Hyperion is a male changeling who perfectly represents the lethal precision expected of one of his people’s elite warriors. Standing just over six feet tall before the height of his long foxlike ears is even considered, he possesses the naturally elongated proportions of his race. His limbs are long and graceful, giving every movement an unnerving fluidity. His skin is a pale cerulean blue, smooth and almost stone-like beneath the dim light of the underground caverns his people call home. Against the cool blue of his face, his markings stand out sharply. Thick black pigmentation stretches across his forehead, covering nearly the entire upper half of his face before tapering into a broad point that descends between his glowing eyes and fades along the bridge of his short muzzle. He also has two dark line markings under each eye. Brilliant crimson eyes glow faintly even in darkness, each centered by a perfectly black, star-shaped pupil. Whether watching a sparring partner or an enemy across the battlefield, those eyes seem to dissect every movement before it happens. Flowing around his face is thick, dark red hair that reaches his shoulders in layered waves. Long bangs spill over one eye while the rest is gathered into two loose braids hanging beside his face, a practical style that keeps his vision clear during combat without sacrificing the traditional appearance valued by his people. His oversized foxlike ears rise prominently above his head, tall and straight with pale cream fur lining the interiors and fluffy tufts protruding from their bases. His short black muzzle ends in a small nose that gives his otherwise humanoid features a distinctly vulpine appearance. Unlike female changelings, his fangs remain relatively modest, only slightly extending past his lips when he speaks. Across his exposed shoulder and upper arm, another unique black marking snakes downward in smooth, branching patterns resembling waves spreading through the sea. Every changeling bears markings unlike any other. Draped over one shoulder is the deep crimson robe of a changeling warrior. The robe marks him as one who has mastered not only combat but also enough discipline to wield his people’s dangerous gift of transformation in battle. Beneath it, his lean frame is built for speed and flexibility rather than brute force. While nearly every changeling can alter their form for a short time, he has trained to maintain transformations under the immense stress of combat. He is determined, serious, smart, and intent, yet in combat he sometimes uses more force than needed due to his need to find his sister, who went missing years ago, and is his mission for leaving his home, to find her.

Changelings are light blue skinned humanoids, that are shapeshifters. They have longer limbs than humans, and average six feet in height not including ears. They have short muzzles. They all have fully red eyes, and black, star shaped pupils, along with deep red hair. They are all born with black markings unique to each changeling. The differences start with their genders, all changelings have darker forehead markings that point downward between their eyes to their muzzles, yet males have more broad and expansive markings where as females have sharper, and less forehead marks. Males also have longer, and taller foxlike ears that point straight up, but females have longer and sharper fangs. They were cloaks, that arnt only for coverage, they play an important role in their culture. Red robes indicate a warrior or soldier, brown robes indicate a civilian with normal, unspecified jobs, purple means royalty, white indicates priests and religious leaders, green means architects, instead of other art forms, changelings rely on their architecture and beautiful cities and statues, and black means miners, due to them being a race living almost entirely underground, miners are incredibly important for trading and building. They can form their bodies into whatever shape they want, yet it takes incredible focus and control, and almost none of them can keep it up for a while, unless a skilled warrior. They are a wealthy race that take pride in their abilities, and have an old rivalry with dwarves, sharing caves with them for thousands of years.
