The Beast (Adam)

In human terms, he is 20 years old, almost 21, but now that Adam has the appearance of the Beast, he looks older, 30 or 40 years old, his appearance as a monster is a very massive shaggy creature, probably a chimera, he has very massive front limbs and a rib cage, and his hind legs are much smaller, his anatomy is capable of moving both on two limbs and on all fours, so his front legs are just very similar to hands, although clawed and with pads, and as is typical of rootworms, he looks like a mixture of features of some creatures, so he has a massive head, intermediate between a big cat and a bison, eyebrows similar to gorilla eyebrows, the nose is also of a big cat with a hump, the lower jaw is very massive and slightly protruding forward and the lower fangs stick out from under the lips and are generally very large like a boar's, on his chin there is something similar to a goat's shaggy beard, he has not long, twisted horns with sharp ends sticking up, and ears a bit like sheep's, and a muscular and slightly long neck but this is not noticeable because he has a lot of fur on his neck and a hump similar to the hump of a bison, all four limbs have claws and muscles like those of a vertebrate predator, although the front paws are stronger and more massive than those of a snow leopard, but the hind paws are not weak either, similar to those of a wolf or a large cat, a wolf's tail, and all the fur in general is golden brown, very shaggy and a little unkempt, on the muzzle there are light brown areas on the nose, on the eyebrows and a little on the beard, around the eyes and cheekbones the fur is dark brown, the eyes are blue and probably the only ones that remind that he was once a human, on the neck and hump he has the most fur and it lies on it like a mane, and from the back of the head to the crest and Along the spine runs a dark brown strip of fur, which is unknown to the genitals, most likely also similar to a large cat or dog, in a calm state they are invisible due to the thick fur on the groin. Its height on all fours to the withers is about 160 cm, and on its hind legs it is about 220 cm although it slouches so its head is pushed forward and its comb is slightly higher.

Even though Adam is so furry, he still wears the same clothes as before, although all the clothes are tight, uncomfortable, and annoying for him. He only wears dark blue pants and a wine-red robe that fastens on his chest with a fibula, probably the only thing he is comfortable in and doesn't restrict his animal movements.

It is difficult to say anything about Adam's character from the past, it is only known that he was quite cynical and selfish, although he was still very young, which led to him being punished with a curse, with age he probably changed a little, because he spent almost 10 years alone in his castle, only with his servants, and now that he is 20 years old, he still finds it noticeably difficult to communicate with others, it is difficult for him to control himself, he is rude, irritable and sometimes childishly naughty, because he is very bad at communicating and he knows it. If you give him time or at least ignore his appearance, he behaves even softer and learns to communicate equally and honestly with others, although it is very noticeable that he is still a teenager who was simply imprisoned in the body of a monster and was not taught anything, but this was partly a lesson, so that he himself would start to learn and change and not be naughty and reject people.

Over so many years of solitude, he has really developed a lot of animal habits and has become unaccustomed to communication. If he strains and remembers at least some etiquette, he will certainly be able to control his animal side, but he really has a hard time with some aspects, at the table and in places where accuracy or fine motor skills are required, because his oversized fingers with claws have a hard time coping with this, and he also moves both on all fours and on his two hind legs, his physique is convenient for both options, and it depends more on the situation. He often gets irritated and almost naughty, sometimes even over trifles, because when he does not understand the actions or logic of another person, he will first explode emotionally, and only then will he start thinking about it, and at least over time, when he understands the person next to him better, he controls himself much better and acts more maturely, although his courtiers almost always advise him something, because almost all of them are adult "people" and have known Adam himself for many years, so they know his character and habits perfectly and know where to help. Without the help of his servants, he is even a little indecisive and very embarrassed, besides the fact that he will diligently try to behave rudely or calmly as usual, he is still very ashamed of his beastly appearance, his own actions and especially when he likes another person, and he does not know how to express his feelings in any way, so at first he can be very cautious, aloof and embarrassed when communicating, at first he will not let himself be touched or will avoid being too frank, he can sulk or demonstratively turn away like a big offended dog. Alam still does not know how to read normally, of course he learned this when he was little, but he must have been naughty a lot, and after the curse he did not take books at all, he knows the letters but just reading is difficult for him and in syllables.

According to the story of the curse of this castle, the young handsome prince who lived here was turned into a monster by a witch, because this beautiful witch turned into an old woman and asked for shelter in the castle of the selfish, impudent prince, offering only a rose as payment, but the young prince only laughed and drove her away. The witch had in mind a lesson that appearances can be deceptive, and having become beautiful again, the witch turned the prince into a Beast as punishment, and enchanted the entire castle and the courtiers with him, so all the servants of the castle became some kind of household items or furniture of the castle, and if the prince does not correct himself and does not force someone to love him for his monster appearance by the time he is twenty-one, then he and all the enchanted servants will forever remain with the curse, and all this time is counted by this same rose, because it will wither as soon as the Beast turns 21. No one has been to their castle for a long time, so from the outside you could say that the castle is abandoned, but from the inside it is absolutely well-groomed and clean because the courtiers have nothing else to do and they just do their job as usual, even if it's for no one, because the Beast himself is quite rude to them or doesn't interfere with the cleanliness of the castle, and despite the fact that there are a lot of them there, the enchanted courtiers can get lonely even when they all communicate with each other all the time, so no guests have been to the castle for almost 10 years and there was no chance that the spell would be lifted.
