he avoids wearing armor so as not to impair his shapeshifting; as a result, he has a low damage threshold. He can survive even if he loses a few limbs, though at a certain point he will be unable to keep fighting.
TRAITS
S T R E N G T H S
SHAPESHIFTER: McGill is a Shi'ido, a species of shapeshifter with a wide range of malleability. He can mimic the characteristics of other living beings or objects, though he cannot drastically increase or decrease his mass without great effort. This also gives him the ability to regenerate lost limbs and damaged tissue over time.
SOLDIER OF FORTUNE: McGill shows clear signs of having worked as a mercenary, exhibiting numerous skills and training (see Abilities section).
NOMAD: McGill grew up as a member of a tribe of wanderers. He is predisposed to mobility and independence, never content to settle in one place, and also knows how to "disappear" if need be.
W E A K N E S S E S
MENTALLY UNSTABLE: Even after being deprogrammed, McGill has been left with post-traumatic stress disorder and a tangled web of other neuroses. His Mician heritage makes him weak-minded and vulnerable to skilled telepaths.
PYROMANIAC: McGill harbors an unhealthy obsession with fire, explosions, and chaos in general. He has been repeatedly arrested for arson.
HATRED: McGill is most motivated by rage, lashing out violently against all who dare oppose him - even if it would be best to back down.
