FIRST CHANGES

| EYES | His eyes are now feline in appearance, resembling the bright blue ones that snow leopards typically have. He's able to see in the dark almost perfectly now and catch movements that most might miss normally. | CLAWS | The bones in his hands reformed into a more feline structure and his nails have turned into claws, leaving him with deadly weapons rather than useful fingers. He also had pads on the palms of his hands like a feline would. | TEETH | He now sports fangs instead of normal human teeth, his jaw having broken and re-situated itself to allow for the new teeth. Rather than a mix of teeth for both tearing meat and crushing plant matter, he's now sporting a mouth full of teeth used only for tearing meat. | FUR | Snow leopard-esque fur now covers his shoulders, down his arms and up his neck a bit, giving him an odd were-being sort of look.

SECOND CHANGES

| WINGS | After a painful experience, Bard now has a pair of large wings that are bat-like in their initial appearance with claw like digits at the top and stretched skin from the shoulder out to the 'shoulder' but then they melt into feathers further down giving it a strange half and half appearance. →The feathered parts of his wings are similar in color to a golden eagle, though to him it reminds him of the Great Eagles back home. | VOICE | His voice has taken on a melodic-hypnotic quality that allows him to lure humans closer, making it easier for him to turn them into his next meal. | WEAKNESS TO COLD | Despite being part snow leopard now, Bard is not in the least bit okay with cold weather anymore. He'll retreat to someplace warm if the temperature begins to drop at all and, should he be caught out in cold weather, will become incredibly weak and sluggish. | HUNTING INSTINCTS | He's now driven to hunt and find himself meat, able to at least calm his urges temporarily by eating animals but the longer he goes without eating a human--without hunting one down himself and killing them--he'll start to lose his self control.

THIRD CHANGES

| TAIL | Another major physical change, Bard now has a large, scorpion like tail that is forked at the end. (Where the stinger is actually attached to the tail, the segment is split and has two stingers/barbs instead of one.) The barbs are poisonous which is quite useful when he's hunting. His tail resembles an emperor scorpion's in color and appearance aside from the duel-barb. | SENSES | It's no longer just his eyesight that has improved exponentially. His sense of smell and his hearing are almost well beyond that of a normal human, making it easy for him to pick up on prey or figure out when someone is trying to sneak up on him. | EARS | To match his feline features, he now has cat like ears that are just as expressive as a feline's would be normally. They sit slightly further up on his head and melt into the fur covering his neck to make them blend in better.

FOURTH CHANGES

| LEGS | Yet another major physical change, Bard's legs have become digitigrade, mimicking the feline that he is modeled after. His feet sport claws now as well as pads on the bottoms, making it easier to him to walk around without anything on them--not that he really needs shoes anymore. | ABILITIES | His abilities to jump and climb are much more feline like now, as is his overall speed. He can easily scale trees or cliffsides if need be without too much trouble and can outrun almost anything he may come across, whether he need to flee or catch them.

FIFTH CHANGES

| FELINE FORM | Bard is now able to transform into a full snow leopard, allowing him to sneak around much easier and move completely silently if he so chooses. This form does make him a much easier target, though, as he no longer has his poisonous tail, wings, etc.

SIXTH CHANGES

| DECEPTIVE NATURE | Contrary to the type of person he normally is, Bard can't help but try to deceive others, finding a sick sort of joy in starting rumors and riling others up. He fights it, as hard as he can, especially when those he cares about are involved but it's no easy task for him and will only get harder the longer he's in Ryslig. | ARMS AND SNOUT | His arms have grown longer to allow him the ability to run on all forms even in his humanoid form. His fur covers down to his hands now and while his hands are still human like, the pads on his palms are more defined and his thumbs have grown smaller. His face has also undergone a change in that his jaw has elongated slightly to become more of a snout that resembles a snow leopard's, fur spreading over his muzzle and up under his eyes and to his ears leaving only patches of human skin at his forehead and along his jawline.

SEVENTH CHANGES

| FOG FORM | Given he's reached the full spread of his changes, his fog form will be complete now as well. There's not longer anything remotely human about him during the fog, his body having full contorted into a quadrupedal state of being. His wings have shifted and become more bat-like during the fog, attaching to his forearms and turning his front paws into more hook like claws you'd see on bat wings. His tail is longer and becomes tri-pronged now, the plating covering it spreading up his back and down his back legs about half way before it melts back into fur. His eyes glow constantly in this state meaning they are normally the first and sometimes only thing one will see of him before they fall victim to his attacks. His fangs become longer, in a saber-toothed cat like manner, and more serrated, making it easier for him to tear people apart. (X) →Due to the events surrounding Plaga's Peak, Bard now has Elven script tattooed down his back in both his forms. The markings are etched into his skin running from the base of his neck, spreading across his shoulders, then swinging back down his spine and onto his tail to the forked end. hese markings are going to speak of the chaos and destruction brought on my Smaug and all the deaths that came with his destruction of Laketown. And if one studies them close enough, they'll realize that the patterning of the scars shapes a dragon's silhouette.

EVENT CHANGES

| MUTATED FORM | Given that Bard is going to end up at the epicenter of the mutations, he's going to through full body changes. He's going to end up forced into something similar to his fog form with the following alterations: His head is going to start bulging from the forehead up and it will look as though a human face is trying to force it's way through no defining features will be visible outside of a gaping mouth and empty eye socks that are covered by the skin of his head. The feline jaw will split as if it was cut open, leaving his tongue lolling out and dripping with venom and blood. Human-like arms will grow from his neck in a weird sort of centaur look though one will be lacking flesh when it break free and much longer than the other that is more shriveled and useless. His winged-arms will keep their same position but the clawed digit at the end of each will split up as human fingers force their way through the broken skin. Most of the flesh connecting the joints of his wings will be charred away, leaving behind the very bones themselves with torn and bloody flesh clinging to them. His hind legs will start to bulge and seem to start tearing open as something tries to push free in various spots, rendering his hind legs useless as the muscles tear, leaving him having to drag himself with his four forelimbs--well, three since one is useless. His tail will end up splitting apart to reveal a long, serpent like appendage in the mass of shredded scorpion shell/flesh, the new tail having no skin, leaving the muscles open to the elements. The Elven script that he has tattooed down his back will mutate into blisters that, if burst, will spew acidic puss.
