Physical Description

He stands fairly tall, as most of his species would, twin rows of spikes running down from his head to the end of his tail. He has (often messy) short, black hair, which his spikes stick out through on his skull. His frame is well built and in nearly perfect proportion with his height. His body is covered in a swampy green hue of scales; his underbelly scales a rather putrid shade of yellow-green. His wrists have a flame tattoo on each, as well as the part of him that earns his name. In his forearms and wrists are thick metal pikes jabbing in and out of his scales. Between his long clawed fingers and toes are semi-transparent webs, used for swimming.

Common Attire

A custom made pair of knee-lengthed swamp shorts, spiked bondage straps hanging from the legs and belt loops, draped all over his body. He usually wears a torn fishnet shirt littered with leather straps, as well as a hand-made skull shoulder pad set (two skulls on each shoulder and one in the middle of his chest) all, again, connected by leather belts. He wears spiked collars and bracelets quite frequently too.

Personality

Pike is a brutally honest, smug fellow and finds humor in the darker aspects of life regardless of what other's think. He’s in a positive mood most of the time, but watch out if he gets pissed off. Because of his religion, he can get rather violent unintentionally as it’s just his idea of fun. He’s virtually fearless and would never back down from a fight. That said, Pike enjoys a good brawl every now and then…and he may go around looking to start one if the urge is there.

Brief History

Born and raised in Australia, Pike grew up in a large group of alligators. His father was the alpha male, leaving him to be very popular among the other hatchling gators. Throughout his childhood, Pike and his peers were trained by some of the finest swimmers in the Australian regions, leaving Pike to still possess those ultimate swimming skills.

At the age of 17, he left home with a group of roughly thirty or so other adolescent males from his community, and made a dangerous cross of the ocean over into North America. Shortly after arriving on the shores of New Orleans, he had a run in with several Satanic Cultists the night of his arrival. What he saw astounded him, drawing him into the following of Lucifer. After the loss of New Orleans however, Pike has taken to wandering cannels with his 'brethren', seeking a new place to call home.
