Duke
aka Jared — "The Scruffy Mess"
A caracal fursona who's basically a walking disaster: gross, charismatic in a weird way, defensive, and deeply exhausted. Loser older brother energy with a side of feral chaos.
Duke (Jared)
Age: 23
Basic Stats
Appearance & Physical Quirks
Scruffy ears, tired eyes, sharp grin. Always looks half-awake, half-feral. Dark circles permanently etched in, saliva pooling at mouth corners, shaky hands when sober.
- Fingers/arms covered in healed scabs & bite marks
- Chews on random shit without noticing (fingers, sleeves, plastic, paper)
- Smells like tobacco, weed, stale rooms, smoke & cheap soap
- Slouches constantly, hands in pockets, leans on walls like too tired to exist
- Eye contact comes and goes; voice low/soft, laughs through nose
Personality
INFP-T — Feelings everywhere, words nowhere
Blunt, socially off, no filter. Laughs at wrong moments, hates people but gets weirdly attached/jealous/clingy. Oscillates between self-hatred and "i’m hot actually". Dry, trashy, dark humor. Acts mean as defense.
Loser older brother energy — gross but weirdly charismatic. Can’t talk "normally", overthinks then self-sabotages. Sensitive & lonely underneath the feral mess.
"i hate everyone but if you leave i'll be sad about it for weeks"
