Name: Driskoll Wyrd
Race: Shifter
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Exploring
Occupation: Bartender at The Final Round
Mode of transportation: a black 2018 Jeep Wrangler
Living situation: has a one bedroom apartment in the attic of the bar with his Bull Terrier named Butcher (photos to be listed later)
Persona: Usually with a hazy air about him and a dreamy faraway glaze in his blue eyes, Driskoll is every bit a daydreamer. He would much rather be fantasizing over what he wants to be doing on his time off than pay attention to where the fuck he is walking. This often has him labeled as "clumsy" which he constantly argues that he isn't, he's simply not paying attention to the present and is too caught up in tomorrow. Even when the blonde argues anything at all there's never a hint of ire or snideness in him. He's just cool as a cucumber like that, up until someone outright disrespects any of his family, friends, or staff. And if there's anyone dumb enough to mistreat an animal in front of Driskoll they'll have one hell of a tank to put up with.

He's dealt with abuse before and is quick to shut that shit down. Due to his past he is a very open-minded individual with a marvelous listening ear paired with a broad shoulder to lean on. Perhaps this is what makes him such a natural bartender at a speak-easy establishment in town, it's his own tranquil charisma that seems to have people just spilling their life story out to him. With Driskoll there's just this way that when he looks at you, you know there's no way he would ever consider anyone as 'bad'. The way he sees it there are choices, desires and circumstances that always play a part. Which is why he still feels guilty about what happened with one of his siblings in the past, but he literally bears the scars for that and tries not to dwell much on history. What's done cannot be reversed.
As a shifter he has a few favored forms; a coyote, a red tailed hawk and a rather blonde grizzly bear. Unexpected perhaps, but he prefers forms that allow him to travel with his little companion, Butcher, in tow. If he can't take his dog then Driskoll doesn't want to go. On late night walks, hikes through the woods or a cave filled with crystals, or just anywhere outside during twilight hours is where the shifter feels the most at home. Growing up he never got much alone time or personal space so he was more than happy to live in the apartment above the bar once Sael bought it up as opposed to in his brother's inherited mansion. So he prefers to make up for that now in his young adult years. Sadly he finds it incredibly difficult to get close to anyone in the romantic sense. The shifter is so fearful of what would happen once they got to know the real him. He can flirt as a bartender for tips but beyond that he doesn't make any serious romantic advances very easily.

Appearance & Style: Photo reference
At 6'0" even, he is rather brawny although not burly like his eldest brother, just the right amount of muscle without looking like a meat-head juggernaut. He spends an even amount of time indoors and out although tans very easily in the summer time which gives him an olive complexion. His beard is grown to a medium-long length, conditioned daily and well groomed. It's the same golden shade as his lion's mane of hair which hangs down a little bit past the shoulders although he has tied up more often than not. Dris is very physically active and it shows in his toned body whether he is in human form or has shifted into another creature. His long fingers make it easy to pluck his guitar as well as find the strength to form a fist to feed to someone hungry for a knuckle sandwich.
He has gauges in both earlobes which are typically decorated with organic jewelry, mainly bone or wood. No matter the weather he is always wearing something to cover his forearms and calves so nobody has ever seen him in a pair of shorts or short sleeved anything. Dris prefers to use his family discount with his brother to have a few things tailored, namely a nice pair of slacks, a formal vest or a more stylish button up for work. He has a strong brow coupled with a patient, bright blue gaze and a rather narrow nose.
His shifts come from his time wandering the Northwest area where he's encountered the wild forms of the aforementioned animals.
