{{Tab}}Shane is pretty obviously adapted for aquatic life. He's got gills running down his sides and the sides of his neck, sharp teeth, sharp claws on his webbed fingers and webbed toes. He's built small and streamlined, and a good deal more cartilaginous than most people. | {{Tab}}Shane is pretty obviously adapted for aquatic life.

{{Tab}}Though very bright, Shane has been pretty careless and neglectful with his schooling; it's made his academic knowledge base kind of spotty. When it comes to language, though, he has a ''gift''; he picks up new tongues with ease and his language classes at school have been the one place he cruises through with ease. His native tongue is Vietnamese; in school he's studied Spanish (which he gets plenty of regular practice in, around New York) and Russian (less applicable on a daily basis but kind of a fun challenge.) He's picked up Japanese from [[NPC-Daiki|his boyfriend]], is studying sign language with Dusk, and is starting to acquire bits of French from hanging out with the Tessiers all the time and Thai from Hive. | |||
{{Tab}}Outside of this, he plays violin very well; he studies in school, he studies privately with [[Ryan|Ryan Black]], and has aspirations of turning this into a career some day. | |||
{{Tab}}He is extremely athletic and has gotten a ''lot'' of practice with combat, both from Prometheus and from the cops' [[TP-Thunderdome|fighting ring]] and from his own [[TP-Fight Club|fight club]]. He is on his school's fencing team and rock climbing club and archery club and he enjoys riding, hiking -- and swimming, of course. He's a capable tracker and excellent hunter, with claws and teeth rather than manmade weapons. | |||
{{Tab}}He's also, lately, gotten kind of a bit of practice in the business world since opening his own [[Evolve Cafe|cafe]]. He takes community college classes in business to learn how to run this better but is getting a lot of on the job training. He also makes a mean cup of coffee. | |||

*Volunteers on a Red Cross Disaster Action Team ever since they helped out his apartment building in the wake of [[Logs:We're Good|its bombing]]. Spends a lot of time handling client paperwork because a toothy clawed shark is not ''always'' the most reassuring face to see for people who've just lost their homes. | |||
*As a child, was in the very first batch of mutants taken in when [[TP-Prometheus|Prometheus]] was founded. Actually kind of liked it there when the project first started. | |||
*Has actually died (and been resurrected by a good friend [[XS NPCs|Karrie]]) two times; KIND OF didn't tell his dads about one of these due to a desire to keep them from fretting since in the middle of zombies they had a lot on their plates already. | |||
*Is in the middle of EXPERIMENTING with religion. Not really entirely sure of what his spiritual beliefs are so he's dabbling in immersing himself in ''many'' different religions one after the other. Is starting with things that his family and friends practice, so started off with Shinto and Buddhism and will be moving on to Catholicism shortly. | |||
*Gets the bulk of his (usually rather overdressy) wardrobe from [[NPC-Elias|a respected fashion designer]] who was his ''first'' dad after being freed from Prometheus. | |||
