PERSONALITY	Okay so here's the deal with Ralph here, he's a fairly nice guy that tries to be nice to everyone and not upset or hurt others. However he is part animal and unfortunately those animal instincts are stronger and more dominant than his human ones. Generally Ralph is a nice guy, he's not overly friendly and probably won't start a conversation but he's not particularly hostile either. However with regards to Ralph, staff are warned that he's not left to long in a room with another male as he then seeks dominance and will inevitably start a fight that can't be broken up until a clear winner is established, he hates when people challenge him. Also this becomes an issue when Males and Females are mixed as his instincts take over again. Ralph is stoic and doesn't really show many emotions so he comes across as cold and gruff. He's snarky and sarcastic to most though. His Wolf instincts also make him incredibley impulsive as he will do something before his human common sense slaps him in the head. He's incredibley possessive and territorial, you can't go into his dorm room without his say so and the people he considers friends are fiercely protected like an Alpha protects his pack. Ralph has a pack mentality and it the worst thing in the world for him to be left alone, isolated from people. His instincts are also incredibley amusing, if you toss a ball he will bring it back to you, if you have a laser pointer he's going to try and kill the red dot. He's got his own agenda and likes to do his own thing, unless you prove yourself to be the Alpha more than likely he will ignore you. He's hard work but worth the effort because he is fiercely loyal and will stick by you through anything.

THE HOUSE THAT BUILT ME

MOTHER	Maria Louise O'Connor - 42 - Nurse - "My relationship with my mother is rocky, she couldn't accept me as I am and pretty much threw me out when I growled at her"
FATHER	Luke Matthew O'Connor - 44 - Ex-Surgeon - "Me and my father aren't friends, is was a small, quiet child and he wanted a solider. He wasn't a very good Alpha and hated that I wanted to take that position from him."
SIBLINGS	Adriana O'Connor - 16 - Student -SISTER - "I must protect this cub, she may have the same gene as me but I am her big brother."

HISTORY

Early Years Ralph Jethro Alexander O'Connor was the first child born to Maria and Luke O'Connell. He was born way to early and his first few days in the world were touch and go. He pulled through but remained a sickly child, two years later his sister followed although she was born two weeks late. Ralph was five when his father lost his job due to a scandal that dragged the O'Connell name through the mud. His father turned to alcohol leaving his mother to care for two young children and pay the bills. Ralph and his sister found school difficult, Ralph was a sickly child and often the target of bullies, he did however protect his sister from the bullies and paved the way for her to have an easier school life. The family were living off the low wages of his mother, his father drank a lot of the money away and while his mother made sure the kids were fed and had a roof over their heads the kids often went to school in clothes from two years before and hand me downs. This of course was fine until the children hit growth spurts and just grew up to fast. Ralph was also a glasses wearing, bracefaced, asthmatic so school was tough. Manifestation Ralph's power started manifesting itself slowly at first, he woke up one morning and could smell his the alcohol on his Dad's breath from his own room. Gradually it developed, it started slowly at first so much so that the didn't even notice what was going on. Sure it was weird that he hadn't had an asthma attack in months and that his entire mouth was really sore even once his braces were removed but he thought nothing of it. Even when his sideburns grew in really fast he thought nothing of it. It all came to a head one day when he was at school when he was 14. He heard a the footsteps of every pupil in the school at once, he could smell the fear in the younger students, the nerves of the students doing tests, he could feel it too. The bright lights buzzed in his ears and was to bright for his eyes, he went to the nurse because the sensory overload had given him a severe headache and he felt dizzy. When he reached the nurses office his mouth started bleeding as large incisors and canines cut through. He them promptly passed out. He woke up at home, his mother knew exactly what was going on and she told him that he couldn't stay at the house. He was effectively homeless for a week until he was picked up by someone from Ashford.

ALL THE SMALL THINGS

POWER	Animal Morphing (Wolf)
POWER DESCRIPTION	Ralph's powers are actually that of Animal Morphing but he has yet to actually fully morph so it seems like its mere mimicry. Currently his abilitys mean he has heightened senses, sight, hearing and scent.He also is highly sensitive to emotions and feelings (you've guessed it, yes be can smell fear). His powers are in the process of development and he's soon going to do the full morph. He's obviously very hairy from the power and he's also got many Wolf like quirks for example he will fight to gain dominance and if you win he is submissive. He sleeps curled up and will chase a ball if thrown to him. Another note is that Ralph is a carnivore and he eats ten times more than any eighteen year old does, he won't eat vegetables willingly. Also he's not allowed to have raw meat even slightly undercooked beacause it risks making him feral. He's also stronger than most eighteen years old and fitter with sharper reflexes but he's fairly easy to defeat when necessary, tranquilizers work very well.
SPECIAL ITEMS	His boots, they are special for no other reason than they are extremely comfortable. He's also got leather bracelets he wears on his right wrist. Sometimes he can be see wearing earphones although he doesn't listen to anything they just drown out everything else..
