Name: Spartacus
Species: cat (short hair)
Gender: male
Character type: main
Appearance: Spartacus has black fur with red circles around his eyes, red lines trail from the outer corners of his eyes. His eye color is a yellowish gold. Spartacus does NOT wear a collar, instead he has a gold arm band around his wrist that has his info. His armband also has a ying yang symbol. Also whenever he goes super rage his eyes turn blood red.
Personality: Spartacus is usually barely calm, bordering on explosive rage. When he's not angry, he is trying to contain his rage anyway he can; this includes playing outside, pulling pranks, doing randomly dangerous things, and watching fire. (it calms him for some reason) When he IS in a rage he won't become calm again until he has caused an obscene amount of pain, or someone holds him back for an extended period.
History: Spartacus was kicked out of his last neighborhood because he shaved off all the hair of 5 poodles in one night. His violence has gotten him into a lot of trouble, also his various methods of containing his rage also get him in trouble.
Other: Spartacus tends to surround himself with odd friends that you wouldn't think would be possible, such a Ghast the mouse.
S.P.E.C.I.A.L.
Strength: 8
Perception: 5
Endurance: 7
Charisma: 4
Intelligence: 6
Agility: 7
Luck: 5
Note: while in a rage his intelligence goes down to around 1ish while his strength and endurance go up to ten each
Any better?
I have something of an issue with Spartacus.
First, the "fits of rage" are a minor concern. Nothing real serious, I just don't want every trip to the park to have a high risk of turning into a battle with The Incredable Hulk, if you know what I mean.
My biggest problem is this

This is, quite frankly, scary to me.
Yes, previously, all of our characters had a battle royale with foam weapons. Yes, my character, Ruby, often threatens violence to make sure she is heard. And yes, there are other sides to Sparticus. But "an obcene amount of pain" personally, brings to mind breaking bones and unhappy times all around, not 'slapstick violence'.
The main point of RPing is to have fun, and that part just seems rather dark to me. "Fits of rage", I can deal with, so long as the "violent" part is removed. Having all the pets sent to the vet just doesn't sound fun.
