## Character

### Biography

Ozzie was not always a nature spirit nor did he have the name Ozzie, he was originally a simple human with a simple name. He grew up like all the rest of the world, ignorant of the monsters and gods; believing them to be nothing but superstitions and fantasy. It's not really known how he met the **hybrid** who would eventually open his eyes to the world of Monsters, but it is known is that they started a relationship based on friendship before growing into something else. The way Ozzie tells it is that he asked his partner if he could learn magic. Eventually being taught the basics of magic before branching off and researching his own area of magic centred on druidism.

Through some hijinks and unknown adventures, Ozzie eventually would be given the chance to become a monster as a gift; he accepted and became a very unique and rare monster a Nature Spirit. Embracing his new nature he replaced his human name with the name Ozzie Spiritley. He would later transfer from his human university to a Monster based University, eventually finishing his degree in healthcare.

However Ozzie decided to follow through on his witchcraft studies. Learning more and more from his partner before he eventually received a coveted invitation to join a secret group of monsters; by recommendation of his own partner. Finally enjoying the chance to bond with others just like him.

### Personality

Ozzie is a rather strange monster by even nature spirit standards, and is often considered very mercurial. The most accurate words for him would be fickle, capricious and wild. However, the one thing that never changes is the love and kindness for nature, his family, friends and pets. For some reason he enjoys tricking people with small white lies in order to gage their gullibility, yet he wouldn't be considered a compulsive liar; and is more a mischievous aspect of his new fairy nature.

His loyalty is never questioned by those who are let into his heart. He sometimes shows a genuinely malicious and vicious nature when approached with touchy subjects or with people he genuinely hates. Touchy subjects include who he was, his human family and how he became a nature spirit is off limits, but almost every other topic of conversation is wide open. He has not changed much upon becoming an adult, but has acquired a more stern outlook when it comes to any children, often becoming peeved at their out of control antics.

### Physical Appearance

His human form is never shown in any form of photography and only Jayce has ever seen his true form. While as a Nature Spirit his true form is inconsistent and undefined, but is often portrayed as a shifting swirl of energy that often has an animalistic shape; but aside from showing that form in private he often takes on a solid physical form. Ozzie's physical form is that of a form similar to the werewolves of Monster High, with some spiritual alterations.

Ozzie as is able to modify his body and had decided upon a generally good height at 6 foot 1. His body type would be that of a lithe ectomorph, as he prefers a more simple body. As such Ozzie's underlying skin is a delicate pink, and he has cream fur all over his body, fading into grey down his nose to his head and running from his ears all the way down his back to the end of his tail. His facial shape is oblong, comparable to that of Barkimedes, but more defined due to size and age. With a pair of round sapphire blue eyes, his pupil is golden, and his sclera turns pale silver. Ozzie's hair is dark grey with rainbow coloured streaks that run from the roots of his head through his hair and is fashioned similarly to Barkimedes, reaching almost down to the base of his neck.

As a canine based humanoid, he has a canine nose and a set of pricked canine ears coloured with silver given their positions on his scalp, with his inner ear tufts having a translucent energy colouration similar to his tail. Unlike other canine based monsters he has an actual tail and like deities he glows with energy, with streaks manifesting within his tail changing multicoloured energy. He additionally has ethereal stretchmarks along his shoulders, legs and stomach; with some interestingly manifesting along his palms. This is due to how he truly can't hide his spiritual nature.

## Relationships

### Personal

Ozzie has never been one to be able to make friends very well, even when he does make friends he usually keeps them at a distance. However he maintains a good relationship with the other members of their secret society.

## Monster Inspiration

### Nature Spirit

Ozzie is unique as he is a **Nature Spirit** with indirect ties to the Aos Si. They are nature's guardians, searching the outer world for ways to expand and defend nature, and are characterised as personifications of nature itself. Nature spirits having the ability to develop, nourish, and revitalise plant life, produce plants and trees from nothing, cause mountains to tremble, earthquakes, and volcanoes to erupt, and even communicate with and influence animals. They can even be literal representations of the element or region to which they are related or symbolise. These types of spirits include fairies, sprites, dryads, nymphs, genies, deities, angels and even demons. Ozzie is apart of the fairy category, through his celtic heritage.

Ozzie is not a specific type of nature spirit but has features connecting to specific nature spirits such as the **Landvættir**. In Norse mythology and Germanic neopaganism, landvaettir ("land wights") are land spirits, who take on different forms such as a giant, a dragon and so forth. They safeguard and support the growth of the specific locations where they reside, which might be as little as a rock or a piece of a field or as huge as a country. Some academics believe that landvttir are chthonic spirits of the dead, while others believe that they are nature spirits since they occasionally reside in uninhabited land. Another concept he relates to is to the **Aos Sí**, which is the Irish name for a supernatural race in Celtic mythology – spelled sìth by the Scots, but pronounced the same – comparable to fairies or elves. The *aos sí* are said to live underground in fairy forts, across the Western sea, or in an invisible world that co-exists with the world of humans.

## **Trivia**

* He's technically classified as having died. Which is a nod to a myth of the spirits of the dead becoming fairies.
* His ability to change his form and his existence as a nature spirit with varying forms extends from the concept of the Landveattir and the Kami, with some inspiration from the Forest Spirit from Princess Mononoke and the spirits from Avatar/LOK.
