Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lord Tarran" data-source="post: 2563854">The werewolf comes up, unheard, and sits down in the wagon next to Seth, facing the Mortif. I offered my aid to your studies, so here goes. I am a Veran, of the order Veri. Veri are a special breed if you will of lycanthrope. We are inherently more powerful than our normal cousins, most of our powers passing between our animal forms and human forms. There are three species of Veran, the Urver, which are bear sized, not to be confused with the Verur, or werebears, the Luvyrver, which we also call fastwolf, which are the closest to normal werewolves, and the True Veran as we are called, who have the ability to take both Urver and Luvyrver forms.I am a true Veran. In addition to the normal abilities of lycanthropes, we may take complete control of creatures even remotely related to us, and have a special affluency for druidic magic. Also, we have an unique ability, related to our guardianship. Upon the slaying of a being, we gain the ability to bypass their immunities, should we meet another creature of the sort. This spreads throughout species, such as the tanar'ri, the qlippoth, and the baatezu. We also gain certain abilities, depending on what we kill. Though, we are gifted with physical strength and mental capacities that put normal werebeast to shame, each one of us is different, depending on our kills. Would you like to know what I have absorbed?The mortif gives no sign either yes or no, so Tarran continues I, as I told you, slew a Balor at a very young age. The absorbtion of that much power, so quickly, brought me to adulthood in wolf form, while my human body was about, I'll say about 10. As you can imagine, suddenly being able to bypass the immunities and most defensive capabilities of Tanar'ri made me rightly feared in my area. I killed my first vampire, a fledgling, a month later. Saved me a lot of trouble when I fought my towns Master later that year. I can take on imps unhindered, killed one a while back when his master , he was a familiar, decided to try to raise the vampire I killed. My first baatezu was a osyluth that I took when my human body was eighteen. I killed a fellow true Veran, who had been corrupted a few years back, and a Verrati, a wererat too. I haven't had to kill a werebear yet, and I'm not sure if my other lycanthropic kills will allow me to deal with them. Same with weretigers, and most other werebeasts. Also, on the special ability front, I have a teleport ability, thanks to all the outsiders I've slain, but it knocks the wind out of me, so I don't often use it. I can read emotions and such with just a whiff of the air thanks to the slaying of a enchantress vampire a few years back. I can suck life out of others thanks to the years of slaying vampire. My years of killing wielders of the arcane has given me limited access to sorcery, also which I only use in the most dire need. All the outsiders I have taken have given me a small resistance to pretty much all the elements, and a troll I knocked off sometime ago gave me quite a bit of regernerative powers. I, also, destoy any undead weaker than me within I'd say 30ft thanks to the Demon Prince of Vampires, Taatsael. I can supress it, but it wasn't supressed when I entered the tavern, so I suprised was when you didn't explode. I'm glad that you aren't full undead, but even if you were, I have a feeling that you are at least equal with me, and wouldn't have turned to dust. A lich tried to kill me once, I took him in about three seconds. He was kinda new, and had never taken a Veran on before. He thinks for a moment, trying to figure if he missed anything. He has an ah yes look on his face for a moment, before continuing. My increased speed, power, and general strength comes from my training, all my fighting, and somewhat, but only just barely from all the creatures I have taken down. My most recent kill was actually a long time battle, for years on end. A demon, who was trying to conquer the layer of the Abyss I freed from Taatsael. He was the only creature to ever really have me defeated. I had lost before, but ussually it was to retreat and fight another day. Not the case with this demon. He actually killed me. I was lucky, we were in my homeglade, and my actual brother, Amaru, brought me back to life. The two of us fought several more times, all times neither of us really won, because we kept coming back. Annoyingly, it seems that he was immune to my ability to take down a demon on this plane, not send him back to the abyss. Eventually, I tracked him down on the howling threshhold, right before he took the gate down to Taatsael's old realm. In a battle that dragged on forever in my opinion, I finally dropped him. Now I can bypass just about anything a Tanar'ri can throw at me.He sees a curious loook being shot at him from Xavim. Oh yes, and the demon, the one that has given me all my psychic abilites, was a Cerebilith. It's kinda funny. We fought for years, and we never learned each others names. He was one hell of an opponent. Tarran gets up, walking over to the Urver out front, whispering something in druidic. He comes back, viewing his companions, waiting for what was to happen next. He was tense, ready to spring at any moment, depending on the actions of the others. He kept his senses sharp, detecting all emotions.</blockquote>
